Short-term capital gains on the transfer of listed debentures, where debentures are held for a period of not more than 12 months would be taxed at the normal rates of tax in accordance with and subject to the provision of the I.T. Act. The provisions related to minimum amount not chargeable to tax, surcharge and education cess described at para 3 above would also apply to such short-term capital gains. 5. In case the debentures are held as stock in trade, the income on transfer of debentures would be taxed as business income or loss in accordance with and subject to the provisions of the I.T. Act. (i) Under section 54 EC of the Act and subject to the conditions and to the extent specified therein, long term capital gains arising to the bondholders on transfer of their bonds in the company shall not be chargeable to tax to the extent such capital gains are invested in certain notified bonds within six months from the date of transfer. If only part of the capital gain is so invested, the exemption shall be proportionately reduced. However, if the said notified bonds are transferred or converted into money within a period of three years from their date of acquisition, the amount of capital gains exempted earlier would become chargeable to tax as long term capital gains in the year in which the bonds are transferred or converted into money. Where the benefit of section 54EC of the Act has been availed of on investments in the notified bonds, a deduction from the income with reference to such cost shall not be allowed under section 80 C of the Act.

If part of such net sales consideration is invested within the prescribed period in a residential house, then such gains would be chargeable to tax on a proportionate basis. Provided that the said bondholder should not own more than one residential house at the time of such transfer. If the residential house in which the investment has been made is transferred within a period of three years from the date of its purchase or construction, the amount

20

of capital gains tax exempted earlier would become chargeable to tax as long term capital gains in the year in which such residential house is transferred. Similarly, if the shareholder purchases within a period of two years or constructs within a period of three years after the date of transfer of capital asset, another residential house (other than the new residential house referred above), then the original exemption will be taxed as capital gains in the year in which the additional residential house is acquired. 7. As per section 56(2)(vii) of the I.T. Act, in case where individual or Hindu undivided Family receives debentures from any person on or after 1st October, 2009 A. without any consideration, aggregate fair market value of which exceeds fifty thousand rupees, then the whole of the aggregate fair market value of such bonds/debentures or; B. for a consideration which is less than the aggregate fair market value of the debenture by an amount exceeding fifty thousand rupees, then the aggregate fair market value of such property as exceeds such consideration; shall be taxable as the income of the recipient. Provided further that this clause shall not apply to any sum of money or any property received (a) from any relative; or (b) on the occasion of the marriage of the individual; or (c) under a will or by way of inheritance; or (d) in contemplation of death of the payer or donor, as the case may be; or (e) from any local authority as defined in the Explanation to clause (20) of section 10; or (f) from any fund or foundation or university or other educational institution or hospital or other medical institution or any trust or institution referred to in clause (23C) of section 10; or (g) from any trust or institution registered under section 12AA.

13.2.3

Direct Credit Applicants having bank accounts with the Refund Bank, as per the demographic details received from the Depository shall be eligible to receive refunds through direct credit. Charges, if any, levied by the Refund Bank for the same would be borne by our Company.

13.2.4

Real Time Gross Settlement (RTGS) Applicants having a bank account with a bank branch which is RTGS enabled as per the information available on the website of RBI and whose refund amount exceeds ` 2 lakhs shall be eligible to receive refund through RTGS, provided the demographic details downloaded from the Depository contain the nine digit MICR code of the Bidders bank which can be mapped with the RBI data to obtain the corresponding Indian Financial System Code (IFSC).

Bank account particulars will be printed on the Consolidated Bond Certificate(s) which can then be deposited only in the account specified. 14. 14.1 Taxation The Applicants are advised to consider and seek independent advice, as may be necessary, on the tax implications of their respective investment in the Bonds. The interest on Bonds will be subject to deduction of tax at source at the rates prevailing from time to time under the provisions of the Income Tax Act or any statutory modification or re-enactment thereof. As per the current provisions of the Income Tax Act, on payment to all categories of resident Bondholders, tax will not be deducted at source from interest on Bonds, if such interest does not exceed ` 2,500 in a financial year. As per clause (ix) of Section 193 of the Income Tax Act, no income tax is required to be withheld on any interest payable on any security issued by a company, where such security is in dematerialised form and is listed on a recognised stock exchange in India in accordance with the Securities Contracts Regulation Act, 1956, as amended, and the rules notified thereunder. Accordingly, no income tax will be deducted at source from the interest on Bonds held in dematerialised form. In case of Bonds held in physical form no tax may be withheld in case the interest does not exceed ` 2,500 in a financial year. However, such interest is taxable income in the hands of Bondholders. If interest on Bonds exceeds the prescribed limit of ` 2,500 in a financial year in case of individual Bondholders, to ensure non-deduction or lower deduction of tax at source, as the case may be, the Bondholders are required to furnish either (a) a declaration (in duplicate) in the prescribed form, i.e., Form 15G which may be given by all Bondholders other than companies, firms and non-residents subject to provisions of section 197A of the Income Tax Act; or (b) a certificate, from the assessing officer of the Bondholder, in the prescribed form under section 197 of the Income Tax Act which may be obtained by the Bondholders. Senior citizens, who are 60 or more years of age at any time during the financial year, can submit a selfdeclaration in the prescribed Form 15H for non-deduction of tax at source in accordance with the provisions of section 197A even if the aggregate income credited or paid or likely to be credited or paid exceeds the maximum limit for the financial year. To ensure non-deduction/lower deduction of tax at source from interest on Bonds, a resident Bondholder is required to submit Form 15G/15H/certificate under section 197 of the Income Tax Act or other evidence, as may be applicable, with the Application Form, or send to the Registrar to the Issue along with a copy of the Application Form on or before the closure of the Issue. Subsequently, Form 15G/15H/ original certificate issued under section 197 of the Income Tax Act or other evidence, as may be applicable, may be submitted to the Company or to such person at such address as may be notified by us from time to time, quoting the name of the sole or first Bondholder, Bondholder number and the distinctive number(s) of the Bond(s) held, at least one month prior to the interest payment date. Bondholders are required to submit Form 15G or 15H or original certificate issued under section 197 of the Income Tax Act or other evidence in each financial year to ensure non-deduction or lower deduction of tax at source from interest on Bonds. If the Bondholder is eligible to submit Form 15G or 15H, he or she is required to tick at the relevant place on the Application Form, to send a blank copy of the form to the Bondholders. Blank declaration form will be furnished to other Bondholders on request made at least two months prior to the interest payment date. This

Tax exemption certificate or document, if any, must be lodged at the office of the Registrar to the Issue prior to the Record Date, or as specifically required. Tax applicable on coupon will be deducted at source on accrual thereof in the Companys books and / or on payment thereof, in accordance with the provisions of the Income Tax Act and / or any other statutory modification, re-enactment or notification as the case may be. A tax deduction certificate will be issued for the amount of tax so deducted on annual basis. Security The Bonds issued by the Company will be secured by creating a charge on the book debts of the company along with identified immovable property by an first charge/pari pasu charge, as may be agreed between the Company and the Debenture Trustee, pursuant to the terms of the Debenture Trust Deed.
