7. AUTHORITY FOR THE BUYBACK

7.1. The Buyback is in accordance with Article 8.2 of the Articles, Sections 68, 69 and 70 and all other applicable provisions of the Companies Act, the SCD Rules, the Management Rules, LODR Regulations and the Buyback Regulations. The Buyback is subject to such conditions and modifications, if any, as may be prescribed or imposed by the appropriate authorities while granting such approvals, permissions and sanctions, which may be agreed by the Board.

7.2. The Buyback has been duly authorised by a resolution of the Board of Directors dated April 16, 2019. The Equity Shareholders have approved the Buyback by a special resolution passed through postal ballot (including e-voting) in accordance with the provisions of Section 110 of the Companies Act and Rule 22 of the Management Rules, the results of which were declared on June 3, 2019.

8. NECESSITY OF THE BUYBACK

The Buyback is being undertaken by the Company to return surplus funds to the Equity Shareholders, which are over and above its ordinary capital requirements and in excess of any current investment plans, in an expedient, effective and cost efficient manner. The Buyback is being undertaken for the following reasons:

8.1. The Buyback will help the Company distribute surplus cash to the Equity Shareholders broadly in proportion to their shareholding, thereby, enhancing the overall return to Equity Shareholders;

8.2. The Buyback, which is being implemented through the Tender Offer route as prescribed under the Buyback Regulations, involves a reservation of up to 15% of the Buyback Size for Small Shareholders. The Company believes that this reservation of up to 15% for Small Shareholders would benefit a large number of the Company’s public shareholders, who would be classified as Small Shareholders for the purposes of the Buyback;

8.3. The Buyback would help in improving financial ratios like earnings per share and return on equity, by reducing the equity base of the Company; and

8.4. The Buyback gives the Eligible Shareholders the choice to either (A) participate in the Buyback and receive cash in lieu of their Equity Shares which are accepted under the Buyback, or (B) not to participate in the Buyback and get a resultant increase in their percentage shareholding in the Company post the Buyback, without additional investment.

9. MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF THE LIKELY IMPACT OF THE BUYBACK ON THE COMPANY

9.1. The Buyback is not likely to cause any material impact on the profitability/earnings of the Company except a reduction in the amount available for investment, which the Company could have otherwise deployed towards generating investment income. Assuming that the response to the Buyback is to the extent of 100% (full Acceptance) from all the Eligible Shareholders up to their Buyback Entitlement, the funds deployed by the Company towards the Buyback excluding costs and expenses of the Buyback, would be Rs. 105,00,00,00,000/- (Rupees Ten Thousand Five Hundred Crores only).

9.2. In terms of the Buyback Regulations, under the Tender Offer route, the Promoters and Promoter Group have the option to participate in the Buyback. In this regard, the Promoter and Promoter Group have expressed their intention vide their letters dated April 16, 2019, to participate in the Buyback and may tender up to an aggregate maximum number of 4,37,14,64,533 (Four Hundred and Thirty Seven Crores Fourteen Lakhs Sixty Four Thousand Five Hundred and Thirty Three) Equity Shares or such lower number of shares in accordance with the provisions of the Buyback Regulations/terms of the Buyback.

10. BASIS OF CALCULATING THE BUYBACK PRICE

10.1. The Equity Shares of the Company are proposed to be bought back at the Buyback Price, i.e., Rs. 325/- (Rupees Three Hundred and Twenty Five only) per Equity Share.

10.2. The Buyback Price has been arrived at after considering various factors such as (i) the share price benchmarks on the NSE, the stock exchange where the maximum volume of trading in the Equity Shares is recorded, (ii) the net worth of the Company, and (iii) the impact on the earnings per Equity Share.

23

10.3. The Buyback Price represents a premium of 22.16% over the volume weighted average market price of the Equity Shares on the NSE for the 60 (Sixty) trading days preceding the date of intimation to the Stock Exchanges of the Board Meeting to consider the proposal of the Buyback and 24.15% over the volume weighted average market price of the Equity Shares on the NSE for the 10 (Ten) trading days preceding the date of intimation to the Stock Exchanges of the Board Meeting to consider the proposal of the Buyback. The closing market price of the Equity Shares as on the date of intimation of the Board Meeting for considering the Buyback, being April 10, 2019, was Rs. 281.00 (Rupees Two Hundred and Eighty One only) on both NSE and BSE.

10.4. The Buyback Price is at a premium of 297.03% of the book value per Equity Share of the Company, which as of March 31, 2019 was Rs. 81.86 (Rupees Eighty One and Eighty Six Paise only) per Equity Share, on a standalone basis.

10.5. The basic and diluted earnings per Equity Share of the Company prior to the Buyback on a standalone basis, for the year ended March 31, 2019 was Rs. 12.67 (Rupees Twelve and Sixty Seven Paise only) and Rs. 12.64 (Rupees Twelve and Sixty Four Paise only) per Equity Share, respectively. Assuming full acceptance under the Buyback, the basic and diluted earnings per Equity Share of the Company will be Rs. 13.39 (Rupees Thirteen and Thirty Nine Paise only) and Rs. 13.36 (Rupees Thirteen and Thirty Six Paise only) per Equity Share post the Buyback, respectively, without factoring in any impact in the statement of profit & loss due to reduction in cash.

10.6. The return on net worth of the Company on a standalone basis was 15.42% for the year ended March 31, 2019, which will increase to 19.58% post Buyback assuming full Acceptance of the Buyback, without factoring in any impact in the statement of profit & loss due to reduction in cash.

11. SOURCES OF FUNDS FOR THE BUYBACK

11.1. Assuming that the response to the Buyback is to the extent of 100% (full Acceptance), the funds that would be utilized by the Company for the purpose of the Buyback would be Rs. 105,00,00,00,000/- (Rupees Ten Thousand Five Hundred Crores only).

11.2. The funds for the Buyback will be sourced from current balances of cash and cash equivalents and/or internal accruals of the Company. The Company does not intend to raise additional debt for the explicit purposes of the Buyback. Borrowed funds will not be used for the Buyback.

11.3. This Buyback is not likely to cause any material impact on the earnings of the Company, except for the cost of financing the Buyback, being a reduction in the treasury income that the Company could have otherwise earned on the funds deployed.

11.4. The Company shall transfer from its free reserves, a sum equal to the nominal value of the Equity Shares bought back to the capital redemption reserve account, and details of such transfer shall be disclosed in its subsequent audited financial statements. The funds borrowed, if any, from banks and financial institutions will not be used for the Buyback.

19. PROCESS AND METHODOLOGY FOR THE BUYBACK

19.1. The Company proposes to Buyback up to 32,30,76,923 (Thirty Two Crores Thirty Lakhs Seventy Six Thousand Nine Hundred and Twenty Three only) fully paid-up Equity Shares from the Eligible Shareholders as on the Record Date, on a proportionate basis, through the Tender Offer route at the Buyback Price, i.e., Rs. 325/- (Rupees Three Hundred and Twenty Five only) per Equity Share, payable in cash for an aggregate amount of Rs. 105,00,00,00,000/- (Rupees Ten Thousand Five Hundred Crores only). The maximum number of Equity Shares proposed to be bought back represents 5.35% of the total issued and paid-up equity share capital of the Company as at March 31, 2019. The Buyback is in accordance with Article 8.2 of the Articles, Sections 68, 69 and 70 and all other applicable provisions of the Companies Act, the SCD Rules, the Management Rules and the Buyback Regulations and subject to such conditions and modifications, if any, as may be prescribed or imposed by the appropriate authorities while granting such approvals, permissions and sanctions, which may be agreed by the Board. The Buyback Size is 23.03% and 20.39% of the fully paid-up equity share capital and free reserves as per the latest audited balance sheet of the Company for the financial year ended March 31, 2019 (the last audited balance sheet available as on the date of the Board Meeting approving the Buyback) on standalone and consolidated basis, respectively. The Equity Shareholders of the Company approved the Buyback, by way of a special resolution, through postal ballot (including e-voting), the results of which were announced on June 3, 2019.

19.2. The aggregate shareholding of the Promoter and Promoter Group as at the date of the Public Announcement is 4,45,59,97,065 (Four Hundred and Forty Five Crores Fifty Nine Lakhs Ninety Seven Thousand and Sixty Five) Equity Shares which represents 73.83% of the existing equity share capital of the Company. In terms of the Buyback Regulations, under the Tender Offer route, the Promoters and Promoter Group have the option to participate in the Buyback. In this regard, the Promoter and Promoter group have expressed their intention vide their letters dated April 16, 2019 to participate in the Buyback and may tender up to an aggregate maximum number of 4,37,14,64,533 (Four Hundred and Thirty Seven Crores Fourteen Lakhs Sixty Four Thousand Five Hundred and Thirty Three) Equity Shares or such lower number of shares in accordance with the provisions of the Buyback Regulations/terms of the Buyback. Please refer to paragraph 9.2 on page 18 of this Letter of Offer for details on participation by the Promoter and Promoter Group.

19.3. Assuming Acceptance of all Equity Shares tendered in the Buyback from the Eligible Shareholders up to their respective Buyback Entitlement, the shareholding of the Promoter and Promoter Group after the completion of the Buyback may increase from 73.83% to 74.39% of the post-Buyback total paid-up equity share capital of the Company. Also, if none of the public shareholders participate and only the Promoter and Promoter Group participate to the extent of the Buyback Entitlement, their shareholding may reduce from 73.83% to 72.90% of the total equity share capital of the Company.

19.4. The Company expresses no opinion as to whether Eligible Shareholders should participate in the Buyback or not and, accordingly, Eligible Shareholders are advised to consult their own advisors to consider participation in the Buyback.

19.5. Record Date and Ratio of Buyback as per the Buyback Entitlement in each Category:

19.5.1. On June 3, 2019, the Company announced June 21, 2019 as the Record Date for the purpose of determining the Buyback Entitlement and the names of the Eligible Shareholders.

38

19.5.2. Holders of ADSs will not be eligible to tender ADSs in the Buyback. In order for such holders to participate in the Buyback, they must become direct holders of Equity Shares as of the Record Date. They, therefore, need to (i) establish an account with a bank, broker or other nominee in India sufficiently in advance of the Record Date to receive the withdrawn Equity Shares in DR type electronic dematerialized form (a “Brokerage Account”) prior to the Record Date, (ii) submit the desired number of ADSs to JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as the ADR depositary (the “Depositary”) for cancellation and withdraw the underlying Equity Shares no later than 12:00 noon New York City time on June 17, 2019 (“Equity Share Withdrawal”) and (iii) after receiving the Equity Shares in the Brokerage Account, tender into the Buyback any or all such withdrawn Equity Shares when the offering period for the Buyback commences. Equity Shares may only be delivered to a DR type demat account. In order to receive the underlying Equity Shares, the Brokerage Account must be a DR type demat account. Prior to the Record Date, holders of ADSs have previously received notice of the Buyback and information regarding surrendering the ADSs to the Depositary for cancellation and withdrawing the underlying Equity Shares through the Postal Ballot Notice such that they could become holders of Equity Shares as of the Record Date and be eligible to participate in the Buyback. Equity Shares trade on the Stock Exchanges and cannot be traded on the NYSE. Due to uncertainties in Indian law and the terms of the deposit agreement, upon withdrawal of the Equity Shares underlying the ADSs, holders of Equity Shares currently do not have any right to re-deposit such Equity Shares into the ADR program to receive ADSs. There is no guarantee that any ADS holder that submits its ADSs for cancellation and withdrawal of the underlying Equity Shares will be able to tender successfully into the Buyback any or all of such Equity Shares. Participation in the Buyback may trigger additional Indian capital gains taxation and other substantial burdens that would not be applicable to sales of ADSs on the NYSE. ADS holders are advised to consult their own legal, financial and tax advisors prior to participating in the Buyback and requesting that the Depositary effect an Equity Share Withdrawal, including regarding advice related to any regulatory approvals and U.S., Indian and other tax considerations. Holders of ADSs who decide to withdraw the underlying Equity Shares will be responsible for all related taxes, duties and fees, including fees payable to the Depositary to cancel the ADSs.

19.5.3. The Equity Shares to be bought back as a part of this Buyback are divided into two categories:

19.5.3.1. Reserved category for Small Shareholders (“Reserved Category”); and

19.5.3.2. General Category for all other Eligible Shareholders (“General Category”).

19.5.4. As defined in the Buyback Regulations, Small Shareholder includes a shareholder, who holds shares whose market value, on the basis of closing price on the recognized stock exchange registering the highest trading volume, as on Record Date, is not more than Two Lakh Rupees. As on the Record Date, the closing price on NSE was Rs. 285.85 /- (Rupees Two Hundred Eighty Five and Eighty Five Paise only) respectively. Accordingly, all Eligible Shareholders holding not more than 699 (Six Hundred and Ninety Nine) Equity Shares as on the Record Date are classified as ‘Small Shareholders’ for the purpose of the Buyback.

19.5.5. Based on the above definition, there are 5,15,732 (Five Lakhs Fifteen Thousand Seven Hundred and Thirty Two) Small Shareholders in the Company with aggregate shareholding of 11,53,51,903 (Eleven Crores Fifty Three Lakhs Fifty One Thousand Nine Hundred and Three) Equity Shares as on the Record Date, which constitutes 1.91% of the outstanding number of Equity Shares of the Company and 35.70% of the maximum number of Equity Shares which the Company proposes to buy back as a part of this Buyback.

39

19.5.6. In compliance with Regulation 6 of the Buyback Regulations, the reservation for the Small Shareholders, will be the higher of:

19.5.6.1. Fifteen percent of the number of Equity Shares which the Company proposes to Buyback i.e. 15% of 32,30,76,923 (Thirty Two Crores Thirty Lakhs Seventy Six Thousand Nine Hundred and Twenty Three) Equity Shares which is 4,84,61,539 (Four Crores Eighty Four Lakhs Sixty One Thousand Five Hundred and Thirty Nine) Equity Shares; or

19.5.6.1.1. The number of Equity Shares entitled as per their shareholding as on the Record Date i.e.(11,53,51,903/6,03,53,59,575) x 32,30,76,923 which is 61,74,867 (Sixty One Lakhs Seventy Four Thousand Eight Hundred and Sixty Seven) Equity Shares.

19.5.6.1.2. All the outstanding fully paid-up Equity Shares have been used for computing the Buyback Entitlement of Small Shareholders since the Promoter and Promoter Group also intend to offer Equity Shares held by them in the Buyback.

19.5.6.1.3. Based on the above and in accordance with Regulation 6 of the Buyback Regulations, 4,84,61,539 (Four Crores Eighty Four Lakhs Sixty One Thousand Five Hundred and Thirty Nine) fully paid-up Equity Shares have been reserved for Small Shareholders. Accordingly, General Category for all other Eligible Shareholders shall consist of 27,46,15,384 (Twenty Seven Crores Forty Six Lakhs Fifteen Thousand Three Hundred and Eighty Four) Equity Shares.

19.5.7. Based on the above Buyback Entitlements, the ratio of Buyback for both categories is as follows:

Category of Shareholders	Ratio of Buyback
Reserved category for Small Shareholders	71 (Seventy One) Equity Shares out of every 169 (One Hundred and Sixty Nine) fully paid-up Equity Shares held on the Record Date.
General category for all other Eligible Shareholders	52 (Fifty Two) Equity Shares out of every 1,121 (One Thousand One Hundred and Twenty One) fully paid-up Equity Shares held on the Record Date.

Note: The above ratio of Buyback is approximate and provides indicative Buyback Entitlement. Any computation of Entitlement using above Buyback ratio may provide a slightly different number than the actual entitlement due to rounding-off. The actual Buyback Entitlement factor for Small Shareholders under reserved category is 42.01191115% and for other shareholders under general category it is 4.63876737%. The decimals have been rounded-off to eight decimal places. Also, the numbers arrived at using the actual Buyback Entitlement may not conform exactly to the Buyback Entitlement printed in the Tender Form due to rounding-off of the factor.

19.6. Fractional Entitlements:

19.6.1. If the Buyback Entitlement under Buyback, after applying the above mentioned ratios to the Equity Shares held on Record Date, is not a round number (i.e. not in the multiple of 1 Equity Share), then the fractional entitlement shall be ignored for computation of Buyback Entitlement to tender Equity Shares in the Buyback for both categories of Eligible Shareholders.

19.6.2. On account of ignoring the fractional entitlement, those Small Shareholders who hold 2 (Two) or less Equity Shares as on Record Date will be dispatched a Tender Form with zero entitlement. Such Small Shareholders are entitled to tender Additional Equity Shares as part of the Buyback and will be given preference in the Acceptance of one Equity Share, if such Small Shareholders have tendered Additional Equity Shares.

19.7. Basis of Acceptance of Equity Shares validly tendered in the Reserved Category for Small Shareholders:

19.7.1. Subject to the provisions contained in this Letter of Offer, the Company will Accept Equity Shares tendered in the Buyback by Small Shareholders in the Reserved Category in the following order of priority:

40

19.7.1.1. Acceptance of 100% Equity Shares from Small Shareholders in the Reserved Category, who have validly tendered their Equity Shares to the extent of their Buyback Entitlement or the number of Equity Shares tendered by them, whichever is less; and

19.7.1.2. Post the Acceptance as described in paragraph 19.7.1.1 above, in case there are any Equity Shares left to be bought back from Small Shareholders in the Reserved Category, the Small Shareholders who were entitled to tender zero Equity Shares (on account of ignoring the fractional entitlement), and have tendered Additional Equity Shares as part of the Buyback, shall be given preference and one share each from the Additional Equity Shares applied by these Small Shareholders shall be bought back in the Reserved Category.

19.7.1.3. Post the Acceptance as described in paragraph 19.7.1.1 and 19.7.1.2 above, in case there are any Equity Shares left to be bought back in the Reserved Category, the Additional Equity Shares tendered by the Small Shareholders over and above their Buyback Entitlement, shall be Accepted in proportion of the Additional Equity Shares tendered by them and the Acceptances per Small Shareholder shall be made in accordance with the Buyback Regulations, i.e. valid Acceptances per Small Shareholder shall be equal to the Additional Equity Shares validly tendered by the Small Shareholder divided by the total Additional Equity Shares validly tendered and multiplied by the total pending number of Equity Shares to be Accepted in Reserved Category. For the purpose of this calculation, the Additional Equity Shares taken into account for such Small Shareholders, from whom one Equity Share has been Accepted in accordance with paragraph 19.7.1.2 above, shall be reduced by one.

19.7.1.4. Adjustment for fractional results in case of proportionate Acceptance, as described in paragraph 19.7.1.3 above:

19.7.1.4.1. For any Small Shareholder, if the number of Additional Equity Shares to be Accepted, calculated on a proportionate basis is not in the multiple of 1 and the fractional Acceptance is greater than or equal to 0.50, the fraction would be rounded off to the next higher integer.

19.7.1.4.2. For any shareholder, if the number of Additional Equity Shares to be Accepted, calculated on a proportionate basis is not in the multiple of 1 and the fractional Acceptance is less than 0.50, the fraction shall be ignored.

19.8. Basis of Acceptance of Shares validly tendered in the General Category:

19.8.1. Subject to the provisions contained in this Letter of Offer, the Company will Accept the Equity Shares tendered in the Buyback by all other Eligible Shareholders in the General Category in the following order of priority:

19.8.1.1. Acceptance of 100% Equity Shares from other Eligible Shareholders in the General Category who have validly tendered their Equity Shares, to the extent of their Buyback Entitlement, or the number of Equity Shares tendered by them, whichever is less.

19.8.1.2. Post the Acceptance as described in paragraph 19.8.1.1 above, in case there are any Equity Shares left to be bought back in the General Category, the Additional Equity Shares tendered by the other Eligible Shareholders over and above their Buyback Entitlement shall be Accepted in proportion of the Additional Equity Shares tendered by them and the Acceptances per shareholder shall be made in accordance with the Buyback Regulations, i.e. valid Acceptances per shareholder shall be equal to the Additional Equity Shares validly tendered by the Eligible Shareholder divided by the total Additional Equity Shares validly tendered in the General Category and multiplied by the total pending number of Equity Shares to be Accepted in General Category.

19.8.1.3. Adjustment for fractional results in case of proportionate Acceptance as described in paragraph 19.8.1.2 above:

19.8.1.3.1. For any Eligible Shareholder, if the number of Additional Equity Shares to be Accepted, calculated on a proportionate basis is not in the multiple of 1 and the fractional Acceptance is greater than or equal to 0.50, the fraction would be rounded off to the next higher integer.

19.8.1.3.2. For any Eligible Shareholder if the number of Additional Equity Shares to be Accepted, calculated on a proportionate basis is not in the multiple of 1 and the fractional Acceptance is less than 0.50, the fraction shall be ignored.

19.9. Basis of Acceptance of Equity Shares between Categories

19.9.1. In case there are any Equity Shares left to be bought back in one category (“Partially Filled Category”) after Acceptance in accordance with the above described methodology for both the categories, and there are additional unaccepted validly tendered Equity Shares in the second category, the Additional Equity Shares in the second category shall be Accepted proportionately, i.e. valid Acceptances per Eligible Shareholder shall be equal to the additional outstanding Equity Shares validly tendered by an Eligible Shareholder in the second category divided by the total additional outstanding Equity Shares validly tendered in the second category and multiplied by the total pending number of Equity Shares to be bought back in the Partially Filled Category.

19.9.2. If the Partially Filled Category is the General Category, and the second category is the Reserved Category, for the purpose of this calculation, the Additional Equity Shares tendered by such Small Shareholders, from whom one Equity Share has been Accepted in accordance with paragraph 19.7.1.2 shall be reduced by one.

19.9.3. Adjustment for fractional results in case of proportionate Acceptance, as defined in paragraphs 19.9.1 and 19.9.2 above:

19.9.3.1. For any shareholder, if the number of Additional Equity Shares to be Accepted, calculated on a proportionate basis is not in the multiple of 1 and the fractional Acceptance is greater than or equal to 0.50, the fraction would be rounded off to the next higher integer.

19.9.3.2. For any shareholder, if the number of Additional Equity Shares to be Accepted, calculated on a proportionate basis is not in the multiple of 1 and the fractional Acceptance is less than 0.50, the fraction shall be ignored.

19.10. For avoidance of doubt, it is clarified that:

19.10.1. the Equity Shares Accepted under the Buyback from each Eligible Shareholder, in accordance with paragraphs above, shall not exceed the number of Equity Shares tendered by the respective Eligible Shareholder;

19.10.2. the Equity Shares Accepted under the Buyback from each Eligible Shareholder, in accordance with paragraphs above, shall not exceed the number of Equity Shares held by respective Eligible Shareholders as on the Record Date; and

19.10.3. the Equity Shares tendered by any Eligible Shareholders over and above the number of Equity Shares held by such Eligible Shareholders as on the Record Date shall not be considered for the purpose of Acceptance in accordance with the paragraphs above.

42

19.10.3.1. The Equity Shares accepted under the Buyback, shall not exceed 32,30,76,923 (Thirty Two Crores Thirty Lakhs Seventy Six Thousand Nine Hundred and Twenty Three) Equity Shares OR Rs. 105,00,00,00,000 (Rupees Ten Thousand Five Crores only), whichever is lower.

19.10.3.2. In case of any practical issues, resulting out of rounding-off of Equity Shares or otherwise, the Board or Buyback Committee authorized by the Board will have the authority to decide such final allocation with respect to such rounding-off or any excess of Equity Shares or any shortage of Equity Shares after allocation of Equity Shares as set out in the process described in Paragraph 19.7, 19.8, 19.9 and 19.10.

19.11. Clubbing of Entitlement

In accordance with Regulation 9(ix) of the Buyback Regulations, in order to ensure that the same shareholders with multiple demat accounts/folios do not receive a higher entitlement under the Small Shareholder category, the Company will club together the Equity Shares held by such shareholders with a common PAN for determining the category (Small Shareholder or General) and entitlement under the Buyback. In case of joint shareholding, the Company will club together the Equity Shares held in cases where the sequence of the PANs of the joint shareholders is identical. In case of physical shareholders, where the sequence of PANs is identical, the Company will club together the Equity Shares held in such cases. Similarly, in case of physical shareholders where PAN is not available, the Company will check the sequence of names of the joint holders and club together the Equity Shares held in such cases where the sequence of name of joint shareholders is identical. The shareholding of institutional investors like mutual funds, pension funds/trusts, insurance companies etc., with common PAN will not be clubbed together for determining the category and will be considered separately, where these Equity Shares are held for different schemes and have a different demat account nomenclature based on information prepared by the Registrar as per the shareholder records received from the Depositories.

20. PROCEDURE FOR TENDER OFFER AND SETTLEMENT

20.1. The Buyback is open to all Eligible Shareholders (including holders of ADSs who submit the desired number of ADSs to the Depositary for cancellation and withdraw the underlying Equity Shares from the ADR program no later than 12:00 noon New York City time on June 17, 2019) and beneficial owners of the Company, holding Equity Shares in dematerialized form on the Record Date.

20.5. Eligible Shareholders will have to transfer the Equity Shares from the same demat account in which they were holding the Equity Shares as on the Record Date and in case of multiple demat accounts, Eligible Shareholders are required to tender the applications separately from each demat account. In case of any changes in the demat account in which the Equity Shares were held as on Record Date, such Eligible Shareholders should provide sufficient proof of the same to the Registrar to the Buyback and such tendered Equity Shares may be Accepted subject to appropriate verification and validation by the Registrar to the Buyback. The Board or Buyback Committee authorized by the Board will have the authority to decide such final allocation in case of non-receipt of sufficient proof by such Eligible Shareholder.

Eligible Shareholders holding Equity Shares of the Company can choose to participate and get cash in lieu of shares to be Accepted under the Buyback or they may choose not to participate. Eligible Shareholders holding Equity Shares of the Company may also accept a part of their entitlement. Eligible Shareholders holding Equity Shares of the Company also have the option of tendering Additional Shares (over and above their entitlement) and participate in the shortfall created due to non-participation of some other Eligible Shareholders, if any. If the Buyback entitlement for any Eligible Shareholder is not a round number, the fractional entitlement shall be ignored for computation of entitlement to tender Equity Shares in the Buyback. The Acceptance of any Equity Shares tendered in excess of the Buyback Entitlement by the Eligible Shareholder shall be in terms of the procedure outlined herein.

20.7. The maximum tender under the Buyback by any Eligible Shareholder cannot exceed the number of Equity Shares held by the Eligible Shareholder as on the Record Date. In case the Eligible Shareholder holds Equity Shares through multiple demat accounts, the tender through a demat account cannot exceed the number of Equity Shares held in that demat account.

20.8. The Company shall accept all the Equity Shares validly tendered for the Buyback by Eligible Shareholders, on the basis of their Buyback Entitlement as on the Record Date.

20.9. As elaborated under paragraph 19.5 above, the Equity Shares proposed to be bought as a part of the Buyback are divided into two categories; (a) Reserved Category for Small Shareholders and (b) the General Category for all other Eligible Shareholders. The Buyback Entitlement of Eligible Shareholders in each category shall be calculated accordingly.

20.10. Post Acceptance of the Equity Shares tendered on the basis of Buyback Entitlement, Equity Shares left to be bought as a part of the Buyback, if any, in one category shall first be Accepted, in proportion to the Equity Shares tendered, over and above their Buyback Entitlement, by Eligible Shareholders in that category, and thereafter, from Eligible Shareholders who have tendered over and above their Buyback Entitlement, in the other category.

20.11. The Buyback shall be implemented using the “Mechanism for acquisition of shares through Stock Exchange” notified by SEBI Circulars and following the procedure prescribed in the Companies Act, the SCD Rules and the Buyback Regulations and as may be determined by the Board and on such terms and conditions as may be permitted by law from time to time.

21. NOTE ON TAXATION

A. INDIAN TAXATION

THE SUMMARY OF THE TAX CONSIDERATIONS IN THIS SECTION ARE BASED ON THE CURRENT PROVISIONS OF THE TAX LAWS OF INDIA AND THE REGULATIONS THEREUNDER, THE JUDICIAL AND THE ADMINISTRATIVE INTERPRETATIONS THEREOF, WHICH ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE OR MODIFICATION BY SUBSEQUENT LEGISLATIVE, REGULATORY, ADMINISTRATIVE OR JUDICIAL DECISIONS. ANY SUCH CHANGES COULD HAVE DIFFERENT TAX IMPLICATIONS.

IN VIEW OF THE PARTICULARIZED NATURE OF TAX CONSEQUENCES, SHAREHOLDERS ARE REQUIRED TO CONSULT THEIR TAX ADVISORS FOR THE APPLICABLE TAX PROVISIONS INCLUDING THE TREATMENT THAT MAY BE GIVEN BY THEIR RESPECTIVE TAX OFFICERS IN THEIR CASE, AND THE APPROPRIATE COURSE OF ACTION THAT THEY SHOULD TAKE.

THE COMPANY DOES NOT ACCEPT ANY RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE ACCURACY OR OTHERWISE OF THIS TAX SUMMARY AND THERE CAN BE NO LIABILITY ON THE COMPANY IF ANY ACTION IS TAKEN BY THE SHAREHOLDER SOLELY BASED ON THIS TAX SUMMARY.

THEREFORE, SHAREHOLDERS CANNOT RELY ON THIS ADVICE AND THE SUMMARY TAX IMPLICATIONS RELATING TO THE TREATMENT OF INCOME TAX IN THE CASE OF BUYBACK OF EQUITY SHARES LISTED ON THE STOCK EXCHANGE SET OUT BELOW SHOULD BE TREATED AS INDICATIVE AND FOR GUIDANCE PURPOSES ONLY.

1. GENERAL

The basis of charge of Indian income-tax depends upon the residential status of the taxpayer during a tax year. The Indian tax year runs from April 1 until March 31. A person who is an Indian tax resident is liable to taxation in India on his worldwide income, subject to certain tax exemptions, which are provided under the Income Tax Act, 1961 (the “Income Tax Act” or the “Act”).

A person who qualifies as a non-resident for Indian income-tax purposes is generally subject to tax in India only on such person’s India-sourced income or income received by such person in India. In case of shares of a company, the source of income from shares would depend on the “situs” of such shares. As per judicial precedents, generally the “situs” of the shares is where a company is “incorporated” and where its shares can be transferred. Accordingly, since the Company is incorporated in India, the Company’s shares would be “situated” in India and any gains arising to a non-resident on transfer of such shares should be taxable in India under the Income Tax Act. Further, the non-resident can avail themselves of the beneficial provisions of the Double Taxation Avoidance Agreement (“DTAA”) between India and the respective jurisdiction of the shareholder subject to meeting relevant conditions and providing and maintaining necessary information and documents as prescribed under the Income Tax Act.

The Income Tax Act also provides for different tax regimes/ rates applicable to the gains arising on the buyback of shares, based on the period of holding, residential status and category of the shareholder, nature of the income earned, etc. The summary of tax implications on the buyback of equity shares on the stock exchanges in India is set out below. All references to equity shares in this note refer to equity shares listed on the stock exchanges in India unless stated otherwise.

49

2. CLASSIFICATION OF SHAREHOLDERS

Shareholders can be classified under the following categories:

a) Resident Shareholders being:

• Individuals, Hindu Undivided Family (HUF), Association of Persons (AOP) and Body of Individuals (BOI)

• Indian companies

• Others

b) Non Resident Shareholders being:

• Non Resident Indians (NRIs)

• Foreign citizens

• Foreign companies

• Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs) / Foreign Portfolio Investors (FPIs)

3. CLASSIFICATION OF INCOME

Shares can be classified under the following two categories:

a) Shares held as investment (Income from transfer taxable under the head “Capital Gains”)

b) Shares held as stock-in-trade (Income from transfer taxable under the head “Profits and Gains from Business or Profession”)

Gains arising from the transfer of shares may be treated either as “capital gains” or as “business income” for tax purposes, depending upon whether such shares were held as a capital asset (held as investment) or trading asset (i.e., stock-in-trade). Traditionally, the issue of characterization of income arising from sale of shares has been a subject matter of litigation with the tax authorities. There have been various judicial pronouncements on whether gains from transactions in securities should be taxed as “business profits” or as “capital gains”. However, these pronouncements, while laying down certain guiding principles have largely been driven by the facts and circumstances of each case. The apex body of Income-tax administrations, i.e., Central Board of Direct Taxes (“CBDT”) has issued Circular no. 6 of 2016, as per which, if the taxpayer opts to consider the shares as stock-in-trade, the income arising from the transfer of such shares would be treated as its business income. Also, if such shares are held for a period of more than 12 months, if the taxpayer desires to treat the income arising from the transfer thereof as “capital gains”, the same shall not be put in dispute by the Tax Officer. However, the choice on characterization, once taken by the taxpayer in a particular tax year, should be consistent and shall remain applicable in the subsequent tax years as well and the taxpayer shall not be allowed to opt into a different or contrary stand in this regard.

Further, investments by FIIs/FPIs in any securities in accordance with the regulations made under the Securities Exchange Board of India Act, 1992 would be treated as capital asset under the provisions of the Income Tax Act.

3.1 SHARES HELD AS INVESTMENT

As per the provisions of the Income Tax Act, where the shares are held as investments, income arising from the transfer of such shares is taxable under the head “Capital Gains”. Capital gains on buyback of shares of a company listed on the stock exchanges in India are governed by the provisions of section 46A of the Income Tax Act and would attract capital gains in the hands of shareholders as per provisions of section 48 of the Income Tax Act. The provisions of buy back tax under section 115QA in Chapter XII-DA of the Income Tax Act do not apply for shares listed on the stock exchange (please refer paragraph 7 for amendments proposed by the Finance (No. 2) Bill, 2019).

For non-residents, capital gains would be subject to taxability under the Income Tax Act or provisions of the relevant DTAA, whichever is more beneficial. However, in order to avail the benefits of DTAA, the non-resident shareholder shall furnish a tax residency certificate (as stipulated under section 90 of the Income Tax Act).

50

3.1.1 Period of holding

Depending on the period for which the shares are held, the gains would be taxable as “short term capital gain” or “long term capital gain”:

• In respect of equity shares of a listed company held for a period less than or equal to 12 months prior to the date of transfer, the same shall be treated as a “short-term capital asset”, and the gains arising therefrom shall be taxable as “short term capital gains” (“STCG”).

• Similarly, where equity shares of a listed company are held for a period more than 12 months prior to the date of transfer, the same shall be treated as a “long-term capital asset”, and the gains arising therefrom shall be taxable as “long-term capital gains” (“LTCG”).

3.1.2 Buyback of shares through a recognized stock exchange

Where the buyback of equity shares is through a recognized stock exchange in India and such transaction is chargeable to Securities Transaction Tax (“STT”), the taxability for shareholders is as follows:

• With effect from April 1, 2018, buyback of equity shares (which is subject to STT) will be taxable as LTCG in accordance with the provisions of section 112A of the Income Tax Act.

• LTCG will be the difference between the consideration paid by the Company on buyback of equity shares and the ‘specified cost of acquisition’ of such shares.

• The ‘specified cost of acquisition’ of the equity shares which are acquired prior to February 1, 2018 will be the higher of:

(i) the cost of acquisition of equity shares;

and

(ii) Lower of—

(a) the fair market value of equity shares; and

(b) the full value of consideration received or accruing as a result of the transfer of the equity shares.

• Fair market value is defined to mean the value as on January 31, 2018 which is the highest price of the equity shares quoted on the stock exchange.

• LTCG exceeding ₹100,000 will be subject to tax at 10% (plus applicable surcharge and cess) without any indexation benefit.

• However, in this regard, section 112A will not apply if equity shares are acquired on or after October 1, 2004 and STT was not paid except in situations provided in Notification No. 60 of 2018 dated October 1, 2018, namely:

(a) where acquisition of existing listed equity share in a company whose equity shares are not frequently traded in a recognized stock exchange of India is made through a preferential issue

The exception to (a) above are the following cases

(i) Acquisition of shares approved by the Supreme Court, High Court, National Company Law Tribunal, Securities and Exchange Board of India or Reserve Bank of India;

(ii) Acquisition of shares by any non-resident in accordance with foreign direct investment guidelines issued by the Government of India;

(iii) Acquisition of shares by Category I or a Category II Alternative Investment Fund and is regulated under the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Alternative Investment Fund) Regulations, 2012 or a qualified venture capital fund referred to in section 10(23FB) or a Qualified Institutional Buyer; and

51

(iv) through preferential issue to which the provisions of chapter VII of the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Issue of Capital and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2009 does not apply.

(b) where transaction for acquisition of existing listed equity share in a company is not entered through a recognized stock exchange in India:

The exception to (b) above are as follows:

Acquisition of listed equity shares in a company which has been made in accordance with the provisions of the Securities Contracts (Regulation) Act, 1956, and is:

(i) by scheduled banks, reconstruction or securitization companies or public financial institutions during their ordinary course of business;

(ii) approved by the Supreme Court, High Courts, National Company Law Tribunal, Securities and Exchange Board of India or Reserve Bank of India in this behalf;

(iii) under employee stock option scheme or employee stock purchase scheme framed under the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Employee Stock Option Scheme and Employee Stock Purchase Scheme) Guidelines, 1999;

(iv) by any non-resident in accordance with foreign direct investment guidelines of the Government of India;

(v) in accordance with Securities and Exchange Board of India (Substantial Acquisition of Shares and Takeovers) Regulation, 2011;

(vi) from the Government;

(vii) by Category I or a Category II Alternative Investment Fund and is regulated under the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Alternative Investment Fund) Regulations, 2012 or a qualified venture capital fund referred to in section 10(23FB) or a Qualified Institutional Buyer, etc.

• Where Section 112A is not applicable, LTCG will be chargeable to tax for resident Individuals at 20% with indexation or at 10% without indexation, along with the rebate as is applicable.

• STCG on buyback of equity shares will be subject to tax at 15% under section 111A of the Income Tax Act. Rebate for resident Individuals under section 87A of the Income Tax Act is available on tax payable under section 11A of the Act.

In the case of resident Individual or HUF, the benefit of maximum amount which is not chargeable to income-tax (i.e., basic exemption limit) is required to be considered while computing LTCG or STCG taxable under section 111A or 112A of the Income Tax Act. Applicable surcharge and health and education cess are leviable in addition to the tax above (Please see below for rate of surcharge and cess).

As an overall point, since the Buyback is undertaken on a recognized stock exchange, such transaction is liable to STT. Currently, the STT rate applicable on the purchase or sale of shares on the stock exchange is 0.1% of the value of the security.

Further, resident corporate shareholders would also be subject to Minimum Alternate Tax (“MAT”) under section 115JB of the Income Tax Act at the rate of 18.50%. Foreign companies will not be subject to MAT if the country of residence of such foreign company has entered into a DTAA with India and such foreign company does not have a permanent establishment in India.

3.1.3 Taxation for American Depository Shares (“ADS”) holders

The non-resident Holders may participate in the Buyback by submitting their ADSs to the Depositary for cancellation and withdrawing the underlying Equity Shares and then tendering those Equity Shares back to the Company for buyback through the stock exchange in India.

52

There can be no assurance that the Equity Shares offered by a Holder in the Buyback will be accepted. Holders are advised to consult their legal, financial and tax advisors for advice prior to participating in the Buyback, including advice related to any regulatory approvals and tax issues.

The following is a brief summary of capital gains taxation in respect of ADS (as defined in Explanation to Section 115AC or 115ACA of the Income Tax Act) issued to non-resident holders against the issue of ordinary shares of the Company:

• There are no specific tax provisions enumerating India tax consequences on redemption of ADSs into Equity Shares. If ADSs are treated as a title receipt to underlying shares of an Indian company, there are good arguments to support that Equity Shares received by non-resident Holders upon redemption of ADSs may not be considered as transfer and hence not subject to capital gains tax in India at the point of redemption. While there are arguments in favor of the position that redemption of ADSs into equity shares should not be subject to capital gains tax, the law is not clear on this and there are no relevant tax rulings. As a result, this view is not free from doubt.

• The period of holding of shares acquired by such non-resident Holders on redemption of ADSs would be reckoned from the date on which a request for such redemption was made.

• Price of such Equity Shares held by non-resident Holder prevailing on any recognised stock exchange in India on the date on which a request for such redemption was made by the non-resident Holder will be considered as cost of acquisition of such Equity Shares.

• STT will be levied at the time of transfer of Equity Shares as part of the Buyback.

• Non-resident shareholders can avail themselves of the beneficial provisions of the applicable DTAA entered into by India with relevant shareholder country but subject to fulfilling relevant conditions and submitting/ maintaining necessary documents prescribed under the Income Tax Act.

• Refer to the India tax implications on sale of Equity Shares above.

3.2 SHARES HELD AS STOCK-IN-TRADE

If the shares are held as stock-in-trade by any of the eligible shareholders of the Company, then the gains would be characterized as business income and taxable under the head “Profits and Gains from Business or Profession.” In such a case, the provisions of section 46A of the Income Tax Act will not apply.

3.2.1 Resident Shareholders

a) For individuals, HUF, AOP, BOI, profits would be taxable at applicable slab rates.

b) Domestic companies having turnover or gross receipts not exceeding ₹250 crores in the fiscal year 2017-18, profits would be taxable at 25%.

c) For persons other than stated in (a) and (b) above, profits would be taxable @ 30%.

No benefit of indexation by virtue of period of holding would be available in any case.

3.2.2 Non Resident Shareholders

a) Non-resident shareholders can avail beneficial provisions of the applicable DTAA entered into by India with the relevant shareholder country but subject to fulfilling relevant conditions and submitting/maintaining necessary documents prescribed under the Income Tax Act.

b) Where DTAA provisions are not applicable:

• For non-resident individuals, HUF, AOP, BOI, profits would be taxable at applicable slab rates

53

• For foreign companies, profits would be taxed in India @ 40%

• For other non-resident shareholders, such as foreign firms, profits would be taxed in India @ 30%.

In addition to the above, applicable surcharge and health and education cess are leviable. (Please see below for rate of surcharge and cess).

4. TAX DEDUCTION AT SOURCE

4.1 In case of Resident Shareholders

In the absence of any specific provision under the Income Tax Act, the Company is not required to deduct tax on the consideration payable to resident shareholders pursuant to the said Buyback.

4.2 In case of Non-resident Shareholders

The primary responsibility to discharge tax is that of the non-resident shareholder if the income is taxable in India. The non-resident shareholder should compute LTCG / STCG (as the case may be) on the buyback of Equity Shares and immediately discharge to the Indian Government the applicable taxes in India, in consultation with their custodians/authorized dealers/tax advisors (as appropriate). Since the Buyback is through the stock exchange, the Company will not be able to withhold any taxes, and thus, the Company believes that the responsibility of withholding/discharge of the taxes due on such gains (if any) is solely on the custodians/authorized dealers/ non-resident shareholder with no recourse to the Company.

It is therefore important that the non-resident shareholder consult their custodians/authorized dealers/tax advisors appropriately and immediately pay taxes in India (either through deduction at source or otherwise). Considering the above, the Company is not responsible for, and responsibility vests completely with the non-resident shareholder to discharge, the tax liability in India on the buyback of Equity Shares. In the event the Indian Government was to charge the Company for any taxes arising from the Buyback, the non-resident shareholder will fully indemnify the Company for any tax (including interest) demands on the buyback of Equity Shares. Non-resident shareholders also undertake to provide the Company, on demand, the relevant details in respect of taxability / non-taxability of the proceeds arising on buyback of Equity Shares, copies of tax returns filed in India, evidence of the tax paid, etc.

5. TAX SLABS

The applicable tax slabs are as follows:

Taxpayer type	Maximum amount not chargeable to tax
Resident individuals who is a senior citizen (60 years or more but less than 80 years as on last date of financial year)	₹	300,000
Resident individuals who is a super senior citizen (80 years or more at any time during the financial year)	₹	500,000
In case of any other individual	₹	250,000
In case of HUF, AOP, BOI, Artificial judicial person	₹	250,000

Rebate Under Section 87A for Resident Individuals. A resident Individual is eligible for a rebate of 100% of income tax liability or ₹ 12,500, whichever is lower.

6. RATE OF SURCHARGE AND CESS

In addition to the basic tax rate, Surcharge and Health and Education Cess are leviable as follows:

54

6.1 Surcharge

Taxpayer	Range of total income	Rate
Domestic companies	Exceeds ₹ 1 crore but does not exceed ₹ 10 crore		7	%

The Finance (No. 2) Bill, 2019 contains certain amendments to tax slabs, rebate, surcharge and cess and you should consult with your own tax advisors to determine the tax rates applicable to your particular circumstances.

7. TAX PROVISION UNDER FINANCE (NO. 2) BILL, 2019

The Finance (No. 2) Bill, 2019 has extended the applicability of buyback tax to listed companies pursuant to buyback of its shares, effective 5 July 2019, by way of amendment to section 115QA of the Income Tax Act. Consequential exemption has also been extended under Section 10(34A) of the Income Tax Act to the shareholders for the amounts received from the company on buyback.

THE ABOVE NOTE ON TAXATION SETS OUT THE PROVISIONS OF LAW IN A SUMMARY MANNER ONLY AND IS NOT A COMPLETE ANALYSIS OR LISTING OF ALL POTENTIAL TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE DISPOSAL OF EQUITY SHARES. THIS NOTE IS NEITHER BINDING ON ANY REGULATORS NOR CAN THERE BE ANY ASSURANCE THAT THEY WILL NOT TAKE A POSITION CONTRARY TO THE COMMENTS MENTIONED HEREIN. HENCE, YOU SHOULD CONSULT WITH YOUR OWN TAX ADVISORS FOR THE TAX PROVISIONS APPLICABLE TO YOUR PARTICULAR CIRCUMSTANCES.

B. CERTAIN MATERIAL U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES.

The following is a summary of certain material U.S. federal income tax consequences that may be relevant with respect to a participation in the Buyback of Equity Shares to U.S. holders (as defined below) (or the exchange of ADSs for Equity Shares and subsequent participation in the Buyback) and is for general information only. For purposes of this discussion, “U.S. holders” are individuals who are citizens or residents of the United States, corporations (or other entities treated as corporations for U.S. federal income tax purposes) created in or under the laws of the United States or any political subdivision thereof or therein, estates, the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income taxation regardless of its source and trusts having a valid election to be treated as U.S. persons in effect under U.S. Treasury Regulations or for which a U.S. court exercises primary supervision and a U.S. person has the authority to control all substantial decisions.

This summary is limited to U.S. holders who hold Equity Shares or ADSs as capital assets. In addition, this summary is limited to U.S. holders who are not residents in India for purposes of the Convention between the Government of the United States of America and the Government of the Republic of India for the Avoidance of Double Taxation and the Prevention of Fiscal Evasion with respect to Taxes on Income (the “Treaty”). If a partnership (or an entity treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes) holds the Equity Shares or ADSs, the tax treatment of a partner will generally depend upon the status of the partner and upon the activities of the partnership. A partner in a partnership holding Equity Shares or ADSs should consult its own tax advisor.

This summary does not address any tax considerations arising under the laws of any U.S. state or local or non-U.S. jurisdiction, potential application of the Medicare contribution tax on net investment income, or tax considerations under any U.S. non-income tax laws. In addition, this summary does not address tax considerations applicable to holders that may be subject to special tax rules, such as banks, insurance companies, regulated investment companies, real estate investment trusts, financial

55

institutions, dealers in securities or currencies, tax-exempt entities, persons liable for alternative minimum tax, persons that hold Equity Shares or ADSs as a position in a “straddle” or as part of a “hedging” or “conversion” transaction for tax purposes, persons holding ADSs or Equity Shares through partnerships or other pass-through entities, persons that have a “functional currency” other than the U.S. dollar or holders of 10% or more, by voting power or value, of the shares of the Company. This summary is based on the tax laws of the United States as in effect on the date of this document and on U.S. Treasury Regulations in effect or, in some cases, proposed, as of the date of this document, as well as judicial and administrative interpretations thereof available on or before such date and is based in part on the assumption that each obligation in the deposit agreement and any related agreement will be performed in accordance with its terms. All of the foregoing is subject to change, which change could apply retroactively and could affect the tax consequences described below.

EACH PROSPECTIVE INVESTOR SHOULD CONSULT ITS OWN TAX ADVISOR WITH RESPECT TO THE U.S. FEDERAL, STATE, LOCAL AND NON-U.S. TAX CONSEQUENCES OF PARTICIPATING IN THE BUYBACK.

1. OWNERSHIP OF ADSs

For U.S. federal income tax purposes, Holders generally will be treated as the owners of Equity Shares represented by such ADSs. Accordingly, the conversion of ADSs into Equity Shares to participate in the Buyback generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax.

2. TAX TREATMENT OF BUYBACK

An exchange of Equity Shares for cash by a U.S. holder pursuant to the Buyback will be a taxable transaction for U.S. federal income tax purposes. In such case, depending on the applicable U.S. holder’s particular circumstances, such tendering U.S. holder will be treated either as recognizing gain or loss from the disposition of the Equity Shares or as receiving a distribution from the Company.

Under Section 302 of the Internal Revenue Code, a tendering U.S. holder will recognize gain or loss on the exchange of Equity Shares for cash if the exchange:

• results in a “complete termination” of the holder’s interest in the Company;

• results in a “substantially disproportionate” redemption with respect to such U.S. holder; or

• is “not essentially equivalent to a dividend” with respect to the U.S. holder.

The receipt of cash by a U.S. holder in the exchange of Equity Shares will be deemed to result in a “complete termination” of the holder’s interest in the Company if either (i) all the shares actually and constructively owned by a holder (including shares which he or she has the right to acquire by exercise of an option) are sold pursuant to the Buyback and such holder does not thereafter own any shares of the Company either actually or constructively or (ii) all the shares of Equity Shares actually owned by a holder are sold pursuant to the Buyback, such holder does not actually own any other shares of the Company, and the holder is eligible to waive and effectively waives constructive ownership of shares owned by family members under procedures described in Section 302 of the Internal Revenue Code. Any holder intending to waive family attribution for purposes of satisfying the requirement set forth is the preceding subsection (ii) should consult with his or her own tax advisor.

An exchange of Equity Shares for cash generally will be a substantially disproportionate redemption with respect to a U.S. holder if the percentage of the voting stock owned by such U.S. holder immediately after the exchange is less than 80% of the percentage of the voting stock owned by such U.S. holder immediately before the exchange and after the exchange the U.S. holder owns less than 50% of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock entitled to vote. In applying the Section 302 tests, each U.S. holder must take into account Equity Shares and ADSs that such U.S. holder constructively owns under certain attribution rules, pursuant to which a U.S. holder will be treated as owning any Equity Shares and ADSs owned by certain family members (which family attribution, in certain circumstances, may be waived) and related entities, and Equity Shares and ADSs that the U.S. holder has the right to acquire by exercise of an option. Each U.S. holder is expected to consult with its own tax advisor with respect to the application of such attribution rules given such U.S. holder’s particular circumstances.

56

If an exchange of Equity Shares for cash fails to satisfy the “substantially disproportionate” test, the U.S. holder may nonetheless satisfy the “not essentially equivalent to a dividend” test. An exchange of Equity Shares for cash will satisfy the “not essentially equivalent to a dividend” test if it results in a “meaningful reduction” of the U.S. holder’s equity interest in the Company given such U.S. holder’s particular facts and circumstances. The Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) has indicated in published rulings that a relatively minor reduction of the proportionate equity interest of a U.S. holder whose relative equity interest is minimal and who does not exercise any control over or participate in the management of corporate affairs should be treated as “not essentially equivalent to a dividend.” Each U.S. holder should consult its tax advisors regarding the application of the rules of Section 302 in its particular circumstances. Because the Section 302 tests are applied on a stockholder by stockholder basis, the Buyback may be a sale or exchange for certain U.S. holders and a distribution for others.

2.1 Sale or Exchange

Subject to the “passive foreign investment company” (“PFIC”) rules described below, if a U.S. holder is treated as recognizing gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes from the disposition of Equity Shares for cash, such gain or loss will be equal to the difference between the U.S. dollar value of the amount realized and the U.S. holder’s tax basis, determined in U.S. dollars, in the Equity Shares. Gain or loss recognized will be long-term capital gain or loss with respect to Equity Shares held for more than 12 months at the time of the sale or other disposition and any gain recognized generally will be income from sources within the United States for foreign tax credit limitation purposes. Long-term capital gains of non-corporate US holders are generally taxed at preferential rates. Capital gains realized by a U.S. holder upon sale of Equity Shares may be subject to tax in India, including withholding tax. See “Certain Tax Consequences of the Buyback for Non-Resident Shareholders – Indian Taxation.” Due to limitations on foreign tax credits, however, a U.S. holder may not be able to utilize any such taxes as a credit against the U.S. holder’s federal income tax liability. U.S. holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding the tax treatment to them if the buyback is treated as a sale or exchange.

2.2 Distribution

If a U.S. holder is not treated under the Section 302 tests as recognizing gain or loss on an exchange of Equity Shares for cash, such U.S. holder will be treated as having received a distribution from the Company. The gross amount of the distribution will generally be treated as dividend income to the extent made from the current or accumulated earnings and profits (as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles) of the Company. Such dividends will not be eligible for the dividends received deduction generally allowed to corporate U.S. holders. To the extent, if any, that the amount of the Buyback exceeds the Company’s current and accumulated earnings and profits as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles, such excess will be treated first as a tax-free return of the U.S. holder’s tax basis in the Equity Shares and thereafter as capital gain.

The Company does not intend to calculate its earnings and profits according to U.S. tax accounting principles. Accordingly, notwithstanding the discussion in the preceding paragraphs, if the Buyback is treated as a distribution on the Company’s Equity Shares, such distribution will generally be taxed to you as a dividend for U.S. tax purposes.

Subject to certain conditions and limitations, including the PFIC rules described below, dividends paid to non-corporate U.S. holders, including individuals, may be eligible for a reduced rate of taxation if the Company is deemed to be a “qualified foreign corporation” for U.S. federal income tax purposes. A qualified foreign corporation includes a foreign corporation if (1) its shares are readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States, or (2) it is eligible for the benefits under a comprehensive income tax treaty with the United States, including the Treaty. Based on existing guidance, it is not clear whether a dividend on an Equity Share will be treated as a qualified dividend, because the Equity Shares are not themselves listed on a U.S. exchange. However, the Company may be eligible for benefits under the Treaty. A corporation is not a qualified foreign corporation if it is a PFIC in the current taxable year or the prior taxable year (as discussed below).

EACH U.S. HOLDER SHOULD CONSULT ITS OWN TAX ADVISOR REGARDING THE TREATMENT OF DIVIDENDS AND SUCH HOLDER’S ELIGIBILITY FOR REDUCED RATE OF TAXATION UNDER THE LAW IN EFFECT FOR THE YEAR OF THE DIVIDEND AND WHETHER ANY FOREIGN TAX CREDITS ARE AVAILABLE TO IT IN RESPECT OF INDIAN WITHHOLDING TAX, IF ANY.

57

3. PASSIVE FOREIGN INVESTMENT COMPANY

A non-U.S. corporation will be classified as a PFIC for U.S. Federal income tax purposes if either:

• 75% or more of its gross income for the taxable year is passive income; or

• on average for the taxable year by value, if 50% or more of its assets produce or are held for the production of passive income.

The Company does not believe that it satisfies either of the tests for PFIC status for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019, and the Company does not expect to satisfy either of the tests for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2020. However, because this determination is made on an annual basis and depends on a variety of factors (including the Company’s market capitalization), no assurance can be given that the Company was not considered a PFIC for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019, or that the Company will not be considered a PFIC for the current fiscal year and/or future fiscal years. If the Company were to be a PFIC for any taxable year in which a U.S. holder owns Equity Shares or ADSs, U.S. holders would be required to pay an interest charge together with tax calculated at an ordinary income rates on “excess distributions,” as the term is defined in relevant provisions of U.S. tax laws, and on any gain on a sale or other disposition of Equity Shares, unless a U.S. holder makes a “QEF election” or a “mark-to-market” election, as described below. In addition, individual U.S. holders will not be eligible for the reduced rates of dividend taxation described above if the Company is a PFIC for the fiscal year of the dividend payment or the preceding taxable year.

If the Company is a PFIC in any year, so long as the Equity Shares or ADSs are and remain “marketable,” a U.S. holder may be able to avoid the excess distribution rules described above by having made a timely so-called “mark-to-market” election with respect to such U.S. holder’s Equity Shares or ADSs. However, because a mark-to-market election cannot be made for any lower-tier PFICs that the Company may own, a U.S. holder may continue to be subject to the PFIC rules with respect to any indirect interest in any investments held by us that are treated as an equity interest in a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes, including the Company’s subsidiaries. U.S. holders should consult their own tax advisors with respect to making a mark-to-market election and the tax consequences of the Buyback if such an election is in effect.

In addition, if the Company is a PFIC in any year, a U.S. holder might be able to avoid the excess distribution rules described above by making a timely so-called “qualified electing fund,” or QEF, election to be taxed currently on such holder’s pro rata portion of the Company’s income and gain. However, the Company has not provided information necessary for the QEF election, so such election would not have been available to U.S. holders.

In addition, certain information reporting obligations on IRS Form 8621 may apply to U.S. holders if the Company is determined to be a PFIC, including in the year of a sale or disposition.

4. BACKUP WITHHOLDING TAX AND INFORMATION REPORTING

Any dividends paid, or proceeds on a sale of, Equity Shares to or by a U.S. holder may be subject to U.S. information reporting, and backup withholding, currently at a rate of 24%, may apply unless such holder is an exempt recipient or provides a U.S. taxpayer identification number, certifies that such holder is not subject to backup withholding and otherwise complies with any applicable backup withholding requirements. Any amount withheld under the backup withholding rules will be allowed as a refund or credit against the holder’s U.S. federal income tax, provided that the required information is furnished to the Internal Revenue Service.

THE ABOVE SUMMARY IS NOT INTENDED TO BE A COMPLETE ANALYSIS OF ALL TAX CONSEQUENCES RELATING TO PARTICIPATION IN THE BUYBACK. YOU SHOULD CONSULT WITH YOUR OWN TAX ADVISORS REGARDING THE APPLICATION OF THE U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX LAWS TO YOUR PARTICULAR CIRCUMSTANCES, AS WELL AS ANY ADDITIONAL TAX CONSEQUENCES RESULTING FROM PARTICIPATION IN THE BUYBACK, INCLUDING THE APPLICABILITY AND EFFECT OF THE TAX LAWS OF ANY STATE, LOCAL OR NON-U.S. JURISDICTION AND ANY ESTATE, GIFT AND INHERITANCE LAWS.
