1 Significant Accounting Policies

Greater India Portfolio (the Portfolio) is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as a diversified, open-end management investment company. The Portfolio’s investment objective is to seek long-term capital appreciation. The Declaration of Trust permits the Trustees to issue interests in the Portfolio. At June 30, 2010, Eaton Vance Greater India Fund held a 99.9% interest in the Portfolio.

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies of the Portfolio. The policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

A Investment Valuation — Equity securities (including common shares of closed-end investment companies) listed on a U.S. securities exchange generally are valued at the last sale price on the day of valuation or, if no sales took place on such date, at the mean between the closing bid and asked prices therefore on the exchange where such securities are principally traded. Equity securities listed on the NASDAQ Global or Global Select Market generally are valued at the NASDAQ official closing price. Unlisted or listed securities for which closing sales prices or closing quotations are not available are valued at the mean between the latest available bid and asked prices or, in the case of preferred equity securities that are not listed or traded in the over-the-counter market, by a third party pricing service that will use various techniques that consider factors including, but not limited to, prices or yields of securities with similar characteristics, benchmark yields, broker/dealer quotes, quotes of underlying common stock, issuer spreads, as well as industry and economic events. Short-term debt securities purchased with a remaining maturity of sixty days or less are generally valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. Foreign securities and currencies are valued in U.S. dollars, based on foreign currency exchange rate quotations supplied by a third party pricing service. The pricing service uses a proprietary model to determine the exchange rate. Inputs to the model include reported trades and implied bid/ask spreads. The daily valuation of exchange-traded foreign securities generally is determined as of the close of trading on the principal exchange on which such securities trade. Events occurring after the close of trading on foreign exchanges may result in adjustments to the valuation of foreign securities to more accurately reflect their fair value as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange. When valuing foreign equity securities that meet certain criteria, the Trustees have approved the use of a fair value service that values such securities to reflect market trading that occurs after the close of the applicable foreign markets of comparable securities or other instruments that have a strong correlation to the fair-valued securities. Investments for which valuations or market quotations are not readily available or are deemed unreliable are valued at fair value using methods determined in good faith by or at the direction of the Trustees of the Portfolio in a manner that most fairly reflects the security’s value, or the amount that the Portfolio might reasonably expect to receive for the security upon its current sale in the ordinary course. Each such determination is based on a consideration of all relevant factors, which are likely to vary from one pricing context to another. These factors may include, but are not limited to, the type of security, the existence of any contractual restrictions on the security’s disposition, the price and extent of public trading in similar securities of the issuer or of comparable companies or entities, quotations or relevant information obtained from broker-dealers or other market participants, information obtained from the issuer, analysts, and/or the appropriate stock exchange (for exchange-traded securities), an analysis of the company’s or entity’s financial condition, and an evaluation of the forces that influence the issuer and the market(s) in which the security is purchased and sold.

B Investment Transactions — Investment transactions for financial statement purposes are accounted for on a trade date basis. Realized gains and losses on investments sold are determined on the basis of identified cost.

C Income — Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date for dividends received in cash and/or securities. However, if the ex-dividend date has passed, certain dividends from foreign securities are recorded as the Portfolio is informed of the ex-dividend date. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends and capital gains have been provided for in accordance with the Portfolio’s understanding of the applicable countries’ tax rules and rates. Interest income is recorded on the basis of interest accrued, adjusted for amortization of premium or accretion of discount.

D Federal Taxes — The Portfolio has elected to be treated as a partnership for federal tax purposes. No provision is made by the Portfolio for federal or state taxes on any taxable income of the Portfolio because each investor in the Portfolio is ultimately responsible for the payment of any taxes on its share of taxable income. Since at least one of the Portfolio’s investors is a regulated investment company that invests all or substantially all of its assets in the Portfolio, the Portfolio normally must satisfy the applicable source of income and diversification requirements (under the Internal Revenue Code) in order for its investors to satisfy them. The Portfolio will allocate, at least annually among its investors, each investor’s

Greater India Portfolio as of June 30, 2010

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) CONT’D

distributive share of the Portfolio’s net investment income, net realized capital gains and any other items of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit.

In addition to the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code, the Portfolio may also be subject to capital gains tax in India on gains realized upon disposition of Indian securities, payable prior to repatriation of sales proceeds. The tax is computed on net realized gains; any realized losses in excess of gains may be carried forward to offset future gains.

As of June 30, 2010, the Portfolio had no uncertain tax positions that would require financial statement recognition, de-recognition, or disclosure. Each of the Portfolio’s federal tax returns filed in the 3-year period ended December 31, 2009 remains subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service.

E Expense Reduction — State Street Bank and Trust Company (SSBT) serves as custodian of the Portfolio. Pursuant to the custodian agreement, SSBT receives a fee reduced by credits, which are determined based on the average daily cash balance the Portfolio maintains with SSBT. All credit balances, if any, used to reduce the Portfolio’s custodian fees are reported as a reduction of expenses in the Statement of Operations.

F Foreign Currency Translation — Investment valuations, other assets, and liabilities initially expressed in foreign currencies are translated each business day into U.S. dollars based upon current exchange rates. Purchases and sales of foreign investment securities and income and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars based upon currency exchange rates in effect on the respective dates of such transactions. Recognized gains or losses on investment transactions attributable to changes in foreign currency exchange rates are recorded for financial statement purposes as net realized gains and losses on investments. That portion of unrealized gains and losses on investments that results from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates is not separately disclosed.

G Use of Estimates — The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

H Indemnifications — Under the Portfolio’s organizational documents, its officers and Trustees may be indemnified against certain liabilities and expenses arising out of the performance of their duties to the Portfolio. Under Massachusetts law, if certain conditions prevail, interestholders in the Portfolio could be deemed to have personal liability for the obligations of the Portfolio. However, the Portfolio’s Declaration of Trust contains an express disclaimer of liability on the part of Portfolio interestholders and the By-laws provide that the Portfolio shall assume the defense on behalf of any Portfolio interestholder. Moreover, the By-laws also provide for indemnification out of Portfolio property of any interestholder held personally liable solely by reason of being or having been an interestholder for all loss or expense arising from such liability. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Portfolio enters into agreements with service providers that may contain indemnification clauses. The Portfolio’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Portfolio that have not yet occurred.

I Interim Financial Statements — The interim financial statements relating to June 30, 2010 and for the six months then ended have not been audited by an independent registered public accounting firm, but in the opinion of the Portfolio’s management, reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair presentation of the financial statements.

2 Investment Adviser Fee and Other Transactions with Affiliates

The investment adviser fee is earned by Lloyd George Investment Management (Bermuda) Limited (Lloyd George), an affiliate of Eaton Vance Management (EVM), as compensation for management and investment advisory services rendered to the Portfolio. The fee is computed at an annual rate of 0.75% of the Portfolio’s average daily net assets up to $500 million, 0.70% of average daily net assets from $500 million up to $1 billion and at reduced rates on daily net assets of $1 billion or more, and is payable monthly. For the six months ended June 30, 2010, the investment adviser fee was 0.73% (annualized) of the Portfolio’s average daily net assets and amounted to $2,695,735. In addition, an administration fee is earned by EVM for administering the business affairs of the Portfolio and is computed at an annual rate of 0.25% of the Portfolio’s average daily net assets up to $500 million, 0.233% of average daily net assets from $500 million up to $1 billion, and at reduced rates on daily net assets of $1 billion or more. For the six months ended June 30, 2010, the administration fee was 0.24% (annualized) of the Portfolio’s average daily net assets and amounted to $891,678.

Greater India Portfolio as of June 30, 2010

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) CONT’D

Except for Trustees of the Portfolio who are not members of EVM’s or Lloyd George’s organizations, officers and Trustees receive remuneration for their services to the Portfolio out of the investment adviser and administration fees. Certain officers and Trustees of the Portfolio are officers of the above organizations.

3 Purchases and Sales of Investments

Purchases and sales of investments, other than short-term obligations, aggregated $170,996,898 and $209,099,594, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2010.

4 Federal Income Tax Basis of Investments

The cost and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of investments of the Portfolio at June 30, 2010, as determined on a federal income tax basis, were as follows:


Aggregate cost	$	589,614,510


Gross unrealized appreciation	$	169,616,378
Gross unrealized depreciation		(49,522,843	)


Net unrealized appreciation	$	120,093,535

5 Line of Credit

The Portfolio participates with other portfolios and funds managed by EVM and its affiliates in a $450 million unsecured line of credit agreement with a group of banks. Borrowings are made by the Portfolio solely to facilitate the handling of unusual and/or unanticipated short-term cash requirements. Interest is charged to the Portfolio based on its borrowings at an amount above either the Eurodollar rate or Federal Funds rate. In addition, a fee computed at an annual rate of 0.10% on the daily unused portion of the line of credit is allocated among the participating portfolios and funds at the end of each quarter. Because the line of credit is not available exclusively to the Portfolio, it may be unable to borrow some or all of its requested amounts at any particular time. The Portfolio did not have any significant borrowings or allocated fees during the six months ended June 30, 2010.

6 Risks Associated with Foreign Investments

Investing in securities issued by companies whose principal business activities are outside the United States may involve significant risks not present in domestic investments. For example, there is generally less publicly available information about foreign companies, particularly those not subject to the disclosure and reporting requirements of the U.S. securities laws. Certain foreign issuers are generally not bound by uniform accounting, auditing, and financial reporting requirements and standards of practice comparable to those applicable to domestic issuers. Investments in foreign securities also involve the risk of possible adverse changes in investment or exchange control regulations, expropriation or confiscatory taxation, limitation on the removal of funds or other assets of the Portfolio, political or financial instability or diplomatic and other developments which could affect such investments. Foreign stock markets, while growing in volume and sophistication, are generally not as developed as those in the United States, and securities of some foreign issuers (particularly those located in developing countries) may be less liquid and more volatile than securities of comparable U.S. companies. In general, there is less overall governmental supervision and regulation of foreign securities markets, broker-dealers and issuers than in the United States. Settlement of securities transactions in the Indian sub-continent may be delayed and is generally less frequent than in the United States, which could affect the liquidity of the Portfolio’s assets. The Portfolio may be unable to sell securities where the registration process is incomplete and may experience delays in receipt of dividends.

7 India Tax Claims Receivable

The Portfolio is subject to certain Indian capital gains taxes in connection with transactions in Indian securities. The Indian tax authority conducted a review of the Portfolio’s tax returns filed for the years ended March 31, 2002 and 2001. In March 2004, the Indian tax authority assessed the Portfolio additional taxes for the 2000-2001 tax year and reduced the refund owed to the Portfolio for the 2001-2002 tax year, a net assessment of approximately $865,000. The Portfolio paid such amount to the Indian tax authority pending an appeal and recorded the amount as a receivable. During the year ended December 31, 2009, the Portfolio received notification that its appeal of the assessment was successful and that the tax authority was ordered to re-compute the amount of taxes due for the tax years noted above. As of June 30, 2010, the Portfolio received a full refund of the net assessment and related interest. The Portfolio received an additional refund of taxes of $633,600 resulting from the Indian tax authority’s re-computations, which is included in realized gains.

8 Fair Value Measurements

Under generally accepted accounting principles for fair value measurements, a three-tier hierarchy to prioritize the assumptions, referred to as inputs, is used in valuation techniques to measure fair value. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad levels listed below.


	•	Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical investments

	•	Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.)

Greater India Portfolio as of June 30, 2010

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) CONT’D


	•	Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including a fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

At June 30, 2010, the inputs used in valuing the Portfolio’s investments, which are carried at value, were as follows:

Eaton Vance Greater India Fund

BOARD OF TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL CONTRACT APPROVAL

Overview of the Contract Review Process

The Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), provides, in substance, that each investment advisory agreement between a fund and its investment adviser will continue in effect from year to year only if its continuance is approved at least annually by the fund’s board of trustees, including by a vote of a majority of the trustees who are not “interested persons” of the fund (“Independent Trustees”), cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of considering such approval.

At a meeting of the Boards of Trustees (each a “Board”) of the Eaton Vance group of mutual funds (the “Eaton Vance Funds”) held on April 26, 2010, the Board, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, voted to approve continuation of existing advisory and sub-advisory agreements for the Eaton Vance Funds for an additional one-year period. In voting its approval, the Board relied upon the affirmative recommendation of the Contract Review Committee of the Board, which is a committee comprised exclusively of Independent Trustees. Prior to making its recommendation, the Contract Review Committee reviewed information furnished for a series of meetings of the Contract Review Committee held between February and April 2010. Such information included, among other things, the following:

BOARD OF TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL CONTRACT APPROVAL CONT’D

In addition to the information identified above, the Contract Review Committee considered information provided from time to time by each adviser throughout the year at meetings of the Board and its committees. Over the course of the twelve-month period ended April 30, 2010, with respect to one or more Funds, the Board met ten times and the Contract Review Committee, the Audit Committee, the Governance Committee, the Portfolio Management Committee and the Compliance Reports and Regulatory Matters Committee, each of which is a Committee comprised solely of Independent Trustees, met nine, thirteen, three, eight and fifteen times, respectively. At such meetings, the Trustees received, among other things, presentations by the portfolio managers and other investment professionals of each adviser relating to the investment performance of each fund and the investment strategies used in pursuing the fund’s investment objective including, where relevant, the use of derivative instruments, as well as trading policies and procedures and risk management techniques.

For funds that invest through one or more underlying portfolios, the Board considered similar information about the portfolio(s) when considering the approval of advisory agreements. In addition, in cases where the fund’s investment adviser has engaged a sub-adviser, the Board considered similar information about the sub-adviser when considering the approval of any sub-advisory agreement.

The Contract Review Committee was assisted throughout the contract review process by Goodwin Procter LLP, legal counsel for the Independent Trustees. The members of the Contract Review Committee relied upon the advice of such counsel and their own business judgment in determining the material factors to be considered in evaluating each advisory and sub-advisory agreement and the weight to be given to each such factor. The conclusions reached with respect to each advisory and sub-advisory agreement were based on a comprehensive evaluation of all the information provided and not any single factor. Moreover, each member of the Contract Review Committee may have placed varying emphasis on particular factors in reaching conclusions with respect to each advisory and sub-advisory agreement.

Results of the Process

Based on its consideration of the foregoing, and such other information as it deemed relevant, including the factors and conclusions described below, the Contract Review Committee concluded that the continuance of the investment advisory agreement of Greater India Portfolio (the “Portfolio”), the portfolio in which Eaton Vance Greater India Fund (the “Fund”) invests, with Lloyd George Investment Management (Bermuda) Limited (the “Adviser”), as well as the administration agreement of the Portfolio with Eaton Vance Management (“EVM” or the “Administrator”) and the management contract of the Fund with the Administrator, including their fee structures, is in the interests of shareholders and, therefore, the Contract Review Committee recommended to the Board approval of each agreement. The Board accepted the recommendation of the Contract Review Committee as well as the factors considered and conclusions reached by the Contract Review Committee with respect to the agreements. Accordingly, the Board, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, voted to approve continuation of the investment advisory agreement for the Portfolio, the administration agreement for the Portfolio and the management contract for the Fund.

Nature, Extent and Quality of Services

In considering whether to approve the investment advisory agreement of the Portfolio, the administration agreement of the Portfolio and the management contract of the Fund, the Board evaluated the nature, extent and quality of services provided to the Portfolio by the Adviser and to the Fund and Portfolio by the Administrator.

The Board considered the Adviser’s and Administrator’s management capabilities and the Adviser’s investment process with respect to the types of investments held by the Portfolio, including the education, experience and number of its investment professionals and other personnel who provide portfolio management, investment research, and similar services to the Portfolio. The Board evaluated the abilities and experience of such investment personnel in analyzing factors such as special considerations relevant to investing in emerging markets, including Asia. The Board noted the Adviser’s experience in managing equity funds that invest in Asian securities. The Board noted that the Adviser maintains offices in London, Hong Kong, Singapore and Mumbai, providing its investment team with first hand knowledge of country and market factors affecting securities in which the Portfolio invests. The Board evaluated the level of skill and expertise required to manage the Portfolio and concluded that the human resources available at the Adviser were appropriate to fulfill effectively its duties on behalf of the Portfolio. The Board also took into account the resources dedicated to portfolio management and other services, including the compensation methods to recruit and retain investment personnel, and the time and attention devoted to the Portfolio by senior management.

The Board also reviewed the compliance programs of the Adviser, the Administrator and relevant affiliates thereof. Among other matters, the Board considered compliance and reporting matters relating to personal trading by investment personnel, selective disclosure of portfolio holdings, late trading, frequent trading, portfolio valuation, business continuity and the allocation of investment opportunities. The Board also evaluated the responses of the Adviser and Administrator and its affiliates to requests in recent years from the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority.

The Board evaluated the benefits to shareholders of investing in a fund that is a part of a large family of funds, including the ability, in many cases, to exchange an investment among different funds without incurring additional sales charges.

After consideration of the foregoing factors, among others, the Board concluded that the nature, extent and quality of services provided by the Adviser and the Administrator, taken as a whole, are appropriate and consistent with the terms of the investment advisory agreement, the administration agreement and the management contract, respectively.

Fund Performance

The Board compared the Fund’s investment performance to a relevant universe of comparable funds identified by an independent data provider as well as a peer group of similarly managed funds and appropriate benchmark indices. The Board reviewed comparative performance data for the one-, three-, five- and ten-year periods ended September 30, 2009 for the Fund. On the basis of the foregoing and other relevant information provided by the Adviser in response to inquiries from the Contract Review Committee, the Board concluded that the performance of the Fund was satisfactory.

Management Fees and Expenses

The Board reviewed contractual management fee rates, including any administrative fee rates, payable by the Portfolio and the Fund (referred to collectively as “management fees”). As part of its review, the Board considered the management fees and the Fund’s total expense ratio for the year ended September 30, 2009, as compared to a group of similarly managed funds selected by an independent data provider. The Board also considered factors that had an impact on Fund expense ratios, as identified by management in response to inquiries from the Contract Review Committee, as well as actions being taken to reduce expenses at the Eaton Vance fund complex level. The Board considered the fact that, in response to inquiries from the Contract Review Committee, the Adviser and the Administrator had undertaken to waive fees and/or pay expenses of the Fund permanently in an additional agreed upon amount, such reduction to be effective May 1, 2010.

After reviewing the foregoing information, and in light of the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Adviser and Administrator, the Board concluded that the management fees charged for advisory and related services are reasonable.

Profitability

The Board reviewed the level of profits realized by the Adviser and the Administrator and relevant affiliates thereof in providing investment advisory and administrative services to the Fund and the Portfolio and to all Eaton Vance Funds as a group. The Board considered the level of profits realized without regard to revenue sharing or other payments to third parties in respect of distribution services. The Board also considered other direct or indirect benefits received by the Adviser in connection with its relationship with the Portfolio, including the benefits of research services that may be available to the Adviser as a result of securities transactions effected for the Portfolio and other investment advisory clients.

The Board concluded that, in light of the foregoing factors and the nature, extent and quality of the services rendered, the profits realized by the Adviser and the Administrator are reasonable.

Economies of Scale

In reviewing management fees and profitability, the Board also considered the extent to which the Adviser and Administrator, on the one hand, and the Portfolio and the Fund, on the other hand, can expect to realize benefits from economies of scale as the assets of the Fund and the Portfolio increase. The Board acknowledged the difficulty in accurately measuring the benefits resulting from the economies of scale with respect to the management of any specific fund or group of funds. The Board reviewed data summarizing the increases and decreases in the assets of the Fund and of all Eaton Vance Funds as a group over various time periods, and evaluated the extent to which the total expense ratio of the Fund and the Adviser’s and Administrator’s profitability may have been affected by such increases or decreases. Based upon the foregoing, the Board concluded that the benefits from economies of scale are currently being shared equitably by the Adviser and the Administrator, on the one hand, and the Fund on the other hand. The Board also concluded that the structure of the management fees, which include breakpoints at several asset levels, can be expected to cause such benefits to continue to be shared equitably.
