9 SECTION II – RISK FACTORS

RISK ENVISAGED BY MANAGEMENT AND MANAGEMENT PERCEPTIONS THEREOF

Any investment in Equity Shares involves a high degree of risk and so you should carefully consider all of the information in this Letter of Offer including the risks and uncertainties described below before you make an investment decision. Risks have been quantified, wherever possible. If any of the following risks actually occur, our business, financial condition and results of operations could suffer, the trading price of our Equity Shares could decline and you may lose all or part of your investment.

The financial and other implications of material impact of risks concerned, wherever quantifiable, have been disclosed in the risk factors mentioned below. However there are few risk factors where the impact is not quantifiable and hence the same has not been disclosed in such risk factors. The numbering of risk factors has been done to facilitate ease of reading and reference and does not in any manner indicate importance of one risk factor over another.

Market data used throughout this Letter of Offer was obtained primarily from internal company reports, data, industry publications. The information contained in the Letter of Offer has been obtained from sources believed to be reliable, but their accuracy and completeness and underlying assumptions are not guaranteed and their reliability cannot be assured. Although, the Company believes that the market data used in this Letter of Offer is reliable, it has not been independently verified. Similarly, internal Company reports and data, while believed to be reliable, have not been verified by any independent source.

Materiality

The Risk factors have been determined on the basis of their materiality. The following factors have been considered for determining the materiality:- a) Some events may not be material individually but may be found material collectively. b) Some events may have material impact qualitatively instead of quantitatively. c) Some events may not be material at present but may be having material impacts in future.

Note: - Unless specified or quantified in the relevant risk factors below, we are not in a position to quantify the financial or other implications of any of the risks described in this section.

RISK FACTORS INTERNAL TO OUR COMPANY

1. Our Company has defaulted in repayment of public fixed deposits in the past.

Our Company was engaged in the business of retail financing and accepted fixed deposits from public in the normal course of business. Our NBFC registration was cancelled by RBI vide its order No. DNBS (Ch) / 2642/ Che 00053/99-2000 dated November 1, 1999, in view of various reasons like inadequate capital structure, insufficient net owned funds, realizable value of assets being less than the outside liabilities, inadequate liquidity ratio, payment of brokerage in excess of limits, non-adherence to prudential norms guidelines in respect of asset classification, provisioning and non-recognition of income in respect of loans and advances, bills discounted / purchased, default in repaying fixed deposits, excess holding of fixed deposit and excess exposure in real estate. In view of cancellation of NBFC registration by RBI, our Company had to stop retail financing business, which further accentuated the default in repayment of public fixed deposits.

2. Our Company, Promoters and promoter group companies are involved in certain legal and regulatory proceedings that, if determined against us, could have an adverse impact.

The following table sets out the summary details of pending litigation against our Company and our Promoter Group Companies:

10 Our Company

Category No. of Litigation Aggregate amount Involved Civil (against the company) 3 116 lakhs Civil (filed by the company) 1 623 lakhs

Against Promoter / Director

Category No. of Litigation Aggregate amount Involved Civil 1 Claims are not quantifiable and in view of this, not ascertainable Criminal 1 Claims are not quantifiable and in view of this, not ascertainable

Promoter Group Company

Category No. of Litigation Aggregate amount Involved Civil 9 1119 lakhs Criminal 2 3050 lakhs

For further details, please refer to the section titled “Outstanding Litigation and Material Developments” on page [.] of this Letter of Offer.

3. Our NBFC license was cancelled by RBI due to defaults in repayment of fixed deposits and non- compliance with certain NBFC norms issued by RBI.

In 1997, Reserve Bank of India notified revised guidelines for registration of companies as NBFC in India. These guidelines were made applicable to all the then existing registered NBFC companies. Consequently our Company was also required to make an application for re-registration and RBI was to examine the applications for granting such registrations. RBI examined the applications and granted registration to some companies and de-registered remaining companies. The registration of our NBFC status was cancelled by RBI and the reasons for rejection of application for re-registration with RBI as a NBFC include inadequate capital structure, insufficient net owned funds, realizable value of assets being less than the outside liabilities, inadequate liquidity ratio, payment of brokerage in excess of limits, non- adherence to prudential norms guidelines in respect of asset classification, provisioning and non- recognition of income in respect of loans and advances, bills discounted / purchased, default in repaying fixed deposits, excess holding of fixed deposit and excess exposure in real estate.

4. Our Company has defaulted in repayment of Dues to Banks in past and has entered into One Time Settlement with certain Banks.

Our Company has borrowed funds for long-term and short-term purposes from Karnataka Bank, Bank of Baroda, State Bank of Mysore, State Bank of Hyderabad and Bank of Rajasthan in past and the aggregate outstanding amount on the basis of Consolidated Financial Statements as on September 30, 2010 is Rs. 649.85 Lakhs. We have defaulted in payment of our dues to these banks due to the financial difficulties faced by us arising out of non-recovery of retail loans made to our customers and losses incurred. We are settling our outstanding dues with Bank of Baroda, Karnataka Bank, State Bank of Hyderabad by way of One Time Settlement (OTS) and are in the process of complying with the terms and conditions of respective OTS. We are yet to reach OTS with State Bank of Mysore where the outstanding dues as per the books of account are Rs. 412.99 lakhs.

Bank of Rajasthan has seized some of the assets of our Company charged to Bank and we believe that the said bank has recovered the outstanding loan amount from sale of the assets. However, we are yet to receive the intimation for realization of asset and set off of outstanding liability towards principal and interest.

In 1997, Reserve Bank of India notified revised guidelines for registration of companies as NBFC in India. These guidelines were made applicable to all the then existing registered NBFC companies. Consequently our Company was also required to make an application for re-registration and RBI was to examine the applications for granting such registrations. RBI examined the applications and granted 11 registration to some companies and de-registered remaining companies. The registration of our Company was cancelled and the company had to stop its retail financing business which resulted into substantial financial losses and substantial financial liabilities on the company.

The liabilities towards principal and interest of each bank have been worked out by us internally and there may be possibility that the actual outstanding and overdue amount as per the bank records may be different. Further, Banks reserve the right to withdraw the concessions granted under OTS and forfeit the amount of money paid towards principal and interest worked out as per OTS in the event of non- fulfillment or delayed fulfillment of terms and conditions as agreed in One Time Settlement.

Further, in the event of default for repayment or late payment of availed bank facilities including interest, charges, penalties, or any other dues, banks in addition to other rights have, legal right to seize, take possession, sell /lease the assets charged by our Company, Directors and Promoters of our Company by virtue of various loan documents executed by our Company, Directors and Promoters.

For further details as to the outstanding litigation filed by or against Banks / Financial Institutions, please refer to the page 168 of the “Legal and other information” of this letter of offer.

5. Our Company was originally incorporated as an investment company and appeared in the list of defaulting companies on the website of CIBIL.

Our Company had defaulted in repayment of fixed deposits of about Rs.2.35 crores during 2001 – 02. Kaashyap Technologies Ltd., doing the business under the same brand name, took over the liabilities of the three companies, namely, our Company, RKCAL and RKCPL with a bonafide intention to save its brand name “Kaashyap, though it did not have any commitment or responsibility towards the liabilities of the said three companies.” Pursuant to such takeover, KTL acknowledged the liabilities of the subscribers and depositors of the said companies and agreed to pay dues on a certain date. Due to unforeseen circumstances, KTL was not able to honour the commitment stated above on the due dates. Therefore, KTL formulated a scheme of arrangement with all the depositors and got appropriate sanction from Hon’ble High Court, Madras, in C.P.No. 204 of 2003, vide order dated 03.11.2004 to repay the fixed deposits over a period of 5 years. As per the Certificate of R. Ravindran, Chartered Accountants, dated 22 nd June 2010, KTL is yet to pay Rs. 25 lakhs to depositors.

6. Loan Agreements with bankers contain several restrictive covenants. This could adversely affect our ability to conduct our business.

Our Company has borrowed funds for long-term and short-term purposes from Karnataka Bank, Bank of Baroda, State Bank of Mysore, State Bank of Hyderabad and Bank of Rajasthan in past and the aggregate outstanding amount on the basis of Consolidated Financial Statements as on September 30, 2010 is Rs. 649.85 Lakhs. Most of our loans have been secured by way of a hypothecation charge on vehicles and book debts. Bank Loan Agreements generally contain restrictive covenants and as borrowers, we are subject to restrictive covenants in agreements entered into with our Bankers for our short-term loans and long-term borrowings. Summary of the major restrictive covenants of loan agreements are as under:

 Create any charge, encumbrance or otherwise dispose of or remove assets offered as security,  Declare any dividend on our share capital except out of profits relating to that year after making all due and  Necessary provisions and we should not have failed to meet our obligations to pay the interest and/or  Commission and/or installment or other money payable to the said bank,  Make any major change in the management involving transfer of ownership; and  Enter into any scheme of merger, amalgamation, reconstruction or consolidation or any scheme of arrangement or compromise for the benefit of our creditors.

We have defaulted in payment of our dues to these banks due to the financial difficulties faced by us arising out of non-recovery of retail loans made to our customers and losses incurred. As a part of the recovery proceedings initiated by Banks, Our Company has entered in to One Time Settlement (OTS) to clear the outstanding dues with Bank of Baroda, Karnataka Bank and State Bank of Hyderabad and are in

12 the process of complying with the terms and conditions of respective OTS arrangements. Under the revised terms of payment by way of OTS, the aforesaid banks have agreed to the terms mutually decided in OTS arrangement, hence the aforesaid restrictive covenants may not be applicable in respect of respective banks except in case of breach of terms of OTS arrangement.

We are yet to reach OTS with State Bank of Mysore where the outstanding dues as per the books of account are Rs. 412.99 lakhs. Bank of Rajasthan has seized some of the assets of our Company charged to Bank and has recovered the outstanding loan amount from sale of the assets.

Failure to meet these conditions or obtain these consents could have significant consequences for our business.

7. We have no operating history in entertainment business and might not be able to operate our business or implement our growth strategies successfully.

We have forayed into entertainment business on December 30, 2009 by acquiring 100% shares of Tamil Box Office (India) Private Limited (TBO-India), which has a wholly owned subsidiary company in Singapore viz. Tamil Box Office Singapore Pte. Ltd. (TBO Singapore). The 24 x 7 Tamil Movie and Movie based Entertainment Channel, TBO, is operated through TBO-Singapore. TBO-Singapore has acquired this movie Channel from Pixel Box Office Pte. Ltd., Singapore in October 2009. We have also acquired 100% shares of Pix Aalaya Studios Private Limited on December 30, 2009, a Company intending to engage into Webstreaming of movie content on internet portal. We also propose to enter in to distribution of overseas rights of South Indian movies.

However, our promoters have exposure of more than 15 years in Entertainment and Media Industry. Our Promoter Mr. A. Venkatramani has been associated with Entertainment and Media Industry since 1994 and has been associated with leading South Indian Television Channels like Sun TV, Jaya TV and Raj TV, etc. by producing Television serials and distributing Tamil movies through its group concerns and companies where he has served as a director. Mr. Jude Jeyaprakash, who has joined as a Co-promoter has been in entertainment and media industry and has considerable experience. For detailed profile of our promoters, please refer to the Section titled “Promoters” of this Letter of Offer. Therefore, based on the past experience, our promoters would be in a position to carry out the business in Entertainment and Media sector.

In view of the pre-occupancy of Mrs. Usha Venkatramani in her other business ventures, M/s. Kaashyap Productions has become a non functional firm for the purpose of production of tele-serials for last 7-8 years, however the firm has been carrying on the consultancy services business .

8. Our Company did not have any operation during the period from 1999 – 2006.

In January 1997, Reserve Bank of India notified revised guidelines for registration of companies as NBFC in India. These guidelines were made applicable to all the then existing registered NBFC Companies. In other words, they were also required to make an application for re-registration and RBI was to examine the applications for granting such registrations. These applications were to be made by July 1997. Thereafter, RBI examined the applications and granted registration to some companies and de-registered remaining companies. As the registration of our Company was cancelled vide order no. DNBS (Ch) / 2642/ Che 00053/99-2000 dated November 1, 1999, the company had to stop its retail financing business as it could not comply with the said guidelines.

During the years 1999 to 2006, the Issuer Company was engaged in recovering its old outstanding receivables. During the years 2007 to 2009, the Issuer Company was engaged into Consultancy Services, Software Development and Trading of Securities.

9. The shares of our Company were suspended from BSE during the period from October 1, 2002 to June 9, 2008 due to non-compliances of various provisions of Listing Agreement.

On cancellation of NBFC registration by RBI, Our Company was going through a worse phase with virtually no business. Number of key managerial personnel left the Company creating a vacuum in 13 various operational areas leading to non compliance of submission of various periodical reports like financial results, corporate governance reports, etc. On account of non compliance of various provisions of the Listing Agreement, the shares of our Company were suspended for trading from BSE w.e.f. October 1, 2002. We complied with all the pending statutory requirements as required under the Listing Agreement and obtained revocation of suspension from BSE w.e.f. June 9, 2008.

10. History and chronology of original subscription/ allotment made during the period prior to year from inception to 2007 are not traceable.

Our Company had lost certain details and records viz. Form No. 5 for effecting the increase in authorised capital, Form No. 2 for return of allotments, etc. with respect to history and chronology of increase in authorised capital, subscription/ allotment made prior to year 2007. However, ownership of these equity shares as of now has no ambiguity and all of our pre-issue equity shares are duly listed on BSE and MSE and have been properly recorded with Registrar of Companies.

11. All the Key Management Personnel have been in the employment of the company since October 2009 only.

Our Company has forayed into entertainment business on December 30, 2009 by acquiring 100% shares Tamil Box Office (India) Private Limited (TBO-India), which has a wholly owned subsidiary company in Singapore viz. Tamil Box Office Singapore Pte. Ltd.(TBO Singapore). The 24 x 7 Tamil Movie and Movie based Entertainment Channel, TBO, is operated through TBO-Singapore. TBO-Singapore has acquired this movie Channel from Pixel Box Office Pte. Ltd., Singapore in October 2009. We have also acquired 100% shares of Pix Aalaya Studios Private Limited on December 30, 2009, a Company intending to engage into Webstreaming of movie content on internet portal.

In view of acquisition of aforesaid companies, our Company employed Key Managerial Personnel to operate and manage the business. Our success depends on the continued services and performance of the members of the senior management team and key employees. Competition for senior and experienced personnel in the industry is intense at present. The loss of the services of our senior management or key personnel could seriously impair our ability to continue to manage and expand our business, which may adversely affect our financial condition.

12. We have not registered our brand i. e. ‘TBO’ Movie Channel and we do not have a registered trademark.

We operate our 24 x 7 Tamil Movie Television channel in the name of “TBO” through our step down subsidiary company i.e. Tamil Box Office (Singapore) Pte. Ltd. “TBO” is not yet registered as brand or trademark with the appropriate authority. In the event of non registration of “TBO” brand, it may be difficult to protect our brand from unauthorized use which may adversely affect our business operations, financial results and future prospects.

13. We do not have IPR protection for the entertainment programmes produced by our Subsidiary i.e. Tamil Box Office India Pvt. Ltd.

Our wholly owned subsidiary Company i.e. Tamil Box Office India Pvt. Ltd. has produced Tamil movie related entertainment programmes comprising of about 1914 hours as on September 30, 2010 like song shows, comedy shows, short movie shows, review shows, interactive shows, talent shows, competition shows, etc. These programmes are broadcasted in TBO channel at regular intervals. We believe that our programmes are the unique identity of our channel and help us to reach our target audience. We have so far not made application for registering the IPR rights of these programmes and in the event of non- registration, it may be difficult to prevent unauthorized parties from infringing upon or misappropriating our programmes which may result into reduction in financial and qualitative value of the programme for our company.

14 Risk Factors – specific to Project

14. The success of our business is highly dependent on our ability to attract viewers to our Channel.

We cannot predict the economic success of our TV Channel business as the revenue derived from telecast of our “TBO” movie channel depends primarily upon its acceptance by the public, which cannot be accurately predicted. The economic success also depends on other factors e.g. Tamil speaking population in particular country/region, viewer preferences, and programme format etc.

The economic success of movie channel also depends upon the public‘s acceptance of competing productions and the availability of alternative forms of entertainment and leisure time activities, all of which can change and cannot be predicted with certainty.

TBO India is engaged in production of movie based entertainment programmes and as on September 30, 2010 has produced programme content of 1914 hours comprising of song shows, comedy shows, short movie shows, review shows, interactive shows, talent shows and competition shows. TBO Singapore is subsidiary of TBO India and engaged in broadcasting of its 24 hours channel TBO. Channel TBO has been in operation since 2006. The Channel has focused on providing content comprising of Tamil Movies, movie clippings, songs, trailers and movie based entertainment programmes.

Presently we telecast our “TBO” movie channel in countries like , and . If we are unable in the future to continue to exploit the available movie library or other programme content adequately, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.

15. There is no proven formula for success of an entertainment program / serial in Television Industry.

The success of business depends on ability to consistently create entertainment programs of substance and quality and telecast them to meet the changing preferences of the broad consumer market internationally.

16. Our future expansion plans are aggressive and failure to pursue future expansion plans shall affect our business growth & future revenues.

We operate 24 x 7 Tamil Movie and movie based entertainment programme Channel through a Step- down subsidiary company in Singapore viz. Tamil Box Office Singapore Pte. Ltd. and telecasts 24 x 7 Tamil movies and movie based entertainment programmes in countries like Sri Lanka, Malaysia and Middle East. We cater to Tamil Diaspora residing in these countries. Our TBO Channel is telecast in these countries on fixed fees contracts as well as on subscription based contracts. We plan to expand our reach by telecasting our channel in US, , UK, , Australia and New Zealand, where Tamil population is significantly large.

The above strategies should be on a continuous basis and marketing of channel is also very important. If we fail to pursue the same, our business would become stagnant or even decline. If we are unable in the future to continue to exploit the available movie library or other programme content adequately, it could have a material adverse effect on our business growth and future revenues.

17. The revenues of the channel are based on subscription & fixed fee contract. Hence, our Company’s growth & profitability is dependent on subscription nos. and fixed fee contracts.

We have adopted different revenue models for broadcasting our channel which are vogue in different territories. In Middle East region, we receive a share in the subscription revenues from our distributor. Subscription revenues are determined based on the number of subscribers and the subscription rate per connection.

In Malaysia and Sri Lanka, we have fixed fee contract with MEASAT Broadcast Network Systems and Voice of Asia Networks Ltd. respectively and receive revenues on monthly basis. We do not receive any part of advertisement income earned by our distributors in these territories.

15 In the event of our channel not being popular, the number of subscribers may not grow or remain stagnant or even reduce which would adversely affect our business, operations and profitability. In case, we are unable to revise our fixed fee contracts favourably, we may not be able to recover our fixed and variable costs and may incur losses.

18. We are new to Overseas Rights Distribution business and we intend to deploy significant portion of the proceeds of the Issue for Overseas Rights Distribution.

We do not have experience in the Overseas Rights Distribution business and commercial success of this business depends on our ability to procure rights of movies, which will be a commercial success, at competitive prices where we can generate returns from the investments made. We cannot assure that we will be able to identify right partners or distributors for exploiting the theatrical and VCD/DVD rights of the movies, that we acquire, in the major territories like Singapore, Malaysia, Middle East, Canada, Sri Lanka, USA and , Moreover the overseas rights market is dominated by handful of players, we may not be able to compete with them in acquisition of rights of the films from the producers and at right price. .We propose to utilize appx. Rs. 2078.50 lakhs being 59.12% of the Issue proceeds towards the acquisition of overseas rights of southern Indian movies.

However, we believe that the promoters Mr. A.Venkataramani and Mr.Jude Jeyaprakash have experience of more than 15 years in the entertainment and media industry and expect that we would be able carry out our business in overseas rights distribution effectively.

19. Piracy of film content, including digital and Internet piracy, may decrease revenue received from the exploitation of our overseas rights.

Piracy of motion pictures and content is extensive in many parts of the world and is made easier by technological advances and the conversion of motion pictures into digital formats, which facilitates the creation, transmission and sharing of high quality unauthorized copies of motion pictures in theatrical release, on videotapes and DVDs, from pay-per-view through set top boxes and other devices and through unlicensed broadcasts on free TV and the Internet. The proliferation of unauthorized copies and piracy of these products may have an adverse affect on our business because these products would reduce the revenue that we would receive from the exploitation of overseas rights.

Piracy and revenue losses at the last-mile are the bane of the entertainment industry. They prevent the rightful owners of the content from realising its full value. All sectors of the industry, except radio, suffer from these twin predicaments in some way or the other. In India typically 70 percent is collected over three months, after which piracy catches up and virtually nullifies any further theatre revenue potential. There are a large number of video rental shops across the country, many of which thrive on pirated videos. It is difficult to estimate the combined revenues of these rental shops but the impact it has on eroding theatrical revenues is significant. Currently, such losses are estimated at INR 4.3 billion, which amounts to over 40 percent of the industry's total revenues. (Source: India Entertainment Industry Focus 2010: Dream to Reality CII-KPMG Report)

Existing and upcoming technological or legal protection measures may or may not reduce unlicensed replication and distribution of film content. If the above measures are not successful we may lose an indeterminate amount of additional revenue as a result of piracy.

20. We intend to repay part of the outstanding liabilities towards secured and unsecured creditors out of the funds proposed to be raised from this Issue.

Our Company intends to utilize approx. Rs.350 Lakhs from the proceeds of this Rights Issue towards part repayment of outstanding liabilities with secured and unsecured creditors. In the event of any shortfall in using the net proceeds of the rights issue as described in the objects of the Issue, our Company will reduce the amount of repayment. In the event of any surplus, the management, in accordance with the policies established by the Board, will have flexibility in applying such surplus towards repayment.

For the reasons mentioned under Chapter titled “Business Overview” beginning on page 74 of this document and in the absence of proper business activities, we have had negative cash flows from operating activity, investing activity and financing activity during financial year 2004-05 to 2009-10 and for the period ended September 30, 2010, as indicated in the table below: (Rs. in lakhs) For the period ended 2009-10 2005- Particulars 2008-09 2007-08 2006-07 Sep 30, 2010 (Consolidated) 06 (consolidated) Net Cash Flow from Operating Activities (69.29) 31.41 (62.60) (16.62) 78.43 (1.57) Net Cash Flow from Investing Activities 34.14 (369.32) (0.49) (11.25) - - Net Cash Flow from Financing Activities 37.93 349.47 60.50 28.80 (75.48) 1.57

17 24. The Company might have contingent liabilities if the banks annul the OTS arrangements.

The Company has entered into OTS arrangements with three of its bankers. There are delays in the payment of installments as envisaged in the OTS Arrangements. In case, the bankers annul the OTS arrangements citing non-compliance with the OTS Terms, the liability of the Company may go up which at present is not quantifiable.

In the event that any of these contingent liabilities materialize, our financial condition may be adversely affected. For further information, please refer to Annexure 14 of our restated financial statements as on September 30, 2010, on page 121 of this Letter of Offer.

25. If we are unable to obtain the necessary funds for our growth plans, our business and operations will be adversely affected.

We require comparatively large funds for our business as proposed herein. Our ability to finance these plans is subject to a number of risks, contingencies and other factors, some of which are beyond our control, including general economic and capital markets conditions and our ability to obtain financing on acceptable terms.

There can be no assurance that debt or equity financing or our internal accruals will be available or sufficient to meet the funding of our growth plans. Our ability to obtain required capital on acceptable terms is subject to a variety of uncertainties, including:

 Limitations on our ability to avail additional debt, including as a result of prospective lenders’ evaluations of our creditworthiness and pursuant to restrictions on incurrence of debt in our existing and anticipated credit facilities;  Investors' and lenders' perception of, and demand for, debt and equity securities of Entertainment company as well as the offerings of competing financing and investment opportunities in India by our competitors;  Whether it is necessary to provide credit support or other assurances from our Promoter on terms and conditions and in amounts that are commercially acceptable to them;  Limitations on our ability to raise capital in the capital markets and conditions of the Indian, U.S. and other capital markets in which we may seek to raise funds; and  Our future results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.

Any inability on our part to raise funds for our growth plans may adversely affect our business operations. However, for details about the “Objects of the Issue”, “Cost of the Project / Fund Requirements and Means of Finance” and “Details of the use of Rights Issue Proceeds”, please refer to Section IV entitled “Particulars of the Issue” beginning on page 47 of this Letter of Offer.

26. The issue of rights shares for funding the business plans may not be a right managerial decision in a loss making company.

The existing promoters and management have been trying to perform necessary duties in meeting out the statutory and commercial obligations in the company since it’s de-registration as an NBFC. The shareholders of the company have not gained from their investment in the company during this period of time. The existing promoters and management have explored profitable business activities for the company. The debt restructuring, deposit repayment arrangement and losses have brought equity subscription as the option for funding business plans. In view of the above, giving an opportunity to the existing shareholders for participating in the future business of the company should be considered as right managerial decision for the company. The promoters have also given undertaking for bringing or arranging the minimum subscription in the rights issue of shares.

27. We will face competition from other established companies and future entrants into the industry.

Our Company will be competing with the existing channels like Astro Box Office Movie Thanggathirai (24 hrs pay-per view Tamil channel) in Malaysia, Vannathirai - a 24hr movie channel in Singapore, DAN TV, Nethra TV, Shakthi TV, Vasantham TV in Srilanka, Tamil One and Tamil Vision

18 International Cable TVs in Canada, Cee I TV in UK, Ayngaran TV, Deepam TV, GTV (Global Tamil Vision), globally.

In the past few years, there has been increase in number of Tamil channels. This additional supply of channels in various markets will affect the viewer subscription and views per viewer. Our profit margin may reduce in case of fall in subscription, which would have an impact on our share prices. However, competition also brings market, overall public awareness, distribution strength and quality in the content which is considered as good for the public.

28. Our success significantly depends on our management and operational teams and other skilled professionals. If we fail to retain, motivate and/or attract such personnel, our business may be unable to grow and our revenues could decline, which may decrease the value of our Equity Shares.

Our success depends on the continued services and performance of the members of the senior management team and key employees. Competition for senior and experienced personnel in the industry is intense at present. The loss of the services of our senior management or key personnel could seriously impair our ability to continue to manage and expand our business, which may adversely affect our financial condition.

29. Our company has not declared any dividends for the past 5 years. Our ability to pay dividends in the future will depend upon future earnings, financial condition, cash flows, working capital requirements and capital expenditures.

In view of continued losses, our Company has not declared any dividends for the past 5 years. The amount of our future dividend payments, if any, will depend upon our future earnings, financial condition, cash flows, working capital requirements and capital expenditures. There can be no assurance that we will be able to pay dividends. Additionally, we may be restricted by the terms of any future debt financing in relation to the payment of dividends.

30. Our management will have flexibility in applying the Net Proceeds for the Objects of the Issue.

We intend to use the Net Proceeds that we receive from the Issue for the purposes described in Objects of the Issue on page 47 of Letter of Offer. Our management may determine that it is appropriate to revise our estimated costs, funding requirements and deployment schedule owing to certain factors. Further, in the event of any shortfall of funds for any purposes of the “Objects of the Issue”, we may decide to reallocate the Net Proceeds from other purposes of the “Objects of the Issue” where such shortfall has arisen.

However pending utilization of the Net Proceeds of the Issue and other financings during intermediate period, we intend to invest such Net Proceeds in interest-bearing liquid instruments including money market mutual funds and bank deposits, as approved by our Board of Directors. Although the utilization of the Net Proceeds and other financing will be monitored by the Board of Directors, there are no limitations on interim investments that we can make using the Net Proceeds. In addition, any balance amount from the Net Proceeds which may be allocated to general corporate purposes will be used at the discretion of our management.

31. The promoters of our Company control less than 25% shareholding in our Company and may not be able to effectively control the operations of the Company.

Our promoter shareholders will hold approximately 11.68% of our post issue equity share capital. The promoters of our Company have given undertaking to subscribe to their portion of entitlement in this rights issue as well as subscribe for additional shares or subscription for any remaining unsubscribed portion of the rights issue either through themselves or by arranging funds from others. So long as our promoter shareholders along with the entities / body corporates controlled by them owns less than 51% of equity share capital of our Company, they may not be able to effectively control the composition of Board of Directors and Management of our Company. In view of the limited shareholding of our promoters in our Company, we may also face threats like hostile takeover bids, management buy outs, etc. Further, our existing promoters may not effectively take decisions in regard to election of our entire Board of Directors and control most matters affecting us, any determinations with respect to mergers, 19 business combinations and acquisitions or dispositions of assets.

32. The equity shares of our Company are not frequently traded / or are illiquid.

The equity shares of our company are infrequently traded i.e. the annualized trading turnover is less than 5% of the paid-up equity share capital. As the shares are infrequently traded, there is limited trading of our Equity Shares. There can be no assurance that an active trading market for our Equity Shares will develop or be sustained after this Issue, or that the prices at which our Equity Shares are initially traded will correspond to the prices at which our Equity Shares will trade in the market subsequent to this Issue. Our share price is likely to be volatile and may decline post issue. Our Equity Shares may experience price and volume fluctuations or an active trading market for our Equity Shares may not develop.

33. The Equity Shares of Kaashyap Technologies Limited were suspended from Trading for a period of 5 days from the Bombay Stock Exchange Ltd. during September 2006.

The Securities of Kaashyap Technologies Limited (KTL), one of our group company, were suspended from Trading for 5 days by the Bombay Stock Exchange Limited in September 2006 since KTL had not complied with certain requirements of the Listing Agreement with BSE. However, it had complied with all such requirements before even the suspension period had commenced. Therefore, instead of suspending the securities of the company for indefinite period, BSE suspended the securities of KTL from trading for a period of 5 trading days from 20th September 2006 to 26th September 2006.

34. Termination of our distribution contracts in different countries may have a material effect on our business, financial conditions and results of operations

TBO Singapore has received a Letter of Intent from ASTRO, Television Broadcaster in Malaysia i.e. Measat Broadcast Network Systems SDN BHD for grant of exclusive rights by TBO - Singapore to broadcast or otherwise make available the programmes included in the Channel which have been produced by or for the TBO – India. Voice of Asia Network (Private) Ltd.

Our Company has entered into an agreement with Channel 2 Group Corporation having office at Dubai for distribution of our TBO Channel on the Arab Digital Distribution (ADD) platform by DTH route.

The promoters have taken due care about business risk management by spread out distribution arrangement yet any termination of contracts may have adverse affect on our business, operations and finances.

35. We have entered into certain related party transactions in Past.

We have entered, and may continue to enter, into transactions with related parties. We also rely on our Promoters, Group Entities, subsidiaries, associates and enterprises controlled by our Directors for certain activities of our Organization. In fiscal 2009, we entered into related party transactions with our promoters, directors, subsidiaries companies, group concerns and associate concerns. The details of transactions with related parties are given in Section-“Restated Financial Statements” at Annexure-15.

All our related party transactions have been conducted on an arm’s length basis, we cannot assure you that we could not have achieved more favorable terms had such transactions been entered into with unrelated parties.

However, the auditors’ qualifications, which are of qualitative nature, do not require restatement and hence has not been dealt with.

RISK FACTORS EXTERNAL TO OUR COMPANY

37. The market value of your investment may fluctuate due to the volatility of the Indian securities Market.

Indian securities markets may be more volatile than the securities markets in other developed countries. The Stock Exchanges have, in the past, experienced substantial fluctuations in the prices of listed securities.

The Stock Exchanges have experienced problems, inter alia, including temporary exchange closures, broker defaults, settlement delays and strikes by brokers and/or other intermediaries in the securities market. If such or similar problems were to continue or recur, could affect the market price and liquidity of the securities of Indian companies, including the Rights Equity Shares. In addition, the governing bodies of the Stock Exchanges have from time to time imposed restrictions on trading in certain securities, limitations on price movements and margin requirements. These all may affect the investments made in the Market.

38. Political instability or changes in the policies formulated by the Government of India from time to time could affect the liberalization of the Indian economy and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

We are incorporated in India and a significant portion of our fixed assets and human resources are located in India. Our business, and the market price and liquidity of the Equity Shares may be adversely affected by changes in foreign exchange rates and regulations, interest rates, government policy, taxation, social and civil unrest and other political, economic or other developments in or affecting India.

The rate of economic liberalization in India could change in future, and statutory/regulatory requirements and/or policies the general economic environment in India, foreign investment, the securities market, currency exchange and other matters affecting our business and/or investment in our securities could change as well. Any significant change in liberalization and deregulation of policies in India could adversely affect business and economic conditions in India generally and our business, operations and profitability in particular.

39. Natural calamities could have a negative impact on the Indian economy and harm our business.

India has experienced natural calamities such as earthquakes, floods, drought and a tsunami in recent years. The extent and severity of these natural disasters determines their impact on the Indian economy. Prolonged spells of abnormal rainfall and other natural calamities could have an adverse impact on the Indian economy which could adversely affect our business and the price of our Equity Shares in future.

40. A slowdown in the economic growth in India or in the economy globally could significantly affect our growth rates.

Our operations, control and administration are primarily located in India and our business operations and performance are dependent on the overall economy, the gross domestic product (“GDP”) growth rate and the economic cycle in India. The Indian economy could be adversely affected by a number of factors. Any slowdown in the Indian economy or volatility in global commodity prices, could adversely affect the Indian economy. The Indian economy could also be adversely affected by a general rise in interest rates and unfavorable weather conditions adversely affecting agriculture. A slowdown in the Indian economy could adversely affect our business and results of operations.

21 41. Terrorist attacks, civil disturbances, regional conflicts and other acts of violence in India and abroad may disrupt or otherwise adversely affect our Company’s business and its profitability.

Certain events that are beyond the control of our Company, such as terrorist attacks and other acts of violence or war, including those involving India, the United Kingdom, the United States or other countries, may adversely affect worldwide financial markets and could potentially lead to a severe economic recession for some time, which could adversely affect our Company’s business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows, and more generally, any of these events could lower confidence in India’s economy. Southern Asia has, from time to time, experienced instances of civil unrest and political tensions and hostilities among neighboring countries.

For example, India recently witnessed a major terrorist attack in Mumbai on November 26, 2008, which led to an escalation of political tensions between India and Pakistan. Political tensions could create a perception that there is a risk of disruption of services provided by India-based companies, which could have an adverse effect on our Company’s business, future financial performance and price of our Equity Shares. Furthermore, if India were to become engaged in armed hostilities, particularly hostilities that are protracted or involve the threat or use of nuclear weapons, Our Company’s operations might be significantly affected.

India has from time to time experienced social and civil unrest and hostilities, including riots, regional conflicts and other acts of violence. Events of this nature in the future could have a material adverse effect on our Company’s ability to develop its business. As a result, our Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition may be adversely affected.

42. Shareholders will bear the risk of fluctuations in the price of our Equity Shares.

The price of our Equity Shares on the Indian stock exchanges may fluctuate after this offering as a result of several factors, including: volatility in the Indian and global securities market; operations and performance of our Company; performance of our competitors; adverse media reports on our Company; changes in the estimates of our Company’s performance or recommendations by financial analysts; significant developments in India’s economic liberalization and deregulation policies; and significant developments in India’s fiscal and environmental regulations. There can be no assurance that the prices at which our Equity Shares are initially traded will correspond to the prices at which our Equity Shares will trade in the market subsequently.

43. Future issuances or sales of our Equity Shares could significantly affect the trading price of our Equity Shares, and may dilute your shareholding in Our Company.

The future issuances of Equity Shares by our Company or the disposal of Equity Shares by any of the major shareholders of our Company or the perception that such issuance or sales may occur may significantly affect the trading price of our Equity Shares.

Market size The aggregate market size of the Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam and Kannada film industry segments in FY09 in terms of total revenues generated by films is estimated to be around INR17.3 billion. Of the aggregate market size, the Telugu segment contributes around INR7.7 billion, the Tamil segment INR7.7 billion, the Malayalam segment INR1.4 billion and the Kannada segment INR0.5 billion.

Tamil film Industry

Market size by revenue stream The Tamil film industry is heavily dependent on domestic theatrical revenues, which contribute four-fifths of the total revenues earned by films (INR6.2 billion). The other significant revenue streams are C&S television rights (INR0.8 billion) and international theatrical rights (INR0.5 billion). All other revenue streams (music rights, domestic home video rights and internet and mobile rights), in aggregate, contribute only INR0.1 billion to the total market size.

International theatrical market The Tamil population of Indian origin residing overseas has been growing consistently over the past few years, with the boom in the information technology sector. Besides the number of Tamil speaking people from other countries such as Sri Lanka, who have settled abroad, has also grown. These factors have driven up the international demand for Tamil film content. However, while the international theatrical market has increased in prominence as a revenue stream, it still is not a big contributor to the total revenues of a film; revenues from the sale of international theatrical rights contribute only around 6% of the total Tamil film industry market size. While for a large budget film, the international theatrical market is about 10-15% of the total Tamil Nadu theatrical market, the corresponding figures for a medium budget film and a small budget film are 7.5-10% and 5-10% respectively.

Background:

Our Company was originally engaged in the business of retail financing and was registered with Reserve Bank of India as Non Banking Finance Company.

In January 1997, Reserve Bank of India notified revised guidelines for registration of companies as NBFC in India. These guidelines were made applicable to all the then existing registered NBFC companies. Consequently our Company was also required to make an application for re-registration and RBI was to examine the applications for granting such registrations. These applications were to be made by July 1997. Thereafter, RBI examined the applications and granted registration to some companies and de-registered remaining companies. As the registration of our Company was cancelled, the company had to stop its retail financing business as it could not comply with the said guidelines.

Consequently, the Company had altered its Object Clause by deleting the entire objects carrying NBFC business and inserted other new objects relating to purchase, own, acquire or take on lease TV Channels, radio and TV Serials in or outside India, produce TV Serials and to exhibit movies or serials or film on Satellite, Internet, Cable Net or any other means of communication.

The Channel has focused on providing content comprising of Tamil Movies, movie clippings, songs, trailers and movie based entertainment programmes. Our Company has also acquired 100% shares of Pix Aalaya Studios Private Limited, a Company intending to engage into Webstreaming of movie content on portal. Pix Aalaya Studios Private Limited has developed a Webstreaming technology (Pixstream) having E-Commerce Platform, which enables it to webcast digital content on internet. The new technology has security features to prevent piracy or duplication/copying and to collect the webcasting charges from the user through a Secure Payment Gateway System.

Our plan to engage in to business of distribution of overseas rights of South Indian movies and entertainment content would include theatrical and non theatrical rights, television (including pay television) and computer rights, exploitation rights for home use by Video copyrights including video on demand rights and video cassette rights, DVD rights / HDDVD rights / Blueray DVD rights, VCD rights, CD-ROM software rights, advertisement package rights, publishing rights, title rights, recording rights, cable TV rights (including pay cable), terrestrial television rights, satellite television broadcast rights(including satellite pay channel), IPTV (Internet Protocol TV) Rights, high seas rights, airborne rights, internet rights, broadband rights, in-flight rights, DTH rights, pay per view rights, multimedia rights, direct-to-user (DTU) rights and laser disc rights.

3. Promoters Contribution and Lock in

As per Regulation 34(c) of the Regulations, the present issue being a rights issue, provisions relating to Minimum Promoters’ contribution and lock-in are not applicable.

Mr. A. Venkatramani, the promoter, has constantly been exploring the business opportunities which the company could commence for its profits and growth. Considering his exposure in media and entertainment business for more than 15 years, he and his management team identified entertainment and media as a sector in which the company could systematically enter into and commence a profitable business venture.

In order to achieve this objective, in the month of October 2009, two companies namely Tamil Box Office India Private Limited [ TBO India] and Pix Aalaya Studios Private Limited [PASPL] were identified for acquisition. For further details, refer Section titled as “Business Overview” on page no. 74 of this Letter of Offer.

The issuer Company acquired 100% equity shares in PASPL and TBO India in December 2009 and allotted its 11,00,000 equity shares and 13,00,000 equity shares to the shareholders of PASPL and TBO India respectively as consideration.

41 The swap of equity shares was beneficial and in the interest of all three companies as PASPL and TBO India were having the business content and technology without having arrangement of the desired level of funds to grow their business further. While, our Company is confident to arrange the need based funds and was looking for a potentially profitable business opportunity to exploit, we believe that the participation in each other’s equity shareholding has brought the shareholders of all the companies in a position to leverage out the available business and funding options in the best possible interest to achieve the growth in the respective business.

In order to strengthen the management and formulate the business plans, Mr. Jude Jayprakash the main promoter of TBO India have been considered as Promoter and Promoter Group within the meaning of Regulation 2(za)(ii) of SEBI (ICDR) Regulations, 2010. We believe that entering in to the entertainment and media business with the knowledge and experience of Mr. Jude Jeyaprakash and his inclusion as Promoter in the Company would be in the interest of our Company and shareholders as it would strengthen the favourable business prospects for the company.

Mr. A. Venkatramani and Mr. Jude Jeyaprakash would fully guide and facilitate our company in getting into the business systematically and operate it profitably. They have also undertaken to subscribe to their entitlements in the proposed Rights issue and that they would ensure arrangement of additional funds in case the proposed rights issue getting under subscribed.

4. Present Rights Issue

Type of Face No. of Issue Price Consideration Ratio Instrument Value Shares (Amount in Rs.) (Amount in Rs.) 4 equity shares for every 1 Rs.10/-(R s.) 3,51,60,000 10/- 35,16,00,000 Equity Shares equity shar e held

5. Our Promoters have confirmed that they along with each of their relatives and the companies controlled by them (hereinafter referred to as “Promoters” in this clause) intend to subscribe to the full extent of their entitlement in the Issue. As per regulation 2 (za)(ii) of SEBI (ICDR) Regulations, Mr. Jude Jeyaprakash, who is instrumental in the formulation of business plan and who shall be considered as a part of the promoter and promoter group of our Company for the purpose of this Rights Issue and thereafter, arrange funds for additional Equity Shares in the Issue such that at least 90% of the Issue Size is subscribed.

As a result of this subscription and consequent allotment, the Promoter Group may acquire shares over and above their entitlement in the Issue, which may result in an increase of their shareholding being above the current shareholding. This subscription and acquisition of additional Equity Shares by the Promoters through this Issue, if any, will not result in change of control of the management of our Company and shall be exempt in terms of provision under Regulation 3(1)(b)(ii) of the SEBI (Substantial Acquisition of Shares and Takeover) Regulations, 1997. As such, other than meeting the requirements indicated in this section on “Objects of the Issue”, there is no other intention / purpose for this Issue, including any intention to delist our Company, even if, as a result of allotment to the Promoters, in this Issue, the Promoter’s shareholding in our Company exceeds their current shareholding. The Promoter Group shall subscribe to such unsubscribed portion as per the relevant provisions of the law. Allotment to the Promoter Group of any unsubscribed portion, over and above their entitlement shall be done in compliance with clause 40A of the Listing Agreement and other applicable laws prevailing at that time relating to continuous listing requirements.

Though the existing shareholding pattern does not warrant such situation , still our Promoters have given an undertaking that in case the subscription by them to the unsubscribed portion results in the public shareholding falling below the permissible minimum level as specified in the listing condition agreement (25% in our case), they will undertake necessary steps to maintain the minimum public shareholding in such manner and within such period as specified in Clause 40A of the Listing Agreement.

World Economy

The global economy is showing increasing signs of stabilization. The growth outlook in virtually all economies is being revised upwards steadily, with the Asian region experiencing a relatively stronger rebound. Global trade is gradually picking up, but other indicators of economic activity, particularly capital flows and asset and commodity prices are more buoyant. However, even as most of the forecasts on recovery are generally optimistic, significant risks remain.

The recovery in many economies is driven largely by government spending, with the private sector yet to begin playing a significant part. There are signs that high levels of global liquidity are contributing to rising asset prices as well as rising commodity prices. Emerging market economies (EMEs) are generally recovering faster than advanced economies. But they are also likely to face increased inflationary pressures due to easy liquidity conditions resulting from large capital inflows.

Global Growth

Global economic performance improved during the third and fourth quarters of 2009, prompting the IMF to reduce the projected rate of economic contraction in 2009 from 1.1 per cent made in October 2009 to 0.8 per cent in its latest World Economic Outlook (WEO) Update released on January 26, 2010. The IMF has also revised the projection of global growth for 2010 to 3.9 per cent, up from 3.1 per cent ( Table 1 ). The IMF expects the growth performance, which will be led by major Asian economies, to vary considerably across countries and regions, reflecting different initial conditions, external shocks, and policy responses.

62 China 8.7 10.0 India 5.6 7.7 Emerging and Developing Economies 2.1 6.0 World (-)0.8 3.9 Source: World Economic Outlook Update, IMF, January 26 . 2010

The IMF has also revised upwards its projection of the real GDP growth of emerging and developing economies for 2009 to 2.1 per cent from its earlier number of 1.7 per cent. The estimates are even more optimistic for 2010. The growth of emerging and developing economies is now projected at 6.0 per cent, up from 5.1 per cent earlier. The growth in EMEs such as China and India and other emerging Asian economies is expected to be robust. Commodity-producing countries are likely to recover quickly in 2010 on the back of a rebound in commodity prices. (Source: -Third Quarter Review of Monetory Policy 2009-10 issued by Reserve Bank of India on January 29, 2010)

Indian Economy

The Indian industry has recovered swiftly from the shock of the Global Liquidity Crisis. The Index of Industrial Production rose by a healthy 6.5 per cent in the first half of 2009-10, after reporting a meager growth of 0.3-0.5 per cent in the second half of 2008-09. The interim results of the manufacturing companies also suggest that they have started building inventories in anticipation of a rise in demand. Looking at the healthy trend in the industrial activity so far, we have scaled up forecast for industrial growth in 2009-10 to 7.7 per cent from 7.2 per cent. (Source - CMIE)

It is expected that industrial production to grow by 9.4 per cent in 2010-11, on top of a 9.6 per cent growth expected for 2009-10. Consumption demand will grow by a healthy 8.6 per cent, backed by a 12.2 per cent rise in corporate wages and a 10.9 per rise in salaries of government employees. The restructuring of income tax slabs in the Union Budget 2010-11 will also increase the disposable income in the hands of the urban consumer. Besides, rural income will rise, due to an expected rise in the agricultural crop and healthy allocation of funds to the NREGS.

The companies will easily be able to meet the rising demand as a 7.1 per cent rise in agricultural crop production and increase in availability of electricity and natural gas will ensure that there are no supply constraints. The industry has seen a lot of capacity addition in the last two years and will see historically high capacity additions worth Rs.6.5 crore in 2010-11. Hence, a majority of the sectors will not face any capacity constraints in 2010-11. (Source-CMIE)

South Indian Economy

The South Indian region comprises of four states of Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, and Tamil Nadu. Together, these states account for 21% (240 million) of the Indian population and 24% (INR7,405 billion) of the country’s Gross Domestic Product. The region has high income levels as well. The per capita GDP of the four states is more than or marginally below the country’s per capita GDP

63 Indian Media and Entertainment Industry

The Indian media and entertainment industry stood at INR 584 billion in 2008, a growth of 12.4 percent over the previous year. Over the next five years, the industry is projected to grow at a CAGR of 12.5 percent to reach the size of INR 1052 billion by 2013. ( Source: -FICCI- KPMG Report 2009)

Targeting Mainstream Global Audience

Dedicated TV programming for local audiences abroad

Apart from targeting the NRI population by beaming Indian content in other countries, broadcasters have now begun to take things to the next level, and are starting to offer dedicated programming for the local audiences in these countries.

Zee Network, for example, has Zee Astro which is broadcast in the South-East Asia in the local Bahasa language. NDTV too has launched two channels specifically for markets outside India–Astro Awani in South-East Asia in 2006 and NDTV Arabia in the Middle East. While NDTV Arabia is in English, Astro Awani is primarily in Bahasa.9. Both channels carry locally relevant infotainment programming.

64 Films: Looking beyond the diaspora

It’s no longer just the NRIs that have a taste for movies. Increasingly, non Indian movie audiences in different parts of the world are discovering the charm of Bollywood song-and-dance routines and melodramas. The striking popularity of Indian films among non Indian audiences in Asia, the Middle East and Europe show that Hindi films reach beyond the barriers of language, culture, and religion, and are a truly global media. Key markets for the film industry include India’s neighboring and culturally similar countries such as Pakistan, Sri Lanka and Bangladesh. Besides the Indian diaspora in these countries, there is a great demand for Bollywood content among the local audience there. Pakistan, for example, has a 165 million strong population that has a keen interest in Bollywood films. With Pakistan relaxing laws against the theatrical release of Indian films, the country has emerged as very big potential market for Hindi film industry. Indian films are already popular there and people understand the language as well. Similarly, countries like Bangladesh (147 million strong Bengali speaking population), Sri Lanka (3.8 million Tamils), Malaysia (2.3 million Tamil speakers), Singapore, UAE, and Fiji also have good potential for different regional Indian films, as has been proven by the popularity of Indian television channels in these countries.

Indian Film Industry

India’s Film industry is one of the largest in the world with more than 1000 movie releases and over 3 billion movie goers annually. The filmed entertainment sector is estimated to have grown at a CAGR of 17.7 percent over the past 3 years. The industry is estimated to reach INR 109.9 billion in size in 2008, a growth of over13.4 percent over 2007. The industry is expected to grow at the CAGR of 9.1 percent over the next 5 years and reach the size of INR 168.6 billion by 2013. ( Source: -FICCI- KPMG Report 2009 )

South Indian Film Industry

The South Indian film industry has a long and rich history. It is a key contributor to the overall Indian film industry, in terms of number of films produced, revenues earned and employment generated. It has by far, the largest share in the total number of films released per year. The industry comprises four sub-segments — Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam and Kannada.

Market size

The aggregate market size of the Tamil, Telugu,Malayalam and Kannada film industry segments in FY09 in terms of total revenues generated by films is estimated to be around INR17.3 billion. Of the aggregate market size, the Telugu segment contributes around INR7.7 billion, the Tamil segment INR7.7 billion, the Malayalam segment INR1.4 billion and the Kannada segment INR0.5 billion.

Market size by revenue streams

Among the various revenue streams, domestic theatrical revenues is, by far, the most dominant, accounting for nearly three-fourths (around INR12.6 billion) of the total revenues earned. Revenues from cable and satellite (C&S) television rights come next in the list, contributing around INR3 billion (17% of the total revenue pie), followed by revenues from international theatrical rights, which contribute around INR0.9 billion or 5% of the total revenue pie. Other revenue streams, namely, music rights, domestic home video rights, Internet and mobile rights, etc., contribute, in aggregate, around INR0.8 billion or 5% of the total revenues earned.

Few revenue streams of the South Indian Movies

 International theatrical revenues

This represents the box office collections of a film in the international theatrical market. A part of this, after deduction of the shares of the local exhibitors, comes back to the international distributor of the film. Typically, the international distributor acquires the theatrical rights from the producer of the film and distributes it in countries/ regions which has a network of theatres, for other countries/ regions he sells the rights to local distributors. This revenue stream can be significant for films with a reputed star-cast; for other films, it just generates revenues. (Source - FICCI –EY Report - 2009– From Script to Screen)

67  Mobile and Internet properties

Producers can also create mobile and Internet-based properties around big budget films, such as games, wall- papers and other audio-visual content. As the film becomes popular, these properties too gain popularity and generate revenues through downloads

 DTH PPV and Video on Demand

As mentioned earlier, these are new release platforms for films. As they gain more traction in the future, they are likely to become significant revenue streams for a film. Typically, the producer may sell these rights on an outright basis or have a revenue-sharing agreement.

Tamil film Industry

Market size by revenue stream The Tamil film industry is heavily dependent on domestic theatrical revenues, which contribute four-fifths of the total revenues earned by films (INR6.2 billion). The other significant revenue streams are C&S television rights (INR0.8 billion) and international theatrical rights (INR0.5 billion). All other revenue streams (music rights, domestic home video rights and internet and mobile rights), in aggregate, contribute only INR0.1 billion to the total market size.

International theatrical market

The Tamil population of Indian origin residing overseas has been growing consistently over the past few years, with the boom in the information technology sector. Besides the number of Tamil speaking people from other countries such as Sri Lanka, who have settled abroad, has also grown. These factors have driven up the international demand for Tamil film content. However, while the international theatrical market has increased in prominence as a revenue stream, it still is not a big contributor to the total revenues of a film; revenues from the sale of international theatrical rights contribute only around 6% of the total Tamil film industry market size. While for a large budget film, the international theatrical market is about 10-15% of the total Tamil Nadu theatrical market, the corresponding figures for a medium budget film and a small budget film are 7.5-10% and 5-10% respectively. (Source - FICCI –EY Report - 2009– From Script to Screen)

Structure

The international theatrical market for Tamil films is reasonably well-organized. Generally, the producer of a film sells the international theatrical rights for all countries as a bundle to a single international distributor. The international distributor sells the theatrical rights for different countries to separate local distributors. These distributors then release the film in the local theatres through exhibitors. There are only a couple of international distributors for Tamil films, of which one operates only on a small scale. Hence, it is practically a single buyer market for international theatrical rights. Generally, the international home video rights too are sold along with the theatrical rights as a bundle to the international distributor. (Source: FICCI –EY Report - 2009– From Script to Screen) 68 Key territories

The key territories in the international theatrical market for Tamil films are Malaysia, Singapore, Sri Lanka, the Middle East, the US and Canada, and the UK, Europe and Australia- New Zealand. Table below provides details of the contribution of various territories to the total international theatrical revenues for a typical Tamil film. For a big budget film with a well-known star cast, the US and Canada territory contributes 20% of the international revenues while the UK, Europe and Australia-New Zealand territory contributes another 20%. For a medium budget film, these two territories together contribute only 10% of international revenues. Small budget films are not released at all in theatres in these markets.

Table: Key territories in the international theatrical market Contribution (% of Territory international theatrical) Malaysia 35-40 Singapore 5-10 Sri Lanka 10 Middle East 10 US and Canada 5-20 UK, Europe and Australia-New Zealand 5-20 (Source - FICCI –EY Report - 2009– From Script to Screen)

Inter se agreements The international theatrical rights and international home video rights are sold by the producer to the international distributor on an outright basis for a fixed sum, before the domestic release of the film. In markets where the international distributor releases the film through a third party owned theatre network, the third party retains his exhibitor share from the net box office collections (usually 50%) and passes on the rest to the distributor. In markets where the international distributor does not have access to a theatre network, he sells the theatrical rights to local distributors on an outright basis.

Telugu Film Industry

Market size by revenue stream Domestic theatrical revenues account for the dominant share of the Telugu film market, contributing two- thirds of the total revenues earned by films (INR5.1 billion). The other significant revenue stream is C&S television rights (INR1.8 billion). International theatrical rights and other revenue streams (music rights, domestic home video rights and Internet and mobile rights in aggregate) contribute around INR0.4 billion each to the total market size (Source: FICCI –EY Report - 2009– From Script to Screen)Market size of Telugu film industry by revenue streams (%)

Note: Others include music rights, domestic home video rights, and mobile and internet rights (Source - Ernst & Young primary research and analysis)

69 International theatrical market

The Telugu-speaking population residing overseas has been growing consistently over the past few years, with the boom in the information technology sector. This has driven up the international demand for Telugu film content. There is a good demand for large budget films with a good star cast. As a result, the international theatrical market has increased in prominence as a revenue stream. However, the growth has been slow and below potential. For instance, the Telugu population in the US is more than the Tamil population; still the market for Telugu films in the US is lesser than that for Tamil films. Revenues from the sale of international theatrical rights contribute only around 5% of the total Telugu film industry market size. The international theatrical market primarily comprises the US, especially the west and east coast regions. The market is under-tapped because it is highly unorganized, with theatrical rights being purchased by a few software professionals, who do not carry out this business on a steady and sustained basis. Unlike the Tamil industry, there are no players in the organized sector who have tie-ups with local distributors and exhibitors to release Telugu films in the international market. International theatrical rights are sold on an outright basis. (Source - FICCI –EY Report - 2009– From Script to Screen)

Malayalam Film Industry

Market size by revenue streams Like its Tamil and Telugu counterparts, the Malayalam industry too is heavily dependent on domestic theatrical revenues, which contribute nearly three-fourths of the total revenues earned by films (INR0.98 billion). C&S television rights make up the other significant revenue stream (INR0.29 billion). International theatrical rights and other revenue streams (music rights, domestic home video rights and Internet and mobile rights) contribute only INR55 million and INR43 million respectively to the total market size (Source: FICCI –EY Report - 2009– From Script to Screen)

International theatrical market The Malayali population residing in the Middle East is the principal target market for films. Although this population has grown over the years, the value of international theatrical rights has practically remained static in the range of INR1.0–2.5 million. International theatrical rights contribute only around 4% of the total revenues earned by films (refer Exhibit 25 above). The principal reason for this is the nature of the Middle East market; there is one single buyer who controls all the theatres in the region. As a result, producers are not able to realize the true value of international theatrical rights, even for films starring the leading actors. The rights are sold on an outright basis for perpetuity, along with the international home video rights. (Source - FICCI –EY Report - 2009– From Script to Screen)

70 About Kannada Film Industry

Market size

The market size of the Kannada film industry segment is estimated to be around INR500 million, in terms of total revenues generated by films in FY09. However, the total cost of making films is much higher and hence the industry is making losses at present. The Kannada film industry depends mainly on domestic theatrical revenues, like its Tamil, Telugu and Malayalam counterparts. Domestic theatrical revenues contribute half of the total revenues earned by films (INR250 million). The other major revenue stream is C&S television rights (INR125 million), while other revenue streams such as home video rights, music rights and international theatrical form the balance. International rights are a miniscule portion as compared to the other two. (Source - FICCI –EY Report - 2009– From Script to Screen)

Unexploited national and international market

The geographical reach of Kannada movies is limited to the state of Karnataka, with a few producers exploring certain selected parts of the West and Northern India, while hardly 1-2 movies actually get distributed in the international market. Kannada-speaking population is present outside of Karnataka as well as countries such as Australia, the US and pockets of Middle East. However, these markets are not exploited, like in the case of Tamil and Telugu movies. (Source - FICCI –EY Report - 2009– From Script to Screen)

The Way Forward

The South Indian film industry is an integral segment of the overall Indian film industry. It accounts for the largestshare of films produced in the country and also contributes a significant portion of the revenues of the Indian film industry. The industry has a number of strengths to its credit. It is immensely talented, both in terms of acting skills as well as technical skills. The industry can boast of possessing some of the finest actors, directors and technicians in the country, whose skills are sought by the Hindi film industry as well. The industry has a vibrant theatrical market comprising a large theatre-going population. FICCI-EY analyzes the challenges and possible solutions that may help the industry achieve its true potential.

Under-exploitation of the international theatrical market

 The international theatrical market for South Indian films is under-tapped, especially for Telugu and Malayalam films. The industry can take a few initiatives to exploit this market better:

More organized international distribution network The international distribution network for South Indian films is not well-organized and robust. There are very few players in the market as well. Some of the large integrated players can consider expanding into international distribution and setting up a network in overseas markets.

 Expansion of target viewership: South Indian films can be made palatable for non-Indian viewers by using cosmopolitan themes and English subtitles for films. Japanese and Korean films are good examples here. The films can be marketed on international satellite channels that target the Asian community. Another initiative could be to participate extensively in international film festivals to increase awareness about South Indian films. (Source: FICCI –EY Report - 2009– From Script to Screen)

Internationalization

No longer are the Indian media and entertainment players confining themselves to domestic shores for their target consumers; they are increasingly reaching out to global audiences. Indian media companies, especially in the television and film segments continue to target the 25 million NRI diaspora1 settled in various parts of the world. (Source: - FICCI- KPMG Report 2009

( Source: -FICCI- KPMG Report 2009 )

However, now that the industry has few established players who have the necessary capital and are eager to increase their scale of operations, media companies have begun to produce content not just for the NRIs but also for the mainstream global audience in other countries.

At the same time, global demand for media services from India is also growing. Animation has been at the forefront, with India emerging as a major outsourcing destination due to its cost advantage. Film post production has also shown potential in this regard.

Finally, year 2008 witnessed one of the biggest landmarks in Indian media and entertainment industry when two of the biggest Indian media players acquired media properties abroad. The move was significant since the acquisitions were not merely aimed at providing synergies to Indian operations or targeting the Indian

72 population but establishing a distinct brand identity abroad. These acquisitions reiterated the increasing global ambitions of Indian Media Inc. (Source: -FICCI- KPMG Report 2009 )

Targeting NRI Diaspora

TV: Broadcasting across Foreign Shores

With more than 25 million NRIs spread across the globe, the international market is an important source for Indian broadcasters to augment their domestic revenues. Today, leading Indian broadcasters typically have a presence in foreign markets through distribution tie ups. For instance, Indian broadcaster Zee has channel bouquets in Europe, North America, Africa, Middle East and South East Asia. Apart from Zee, some of the other Indian broadcasters beaming to different parts of the world are NDTV, UTV Global Broadcasting (UGBL), TV18, Aaj Tak and regional language players like Sun, Eenadu and Asianet. (Star and Sony too have global distribution networks but they are in any case part of multinational media companies). (Source: -FICCI- KPMG Report 2009 )

Consequently our Company was also required to make an application for re-registration and RBI was to examine the applications for granting such registrations. These applications were to be made by July 1997. Thereafter, RBI examined the applications and granted registration to some companies and de-registered remaining companies. As the registration of our Company was cancelled, the company had to stop its retail financing business as it could not comply with the said guidelines.

Increase in revenues from existing markets

The Channel would also be made free to air for sometime in select new territories to attract viewers in the initial stage and would be made a pay channel based on the no. of viewers and attraction of viewers towards our channel.

The company plans to expand their reach in the entertainment market abroad by replicating the type of distribution arrangements it now has in Malaysia, Srilanka and Middle East, i.e. the new territories would either be covered under fixed fee model or under subscription based model on a case to case basis.

Focusing on New Avenues of Advertisement Revenues

The number of people from Singapore and Malaysia visiting India and vice versa is quite high due to the huge number of Tamil population settled in these countries. We plan to give thrust to getting significant advertisements from business establishments in Tamil Nadu and more particularly from Chennai.

80 Television Program Software (Content) Creation work

Production of TV Program software can be broadly categorized into: • Pre-production work; • Production work; and • Post production work;

Research & scripting of the proposed programme for TV is a pre-production work. Production involves preparing the programme which includes working in front of the camera and behind it. Once all the footage is b shot, the post-production work begins in the studios to give the final shape. The director and editor then develop the programme adding music, voice-overs to each frame taking care of minute details A brief description of the job functions of the various team members involved in the pre-production, production and post production of TV program software is given below.

Producer - He is the overall in charge, who conceptualizes an idea, formulates the programme, coordinates with the scriptwriter, selects the artist, discusses the presentation with the media personnel and researchers and finally coordinates the production. He also looks after continuity scripting and broadcast scripting. Continuity Scripting involves creating fillers for broadcast in between programmes, previews of coming shows, local advertisements for sponsors make such fillers. Broadcast Scripting caters to a specific audience and a team of people who work to create a programme for a particular time slot.

Set designers - Set designers work on sets for the programmes being shot. They work as per the requirements suggested by the production office. They are briefed about various scenes and shots so that the sets could be appropriately designed. Artists, carpenters, painters and technicians work towards providing all the necessary equipments.

Comperes - Comperes are required for every entertainment programme. In India most comperes are bilingual. Compering is a challenging task, comperes have to be centre of action without being the centre of attraction. The compere controls the programme and regulates its mood. He sets the pace of the event and ensures its success yet he must never be in the limelight. The work of a compere requires researching about the event, occasion or organization. The work requires the ability for rapid reading, massive retention and a quick grasp of the background of any event. Maintaining the sequence of presentations, time factor are the comperes' responsibilities.

Presenters - Programmes on TV have varied themes. The presenter blends the programme content with relevant fillers in the form of anecdotes, stories, narratives, songs to create the necessary mood and enrich the programme.

Camera team - TV programmes are recorded on video-tape from pictures shot on electronic video cameras. The work with electronic camera goes on in a TV studio. Our Company uses about three electronic cameras. The director decides the shots, with the camera supervisor and for recording each camera person works from a list which directs them about the shots their camera has to take and when.

Sound technicians - Dialogues, sound effects and music in TV programmes are recorded by sound technicians. The process includes recording in the studio, post production, editing, dubbing and mixing. Coordination needs to be done between the camera team and the sound recording. This is done by following a script. Sound technicians work in the sound control room e.g. for sound mixing. After a programme is recorded it is matched with the visuals and suitable sound and music adjustments are made. Dubbing, acoustics and background sounds have to be integrated.

Editor - After the camera work is complet, the statements and interview recorded, the musical scores chosen, it is the editor’s job to prune, put in sequence, juxtapose and highlight the shots and inserting the commentary, sound effects and music to correlate with the visuals. The sophisticated machines available for editing these days allow a variety of ‘post production’ effects which can meaningfully add to the impact of the programme. The editor’s creative inputs and skill can make or mar a programme.

81 Transmission executives -These specialists are required to put on the air, programmes scheduled for the listeners, viewers and even ensure that the quality of the transmission is good during the broadcast. Monitoring an audio-visual transmission requires the additional task of overseeing the picture quality of the programme.

Revenue Model

Revenues of our channel fall under two categories – Revenues based on subscription and under Fixed Fee contract.

Revenue based on subscription model:

Revenues based on subscription depend on the no. of subscribers availing the telecast of TBO channel.

Middle East

2. Distribution of Overseas Rights of Southern Indian movies

We also plan to engage in dealing in Overseas rights of Southern Indian movies like Theatrical and non theatrical rights, television (including pay television) and computer rights, exploitation rights for home use by Video copyrights including video on demand rights and video cassette rights, DVD rights /HDDVD rights/ Blueray DVD rights, VCD rights, CD-ROM software rights, advertisement package rights, publishing rights, title rights, recording rights, cable TV rights (including pay cable), terrestrial television rights, satellite television broadcast rights(including satellite pay channel), IPTV (Internet Protocol TV) Rights, high seas rights, airborne rights, internet rights, broadband rights, in-flight rights, DTH rights, pay per view rights, multimedia rights, direct-to-user (DTU) rights, laser disc rights.

86 Our company plans to deal in Overseas Rights of Tamil movies. We shall utilize the overseas satellite rights purchased for the TBO Movie Channel as these overseas satellite rights are a part of Overseas Rights. We plan to hold overseas satellite rights, terrestrial rights, IPTV rights and trade / sell all other rights either on an outright basis or on revenue sharing basis. It may be emphasized here that our Company would substantially keep the satellite, terrestrial, cable, IPTV and internet and other allied rights of all the movies it acquires as it has its own Tamil Movie Channel TBO. However, it may sell off some of these rights on `non exclusive’ basis in some territories where TBO Channel does not have presence. For example, if TBO Channel is getting into Australia and New Zealand only in the year 2011-2012, it can sell the satellite rights of the movies it acquires to television operators in these territories up to that period on a `non-exclusive’ basis. Our company is in the process of identifying partners or distributors for exploiting the theatrical and VCD/DVD rights of the movies it acquires in the major territories like Singapore, Malaysia, Middle East, Canada, Sri Lanka, USA and South Africa.

Overseas Rights markets of South Indian Movies are now dominated by handful of players only and complete lack of transparency is one of the reasons for the film producers not getting their legitimate share of revenues.

All the movies (about 150 films) produced in Tamil and Telugu in a year will not have overseas theatrical markets. Of the total movies only about 15% to 20% of the movies could enjoy overseas theatrical runs. Other movies would have markets in the VCD/DVD/Overseas Satellite Right segments. Though we would focus on the cream of the movies which can have overseas theatrical runs, we would also buy other categories of movies for the satellite, DVD and other markets. Our senior management team is well versed in the operations of film industry and who also have close rapport with various film producers, leading artistes and technicians in the industry. The corporate culture and transparency, which our Company would bring in to the overseas trading business, might help it swiftly clinch deals with the film producers.

Process:

1) Identification and Assessment of Movies for purchase of Overseas Rights

We would identify and assess the movies for their commercial viability in the international market. The nature, budget and starcast of the movies would determine the timing for acquisition of the overseas rights. For example movies with high budget and famous starcast, the overseas rights are acquired at the time of

87 launch of movies by paying advances at various stages of production. We would be required to maintain good and strong relationships with various producers to know about their movies that are proposed to be launched by them, star cast involved and the theme of the proposed movie.

Based on this we would evaluate the movies for its commercial viability in various countries and the timing of acquisition of those movies. To determine the commercial viability, various factors would required to be considered like the fan following of Starcast in various countries, interest of various overseas distributors for distribution in those countries, economic and social factors of those countries and other movies proposed to be released in those countries at the time of release of the proposed identified movie.

2) Finalisation and acquisition of Movies

After careful evaluation of movies for their commercial viability in the international market, the right price for the movie would be determined, also taking into consideration the competitive scenario and expectation of the producers. The overseas distribution rights of the movies would be acquired after successful negotiation with the producers

3) Finalisation of the overseas distributor for the theatrical release of movies in overseas centres Negotiations with the overseas distributors for the theatrical release of movies in overseas centres would start on acquisition of overseas rights of the movies and the stage of production of the movie. The revenues from the overseas distributor can be either on Commission Model or outright sale model. The description of sale on commission model and outright sale model is given below:

a) Commission Model:

Overseas distribution is entrusted to local distribution companies in the respective territories. The Distributor would retain a Commission on the total amount collected from the Exhibitor and remit the balance to our company. Normally a recoverable/adjustable advance is received from the overseas distributor and the advance thus received would be adjusted against the collection amounts payable by him to our company. In this model, the overseas distributor of a particular territory does not carry any risk on the performance of the movie at the box office.

b) Outright Sale Model:

Under this model, the company would sell the rights of a particular movie to the overseas distributor for a fixed consideration. The overseas distributor would be affected by the good performance or otherwise of the movie at the box office.

4) Marketing campaign in overseas territories We would carry out strong and innovative marketing campaigns for distribution of south Indian movies in overseas territories. Marketing would include taking the main artistes and director to major overseas circuits for promotion of movies before their releases. Release of movies can be widely advertised through the internet medium including bulk emailing to South Indian Diaspora in the respective overseas countries. Local South Indian Diaspora associations can also be contacted for promotion of movies. Trailers can be made available on the internet and also can be shown in the theatres where the films would be exhibited. The music of the film can also be popularized through local television channels and radio. We would evaluate the above options based on our initial commercial viability carried out and the type of marketing required for a particular movie

Marketing and promotional activities of overseas theatrical distribution of movies can be carried out into three phases.

1. Pre - Release – Normally this phase would be for a period of about 1 month prior to the day of release of the movie. The movie is discussed in televisions, print media and interviews of the key artistes and director would also be carried in print and electronic media.

88 2. Release – The first week of release would see maximum promotional activity which would include special shows for the media and intensive advertisement campaign in print and electronic media.

3. Post release – On assessment of the performance of the movie in the first weekend, the post release publicity campaign would be formulated.

5) Sale of satellite rights, DVD rights, internet rights etc. to various vendors in various overseas territories We would retain the overseas television rights for the movies for our TBO Channel for the countries where it operates and the internet rights for the webstreaming segment carried out by PBO. After careful evaluation, we would sell the satellite rights for the countries where the Channel TBO does not operate, and internet rights on non exclusive basis with other vendors. The remaining rights can be either sold on exclusive basis or non exclusive basis to other vendors.

3. Webstreaming of Tamil Movies on Portal

We intend to provide streaming of digital content on web through the websites which will be operated through a wholly owned subsidiary Pix Aalaya Studios Private Limited (PSPL).

Our Company has acquired 100% equity stake on December 30, 2009 in Pix Aalaya Studios Private Limited (PSPL), a Company intending to engage into Webstreaming of movie content on portal.

PSPL had developed a webstreaming technology (Pixstream) having E-Commerce Platform, which enables it to webcast digital content on internet. The technology used has security features to prevent piracy or duplication/copying and to collect the webcasting charges from the user through a Secure Payment Gateway System.

We intend to focus on the web casting of South Indian Movies and related contents, cricket audio, cricket video, TV serials, News live events like concerts, music shows. The web streaming digital content can be accessed by Computers, Laptops, Smart Phones, Hotel/ Airport KIOSK and DVD/VCD Players.

Revenue Streams:

At present, we do not receive any revenue from this segment and the proposed revenue streams from this segment is given below:

Annual Membership Fee

Persons paying annual membership fees will be having access to substantial part of the movie content library and also will get to pay less for viewing new movies which will be webcast. They can either view the movies directly on webstreaming mode or they can download the movies and see them any number of times within a year’s time.

Pay Per View

Under Pay per view model, viewers can pay a certain sum for either viewing or downloading a particular movie. No. of times a person could see a movie which he had downloaded would be controlled by Pixstream. PSPL plans to do simultaneous releases of some movies on the net and a number of movies will also be made available within few weeks of their releases. Higher charges may be fixed in the first week and the charges will be brought down gradually. Pay per view is also applicable to all the movies in the library and the charges will be significantly less when compared with the charges for viewing a brand new movie.

Advertisements

Advertisement revenues are expected to contribute substantially to the revenues of the webstreaming operations. Revenues would come from the ads displayed on the site, ads which will be placed while the

89 movie is being played, ads which will be placed interrupting the movie after a predetermined time gap. Revenues are also expected to come from search engines like Google, Yahoo etc.

Marketing for Webcasting Business:

PSPL would primarily target and give thrust to the large population of NRIs and PIOs spread across various countries. Indian viewers will also be covered in the marketing plans of our Company. PSPL’s strategy is to attract large number of NRIs and PIOs settled in a number of countries by undertaking marketing campaign. Competition

The Company proposes to acquire new movie content to attract the viewers to our channel. Further, the outlays for the programmes produced by us will also be increased to make them much more attractive. We propose to hold star shows in the respective territories to popularise and increase the number of subscribers to the channel. The channel would also produce programmes with the local talent and the programmes will also be shot in the respective territories.

Consequently, the Company had altered its Object Clause by deleting the entire objects carrying NBFC business and inserted new objects on 29 th April, 2007 with a view to undertake the business of acquiring TV channels, produce tele serials and to exhibit movies, serials or any film on satellite, internet, cable or any means of communication.

93 (b) Arrangement of repayment of Public Deposits

Consequent to the discontinuance of NBFC activity, the company was unable to make the timely repayment to the banks as well as the depositors. However, company had done the business in the nature of software development and other IT and allied services in minuscule level.

Ram Kaashyap Investment Limited (RKIL), Ram Kaashyap Chits Private Limited (RKCPL) and Ram Kaashyap Chits Andhra Limited (RKCAL) carried on business with a common brand name “Kaashyap” . They were unable to carry on their business effectively.

KTL, doing business under the same brand name, took over the liabilities of the three companies, namely, RKIL, RKCAL and RKCPL with a bonafide intention to save its brand name “Kaashyap, though it did not have any commitment or responsibility towards the liabilities of the said three companies. Pursuant to such takeover, KTL acknowledged the liabilities of the subscribers and depositors of the said companies and agreed to pay on a certain date. Due to unforeseen circumstances, KTL was not able to honour the commitment stated above on the due dates. Therefore, KTL formulated a scheme of repayment to all the depositors and got appropriate sanction from Hon’ble High Court, Madras, in C.P.No. 204 of 2003, vide order dated 03.11.2004.

The arrangement between KTL and RKIL for the payments of deposits and the basis of such arrangement.

RKIL had defaulted in repayment of fixed deposits of about Rs.2.35 crores during 2001 – 02. Kaashyap Technologies Ltd., doing the business under the same brand name, took over the liabilities of the three companies, namely, RKIL, RKCAL and RKCPL with a bonafide intention to save its brand name “Kaashyap”. Pursuant to such takeover, KTL acknowledged the liabilities of the subscribers and depositors of the said companies and agreed to pay on a certain date. Due to unforeseen circumstances, KTL was not able to honour the commitment stated above on the due dates. Therefore, KTL formulated a scheme of arrangement with all the depositors and got appropriate sanction from Hon’ble High Court, Madras, in C.P.No. 204 of 2003, vide order dated 03.11.2004 to repay the fixed deposits over a period of 5 years.

All repayment of deposits pertaining to the Issuer Company are as per the Schedule of Arrangement approved by the order of the High Court. As per the Certificate of R. Ravindran, Chartered Accountants, dated 22 nd June 2010, KTL is yet to pay Rs. 25,33,600 to depositors.

KTL has put necessary efforts to repay this balance amount. KTL is of the opinion that the chief reason for these unclaimed deposits could be change of addresses of depositors. However, the Issuer Company and KTL continue to do all it can to reach these depositors for repayment of the deposits.

As per the scheme of arrangement finalized, the collection of the receivables would be done in a phased manner. The leading NBFC in south M/s. Shriram Group came forward with a proposal to collect the receivables and deposit the same in Escrow account. As Shriram Group was having wide network in Southern India, it has been taking care of the responsibility of collection of receivables and amounts thus collected were utilized for the repayment of the deposits from time to time.

KTL has since then been making payments in accordance with the approved scheme and the scheme period runs till May 2010. Pursuant to the scheme, KTL has till date-cleared claims whose aggregate maturity value is more than Rs.6.5 crores.

The scheme came to an end on 31 st May, 2010.

94 (c) Settlement with Banks

Further the company had also persuaded all the banks from whom the loans were availed and entered into one time settlement (OTS) scheme with 3 banks viz. Karnataka bank, Bank of Baroda, State Bank of Hyderabad out of 5 banks. The company is in the process of finalizing the OTS with State bank of Mysore where outstanding amount is Rs. 3.5 Crores as on September 30, 2010. The company has been repaying the said loans to the banks as per the settlement scheme entered into.

In the process of recovery of loans, Bank of Rajasthan has seized some of the assets of the Company which are charged to it and has recovered the loan amount for which intimation for realization of asset and set off of outstanding liability towards principal and interest is yet to be received by the Company.

Company is willing to partly settle the dues of banks out of the proceeds of the Rights Issue as all the OTS are decided considering the regular cash flows in the Company.

Tax Impact of Adjustments (Refer - - - - - Note 4 below)

Note 1: The company carries Brand ‘Kaashyap' in its books of account from the year 1996 for a value of Rs.1000 lakhs. The management is of the opinion that the brand has immense value even now and will continue to have good value for years to come. According to Accounting Standard 26 on Intangible Assets (AS 26) issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India, which has become mandatory in FY 2003- 04, self generated brand cannot be recognised in the books of account. AS 26 further states that Intangible Assets are to be normally amortized over a period of 10 years unless there is persuasive evidence to prove that the useful life of the intangible asset is more than 10 years. As the Brand, being an Intangible Asset was recognized well before AS 26 came into effect; the same is written off over a period of 10 years starting with 2004-05.

Note 2: Due to the higher book depreciation arising out of depreciating Brand Equity, the book depreciation was substantially higher than the depreciation under income tax rules and resulting in deferred tax assets in all the years considered in the restated accounts. However, as a matter of prudence and also considering the absence of virtual certainty of future profits, deferred tax liability/asset accounted for in earlier years are now appropriately reversed.

Note:3 The lenders have waived interest of Rs. 64.80 lakhs due to them by the Company and it has been accounted as income in the year ending on March 31, 2010. As no workings were made available by lenders about how these figures are arrived at, the Company is unable to restate the same although it relates to more than one year.

Note 4: There is no tax impact, as the company had huge brought forward business losses and depreciation in all these years and did not have any tax liability and these additional amortization/depreciation would increase the carry forward losses/depreciation, if the income tax department allows such write offs

Note 5: Summarized information on Qualifications on Audited Accounts given by Auditors is given below. However, none of these qualifications require restatement of financial statements.

a) The auditors have mentioned about non-maintenance of proper records for quantitative information and situation of Fixed Assets and the Non-verification of Assets at regular periodical intervals in their reports pertaining to financial years 2005-06, 2006-07, 2007-08, 2009-10 and 6 months ended on September 2010 b) In the report pertaining to financial year 2008-09, the auditors have referred to the inadequacy of physical verification of fixed assets on a regular basis. c) Inadequate internal control procedures were referred to by the auditors in their report for the financial years 2005-06 and 2006-07 126 d) In their report for the financial year 2005-06, the auditors have pointed about the non- existence of internal audit system e) Default in scheduled repayment of borrowings by the company was commented upon by the auditors in their reports pertaining to financial year 2008-09 and also the half yearly ending 30 September 2010. f) For the financial year 2007-08 the auditors have mentioned about the non-provision of interest on cash credit g) The auditors have in their report, pertaining to financial year 2008-09 and 2009-10 mentioned about non-payment of certain statutory dues.

AS 26 further states that Intangible Assets are to be normally amortized over a period of 10 years unless there is persuasive evidence to prove that the useful life of the intangible asset is more than 10 years. As the Brand, being an Intangible Asset was recognized well before AS 26 came into effect; the same is written off over a period of 10 years starting with 2004-05.

Note 2: Due to the higher book depreciation arising out of depreciating Brand Equity, the book depreciation was substantially higher than the depreciation under income tax rules and resulting in deferred tax assets in all the years considered in the restated accounts. However, as a matter of prudence and also considering the absence of virtual certainty of future profits, deferred tax liability/asset accounted for in earlier years are now appropriately reversed.

Note 3: The lenders have waived interest of Rs. 64.80 lakhs due to them by the Company and it has been accounted as income in the year ending on March 31, 2010. As no workings were made available by lenders about how these figures are arrived at, the Company is unable to restate the same although it relates to more than one year.

Note 4: There is no tax impact, as the company had huge brought forward business losses and depreciation in all these years and did not have any tax liability and these additional amortization/depreciation would increase the carry forward losses/depreciation, if the income tax department allows such write offs

Note 5: Summarized information on Qualifications on Audited Accounts given by Auditors is given below. However, none of these qualifications require restatement of financial statements.

2. For Equity Shareholders already holding Equity Shares of the Company in dematerialized form as on Record Date, the beneficial account number shall be printed on the CAF. For those who open accounts later or those who change their accounts and wish to receive their Rights Equity 189 Shares by way of credit to such account, the necessary details of their beneficiary account should be filled in the space provided in the CAF. It may be noted that the allotment of securities arising out of this Issue may be made in dematerialized form even if the original equity shares of the Company are not dematerialized. Nonetheless, it should be ensured that the Depository Account is in the name(s) of the Equity Shareholders and the names are in the same order as in the records of the Company.

3. Responsibility for correctness of applicant’s age and other details given in the CAF vis-à-vis those with the applicant’s Depository Participant would rest with the applicant. Applicants should ensure that the names of the applicants and the order in which they appear in CAF should be same as registered with the applicant’s Depository Participant.

4. If incomplete / incorrect Beneficiary Account details are given in the CAF the applicant will get Equity Shares in physical form.

5. The Rights Equity Shares allotted to investors opting for dematerialized form, would be directly credited to the Beneficiary Account as given in the CAF after verification.
