At JSPL, we have an exciting story to tell.
A story of dynamism. Youthful courage. And breaking down of psychological and physical barriers. To extend beyond familiar boundaries. A leading domestic player in steel, power, mining, coal to liquid and infrastructure, JSPL is extending its global footprint and exploring business avenues in high growth markets. We have consistently tapped global opportunities by increasing production capacity, diversifying investments and leveraging core capabilities to venture into new geographies across the world. We are bringing far-reaching socioeconomic difference in multiple cultures and communities across India, China, Georgia, Mozambique, Democratic Republic of Congo and Indonesia, among others.

Over the last one and a half decades, JSPL has grown from strength to strength. We manufacture the world’s longest rail (121 m) in India, possess the world’s largest coal-based sponge iron facility, and produce economical power from waste heat. Today, JSPL is a picture of both evolution and constancy. Our priorities, people and possibilities have evolved. Our time-honoured values of passion for people, business excellence, integrity, ownership and sense of belonging and social initiatives remain constant. And the common thread that binds the ever-changing with the constant is the mind. We believe all constructive movement starts from an energised mind, which later reflects in external initiatives. If we break predefined barriers, focus on the overarching vision with more determination and courage, our initiatives can open new vistas of growth and development, enhancing the quality of life for all stakeholders.

Founding Chairman’s vision

Late Shri O.P. Jindal, Founding Chairman

Jindal Steel & Power Limited

“India has come a long way since Independence. But if it wants to attain inclusive growth in every sense of the word, the fruits of growth must be equitably distributed to all sections of the society, including the lowliest of the low. I am confident that this is possible if every individual, every government and every corporate joins hands to translate this idea into reality. I look forward to that day when national prosperity will not mean economic growth for a select few, but for India’s entire billion-plus population.”

Directors’ Report

EVC & MD’s message
Mr. Naveen Jindal, Executive Vice Chairman and Managing Director, JSPL, shares his insight about the Company and the steel industry, domestic and global.
To emerge as a major participant in the growth process, JSPL is continuing with its strategic objectives of expansion and development of existing reserves and capacity, enriching its product portfolio, securing raw material availability globally and implementing high standards of corporate governance. In line with these objectives, there is major action on the ground: expansion plans are being executed at Chhattisgarh, Jharkhand and Odisha. Besides, we have planned a Rs. 10,500 crore investment in Bolivia, South America, in the coming years for mining and setting up of an integrated 1.7 MTPA steel plant, 450 MW power plant, 6 MTPA sponge iron and 10 MTPA iron ore pellet plant. JSPL’s commitment to highest standards of corporate The times are momentous. There is a tectonic shift in the concentration of economic strength from the advanced economies to the developing nations of Asia, Latin America and the CIS countries. This is of particular relevance for countries like India and China, which are registering strong and sustainable economic growth in Asia. India’s economic growth is catalysed by growing domestic markets and demand emanating from bottomof-the-pyramid wealth. The role of the Indian government has been noteworthy in this regard in terms of ensuring a proper regulatory framework under which the economy can grow and provide the necessary fiscal stimulus to accelerate economic revival. India’s steel industry has been benefited by these developments as domestic requirements are growing rapidly and downstream industries are witnessing a Jindal Steel & Power Limited high demand. India’s per capita steel consumption is still abysmally low: around 45 kg, vis-à-vis the world average of 196 kg. So there is a considerable room for consumption growth, which will attract investments for more capacity creation across the next decade. Besides, as the economies of several nations return to normalcy, the demand for steel-based goods will surge. This is reflected in the growing demand for automotive products, building construction and large infrastructure projects, which were deferred owing to the slowdown. governance is reflected in transparent stakeholder communication, and the underlying element of trust that we have been able to create among local residents in the multi-cultural locations of our presence through corporate and community engagements. I am happy to note that we performed satisfactorily in 2009-10. Our turnover touched Rs. 11,151.82 crores, marginally higher than Rs. 10,913.37 crores that we reported in 2008-09. We reported a Rs. 3,634.56-crores net profit against Rs. 3,007.15 crores in 2008-09. We have always adhered to our long-term strategies of developing market leadership and enhancing our business performance with advanced technologies, efficient cost structures and a discerning knowledge of market opportunities across geographies. We also allotted 77,56,51,530 bonus shares of Re. 1 each in the ratio of 5 bonus shares for each existing equity share of Re. 1 in the last fiscal as a way of rewarding our shareholders and enhancing liquidity.

In continuing with the vision of our founding Chairman late Shri O.P. Jindal, JSPL has always tried to reconcile corporate growth with community uplift. This spirit is reflected in our numerous social outreach programmes in the sphere of education, healthcare, livelihood creation, preservation of indigenous art, culture, sports and so on. It is pertinent to mention here that JSPL was recently conferred with the Corporate Social Responsibility Excellence Award by the Associated Chambers of Commerce and Industry of India (ASSOCHAM) in recognition of its significant contribution for promoting and propagating Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) initiatives. JSPL has won many accolades for its CSR initiatives. Notable among them is the ‘Transforming Vision into Reality’ Award for 2009-10 that it bagged at the CSR Quest 2010 at Ranchi recently. Steel and power will remain relevant as the major drivers of infrastructure development and economic development, nationally and globally. JSPL, along with its subsidiaries, is in the right sectors, at the right time with the right mix of dedication and talent to emerge as the creator of next-generation steel and power on the strength of its advanced technologies, efficient cost structures, enduring focus on innovation, consistent investments to secure stable sources of raw materials and companywide consolidated management. This futuristic mindset is illustrated by the theme of this year’s report. It is relevant to mention in this context that we have undertaken rebranding initiatives with a new corporate identity to reposition ourselves as a dynamic Indian multinational. This new identity communicates a contemporary mindset, tremendous surge of energy and commitment to harness our energies to create enhanced stakeholder value. As we move ahead to the next frontier of growth and integrated excellence, I seek the support and encouragement of all our stakeholders, who made our journey since inception smooth and rewarding.

Rails
We pioneered the manufacture of 121 metre long track rails in the Indian sub-continent. The world’s longest track rails are a testimony of our manufacturing capabilities, thanks to our ceaseless drive for innovation. These ‘A’ class rails ranging from 13 m to 121 m length will make the introduction of high speed rails in India, a reality. We are equipped with state-of-the-art facilities that enable continuous on-line inspection and quality control. This aids compliance of specifications laid down by the Indian Railways and international bodies. JSPL is also a preferred supplier for Crane Rails, which find widespread usage in EOT Cranes as well as Gantry Crane operations.

Sectoral use
Rail tracks for high speed trains, sidings of power plants, refineries, cement, fertiliser and steel plants. Crane rails for ports and harbours, factories, mines, launch pads and shipyards.

Parallel flange sections
We pioneered the production of medium-size and large-size Hot Rolled Parallel Flange Beams (H-Beams) and Column Sections in India. As per Indian and international standards, these sections are superior in terms of strength, efficiency, higher axial and bending load bearing capacity, workability and economy, compared with obsolete tapered flange beams. JSPL’s Parallel Flange Beams and Columns enable complex fabrications in high volumes due to inherent functional advantages of these sections. In addition, we enhanced technical innovation and advancement by offering H-Beams that are unmatched in quality, performance and cost variants (unit-weights) of H-Beams and Columns in 150 mm to 900 mm size (UB and UC, NPB/IPE, WPB/HE sections).

Sectoral use
JSPL’s products find application in the Indian pipe industry, as well as various leading integrated mills and rolling facilities in Europe, South East Asia, West Asia and the Middle East.

Sponge iron
We possess the world’s largest coal-based sponge iron manufacturing facility, emerging as the market leader in India’s coal-based sponge iron industry. This is owing to our efficient backward integration as India’s only sponge iron manufacturer, with captive raw material resources and power generation capacity and product quality. The manufacturing capacity of 1.37 MTPA and metallic iron content of more than 81% uses Direct Reduced Iron Process (DRI) method of production and utilises 10 indigenously developed rotary kilns (6 kilns of 300 TPD and 4 kilns of 500 TPD).

Ferro chrome

Power

Our high-grade chrome ore is one of the prerequisites for making ferro chrome, which is sourced from the captive chrome ore mines in Odisha’s Sukinda Valley. The ferro chrome plant (36,000 TPA production capacity) is fully equipped with a modern laboratory, complete with state-of-the-art testing facilities in line with international standards.

To contribute significantly to India’s growing need for power, we commenced power generation over a decade ago. We operate a 358 MW power plant on the premises of our steel plant in Raigarh. We have operationalised a 24 MW wind energy plant at Satara in Maharashtra.

Mr. Naveen Jindal, EVC & MD, JSPL visiting the El Mutun Iron Ore reserves in Bolivia

The Company’s penchant for global growth is evident from the diversified interests undertaken and implemented with precision. • The Company has acquired the development rights for the 20 billion tonne of El Mutun iron ore reserves in Bolivia, and plans to invest US$2.1 billion in the next few years. • It will set up an integrated 1.7 MTPA steel plant, a 6 MTPA sponge iron and a 10 MTPA iron ore pellet plant in Bolivia. This will be the largest investment by an Indian company in South America and also the largest investment by a foreign company on a single project in this country. • The other affiliated company M/s. GTL International in Bolivia is currently engaged in the development of PALMAR FIELD, having estimated recoverable reserve of 24.7 BCF Gas and 0.87 MMBBL of condensate. M/s. GTLI has already completed drilling of one well having 3,500 m depth and expects to commence the supply of 6 mmcfd of “Natural Gas” and 120 bbl of “Condensate” shortly. The drilling of the second well is in process. GTLI owns the Palmar Block (total investments till now is 20 million dollars in 2 wells plus a production plant). The recent discovery of a deeper productive zone in a neighbouring field (Iquiri zone in the Rio Grande Field) enhances the potential for the Palmar Field, as that zone is as well present within the Palmar concession. GTLI is studying the deepening of existing wells in order to test that formation. GTLI has already formed a mixed partnership with the Bolivian State company YPFB, named YPFB GTLI SAM, for exploring 4 blocks (Itacaray, Rio Beni, Almendro and Cupesito).

Jindal Cement
The Company plans to diversify its business operations to set up a 2 million tonne annual capacity slag and flyash cement plant at Raigarh, Chhattisgarh. The plant is proximate to the existing steel unit at Raigarh, about 2 km away and plans backward integration by utilising slag from the blast furnace and fly ash from its power plant. A projected kiln capacity of 3,500 TPD has also been targeted and the construction will take 24 months. The project will be completed in two phases. In the first phase, the construction of a 0.5 MTPA slag grinding unit and in the second phase, the construction of a 2 MTPA cement plant will be completed.

RESOLUTION NO. 9 & 10: The shareholders of the Company had, in their meeting held on 26th September, 2008, approved borrowings upto an amount of Rs. 25,000/- Crores (Rupees twenty five thousand crores only) and authorised the Board to borrow funds from time to time, for the business of the Company. The Company has drawn up expansion plans for Raigarh works, envisages setting up of 6.0 million TPA steel plant in Angul (Odisha), 3.0 million TPA steel Plant in Patratu (Jharkhand), is implementing 9.6 million TPA iron ore washing plant in Barbil (Odisha) and 2.0 million TPA cement plant in Raigarh (Chattisgarh). In view of this, the existing borrowing limits are found to be inadequate. Therefore, the Board recommended that the borrowing limits may, for the time being, be increased to Rs. 35,000/- Crores (Rupees thirty five thousand crores only). Pursuant to Section 293 (1)(d) of the Companies Act, 1956 approval of the shareholders is required for increasing the borrowing limit as suggested above and authorising the Board to borrow funds from time to time from FIs, Banks, FIIs, International lenders and other sources. The Company has to secure the borrowings by way of mortgage, hypothecation, charge, etc as may be required by the lenders. Since the Company proposes to increase the borrowing limit of the Company to Rs. 35,000/- Crores (Rupees thirty five thousand crores only), approval is sought from the shareholders in terms of Section 293(1)(a) of the Companies Act, 1956, for securing the borrowed funds upto Rs. 35,000/- Crores (Rupees thirty five thousand crores only) by way of hypothecation, mortgages, charges etc. on the movable and immovable properties of the Company. The Board considered this matter in its meeting held on 04th May, 2010 and recommends these two resolutions for your approval. None of the Directors is, in any way, concerned or interested in these Resolutions. RESOLUTION NO. 11: In order to mobilise funds for the normal capital expenditure, ongoing expansion, modernisation, general corporate purposes, working capital requirements etc., it is proposed to make an offering by way of public offer and / or private placement of Foreign Currency Convertible Bonds (FCCBs), Global Depository Receipts (GDRs), American Depository Receipts (ADRs) or any other equity and / or preference share related instruments amounting in aggregate to USD 750 million equivalent to approximately Rs. 3,750 Crores (with a right to the Board to retain additional allotment, such amount of subscription not exceeding 25% of the amount of initial offer of each tranche as the Board may deem fit) to the international investor(s) in one or more tranches. The detailed terms and conditions of the offer including price would have to be determined in consultation with the lead managers, advisors and underwriters to be appointed by the Company. Since the pricing of the offering can be decided only at a later stage, it is not possible to state the price or the exact number of securities or instruments to be issued. Pursuant to Foreign Exchange Management Act, 1999 and relevant provisions of Schedule I to FEMA (Transfer or Issue of Security by a Person Resident Outside India) Regulations, 2000 and Issue of Foreign Currency Convertible Bonds and Ordinary Shares (Through Depository Receipt Mechanism), Scheme, 1993, the Company is eligible to raise funds through Foreign Currency Convertible Bonds (FCCBs), Global Depository Receipts (GDRs) or American Depository Receipts (ADRs). Annual Report 2009-10 Discussions will be initiated with internationally reputed consultants and merchant bankers for identifying the parties and negotiating the terms and conditions of the offering and the requisite approval(s)/ sanction(s) of Reserve Bank of India and/ or other Authorities would also be obtained for this purpose after shareholders approval is obtained. Section 81 of the Companies Act, 1956, provides, inter-alia, that when it is proposed to increase the Subscribed Capital of a Company by allotment of further shares, such further shares shall be offered to the existing shareholders of the Company in the manner laid down in that Section unless the shareholders in a general meeting decide otherwise by way of a Special Resolution.

BUSINESS REVIEW Global economy started recovery in 2009 but the speed of recovery remained slow. The process of recovery will get consolidated during 2010 in which Emerging Market Economies (EMEs) including India will play a significant role. The World Trade Organisation is of the view that world trade will stage a strong recovery in 2010. However, the risks to the recovery could be large public debt in developed economies, high unemployment rates and weak financial systems. The improvement in global macroeconomic conditions is witnessed by the turnaround in India’s exports and the return of capital inflows. Indian economy is on steady growth trajectory and recovery is getting more broad-based. Domestic output is expected to improve as the economy grows. There are better prospects for the Rabi crop and services and manufacturing sectors have also shown great resilience. Output growth during 2010-11 is expected to increase due to increasing levels of capacity utilisation in recent months. India’s export and import sector has improved along with the recovery in the global economy. Union Budget for 2010-11 lays greater emphasis on quality of fiscal adjustment which would contribute to improving the overall medium-term growth outlook. Volatility in the domestic financial markets was much lower during 2009-10 than in the year before, when the crisis erupted. During 2009-10, foreign exchange reserves increased by US$ 27.1 billion. Net capital inflows are expected to increase further during the current year, reflecting the prospects of higher growth. Inflation had reached peak levels but is expected to moderate in the coming months. There are, however, upside risks to inflation. International commodity prices, particularly oil, have started to increase again. In several commodities, the import option for India to contain domestic inflation is limited, because of higher international prices. Increase in private sector consumption and the increasing demand supply gap will add to inflationary pressures. Economic growth in 2010-11 is expected to be higher than in 2009-10 on account of overall growth of agriculture, industry and service sector. However, there are some risks like monsoon uncertainty, less consumption demand, pace of global recovery and decline in exports. Decision of the Government to exit from fiscal stimulus and the growth-supportive monetary policy could impact the growth process. With an impressive track record, the country has assumed a favourable place in the world steel industry. Global steel giants from all over the world have shown interest in the industry because of its good performance. The crude steel production in India registered a moderate year-on-year growth of 2.7% in 2009 and reached 56.6 Million Metric Tons. On the other side, some Asian countries such as Japan and South Korea saw significant decline in their production levels. This further signifies the resilience and strength of the Indian steel industry against external risk factors. Global economic slowdown hampered the growth of various steel intensive industries, such as, construction in 2009 and its impact also fell on steel demand. However, the Government’s proactive incentive plans to boost economic growth by injecting funds in various industries Annual Report 2009-10

like construction, infrastructure and power will help the steel industry to again achieve its previous growth trajectory. Steel consumption in India is expected to grow significantly in coming years since per capita finished steel consumption is far less from other countries. According to the year-end review by the Press Information Bureau, India has emerged as the fourth largest producer of steel in the world and the second largest producer of crude steel. The National Steel Policy has a target for taking steel production up to 110 MT by 2019–20. With the current rate of ongoing greenfield and brownfield projects, the Ministry of Steel has projected that India’s steel capacity is expected to touch 124.06 MT by 2011–12. Based on the status of Memoranda of Understanding (MoUs) signed by the private producers with the various State Governments, such as Odisha, Jharkhand, Chhattisgarh, West Bengal, India’s steel capacity is likely to be 293 MT by 2020. India accounts for around 5 per cent of the global steel consumption. However, its use in railway coaches, wagons, airports, hotels and retail stores is growing immensely. India’s steel consumption rose on account of improved demand from sectors like automobile and consumer durables. The scope for raising the total consumption of steel is huge, given that per capita steel consumption is only 35 kg compared to 150 kg across the world and 250 kg in China. While the demand for steel will continue to grow in traditional sectors such as infrastructure, construction, housing, automotive, steel tubes and pipes, consumer durables, packaging and ground transportation, specialised steel will be increasingly used in hi-tech engineering industries such as power generation, petrochemicals, fertilisers, etc. The new airports and railway metro projects will require a large amount of stainless steel. With the growing need for oil and gas transportation infrastructure, huge opportunity is waiting to be tapped by steel manufacturers in the coming years. OPPORTUNITIES AND THREATS Steel industry plays an important role in the development of a country. India, a developing nation, requires huge contribution from this industry, to expedite its run to reach new heights in world economy. India has large reserves of mineral resources, such as, coal, iron ore etc and is in a strong position to mobilise these resources into productive use. Vast market potential with increasing middle class provides assured market to the industry. Recovery in Indian economy during 2009-10 has given rise to new investment opportunities which will increase demand for steel products. Last year the Company had undertaken comprehensive exercise on reducing costs and improving quality of the products which has given a strong edge to the Company in the market. The demand for steel is increasing and the prices have also firmed up during the year under report. The increase in steel making capacity by the Company will be absorbed by the increasing demand for steel products. Jindal Steel & Power Limited Power, iron ore and coal are three key raw materials for production of steel. Your Directors are making all efforts to ensure their availability considering the proposed enhancement in the production capacity of steel. In South Africa, Company is operating, through a subsidiary a coal mine named as Kiepersol Colliery in Piet Retief, South Africa and started coal production in December 2009. In Mozambique, Company has acquired coal block in Tete province and is exploring the coal block. Efforts are being made to get more mining concession in Mozambique. Jindal Steel Bolivia, S.A (JSB), a subsidiary of the Company has been awarded exploration rights by the Government of Republic of Bolivia over El-Mutun Iron Ore Mine. JSB will set up mining facilities, steel making facilities and requisite infrastructure for development of the mine in granted concession.

The Company is increasing captive power generation capacity for meeting power requirement of steel plants. Phase-1(2x135 MW) of Captive power plant of 540 MW (4x135 MW) capacity is under implementation at coal mine at Tamnar, Chhattisgarh. Part I of 135 MW has been synchronised and will start generating Power in June 2010. Setting up of captive power plants is a part of the integrated steel plants being set up in Angul, Odisha and Patratu, Jharkhand for meeting their power requirements. The Company had, last year, commissioned wind mill power plants in villages - Bhud and Amberi in District Satara in the State of Maharashtra with an aggregate generation capacity of 15 MW. During the year under report additional 9 MW wind mill power generation capacity has been added. Jindal Power Limited (JPL), subsidiary of the Company is expanding power generation capacity of I,000 MW power plant at Raigarh, by setting up 2,400 MW power project. JPL has signed three joint venture agreements with Hydro Power Development Corporation of Arunachal Pradesh Limited, a public sector undertaking for setting up hydro electric power plants with an aggregate capacity of 6,100 MW in Arunachal Pradesh. Your Company has, over the years, built a strong technical and managerial team who possesses sufficient experience in setting up big projects and manage them efficiently. This team is competent enough to set up steel projects in Angul, Odisha and Patratu, Jharkhand and expanding steel production capacity in Raigarh. The Company is therefore poised well for further growth and sustainable development. There are however cost factors of financing which the Company has to consider while taking strategic decisions. The upward pressure on inflation has prompted RBI to increase its benchmark rates. This has increased the cost of financing for working capital requirement. Additionally, it is also putting pressure on all the expansion projects. Already the interest rates for the short term and medium term loans have gone up by 25-50 basis points in the last few months. Cheaper imports from countries such as China and Ukraine will make steel industry vulnerable. Further lowering of customs duty on steel products which is 5% at present or further increasing of excise duty on production of steel products which was raised from 8% to 10% in the union budget 2010 could adversely impact the revenue and profitability of steel industry. United States of America and European countries are slowly coming out of acute slow down prove a little drag on the pace of projected economic growth of the country in the current year. But the internal economic factors indicate increasing demand for steel which is expected to command better prices. Electricity continues to be in short supply and its domestic and industrial demand is rising. As the Company is self sufficient in supply of raw materials and has captive facilities for meeting its electricity requirement, the Company is expected to do better in coming years.

OUTLOOK The global steel market has significantly improved since the low of 2008-09. The first half of 2009 witnessed monthly steel production levels go below 100mn MT due to global economic recession. The production levels picked up from 2nd half driven by China as consumers across sectors started replenishing stocks. Global Steel Production for 2009 was 1,220 MMTPA as against 1,329 MMTPA in 2008. World Steel Association in its April, 2010 report, forecasted that apparent steel use will increase by 10.7% to 1,241 mmt in 2010 after contracting by 6.7% in 2009. This represents an improved figure over the Autumn 2009 forecast for both 2009 and 2010. With these projections, world steel demand in 2010 will exceed pre-crisis levels of 2007. In 2011, it is forecast that world steel demand will grow by 5.3% to reach a historical high of 1,306 mmt. The resilience of the emerging economies, especially China, has been the critical factor enabling the earlier than expected recovery of world steel demand. Indian steel industry was among the very few countries which registered positive growth during 2009-10 and is expected to increase by 10-12% in 2010-11. This growth is to be driven by infrastructure sector which is expected to grow at 17.5% in financial year 2010-11. Union Budget 2010 has provided Rs. 1,73,552 Crore for infrastructure development. Steel production in 2010-11 is likely to be 65 million tonnes compared to 60-61 million tonnes in the year 2009-10. The rise in construction activities, too, fuelled volume growth for the steel, thereby indicating that recovery in demand is broad-based and is gathering pace. Companies across sectors are re-launching projects that were shelved and this has increased demand for the metal. The process of re-stocking inventories is also on a high in anticipation of price hike going forward. The domestic demand, especially from the railways, and varied use of stainless steel, will also act as a catalyst in growth of the steel industry in India. The prices of semi finished and finished steel in India have been closely following international trend. International steel prices have been rising steadily in the last few months mostly due to upswing in raw material prices globally and demand pull in some of the products, mainly flat products. The price of the raw materials like coking coal and iron ore has been rising continuously for a number of months now. Although the manufacturers are absorbing some of the price increase, the long term financial implications are forcing them to pass it on to customers. Over the last 12 months the price of coking coal has increased by 96% while the price of iron ore has increased by 91%. The corresponding increase in Semis has been 15% and that for HR Coils has been 38% in India. Thus, much of the increase in input prices has been absorbed by the manufacturers. The Company plans to have 30% of its sales through MoU customers which will insulate it from external factors Jindal Steel & Power Limited related to price and ensure a steady order pipeline. It will also focus on efficiently developing value added grades for new applications to enter new markets and limit the impact of competition for greater profitability. It will also focus on efficiently increasing sales through the stockyards by keeping the optimum inventory levels and product mix for just in time order delivery as well as for serving a large number of smaller customers. FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE The overall operational performance of the Company has been satisfactory. During the financial year 2009-10, the Company achieved net sales of Rs. 7,367.59 Crores and net profit after tax of Rs. 1,479.68 Crores registering marginal decrease of about 4% as compared to 2008-09 due to lower price realisation.

ENVIRONMENT PROTECTION Environmental issues in steel industry are so numerous, complex and interconnected that an adhoc approach to problem solving is no longer considered effective. The growing pressure from all stakeholders requires steel companies to adopt environmental responsibility in all activities.

The Company follows the mercantile system of accounting and recognises income and expenditure on accrual basis to the extent measurable and where there is certainty of ultimate realisation in respect of incomes. Accounting policies not specifically referred to otherwise are consistent and in consonance with the generally accepted accounting principles in India. ii) Fixed Assets and Depreciation a) Fixed Assets Fixed Assets are stated at cost of acquisition inclusive of incidental expenses related thereto and are net of CENVAT/VAT credit. Fixed assets acquired by the Company pursuant to a Scheme of Arrangement are stated at their transfer values. b) Expenditure during construction period Expenditure related to and incurred during implementation of new/expansion-cum-modernisation projects is included under capital work-in-progress and the same is allocated to the respective Fixed Assets on completion of its construction/erection. Interest on borrowing costs related to a qualifying asset is worked out on the basis of actual utilisation of funds out of project specific loans and/or other borrowings to the extent identifiable with the qualifying asset and is capitalised with the cost of the qualifying asset. c) Intangible Assets Intangible Assets are recognised on the basis of recognition criteria as set out in Accounting Standard (AS-26) ‘Intangible Assets’. d) Depreciation and Amortisation Depreciation on fixed assets is provided on straight-line method (SLM) at the rates and in the manner specified in Schedule XIV to the Companies Act, 1956. Leasehold Land and Aircraft are being amortised over the period of lease. In the case of assets where impairment loss is recognised, the revised carrying amount is depreciated over the remaining estimated useful life of the asset. Certain Plant and Machinery have been considered as continuous process plant on the basis of technical assessment and depreciation on the same is provided for accordingly. Intangible Assets are amortised over the expected duration of benefits not exceeding ten years. Jindal Steel & Power Limited iii) Foreign Currency Transactions Foreign currency transactions are recorded at the rate of exchange prevailing at the date of the transaction. Monetary foreign currency assets and liabilities are translated at the year-end exchange rates and resultant gains / losses are recognised in the profit & loss account for the year, except to the extent that they relate to new projects till the date of capitalisation which are carried to pre-operative expenses and those relating to fixed assets which are adjusted to the carrying cost of the respective assets.

In case of foreign subsidiaries, with non-integral foreign operations, revenue items are converted at the average rate prevailing during the year. All assets and liabilities are converted at the rates prevailing at the end of the year. Exchange difference arising on conversion is recognised in Foreign Currency Translation Reserve. iv) Investments Long-term investments are carried at cost. Provision is made when, in the opinion of the management, diminution in the value of investment is other than temporary in nature. Current investments are carried at the lower of cost or market / fair value. v) Valuation of Inventories Raw Materials and Stores & Spares are valued at lower of cost, computed on weighted average basis, and net realisable value. Cost includes the purchase price as well as incidental expenses. Scrap is valued at estimated realisable value. Work-in-progress is valued at lower of estimated cost and net realisable value and finished goods are valued at lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost for this purpose includes direct cost and appropriate administrative and other overheads. vi) Inter-Division Transfers Inter-division transfer of goods, as independent marketable products produced by separate divisions for captive consumption, is transferred at approximate prevailing market price. The same is shown as a contra item to reflect the true working of the respective divisions in the Profit and Loss Account. Any unrealised profit on unsold stocks is eliminated while valuing the inventories. The value of such inter-divisional transfer is netted off from sales and operational income and expenses under materials, manufacturing and others. Inter-divisional transfer/captive consumption to Fixed Assets is at cost. vii) Employee Benefits Expenses & liabilities in respect of employee benefits are recorded in accordance with Accounting Standard (AS)-15 –Employee Benefits (revised 2005) issued by ICAI. a) Provident Fund The Company makes contribution to statutory provident fund in accordance with the Employees Provident Fund & Miscellaneous Provisions Act, 1952 which is a defined contribution plan and contribution paid or payable is recognised as an expense in the period in which services are rendered by the employee. b) Gratuity Gratuity is a post employment benefit and is in the nature of a defined benefit plan. The liability recognised in the Balance Sheet in respect of gratuity is the present value of the defined benefit/obligation at the Balance Sheet date less the fair value of plan assets, together with adjustment for unrecognised actuarial gains or losses and past service costs. The defined benefit/obligation is calculated at or near the Balance Sheet date by an independent Actuary using the projected unit credit method. Liability in respect of Compensated absences due or expected to be availed within one year from the Balance Sheet date is recognised on the basis of undiscounted value of estimated amount required to be paid or estimated value of benefit expected to be availed by the employees. Liability in respect of compensated absences becoming due or expected to be availed more than one year after the Balance Sheet date is estimated on the basis of an actuarial valuation performed by an independent Actuary using the projected unit credit method. d) Other short term benefits Expense in respect of other short term benefits is recognised on the basis of the amount paid or payable for the period during which services are rendered by the employee.

viii) Excise Duty and Customs Duty Excise Duty liability on finished goods manufactured and lying in the factory is accounted for and the corresponding amount is considered for valuation thereof. Customs duty in respect of materials lying in bonded premises and in transit is accounted for as and when the property in the goods passes to the Company. ix) Miscellaneous Expenditure The following expenditure shown under “miscellaneous expenditure” is amortised as follows: a) b) c) x) Share issue expenses are written off over a period of ten years. Debenture/Bonds issue expenses and premium on redemption are written off over the period of Debentures/Bonds. Iron Ore mines/Coal mines development expenditure and Railway plot development expenditure etc., are written off over a period of ten years. Revenue Recognition a) Sales and Operational income is inclusive of excise duty, export benefits and inter-divisional transfer but net of returns, rebates and sales tax. Materials returned/rejected are accounted for in the year of return/rejection. Sales net of excise duty and inter-divisional transfer is also disclosed separately. b) c) d) Export sales are accounted for on the basis of the date of bill of lading / airways bill. Income from job charges is accounted for at the time of billing. Since it is not possible to ascertain with reasonable certainty, the quantum of accruals in respect of certain claims of Railways, Insurance, Electricity, Customs and Excise, the same continue to be accounted for on acceptance basis. xi) Export benefits Export benefits available under the Export Import policy of the Government of India are accounted for in the year of export, to the extent measurable. xii) Accounting for Leases In respect of finance lease, the same is recognised as an asset and a liability to the lessor at fair value at the inception of the lease. In respect of operating lease, the lease payments as per respective lease agreements are recognised as expense in the profit and loss account on a straight-line basis. xiii) Research and Development Expenditure Research and Development expenditure not fulfilling the recognition criteria as set out in Accounting Standard (AS-26) on ‘Intangible Assets’ is charged to the profit and loss account while capital expenditure is added to the cost of fixed assets in the year in which it is incurred. Jindal Steel & Power Limited xiv) Taxes on Income Provision for current tax is made considering various allowances and benefits available to the Company under the provisions of the Income Tax Act, 1961. In accordance with Accounting Standard (AS-22) “Accounting for Taxes on Income” issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India, deferred taxes resulting from timing differences between book and tax profits are accounted for at the tax rate substantively enacted by the Balance Sheet date to the extent the timing differences are expected to be crystallised.

amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount for which the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount being the higher of the assets net selling price and its value in use. Value in use is based on the present value of the estimated future cash flows relating to the asset. For the purpose of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest level for which there are separately identifiable cash flows (i.e. cash generating units). Previously recognised impairment losses, relating to assets other than goodwill, are reversed where the recoverable amount increases because of favourable changes in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount since the last impairment was recognised. A reversal of an asset’s impairment loss is limited to its carrying amount that would have been determined (net of depreciation or amortisation) had no impairment loss been recognised in prior years. xvi) Provisions and Contingent Liabilities Provisions are recognised for present obligations of uncertain timing or amount arising as a result of a past event where a reliable estimate can be made and it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation. Where it is not probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required or the amount cannot be estimated reliably, the obligation is disclosed as a contingent liability, unless the probability of outflow of resources embodying economic benefits is remote. Possible obligations, whose existence will only be confirmed by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain events, are also disclosed as contingent liabilities unless the probability of outflow of resources embodying economic benefits is remote. xvii) Employee Stock Option Scheme Stock options granted to the employees of the Company and its subsidiary under the Company’s Stock Option schemes are evaluated as per the accounting treatment prescribed by the Employee Stock Option Scheme and Employee Stock Purchase Scheme Guidelines, 1999 issued by the Securities and Exchange Board of India. Accordingly, excess of market value of the stock option as on date of grant over the exercise price of the options is recognised as deferred employee compensation and is charged to the profit and loss account as employee cost on straight line method over the vesting period of the options.

The Company has unquoted investments of Rs. 1075.78 Crores in body corporates (Previous year Rs. 1071.88 Crores). Considering that the fall in the value of some of the investments had been a continuing one, the management had made a provision for diminution in the value of investments of Rs. 11.54 Crores during the earlier years. Based on the financial position of the investee companies, the management is of the view that the provision created as aforesaid is adequate. 14. In the opinion of the Board, Current Assets, Loans and Advances have a value on realisation in the ordinary course of business at least equal to the amount at which they are stated and provision for all known liabilities has been made. 15. The Company has so far not received information from vendors regarding their status under the Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises Development Act, 2006 and hence disclosure relating to amounts unpaid as at the year-end together with interest paid / payable under this Act has not been given. 16. In the Previous year, dividend proposed relating to the shares under ESOP was made on the basis of options vested but not exercised till the end of the financial year. Provision made in respect of options lapsed and not exercised in the current year has been adjusted with the dividend proposed for the year ended on 31st March, 2010. 17. The Company has made a provision of Rs. 4.28 Crores (Previous year Rs. Nil) for Corporate Dividend Tax on the amount of dividend proposed for the year ended 31st March, 2010 after considering the set-off against corporate dividend tax payable by a subsidiary company on the interim dividend declared by it for the same financial year, as per the provisions of section 115-O of the Income Tax Act, 1961.

Auditors’ Report To The Board of Directors of Jindal Steel & Power Limited on The Consolidated Financial Statements

1.

We have audited the attached consolidated balance sheet of JINDAL STEEL & POWER LIMITED, and its subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures (collectively referred to as “the Group”) as at 31st March, 2010, and also the consolidated profit and loss account and the consolidated cash flow statement for the year ended on that date annexed thereto. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in India. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with an identified financial reporting framework and are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by the management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. The financial statements of one associate company and one joint venture have been audited by us in which the share of profit of the group is Rs. 13.86 Crores. Investment in associate company has been reported in accordance with Accounting Standard (AS)-23 and in joint venture in accordance with Accounting Standard (AS)-27. We did not audit the financial statements of subsidiaries, whose financial statements reflect total assets (net) of Rs. 6101.45 Crores as at 31st March, 2010, total revenue of Rs. 4055.43 crores and net cash flows amounting to Rs. (305.48) Crores for the year then ended. These financial statements and other financial information have been audited by other auditors whose reports have been furnished to us and our opinion is based solely on the report of the other auditors. In the case of certain subsidiaries of the Company, having total assets (net) of Rs. 1702.69 Crores as at 31st March, 2010, total revenue of Rs. 44.38 Crores and net cash flows amounting to Rs. (1.25) Crores for the year then ended, the figures used for the consolidation are based on the management’s estimate and are therefore unaudited.

We report that the consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company in accordance with the requirements of Accounting Standard (AS)-21, ‘Consolidated Financial Statements’, Accounting Standard (AS)-23 ‘Accounting for Investments in Associates in Consolidated Financial Statements’ and Accounting Standard (AS)-27, ‘Financial Reporting of Interests in Joint Ventures’ issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India and on the basis of the separate financial statements of the subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures included in the consolidated financial statements. Based on our audit and on consideration of the reports of the other auditors on separate financial statements and on the other financial information of the subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, we are of the opinion that the attached consolidated financial statements together with the notes thereon give a true and fair view in conformity with the accounting principles generally accepted in India: (a) in the case of the consolidated balance sheet, of the consolidated state of affairs of the Group as at 31st March, 2010; (b) in the case of the consolidated profit and loss account, of the consolidated results of operations of the Group for the year ended on that date; and (c) in the case of the consolidated cash flow statement, of the consolidated cash flows of the Group for the year ended on that date.

The Company follows the mercantile system of accounting and recognises income and expenditure on accrual basis to the extent measurable and where there is certainty of ultimate realisation in respect of incomes. Accounting policies not specifically referred to otherwise are consistent and in consonance with the generally accepted accounting principles in India. In case of foreign subsidiaries, being non-integral operations, revenue items are consolidated at the average exchange rate prevailing during the year. All assets and liabilities are converted at the rates prevailing at the end of the year. Any exchange difference arising on consolidation is recognised in the foreign currency translation reserve. The difference between the cost of investment in the subsidiaries and joint ventures and the Company’s share of net assets at the time of acquisition of shares in the subsidiaries and joint ventures is recognised in the financial statements as goodwill or capital reserve as the case may be. Minority interest in the net assets of the consolidated subsidiaries is identified and presented in the consolidated balance sheet separately from liabilities and the equity of the Company’s shareholders. Minority interest in the net assets of consolidated subsidiaries consists of the amount of equity attributable to minorities at the date on which investment in a subsidiary is made and the minorities’ share of movements in the equity since the date the parent subsidiary relationship comes into existence. Jindal Steel & Power Limited has prepared consolidated financial statements by consolidating its accounts with those of its subsidiaries as on 31.03.2010, in accordance with Accounting Standard 21 (Consolidated Financial Statements), Accounting Standard 23 (Accounting for investment in associates in consolidated financial statements) and Accounting Standard 27 (Accounting for investments in joint ventures in consolidated financial statements) issued by The Institute of Chartered Accountants of India.

Cost for this purpose includes direct cost and appropriate administrative and other overheads. xi) Inter-Division Transfers Inter-division transfer of goods, as independent marketable products produced by separate divisions for captive consumption, are transferred at approximate prevailing market price. The same is shown as a contra item to reflect the true working of the respective divisions in the Profit and Loss Account. Any unrealised profit on unsold stocks is eliminated while valuing the inventories. The value of such inter-divisional transfer is netted off from sales and operational income and expenses under materials, manufacturing and others. Inter-divisional transfer/captive consumption to Fixed Assets is at cost. xii) Employee Benefits Expenses & liabilities in respect of employee benefits are recorded in accordance with Accounting Standard (AS15) ‘Employee Benefits (revised 2005)’ issued by ICAI. a) Provident Fund The Company makes contribution to statutory provident fund in accordance with the Employees Provident Fund & Miscellaneous Provisions Act, 1952 which is a defined contribution plan and contribution paid or payable is recognised as an expense in the period in which services are rendered by the employee. b) Gratuity Gratuity is a post employment benefit and is in the nature of a defined benefit plan.

estimated on the basis of an actuarial valuation performed by an independent Actuary using the projected unit credit method. d) Other short-term benefits Expense in respect of other short-term benefits is recognised on the basis of the amount paid or payable for the period during which services are rendered by the employee. e) Overseas subsidiaries and step down subsidiaries are making contribution as per applicable local laws of the country in which they have been incorporated / operating. xiii) Excise Duty and Customs Duty Excise Duty liability on finished goods manufactured and lying in the factory is accounted for and the corresponding amount is considered for valuation thereof. Customs duty in respect of materials lying in bonded premises and in transit is accounted for as and when the property in the goods passes to the Company. xiv) Miscellaneous Expenditure The following expenditure shown under “miscellaneous expenditure” is amortised as follows: a) b) c) d) Share issue expenses are written off over a period of ten years.

Materials returned/rejected are accounted for in the year of return/ rejection. Sales net of excise duty and inter-divisional transfer is also disclosed separately. b) c) d) Export sales are accounted for on the basis of the date of bill of lading/airways bill. Income from job charges is accounted for at the time of billing. Since it is not possible to ascertain with reasonable certainty, the quantum of accruals in respect of certain claims of Railways, Insurance, Electricity, Customs and Excise, the same continue to be accounted for on acceptance basis. e) Jindal Steel & Power Limited Sale of power is accounted for on the basis of billing to consumers. Generally all consumers are billed on the basis of recording of consumption of energy by installed meters. Where meters are stopped or are faulty, the billing is done based on past consumption for such period. xvi) Export benefits Export benefits available under the Export Import policy of the Government of India are accounted for in the year of export, to the extent measurable. xvii) Accounting for Leases In respect of finance lease, the same is recognised as an asset and a liability to the lessor at fair value at the inception of the lease.

In respect of operating lease, the lease payments as per respective lease agreements are recognised as expense in the profit and loss account on a straight-line basis. xviii) Research and Development Expenditure Research and Development expenditure not fulfilling the recognition criteria as set out in Accounting Standard (AS-26) on ‘Intangible Assets’ is charged to the profit and loss account while capital expenditure is added to the cost of fixed assets in the year in which it is incurred. xix) Taxes on Income i) Indian Companies: Provision for current tax is made considering various allowances and benefits available to the Company under the provisions of the Income Tax Act, 1961. ii) Foreign Companies: Foreign subsidiaries and associates recognise tax liability in accordance with the applicable local laws. In accordance with Accounting Standard (AS-22) “Accounting for Taxes on Income” issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India, deferred taxes resulting from timing differences between book and tax profits are accounted for at the tax rate substantively enacted by the Balance Sheet date to the extent the timing differences are expected to be crystallised. Deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent there is reasonable/ virtual certainty of realising such assets against future taxable income. xx) Impairment of Assets Specified assets are reviewed for impairment wherever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount for which the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount being the higher of the asset’s net selling price and its value in use. Value in use is based on the present value of the estimated future cash flows relating to the asset. For the purpose of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest level for which there are separately identifiable cash flows (i.e. cash generating units). Previously recognised impairment losses, relating to assets other than goodwill, are reversed where the recoverable amount increases because of favourable changes in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount since the last impairment was recognised. A reversal of an asset’s impairment loss is limited to its carrying amount that would have been determined (net of depreciation or amortisation) had no impairment loss been recognised in prior years. xxi) Provisions and Contingent Liabilities Provisions are recognised for present obligations of uncertain timing or amount arising as a result of a past event where a reliable estimate can be made and it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic economic benefits will be required or the amount cannot be estimated reliably, the obligation is disclosed as a contingent liability, unless the probability of outflow of resources embodying economic benefits is remote. Possible obligations, whose existence will only be confirmed by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain events, are also disclosed as contingent liabilities unless the probability of outflow of resources embodying economic benefits is remote. Annual Report 2009-10 benefits will be required to settle the obligation. Where it is not probable that an outflow of resources embodying
