Indian Telecommunication Industry is the fastest growing Telecomindustry in the world. By 2010, the industry is poised to becomethe second largest Telecom industry globally, with a totalsubscriber base of more than 500 million in wireless andwireline segments.
The Indian Wireless Industry, with 41% penetration, is onlysecond after China in terms of subscriber base at 441 million.Most of this growth has come from urban India wherepenetration is close to 60%, but in rural markets it is less than15%, where the industry now sees the opportunity for growth.
The Revenue of Telecom operators in India is expected to bearound Rs. 1.60 Lakh Crore for the fiscal year 2009-10, whilethe adjusted gross revenue is likely to stay at Rs. 1,38,000 Crore.The share of the Department of Telecom (DOT) in the adjustedrevenue will be 12%, equivalent to around Rs.16,500 Crore.After tax, the revenue from the Telecom sector will be thesecond leading contributor to the Indian Government.
Major Telecom operators from around the World are constantlyworking to enhance their presence in India by coordinating andbuilding partnerships with local players. According to anestimation from DOT, foreign direct investment in India soared2.5 times from US $ 478 Million in 2006-07 to US $ 1261Million in 2007-08. Moreover, a total of 15.64 Million newwireless subscribers added to the base in March 2009 and thenumber of wireline subscribers increased marginally for thefirst time in the last two years. Rise in the number of bothwireless and wireline subscribers depict the growth of theTelecom sector as a whole.
The booming domestic Telecom market has been attracting hugeamount of investments, which is likely to accelerate with theentry of new players and launch of new services. Norway-basedTelecom operator Telenor has bought a 60% stake in Unitech
Wireless for US $ 1.23 billion, Singapore Telecommunications(SingTel), which has a 31% stake in Bharti Airtel, has receivedthe government’s approval to offer long distance services inIndia. Telecom operator Aircel, which launched GSM Mobileservices in Bangalore on February 23, 2009, plans to invest US
$ 220.58 Million over the next year to set up base stationsacross the state.
With reference to India’s Telecom equipment manufacturingsector, it is set to become one of the largest globally by2010. Mobile phone production is estimated to grow at a

2011, touching US $ 13.6 billion. Currently the Telecomhardware manufacturing sector is dominated by internationalmajors like Nokia, Ericsson and LG who have set upmanufacturing bases in India.
Our Government has taken many proactive initiatives to facilitatethe rapid growth of the Telecom industry like 100% ForeignDirect Investment (FDI) is permitted through the automaticroute in Telecom equipment manufacturing, the FDI ceiling inTelecom services has been raised to 74%.The Government isimplementing a program of connecting 66,822 uncovered villagesunder the Bharat Nirman programme. Further, it will invest US$ 2 billion to set up 1.12 lakh community service centres inrural India to provide broadband connectivity in 2008-09.
In another move, the Finance Ministry has declared a five-fold(from US $ 100 million to US $ 500 million) increase in theExternal Commercial Borrowings amount, which companiesinvolved in infrastructure sectors can borrow from overseasto spend in India. The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has also easedits mobile-banking norms, by raising the caps on fund transfersas well as mobile- based payments and increasing the transactionlimit to US $ 96.81 per day for fund transfers.
OPPORTUNITIES

INDUSTRY STRUCTURE AND OPPURTUNITIES
Indian Telecommunication Industry is the fastest growing Telecom industry in the world. By 2010, the industry is poised to become the
second largest Telecom industry globally, with a total subscriber base of more than 500 million in wireless and wireline segments.
The Indian Wireless Industry, with 41% penetration, is only second after China in terms of subscriber base at 441 million. Most of this
growth has come from urban India where penetration is close to 60%, but in rural markets it is less than 15%, where the industry now
sees the opportunity for growth.
The booming domestic Telecom market has been attracting huge amount of investments, which is likely to accelerate with the entry of
new players and launch of new services.
Our Government has taken many proactive initiatives to facilitate the rapid growth of the telecom industry like 100% Foreign Direct
Investment (FDI) is permitted through the automatic route in telecom equipment manufacturing, the FDI ceiling in telecom services
has been raised to 74%.The Government is implementing a program of connecting 66,822 uncovered villages under the Bharat Nirman
programme. Further, it will invest US $ 2 billion to set up 1.12 lakh community service centres in rural India to provide broadband
connectivity in 2008-09.
The future of the Indian Telecom industry is extremely bright. This sunrise industry in India is at an inflection point and the onset of 3G
services will catapult it among the technologically most advanced telecom industries worldwide, along with countries like Hong Kong,
Finland and Japan. The entry of foreign players in the industry will provide necessary technological know-how as well as huge funding
to upgrade the existing infrastructure. As far as the Telecom companies are concerned, they will see falling Average Revenue per User
in the next few quarters, though the Average Minutes of Use may go up on account of more penetration in the rural market.

INTERNAL CONTROL SYSTEM AND THEIR ADEQUACY
The Company believes in formulating adequate and effective internal control system and implementing the same to ensure that the
assets and interests of the Company are safeguarded and reliability of accounting data and its accuracy are ensured with proper checks
and balances.
The Board of Directors has constituted an Audit Committee as per the provisions of Section 292A of the Companies Act, 1956 and
Corporate Governance requirements specified by the Sock Exchanges.
MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS REPORT
17
We maintain adequate internal control systems to ensure that assets are safeguarded against loss from unauthorized use or disposition
and that the transactions are authorized, recorded and reported correctly. The internal audit function is empowered to examine the
adequacy, relevance and effectiveness of control systems, compliance with the policies, plans and statutory requirements.
The top management and the Audit & Finance Committee of the Board review the findings and recommendations of the Internal audit
panel.
RISKS AND CONSTRAINTS
Rapid changes in the global economic environment, entry of new players in the market, clients expectations, severe competition within
and outside domestic boundaries brings new challenges and various risk scenarios such as depletion in profits, adverse foreign-
exchange fluctuations, reduced margins, unforeseen legal requirements etc.
To name few, risks which are inherent in the Telecom sector are as follows:-
■ Competition : With foreign players entering in Telecom manufacturing industry, intense competition would emerge causing
longer gestation periods in Revenue Realisations. Consumers demand long term vendor credit lines which creates mismatch of
cash inflow with cash outflow and enhanced funds requirements.
■ Attracting and managing talent and intellectual capital – With fierce competition comes the talent poaching. Attracting
pool of talent and retaining it for long term basis is very critical to the success of any organization. Companies should have some
talent retention measures in place.
We continuously monitor business and operations risk through business process re-engineering and reviewing. Further our
ability to properly identify, measure, monitor and report risk is critical to our sound practices and profitability. We confirm to the
following risk management techniques to smooth functioning of our business:
● Risk Identification: We identify the risk by assessing the potential impact of internal and external factors on business transactions.
● Risk measurement: Measurement models and related assumptions are routinely reviewed to ensure that our risk estimates
are reasonable and reflective of underlying positions.
● Risk monitoring/control: We have established risk management policies and procedures. These policies have approved limits
set out for various parameters relating to customers, products and businesses, which are monitored periodically as appropriate.
● Risk reporting: It covers all lines of businesses and is provided to the management on a daily, weekly or monthly basis as
appropriate.

comprise of manufacturing and services in the related area. Turnkey Projects and trading services segment includes the turnkey
Projects and Trading in Telecom Products. Investments are primarly in the companies which are dealing in IT and telecommunication
sectors.
Revenue & expenditure which relates to enterprises as a whole and are not attributable to segments are included in unallocable
expenditure ( Net of unallocable income ) . Assets used in the Company’s business or liabilities contracted have not been
identified to any of the reportable segment , as all the assets and services are used interchangeably between segments, The
Company believes that it is currently not practicable to provide segment disclosure relating to total assets and liabilities since a
meaningful segregation of the available data is onerous.
