Note 45

There are certain disputes with the Government of India ("GOI") with respect to the Production Sharing Contract dated October 28, 1994 ("Rawa PSC") pertaining to Ravva Oil & Gas Field which were referred to more than one international arbitration for resolution. The respective International Arbitral Tribunals have issued their respective Awards from time to time substantially in favour of the Company. However the GOI has preferred to challenge few of the Awards in various Courts in India and overseas but has not succeeded so far in any of the Courts. Pending final resolution of the disputes, certain amounts have been excess recovered, deducted or short paid by the GOI and / or its Nominees which have been challenged by the Company and the Company is seeking recovery of amounts excessively recovered, deducted or short paid by the GOI and/or its Nominees. Based on legal advice, the Company believes its contentions will be upheld. Any further sum required to be paid by the Company or recoverable by the Company in respect of any of these disputes in accordance with the determination of the amount by the Hon''ble Arbitral Tribunal/relevant courts in this regard shall be accounted for on the final outcome in those matters.

Note 46

Accordingly, the Rupee Term Loans were allocated to respective Obligors based on their outstanding amount as on December 31, 2011 and the lenders have also directly disbursed further amounts to some of the Obligors. As the Company is a co-obligor, it is contingently liable in respect of the borrowings of other Obligors/Borrowers to the extent of outstanding balance of Rupee Term Loans as on March 31, 2018 of Rs. 49,173.91 Million (As at March 31, 2017 Rs 50,822.98 Million).

Note 47

Accordingly, the Company is contingently liable in respect of the LoC/SBLC facility of VOVL to the extent of Rs 1,165.59 Million (As at March 31, 2017 Rs. 198,943.99 Million).

Note 48

The Directorate of Revenue Intelligence, Mumbai Zonal Unit (''DRI'') has issued Show Cause Notice(s) (''SCN'') dated September 10, 2014 and December 30, 2014 to the Company in connection with import of Colour Picture Tubes (''CPTs'') by the Company and other concerns. Vide SCNs, the Company has been asked to explain / as to why the declared value of CPTs imported should not be rejected and re-determined and why the amount of anti-dumping duty of Rs 1,657.21 Million and penalty thereon should not be recovered under the extended period under the provisions of the Customs Act, 1962.

In order to buy peace, the Company filed application with the Adjudication Authority who vide order dated April 20, 2017 determined that the declared value of the Company is liable to be rejected and re-determined under Customs Valuation Rules read with Section 14 of the Customs Act, 1962 and the Company is liable to payment of anti-dumping duty amounting to ? 687.49 Million payable on the import of CPTs and the penalty of equivalent amount along with interest thereon under Section 114A of the Customs Act, 1962. Further, the Adjudication Authority imposed a penalty of ? 0.50 Million on the Company on High Sea Sales under Section 112(a) of the Customs Act, 1962. Subsequently, the Company has filed an appeal against the Order passed by Adjudication Authority before The Customs, Excise and Service Tax Appellate Tribunal (CESTAT) and the same is pending before the said CESTAT. The Company has been advised by its counsels that the Order passed by Adjudication Authority is untenable in the court of laws. Hence, no provision has been considered necessary in the financial statements.

Note 49

Intesa Sanpaolo S.p.A., an Italian bank, had initiated winding up proceedings against the Company on the basis of ''Patronage Letter'' issued by the Company to the said Italian bank in June, 2007 for financial assistance given to the then one level step down subsidiary, Mis. VDC Technologies S.p.A., an Italian defunct company acquired by another subsidiary of the Company, M/s. Eagle Corporation Limited registered in Cayman Island. Single judge vide judgement dated December 5, 2013 passed a conditional order of winding up of the Company on its failure to deposit in court the amount of ? 2,597.30 Million equivalent of Euro 38.00 Million, which was confirmed by the division bench of the High Court of Judicature at Bombay on July 18, 2014.

The Company had challenged the order of Bombay High Court by way of Special Leave Petition (''SLP'') in the Supreme Court. The Company had denied its liability out of the said ''Patronage Letter''. The Company, pending the final disposal of SLP, agreed to create lien on Fixed Deposit Receipts of Rs 1,363.82 Million and ? 1,210.40 Million in favour of the Registrar of Supreme Court. The Hon''ble Supreme Court had stayed the impugned order of the Bombay High Court and directed to issue notice for further hearing of the matter. The Hon''ble Supreme Court had also admitted SLP filed by the Company and final hearing was pending.

Intesa Sanpaolo S.p.A. had also obtained exparte decree against the Company from Turin Court of Italy and on the basis of said decree, Intesa Sanpaolo S.p.A. had filed suit bearing No.2434/2012 in Bombay High Court for obtaining decree against the Company. The Company had appeared in the matter and was contesting the said exparte decree on merit. While the aforesaid suits and litigation were in progress, the Company and Intesa settled the matter by filing the Consent Terms before the Hon''ble Supreme Court at Euro 21.00 Million equivalent to Rs. 1,434.31 Million. As per the Consent Terms the Company has paid Rs. 1,434.31 Million towards full and final repayment of principal sum and Intesa waived off all its other claims including interest due on loan availed by VDC Technologies S.p.A. in full and final settlement and all the pending suits / petitions are withdrawn by both the parties. Further, all rights, interest and claims against VDC Technologies S.p.A. have been assigned and transferred to the Company. However, considering that the said VDC Technologies S.p.A. is defunct and under liquidation, said amount paid on settlement is charged to revenue.

Note 50

The Company has, directly and through its subsidiaries, made investments of Rs. 75,339.53 Million in Videocon Telecommunications Limited (VTL), the subsidiary.

2016 as amended, its networth is positive and the management is confident of continuing its commercial operations in the National Long Distance (NLD) and International Long Distance (ILD) Business. Accordingly, in the opinion of the management, no provision is required for diminution in the value of aforesaid investments and advances to VTL.

Note 51

The confirmations and reconciliation of balances of certain secured and unsecured loans, balances with banks, trade receivables, trade and other payables and loans and advances are pending. The management is in the process of obtaining confirmations and reconciliation of balances. In the opinion of the management, there will not be any material impact on the standalone Ind AS financial statements.

Note 52

State Bank of India, the lead bank of the Company has initiated Corporate Insolvency Resolution Process (CIRP) for the Company under the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, 2016 as amended and has filed the petition in National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT), Mumbai. The matter is under consideration of the NCLT. In view of the above and in view of the persistent severe strains on the working capital for more than a year, there is a significant drop in the production and sale of products which raises doubt on the ability of the Company to continue as "Going Concern" for the purpose of activities and operations of the Company along with activities and operations of other co-obligor companies. Also, the referral of the Company, in line with the directives of Reserve Bank of India, to NCLT under the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code by lenders, amounts to a very material event. On this background during the year, the Company has discarded and /or disposed of certain current assets in view of the same being irretrievable for the purpose of business. The Company continues the process for ascertaining the liquidation value for remaining current assets such as raw materials, finished goods, stock-in-process, receivables etc., justifiably assuming that the going concern concept stands vitiated and necessary adjustments will be effected in the due course.

Note 53

The manufacturing activity of Glass Shell division located at Bharuch, which manufactured panels and funnels used in colour picture tube for colour television, has been suspended from July, 2017 due to poor demand of these products due to changes in technology for colour televisions. The management is of the view that the said factory and facilities can be, with some modifications, used for production of solar panel glass, solar lense, glass fibre and glass blocks which have good demand in the market. In view of the above, no provision for impairment has been considered necessary for the assets of the glass shell division at this stage.

Note 54

There are no amounts due and outstanding, to be credited to the Investor Education and Protection Fund.

Note 55.1

The said Partial/ Interim Award was challenged by GOI on 10th May, 2005 before the High Court in Malaysia with a prayer for setting aside the Partial Award dated 31st March, 2005. The Company challenged the jurisdiction of the High Court in Malaysia and therefore the maintainability of such a proceeding before that Court.

The Company has, in this respect, filed Special Leave Petition (SLP) (Civil) No. 16371 of 2008 before the Hon'ble Supreme Court of India to decide the issue of maintainability of OMP 255 of 2006.

The Tribunal by its Partial / Interim Award dated 31st March, 2005 held that the payment to the Company should be made after converting the US$ amount into Indian Rupees at the average of the State Bank of India TT Buying and TT Selling Rate (the "Middle Rate"). While accepting the said Award, the Company has worked out and submitted a computation on 30th June, 2005 to GOI indicating the amount receivable at Rs 121.43 Million being the amount short paid by GOI nominees up to 19th June, 2005 and interest thereon also calculated up to 19th June, 2005.

The payments to be made by the GOI's nominees in terms of the Award dated 31st March, 2005 is also pending before the Arbitral Tribunal in terms of the Interim Applications filed. The GOI has filed an Original Miscellaneous Petition (OMP) 329 of 2006 dated 20th July, 2006 before Hon'ble Delhi High Court challenging the award in respect of this issue. Another OMP 223 of 2006 dated 9th May, 2006 has been filed by GOI's nominees HPCL and BRPL in the Hon'ble Delhi High Court challenging the Partial Award dated 31st March, 2005 in respect of Conversion/ Exchange Rate Matter. The Hon'ble Delhi High Court has on 31st October, 2011 reserved its judgement in respect of both OMP 223 of 2006 and OMP 329 of 2006. The Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas (MoPNG) vide its letter dated 11th October, 2011, advised the GOI nominees to make payment against the amounts claimed by the Company on ad-hoc basis after obtaining appropriate indemnity from the Company. Accordingly, during the year such short payment of Rs 719.60 Million calculated till 31st December, 2011, has been accounted for as Sales/Income from Operations and amount of Rs 120.10 Million has been recognised as Interest. However, the GOI nominees have not released such amounts as yet and continue to make payments at the exchange rate without considering the directives of the Hon'ble Arbitral Tribunal and the MoPNG in this regard.

f) In respect of disputes with regards to additional profit petroleum, the GOI had vide its' letter dated 3rd November, 2006 raised a collective demand of Rs 334.13 Million on account of additional profit petroleum payable and interest on delayed payments of profit petroleum calculated up to 30th September, 2006 pursuant to the Partial Arbitral Award dated 31st March, 2005 in the Dispute stated above and Interim Award dated 12th February, 2004 and Partial Award dated 23rd December, 2004. The Company has disputed such demand and is instead seeking refund of US$ 16.70 Million equivalent to Rs 668.67 Million already excess paid by the Company to the GOI with interest thereon. Subsequently, GOI has in June 2008 through its Nominees deducted a further sum of Rs 372.21 Million being its' claim of additional profit petroleum and interest on delayed payment of profit petroleum computed up to 30th April, 2008. Such deduction, also being in contravention of the above referred Arbitral Awards, is disputed by the Company.

g) Dispute with regards to quantum allowed as the Base Development Costs (the "BDC") and consequent effect of the same to additional profit petroleum payable on account of disputed BDC was referred to international arbitration. The GOI had contended that the Contractors had claimed BDC to the extent of US$ 499 Million which is in excess of the admissible BDC of US$ 261.57 Million thus impacting the profit petroleum figures for the period upto FY 2008-09. The GOI had contended that it was eligible for sharing profit petroleum, to be calculated each year upto FY 2008-09 in respect of excessive BDC claimed by the Contractors. The Hon'ble Arbitration Tribunal has passed the Arbitral Award on 18th January, 2011 substantially in favour of the Company. However, the Arbitration Tribunal held that the GOI is entitled to be credited by the Contractors with US$ 22.31 Million (out of which the Company's share is US$ 5.58 Million being 25% of US$ 22.31 Million) in the final settlement of cost recovery accounts in relation to Development Costs incurred during contract year 1994-95 to 1999-2000 in excess of US$ 198.43 Million. Accordingly the Operator on behalf of the Company has revised the cost recovery accounts statement and calculation of the Companies' PTRR, in the DGH format, for the years 1997-98 till 2009-10, based on the findings of the Arbitration Award, and such revised statements are submitted on 29th April, 2011. The GOI has not yet responded to such communication of the Operator. Instead, the GOI has preferred an appeal against the said Arbitral Order before the Hon'ble Malaysian Federal Court at Kuala Lumpur in April 2011 and also before the Hon'ble High Court of Delhi in April 2011 seeking quashing of the Arbitral Award. The Hon'ble High Court of Delhi has vide its judgement dated 25th April, 2012 dismissed such petition. Also, the Contractors (including the Company) had filed an Anti-Suit application before the Hon'ble Malaysian Federal Court at Kuala Lumpur in June 2011 which has since been dismissed. The Contractors (including the Company) has filed an appeal against such order and the same is listed for case management on 1st June, 2012.

The said Partial/ Interim Award was challenged by GOI on 10th May, 2005 before the High Court in Malaysia with a prayer for setting aside the Partial Award dated 31st March, 2005.

The Tribunal by its Partial / Interim Award dated 31st March, 2005 held that the payment to the Company should be made after converting the US$ amount into Indian Rupees at the average of the State Bank of India TT Buying and TT Selling Rate (the "Middle Rate"). While accepting the said Award, the Company has worked out and submitted a computation on 30th June, 2005 to GOI indicating the amount receivable at Rs. 121.43 million being the amount short paid by GOI nominees up to 19th June, 2005 and interest thereon also calculated up to 19th June, 2005. The Company further sent various communications updating its’ claim receivable from GOI Nominees. During the period, the Company further updated its’ claim in this respect vide its’ letter dated 27th November, 2010 wherein total amount receivable from GOI Nominees is computed at Rs. 665.37 million, being the amount short paid by GOI Nominees up to 30th September, 2010 and interest thereon also calculated up to 30th September, 2010. The payments to be made by the GOI’s nominees in terms of the Award dated 31st March, 2005 is also pending before the Arbitral Tribunal in terms of the Interim Applications fled. The GOI has fled an Original Miscellaneous Petition (OMP) 329 of 2006 dated 20th July, 2006 before Hon’ble Delhi High Court challenging the award in respect of this issue. Another OMP 223 of 2006 dated 9th May, 2006 has been fled by GOI’s nominees HPCL and BRPL in the Hon’ble Delhi High Court challenging the Partial Award dated 31st March, 2005 in respect of Conversion/ Exchange Rate Matter. Both OMP 223 of 2006 and OMP 329 of 2006 are presently sub-judice before the Hon’ble Delhi High Court. The GOI nominees continue to make payments at the exchange rate without considering the directives of the Hon’ble Arbitral Tribunal in this regard.

c) GOI has fled OMP 255 of 2006 dated 30th May, 2006 before the Hon’ble Delhi High Court under section 9 of the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996, seeking a declaration that the seat of the arbitration as regards the disputes between the Company and the GOI is Kuala Lumpur and not

London. The Hon’ble Arbitral Tribunal vide its’ letter dated 11th April,2007 has indicated that it shall continue with the arbitration proceedings, in respect of the disputes referred above, after receiving the judgement of the Hon’ble Delhi Court in OMP 255 of 2006. The Hon’ble Delhi High Court has held, vide judgement dated 30th April, 2008, that it has the jurisdiction to hear the matters arising out of arbitration process and that the matter be heard on merits as against the Company’s contention that the said petition itself was not maintainable. The Company has, in this respect, fled Special Leave Petition (SLP) (Civil) No. 16371 of 2008 before the Hon’ble Supreme Court of India to decide the issue of maintainability of OMP 255 of 2006. The Hon’ble Supreme Court, after hearing the Parties, has on 11th May, 2011, passed judgement in the matter upholding the Company’s contentions while quashing the judgement dated 30th April, 2008 of the Hon’ble Delhi High Court.

The Company has disputed such demand and is instead seeking refund of US$ 16.70 million equivalent to Rs. 668.67 million already excess paid by the Company to the GOI with interest thereon. Subsequently, GOI has in June 2008 through its Nominees deducted a further sum of Rs. 372.21 million being its’ claim of additional profit petroleum and interest on delayed payment of profit petroleum computed up to 30th April, 2008. Such deduction, also being in contravention of the above-referred Arbitral Awards, is disputed by the Company.

e) Dispute with regards to Base Development Costs. The matter with respect to additional profit petroleum payable on account of disputed Base Development Costs was referred to international arbitration. The GOI had contended that the Contractors had claimed base development costs to the extent of US$ 499 million which is in excess of the admissible base development costs of US$ 261.57 million thus impacting the profit petroleum figures for the period upto Financial Year 2008-09. The GOI had contended that it was eligible for sharing profit petroleum, to be calculated each year upto FY 2008-09 in respect of excessive base development costs claimed by the Contractors. The Hon’ble Arbitration Tribunal has passed the Arbitral Award on 18th January, 2011 substantially in favour of the Company. However, the Arbitration Tribunal held that the GOI is entitled to be credited with US$ 22.31 million (out of which the Company’s share is US$ 5.58 million) in the final settlement of cost recovery accounts in relation to Development Costs incurred during contract year 1994-95 to 1999-2000 in excess of US$ 198.43 million. Accordingly the Operator on behalf of the Company has revised the cost recovery accounts statement and calculation of the Companies’ PTRR, in the DGH format, for the years 1997-98 till 2009-10, based on the findings of the Arbitration Award, and such revised statements are submitted on 29th April, 2011. The GOI has not yet responded to such communication of the Operator. Instead, the GOI has preferred an appeal against the said Arbitral Order before the Hon’ble Malaysian Federal Court at Kuala Lumpur in April 2011 and also before the Hon’ble High Court of Delhi in April 2011 seeking quashing of the Arbitral Award.

Any further sum required to be paid or returnable in respect of disputes referred above at (a) to (e) in accordance with the determination of the amount by the Hon’ble Arbitral Tribunal/relevant courts in this behalf shall be accounted for on the final outcome in this regard.

The Dispute was referred to an International Arbitration in accordance with the provisions of the Rawa PSC. Vide the Interim award dated 31st March, 2005, the Tribunal has upheld the Companys claims stated in (i) and (v) above whereas the claim of the Company stated in (ii), (iii) and (iv) above were rejected by the Tribunal. As regards claim stated at (vi) above, the Tribunal held that the payment to the Company is to be made after converting the USD amount into Indian Rupees at the State Bank of India MiddleRat* i.e. the average of the buying and selling rate. Further, the Supplementary Claim of the Company for payment of interest for delayed payment against invoices raised for sale of crude oil is yet to be decided by the Arbitral Tribunal. While accepting the Interim Award, the Company computed and submitted the calculation on 31st May, 2005 to GOI indicating the amount payable by theCompany after applying the said Arbitration Award at US$ 27.02 million equivalent to Rs. 1,081.88 million, which was not accepted by GOI and it claimed that the Company needs to pay US$ 43.72 million equivalent to Rs. 1,901.79 million and interest thereon applying the same Arbitration Award.

The GOI had further filed a Petition on 10th May, 2005 before the High Court in Malaysia challenging the Arbitration Award and praying for setting aside the Partial Award dated 31st March, 2005 only in respect of ONGC Carry issue. The Company challenged the jurisdiction of the said High Court and therefore the maintainability of such an appeal before that Court. The High Court has in this matter, by a pronouncement dated 5th August, 2009, upheld the contentions of the Company and dismissed the challenge filed by the GOI to the Award dated 31st March 2005 on the ONGC Carry issue.

The dispute regarding the payments to be made by the GOIs nominees in terms of the Award dated 31st March, 2005 is also pending before the Arbitral Tribunal in terms of the Interim Applications filed. The GOI has filed an Original Miscellaneous Petition (OMP) 329 of 2006 dated 20th July, 2006 before Honble Delhi High Court challenging the award in respect of this Dispute. Another OMP 223 of 2006 dated May, 2006 has been filed by GOIs nominees HPCL and BRPL in the Honble Delhi High Court challenging the Partial Award dated 31st March, 2005 in respect of Conversion/Exchange Rate Matter. Both OMP 223 Of 2006 and OMP 329 of 2006 are presently sub-judice before the Honble Delhi High Court. The GOI nominees continue to make payments at the exchange rate without considering the directives of the Honble Arbitral Tribunal in this regard.

c) GO! has filed OMP 255 of 2006 dated 30th May, 2006 before the Honble Delhi High Court under section 9 of the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996, seeking a declaration that the seat of the arbitration as regards the disputes between the Company and the GOI is Kuala Lurripur and not London.

17. The Company has prepared the Consolidated financial Statements as per Accounting Standard (AS) 21 and accordingly the segment information as per AS-17 "Segment Reporting" has been presented in the Consolidated Financial Statements.

18. Hitherto, the Company was following the "successful efforts" method of accounting in respect of oil and natural gas exploration, development and producing activities. During the year the Company has changed the method of accounting for such activities from "successful efforts" method to "full cost" method.

These activities are carried out in diverse locations, using various techniques. All costs incurred at any time and at any place in a cost centre in an attempt to add commercial reserves are an essential part of the cost of any reserves added in the cost centre. As a result they are directly associated with the enterprises reserves in that centre and all the costs should be treated as part of the cost of the mineral assets in the cost centre. The full cost method of accounting, in respect of such activities, provides better matching of income and expenses, if total costs are depreciated on pro-rata basis as the reserves in large cost centres are produced. Further, oil and gas reserves are similar to long term inventory item. Under the full cost method the annual distortions of income resulting from expensing the charges for unsuccessful pre-production activities are eliminated whereas the successful efforts method of accounting assesses success or failure too early in a project and is likely to result in an understatement of assets and net income of a growing enterprise.

In view of the above and considering the characteristics of the participating interests of the Company in joint ventures for oil and gas exploration and production in large cost centres, either directly or indirectly through subsidiaries, it has been advised to the Company that the full cost method will be more appropriate, as it provides better matching of income and expenses.

Consequent to the above change, there is no material impact on the financial statements for the year. The Production and Exploration Expenses - Oil and Gas are lower by 4.68 million and the net profit for the year, Reserves & Surplus and Capital Work-in-Progress are higher by the said amount.

19. Figures in respect of previous year have been regrouped and recasted wherever necessary to make them comparable with those of current year.
