The various appeals filed by the company against the demands raised by the Income tax department were heard subsequent to close of the accounting year and based on the favorable judgements rendered in other cases of similar natures; the management is of the view that there is no need to recognize any additional tax provision. The company has been advised that there are reasonable chances of obtaining favorable orders reducing the quantum of demand to a great extent (as against any additional outgo on account of new demands) in case the judicial precedents are followed fully in deciding these appeals, which will re-inforce the stand taken by the company.

No provision is made in this regard, as the Company has been advised that the stand of the Company will be accepted in appeal. Any additional tax provision arising out of the tax demands (inclusive of interest and penalty) will be made upon reaching the finality in respect of the assessments.

14. EXCEPTIONAL ITEMS

The break up is as under

15. Due to erosion in the net worth, the company's is unable to expand in confident manner its various operations and also arrest the continued losses sustained by it. The company's business plans that are evaluated by the bankers have re-in forced the belief of the company that its future lies in successfully exploiting its strength in running schools across the country to take care of increasing demand. With the funds raised from the bankers, the company has judiciously allocated its resources so that its operations across the group especially the operating companies are carried out in smooth manner without creating any bottle necks. In other words the company continues to use the funds raised for all common purposes so that the returns that expected flow in near future will be adequate to defray all the possible liabilities of the company.

The promoters of the company, who are one of the world leaders in education and running schools of repute, all over the world, have brought in major changes in the operation of the entire group's activities, the emphasis now being focused on establishing and running of high quality schools across the country. Accordingly, the management of the company has now decided to shed all unviable businesses which were started earlier by the old management and has now decided to have a leaner structure without carrying on the multiple subsidiary companies. The management is fully aware that any abrupt closure of these subsidiaries without evaluating the risks attached in relation thereto will further cripple the inflow of the bank finances which are necessary for the running the operations of the company. At the same time, the company has also consulted best legal minds who have advised the management to take recourse to certain legal proceedings to ensure that the interest of the company is fully secured, in recouping its dues, which the management is of the view, has not been properly safeguarded in the past. A new team of officials have been brought in, almost at the beginning of the current calendar year who are constantly pursuing various alternatives to ensure that some of the assets which are held by the subsidiaries (whether in the form of loans/advances or any interest in immovable properties - whether directly or otherwise) properly realigned in the company's books so that the company's net worth is fully protected.

The company's financial position has been constantly reviewed by the lenders who have been monitoring closely all the activities and with their cooperation the management is of the view that it will wipe out all the legacy issues and embark on a new direction. The management is of the view that despite the losses which are already forming part of the holding company as well as in the books of certain inoperative subsidiaries, the company is and will remain as a going concern and on this basis the financials / assets / liabilities are stated in the books of accounts. The Company is also taking various steps to reduce costs and improve efficiencies to make its operations profitable and accordingly the financial statements have been prepared on the basis that the Company is a going concern.

16. In respect of advances given to various parties and Debts due from government agencies and others, in view of legal advices and other opinion received no provision is considered necessary at this juncture, as the company at present is hopeful of recovering major portion of outstanding dues.

17. BUSINESS RESTRUCTURING RESERVE

The Hon 'ble High Court of Madras permitted the Company to reduce the Securities Premium Account to an amount not exceeding Rs. 150 Crores to be transferred to a separate reserve styled as "Business Restructuring Reserve"(BRR). The resolution passed by the Share Holders and approved by the Court permitted the BRR should be utilized for setting off against diminution in the value of investments, and consequent impairment of goodwill and accumulated losses, unrealized debtors and loans and advances etc.,

The Company has given effect to this order of the Hon 'ble High Court by carving out of the Share Premium Account, a sum of Rs. 150 Crore to BRR.

The Company later concluded a revised arrangement with Reliance Capital under which the operating lease arrangement was substituted by a mortgage loan with EMIs being paid over a period of 8 years up to 2022. This mortgage loan together with existing mortgage loan aggregate to Rs. 342,238 (''000) and is secured by the title deeds of third floor of the property at Perungudi, Chennai.

The revised terms a necessitated a recognition of a onetime charge of Rs. 16.54 Cr.

Accordingly, the company made a deposit of Rs. 5,00,000 (''000) towards the acquisition of three floors with the land lord. However, due to financial constraints, the company acquired only the third floor and surrendered the option to acquire the other two floors along with the deposit of Rs. 33,333 (''000) which is now reflected as an exceptional item as the negotiations were concluded during the current financial year.

2.55 Due to huge losses incurred from the financial year 2012-13 onwards, and continuing defaults /delays by customers in settling their dues andtheprevailing uncertain economic environment, the company had very little financial resources available to it to carry on its operations. Further, the dues from the Company''s customers are not backed by any tangible security/assets, the Company''s recovery efforts have to be very measured.,since the delays are attributable to the liquidity constraints of the customers

The consequent financial crunch faced by the company resulted inthecompanyhaving overdue amounts payable to creditors and certain lendersand other business support service providers. The bankers, agreed to restructure the loansandprovide fresh credit limitsprovided the company executes a satisfactory documentation as also achieves certain operating profits / financial ratios. As part of this approach and due to persistent, cash crunch, the company opted to pool all the resources of its various wholly owned subsidiaries as the business segment of all the companies are common and operate in the same field of providing ''education services'' and are structured as specific entities for the purpose of serving a specific customer segment in the same field -- educational services. These common funds were utilized to tide over temporary liquidity issues and kept the companies and subsidiaries remain as a going concern.

Debts across the group companies, namely, the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, were adjusted with a view to comply with the various covenants (including the maintaining of stipulated financial ratios) set out by the bankers for grant of further infusion of working capital limits and other loans. so that the company could continue its future business plans by focusing on key thrust areas. The Company is in negotiations with the, creditors and Bankers and is working on various solutions with them to ensure settlement of their dues. The Company is also taking various steps to reduce costs and improve efficiencies to make its operations profitable and accordingly the financial statements have been prepared on the basis that the Company is a going concern.

It is expected that with the initiation of the above steps the company will have adequate cash flowstofulfill, in aphased manner, its debt obligations.

25 In respect of advances given to various parties, Capital work in progress and Debts due from government agencies and others, in view of legal advices and other opinion receivedno provision is considered necessary at this juncture, as the company at present is hopeful of recovering major portion of outstanding dues.

26. BUSINESS RESTRUCTURING RESERVE

The Hon ''ble High Court of Madras permitted the Company to reduce the Securities Premium Account to an amount not exceeding Rs. 150 Crores to be transferred to a separate reserve styled as "Business Restructuring Reserve"(BRR).
