of acquisition of asset mentioned in para 4 (i) of the Auditors''
Report, it is submitted that demurrage and detention charges are mainly
in the nature of rental and storage expenses as machineries could not
be stored in our premises due to non-completion of construction work

allocation.
(ii) As regards inability of the Company to carry on as a going concern
mentioned in para 4 (ii) of the Auditors'' Report, it is submitted that

continuous basis due to cost of production being higher than the marker
price. The Company has represented to the government for anti-dumping
duty on imports and also applied for local content requirements in the
government projects and certain other incentives for revival of the
industry which are still awaited, thus creating uncertain conditions.

Company to carry on as a going concern.

financial statements and obtain all information and explanations
mentioned in para 5, 6 (2) (a) and 6 (2) (d) of the Auditors'' Report,
it is submitted that the auditors have not expressed any opinion on the
financial results due to their inability to collect audit evidence to
provide a basis for an audit opinion on account of multiple
uncertainties created by external and internal factors like
consideration of 2nd Corporate Debt Restructuring proposal of the
Company to the banks, key policy initiatives of the government relating
to anti-dumping duty, local content requirement, etc.
(iv) As regards internal audit system mentioned in para (vii) of the

enlarged once the Company restarts its operations.

(vi) As regards accumulated losses becoming more than fifty percent of
net worth and cash losses mentioned in para (x) of the Annexure to the

performance of the Company continued to be severely impacted due to
further downturn in SPV Cell market pricing structure due to dumping
from China in international and domestic markets at lower pricies. The
plant remained closed for significant part of the year due to
considerable fall in selling prices. Lower sales realization as well as
underutilization of capacity resulted in heavy cash losses. The fact of
erosion of net worth by more than fifty percent has been reported to
the Board for Industrial and Financial Reconstruction.
(vii) As regards funds raised on short term basis used for long term
investment mentioned in para (xvii) of the Annexure to the Auditors''

2. PERFORMANCE REVIEW
During the year under review, the Company has been severally impacted
due to sudden demand downturn in SPV cell segment resulting from
liquidity crisis in Europe, lower sales realization without
commensurate fall in raw material prices and underutilization of
capacity due to industry downturn.
Germany reduced Feed-in-Tariff from January 2011 and this gave farm
developers time to wait for better pricing. Many countries reduced
subsidy support to solar sector, in order to combat their fiscal
deficit. This resulted in lower off take of solar products globally
leading to reduced demand. This downturn was entirely unanticipated and
had taken the industry by surprise.
The demand had suddenly eroded while the supply chain was in full ramp.
This created an artificially high inventory pile-up in Asia as well as
at European ports and the same resulted in over 60% price erosion
worldwide. These factors also caused halt in operations of solar
industry globally.
Indosolar also got affected severely and its operations showed heavy
losses. Since beginning of the year, the plant was operating at a very
low capacity and it remained totally closed from September 2011
onwards. The liquidity had dried-up and the Company was not in a
position to service its debt till revival of the market. So, the
Company approached its bankers for restructuring of debts under CDR
route.
During the year under review, your Company reported total income of Rs.
97.19 Crores as against Rs. 591.03 Crores last year. After making a
provision of Rs. 57.28 Crores towards interest and Rs. 34.22 Crores
towards depreciation, the current financial year closed with a loss of
Rs. 202.36 Crores as against loss of Rs. 57.44 Crores last year.
3. CORPORATE DEBT RESTRUCTURING
In order to address the above situation, the Company applied to the
Corporate Debt Restructuring (CDR) Forum set up under Reserve Bank of
India for debt restructuring during September 2011 with an intention
that the debt re-alignment under CDR aegis would help the Company and
the lenders to address the situation quickly and in a scientific
manner. The Company has been sanctioned CDR package by CDR Forum vide
its letter dated 07.03.2012. The package is effective from 01.07.2011
and includes, inter-alia, reduction in rate of interest on loans,
rescheduling of the loan repayment period with an initial moratorium of
24 months from effective date, sanction of additional CAPEX of Rs. 100
Crores for completing the expansion of 200 MW solar cell project,
interest on loans during the moratorium period will be funded by
additional Funded Interest Term Loan (FITL).
After getting approval form CDR Forum, the Company has entered into
Master Restructuring Agreement, alongwith other security documents,
with the consortium of banks and CDR package has been implemented.
4. STATUS OF IMPLEMENTATION OF 200 MW PROJECT
The Company is in the process of setting-up 200 MW solar cell
manufacturing line to be financed through a mix of debt and equity.
Union Bank of India had appraised the project and established LC of Rs.
228 Crores for import of 200 MW line against its debt underwriting of
Rs. 275 Crores. The Company had also spent Rs. 179.66 Crores for the
said expansion as equity contribution. The solar cell manufacturing
line has already arrived, however, Company requires additional funding
to the extent of Rs. 147 Crores to complete the project. In view of
declining financial performance of the Company as well as weak outlook
of solar sector in the short run, the bankers were reluctant to provide
balance funding. However, CDR Forum has considered setting-up of 200 MW
line as an integral component for success of the Company and approved
additional CAPEX of Rs. 100 Crores for completing the expansion over
and above Rs. 47 Crores already sanctioned by Union Bank of India.
5. DIVIDEND
Due to non availability of profit, your Directors do not recommend any
dividend for the year ended 31st March, 2012.

On the Auditors' observations, reply from the management is as under:
(i) As regards delay in payment of service tax and work contract tax

(ii) As regards accumulated losses becoming more than fifty percent of
net worth and cash losses mentioned in para (x) of the Annexure to the

realization without commensurate fall in raw material prices and
underutilization of capacity due to industry downturn. The demand had
suddenly eroded while the supply chain was in full ramp. This created
an artificially high inventory pile-up in Asia as well as at European

factors also caused halt in operations of solar industry globally.

losses. As regards erosion of net worth by more than fifty percent, the
Company is taking required necessary steps.

the empowered group committee and the delays were condoned and
rectified.

2. PERFORMANCE REVIEW
During the year under review, your Company reported total income of Rs.
591.03 Crores as against Rs. 131.48 Crores last year. After making for

towards depreciation, the current financial year closed with a loss of
Rs. 57.44 Crores as against loss of Rs. 66.38 Crores last year.
The Company is operating two SPV cell manufacturing lines of 80 MW
each. First line commenced commercial production in July, 2009 and
second line commenced commercial production in March, 2010. First line
continued its operations smoothly, however, operations of second line
stabilized only during October, 2010. This resulted in higher raw
material consumption, excessive wastage, lower product efficiency and
high operating cost. In view of delay in stabilization of operations of
second line, the equipment supplier has given a cash support of Euro
5.00 million towards operational losses and Euro 1.50 million for delay
in supply of machinery.
3. DIVIDEND
Due to non availability of profit, your Directors do not recommend any
dividend for the year ended 31st March, 2011.
4. INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING OF THE EQUITY SHARES OF THE COMPANY (IPO)
AND LISTING OF EQUITY SHARES
Your Company came out with an IPO of Rs. 357 Crores during September,
2010 to (i) finance the expansion of manufacturing capacity of SPV
cells by adding a new line of 100 MW thereby making total SPV cell
manufacturing capacity to 260 MW and (ii) for General Corporate
Purposes. The Board made allotment of 12,31,03,448 Equity Shares under
IPO at a price of Rs. 29/- per Equity Share (including a Share Premium
of Rs. 19/- per Equity Share). The Board had also made pre-IPO
placement of 36,40,579 Equity Shares at a price of Rs. 40/- per Equity
Share (including a Share Premium of Rs. 30/- per Equity Share).
Consequently, the paid-up equity share capital of the Company has
increased to Rs. 335,14,40,270/- (Rupees Three Hundred Thirty Five
Crores Fourteen Lacs Forty Thousand Two Hundred Seventy only) divided
into 33,51,44,027 (Thirty Three Crores Fifty One Lac Forty Four
Thousand Twenty Seven) Equity Shares of Rs. 10/- (Rupees Ten) each.
Your Company has got the listing and trading approvals for 33,51,44,027
Equity Shares with effect from 29th September, 2010 both from National
Stock Exchange of India Limited ("NSE") and Bombay Stock Exchange
Limited ("BSE").
5. PROJECT EXPANSION
The 100 MW SPV cell manufacturing line was available at a price of Euro
36.50 million from our technology partner M/s Schmid Technology
Systems, GmbH, Germany ("Schmid"). However, in the course of
negotiation of prices with Schmid, they offered their newly developed
SPV cell manufacturing line of 200 MW at a price of Euro 54 million.
Total cost for setting-up new Line of 200 MW has been estimated at Rs.
550 Crores and the Board decided to set- up SPV cell manufacturing line
of 200 MW due to the following reasons:
(i) Cost of equipment per MW would be significantly lower in case of
200 MW SPV cell manufacturing line as against 100 MW SPV cell
manufacturing line;
(ii) As per the Special Incentive Package scheme announced by the
Ministry of Communications and Information Technology, Government of
India, the Company would be entitled to receive 25% capital subsidy on
total project cost in cash once the investment in the project exceeds
Rs. 1,000 Crores threshold limit. By setting-up a line of 200 MW, we
would comfortably cross the threshold limit of Rs. 1,000 Crores
prescribed by the Ministry and become eligible for 25% capital subsidy.
There would also be substantial improvement of liquidity in the Company
consequent to receipt of the capital subsidy money;
(iii) Considering the exponential growth in the PV industry, it is
prudent to establish higher capacity to take the early mover advantage;
and
(iv) Addition of 200 MW line will result in optimum utilization of
infrastructure available with the Company and also bring advantages of
economies of scale.
Expansion of SPV cell manufacturing capacity by 200 MW instead of 100
MW has also been approved by the shareholders by way of postal ballot
process on 31st January, 2011. The details of the postal ballot have
been given in the Corporate Governance Report.
The management decided to finance the expansion of 200 MW line to the
extent of Rs. 200 Crores from IPO proceeds and balance by way of Term
Loans from banks / ECB / Deferred import LC / Deferred Credit / ECA
backed funding or by way of any combination of above or by any other
means of finance as may be sanctioned by banks / financial institutions
and balance IPO proceeds to be utilized for meeting the working capital
and other day-to-day funds requirements of the Company, making advance
payments for securing long term wafer supply as well as for General
Corporate Purposes.
Your Company submitted proposal with Union Bank of India, being the
lead consortium Bank, for sanction and tie- up of financial assistance
upto Rs. 400 Crores. Union Bank of India has appraised / approved the
project and also established LC of Rs. 228 Crores for import of 200 MW
line. The Company had already made capital expenditure of Rs. 123.18
Crores for the said expansion as equity contribution for the project
upto 31st March, 2011.
