I GOT GARBAGE
Mindtree built a technology platform I Got Garbage to bring together
businesses, government organizations and social entrepreneurs to
transform the loosely organized Indian rag picking community into
organized waste management service providers. Today, 21 NGOs work with
7,000 waste collectors to provide a more ecient and structured waste
management system.
This unique, innovative waste management supply chain improves the
working conditions of rag pickers, protecting them from exposure to
hazardous chemicals and infectious diseases. Now, instead of scavenging for
recyclables on garbage heaps, people can collect waste directly from
residential and business sources. The approach increases the overall
eciency of recyclable recovery, creates a more stable, safer work
environment for thousands of people and helps cities manage waste better.
I Got Garbage is a cloud based technology platform to disseminate
information on waste segregation, oer assistance in system training,
on-boarding and technical support and engage all stakeholders in
upcoming programs.

Executive messages
Engaging with our global clients in our key markets
is asking us to be locally present and visible. We are
making investments towards this. We are happy to
report that the rst integrated development center
we opened in the U.S. at Gainesville, Florida has
completed a successful year. It is modelled to be a
Centre of Excellence for Agile and Digital. In line with
our strategy, we have now set up another large
delivery center in Redmond, U.S. The state-of-the-art
facility will focus on delivering cutting-edge
solutions in the areas of cloud, mobility,
infrastructure management and testing.
Our sharp focus on select verticals is winning us
attention and accolades. Mindtree has been named
Major Contender in Everest Groups report from their
worldwide research in outsourcing of IT services in
Banking, Financial Services and Insurance. Two
Mindtree solutions took top honors at the SAP 2013
Industry Mobile Application Challenges at the SAP
TechEd conference in Las Vegas. Our MInspect
solution won the SAP 2013 Transport and Logistics
Mobile App Challenge and MPromo solution won the
SAP 2013 Retail Mobile Application Challenge. We
launched Gladius, an advanced video management
solution to meet surveillance needs in cities,
industries and the retail sector.
Looking ahead, we see the need to make continued

investments in building deep domain knowledge. We
need to increase scale in our global markets with
investments in infrastructure and leadership. We also
need greater adoption of OneMind, our next
generation delivery platform to take up larger,
transformative IT deals.
As we close, we assure you that we remain rmly
committed to delivering enhanced value to all our
stakeholders. All of us at Mindtree are very excited
about the road ahead. We feel condent that we will
achieve outstanding results through focus and
ecient execution. Our passionate and committed
team of 12,926 Mindtree Minds join us in thanking
you and we look forward to an exciting year ahead
with new milestones and greater achievements.
Sincerely,
Subroto Bagchi
Chairman
Krishnakumar Natarajan
CEO and Managing Director
Another major initiative has been our continued

focus on capacity building for leadership. We have
been always blessed to have some of the best people
in the industry at the helm. We are adding to that by
inducting several key executives from the world
outside to create diversity. Last year, we welcomed
Paul Gottsegen, Senior Vice President and Chief
Marketing and Strategy Ocer, Ramesh Pillai, Senior
Vice President and Global Head of Hi-Tech services
and Mark Wilsdon, Vice President and Head of Sales
for UK and EU. In addition, we further enhanced the
capabilities of the Mindtree Board with the addition

CFOs message
Highlights for FY 2013-14

Achieved billion dollar
market capitalization
Strong ROCE and signicantly
higher net margin growth
International recognition for
corporate governance
Dear Shareholder,
FY 2013-14 oered tremendous opportunities for an
emerging star like Mindtree though there have been periods
of turbulence in our industry. Even in a volatile
environment, we had several satisfying milestones to report
as we partnered with our clients on their transformational IT
initiatives. In the year gone by, we have further sharpened
our strategic focus and since we saw strong medium term
opportunities, we made the investments necessary to drive
higher than industry growth over the next few years.
Highlights for FY 2013-14
We crossed half a billion dollar revenue mark. Our market
capitalization touched a billion dollars. We delivered strong
ROCE and for the second year, our net margin growth was
much higher than our revenue growth. We received
international recognition for corporate governance. Our
strong nancials and prudent nancial management allow
us to capitalize on the momentum we see in our business.
Executive messages
Our priorities for FY 2014-15
We will continue to focus on growth through
disciplined investments and resource allocation and
by eciently managing the varied and complex risks
that we face, running a global business in a highly
dynamic environment.
Corporate governance
We believe long-term success is founded on strong
governance. It is through good governance that we
can deliver sustainable value to our various
stakeholders. Such governance practices create trust
between the Company and its stakeholders. The
framework we have laid for ethical practices is a key
part of our values and strategy for the future they
are indeed the very soul of your Company. We not
only partner with our clients on their strategic IT
programs, but also with the communities in which we
operate to help societies ourish. The values we
espouse are not only statements, but are embedded
within the nancial and operational controls and
review mechanisms that we have put in place within
the Company. All these eorts are, in a small way,
validated by the recognitions we have received in
India and internationally, for corporate governance
practices.
Outlook for FY 2014-15
When we engage with our clients, we hear a mixed
response optimism about their own outlook for
their business which drives them to work with us on
strategic IT initiatives but also concern about the
economic and geo-political uncertainties facing the
world today. This makes us optimistic without being
complacent about our growth for FY 2014-15.
As the year unfolds, we are condent that

FY 2014-15 will see us once again beating the
industry average growth rates as well as the 15%
growth we clocked in FY 2013-14. As mentioned
before, we see some challenges in the external
environment, but we have adapted ourselves to these
realities. Our nancial, operational, brand positioning
and client service capabilities are stronger than ever
before. This gives us condence that we will start the
new nancial year on a good note and continue that
trend through the year. Since we expect to deliver
good nancial performance, we expect to continue to
maintain a good dividend payout ratio, as we have
been doing till now.
I would like to end by thanking the outstanding team
in your Finance, Risk Management, Information
Systems, Procurement, Administration, Travel and
Immigration teams that I am proud to lead, who take
their stewardship responsibilities very seriously and
are continuously pushing the envelope to deliver
results through collaboration, dedication and
expertise in their respective areas.
Finally, I am deeply grateful to all our investors for
your goodwill and support. Your support motivates
us to do our best every day. We assure you that we
will do everything we can to deliver sustainable
results for all our stakeholders.
Sincerely,
Rostow Ravanan

Introduction
Mindtrees sustainability approach is built on
business practices across the nine principles stated in
the National Voluntary Guidelines (NVG) on social
environmental and economic responsibilities of
business, released by the Indian Ministry of
Corporate Aairs. This report describes how Mindtree
practices sustainability through accountability and
governance built on ethical practices. We believe in
the values of environmental sustenance and resource
conservation. We respect and protect human rights to
ensure the well-being of Mindtree Minds and add
value to our clients.
Scope
The scope of the FY 2013-14 report covers economic
parameters across locations globally and social and
environmental parameters across locations in India.
The sections covered in this report are mapped to the
corresponding NVG principles below:

Sustainability framework
Our sustainability framework focuses on three
themes: people, planet and prot. It is designed to
promote transparency, accountability, sound
environmental practices and social responsibility.
Stakeholder engagement
Our goal is to become a globally admired
organization and earn the respect of all our
stakeholders - Mindtree Minds and their families,
customers, partners, suppliers, vendors, shareholders,
communities, government and regulatory bodies.
Engaging with our stakeholders is an integral
component of an expertise led organization. We
determine material aspects through a rigorous
brainstorming process involving key stakeholders
within the organization. This, we believe, will provide
us with valuable insights and will catalyze
continuous improvement. The feedback received
through the process of stakeholder engagement is a
crucial input into our strategy setting process and
denes our actions in the future.

Corporate governance and advocacy
Sustainable governance
Mindtrees sustainability policy guides our
stakeholder engagement and inuences our
day-to-day operations. We have a comprehensive
code of conduct that sets broad directions for all
business dealings. The policies include specic
guidelines on information security, third-party
relationships, equal opportunity, human rights and
workplace behaviors. The code of conduct links to
three other policies:
Anti-bribery and anti-corruption policy: Mindtree is
committed to the prevention, deterrence and
detection of fraud, bribery and all other corrupt and
unethical business practices.
Integrity policy: Every Mindtree Mind is issued an
Integrity policy booklet and all of them, irrespective
of level, role and location, are bound by it.
Whistle blower policy: This policy establishes
mechanisms that allow secure disclosures of
incidents related to corporate governance, related
party transactions, siphoning of funds,
non-compliance of the law of the land,
concealing legal mandatory disclosures, breach of
duciary responsibilities, nancial irregularities,
sexual harassment, misuse of intellectual property,
breach of integrity and any suspicious activity /
event which indicates a potential threat to the
security of Mindtrees assets and people. Total 15
cases were reported during the year. All the cases
were investigated and brought to closure by taking
appropriate actions.
Advocacy
We participate actively in forums such as NASSCOM
and CII to share our best practices of corporate
governance standards. We comply with various codes
such as the UN Global Compact (UNGC) program and
the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and
Development (OECD) Principles of Corporate
Governance. Our participation allows us to
continuously benchmark our eorts to raise the bar
in corporate governance.
Workplace sustainability
Engagement
Mindtrees values create a global foundation for
engagement, learning and empowerment for every
Mindtree Mind - from candidate selection to exit
interview.
16
The Mindtree Minds engagement practice

encompasses communications, performance clarity
and feedback, organizational culture, rewards and
recognition, relationships with managers and peers,
career development opportunities and knowledge of
the organizations goals and vision.

We have an Investor Grievances Committee represented by the Board to examine and redress Shareholders' and Investors' complaints. The process
and approval of share transfer has been delegated to the Company Secretary and Share Transfer Agent by the Board. The Company Secretary
approves the share transfers and reports the same to the Board at every quarterly meeting as may be applicable.
The share transfer system with respect to physical shares consists of activities like, receipt of shares along with transfer deed from transferees, its
verification, preparation of Memorandum of Transfers, its approval by the respective Committee and dispatch of duly endorsed share certificates to
the respective transferees within the prescribed time as per the Listing Agreement. In line with SEBIs Circular dated July 5, 2012, share certificates
are being issued within 15 days of date of lodgment for transfer, sub-division and consolidation. Adequate care is taken to ensure that no transfers

Economy & IT Services Industry
Global economy strengthened during the second half of 2013. The overall world economy is expected to improve further in 201415, largely on
account of recovery in the developed economies. Global growth is projected to be around 3.6% in 2014, rising to 3.9% in 2015 as compared to 3.0%
in 20131 .
Growth in the United States is expected to be 2.8% in 2014, up from 1.9% in 2013. Euro area is turning the corner from recession to recovery. Growth
is projected to strengthen to 1.2% in 2014 and 1.5% in 2015, but the recovery will be uneven amongst nations in the Euro Zone.
Growth in the emerging market and developing economies is expected to increase to 4.9% in 2014 and to 5.4% in 2015. Growth in China rebounded
strongly in the second half of 2013, largely due to acceleration in investment. China grew by 7.7% in 2013, same as in 2012. It is expected to grow by
7.5% in 2014. Growth in India picked up after a favorable monsoon season and higher export growth and is expected to firm further on stronger
structural policies supporting investment. It grew by 4.4% in 2013 and is expected to grow by 5.4% in 2014. Many other emerging market and
developing economies have started to benefit from stronger external demand in the developed economies and China.
Global IT services spending has shown recovery, driven by improvements in macro-economic fundamentals. Worldwide spending on IT services
accelerated by 4.5% in 2013 compared to 1.5% growth in 2012. The total IT services spending is expected to carry the momentum further into 2014.
As per NASSCOM, the worldwide IT-BPO outsourcing market size grew by 8.1% to $134-140 billion in 2013. India continues to be the leader in the ITBPO outsourcing market, with a significant cost-advantage and with a 55% market share, up from 52% the previous year. Indian IT-BPO companies
captured 90% of the incremental market, showcasing its increased significance in the global outsourcing market. NASSCOM estimates that Indian ITBPO services exports shall grow by 13-15% to $97-100 billion in FY2015, compared to~13% growth in FY2014. There is significant headroom for
Indian players to grow. This is reflected in the relative growth rate of Indian players, which is more than double the growth rate of overall market.
The emerging technologies are poised to redefine the future of the IT services industry. These are popularly known as SMAC (Social, Mobile,
Advanced analytics, Cloud) technologies. Many companies, both in consumer as well as supplier side, have started embracing the change. Companies
have started creating designation like Chief Analytics Officer, Chief Data Officer and Chief Innovation Officer while IT suppliers have begun creating
Center of Excellence (CoE) in these areas.
The overall IT services demand is expected to be higher from traditional markets like US, UK and Continental Europe compared to the Rest of the
World.

Income
FY14 has been a momentous year for Mindtree. We crossed the significant milestone of half a billion mark (in $) in revenues. Revenue for the
year in $ terms grew by 15.1% to $501.5 million. This is mainly attributable to the progress in our effort to increase our strategic relevance to
our clients. Some of the key interventions that have yielded positive results are:
m Our client mining initiatives continue to yield good results. Our top 10 clients have grown at 19%, faster than Mindtrees average.Our $ 20 million
clients increased from 5 to 6, $ 10 million clients increased from 9 to 13 and $ 5 million clients increased from 20 to 24.
m Our recent wins have been multi-million dollar and multi-year wins. Our initiative of having separate teams for hunting and farming is improving
our ability to get better quality deals. Our revenues from new logos has increased from 3.6% in FY13 to 4.1% in FY14. We have invested
significantly in our front end sales teams towards this initiative.
m Our positioning as multi-segment specialists is progressing well, resulting in an all-round performance from most verticals and service lines. Our
revenue from Infrastructure Management and Tech Support grew by 52.2%, followed by Maintenance revenue which grew by 21.5% in the
current year. Among the verticals, Manufacturing, CPG and Retail grew by 30.1%, followed by BFSI and Travel & Transport which grew by 18.4%
and 16.2% respectively.
m From a mix perspective, growth has been driven by onsite revenue (growth of 27.4%) as compared to a growth of 7.2% in offshore revenues. The
increase in onsite traction is due to the nature of client engagements, which are critical in nature and which requires near shore delivery. Our
presence through a delivery center in Gainesville, Florida is also showing good traction in terms of our near shore delivery.
m From a geography perspective, America and Rest of the World have grown significantly by 17.4% and 37.9% respectively.

Other income (excluding foreign exchange gain)

Other income for the year ended March 31, 2014 is ` 376 million and has increased by ` 26 million over the previous year (` 350 million). This is
mainly because of higher investment income during the year.
Foreign exchange loss/gain
Foreign exchange gain for the year ended March 31, 2014 is `120 million as compared to a loss of ` 340 million in the previous year. The gain is
mainly on account of better realization as rupee depreciated by 11.5% during the year.
Expenses
Employee benefits expenses
Employee benefits forms our largest cost. At 58.8% of the total revenue from operations, it includes the fixed as well as the variable components of
employees salaries, contribution to provident funds, gratuity etc. Staff welfare expenses incurred for the employees also form a part of this cost.
Break-up of this head of expenses in comparison with previous year numbers is given below:

compared to last year.
On an overall level, other expenses have grown by 42.8% as compared to last year mainly due to increases in travel expenses, sub-contractor
charges and legal and professional charges which have increased by 56.8%, 63.3% and 55% respectively.
Profitability and Margins
!
We crossed a significant milestone of $100 million in operating margins/ EBITDA. EBITDA margins have dropped marginally from 20.6% to
20.1% in the current year. The decrease is primarily attributable to:
!
Increase in other expenses by 2.1% and
! Offset by a decrease in employee benefits expenses by 1.6%, as explained above in the employee benefits expense and other expenses
paragraphs.
!
Our effective tax rate has increased from 20% in the previous year to 22% in the current year. This is mainly because of increase in surcharge
from 5% to 10% in the current year.
PAT has increased from 14.4% to 14.9% in the current year mainly due to foreign exchange gain of ` 120 million in the current year as compared
to a loss of ` 340 million in the previous year.
Segmental Reporting
Effective April 1, 2013, the Group has restructured its organisational and management structure and its internal financial reporting structure to be
better aligned to market needs. Pursuant to such re-organization, the Group has identified Manufacturing, BFSI, Hitech, Travel and Transportation
and Others as its reportable business segments. Accordingly, as required by the Accounting Standards(AS), comparatives have been restated and
presented in line with the current segments.
The accounting principles consistently used in the preparation of the financial statements are also consistently applied to record income and
expenditure in individual segments.
Income and direct expenses in relation to segments are categorised based on items that are individually identifiable to that segment, while the
remainder of costs are apportioned on an appropriate basis. Certain expenses are not specifically allocable to individual segments as the
underlying services are used interchangeably. The Group therefore believes that it is not practical to provide segment disclosures relating to such
expenses and accordingly such expenses are separately disclosed as unallocable and directly charged against total income.
The assets of the Group are used interchangeably between segments, and the management believes that it is currently not practical to provide
segment disclosures relating to total assets and liabilities since a meaningful segregation is not possible.

15% in the same period. We will continue investing in our account management teams to extend our farming successes beyond our top 10
customers.
During FY14, $5 million customers increased by 4 to 24; $10 million customers increased by 4 to 13; $20 million customers increased by 1 to 6.
97% of our revenues in FY 14 have come from repeat business (existing customers). Revenue per customer has been on the rise, signaling our
success in mining focus accounts.
One of the most promising indicators of our customer-focused growth approach is the fact that our customers have rated us better than last year
on all key parameters (satisfaction, loyalty and advocacy), as part of our annual customer experience survey. Over 83% of our customers
participated in this survey.

Threats Risks and Concerns

A summary of Threats, Risks & Concerns is provided below. For a more detailed view of Mindtrees risk management program, please refer to the
Mindtree Risk Management Report.
RISK DESCRIPTION
UNCERTAIN ECONOMIC ENVIRONMENT
Economic uncertainties in leading economies like the United
States (US) and Europe can impact demand for IT services
The overall business environment remains a little uncertain
given the macro economic issues in the US and Europe.
While the business sentiment in the US seems to be looking up,
this still needs to be supported by increased demand for IT
services. Europe is turning the corner from recession to recovery,
but the recovery is uncertain across countries and sectors.
RISK MANAGEMENT PLAN

Industry body NASSCOM has predicted growth of 13-15% in
FY14-15 for the Indian IT services Industry. The U.S. economy is
showing a positive outlook with multiple economic parameters
showing positive trends.
In Europe, Mindtree has focused on countries including
Germany, U.K., Sweden and the Netherlands which have strong
economies, to get a larger share of revenue from these countries.
LEGISLATION IMPACTING OUTSOURCING

Restrictions on outsourcing or offshoring may impact our
business since 95.2% of our revenue is derived from
international business.
While some of these regulatory changes are not likely to impact

our business in a major way, others like the proposed U.S.
immigration reform legislation or any other substantive antioutsourcing legislation may hurt our prospects.
With about 58% of our revenues from the U.S.A., any restrictions
on outsourcing services and visas by the U.S. affects our
business.
Currently the U.S. immigration reform bill has been passed by

the U.S. Senate and is pending in the House. Given the current
political situation in the U.S., it is expected that the passage of
the bill in the House is likely to be a long drawn affair and some
of the adverse provisions could get modified to be less
restrictive.
The proposed Senate Immigration reform bill if passed as law in

its current form, will impact our business significantly. Some of
the key provisions in the bill would severely restrict our ability to
perform our services onsite in the United States.
Industry body NASSCOM has taken the lead to disseminate the

significant benefits of IT outsourcing to governments,
administrations and policy makers in the USA and other
geographies.
In addition we are evaluating different business models to
improve the onsite/offshore delivery mix, further enhancements
to global development centers, local acquisitions and other
options. We have expanded our global delivery model and have
established development centers in the United States and
Belgium and are exploring additional global development
centers as well.
PRICING PRESSURES
In a highly competitive environment we may face margin
pressures.
Such pressures may be due to customers having tough
expectations on pricing or due to tactical movements on the part
of our competitors to gain market share.
COMPETITION
Mindtree risks losing business to larger players in the industry
or emerging challengers.
We primarily face competition from Indian as well as
international companies and captive offshore centers. Given the
dynamics of our industry, Mindtree faces the risks of
competitors coming up with new offerings to challenge our
market share and growth. In addition, there may be challenges
posed by different business models offered by competitors.
We are focusing on providing higher value and differentiated

services to beat pricing pressures. Our strategy is centered on
doing more with less and building deep domain expertise in our
chosen areas. This approach should help us manage pressures
on pricing at least partly.
Our focus will be to grow in line with our strategy. We are

focused on a set of verticals which are BFSI, HiTech,
Manufacturing, Retail, Consumer Packaged Goods and Travel &
Media. The service lines which will help drive higher growth are
Analytics and Information Management, Business Intelligence,
Packaged Solutions, Digital Business, Infrastructure
Management Services, Testing and emerging areas of Cloud,
Mobility and Big Data. The market for all these areas is highly
competitive and rapidly evolving.
As part of our strategic initiatives we have focused on additional
investments to strengthen our marketing, sales and account
management teams to ensure continued business growth over
the short and long term.
64
TALENT ACQUISITION AND RETENTION

Our success depends upon our ability to attract and retain
highly skilled personnel.
Due to the limited pool of available skilled personnel, we face
strong competition to recruit and retain skilled &
professionally qualified staff.
Our talent acquisition philosophy is to recruit for attitude, train

for skill and develop for leadership roles. We follow a role-based
selection process and place high emphasis on cultural fit of the
prospective staff members with our organizational values. Our
efforts have ensured that Mindtree is seen as an employer of
choice.
Our attrition levels are amongst the best in the industry. For the
financial year 2013-14 our attrition percentage was at 12.66%.
We maintain our high people satisfaction and engagement by
offering personnel challenging job roles, onsite opportunities,
compensation reviews and promotions. In addition, other
retention mechanisms include training, job rotations and
recognition/ appreciation programs.
KEY CLIENT LOSS

Business impact due to loss of key client
Given our business strategy of focusing on key clients for
revenue growth, loss of such clients may severely impact
Mindtrees business.
Given our track record with our top customers, we are confident
of continued mutually beneficial association. To further enhance
our business relationships, we have made significant
investments in developing connections at different levels with
our key clients.
We have also implemented the concept of executive
sponsorship for large accounts to ensure appropriate oversight
and support to account management teams from executive
management.
OPERATIONS RISK
Operations risk refers to risks integral to business operations.
Operations risk includes fraud, security breaches, business
continuity, quality and similar risks which may impact the
reputation and business performance of Mindtree.
Mindtree has made significant investments in developing

operational risk management mechanisms. We are an ISO27001
certified company and have implemented stringent security
measures to secure our personnel and assets. Mindtree also has
a comprehensive business continuity management program to
ensure client service is minimally impacted due to natural and
man-made adversities.
Mindtree uses multiple standards and models to deliver
predictably with high quality such as ISO 14000 and ISO 20000.
Mindtree is assessed to Capability Maturity Model Integration
(CMMI) DEV 1.3 Level 5, the highest maturity level for all strategic
projects being executed from Bangalore and Chennai.
We have a documented Whistle Blower Policy to report any
instances of fraud or unethical behavior.
FOREIGN CURRENCY RATE FLUCTUATIONS

A major portion of our revenues are in foreign currencies and
a significant portion of our expenses are in Indian Rupees.
The exchange rate between the Indian Rupee and the U.S.
dollar as well as other currencies has been very volatile in
recent years and may continue similarly in future. Our
operating results are impacted by fluctuations in the exchange
rate between the Indian Rupee and the U.S. Dollar and other
foreign currencies.
UNSTABLE LAW AND ORDER SITUATION
Government assessments indicate that the software industry
could be a potential target for a terrorist attack.
Mindtree has a formal hedging strategy which is reviewed

periodically. Judiciously hedging against adverse foreign
exchange exposures helps to minimize the impact of exchange
fluctuations. We continue to maintain a prudent and balanced
forex management policy which we expect will help us manage
this risk appropriately.
As part of our Business Continuity Plans, we have taken stock of

our preparedness to face this risk and have built defence and
response mechanisms. We have initiated steps to enhance
protection at all our centers.
Given the international repute of the Indian IT industry, its key

role in the national economy and its manpower intensive
nature, there is an ever present risk that terrorists may target
IT companies like Mindtree.
65
COMPLIANCE RISKS
Adherence to laws, regulations and local statutes across the
globe is a challenge to any IT company today.
Every country has its own law with respect to immigration,
travel, visa, social security, privacy and data protection etc.
which needs a detailed assessment and compliance. There is a
risk of non compliance in the geographies which we operate
in.
Mindtree has a dedicated in-house Compliance team which

manages this activity. We have knowledgeable consultants
across the globe, who support us in adhering to country specific
compliance requirements. We have also invested in the
necessary compliance tools to enhance and streamline the
compliance process.
Internal control systems and their adequacy

The CEO and CFO Certification provided in the CEO and CFO Certification section of the Annual Report discusses the adequacy of our internal control
system and procedures
Our strategy
Our execution continues to be guided by the following four strategy pillars, enabling us to grow faster and generate higher returns to our
stakeholders.

delivering superior financial performance, innovation and industry leadership in our chosen verticals. With global economic outlook improving, we
expect our relationship with our clients to become more strategic for each other. Mindtree is confident of delivering broad-based growth in FY15,
higher than in FY14.

Enterprise Risk Management Report

Mindtree believes in encouraging a culture of informed risk taking to achieve growth. The objective of our Enterprise Risk management (ERM)
program is to facilitate informed and responsible risk taking by the organization. The Mindtree ERM framework has been designed by looking at
frameworks of COSO, ISO 31000: 2009 and the IRM Risk Management Standard and by incorporating elements of these frameworks and
customizing them to Mindtree requirements. Risks to key business goals are identified and assessed under defined categories. Processes have been
laid down to treat, monitor and report risks accordingly.

Assessment
The following risk categories have been defined for Mindtree:

Strategic Risks: Strategic risks can be defined as the uncertainties and untapped opportunities embedded in the strategic intent and how well
they are executed. Strategic risks are evaluated from the perspective of impact they would have on the entire business and are not restricted to a
specific business unit. Strategic risks include Competition, M&A, Industry Changes, Strategy Development and Loss of Large Business.
Environment and Market Risks: Environment and market risks include uncertainties and untapped opportunities arising due to changes in the
global economy/ market fluctuations or disruptive business models/ innovations.
Operations Risks: Operations risks include risks to efficient and effective utilization of resources (excluding financial resources). This category
includes all the uncertainties faced by corporate enabling functions and includes areas such as Business Continuity Management (BCM), Security,
Physical Infrastructure and Facilities, IT Infrastructure, People -related risks, vendor management, immigration, sustainability and quality risks.
Financial Risks: Financial risks include uncertainties and untapped opportunities in effective and efficient utilization of financial resources as
well as uncertainties in financial reporting. In addition, risks in the areas of currency fluctuation, liquidity and funding, capital management, credit
risk and financial guidance are addressed as part of financial risks.
Compliance and Internal Control Risks: These risks cover risks due to non-compliance to applicable laws, regulations and standards or ineffective
internal controls leading to potential fraud in key operational areas.
Contractual and Counter party Risks: Given the nature of our business, contractual and counterparty risks create the biggest potential exposure to
Mindtree and hence is called out separately. These risks cover risks arising from poor contract definition with clients, business partners and
vendors as well as risks associated with contractual compliance with clients and business partners.
The Mindtree ERM approach is provided below:
1. Key Business Goals: The enterprise risk management approach is set in the context of Mindtrees key business goals as set by Executive
Management and the Board of Directors. Based on the goals identified and the level of acceptable risk, the ERM approach shall put in place
frameworks, processes and controls to facilitate achievement of these goals.
2. Risk Identification: Risk identification is the process of determining uncertainties that could potentially impact achievement of business
objectives. We use a combination of looking at the business plan, strategic initiatives and function specific goals to identify potential risks.
Internal audits and periodic assessment of various business processes also help in identification of risks impacting strategic, business unit,
operational, financial and other objectives.
3. Risk Assessment: Having understood the risks, the next step is to evaluate the risks identified and possible impact on Mindtree. Business
processes and the risk environment are evaluated to assess the significant risks which can impact the achievement of business goals.
Operational risks are assessed for effectiveness of the process, strength of the underlying controls and compliance to applicable laws and
regulations. Critical risks are evaluated based on probability of occurrence and business impact.
67
4. Risk Treatment: Treatment plans for the identified risks are drawn up based on the type of risks. Risk treatment can be classified into the
following buckets:
Mitigate - Reduce the risk by taking adequate mitigation plans and coming up with adequate control mechanisms.
Transfer - Transferring the risks arising out of the activity to a third party vendor/insurer/outsourcer/ specialists, who will accept the risk in a
cost effective manner.
Tolerate - If the risks undertaken by Mindtree are within the tolerable limits set by the company, risks may be accepted provided reasons for
acceptance are documented and the risk is accepted at the right level of management.
Terminate - The activity, project, proposal, etc. is too risky and hence not worth pursuing.
Exploit - Is a risk response technique for positive risks or opportunities. This strategy involves making sure that appropriate risks are taken
to ensure the opportunity is fully exploited and benefits realized by the organization.
Risk treatment may also introduce secondary risks which shall be assessed, treated, monitored and reviewed.
5. Monitoring and Reporting
Owners are identified for the mitigation plans and progress on the risk treatment plans is reviewed. Dashboards, heat maps and trend lines are
created which enable key stakeholders to monitor the status of identified critical risks.
Risks shall be reported externally/internally as appropriate. Based on reviews, decisions shall be made on how the risk management framework,
policy and plan can be improved. These decisions shall lead to continual improvements in the organizations risk management, and risk
management culture.
The year in review
In 2013-14, we further heightened our focus on ERM. The emphasis for the year has been on implementing the Mindtree ERM framework and
enhancing the governance around risk management. In addition, several initiatives have been taken to develop risk management awareness at
all levels of the organization.
In 2013-14, the Mindtree ERM framework has been given a formal shape by publishing an Enterprise Risk Management Charter which has been
presented to the Audit Committee of the Board. The Charter outlines the principles, key responsibilities and reporting requirements for risk
management within Mindtree. In addition, the ERM approach has also been documented.
These documents allow us to demonstrate the maturity of our risk management
processes by laying down a uniform risk rating methodology across different risk areas by
BoD
taking into account financial, reputational, people and market impact of risk events.
To ensure appropriate functioning of the ERM framework, we have prepared an elaborate
governance mechanism through a Responsibility-Accountability-Consulted-Informed
(RACI) matrix which ensures appropriate oversight of the risk management program and
also provides for granular risk ownership and treatment. An ERM Council consisting of the
CEO, COO, CFO, Head of Strategy and the Chief Risk Officer (CRO) has been created as the
owner of the Mindtree risk management program.
At an implementation level, 2013-14 has seen progress on multiple fronts. Significant
effort has been invested in creating an Enterprise Risk Register. Risks to Mindtree have
been categorized and rated. Existing risk controls and risk treatment measures
implemented/ proposed have also been identified. The risk register provides our
management a consolidated view of the risks being faced by Mindtree and potential
impact.

Additionally, the following planned initiatives were implemented during the year:

13-14 Business Plan to ensure we took full advantage of
opportunities identified as part of the strategic risk assessment and
also effectively treated potential risks identified.

A risk rating model to assess contractual risk exposure has also been put in place to evaluate risks in the contracts with our top customers.
This has helped us assess contractual risks proactively.
A credit risk mechanism has been developed to evaluate credit worthiness of potential customers before contracting business. The credit
evaluation system allows us to adjust credit and payment terms appropriately during contract negotiation and even avoid business where
the risks are greater than potential rewards.
Scenario planning and contingency planning exercises have been conducted for specific high risk events.
A comprehensive risk awareness program has been launched across the enterprise. The program uses different mechanisms to target
different audiences ranging from business/ enabling function leaders to Mindtree Minds who have joined us fresh from campus. Multiple
channels including blogs, executive email communications, comic strips, LCD displays, infographics and interactive sessions have been
used to communicate risk awareness to Mindtree Minds. These initiatives are complemented by an ERM portal which is hosted on our
intranet and can be accessed by all Mindtree Minds. Very positive feedback has been received to each of these initiatives across the
organization.

Risk advisories have been circulated to Business Teams and Enabling Functions to brief them on emerging risk events such as regulatory
changes and geo-political situations which have potential to impact business.
Major initiatives have been undertaken in the areas of Business Continuity Management (BCM) and process mapping. These initiatives have
significantly reduced the risks from these areas.
The Audit Committee of the Mindtree Board have been briefed on the ERM program and the major risks being faced by Mindtree.
Looking forward:
2014-15 promises to be an exciting year for business and risk management will correspondingly play an important role. Along with continuing
and enhancing existing risk management programs, the following initiatives have been planned:
1. Treatment plans for significantly high and high risks identified in the enterprise risk register shall continue to be monitored closely to
ensure risks are managed appropriately. These include the risks discussed in the Management Discussion and Analysis section. Risks in
other categories shall also be tracked to ensure any increases in potential impact are addressed before they escalate into issues.
2.
In 2013-14 we engaged a leading international risk consulting firm to evaluate the maturity of our ERM program and suggest a road map
benchmarked to industry best practices. This exercise was completed in February 2014 and the recommendations received shall be
implemented in the 2014-15 time frame.
3.
Develop a model where critical risks in the organization, to the extent possible, are quantified. This will help us have a sense of the value of
the risks we are carrying at any given point in time.
4.
While initial discussions have happened with business teams and risk templates have been developed, tighter integration of risk
management with business unit strategy has been planned.
5.
Roll out risk management across the organization to ensure different groups implement consistent risk management processes.
6.
Ensure significant risks are incorporated into audit plans and audited for assurance.

Standalone Financial Statements
Independent auditor's report to the members of Mindtree Limited

Report on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Mindtree Limited (the Company), which comprise the balance sheet as at 31 March
2014, the statement of profit and loss and the cash flow statement for the year then ended and a summary of significant accounting policies and
other explanatory information.
Management's Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation of these financial statements that give a true and fair view of the financial position, financial

the preparation and presentation of the financial statements that give a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to
fraud or error.
Auditor's Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the
Standards on Auditing issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India. Those Standards require that we comply with ethical requirements
and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures
selected depend on the auditors judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due
to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the Companys preparation and fair
presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of
expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entitys internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting
policies used and the reasonableness of the accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the
financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, the financial statements give the information
required by the Act in the manner so required and give a true and fair view in conformity with the accounting principles generally accepted in India:

Annexure to the Auditor's Report

The Annexure referred to in the Auditors Report to the members of Mindtree Limited (the Company) for the year ended 31 March 2014.
We report as follows:
1.
a) The Company has maintained proper records showing full particulars, including quantitative details and situation of fixed assets.
b) The Company has a regular programme of physical verification of its fixed assets by which fixed assets are verified in a phased manner over
a period of three years. In our opinion, the periodicity of physical verification is reasonable having regard to the size of the Company and the
nature of its assets. In accordance with this programme, certain fixed assets were verified during the year and no material discrepancies
were observed on such verification.
c) Fixed assets disposed off during the year were not substantial and therefore do not affect the going concern assumption.
2.
The Company is a service company, primarily rendering software development services. Accordingly, it does not hold any physical inventories.
Thus, paragraph 4(ii) of the Order is not applicable.
3.
The Company has neither granted nor taken any loans, secured or unsecured, to or from companies, firms or other parties covered in the
register maintained under section 301 of the Companies Act, 1956.
4.
In our opinion and according to the information and explanations given to us, there is an adequate internal control system commensurate with
the size of the Company and the nature of its business with regard to purchase of fixed assets and sale of services. The activities of the Company
do not involve purchase of inventory and the sale of goods. We have not observed any major weakness in the internal control system during the
course of the audit.
5.
In our opinion, and according to the information and explanations given to us, there are no contracts and arrangements the particulars of which
need to be entered into the register maintained under section 301 of the Companies Act, 1956.

any of the services rendered by the Company.

2.
Significant accounting policies
2.1 Basis of preparation of financial statements

The financial statements have been prepared and presented under the historical cost convention on the accrual basis of accounting except for
certain financial instruments which are measured at fair values and comply with the Accounting Standards referred to in sub-section (3C) of
section 211 of the Companies Act, 1956 (the Act) which as per a clarification issued by the Ministry of Corporate Affairs continue to apply
under section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 (which has superseded section 211(3C) of the Companies Act, 1956 w.e.f. 12 September, 2013),
other pronouncements of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI), the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013 (to the extent
notified and applicable) and the Companies Act, 1956, (to the extent applicable) and the guidelines issued by Securities and Exchange Board of
India (SEBI) to the extent applicable.
2.2 Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with the generally accepted accounting principles ('GAAP') in India requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of income and expenses of the period, assets and liabilities
and disclosures relating to contingent liabilities as of the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those
estimates. Any revision to accounting estimates is recognised prospectively in future periods.
2.3 Fixed assets and depreciation
2.3.1
Fixed assets are carried at cost of acquisition (including directly attributable costs such as freight, installation, etc.) or construction less
accumulated depreciation. Borrowing costs directly attributable to acquisition or construction of those fixed assets, which necessarily
take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use, are capitalised.
2.3.2
Acquired intangible assets are capitalised at the acquisition price. Internally generated intangible assets are recorded at cost that can
be measured reliably during the development phase and when it is probable that future economic benefits that are attributable to the
assets will flow to the Company.
2.3.3
Leases under which the Company assumes substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are classified as finance leases. Such
assets are capitalised at fair value of the asset or present value of the minimum lease payments at the inception of the lease,
whichever is lower. Lease payments under operating leases are recognised as an expense in the statement of profit and loss on a
straight-line basis over the lease term.
2.3.4
Advances paid towards the acquisition of fixed assets, outstanding at each balance sheet date are shown under capital advances.
The cost of the fixed asset not ready for its intended use on such date, is disclosed under capital work-in- progress.
2.3.5
Depreciation is provided on the straight-line method. The rates specified under schedule XIV of the Companies Act, 1956 are
considered as minimum rates. If the managements estimate of the useful life of a fixed asset at the time of the acquisition of the asset
or of the remaining useful life on a subsequent review is shorter than that envisaged in the aforesaid schedule, depreciation is
provided at a higher rate based on the managements estimate of the useful life/ remaining useful life. Pursuant to this policy, the
management has estimated the useful life as under:
Asset classification
Useful life
Buildings
25-30 years
Computer systems
1-3 years
Computer software
2 years
Test equipment
3 years
Furniture and fixtures
5 years
Electrical installations
3-5 years
Office equipment
4-5 years
Motor vehicles
4-5 years
Plant and machinery
4 years
Intellectual property
5 years
2.3.6
Fixed assets individually costing Rupees five thousand or less are fully depreciated in the year of purchase/ installation.
Depreciation on additions and disposals during the year is provided on a pro-rata basis.
2.3.7
The cost of leasehold land is amortised over the period of the lease. Leasehold improvements and assets acquired on finance lease are
amortised over the lease term or useful life, whichever is lower.
2.4 Investments
76
2.4.1
Non-current investments are carried at cost less any other-than-temporary diminution in value, determined on the specific
identification basis.
2.4.2
Current investments are carried at the lower of cost and fair value. The comparison of cost and fair value is carried out separately
in respect of each investment.
2.4.3
Profit or loss on sale of investments is determined as the difference between the sale price and carrying value of investment,
determined individually for each investment.
2.5 Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise of cash-in-hand and balance in bank in current accounts and deposit accounts.
2.6 Cash flow statement
Cash flows are reported using the indirect method, whereby net profit before tax is adjusted for the effects of transactions of a non-cash nature
and any deferrals or accruals of past or future cash receipts or payments. The cash flows from regular revenue generating, investing and
financing activities of the Company are segregated.
2.7 Employee benefits
2.7.1
Gratuity is a defined benefit scheme and is accrued based on actuarial valuations at the balance sheet date, carried out by an
independent actuary. The Company has an employees gratuity fund managed by ICICI Prudential Life Insurance Company, SBI Life
Insurance Company and Life Insurance Corporation of India. Actuarial gains and losses are charged to the statement of profit and loss.
2.7.2
Compensated absences are a long-term employee benefit and is accrued based on actuarial valuations at the balance sheet date,
carried out by an independent actuary. The Company accrues for the expected cost of short-term compensated absences in the period
in which the employee renders services.
2.7.3
Contributions payable to the recognised provident fund, which is a defined contribution scheme, are charged to the statement of
profit and loss.
2.8 Revenue recognition

2.8.1
The Company derives its revenues primarily from software services. Revenue from software development on time-and-material
basis is recognised as the related services are rendered. Revenue from fixed price contracts is recognised using the proportionate
completion method, which is determined by relating the actual project cost of work performed to date to the estimated total project
cost for each contract. Unbilled revenue represents cost and earnings in excess of billings while unearned revenue represents the
billing in excess of cost and earnings. Provision for estimated losses, if any, on incomplete contracts are recorded in the period in which
such losses become probable based on the current contract estimates.
2.8.2
Provision for discounts is recognised on an accrual basis in accordance with contractual terms of agreements with customers.
Revenues are stated net of discount.
Maintenance revenue is recognised ratably over the period of the maintenance contract.
2.8.3
Dividend income is recognised when the right to receive payment is established.
2.8.4
Interest income is recognised using the time proportion method, based on the transactional interest rates.
2.9 Foreign exchange transactions

2.9.1
The Company is exposed to foreign currency transactions including foreign currency revenues, receivables and borrowings. With
a view to minimize the volatility arising from fluctuations in currency rates, the Company enters into foreign exchange forward
contracts and other derivative instruments.
2.9.2
Foreign exchange transactions are recorded using the exchange rates prevailing on the dates of the respective transactions.
Exchange differences arising on foreign exchange transactions settled during the year are recognised in the statement of profit and
loss for the year.
2.9.3
Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies as at the balance sheet date are translated at the closing
exchange rates on that date; the resultant exchange differences are recognised in the statement of profit and loss. Non-monetary
items which are carried in terms of historical cost denominated in a foreign currency are reported using the exchange rate at the date
of the transaction.
2.9.4
In respect of integral operations, monetary assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate prevailing at the date of the
balance sheet. Non-monetary items are translated at the historical rate. The items in the statement of profit and loss are translated at
the rates prevailing on the dates of the respective transactions. The differences arising out of the translation are recognised in the
statement of profit and loss.
2.9.5
Forward exchange contracts and other similar instruments that are not in respect of forecasted transactions are accounted for using
the guidance in Accounting Standard (AS) 11, The effects of changes in foreign exchange rates. For such forward exchange contracts
and other similar instruments covered by AS 11, based on the nature and purpose of the contract, either the contracts are recorded
based on the forward rate/ fair value at the reporting date, or based on the spot exchange rate on the reporting date. For contracts
recorded at the spot exchange rates, the premium or discount at the inception is amortized as income or expense over the life of the
contract.
2.9.6
For forward exchange contracts and other derivatives that are not covered by AS 11 and that relate to a firm commitment or highly
probable forecasted transactions, the Company has adopted Accounting Standard ('AS') 30, Financial Instruments: Recognition and
Measurement to the extent that the adoption did not conflict with existing accounting standards and other authoritative
pronouncements of the Company Law and other regulatory requirements. In accordance with AS 30, such derivative financial
instruments, which qualify for cash flow hedge accounting and where the Company has met all the conditions of cash flow hedge
accounting, are fair valued at balance sheet date and the resultant exchange loss/ gain is debited/ credited to the hedge reserve until
the transaction is completed. Other derivative instruments are recorded at fair value at the reporting date and the resultant exchange
loss/ gain is debited/ credited to statement of profit and loss.
2.10 Warranties
Warranty costs (i.e. post contract support services) are estimated by the management on the basis of technical evaluation and past experience.
Provision is made for estimated liability in respect of warranty costs in the period of recognition of revenue.
2.11 Provision and contingent liabilities
The Company creates a provision when there is a present obligation as a result of a past event that probably requires an outflow of resources
and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. A disclosure for a contingent liability is made when there is a possible
77
obligation or a present obligation that may, but probably will not, require an outflow of resources. When there is a possible obligation or a
present obligation in respect of which the likelihood of outflow of resources is remote, no provision or disclosure is made.
Provisions for onerous contracts, i.e. contracts where the expected unavoidable costs of meeting the obligations under the contract exceed the
economic benefits expected to be received under it are recognised when it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic
benefits will be required to settle a present obligation as a result of an obligating event, based on a reliable estimate of such obligation.
2.12 Taxation
The current income tax charge is determined in accordance with the relevant tax regulations applicable to the Company. Deferred tax charge or
credit are recognised for the future tax consequences attributable to timing difference that result between the profit offered for income taxes
and the profit as per the financial statements. Deferred tax in respect of timing difference which originate during the tax holiday period but
reverse after the tax holiday period is recognised in the year in which the timing difference originate. For this purpose the timing differences
which originate first are considered to reverse first. The deferred tax charge or credit and the corresponding deferred tax liabilities or assets are
recognised using the tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date. Deferred tax assets are recognised
only to the extent there is reasonable certainty that the assets can be realised in future; however, when there is a brought forward loss or
unabsorbed depreciation under taxation laws, deferred tax assets are recognised only if there is virtual certainty of realisation of such assets.
Deferred tax assets are reviewed as at each balance sheet date and written down or written up to reflect the amount that is reasonably/
virtually certain to be realised.
Minimum Alternate Tax (MAT) paid in accordance with the tax laws, which gives rise to future economic benefits in the form of tax credit against
future income tax liability, is recognised as an asset in the balance sheet if there is a convincing evidence that the Company will pay normal tax
after the tax holiday period and the resultant assets can be measured reliably. MAT credit entitlement can be carried forward and utilized for a
period of ten years from the period in which such credit is availed.
The Company offsets, on a year on year basis, the current tax assets and liabilities, where it has a legally enforceable right and where it intends
to settle such assets and liabilities on a net basis.
2.13 Earnings per share
In determining earnings per share, the Company considers the net profit after tax and includes the post-tax effect of any extra-ordinary item.
The number of equity shares used in computing basic earnings per share is the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during
the year. The number of equity shares used in computing diluted earnings per share comprises weighted average number of equity shares
considered for deriving basic earnings per share and also weighted average number of equity shares which could have been issued on the
conversion of all dilutive potential equity shares.
2.14 Impairment of assets
The Company assesses at each balance sheet date whether there is any indication that an asset (including goodwill) may be impaired. If any
such indication exists, the Company estimates the recoverable amount of the asset. For an asset that does not generate largely independent
cash inflows, the recoverable amount is determined for the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. If such recoverable amount of the
asset or the recoverable amount of the cash generating unit to which the asset belongs is less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount is
reduced to its recoverable amount. The reduction is treated as an impairment loss and is recognised in the statement of profit and loss. If at the
balance sheet date there is an indication that if a previously assessed impairment loss no longer exists, the recoverable amount is reassessed
and the asset is reflected at the recoverable amount. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the carrying amount of asset does
not exceed the net book value that would have been determined, if no impairment loss had been recognised. In respect of goodwill,
impairment loss will be reversed only when it is caused by specific external events and their effects have been reversed by subsequent
external events.
2.15 Employee Stock based Compensation
The Company measures the compensation cost relating to employee stock options, restricted shares and stock appreciation rights using the
intrinsic value method. The compensation cost is amortised over the vesting/ service period.
2.16Government grants
Grants from the government are recognised when there is reasonable assurance that:
(I) the Company will comply with the conditions attached to them; and
(ii) the grant will be received.
Government grants related to revenue are recognised on a systematic basis in the statement of profit and loss over the periods
necessary to match them with the related costs which they are intended to compensate. Such grants are deducted in reporting the related
expense. Where the Company receives non-monetary grants, the asset is accounted for on the basis of its acquisition cost. In case a nonmonetary asset is given free of cost it is recognised at a nominal value.

3.8 Contingent liabilities and commitments

a) Estimated amount of contracts remaining to be executed on capital account and not provided for as at March 31, 2014 is ` 854 (March 31,
2013: ` 470).
b) As of the balance sheet date, the Companys net foreign currency exposure that is not hedged by a derivative instrument or otherwise is
` 5,683 (March 31, 2013: ` 4,018).
c) The Company has received an income tax assessment for the financial year 2008-09 wherein demand of ` 24 has been raised against the
Company on account of certain disallowances, adjustments made by the income tax department. A significant portion of this amount arises
from the manner of adjustment of brought forward losses in arriving at the taxable profits of the Company and disallowance of portion of
profit earned outside India from the STP and SEZ units.
Management believes that the position taken by it on the matter is tenable and hence, no adjustment has been made to the financial
statements. The Company has filed an appeal against the demands received.
The Company has received a favourable order from the Commissioner of Income tax (Appeals) for majority of grounds and considering the
order passed, there will not be any demand on the Company. On the other grounds which are not favourable, the Company has filed an
appeal before the Income Tax Appellate Tribunal (ITAT).
d) The Company has received income tax assessments for financial years 2006-07 and 2007-08 for the erstwhile subsidiary Mindtree
Technologies Private Limited (MTPL) with demands amounting to ` 11 and ` 10 on account of certain disallowances/ adjustments made by
income tax department. Management believes that the position taken by it on the matter is tenable and hence, no adjustment has been
made to the financial statements. The Company has filed an appeal against the demand received. The Company has not deposited the
amount of demand with the department.
e) The Company has received income tax assessments under Section 143(3) of the Income-tax Act 1961 pertaining to erstwhile subsidiary
Aztecsoft Limited for the financial years 2001-02, 2002-03, 2003-04, 2004-05, 2005-06, 2006-07, 2007-08 and 2008-09 wherein
demand of ` 91, ` 49, ` 61, ` 28, ` 58, ` 119, ` 214 and ` 63 respectively has been raised against the Company. These demands have arisen
mainly on account of transfer pricing adjustments made in the order. The Company has not accepted these orders and has been advised by
its legal counsel/ advisors to prefer appeals before appellate authorities and accordingly the Company has filed appeals before the
Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals) and ITAT. The Company has deposited ` 15 with the department against these demands. The
department has adjusted pending refunds amounting to ` 363 against these demands.
The Company received a favourable order from the Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals) for the year 2001-02 where in the Commissioner
of Income Tax (Appeals) accepted the Companys contentions and quashed the demand raised. The Income tax department appealed
against the above mentioned order with ITAT. ITAT, in an earlier year passed an order setting aside both the orders of the Commissioner of
Income Tax (Appeals) as well as the Assessing Officer and remanded the matter back to the Assessing Officer for re-assessment. The
Company preferred an appeal with the Honble High Court of Karnataka against the order of the ITAT. The Honble High Court of Karnataka
has dismissed the appeal filed against the order of ITAT and upheld the order passed by the ITAT and accordingly the case is pending before
Assessing Officer for re-assessment
The Company has appealed against the demands received for financial years 2002-03, 2003-04, 2004-05, 2005-06, 2006-07, 2007-08
and 2008-09. Based on favourable order received by the Company for the financial year 2001-02 and an evaluation of the facts and
circumstances, no provision has been made against the above orders in the financial statements.
f) The Company received an assessment order for financial year 2006-07 for the erstwhile subsidiary Mindtree Wireless Private Limited
from the Assistant Commissioner of Income-tax (ACIT) with a demand amounting to ` 39 on account of certain other disallowances/ transfer
pricing adjustments made by income tax department. Management believes that the position taken by it on the matter is tenable and hence,
no adjustment has been made to the financial statements. The Company has filed an appeal with Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals)
against the demand received.
The Company has received the order from the Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals) wherein the Commissioner of Income Tax
(Appeals) accepted the grounds in part and in respect of unfavorable grounds, the Company has filed an appeal before Income Tax
Appellate Tribunal. The final order giving effect by the Assessing Officer is completed and the demand is reduced to ` 33. The
Company has deposited ` 5 with the department against this demand.
91
g) The Company has received a draft assessment order for financial year 2009-10 from the Deputy Commissioner of Income Tax with a demand
amounting to ` 60 due to non-adjustment of brought forward losses and transfer pricing adjustments. Management believes that the
position taken by it on the matter is tenable and hence, no adjustment has been made to the financial statements. The Company will file an
appeal with Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals) once the final order is received.

3.14Segmental reporting
Effective April 1, 2013, the Company has restructured its organisational and management structure and its internal financial reporting structure
to be better aligned to market needs. Pursuant to such re-organization, the Company has identified Manufacturing, BFSI, Hitech, Travel and
Transport and Others as its reportable business segments. Accordingly, as required by the accounting standards, comparatives have
been restated and presented in line with the current segments.
Income and direct expenses in relation to segments are categorised based on items that are individually identifiable to that segment, while the
remainder of costs are apportioned on an appropriate basis. Certain expenses are not specifically allocable to individual segments as the
underlying services are used interchangeably. The Company therefore believes that it is not practical to provide segment disclosures relating to
such expenses and accordingly such expenses are separately disclosed as unallocable and directly charged against total income.
The assets of the Company are used interchangeably between segments, and the management believes that it is currently not practical to
provide segment disclosures relating to total assets and liabilities since a meaningful segregation is not possible.

Consolidated Financial Statements
Independent auditor's report to the Board of Directors of Mindtree Limited

We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Mindtree Limited (Mindtree or the Company) and its subsidiary
(collectively called the Mindtree Group), which comprise the consolidated balance sheet as at 31 March 2014, the consolidated statement of profit
and loss and consolidated cash flows statement for the year then ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory
information.
Managements Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation of these consolidated financial statements that give a true and fair view of the consolidated
financial position, consolidated financial performance and consolidated cash flows of the Mindtree Group in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in India. This responsibility includes the design, implementation and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation
and presentation of the consolidated financial statements that give a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to
fraud or error.
Auditor's Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance
with the Standards on Auditing issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India. Those Standards require that we comply with ethical
requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free from
material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. The
procedures selected depend on the auditors judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated
financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the
Companys preparation and presentation of the consolidated financial statements that give a true and fair view in order to design audit procedures
that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entitys internal control. An
audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of the accounting estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, the consolidated financial statements 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 state of affairs of the Mindtree Group as at 31 March 2014;
(b) in the case of the consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss account, of the profit for the year ended on that date; and
(c) in the case of the consolidated Cash Flow Statement, of the cash flows for the year ended on that date.

2.
2.1 Basis of preparation of consolidated financial statements

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared and presented under the historical cost convention on the accrual basis of
accounting except for certain financial instruments which are measured at fair values and comply with the Accounting Standards referred to in
sub-section (3C) of section 211 of the Companies Act, 1956 (the Act) which as per a clarification issued by the Ministry of Corporate Affairs
continue to apply under section 133 of the Companies Act 2013 (which has superseded section 211(3C) of the Companies Act 1956 w.e.f.
12 September 2013), other pronouncements of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI) and the guidelines issued by
Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI).
2.2 Principles of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of Mindtree and its subsidiary as set out below.
Name of the subsidiaries
Country of incorporation
Mindtree Software (Shenzhen) Co., Ltd.*

Mindtree Software (Shanghai) Co., Ltd.
Republic of China
Republic of China
Proportion of interest
100%
100%
* Dissolved with effect from September 06, 2012.

The financial statements of Mindtree and its wholly owned and controlled subsidiary has been combined on a line-by-line basis by adding
together the book values of all items of assets, liabilities, incomes and expenses after eliminating all inter-company balances/ transactions and
the resultant unrealized gain/loss from the date the parent company acquired control of those subsidiaries.
The consolidated financial statements are prepared using uniform accounting policies for similar transactions and other events in similar
circumstances.
2.3 Use of estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with the generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) in India
requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of income and expenses of the period, assets and
liabilities and disclosures relating to contingent liabilities as of the date of the consolidated financial statements. Actual results could differ
from those estimates. Any revision to accounting estimates is recognised prospectively in future periods.
2.4 Fixed assets and depreciation
2.4.1
Fixed assets are carried at cost of acquisition (including directly attributable costs such as freight, installation, etc.) or construction less
accumulated depreciation. Borrowing costs directly attributable to acquisition or construction of those fixed assets, which necessarily
take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use, are capitalised.
2.4.2
Acquired intangible assets are capitalised at the acquisition price. Internally generated intangible assets are recorded at cost that can
be measured reliably during the development phase and when it is probable that future economic benefits that are attributable to the
assets will flow to the Group.
2.4.3
Leases under which the Group assumes substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are classified as finance leases. Such
assets are capitalised at fair value of the asset or present value of the minimum lease payments at the inception of the lease, whichever
is lower. Lease payments under operating leases are recognised as an expense in the statement of profit and loss on a straight-line
basis over the lease term.
2.4.4
Advances paid towards the acquisition of fixed assets, outstanding at each balance sheet date are shown under capital advances.
The cost of the fixed asset not ready for its intended use on such date, is disclosed under capital work-in- progress.
2.4.5
Depreciation is provided on the straight-line method. The rates specified under schedule XIV of the Companies Act, 1956 are
considered as minimum rates. If the managements estimate of the useful life of a fixed asset at the time of the acquisition of the asset
or of the remaining useful life on a subsequent review is shorter than that envisaged in the aforesaid schedule, depreciation is
provided at a higher rate based on the managements estimate of the useful life/remaining useful life. Pursuant to this policy, the
management has estimated the useful life as under:
101
Asset classification
Buildings
Computer systems
Computer software
Test equipment
Office equipment
Motor vehicles
Plant and machinery
Useful life
25-30 years
1-3 years
2 years
3 years
5 years
3-5 years
4-5 years
4-5 years
4 years
5 years
2.4.6
Fixed assets individually costing Rupees five thousand or less are fully depreciated in the year of purchase/ installation.
Depreciation on additions and disposals during the year is provided on a pro-rata basis.
2.4.7
The cost of leasehold land is amortised over the period of the lease. Leasehold improvements and assets acquired on finance lease are
amortised over the lease term or useful life, whichever is lower.
2.5 Investments
2.5.1
Non-current investments are carried at cost less any other-than-temporary diminution in value, determined on the specific
identification basis.
2.5.2
Current investments are carried at the lower of cost and fair value. The comparison of cost and fair value is carried out separately
in respect of each investment.
2.5.3
Profit or loss on sale of investments is determined as the difference between the sale price and carrying value of investment,
determined individually for each investment.
2.6 Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents in the consolidated cash flow statement comprises cash-in-hand and balance in bank in current accounts and
deposit accounts.
2.7 Consolidated cash flow statement
Cash flows are reported using the indirect method, whereby consolidated net profit before tax is adjusted for the effects of transactions of a
non-cash nature and any deferrals or accruals of past or future cash receipts or payments. The cash flows from regular revenue generating,
investing and financing activities of the Group are segregated.
2.8 Employee benefits
2.8.1
Gratuity is a defined benefit scheme and is accrued based on actuarial valuations at the balance sheet date, carried out by an
independent actuary. The Group has an employees gratuity fund managed by ICICI Prudential Life Insurance Company, SBI Life
Insurance Company and Life Insurance Corporation of India. Actuarial gains and losses are charged to the statement of profit and loss.
2.8.2
Compensated absences are a long-term employee benefit and is accrued based on actuarial valuations at the balance sheet date,
carried out by an independent actuary. The Group accrues for the expected cost of short-term compensated absences in the period in
which the employee renders services.
2.8.3
Contributions payable to the recognised provident fund, which is a defined contribution scheme, are charged to the statement of
profit and loss.
2.9 Revenue recognition

2.9.1
The Group derives its revenues primarily from software services. Revenue from software development on time-and-material basis is
recognised as the related services are rendered. Revenue from fixed price contracts is recognised using the proportionate completion
method, which is determined by relating the actual project cost of work performed to date to the estimated total project cost for each
contract. Unbilled revenue represents cost and earnings in excess of billings while unearned revenue represents the billing in excess
of cost and earnings. Provision for estimated losses, if any, on incomplete contracts are recorded in the period in which such losses
become probable based on the current contract estimates.
2.9.2
Provision for discounts is recognised on an accrual basis in accordance with contractual terms of agreements with customers.
Revenues are stated net of discount.
2.9.3
Dividend income is recognised when the right to receive payment is established.
2.9.4
Interest income is recognised using the time proportion method, based on the transactional interest rates.
Maintenance revenue is recognised ratably over the period of the maintenance contract.
2.10 Foreign exchange transactions

2.10.1 The Group is exposed to foreign currency transactions including foreign currency revenues, receivables and borrowings. With a view
to minimize the volatility arising from fluctuations in currency rates, the Group enters into foreign exchange forward contracts
and other derivative instruments.
2.10.2 Foreign exchange transactions are recorded using the exchange rates prevailing on the dates of the respective transactions.
Exchange differences arising on foreign exchange transactions settled during the year are recognised in the statement of profit and
loss for the year.
102
2.10.3 Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies as at the balance sheet date are translated at the closing
exchange rates on that date; the resultant exchange differences are recognised in the statement of profit and loss. Non-monetary
items which are carried in terms of historical cost denominated in a foreign currency are reported using the exchange rate at the date
of the transaction.
2.10.4 In respect of integral operations, monetary assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate prevailing at the date of the
balance sheet. Non-monetary items are translated at the historical rate. The items in the statement of profit and loss are translated at
the rates prevailing on the dates of the respective transactions. The differences arising out of the translation are recognised in the
statement of profit and loss.
2.10.5 Forward exchange contracts and other similar instruments that are not in respect of forecasted transactions are accounted for using
the guidance in Accounting Standard (AS) 11, The effects of changes in foreign exchange rates. For such forward exchange contracts
and other similar instruments covered by AS 11, based on the nature and purpose of the contract, either the contracts are recorded
based on the forward rate/fair value at the reporting date, or based on the spot exchange rate on the reporting date. For contracts
recorded at the spot exchange rates, the premium or discount at the inception is amortised as income or expense over the life of the
contract.
2.10.6 For forward exchange contracts and other derivatives that are not covered by AS 11 and that relate to a firm commitment or highly
probable forecasted transactions, the Group has adopted Accounting Standard ('AS') 30, Financial Instruments: Recognition and
Measurement to the extent that the adoption did not conflict with existing accounting standards and other authoritative
pronouncements of the Company Law and other regulatory requirements. In accordance with AS 30, such derivative financial
instruments, which qualify for cash flow hedge accounting and where Group has met all the conditions of cash flow hedge accounting,
are fair valued at balance sheet date and the resultant exchange loss/(gain) is debited/credited to the hedge reserve until the
transaction is completed. Other derivative instruments are recorded at fair value at the reporting date and the resultant exchange loss/
(gain) has been debited/ credited to statement of profit and loss.
2.11Warranties
Warranty costs (i.e. post contract support services) are estimated by the management on the basis of technical evaluation and past experience.
Provision is made for estimated liability in respect of warranty costs in the year of recognition of revenue.
2.12 Provision and contingent liabilities
The Group creates a provision when there is a present obligation as a result of a past event that probably requires an outflow of resources and a
reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. A disclosure for a contingent liability is made when there is a possible obligation
or a present obligation that may, but probably will not, require an outflow of resources. When there is a possible obligation or a present
obligation in respect of which the likelihood of outflow of resources is remote, no provision or disclosure is made.
Provisions for onerous contracts, i.e. contracts where the expected unavoidable costs of meeting the obligations under the contract exceed the
economic benefits expected to be received under it are recognised when it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic
benefits will be required to settle a present obligation as a result of an obligating event, based on a reliable estimate of such obligation.
2.13 Taxation
The current income tax charge is determined in accordance with the relevant tax regulations applicable to respective entities within the Group.
Deferred tax charge or credit are recognised for the future tax consequences attributable to timing difference that result between the profit
offered for income taxes and the profit as per the financial statements. Deferred tax in respect of timing difference which originate during the
tax holiday period but reverse after the tax holiday period is recognised in the period in which the timing difference originate. For this purpose
the timing differences which originate first are considered to reverse first. The deferred tax charge or credit and the corresponding
deferred tax liabilities or assets are recognised using the tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date.
Deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent there is reasonable certainty that the assets can be realised in future; however, when
there is a brought forward loss or unabsorbed depreciation under taxation laws, deferred tax assets are recognised only if there is virtual
certainty of realisation of such assets. Deferred tax assets are reviewed as at each balance sheet date and written down or written up to reflect
the amount that is reasonably/ virtually certain to be realised.
Minimum alternate tax (MAT) paid in accordance with the tax laws, which gives rise to future economic benefits in the form of tax credit against
future income tax liability, is recognised as an asset in the balance sheet if there is a convincing evidence that the Group will pay normal tax
after the tax holiday period and the resultant assets can be measured reliably. MAT credit entitlement can be carried forward and utilized for a
period of ten years from the period in which such credit is availed.
The entities within the Group offset, on a year-on-year basis, the current tax assets and liabilities, where it has a legally enforceable right and
where it intends to settle such assets and liabilities on a net basis.
In determining earnings per share, the Group considers the consolidated net profit after tax and includes the post-tax effect of any extraordinary item. The number of equity shares used in computing basic earnings per share is the weighted average number of equity shares
outstanding during the year. The number of equity shares used in computing diluted earnings per share comprises weighted average
number of equity shares considered for deriving basic earnings per share and also weighted average number of equity shares which could
have been issued on the conversion of all dilutive potential equity shares.
2.15 Impairment of assets
The Group assesses at each balance sheet date whether there is any indication that an asset (including goodwill) may be impaired. If any such
indication exists, the Group estimates the recoverable amount of the asset. For an asset that does not generate largely independent cash
inflows, the recoverable amount is determined for the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. If such recoverable amount of the asset
or the recoverable amount of the cash generating unit to which the asset belongs is less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount is
103
reduced to its recoverable amount. The reduction is treated as an impairment loss and is recognised in the statement of profit and loss. If at the
balance sheet date there is an indication that if a previously assessed impairment loss no longer exists, the recoverable amount is reassessed
and the asset is reflected at the recoverable amount. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the carrying amount of asset does
not exceed the net book value that would have been determined; if no impairment loss had been recognised. In respect of goodwill,
impairment loss will be reversed only when it is caused by specific external events and their effects have been reversed by subsequent
external events.
2.16 Employee stock based compensation
The Group measures the compensation cost relating to employee stock options, restricted shares and stock appreciation rights using the
intrinsic value method. The compensation cost is amortised over the vesting/ service period.
2.17 Goodwill
Goodwill arising on consolidation/ acquisition of assets is not amortised. It is tested for impairment on a periodic basis and written off, if found
impaired.
2.18Government grants
(i) the Group will comply with the conditions attached to them; and
Government grants related to revenue are recognised on a systematic basis in the statement of profit and loss over the periods
necessary to match them with the related costs which they are intended to compensate. Such grants are deducted in reporting the related
expense. Where the Group receives non-monetary grants, the asset is accounted for on the basis of its acquisition cost. In case a non-monetary
asset is given free of cost it is recognised at a nominal value.

c) The Group has received an income tax assessment for the financial year 2008-09 wherein demand of ` 24 has been raised against the
Group on account of certain disallowances, adjustments made by the income tax department. A significant portion of this amount arises
from the manner of adjustment of brought forward losses in arriving at the taxable profits of the Group and disallowance of portion of
statements. The Group has filed an appeal against the demands received.
The Group has received a favourable order from the Commissioner of Income tax (Appeals) for majority of grounds and considering the
order passed, there will not be any demand on the Group. On the other grounds which are not favourable, the Group has filed an appeal
before the Income Tax Appellate Tribunal (ITAT).
d) The Group has received income tax assessments for financial years 2006-07 and 2007-08 for the erstwhile subsidiary Mindtree
made to the financial statements. The Group has filed an appeal against the demand received. The Group has not deposited the amount of
demand with the department.

demand of ` 91,` 49, ` 61, ` 28, ` 58, ` 119, ` 214 and ` 63 respectively has been raised against the Group. These demands have arisen
mainly on account of transfer pricing adjustments made in the order. The Group has not accepted these orders and has been advised
by its legal counsel/ advisors to prefer appeals before appellate authorities and accordingly the Group has filed appeals before the
Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals) and ITAT. The Group has deposited ` 15 with the department against these demands. The
The Group received a favourable order from the Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals) for the year 2001-02 where in the Commissioner
of Income Tax (Appeals) accepted the Groups contentions and quashed the demand raised. The Income tax department appealed against
the above mentioned order with ITAT. ITAT, in an earlier year passed an order setting aside both the orders of the Commissioner of Income
Tax (Appeals) as well as the Assessing Officer and remanded the matter back to the Assessing Officer for re-assessment. The Group
preferred an appeal with the Honble High Court of Karnataka against the order of the ITAT. The Honble High Court of Karnataka has
dismissed the appeal filed against the order of ITAT and upheld the order passed by the ITAT and accordingly the case is pending before
Assessing Officer for re-assessment
The Group has appealed against the demands received for financial years 2002-03, 2003-04, 2004-05, 2005-06, 2006-07, 2007-08 and
2008-09. Based on favourable order received by the Group for the financial year 2001-02 and an evaluation of the facts and
circumstances, no provision has been made against the above orders in the financial statements.
f) The Group received an assessment order for financial year 2006-07 for the erstwhile subsidiary Mindtree Wireless Private Limited from
the Assistant Commissioner of Income-tax (ACIT) with a demand amounting to ` 39 on account of certain other disallowances/ transfer
pricing adjustments made by income tax department. Management believes that the position taken by it on the matter is tenable and
hence, no adjustment has been made to the financial statements. The Group has filed an appeal with Commissioner of Income Tax
(Appeals) against the demand received.
The Group has received the order from the Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals) wherein the Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals)
accepted the grounds in part and in respect of unfavorable grounds, the Group has filed an appeal before Income Tax Appellate Tribunal.
The final order giving effect by the Assessing Officer is completed and the demand is reduced to ` 33. The Group has deposited ` 5
with the department against this demand.
g) The Group has received a draft assessment order for financial year 2009-10 from the Deputy Commissioner of Income Tax with a demand
amounting to ` 60 due to non- adjustment of brought forward losses and transfer pricing adjustments. Management believes that the
position taken by it on the matter is tenable and hence, no adjustment has been made to the financial statements. The Group will file an
appeal with Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals) once the final order is received.

Segmental reporting
Effective April 1, 2013, the Group has restructured its organisational and management structure and its internal financial reporting structure
to be better aligned to market needs. Pursuant to such re-organization, the Group has identified Manufacturing, BFSI, Hitech, Travel and
Transportation and Others as its reportable business segments. Accordingly, as required by the accounting standards, comparatives have
been restated and presented in line with the current segments.
Income and direct expenses in relation to segments are categorised based on items that are individually identifiable to that segment, while
the remainder of costs are apportioned on an appropriate basis. Certain expenses are not specifically allocable to individual segments
as the underlying services are used interchangeably. The Group therefore believes that it is not practical to provide segment disclosures
relating to such expenses and accordingly such expenses are separately disclosed as unallocable and directly charged against total
income.
The assets of the Group are used interchangeably between segments and the management believes that it is currently not practical to provide
segment disclosures relating to total assets and liabilities since a meaningful segregation is not possible.

total expected contract revenue and costs. This method is followed when reasonably dependable estimates of the revenues and costs
applicable to various elements of the contract can be made. Key factors that are reviewed in estimating the future costs to
complete include estimates of future labor costs and productivity efficiencies. Because the financial reporting of these contracts
depends on estimates that are assessed continually during the term of these contracts, recognized revenue and profit are subject to
revisions as the contract progresses to completion. When estimates indicate that a loss will be incurred, the loss is provided for in
the period in which the loss becomes probable.
ii) Income taxes: The Companys two major tax jurisdictions are India and the U.S., though the Company also files tax returns in
other foreign jurisdictions. Significant judgments are involved in determining the provision for income taxes, including the
amount expected to be paid or recovered in connection with uncertain tax positions. Also refer to Note 15.
iii) Other estimates: The preparation of financial statements involves estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of
assets, liabilities, disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and
expenses for the reporting period. Specifically, the Company estimates the uncollectability of accounts receivable by analyzing
historical payment patterns, customer concentrations, customer credit-worthiness and current economic trends. If the financial
condition of a customer deteriorates, additional allowances may be required. The stock compensation expense is determined based
on the Companys estimate of equity instruments that will eventually vest.

(i)
Basis of consolidation
Subsidiaries
The unaudited consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the Parent Company and entities
controlled by the Parent Company (its subsidiaries and controlled trusts).
125
As a result of IFRS 10 (2011), the Group has changed its accounting policy for determining whether it has control over and
consequently whether it consolidates its investees. IFRS 10 (2011) introduces a new control model that is applicable to all
investees, by focusing on whether the Group has power over an investee, exposure or rights to variable returns from its involvement
with the investee and ability to use its power to affect those returns. In particular, IFRS 10 (2011) requires the Group
consolidate investees that it controls on the basis of de facto circumstances. In accordance with the transitional provisions of IFRS 10
(2011), the Group reassessed the control conclusion for its investees at April 1, 2013. Such re-assesment did not have any impact on the
unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Group.
Special purpose entities
The Company has established certain special purpose entities (SPEs) for business purposes. These SPE are consolidated based
on an evaluation of the substance of its relationship with the Company and the SPEs risks and rewards. SPEs controlled by the Company
were established under terms that impose strict limitations on the decision- making powers of the SPEs management and that result
in the Company receiving the majority of the benefits related to the SPEs operations and net assets, being exposed to risks incident to
the SPEs activities and retaining the majority of the residual or ownership risks related to the SPE or its assets.
(ii)
Functional and presentation currency

Items included in the unaudited consolidated financial statements of each of the Companys subsidiaries are measured using
the currency of the primary economic environment in which these entities operate (i.e. the functional currency). These
unaudited consolidated financial statements are presented in Indian Rupee, the national currency of India, which is the functional
currency of Mindtree Limited and its subsidiaries.
(iii)
Foreign currency transactions and balances

Transactions in foreign currency are translated into the respective functional currencies using the exchange rates prevailing at the
dates of the transactions. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the
translation at the exchange rates prevailing at reporting date of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign
currencies are recognized in the statement of income and reported within foreign exchange gains/ (losses).
Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign currency and measured at historical cost are translated at the exchange
rate prevalent at the date of transaction.
(iv)
Financial instruments
Financial instruments of the Company are classified in the following categories : non- derivative financial instruments comprising of
loans and receivables, available-for-sale financial assets and trade and other liabilities; derivative financial instruments under the
category of financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss.
The classification of financial instruments depends on the purpose for which those were acquired. Management determines the
classification of its financial instruments at initial recognition.
a) Non-derivative financial instruments

(i) Loans and receivables
Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market.
They are presented as current assets, except for those maturing later than 12 months after the reporting date which are presented as noncurrent assets. Loans and receivables are measured initially at fair value plus transaction costs and subsequently carried at
amortized cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment loss.
Loans and receivables are represented by trade receivables, unbilled revenue, cash and cash equivalents, employee and other
advances and eligible current and non-current assets.
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and in banks and demand deposits with banks which can be withdrawn at any time
For the purposes of the cash flow statement, cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, in banks and demand deposits with banks,
net of outstanding bank overdrafts that are repayable on demand and are considered part of the Companys cash management system.
(ii) Available-for-sale financial assets
Available-for-sale financial assets are non-derivatives that are either designated in this category or are not classified in any of the other
categories. Available-for-sale financial assets are recognized initially at fair value plus transaction costs. Subsequent to initial
recognition these are measured at fair value and changes therein, other than impairment losses and foreign exchange gains and losses
on available-for-sale monetary items are recognized in other comprehensive income and presented within equity. When an
investment is derecognized, the cumulative gain or loss in equity is transferred to the statement of income.
(iii) Trade and other payables
Trade and other payables are initially recognized at fair value and subsequently carried at amortized cost using the effective interest
method.
b) Derivative financial instruments
The Company holds derivative financial instruments such as foreign exchange forward and option contracts to mitigate the risk of
changes in foreign exchange rates on foreign currency assets or liabilities and forecasted cash flows denominated in foreign currencies.
The counterparty for these contracts is generally a bank.
Derivatives are recognized and measured at fair value. Attributable transaction cost are recognized in statement of income as cost.
126
(i) Cash flow hedges: Changes in the fair value of the derivative hedging instrument designated as a cash flow hedge are recognized in
other comprehensive income and presented within equity in the cash flow hedging reserve to the extent that the hedge is effective. To
the extent that the hedge is ineffective, changes in fair value are recognized in the statement of income. If the hedging instrument no
longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting, expires or is sold, terminated or exercised, then hedge accounting is discontinued
prospectively. The cumulative gain or loss previously recognized in the cash flow hedging reserve is transferred to the statement of
income upon the occurrence of the related forecasted transaction.
(ii) Others: Changes in fair value of foreign currency derivative instruments not designated as cash flow hedges and the ineffective portion
of cash flow hedges are recognized in the statement of income and reported within foreign exchange gains/(losses), net under results
from operating activities.
(v) Property, plant and equipment
a) Recognition and measurement: Property, plant and equipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment
losses, if any. Cost includes expenditures directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset.
b) Depreciation: The Company depreciates property, plant and equipment over the estimated useful life on a straight-line basis from
the date the assets are available for use. Assets acquired under finance lease and leasehold improvements are amortized over the
shorter of estimated useful life or the related lease term. The estimated useful lives of assets for the current and comparative period of
significant items of property, plant and equipment are as follows:
Category
Useful life
Buildings
25 to 30 years
Computer systems
1 to 3 years
Furniture, fixtures and equipment
3 to 5 years
Vehicles
4 to 5 years
Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at each reporting date.
When parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate items (major
components) of property, plant and equipment. Subsequent expenditure relating to property, plant and equipment is capitalized
only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with these will flow to the Company and the cost of the item can be
measured reliably. Repairs and maintenance costs are recognized in the statement of income when incurred. The cost and related
accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the unaudited consolidated financial statements upon sale or disposition of the
asset and the resultant gains or losses are recognized in the statement of income.
Deposits and advances paid towards the acquisition of property, plant and equipment outstanding as of each reporting date and the cost
of property, plant and equipment not available for use before such date are disclosed under capital work- in-progress.
(vi)
Business combination, Goodwill and Intangible assets

Business combinations are accounted for using the purchase (acquisition) method. The cost of an acquisition is measured as the fair
value of the assets given, equity instruments issued and liabilities incurred or assumed at the date of exchange. The cost of acquisition
also includes the fair value of any contingent consideration. Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities
assumed in a business combination are measured initially at fair value at the date of acquisition.
Transaction costs incurred in connection with a business combination are expensed as incurred.
a) Goodwill
The excess of the cost of acquisition over the Companys share in the fair value of the acquirees identifiable assets, liabilities and
contingent liabilities is recognized as goodwill. If the excess is negative, a bargain purchase gain is recognized immediately in the
statement of income.
b) Intangible assets
Intangible assets are stated at cost less accumulated amortization and impairments. Intangible assets are amortized over their
respective individual estimated useful lives on a straight-line basis, from the date that they are available for use. The estimated useful
life of an identifiable intangible asset is based on a number of factors including the effects of obsolescence, demand, competition and
other economic factors (such as the stability of the industry and known technological advances) and the level of
maintenance expenditures required to obtain the expected future cash flows from the asset.
The estimated useful life for intellectual property related intangibles is estimated at 5 years and computer software is estimated at 1
to 2 years.
(vii) Leases
Leases under which the company assumes substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are classified as finance leases.
When acquired, such assets are capitalized at fair value or present value of the minimum lease payments at the inception of the lease,
whichever is lower. Lease payments under operating leases are recognised as an expense on a straight line basis in the statement of
income over the lease term.
(viii) Impairment
a) Financial assets
The Company assesses at each reporting date whether there is any objective evidence that a financial asset or a group of financial assets
is impaired. If any such indication exists, the Company estimates the amount of impairment loss.
127
(i) Loans and receivables

Impairment losses on trade and other receivables are recognized using separate allowance accounts.
(ii) Available-for-sale financial asset
When the fair value of available-for-sale financial assets declines below acquisition cost and there is objective evidence that the asset
is impaired, the cumulative loss that has been recognized in other comprehensive income, a component of equity in other reserve is
transferred to the statement of income. An impairment loss may be reversed in subsequent periods, if the indicators for the
impairment no longer exist. Such reversals are recognized in other comprehensive income.
b) Non-financial assets
The carrying amounts of the Companys non-financial assets, other than inventories and deferred tax assets, are reviewed at each
reporting date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, then the assets
recoverable amount is estimated.
The recoverable amount of an asset or cash-generating unit (as defined below) is the greater of its value in use and its fair value less
costs to sell. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate
that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. For the purpose of impairment
testing, assets are grouped together into the smallest group of assets that generates cash inflows from continuing use that are largely
independent of the cash inflows of other assets or groups of assets (the cash- generating unit).
The goodwill acquired in a business combination is, for the purpose of impairment testing, allocated to cash-generating units
that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination.
c) Reversal of impairment loss
An impairment loss for financial assets is reversed if the reversal can be related objectively to an event occurring after the
impairment loss was recognized. An impairment loss in respect of goodwill is not reversed. In respect of other assets, an impairment
loss is reversed if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. The carrying amount of an asset
other than goodwill is increased to its revised recoverable amount, provided that this amount does not exceed the carrying amount that
would have been determined (net of any accumulated amortization or depreciation) had no impairment loss been recognized for the
asset in prior years. A reversal of impairment loss for an asset other than goodwill and available- for-sale financial assets that are
equity securities is recognized in the statement of income. For available-for-sale financial assets that are equity securities, the reversal
is recognized in other comprehensive income.
(ix)
Employee Benefit
The Group participates in various employee benefit plans. Post-employment benefits are classified as either defined contribution plans
or defined benefit plans. Under a defined contribution plan, the Companys only obligation is to pay a fixed amount with no
obligation to pay further contributions if the fund does not hold sufficient assets to pay all employee benefits. The related actuarial and
investment risks fall on the employee. The expenditure for defined contribution plans is recognized as expense during the period
when the employee provides service. Under a defined benefit plan, it is the Companys obligation to provide agreed benefits to the
employees. The related actuarial and investment risks fall on the Company. The present value of the defined benefit obligations is
calculated using the projected unit credit method.
The Company has the following employee benefit plans:
a) Provident fund
Employees receive benefits from a provident fund. The employer and employees each make periodic contributions to the
government administered plan equal to a specified percentage of the covered employees salary.
b) Gratuity
In accordance with the Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972, the Company provides for a lump sum payment to eligible employees, at
retirement or termination of employment based on the last drawn salary and years of employment with the Company. The gratuity fund
is managed by the Life Insurance Corporation of India (LIC), ICICI Prudential Life Insurance Company and SBI Life Insurance
Company. The Companys obligation in respect of the gratuity plan, which is a defined benefit plan, is provided for based on
actuarial valuation using the projected unit credit method. In the current period, the Company has applied IAS 19 (as revised in
June 2011) Employee Benefits (IAS 19R) and the related consequential amendments. IAS 19R has been applied retrospectively in
accordance with transitional provisions. As a result, all actuarial gains or losses are immediately recognized in other comprehensive
income and permanently excluded from profit or loss. Further, the profit or loss will no longer include an expected return on plan assets.
Instead net interest recognized in profit or loss is calculated by applying the discount rate used to measure the defined benefit
obligation to the net defined benefit liability or asset. The actual return on the plan assets above or below the discount rate is
recognized as part of re-measurement of net defined liability or asset through other comprehensive income. The adoption of Revised
IAS 19 did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements. Also, the comparative information has not been restated
as the effect of the change in the accounting policy is not material on the consolidated financial statements.
c) Compensated absences
The employees of the Company are entitled to compensated absences. The employees can carry forward a portion of the unutilised
accumulating compensated absences and utilise it in future periods or receive cash at retirement or termination of employment.
The Company records an obligation for compensated absences in the period in which the employee renders the services that increases
this entitlement. The Company measures the expected cost of compensated absences as the additional amount that the Company
expects to pay as a result of the unused entitlement that has accumulated at the end of the reporting period. The Company recognizes
128
accumulated compensated absences based on actuarial valuation. Non-accumulating compensated absences are recognized in the
period in which the absences occur. The Company recognizes actuarial gains and losses immediately in the statement of income.
(x)
Share based payment transaction

Employees of the Company receive remuneration in the form of equity settled instruments, for rendering services over a
defined vesting period. Equity instruments granted are measured by reference to the fair value of the instrument at the date of grant.
The expense is recognized in the statement of income with a corresponding increase to the share based payment reserve, a component
of equity.
The equity instruments generally vest in a graded manner over the vesting period. The fair value determined at the grant date is
expensed over the vesting period of the respective tranches of such grants (accelerated amortization). The stock compensation
expense is determined based on the Companys estimate of equity instruments that will eventually vest.
The fair value of the amount payable to the employees in respect of SARs, which are settled in cash, is recognized as an expense with a
corresponding increase in liabilities, over the period during which the employees become unconditionally entitled to payment. The
liability is remeasured at each reporting date and at settlement date based on the fair value of the SARs. Any changes in the liability are
recognized in statement of income.
(xi)
Provisions
Provisions are recognized when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is
probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate can be made of the
amount of the obligation.
The amount recognized as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the end of the
reporting period, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation.
When some or all of the economic benefits required to settle a provision are expected to be recovered from a third party, the receivable
is recognized as an asset, if it is virtually certain that reimbursement will be received and the amount of the receivable can be
measured reliably.
Provisions for onerous contracts are recognized when the expected benefits to be derived by the Group from a contract are lower than
the unavoidable costs of meeting the future obligations under the contract. Provisions for onerous contracts are measured at the
present value of lower of the expected net cost of fulfilling the contract and the expected cost of terminating the contract.
(xii)
Revenue
The Company derives revenue primarily from software development and related services. The Company recognizes revenue when the
significant terms of the arrangement are enforceable, services have been delivered and the collectability is reasonably assured. The
method for recognizing revenues and costs depends on the nature of the services rendered:
a) Time and materials contracts

Revenues and costs relating to time and materials contracts are recognized as the related services are rendered.
b) Fixed-price contracts
Revenues from fixed-price contracts are recognized using the percentage-of-completion method. Percentage of completion is
determined based on project costs incurred to date as a percentage of total estimated project costs required to complete the project. The
cost expended (or input) method has been used to measure progress towards completion as there is a direct relationship between
input and productivity.
If the Company does not have a sufficient basis to measure the progress of completion or to estimate the total contract revenues and
costs, revenue is recognized only to the extent of contract cost incurred for which recoverability is probable.
When total cost estimates exceed revenues in an arrangement, the estimated losses are recognized in the statement of income in the
period in which such losses become probable based on the current contract estimates.
Unbilled revenues represent cost and earnings in excess of billings as at the end of the reporting period.
Unearned revenues represent billing in excess of revenue recognized. Advance payments received from customers for which
no services are rendered are presented as Advance from customers.
c) Maintenance contracts
Revenue from maintenance contracts is recognized ratably over the period of the contract using the percentage of completion method.
When services are performed through an indefinite number of repetitive acts over a specified period of time, revenue is recognized on
a straight line basis over the specified period or under some other method that better represents the stage of completion.
In arrangements for software development and related services and maintenance services, the Company has applied the guidance in IAS
18, Revenue, by applying the revenue recognition criteria for each separately identifiable component of a single transaction. The
arrangements generally meet the criteria for considering software development and related services as separately identifiable
components. For allocating the consideration, the company has measured the revenue in respect of each separable component of a
transaction at its fair value, in accordance with principles given in IAS 18
The Company accounts for volume discounts and pricing incentives to customers by reducing the amount of revenue recognized
at the time of sale.
Revenues are shown net of sales tax, value added tax, service tax and applicable discounts and allowances.
129
The Company accrues the estimated cost of post contract support services at the time when the revenue is recognized. The accruals
are based on the Companys historical experience of material usage and service delivery costs.
(xiii) Finance income and expense
Finance income consists of interest income on funds invested (including available-for- sale financial assets), dividend income and
gains on the disposal of available-for-sale financial assets. Interest income is recognized as it accrues in the statement of income, using
the effective interest method.
Dividend income is recognized in the statement of income on the date that the Companys right to receive payment is established.
Finance expenses consist of interest expense on loans and borrowings and impairment losses recognized on financial assets (other
than trade receivables). Borrowing costs are recognized in the statement of income using the effective interest method.
Foreign currency gains and losses are reported on a net basis. This includes changes in the fair value of foreign exchange derivative
instruments, which are accounted at fair value through profit or loss.
(xiv) Income tax
Income tax comprises current and deferred tax. Income tax expense is recognized in the statement of income except to the extent it
relates to items directly recognized in equity or in other comprehensive income.
(a) Current income tax
Current income tax for the current and prior periods are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation
authorities based on the taxable income for the period. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the current tax amount are those that
are enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date and applicable for the period. The Company offsets current tax assets and
current tax liabilities, where it has a legally enforceable right to set off the recognized amounts and where it intends either to settle on a
net basis or to realize the asset and liability simultaneously.
(b) Deferred income tax
Deferred income tax is recognized using the balance sheet approach. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for
deductible and taxable temporary differences arising between the tax base of assets and liabilities and their carrying amount in financial
statements, except when the deferred income tax arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or an asset or liability in a transaction
that is not a business combination and affects neither accounting nor taxable profits or loss at the time of the transaction.
Deferred income tax asset are recognized to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the
deductible temporary differences, and the carry forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilized.
Deferred income tax liabilities are recognized for all taxable temporary differences.
The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer
probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred income tax asset to be utilized.
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period when the asset is realized
or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.
(xv)
Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period.
Diluted EPS is computed by dividing the net profit after tax by the weighted average number of equity shares considered for deriving
basic EPS and also weighted average number of equity shares that could have been issued upon conversion of all dilutive
potential equity shares. Dilutive potential equity shares are deemed converted as of the beginning of the period, unless issued at a later
date. Dilutive potential equity shares are determined independently for each period presented.
(xvi) Government grants

(i) the Group will comply with the conditions attached to them; and
Government grants related to revenue are recognised on a systematic basis in the statement of income over the periods
necessary to match them with the related costs which they are intended to compensate. Such grants are deducted in reporting the
related expense. Where the Group receives non-monetary grants, the asset is accounted for on the basis of its acquisition cost. In case
a non-monetary asset is given free of cost it is recognised at a nominal value.
The following changes in accounting policies are also expected to be reflected in the Groups consolidated financial statements as at
and for the year ending March 31, 2014.
Changes in accounting policies
The Group has adopted the following new standards and amendments to standards, including any consequential amendments to other
standards, with a date of initial application of April 1, 2013.
- IFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements (2011) (see 3(i))
- IFRS 13 Fair Value Measurement (see (a) below) *
- Presentation of Items of Other Comprehensive Income (Amendments to IAS 1) (see (c))
- IAS 19 Employee Benefits (2011) (see (3)(ix)(b))
- Annual Improvements to IFRS 20092011 Cycle *
- IFRS 11 Joint Arrangements *
- IFRS 12 Disclosure of interest in other entities *
130
The nature and the effect of the changes are further explained below.
* The adoption of these standards did not have any impact on the unaudited consolidated financial statement of the group.
(a) Fair value measurement
IFRS 13 establishes a single framework for measuring fair value and making disclosures about fair value measurements, when such
measurements are required or permitted by other IFRSs. In particular, it unifies the definition of fair value as the price at which an
orderly transaction to sell an asset or to transfer a liability would take place between market participants at the measurement date. It
also replaces and expands the disclosure requirements about fair value measurements in other IFRSs, including IFRS 7 Financial
Instruments: Disclosures.
Notwithstanding the above, the change had no significant impact on the measurements of the Groups assets and liabilities.
(b) Presentation of items of other comprehensive income
As a result of the amendments to IAS 1, the Group has modified the presentation of items of other comprehensive income in its
consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, to present separately items that would be reclassified to
profit or loss in the future from those that would never be. Comparative information has also been re-presented accordingly.
The adoption of the amendment to IAS 1 has no impact on the recognised assets, liabilities and comprehensive income of the Group.
(c) IAS 1 Clarification of the requirement for comparative information (Amendment)
These amendments clarify the difference between voluntary additional comparative information and the minimum required
comparative information. An entity must include comparative information in the related notes to the financial statements when
it voluntarily provides comparative information beyond the minimum required comparative period.
The amendments clarify that the opening statement of financial position (as at 1 January 2012 in the case of the Group), presented as a
result of retrospective restatement or reclassification of items in financial statements does not have to be accompanied by comparative
information in the related notes. As a result, the Group has not included comparative information in respect of the opening statement of
financial position as at 1 January 2012. The amendments affect presentation only and have no impact on the Groups financial
position or performance.
New standards and interpretations not yet adopted
(a) IFRS 9 Financial Instruments: In November 2009, the International Accounting Standards Board issued IFRS9, Financial Instruments:
Recognition and Measurement, to reduce the complexity of the current rules on financial instruments as mandated in IAS39. The
effective date to adopt IFRS 9 is yet to be notified. IFRS 9 has fewer classification and measurement categories as compared to IAS39 and
has eliminated the categories of held to maturity, available for sale and loans and receivables. Further it eliminates the rule-based
requirement of segregating embedded derivatives and tainting rules pertaining to held-to maturity investments. For an investment in an
equity instrument which is not held for trading, IFRS 9 permits an irrevocable election, on initial recognition, on an individual
share-by-share basis, to present all fair value changes from the investment in other comprehensive income. No amount recognized in
other comprehensive income would ever be reclassified to profit or loss. IFRS 9, was further amended in October 2010, and such
amendment introduced requirements on accounting for financial liabilities. This amendment addresses the issue of volatility in the
profit or loss due to changes in the fair value of an entitys own debt. It requires the entity, which chooses to measure a liability at fair
value, to present the portion of the fair value change attributable to the entitys own credit risk in the other comprehensive income. The
Company is currently evaluating the requirements of IFRS9, and has not yet determined the impact on the consolidated financial
statements.
(b) Amendments to IAS 32 Offsetting Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities: In December 2011, the International Accounting Standards
Board issued amendments to IAS 32, Offsetting Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. The amendments clarify that:
nan entity currently has a legally enforceable right to set-off if that right is:
- not contingent on future event; and
- enforceable both in the normal course of business and in the event of default, insolvency or bankruptcy of the entity and all
counterparties;
ngross settlement is equivalent to net settlement if and only if the gross settlement mechanism has features that:
- eliminate or result in insignificant credit and liquidity risk; and
- process receivables and payables in a single settlement process or cycle.
The Company is required to adopt amendments to IAS 32 by accounting year commencing April 1, 2014. The Company is
currently evaluating the requirements of IAS 32 amendments and has not yet determined the impact on the consolidated
financial statements
(c) Investment Entities (Amendments to IFRS 10, IFRS 12 and IAS 27): These amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or
after 1 January 2014 provide an exception to the consolidation requirement for entities that meet the definition of an investment entity
under IFRS 10. The exception to consolidation requires investment entities to account for subsidiaries at fair value through profit or
loss. This amendment is not expected to be relevant to the Group, since none of the entities in the Group would qualify to be an
investment entity under IFRS 10.
(d) IFRIC 21 Levies: IFRIC 21 clarifies that an entity recognises a liability for a levy when the activity that triggers payment, as identified by
the relevant legislation, occurs. For a levy that is triggered upon reaching a minimum threshold, the interpretation clarifies that no
liability should be anticipated before the specified minimum threshold is reached.
IFRIC 21 is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2014. The Company is currently evaluating the requirements
to IFRS 21, and has not yet determined the impact on the consolidated financial statements.
131
(e) IAS 39 Novation of Derivatives and Continuation of Hedge Accounting Amendments to IAS 39: These amendments provide
relief from discontinuing hedge accounting when novation of a derivative designated as a hedging instrument meets certain criteria.
These amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2014. The Group has not novated its derivatives
during the current period. The Company is currently evaluating the requirements to IAS 39, and has not yet determined the impact on
the consolidated financial statements.
(f) Recoverable Amount Disclosures for Non-Financial Assets Amendments to IAS 36 Impairment of Assets: These amendments
remove the unintended consequences of IFRS 13 on the disclosures required under IAS 36. In addition, these amendments require
disclosure of the recoverable amounts for the assets or CGUs for which impairment loss has been recognised or reversed during the
period. These amendments are effective retrospectively for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2014 with earlier
application permitted, provided IFRS 13 is also applied. The Group is currently evaluating the requirements of IAS 36, and has not
yet determined the impact in the consolidated financial statements.

Derivative financial instruments
The Company is exposed to foreign currency fluctuations on foreign currency assets/ liabilities and forecasted cash flows denominated in
foreign currency. The Company follows established risk management policies, including the use of derivatives to hedge foreign currency
assets/ liabilities and foreign currency forecasted cash flows. The counter party in these derivative instruments is a bank and the Company
considers the risks of non-performance by the counterparty as non-material.

Financial risk management
The Company's activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The Company's primary focus is to
foresee the unpredictability of financial markets and seek to minimize potential adverse effects on its financial performance. The
primary market risk to the Company is foreign exchange risk. The Company uses derivative financial instruments to mitigate foreign
exchange related risk exposures. The Company's exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristic of each customer
and the concentration of risk from the top few customers.
Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual
obligations and arises principally from the Companys receivables from customers and investment securities. Credit risk is managed
through credit approvals, establishing credit limits, continuously monitoring the creditworthiness of customers to which the Company grants
credit terms in the normal course of business. The Company also assesses the financial reliability of customers taking into account the
financial condition, current economic trends and historical bad debts and ageing of accounts receivables. The Company establishes an
allowance for doubtful debts and impairment that represents its estimate of incurred losses in respect of trade and other receivables and
investments.
Trade and other receivables
The Companys exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristics of each customer. The demographics
of the customer, including the default risk of the industry and country in which the customer operates, also has an influence on credit risk
assessment.
The following table gives details in respect of percentage of revenues generated from top customer and top 5 customers:
Particulars
2014
2013
Revenue from top customer
2,341
1,876

9,688
7,836
No single customer accounted for more than 10% of the receivables and revenues for the years March 31, 2014 and March 31, 2013 and
hence there is no significant concentration of credit risk.
Investments
The Company limits its exposure to credit risk by generally investing in liquid securities and only with counter-parties that have a good credit
rating. The Company does not expect any losses from non-performance by these counter-parties and does not have any significant
concentration of exposures to specific industry sectors.
Financial assets that are neither past due nor impaired
Cash and cash equivalents, available-for-sale financial assets and interest bearing deposits with corporates are neither past due nor
impaired. Cash and cash equivalents include deposits with banks with high credit-ratings assigned by international and domestic
credit-rating agencies. Available-for-sale financial assets include investment in liquid mutual fund units and unlisted equity
instruments. Deposits with corporates represent funds deposited with financial institutions for a specified time period. Of the total trade
receivables, ` 5,048 and ` 3,716 as of March 31, 2014 and March 31, 2013 respectively, were neither past due nor impaired.
138
Financial assets that are past due but not impaired

There is no other class of financial assets that is past due but not impaired except for trade receivables. The Company's credit period generally
ranges from 30-90 days. The age wise break up of trade receivables, net of allowances that are past due, is given below:

Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they become due. The Company
manages its liquidity risk by ensuring, as far as possible, that it will always have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due. Also, the
Company has unutilized credit limits with banks.
The Companys corporate treasury department is responsible for liquidity, funding as well as settlement management. In addition, processes
and policies related to such risks are overseen by senior management.

Foreign Currency risk

The Companys exchange risk arises from its foreign operations, foreign currency revenues and expenses (primarily in U.S. dollars,
British pound sterling and euros) and foreign currency borrowings (in U.S. dollars). A significant portion of the Companys revenues are in
these foreign currencies, while a significant portion of its costs are in Indian rupees. As a result, if the value of the Indian rupee appreciates
relative to these foreign currencies, the Companys revenues measured in rupees may decrease. The exchange rate between the
Indian rupee and these foreign currencies has changed substantially in recent periods and may continue to fluctuate substantially in the
future. The Company has a foreign currency advisory committee which meets on a periodic basis to formulate the strategy for foreign currency
risk management.
Consequently, the Company uses derivative financial instruments, such as foreign exchange forward and option contracts, to mitigate
the risk of changes in foreign currency exchange rates in respect of its forecasted cash flows and trade receivables.
The Company has designated certain derivative instruments as cash flow hedge to mitigate the foreign exchange exposure of
forecasted highly probable cash flows.
The details in respect of the outstanding foreign exchange forward and option contracts are given under the derivative financial instruments
section.
139
In respect of the Companys forward and option contracts, a 1% decrease/increase in the respective exchange rates of each of the currencies
underlying such contracts would have resulted in:
a) an approximately ` 33 increase/decrease in the Companys hedging reserve and an approximately ` Nil increase/decrease in the
Companys net profit as at March 31, 2014;
b) an approximately ` 69 increase/decrease in the Companys hedging reserve and an approximately ` Nil increase/decrease in the
Companys net profit as at March 31, 2013; and

For the year ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 respectively, every 1% increase/decrease of the respective foreign currencies compared to
functional currency of the Company would impact operating margins by 0.40 % and 0.37% respectively.
Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk primarily arises from floating rate borrowing, including various revolving and other lines of credit. The Companys
borrowings and investments are primarily short-term, which do not expose it to significant interest rate risk.
For details of the Companys borrowings and investments, refer to note 6 and 10 above.

export operations and profits from undertakings situated in Software Technology Parks and Export Oriented units. Under the tax holiday, the
taxpayer can utilize an exemption from income taxes for a period of any ten consecutive years. The tax holidays on all facilities under Software
Technology Parks and Export oriented units has expired on March 31, 2011. Additionally, under the Special Economic Zone Act, 2005 scheme,
units in designated special economic zones providing service on or after April 1, 2005 will be eligible for a deduction of 100 percent of profits
or gains derived from the export of services for the first five years from commencement of provision of services and 50 percent of such profits
and gains for a further five years. Certain tax benefits are also available for a further five years subject to the unit meeting defined conditions.
Profits from certain other undertakings are also eligible for preferential tax treatment. In addition, dividend income from certain
category of investments is exempt from tax. The difference between the reported income tax expense and income tax computed at statutory
tax rate is primarily attributable to income exempt from tax.
Pursuant to the changes in the Indian income tax laws in fiscal 2007, Minimum Alternate Tax (MAT) has been extended to income in respect of

current domestic taxes after considering MAT. The excess tax paid under MAT provisions over and above normal tax liability can be carried
141
forward and set-off against future tax liabilities computed under normal tax provisions. The Company was required to pay MAT and

March 31, 2013 respectively, which can be carried forward for a period of ten years from the year of recognition.

ended March 31, 2014 and a special dividend of 50% (` 5 per equity share of par value ` 10 each) for completion of 15 years in business. The
proposal is subject to the approval of shareholders at the Annual General Meeting to be held on July 18, 2014, and if approved, would
result in a cash outflow of approximately ` 732, inclusive of corporate dividend tax of ` 106.

necessary formalities. If the proposed 1:1 bonus share issue is approved by shareholders prior to the date of the AGM, the final and special
dividend amounts would be accordingly reduced to 25% (` 2.5 per equity share of ` 10 each).
In the event of liquidation of the Company, the holders of equity shares will be entitled to receive any of the remaining assets of the
Company after distribution of all preferential amounts. However, no such preferential amounts exist currently. The distribution will be in
proportion to the number of equity shares held by the shareholders.

24. Segment information

The CEO & MD of the company has been identified as the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) as defined by IFRS 8 Operating Segments.
The CODM evaluates the Companys performance and allocates resources based on an analysis of various performance indicators by industry
classes and geographic segmentation of customers. Accordingly, segment information has been presented both along industry classes and
geographic segmentation of customers.
Effective April 1, 2013, the Group has restructured its organisational and management structure to be better aligned to market
needs. Pursuant to such re- organization, the Group has identified Manufacturing, BFSI, Hitech, Travel and Transportation and Others as its
reportable business segments in line with the segment wise information which is being presented to the CODM. Accordingly, comparatives
are also presented in accordance with new segment reporting.
The accounting principles used in the preparation of the financial statements are consistently applied to record revenue and expenditure in
individual segments, and are as set out in the significant policies.
Geographic segmentation is based on business sources from that geographic region and delivered from both on-site and off-shore. America
comprises of United States of America and Canada, Europe includes Continental Europe and United Kingdom; and the rest of the world
comprises of all other places except those mentioned above and India.
Income and direct expenses in relation to segments are categorized based on items that are individually identifiable to that segment, while
the remainder of costs are apportioned on an appropriate basis. Certain expenses are not specifically allocable to individual segments as the
underlying services are used interchangeably. The management therefore believes that it is not practical to provide segment disclosures
relating to such expenses and accordingly such expenses are separately disclosed as unallocated and directly charged against total income.
The assets of the Company are used interchangeably between segments, and the management believes that it is currently not practical to
