 4.  Segment reporting
 
 Identification of Segments
 
 The Company''s operating businesses are organized and managed separately
 according to the nature of products and services provided, with each
 segment representing a strategic business unit that offers different
 products and serves different markets. The analysis of geographical
 segments is based on the areas in which major operating divisions of
 the Company operate.
 
 (i) Business Segments
 
 The operations of the Company predominately relate to providing
 Software services, infrastructure services including sale of networking
 equipment and business processing outsourcing services, which are in
 the nature of customer contact centers and technical help desks. The
 Chairman of the Company, who is the Chief Strategy Officer, evaluates
 the Company''s performance and allocates resources based on an analysis
 of various performance indicators by types of service provided by the
 Company and geographic segmentation of customers.
 
 Accordingly, revenue from service segments comprises the primary basis
 of segmental information set out in these financial statements.
 Secondary segmental reporting is performed on the basis of the
 geographical location of customers.
 
 Revenue in relation to service segments is categorised based on items
 that are individually identifiable to that segment, while expenditure
 is categorised in relation to the associated turnover of the segment.
 Assets and liabilities are also identified to service segments.
 
 (ii) Geographic Segments
 
 Geographic segmentation is based on the location of the respective
 client. The principal geographical segments have been classified as
 America, Europe and others. Europe comprises business operations
 conducted by the Company in the United Kingdom, Sweden, Germany, Italy,
 Belgium, Netherlands, Finland, Switzerland, Ireland and Poland. Since
 services provided by the Company within these European entities are
 subject to similar risks and returns, their operating results have been
 reported as one segment, namely Europe. All other customers, mainly in
 Japan, Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, Malaysia, Israel, South
 Korea, India, China, Hong Kong, Czech Republic, Macau, UAE, Portugal
 and Russia are included in others.
 
 (iii) Segment accounting policies
 
 The accounting principles consistently used in the preparation of the
 financial statements and consistently applied to record revenue and
 expenditure in individual segments are as set out in Note 1 to this
 schedule on significant accounting policies. The accounting policies in
 relation to segment accounting are as under:
 
 a) Segment assets and liabilities
 
 All segment assets and liabilities have been allocated to the various
 segments on the basis of specific identification.
 
 Segment assets consist principally of fixed assets, sundry debtors,
 loans and advances, cash and bank balances and unbilled receivables.
 Segment assets do not include unallocated corporate and treasury
 assets, net deferred tax assets and advance taxes.
 
 Segment liabilities include sundry creditors and other liabilities.
 Segment liabilities do not include share capital, reserves, secured
 loans, unsecured loan and provision for taxes.
 
 b) Segment revenue and expenses
 
 Segment revenue is directly attributable to the segment and segment
 expenses have been allocated to various segments on the basis of
 specific identification. However, segment revenue does not include
 miscellaneous income, income from investments and other income. Segment
 expenses do not include premium amortized on bonds, diminution
 allowance in respect of current and trade investments, other than
 temporary diminution in the value of long term investment, charge taken
 for stock options issued to employees, corporate expenses and finance
 cost.

 c) Guarantees have been given by the Company on behalf of various
 subsidiaries against credit facilities, financial assistance and office
 premises taken on lease amounting to Rs 2,283.86 crores (previous year Rs
 2,219.44 crores).  These guarantees have been given in the normal
 course of the Company''s operations and are not expected to result in
 any loss to the Company on the basis of the beneficiaries fulfilling
 their ordinary commercial obligations.
 
 d) Bank guarantees of Rs 24.39 crores (previous year Rs 6.39 crores).
 These guarantees have been given in the normal course of the Company''s
 operations and are not expected to result in any loss to the Company,
 on the basis of the Company fulfilling its ordinary commercial
 obligations.
 
 The amounts shown in the items above represent best possible estimates
 arrived at on the basis of available information.  The uncertainties
 and possible reimbursements are dependent on the outcome of the
 different legal processes which have been invoked by the Company or the
 claimants as the case may be and therefore cannot be predicted
 accurately.  The Company engages reputed professional advisors to
 protect its interest and has been advised that it has strong legal
 positions against such disputes.
 
 iii) The Company has a comprehensive system of maintenance of
 information and documents as required by the transfer pricing
 legislation under sections 92-92F of the Income Tax Act, 1961. Since
 the law requires existence of such information and documentation to be
 contemporaneous in nature, the Company appoints independent consultants
 for conducting a Transfer Pricing Study to determine whether the
 transactions with associated enterprises are undertaken, during the
 financial year, on an arms length basis. Adjustments, if any, arising
 from the transfer pricing study in the respective jurisdictions are
 accounted for as and when the study is completed for the current
 financial year. However the management is of the opinion that its
 international transactions are at arms'' length so that the aforesaid
 legislation will not have any impact on the financial statements.
 
 11. Derivative Financial Instruments
 
 The Company is exposed to foreign currency fluctuations on foreign
 currency assets / liabilities, forecasted cash flows denominated in
 foreign currency. The use of derivatives to hedge foreign currency
 forecasted cash flows is governed by the Company’s strategy, which
 provide principles on the use of such forward contracts and currency
 options consistent with the Company’s Risk Management Policy. The
 counter party in these derivative instruments are banks and the Company
 considers the risks of non-performance by the counterparty as
 non-material. A majority of the forward foreign exchange / option
 contracts mature between one to twenty months and the forecasted
 transactions are expected to occur during the same period. The Company
 does not use forward contracts and currency options for speculative
 purposes.
 
 As of the balance sheet date, the Company''s net foreign currency
 exposure that is not hedged is Rs 1399.20 crores (previous year Rs
 3,754.76 crores).
 
 Notes:
 
 1.  Balance as at year end is inclusive of deferred tax liability of Rs
 4.27 crores (previous year deferred tax assets of Rs 7.51 crores).
 
 2.  At 30 June 2011, the estimated net amount of existing gain that is
 expected to be reclassified into the income statement within the next
 twelve months is Rs 23.51 crores (previous year loss of Rs 99.97 crores).
 
 14.  Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises
 
 As per information available with the management, the dues payable as
 at any time during the year ended 30 June 2011 and 2010 to enterprises
 covered under The Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises Development Act,
 2006 is Rs Nil crores.
 
 This has been determined on the basis of responses received from
 vendors on specific confirmation sought by the Company in this regard.
 
 15.  Employee Benefit Plans
 
 The Company has calculated the various benefits provided to employees
 as under:
 
 A.  Defined Contribution Plans and State Plans
 
 Superannuation Fund
 
 Employer’s contribution to Employees’ State Insurance
 
 Employer’s contribution to Employees’ Pension Scheme.
 
 B.  Defined Benefit Plans
 
 a) Gratuity
 
 b) Employers Contribution to Provident Fund
 
 Gratuity
 
 The Company has a defined benefit gratuity plan. Every employee who has
 completed five years or more of service gets a gratuity on departure at
 15 days salary (last drawn salary) for each completed year of service.
 
 The Company expects to contribute Rs 20.31 crores to gratuity in
 2011-12.
 
 Employer’s Contribution to Provident Fund
 
 The Guidance on implementing AS 15, Employee Benefits (revised 2005)
 issued by the Accounting Standard Board (ASB) states that benefits
 involving employer-established provident funds, which require interest
 shortfall to be recompensed are to be considered as defined benefits
 plans. Pending the issuance of the guidance note from the Actuarial
 Society of India, the Company''s actuary has expressed his inability to
 reliably measure provident fund liabilities. Accordingly the Company is
 unable to provide the related information.
 
 During the year ended 30 June 2011, the Company has contributed Rs 58.77
 crores (Previous year Rs 48.13 crores) towards employers’ contribution
 to the Provident Fund.
