 15. Employee Stock Option Plan
 
 Under the MRO-TEK Employee Stock Option Scheme 2005, the Compensation
 Committee of the Board had granted, on 24 October 2007, ie., during the
 financial year 2007-08, Stock Options equivalent to 5,50,000 equity
 shares (of Rs. 5 each), to the eligible employees, at an exercise price
 of Rs.20 per share (inclusive of premium of Rs.15 per share) to be
 vested in October 2008, each such option to be exercised for one equity
 share of Rs.5 each, fully paid-up, on payment to the Company of the
 aforesaid exercise amount on or after vesting, but within the
 exercise period of three months from the vesting date - ie on or
 before 23 January 2009.
 
 The excess of fair market value (i.e the closing price of Companys
 shares on the stock exchange where there is the highest trading volume
 on the day prior to date of grant) over the exercise price, computed at
 Rs.23.20 per share, in accordance with the applicable Guidelines, and
 accounting norms, on said 5,50,000 shares, totally amounting to Rs.
 1,27,60,000, was recognized to be written-off over the twelve month
 period of vesting, out of which an amount of Rs 55,98,000 was
 written-off in Accounting Year 2007-08, and the balance of Rs.71,62,000
 was absorbed in the current year, during the period April to October
 2008.
 
 Against the same, as none of Employees opted for any portion of options
 so granted until the lapse of exercise period which ended on 23
 January 2009, ostensibly due to the unpredictable and unsatisfactory
 (stock) market conditions then prevailing, the whole of the options
 totalling 550,000 became unexercised portion and are held, and kept
 available, for future grant/s under the Scheme, as per provisions
 contained in CI 4(b) of the ESOP Scheme of the Company.
 
 Consequently, the entire amount of Rs. 1,27,60,000 absorbed in accounts
 until October 2008, has been written back and credited to Profit and
 Loss account during the year 2008 - 09.
 
 16. Cash & Cash equivalent reflected in Cash Flow Statement includes
 Fixed Deposits amounting to Rs. 31,00,03,000 held by the Company with
