 (March 31, 2010 Rs902.44 lakhs) for its 45.77% (March 31, 2010, 49.87%)
 equity share in ConnectM Technology Solutions Pvt. Ltd.(ConnectM).

 proportionate share of cumulative loss incurred as of March 31, 2011 is
 Rs1,243.64 lakhs (March 31, 2010, Rs798.26 lakhs). The Company believes
 that ConnectM is currently in the initial stages of business
 development and these losses are initial start up losses and hence

 (TACO) each hold 50% of the equity in TACO Sasken Automotive
