iii. Management’s perception of risk factors: The Company is subject to various forms of business risks and contract risks.

The Company’s EPC and manufacturing business, including the Hydrocarbons segment, accounted for approximately 70 per cent of the Company’s consolidated gross revenue from operations in the first nine months of fiscal 2019.

Business risks include:

• inability to procure orders including the possibility that pre-qualification criteria may not be satisfied; and

15

Page 16: PRIVATE & CONFIDENTIAL · Web viewThe business is a leading supplier of hydro-processing reactors, ethylene oxide reactors, fluid catalytic cracking reactor regenerator systems, high-pressure

• delays in the bid selection process;

• long completion periods and significant capital outlay before project completion and generation of positive cash flows;

• delays in the construction of projects giving rise to potential liabilities and lower than expected returns;

• scarcity of components and raw materials;

• restrictions under union agreements on the Company’s ability to adjust its workforce needs;

• significant financial exposure to, and uncertainty as to, the long-term viability of large turnkey projects;

• changes in political, regulatory and legal circumstances like FATCA regulation, Anti-bribery law , Anti-corruption and money laundering laws etc.

• slowing economic conditions leading to subsequent delays in customer payments;

• cancellation of projects due to changes in government or the legal and regulatory landscape, or policy actions;

• delays in project execution due to environmental, rehabilitation and resettlement risks;

• delays in project execution due to delays in obtaining raw materials, government approvals, environmental clearances or customer financing; and

• unforeseen conditions, such as adverse weather conditions and natural disasters, encountered during project execution.

Contract risks:

A significant percentage of EPC contracts are and will continue to be awarded following competitive bidding. As a consequence, these contracts are subject to a number of contract risks such as the following:

• contracts may not be finalised within the expected time frame or on expected terms;

• the Company’s inability to accurately estimate costs;

• the Company’s inability to predict cash flows and deploy funds efficiently over the life of a project;

• increases in input costs where the Company has entered into fixed-price contracts with customers;

• contractual limitations on the ability to amend contract price because of, among other things, changes in project conditions, fluctuations in costs of raw materials, freight costs, variations in labour and equipment costs, exchange fluctuations and productivity;

• unavailability of adequate skilled and unskilled personnel;

• failure to perform certain specified obligations under the Company’s infrastructure contracts, resulting in significant pay-outs under performance guarantees provided in relation to these contracts; and

• changes in scope of projects or customer specifications without adequate compensation.

16

Page 17: PRIVATE & CONFIDENTIAL · Web viewThe business is a leading supplier of hydro-processing reactors, ethylene oxide reactors, fluid catalytic cracking reactor regenerator systems, high-pressure

A combination of these business risks and contract risks may result in the Company experiencing reduced profitability or losses on projects. Although the Company seeks to minimise and spread its risks over a large number of projects, a combination of circumstances may result in significant losses on a particular project, as a consequence of which the Company’s business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected.

Apart from the abovementioned risks, the Company’s manufacturing business is also subject to various risks such as:

• failure to bring to market new products in a timely manner, or if, due to the rapid introduction of new technology, the Company’s current products become redundant, product prices fall and result in a loss in the value of the Company’s inventory;

• inability to predict order volumes in advance or manage inventory effectively;

• scarcity of complex and technically-advanced components which are usually available only from a limited number of suppliers;

• limited flexibility in deploying highly specialised or custom-built equipment being used for one project to another project;

• difficulty in selling custom-built equipment to third parties in the event of a customer default;

• product defects resulting in recall or product liability or other claims relating to product quality; and

• breakdown or failure of equipment, power supply or processes, industrial accidents, adverse weather conditions and natural disasters, which could adversely affect the Company’s manufacturing facilities.

The Company is subject to various risks with respect to its corporate structure which involves an increasing number of independently operated Subsidiaries.

In recent years, the Company’s growth has been increasingly driven by the results of its Subsidiaries that are strategically operated as stand-alone businesses. In the nine months ended 31 December 2018 the Company’s Hydrocarbons, Information Technology and Technology Services, Financial Services and Developmental Projects segments accounted for approximately 41% of the Company’s consolidated gross revenue from operations.

Many of the Subsidiaries are operated as independent businesses to encourage growth. The Company continues to invest significant funds in these businesses. The Company has been making significant investments in certain of its Subsidiaries as part of its strategic investments, which exposes the Company to additional risks. See “—The Company may be required to write down or write off certain of its strategic investments or investments in its Subsidiaries, associates or joint ventures”. As the Company acts as a holding company for its investments in certain Subsidiaries, distribution of any income by these Subsidiaries is subject to dividend distribution tax. This could have an adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations.

This corporate structure emphasising independent operating Subsidiaries is subject to various risks such as:

• reliance on dividends and distributions from independently operated Subsidiaries, including the Company’s information technology and technology services, financial services and developmental projects segments;

17

Page 18: PRIVATE & CONFIDENTIAL · Web viewThe business is a leading supplier of hydro-processing reactors, ethylene oxide reactors, fluid catalytic cracking reactor regenerator systems, high-pressure

• limited flexibility in corporate actions, including restructuring actions, that require the approval of Subsidiaries which are publicly listed, such as L&T Finance Holdings Limited, subject to separate rules and regulatory requirements; and

• reliance on independent management to operate these Subsidiaries.

Limitations on the ability of these Subsidiaries to transfer funds to the Company and the structural dependence on independently operated businesses could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.

Implementation of the Company’s expansion programme is subject to a variety of risks

The Company has implemented a number of expansion programmes in the past few years, including the expansion of existing manufacturing facilities, the extension of existing businesses into new products and services, expansion of manufacturing and fabrication bases in international geographies and the formation of strategic alliances with foreign corporations. The success of certain of these programmes is dependent on market conditions, the Company’s ability to develop new expertise and undertake new risks, and other factors applicable at the time.

Additionally, the Company’s expansion plans poses significant challenges to its management, administrative, financial and operational resources. The Company’s expansion programme increases the challenges involved in financial management, recruitment, training and retention of high quality human resources, preserving the Company’s values and entrepreneurial environment, and developing and improving its internal administrative infrastructure. The Company cannot provide any assurance that it will succeed in generating return on its investments. In the event the Company is unable to realise the benefits expected from its expansion activities, its business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely affected.

The Company may be required to write down or write off certain of its strategic investments or investments in its Subsidiaries, associates or joint ventures

The Company has made and expects to continue making certain investments in its Subsidiaries, associates, joint ventures or other entities, and loans, advances and other commitments to support certain of its Subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures and other strategic or financial investments. The Company has made significant investments into funding of certain of its Subsidiaries as part of its strategic initiative to optimize borrowing costs at a group level and as further investments in some of these businesses. These investments and commitments have included capital contributions to enhance the financial condition or liquidity position of the Subsidiaries of the Company, its associates and joint ventures. If the business and operations of these Subsidiaries, associates or joint ventures deteriorate, the Company’s investments may be required to be written down or written off or further capital injections may be required to be made.

The Company faces competition in its business from Indian and international infrastructure and manufacturing companies. If the Company cannot respond adequately to increased competition in the future, it may lose market share and its profits may decline

18

Page 19: PRIVATE & CONFIDENTIAL · Web viewThe business is a leading supplier of hydro-processing reactors, ethylene oxide reactors, fluid catalytic cracking reactor regenerator systems, high-pressure

Historically, the Company has faced limited competition in India for certain of its businesses. Substantial barriers, including regulatory restrictions on foreign investment, have curtailed foreign competition in India and limitations on industrial capacity, licensing and other controls have restricted domestic competition. In recent years, India has adopted economic policies which are likely to create increased competition in the infrastructure and manufacturing businesses, from domestic and foreign companies. While the Company believes that the liberalisation of the Indian economy creates attractive business opportunities for it, the Company also anticipates that competition from both Indian and foreign companies might increase.

In its infrastructure business, the competitive environment in which the Company operates varies depending on the size, nature and complexity of the project and on the geographical region in which the project is to be executed. The Company’s competition includes major Indian, U.S., European, Korean and other East Asian infrastructure companies. Within its manufacturing business, the Company’s competitors vary from product to product. In the switchgear industry, the Company competes with various U.S. and European companies. In the valves business, the Company is facing increased competition from Chinese, Korean and Italian manufacturers. The Company faces competition internationally from European companies in the field of mobile crushing plants and from Chinese and Eastern European companies in the manufacture of tyre machinery. In addition, political and regulatory changes in the Middle East may lead to changes in contracted terms and labour issues.

Some of the Company’s competitors, particularly international companies, are larger than it and have greater financial resources. They may also benefit from greater economies of scale and operating efficiencies. Competitors may, either through consolidation or growth, present more credible integrated and/or lower cost solutions than the Company, causing it to win fewer tenders. In addition, certain of the sectors in which the Company operates are becoming increasingly competitive leading to the market pricing projects at uneconomical levels. There can be no assurance that the Company can continue to effectively compete with its competitors in the future, and failure to compete effectively may have an adverse effect on its business, financial condition and results of operations.

Inability to obtain adequate financing to meet the Company’s liquidity and capital resource requirements may have an adverse effect on its results of operations

The Company has had, and expects to continue to have, substantial liquidity and capital resource requirements. These requirements are expected to increase in order to support the growth of the Company’s business, satisfy its capital commitments and finance its growing investment in its Subsidiaries and other new businesses. The Company will be required to supplement its cash flow from operations with external sources of financing to meet these requirements. The global capital markets are prone to experiencing, and may continue to experience, significant dislocations and liquidity disruptions. Such events have and may continue to have a significant adverse impact on the availability of credit and the confidence of the financial markets, globally as well as in India and may lead to an increase in the cost of financing. The inability of the Company to obtain financing or increase in cost of financing may impair its business, results of operations, financial condition or prospects.

Additionally, the Company’s project business requires substantial bank guarantee limits for issuance of performance bonds and advance payment guarantees to its clients. Regulatory guidelines introduced recently have significantly and adversely impacted the availability of domestic financial institutions to provide limits for the company’s business operations. In addition, requirements for the company and its subsidiaries to necessarily access capital markets in certain circumstances is likely to lead to increased cost of funding. Such constraints may affect the Company’s ability to grow its business and also impact its profitability.

Any deterioration of the Company’s credit ratings could have an adverse impact on its cost of funding and borrowing ability and may impact investor perception of its business. The Company

19

Page 20: PRIVATE & CONFIDENTIAL · Web viewThe business is a leading supplier of hydro-processing reactors, ethylene oxide reactors, fluid catalytic cracking reactor regenerator systems, high-pressure

cannot guarantee that the rating agencies will not downgrade its credit ratings in the future. Any deterioration in the Company’s credit ratings could result in increased funding costs for the Company and may limit the Company’s funding sources or impact the Company’s liquidity. If any of the foregoing were to occur, it could materially adversely affect the Company’s business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects.

As part of its financing arrangements, the Company is required to enter into certain restrictive covenants

Certain financial institutions and banks that lend to the Company have the benefit of certain restrictive covenants and right. Certain of the Company’s loan agreements contain covenants which restrict certain activities and require the Company to obtain lenders’ consents before, among other things, undertaking new projects, issuing new securities, declaring dividends in the event of non-payment and making certain investments beyond the approved amount. They also allow those lenders to sell assets of certain value in the event of non-payment of their dues. Such provisions are common in loan agreements with Indian lenders and are generally imposed on Indian borrowers, including the Company, with little or no variation. The Company’s loan agreements also require it to maintain certain financial ratios. Should the Company be in breach of any financial or other covenants contained in any of its financing agreements, the Company may be required to immediately repay its borrowings either in whole or in part, together with any related costs. The Company may be forced to sell some or all of the assets in its portfolio if it does not have sufficient cash or credit facilities to make repayments. Furthermore, the Company’s financing arrangements may contain cross default provisions which could automatically trigger defaults under other financing arrangements, in turn magnifying the effect of an individual default.

Volatility in the price of commodities could adversely affect the Company’s key customers, and therefore its business.

Price volatility of raw materials and commodities, including oil and gas, aluminium, copper and steel, creates uncertainty in respect of future project development, the rate of progress of current projects and order inflows. For example, declines in oil prices adversely affect oil-dependent economies of the Middle East, where a significant portion of the Company’s international business is focused. A decrease in the price of crude oil and natural gas would also have a negative impact on the hydrocarbon exploration industry, as well as on the mid and downstream hydrocarbon sectors, and in particular, on the Company’s customers engaged in these businesses. Volatility in the price of commodities could adversely affect the Company’s business and prospects, including its ability to expand its operations.

Risks related to environmental, employee related, health and safety laws

If the Company fails to comply with environmental, employee-related, health and safety laws and regulations or any other local laws or regulations in the countries in which it operates, it may adversely affect the Company’s business and results of operations. As an infrastructure and manufacturing company, the Company is required to comply with various laws and regulations relating to the environment. Although the Company believes that it complies in all material respects with all such statutes applicable to it and with the regulations thereunder, it may incur substantial costs to comply with requirements of environmental laws and regulations in the future. Environmental laws and regulations in India are not as extensive as they are in certain other countries, such as the United States and the European Union. They have, however, been increasing in stringency and it is possible that they will become significantly more stringent in the future. If any of the Company’s plants or the operations of such plants are shut down, the Company may continue to incur costs in complying with regulations, appealing any decision to close its facilities and continuing to pay labour and other costs which continue even if the facility is closed. As a result, the Company’s overall operating expenses may increase, adversely

20

Page 21: PRIVATE & CONFIDENTIAL · Web viewThe business is a leading supplier of hydro-processing reactors, ethylene oxide reactors, fluid catalytic cracking reactor regenerator systems, high-pressure

affecting its business and results of operations. The Company is also subject to health and safety laws and regulations as well as laws and regulations governing its relationship with its employees in areas such as minimum wages, maximum working hours, overtime, working conditions, hiring and terminating employees, contract labour and work permits. The success of the Company’s strategy to modernise and optimise its existing operations in various divisions is contingent upon, among other factors, receipt of all required licences, permits and authorisations, including local land use permits, building and zoning permits, and environmental, health and safety permits. Changes in laws or regulations in the countries in which the Company operates may result in the Company incurring significant costs in order to maintain compliance with such laws and regulations and may delay or prevent project completion. The Company’s domestic operations in India and its international operations span several core sectors and are subject to regulatory requirements and government policies. Non-compliance with any such regulations or policies may lead to imposition of trade restrictions or penalties, revocation of permits or licences for the Company’s operations or litigation that may adversely affect the Company’s reputation, brand image, business and results of operations.

Failure to effectively manage acquisitions, divestments and joint ventures that the Company makes may adversely impact the Company’s growth and profitability.

The Company evaluates merger and acquisition opportunities and strategic partnerships as part of its growth strategy and may commit itself to mergers, acquisitions or the formation of joint ventures in the future, if suitable opportunities arise. These may require significant investments which may not result in favourable returns. In the ordinary course of business, the Company also considers the disposal of non-core assets, including the Group’s road assets, power assets and realty holdings. Acquisitions, disposals and joint ventures involve additional risks, including:

• unforeseen contingent risks or latent liabilities relating to these businesses that may become apparent only after the acquisition, disposal or joint venture is completed; integration and management of the operations and systems;

• retention of select personnel;

• co-ordination of sales and marketing efforts; and

• diversion of management’s attention from other ongoing business concerns.

If the Company is unable to integrate the operations of an acquired business or joint venture successfully or manage such future acquisitions or joint ventures profitably or is unable to efficiently dispose of non-core assets or businesses, its growth plans may not be met and the Company’s cash generation and profitability may decline.

Other Business risks

The Company’s revenues and cash flows are highly dependent upon a limited number of customers. The Company has historically earned a significant proportion of its revenues and cash flows from a limited number of customers, including public sector entities in India and internationally. The nature of the Company’s infrastructure business is such that it is heavily reliant upon a relatively small number of customers for a significant portion of revenues and cash flows. A failure to place orders or pay amounts due by a number of these clients at any one time could significantly and adversely affect the Company’s revenues, cash flows and operations.

The Company relies heavily upon public sector undertakings (“PSUs”), wherein central and/or state governments hold a majority stake, to appoint it on large-scale infrastructure projects in India. PSUs can be subject to political influence; there have been instances in India where a party has been awarded a contract by a PSU, which was subsequently rescinded for reasons not

21

Page 22: PRIVATE & CONFIDENTIAL · Web viewThe business is a leading supplier of hydro-processing reactors, ethylene oxide reactors, fluid catalytic cracking reactor regenerator systems, high-pressure

connected to the project or the successful party. Additionally, many of the Company’s projects are public sector sponsored projects and these are often subject to delay, which can significantly and adversely affect the results of operations of the Company.

The Company’s order book depends on its order inflows and may be subject to unexpected adjustments and cancellations and is therefore an uncertain indicator of future earnings. As at 31 December 2018, the Company’s order book was approximately Rs. 2,840 billion on a consolidated basis. The Company cannot guarantee that the revenues anticipated in the order book will be realised or, if realised, will be realised on time or result in profits. The order book includes orders from the Company’s Subsidiaries which have not achieved financial closure and delay or inability to achieve financial closure may result in the projects remaining in the order book for an extended period of time or in cancellation of the order. In addition, project delays or cancellations or scope of work adjustments may occur from time to time due to a client’s default, incidents of force majeure, legal impediments or the Company’s default and may adversely affect the revenues and profits of the Company. Any delay in recovery to the global slowdown in economic activity (among other factors) would have a material adverse effect on the growth of the Company’s order inflows and the rate of growth of the Company’s order book and future earnings.

If the Company does not effectively manage its international operations, these operations may incur losses or otherwise adversely affect the Company’s business and results of operations. The Company has operations in more than 30 countries. It has executed projects in the Middle East, the Americas, South East Asia, the CIS and parts of Africa. These projects include airports, roads, bridges, stadia, electrical facilities, hotels, residential and commercial complexes, offshore oil and gas facilities, onshore hydrocarbon projects and cement and power plants. The Company has expanded its business internationally either directly or through Subsidiaries, associated companies and/or joint ventures. Because of the increased scale and scope of the Company’s international operations, it is subject to additional risks, including risks related to complying with a wide variety of national and local laws, uncertain political and economic environments, government instability, restrictions on the import and export of certain technologies, expropriation or deprivation of assets and multiple and possibly overlapping tax structures. In addition, the Company may face competition in other countries from companies that may have more experience with operations in such countries or with international operations generally. The Company may also face difficulties integrating new facilities in different countries into its existing operations, as well as integrating employees that the Company hires in different countries into its existing corporate culture. If the Company does not effectively manage its foreign operations, the Company’s business and results of operations may be adversely affected.

A delay or failure in the supply of materials, services and finished goods by third parties, or failure to perform by sub-contractors, may adversely affect the Company’s business and results of operation. For its key business operations, the Company relies on third parties for the timely supply of specified raw materials, equipment and maintenance services. Although the Company actively manages these third-party relationships to ensure continuity of timely supplies which meet the required specifications, certain events could result in supplies not being delivered on time or meeting required specifications. Such events could materially adversely affect the Company’s business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations. Furthermore, for certain contracts, the Company employs sub-contractors in relation to specific aspects of the project. Failure by sub-contractors, for any reason, to meet specified completion dates could delay completion of the overall project and could lead to delayed payment and imposition of penalties by customers. In addition, the Company may be liable to pay these penalties due to the insufficiency of performance guarantees in the Company’s agreements with sub-contractors.

Fluctuations in exchange rates between the Rupee, U.S. Dollar, and other currencies may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s operating results

22

Page 23: PRIVATE & CONFIDENTIAL · Web viewThe business is a leading supplier of hydro-processing reactors, ethylene oxide reactors, fluid catalytic cracking reactor regenerator systems, high-pressure

An increasing part of the Company’s revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities are denominated in foreign currencies. Fluctuations in foreign exchange rates could impact the Company’s revenues, assets and liabilities and have an adverse effect on its business, financial condition and results of operations.

Company’s performance may be impacted by its inability to retain talent

The Company is dependent on the expertise of its senior management and skilled employees and its results of operations may be adversely affected by the departure of its senior management and experienced skilled employees or its inability to attract new skilled employees. The Company is dependent on its directors and senior management for setting its strategic direction and managing its business, both of which are crucial to its success. Also, a significant number of its employees are skilled engineers and due to the limited pool of available skilled personnel, the Company faces strong competition to recruit and retain skilled and professionally qualified staff. A number of senior management personnel are expected to retire over the next few years and the success of their replacements cannot be assured. The Company’s continued future success also depends upon its ability to attract, recruit and retain a large group of experienced professionals and staff. The loss of the services of its senior management, including its Directors, or its inability to recruit, train or retain a sufficient number of experienced personnel could have a material adverse effect on its operations and profitability. The Company’s ability to retain experienced staff members as well as senior management will in part depend on its maintaining appropriate staff remuneration and incentive schemes. The ability of the Company to retain experienced staff would also depend on its ability to provide them with opportunities to transfer easily between the Company’s various businesses. The Company cannot be sure that the remuneration and incentive schemes it has in place will be sufficient to retain the services of its senior management and skilled employees.

Changes in technology may render the Company’s current technologies obsolete or require the Company to make substantial capital investments.

The Company’s business spans a wide range of activities and products that are subject to rapid and significant changes in technology. Although the Company strives to keep its technology in accordance with the latest international technological standards, the hydrocarbon, power, switchgear, switchboard, design and other technologies currently employed may become obsolete or subject to competition from new technologies in the future. The cost of implementing new technologies or expanding capacity and allocation of resources to research and development, could be significant and could adversely affect the Company’s results of operations.

The Company’s risk management policies and procedures may not adequately address unidentified or unanticipated risk.

The Company is exposed to various types of market risk, such as interest rate risk, exchange rate risk and commodities price risk, in addition to various forms of operational, legal and regulatory risks. The Company has entered into various hedging transactions in relation to its financial obligations. Factors such as interest rates, the availability and cost of credit, creditworthiness of counterparties and the liquidity of the global financial markets could significantly affect the Company’s financial position. Many of the hedging and other risk management strategies utilised by the Company also involve transactions with financial services counterparties. The failure of these counterparties to settle or the perceived weakness of these counterparties may impair the effectiveness of the Company’s hedging and other risk management strategies. As the Company seeks to expand the scope of its operations, it also faces the risk that it will be unable to develop risk management policies and procedures that are properly designed for those new business areas or to manage the risks associated with the growth of its existing businesses. Inability to develop and implement effective risk management

23

Page 24: PRIVATE & CONFIDENTIAL · Web viewThe business is a leading supplier of hydro-processing reactors, ethylene oxide reactors, fluid catalytic cracking reactor regenerator systems, high-pressure

policies may adversely affect the Company’s business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.

Crystallization of contingent liabilities of the Company may result in adverse results

The Company has certain contingent liabilities, including relating to disputed tax liabilities, and its financial condition and profitability could be adversely affected if any of these contingent liabilities materialise. The Company’s contingent liabilities is disclosed in its audited consolidated financial statements and primarily consist of various disputed tax liabilities, claims against the Company that have not been acknowledged as debts, and corporate guarantees for debt given on behalf of an associate company. While the Company believes that these disputed tax liabilities are not likely to result in material liabilities for the Company, the relevant authorities may determine that the Company is required to settle all or a portion of the disputed tax liabilities. If any of these contingent liabilities materialise, the Company’s profitability may be adversely affected.

Downturn in the infrastructure sector could adversely affect growth prospects for the Company

The private infrastructure development industry in India is still at a relatively early stage of development and is linked to the continued growth of the Indian economy and to the Government’s focus on infrastructure development and expenditure levels in the infrastructure sector. The Company believes that infrastructure is a rapidly growing sector in India and is likely to provide the Company with substantial growth opportunities. However, the development of India’s infrastructure will be dependent on programmes and policies that facilitate and encourage private sector investment in infrastructure. Many of these programmes and policies are evolving and their success will depend on whether they are designed to properly address the issues faced and are effectively implemented. Additionally, the Company believes that these programmes will need continued support from stable and experienced regulatory regimes that not only stimulate and encourage the continued movement of private capital into infrastructure development, but also lead to increased competition, appropriate allocation of risk, transparency, effective dispute resolution and more efficient and cost-effective services to the end consumer. The Company believes that the availability of private capital and the continued growth of the infrastructure development industry is also linked to continued growth of the Indian economy, consumers’ income levels and the extent to which they would be willing to pay or can be induced to pay for infrastructure services. If the central and state governments’ initiatives and regulations in the infrastructure industry do not proceed in the desired direction or if there is a downturn in the macroeconomic environment in India, the Company’s business, its financial performance and the price of the Bonds could be adversely affected.

The Company’s inability to obtain, renew or maintain the statutory and regulatory permits and approvals required to operate its business may have a material adverse effect on its business.

The Company requires certain statutory and regulatory permits and approvals for its business and the businesses carried on by its joint ventures. Laws or regulations in India and other countries in which the Company and/ or its joint ventures operate may require it to obtain licences or permits in order to bid for contracts or otherwise conduct its operations. In some jurisdictions, activities related to construction of its projects may be subject to the prior granting of environmental licences or permits or to prior notification. Additionally, in the future, the Company may be required to renew such permits and approvals and obtain new permits and approvals for any proposed operations. There can be no assurance that the relevant authorities will issue any of such permits or approvals in the time-frame anticipated by the Company or at all. Failure by the Company to renew, maintain or obtain the required permits or approvals may

24

Page 25: PRIVATE & CONFIDENTIAL · Web viewThe business is a leading supplier of hydro-processing reactors, ethylene oxide reactors, fluid catalytic cracking reactor regenerator systems, high-pressure

result in the interruption of its operations and may have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition and results of operations.

The Company may not have adequate insurance coverage.

The Company is generally required to maintain adequate insurance cover under its contracts for manufacturing, infrastructure works. However, the insurance cover that the Company obtains may not be sufficient to protect it from all losses it may sustain. Losses suffered due to inadequate insurance cover may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.

D. A brief history of the issuer since its incorporation:

i. History of the Issuer:

The Issuer was formed as a partnership in 1938 by Henning Holck-Larsen and Soren Kristian Toubro, two Danish engineers who came to India as representatives of F.L. Smidth & Co. A/S. The partnership venture was subsequently incorporated as a company in 1946.

The Issuer’s business originally consisted of fabrication. The Issuer then entered into the switchgear business. Entry into the construction business followed through a subsidiary which was merged with the Issuer in 1984. In the early 1960s, the Issuer commenced its valves and undercarriage manufacturing businesses. The Issuer’s heavy fabrication facilities were substantially expanded in 1968. The Issuer commenced manufacture of earth-moving equipment in 1976 and entered into the cement business in the early 1980s. In 1987, the Issuer established a fabrication facility and open yard on the waterfront at Hazira, which has enhanced its ability to fabricate and transport large structures. In the 1990s, the Issuer entered into the EPC business and formed engineering joint ventures such as L&T Chiyoda Limited for hydrocarbon engineering in the mid- and downstream sectors and L&T-Sargent & Lundy Limited for the power sector.

In 1994, the Issuer set up L&T Finance to finance construction equipment manufactured by the Issuer and offer other financial products. In 1996, the Issuer set up L&T Infotech to further diversify its portfolio into information technology services. In 2015, the Issuer transferred its IES business to L&T technology Services Limited by way of slump sale. The cement business of the Issuer was demerged into UltraTech Cement Limited in 2004. In order to focus its strategy on key businesses including engineering, construction and technology, the Issuer discontinued its metal closures business in 2003 and sold its glass container business in 2005. The Issuer also divested its stake in its tractor manufacturing business (operated by L&T-John Deere Private Limited) and in its dairy plant manufacturing business (operated by L&T-Niro Limited) to its respective joint venture partners in 2005. In 2006, the Issuer inducted financial partners with strategic capabilities into L&TIDPL (its holding company for developmental projects) for a 21.6% stake in that company. To give impetus to the Issuer’s ventures in the fast-growing urban infrastructure business, L&T Urban Infrastructure Limited, or L&TUIL, was formed as a subsidiary of L&TIDPL in the same year. Shortly thereafter, strategic and financial partners acquired a 25% stake in L&TUIL.

Between 2004 and 2006, the Issuer expanded its electrical products capabilities by acquiring Datar Switchgear Limited, entered into a joint venture with upstream engineering company, Valdel Corporation Private Limited (the Issuer increased its stake in the joint venture in 2007), acquired a niche technology company, Spectrum Infotech Private Limited, and acquired a controlling stake in International Seaport Dredging Limited from Dredging International.

In 2007, the Issuer expanded its financial services business by setting up L&T Infrastructure Finance Company Limited to finance infrastructure development

25

Page 26: PRIVATE & CONFIDENTIAL · Web viewThe business is a leading supplier of hydro-processing reactors, ethylene oxide reactors, fluid catalytic cracking reactor regenerator systems, high-pressure

projects. In 2009, the Issuer acquired an asset management company and took steps to commence general insurance business.

Over the past few years, the Issuer has been expanding its manufacturing facilities at Hazira, Mysore and Ahmednagar, and setting up new manufacturing facilities at Coimbatore, Talegaon and Navi Mumbai and design and engineering centres at Faridabad, Vadodara, and in the United Arab Emirates. The Issuer has expanded its production base overseas, setting up companies to manufacture switchgears, valves and rubber processing machinery in China and switchboards in Saudi Arabia. The Issuer has also set up a manufacturing facility for control and automation in the United Arab Emirates and a modular fabrication yard (“MFY”) in Oman. In addition, it is setting up a heavy engineering facility adjacent to the MFY.

The Issuer has ventured into new businesses, seeking to leverage its engineering and manufacturing strengths. It has commenced shipbuilding at its Hazira facility and has set up a new shipyard-cum-port at Katupalli in South India under a subsidiary L&T Shipbuilding Ltd, which has commenced operations recently. This subsidiary has also tied up with Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Ltd for technological support for construction of commercial vessels. Recently, L&T bought back 3% held by TIDCO in L&T Shipbuilding to become a 100% shareholder in L&T Shipbuilding.

Issuer, through its separate joint ventures with Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Ltd, has started manufacturing boilers and turbine generators with supercritical technology. To complement its existing oil and gas business, the Issuer has entered into a joint venture with a Malaysian group, that owns and operates a specialized vessel for deep sea pipe laying and platform installation, and a joint venture with Gulf Interstate Engineering USA which carries out design engineering of cross country pipelines. The Issuer has also entered into a joint venture for defence electronics, and has signed memoranda of understanding with global majors for opportunities in the nuclear power sector and the defence sector. Further, the Issuer has, through its international subsidiary, acquired TAMCO Corporate Holding (“Tamco”), which provided the Issuer with an entry into the medium voltage switchgear segment in Malaysia, Indonesia and Australia.

The Issuer has also made a foray into the railways sector and has won, amongst others, India’s first monorail project in Mumbai. To strengthen its heavy engineering capabilities, the Issuer has set up a facility for manufacturing heavy forgings for the nuclear, hydrocarbon and other sectors, in a joint venture with the Nuclear Power Corporation of India.

Further to capitalize on opportunities in the Indian infrastructure growth story, the Issuer has built a portfolio of development projects, focusing on roads, ports, power and urban infrastructure. In the last few years, it has taken up development of a metro system as well.

The Issuer has divested its non-core businesses in glass, tractor, dairy plant manufacturing, ready-mix concrete and petroleum dispensing pumps in order to streamline and focus on its core business. It has also sold its minority stake in UltraTech Cement Limited, and reduced its stake to minority in International Seaport Dredging Limited. In 2011 the Issuer has sold its stake in L&T-CASE Equipment Private Limited to its JV partner CNH Global NV.

In 2012, the Issuer completed acquisition of Audco India Limited and announced stake purchase of Komatsu’s 50% stake in L&T-Komatsu Limited. These acquisitions will help the Issuer grow its valve business globally & consolidate its leadership position in construction & mining equipment business respectively. It has also acquired the partner’s 50% stake in the valves manufacturing subsidiary. Recently, the land being used by L&T Valves Ltd. but owned by L&T Ltd. has been demerged into L&T Valves Ltd.

The Issuer has completed an internal reorganisation where complementary business units have been organised under vertically integrated businesses known as ‘independent companies’ (“ICs”). While these ICs are not necessarily separate legal

26

Page 27: PRIVATE & CONFIDENTIAL · Web viewThe business is a leading supplier of hydro-processing reactors, ethylene oxide reactors, fluid catalytic cracking reactor regenerator systems, high-pressure

entities, they have their own internal boards and embedded shared service functions, such as human resources, resource support, and finance and accounts, to enable self-sufficiency and better customer reach. The Issuer believes that the new structure will open up opportunities for leadership development, provide a platform for nurturing internal resources, and is also expected to provide focus to businesses within each IC. The Hydrocarbon business has been demerged from the parent company into a separate subsidiary, L&T Hydrocarbon Engineering Ltd. Also, the Technology services business has been transferred from the parent company to a separate company, L&T Technology Services Ltd. Due to the increased focus on Water Management and Digitalization initiatives of the Government, the company has created separate ICs called Water and Effluent Treatment (WET) and Smart World and Communications IC (SWC). Furthermore, with the increased focus on Make in India initiatives of the Govt in the Defence segment, the Company carved out its Defence and Aerospace Business as a separate vertical from Heavy Engineering IC.

As part of the reorganization drive, the Issuer also consolidated its urban infrastructure business under L&T Realty Pvt. Ltd. and has transferred the business of L&T UIL to it from L&T IDPL. A large part of the stakes held by strategic and financial partners in the development projects business was bought back. Now, to support the next phase of investment into concessions business, a financial partner is being brought into L&T IDPL. Now, to support the next phase of investment into concessions business, Canadian Pension Fund (CPPIB) has been brought into L&T IDPL. The Company has announced sale of its Electrical and Automation business to Schneider Electric, which is awaiting closing formalities to now be completed.

As part of its strategy to grow the revenue and profit of its asset light services business portfolio, the Issuer has acquired 60.59% of the Equity Share Capital in Mindtree Limited for a total consideration of approximately Rs.10,000 Crore. Refer the SEBI website at the following link for further details, including the risks associated with the acquisition (https://www.sebi.gov.in/filings/takeovers/mar-2019/mindtree-limited_42436.html).

The Issuer has consistently won accolades in business leadership, innovation, corporate governance, corporate social responsibility and reporting, financial management, etc, in India and abroad.

The Issuer released its maiden “Corporate Sustainability Report” in 2008 and followed it with annual releases thereafter. The Company follows Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) Sustainability Reporting Standards (SRS). From 2018, the sustainability report was transformed into an Integrated Report (as per International Integrated Reporting Council framework). The Relevant parameters in the Sustainability Reports and Integrated Report are externally assured and GRI Checked with highest level of non-financial disclosures in the public domain since 2008.

The Issuer released its maiden “Corporate Sustainability Report” in 2008 and followed it with annual releases thereafter. This report was converted into an Integrated Report in 2015. The Company now has the highest level of non-financial disclosures as required under the Global Reporting Initiative.

(g) For allotment of Debentures, the address, nomination details and other details of the applicant as registered with his/her DP shall be used for all correspondence with the applicant.

(h) The redemption amount or other benefits would be paid to those Debenture Holders whose names appear on the list of beneficial owners maintained by the R&T Agent as on the Record Date.

In the event of winding up of a Debenture Holder (being a company), the Issuer will recognise the executor or administrator or legal representative (being the liquidator) of the Debenture Holder appointed by a competent court having title to the Debentures provided that such person obtains a probate or letter of administration or other legal representation, as the case may be, from a court in India having jurisdiction over the matter.

The Issuer may, in its absolute discretion, where it thinks fit, dispense with production of such legal representation, in order to recognise any person as being entitled to the Debenture(s) standing in the name of the concerned Debenture Holder on the production of sufficient documentary proof and an indemnity. Provided that the Issuer shall have the option of depositing the amounts due to any such Debenture Holder in an escrow account maintained by it

56

Page 57: PRIVATE & CONFIDENTIAL · Web viewThe business is a leading supplier of hydro-processing reactors, ethylene oxide reactors, fluid catalytic cracking reactor regenerator systems, high-pressure

Tax exemption certificate / declaration of non-deduction of tax at source on interest on application money, should be submitted along with the Application Form. Failure to comply with the above shall entitle the Company to deduct tax at source as may be advised to it.

1.22 Deemed Date of Allotment
