year 2008-09 came in at 7.6%, lower than the previous quarters growth of 7.9% and, in fact, the lowest since 2004-05. There has been a slowdown across all sectors. Industry growth decelerated to 6.1% in the second quarter of the financial year 2008-09 vis--vis 9.4% in the corresponding quarter of the previous year. This was primarily on account of manufacturing sector growth, which dipped sharply to 5.0% in the second quarter of financial year 2008-09 as compared to 9.2% for in the corresponding previous year. For Pharmaceutical Industry, this slowdown may result in greater use of low cost generics. The Government is also increasing its commitment towards extending healthcare services for the poor and underprivileged. In the coming two years, the Government plans to double the public healthcare expenditure in areas such as preventive care, improving access to quality healthcare for the rural population and investing in healthcare delivery infrastructure. A chain of chemist shops selling medicines at affordable prices is being set up across the country to improve access to the underprivileged population.

disposable incomes, better diagnosis, improved healthcare infrastructure and increasing penetration of patented products. Pharmaceutical companies will also continue to grow through acquisitions, joint ventures, leveraging low operational costs and outsourcing. Outlook and Implications Today, the Indian pharmaceutical industry stands at a crossroad. The introduction of product patents may result in an increase in R&D investments by multinational companies. Leading domestic manufacturers have also stepped up levels of investment in R&D, but are wary of compromising the financial stability of their core businesses resulting in more and more companies spinning off R&D divisions. However, ambiguity surrounding issues such as the scope of patentability, compulsory licensing, recent economic slowdown, pre-grant opposition and data protection continue to deter large scale foreign investments that can accelerate growth of the Industry. Tighter controls on pricing envisioned in the New Drug Policy (under discussion) threaten to reduce margins and impact business. However, factors such as rising prevalence of lifestyle related diseases coupled with improving health awareness and purchasing power, will continue to drive growth in the pharmaceutical market. Notable changes occurring on the healthcare provider landscape in India include a growing presence of corporate hospitals and an expansion of retail outlets. These developments will result in greater access to treatment facilities and medicines. Medical tourism that was fuelling the growth of corporate hospitals has slowed down on account of the global economic meltdown.

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS BUSINESS SEGMENT: PHARMACEUTICALS DIVISION Performance 2008 Your Company has a market share of 2.2%, and is currently ranked 14th (ORG-IMS MAT Dec. 2008) after the divestment of 4 brands of the Consumer Health portfolio to M/s. Johnson & Johnson Ltd. In the last few years, we have consolidated our

brands, developed a strategic focus when it comes to customer engagement and building new channels for expanding our business. Our current portfolio includes some of Indias best known brands within the pharmaceutical industry. These brands have stood the test of time and even today are growing from strength to strength. Dedicated focus has been established on specific brands to ensure more of our brands that have the potential to perform, are given the opportunity to grow in the market. In addition, your Company has increased focus on launching new brands. Four new brands were launched in 2008 viz., Champix, Cyclokapron, Acupil and Trulimax. A new indication of Lyrica in Fibromyalgia was also launched. Focus on Institutional and Retail sales has also considerably increased. Marketing & Medical Initiatives Your Companys commitment to develop and consolidate strong relationships with customers has continued during 2008 with the launch of several initiatives. One such initiative was PROTECT (PRevent cOmplicaTions and dEath Caused by hyperTension) which aimed to increase awareness about the diagnosis and management of hypertension at an early stage to prevent long term morbidity and mortality. A number of symposia were conducted across India, where opinion leaders addressed leading primary care physicians. The aim of this event was to increase awareness about the importance of early diagnosis and treatment of cardiovascular diseases. This initiative was successfully rolled out at the zonal level and will soon be disseminated to the district level. Another innovative initiative to spread awareness about the dangers of smoking amongst youth was launched in partnership with a popular music station Red FM. The initiative called Pfizer Presents Red FM Quit Smoking Express was launched on World No Tobacco Day on May 25, 2008.

Your Company won prestigious awards for its continued pursuit of launching value added programs / services, science based education and gaining leadership position in represented markets. In its quest to become the market leader and the most prescribed brand in the Vitamins market, Becosules has scaled greater heights in the year 2008. Becosules won the Frost and Sullivan Brand Strategy Development Award in the Indian Dietary Supplement Category for the Frost & Sullivan Best Practices Awards that recognizes companies in a variety of regional and global markets for demonstrating outstanding achievement and superior performance in areas such as leadership, technology innovation, customer service, and strategic product development. Field Operations Your Company has taken several well defined strategic steps to ensure complete alignment of the sales and marketing activities resulting in higher productivity per person, higher returns per input and best in class performance at all levels. One such initiative was Efficiency and Effectiveness (EnE). Initiated in 2007, it was rolled out across the country in phases. The Field Force reporting tool OPTIMA was relaunched with new features and was rolled out to the entire sales force across the country. This tool will facilitate better planning, execution and reporting thereby giving the sales force a competitive advantage, improving their productivity and improving customer focus. Project Sanjeevani, another initiative of your Company seeks to expand the companys reach to Tier II cities and beyond for the mature portfolio, thus extending the product life cycle of these well known brands. Launched in 2007, the project has been rolled out across the country. A cross functional initiative to identify opportunities and chalk out strategies to aggressively enter the institutional segment and increase your Companys presence in this ever growing segment is currently underway. Your Company has rolled out the Retail Initiative across four states, to improve coverage of the ever growing retail chemist segment and increase sales in uncovered markets. BUSINESS SEGMENT: ANIMAL HEALTH DIVISION India has one of the largest livestock populations in the world, contributing 4% to GDP and 27% to agricultural GDP. The Indian animal health market is estimated to be growing at 6% per annum with dairy, poultry and companion animal being the major business segments and accounting for 95% of the animal health industry. India continues to maintain its position as the largest producer of milk in the world, 4th largest producer of eggs and 5th largest broiler producer. There is a direct correlation between agricultural growth and animal health industry. Milk is the largest contributor to agricultural GDP providing a stable stream of income to millions of small farmers. The governments focus on improving the rural economy coupled with the implementation of national dairy plan augurs well for your Company. Though we are witnessing the consolidation of the dairy industry, the speed of change has 9

been slow and a large quantity of milk continues to be supplied by backyard farms. Per capita poultry meat consumption has also seen an increase in the last decade from less than 500 gms in 1991 to almost 2 kg in 2006 with a CAGR of 10%. With the economic growth, companion animal business has grown rapidly over the last decade and has emerged as the fastest growing segment in animal health business. Pfizer Animal Health division has continued its strong performance in 2008, growing faster than the market (driven by new products), double digit growth of key brands and improved operational efficiencies leading to a strong financial performance. Your Company has launched three new brands in the year under review viz., CIDR, Vitamix and Neftin-T. A favourable external environment coupled with internal preparedness to take advantage of the opportunity gives us the confidence for the future. Dairy Business The Indian dairy population and milk production continues to be highest in the world. It is envisaged that the milk production will continue to grow by 4% per annum over the next decade. Major issues facing the dairy industry are, per animal productivity, dependence on agrarian economy, unorganized nature of the customer base limiting the reach and high price sensitivity. The shift towards organized dairy farms with increased holding per farm has been gradual but is an important directional change which will lead to better management practices and productivity. Our dairy business is well positioned to take advantage of the opportunity with a well trained field force, increased reach and presence in all major product segments viz., parasiticide, antiinfectives, nutritionals and reproductives. Poultry Business A large segment of Indian poultry industry is in the organized sector with a couple of national players vertically integrated across the value chain. The poultry industry was adversely affected by the Avian Influenza in the early part of the year followed by higher input costs but the long term future looks promising as indicated by a high rate of growth in poultry meat consumption in India. Pfizer poultry teams conscious effort to focus on bio security has paid rich dividends and we plan to scale up our success. Companion Animal Business The Companion Animal (CA) business has witnessed a positive impact of GDP growth and has grown by 20% per annum. The growth is fuelled by higher disposable income and increasing awareness led by effective campaigns by pet food companies. The Pfizer CA team has maintained its leading position in the market and has consolidated its position in the polyvalent bios 10

segment. We are well positioned to seize the opportunity in the CA business by expanding our product portfolio and maintaining our position in polyvalent bios segment. Our focus by species coupled with innovative marketing strategies was the performance driver that led to recognition in the Asia Pacific region for an outstanding performance in 2008. BUSINESS SEGMENT: SERVICES MEDICAL & RESEARCH DIVISION The Pfizer India Medical & Research Division is responsible for all scientific support for the Pfizer portfolio of products. This division is responsible for, regulatory and medical support to Pfizers operations in India. The group is organized under the following four departments: Medical Affairs & Research, Clinical Research, Regulatory Affairs, and Quality Standards and Training. Medical Affairs & Research Medical Affairs & Research (MAR) Team of 17 Medical doctors governs the medical conscience. The team consists of product physicians and medical research specialists and is responsible for scientific communications with various stakeholders including internal (marketing & sales) and external (physicians, medical institutes, professional medical associations). These communications range from product training of sales force, new product evaluations, scientific presentations to medical community, scientific support for investigator initiated research, medical information, design of local clinical programs and scientific engagements with physicians. The medical team is responsible for ensuring compliance of promotional practices to international and local industry as well as regulatory requirements. The MAR team also provides medical support to regulatory registration as well as safety review and labeling activities Notable contributions have been the development and dissemination of information on the value of our medicines emphasizing the uniqueness of our products. As part of the Pfizer Education And Research League (PEARL), nine workshops on clinical research and Continuing Medical Education (CME) topics have been conducted at key institutes. The MAR team has also commenced the partnership for health initiative by partnering with NGOs, thought leaders and public health institutions to identify collaborative opportunities in public health. Clinical Research The Clinical Research group is responsible for all clinical research conducted by the Company within the country. The Clinical Research group comprises of three organizational segments: Study Management; India Regional Monitoring Group; and Support Services. About four-fifths of the clinical research portfolio relates to phase II and phase III studies executed for Pfizer Global Research and Development (PGRD) worldwide development teams while the rest are phase IIIb, phase IV comparative, post-marketing surveillance and other studies to

support local registration, launch and marketing. Your Company has contributed greatly to the development of clinical research in the country and holds a position of leadership in this area. Initiatives such as the establishment of preferred research centers (at Nizams Institute of Medical Sciences and Amrita Institute of Medical Sciences) are key to Pfizers commitment to develop research capacity. Your Company has partnered with other pharmaceutical companies, contract research organizations and investigators through the Indian Society for Clinical Research (ISCR) a professional society aimed at raising the standards of clinical research in the country as well as Academy for Clinical Excellence. Regulatory Affairs Regulatory Affairs is responsible for registration of new products, obtaining clinical trial approvals, regulatory clearance of imports, safety reporting, labeling, fulfiling regulatory and safety obligations. Apart from responsibilities relating to the Indian market, the Regulatory Affairs group is also responsible for support to operations and product commercialization in neighboring countries including Nepal, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka. Quality Standards & Training (QST) The QST is responsible for ensuring quality across all medical functions through coordination of training roll outs as well as periodic reviews of activities of the three functions.

processes and the final appraisal rating and payout) were revisited and reviewed extensively by HR and the leadership team. Goal alignment workshops were held for all business divisions. These workshops had the involvement and support of other divisions in order to get the necessary alignment required to meet the objectives. Performance management workshops were held to reinforce the understanding and philosophy of the performance management process. A key area identified for improvement was the skill in performance coaching and counseling. Skill enhancement workshops by an external faculty were conducted for people managers in the organization. Your Company has been successful in bringing about a more normally distributed performance rating across the organization, which focuses on differentiating between High and Low Performance levels. Talent Planning Process The Leadership Team spent considerable time in reviewing profiles of colleagues in the organization and identified talent in three pipelines viz., strategic, functional and execution. Colleagues from the talent pool are involved in the high level projects identified by the organization. Great emphasis was placed on formulating Individual Developmental Plans. Management development programs by premier institutions (like the Indian Institute of Management, Ahmedabad and Narsee Monjee Institute of Management Studies, Mumbai) in the country were conducted to hone our colleagues skills and knowledge. Differential compensation was given to colleagues in the talent pool (colleagues identified as key performers and high potential across the organization) and these colleagues received an additional payout towards their performance bonus. This has resulted in clear differentiation of talent and impacted colleagues directly. This is a shift from mere succession planning / submissions, to a dialogue based review to identify talent across all divisions within Pfizer India. Since 2007, we have focused on inducting new talent (Management Trainees) sourced from well-respected Indian business schools and integrating them into critical projects and roles. Their development has been supported by a structured one-year programme (Assignments, Exposure and Mentoring). Reward and Recognition The Reward and Recognition initiative with four distinct programmes was developed and rolled out in 2006 and we have consequently run this cycle annually. It was important that extraordinary contributions by colleagues should be recognized and rewarded in a very distinct manner. These contributions are linked to predetermined organizational goals and their impact on business performance. In the beginning of 2008, we had an R & R Nite to felicitate such colleagues. 11

HUMAN RESOURCES DIVISION The Human Resources (HR) division played a key role during 2008 to drive the aspirational and transformational goals across the organization. The pillars for people processes revolve around two critical imperatives viz., building a high performance culture and best in class talent. The present employee strength in the organization stands at 1950. During 2008 the focus was on the following initiatives: Performance Management System The Performance Management process has been used as a strong lever to change the performance culture in the organization. All the key areas (i.e., objective setting process, review mechanisms, rating distribution, coaching and counseling

The Upjohn Award process, run by Pfizer Inc., USA, is used to recognize and reward the Value Champions in the organization. This initiative helps in creating a value driven culture across the organization. This year three colleagues received the Upjohn Award. In addition to the annual recognition, we also have monthly recognition programs such as Pfish, a simple and effective way to transmit and rollout peer appreciation amongst colleagues. This online system has generated a lot of enthusiasm. Lucky winners who have appreciated colleagues are picked in a draw and felicitated. On an overall basis, the entire Reward and Recognition program has had a very positive impact on Pfizer India and will continue to be a strong tool to build colleague engagement. Colleague Engagement This was the second year of the Pfizer Engagement Survey and there was a marked improvement in the scores obtained. The results of last years Pfizer Engagement Survey reinforced our need to make engaging each other an urgent and enduring priority. Teams were encouraged to review the results and to act on the opportunities identified to improve engagement. Improving engagement is not a one-time event at Pfizer India its an enduring priority. DIWA (Diversity through Women Allies) Recent studies and industry experience demonstrate that there is a distinct difference in woman leaders and that they bring a complimentary set of skills. Some of these being multitasking, creativity in problem solving, a diverse viewpoint, eye for detail, the ability to facilitate consensus and bringing people together. It is in recognizing this that Pfizer India launched DIWA an initiative that aims to increase the number of women colleagues through recruitment and retention initiatives while providing opportunities to nurture and groom women colleagues for leadership roles. As part of this initiative various forums were created online where colleagues could exchange ideas and share views. A workshop was also held to engage women colleagues on what the organization could do to make Pfizer India a better working place for women. PeopleSoft PeopleSoft, a central database repository for all Pfizer processes, is picked up by both global as well as local systems/processes. A new version of PeopleSoft has been implemented this year with enhanced capabilities and applications. A lot of focus is given to ensure the data integrity in the PeopleSoft system as it provides data for all people processes in the organization. Field Force As part of the sourcing strategy Pfizer made its presence felt in some of the elite pharmacy colleges. In the Pharma division 12

approximately 17% of the recruitment was through campus placements. In view of this success, campus recruitment will be one of the sourcing strategies for the Field Force. In order to address retention issues in the field, the Retention Project was launched with a focus on addressing the attrition and retention challenges in the Field. There were a number of initiatives which were planned and implemented by the Team resulting in a strong downward trend in attrition. This year many career opportunities were provided to the Field Force through promotions in First Line and Second Line Managerial positions. These processes were well received by the Field Force. Employee Relations The overall Employee Relations environment was healthy and worked well towards aligning colleagues across the organization, with the Companys business goals and mission. CORPORATE AFFAIRS Your Company has made consistent efforts to create a favourable policy regime for a business environment conducive to new products and markets across the country. This promotes government policies that encourage innovation and ensure Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) enforcement. Your Company and industry associations have held several meetings with concerned ministries for sensitization and continuous dialogue leading to positive engagement. In view of the governments policies that propose to increase the span of price control, your Company along with industry associations have undertaken a series of meetings with the government to present your Companys perspective on the matter. The government has great concern on securing access to medicines for the masses. There is a continuous dialogue between the industry and the government for developing a sustainable model on pricing and access. Your Company continues to work through industry associations to ensure that the spirit of the law is upheld and transparent processes and procedures are implemented to interpret the law. The Corporate Communications department has provided support to the colleague engagement initiatives in the organisation. They have partnered with marketing and medical teams to drive campaigns on awareness of various diseases or conditions such as Erectile Dysfunction and Quit Smoking initiative. INTERNAL CONTROL SYSTEMS AND THEIR ADEQUACY Your Company has clearly laid down policies, guidelines and procedures that form part of internal control systems, which provide for automatic checks and balances. Your Company has maintained a proper and adequate system of internal controls. This is to ensure that all assets are safeguarded and protected against loss from unauthorized use or disposition, and that

transactions are authorized, recorded and reported diligently. Your Companys internal control systems are commensurate with the nature and size of its business operations. An extensive program of Risk Assurance further supplements the Companys internal control systems. This is done by the Risk Assurance Department, which is supported by independent firms of chartered accountants, who review the effectiveness and efficiency of these systems and procedures. The management periodically reviews reports of internal auditors. All significant Internal Audit observations and follow-up actions thereon are brought to the notice of the Audit Committee of the Board and corrective steps recommended for implementation. The Audit Committee of the Board addresses significant issues raised by the Risk Assurance Department, Cost Auditors and Statutory Auditors. Your Company has a well defined Standard Operating Procedure for identifying and mitigating risks across all divisions of the Company. The Company periodically identifies all risks, prioritizes the major risks and develops appropriate plans for its mitigation. The senior management has ownership of the major risks, its management and mitigation plans. The internal control system is designed to ensure that all financial and other records are reliable for preparing financial statements and other data, and for maintaining accountability of assets. MANUFACTURING OPERATIONS Pfizer Global Manufacturing (PGM) will continue to forge ahead to accomplish our Mission of being the worlds leading supply organization and an innovative and powerful competitive advantage for Pfizer. In line with our Mission Statement, PGM India is committed to being a value-driven competitive advantage for Pfizer. With its passion for Quality, a strong customer focus and a foundation based on our vision and mission elements that is fundamental to our organization, PGM India continually strives to create a work environment based on mutual respect, open and candid communication and commitment to shared values, aligning across Pfizer in its quest for a better quality of life and healthcare to the community. PGM Indias manufacturing facility is located at Thane on the outskirts of Mumbai and additionally outsources requirements through contract manufacturers located in other parts of the country. Specialized products viz., Minipress XL, Vfend, Viagra, Caduet, Lyrica, Champix, Cyclokapron for human health and Dectomax, canine vaccines for Animal Health business are imported from Global Pfizer sites. The manufacturing facility at Thane produces non sterile formulations of oral liquids, tablets and capsules. The plant had been upgraded to be current with cGMP and has WHO certification. Alternative sources of supply from locally approved

Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient (API) manufacturers and Pfizer audited sources has ensured quality supplies. PGM India also has a pharmaceutical development role, as the demand for India specific formulations needs to be fulfilled on a continuous basis. These are developed as line extensions and new products at the Product Development Laboratory (PRD) at Thane Plant. Recently, as an exercise in local import substitution and subsequent global sourcing, formulation stability studies were successfully completed with locally manufactured Gemfibrozil, Clarithromycin and Azithromycin (Trulimax). PGM India has had an impressive track record of performance, achieving operational and manufacturing efficiencies coupled with process capabilities leveraging Global initiatives viz. Right First Time (RFT), Process Analytical Technology (PAT) and effective process improvement initiatives such as Kaizens. The RFT phenomena has the potential to transform and have a dramatic impact on quality, assurance of regulatory compliance, customer service and cost improvement, while significantly improving the job satisfaction for PGM colleagues, thereby establishing PGM as the benchmark and taking us Beyond # 1. RFT has now become an inseparable part of PGM India and is now a way of life, yielding cost improvements with sustained product quality and process robustness resulting in elimination of non value added activities throughout the process. Colleagues across various functions have been exposed to programmes ranging from orientation to an intensive green belt and a much extensive black belt training. A number of site specific projects on the anvil are expected to yield further cost savings. Strategic sourcing, exports and competitive procurement has also led to significant product cost reductions. This has proved to be a financial advantage to our business for some Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (APIs). Our key strengths emphasize employee productivity and continuous efficiency improvements as well as optimized inventories, short cycle times and consistently high customer services levels; simultaneously achieving inventory reduction goals. Quality people and products has always been part of the Pfizer legacy. PGM has always recognized Quality as a Value, defining it as: our customers and regulators hold us in the highest regard for the quality of our products, operations and people. PGM India ensures compliance with the highest standards of quality while at the same time maintaining a competitive edge with concurrent reduction in product costs achieved through continuous improvement in efficiency and productivity. PGM India has also demonstrated commitment to the Pfizer value Community by consistently and proactively organizing various environmental, social and health related initiatives in and around our Thane site. Community outreach programs were conducted 13

involving several schools in the vicinity on environment. A vigorous tree plantation program has contributed to enhanced levels of environment protection awareness in the community. A recent innovation was the eco-friendly Bagasse-Briquette firing system for the plant boiler, replacing the conventional furnace oil system. This is cited as a technological innovation and is a demonstration of PGM Indias commitment to the environment as there has been a significant reduction in atmospheric emissions. The usage of Bagasse as an alternate source of Boiler fuel has enabled the site to secure the coveted Carbon Credits. The use of Bagasse (sugarcane residue) as a fuel source has a far reaching social implication in terms of generating job opportunities in rural areas. The Thane manufacturing site successfully sustained ISO 14001:2004 and OHSAS 18001:2007 for the year 2007- 2008 by maintaining a high standard of EHS (Environment Health & Safety) performance that went beyond mere compliance. Several noteworthy achievements were recorded by the site: No LTI (Lost Time Incidents) during the entire year which translates to safe work practices being followed by the entire work force; No accountable emissions / pollutants were released to the atmosphere or surroundings; Strict adherence and high level compliance by all employees at the site on all aspects of EHS legislations; Continuous reviews and coaching programs were conducted by site colleagues to inculcate and nurture EHS Culture at all external contract manufacturing sites; Change in Thane site consent category recorded by the Maharashtra Pollution Control Board (MPCB) from category Red to category Orange which means from High risk to Medium risk. PGM India continues to march ahead in its endeavour to make a qualitative difference to the healthcare of the community by producing products of the highest quality and with the speed and flexibility to meet the needs of our business partners with good levels of customer satisfaction. PGM remains committed to being a lean and agile organization that proactively embraces change. As we enter 2009, we will look to synergize our efforts to maximize and sustain operational excellence.

Capital expenditure on research and development is capitalised as fixed assets and depreciated in accordance with the depreciation policy of the Company. Impairment of Assets In accordance with Accounting Standard 28 (AS 28) on Impairment of Assets where there is an indication of impairment of the Companys assets, the carrying amounts of the Companys assets are reviewed at each balance sheet date to determine whether there is any impairment. The recoverable amount of the assets (or where applicable that of the cash generating unit to which the asset belongs) is estimated at the higher of its net selling price and its value in use. Value in use is the present value of estimated future cash flows expected to arise from the continuing use of the assets and from its disposal at the end of its useful life. An impairment loss is recognised whenever the carrying amount of an asset or a cash-generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount. Impairment loss is recognized in the Profit and Loss Account. (d) Foreign Currency Transactions Transactions in foreign exchange are accounted for at the standard exchange rates as determined by the Company on a monthly basis. The exchange differences arising on foreign exchange transactions settled during the year are recognized in the Profit and Loss Account of the year. Monetary assets and liabilities in foreign exchange, which are outstanding as at the year end, are translated at year end at the closing exchange rate and the resultant exchange differences are recognized in the Profit and Loss Account. The premium or discount on forward exchange contracts is amortized on a straight line method over the period of the contracts. (e) Investments Long-term investments are stated at cost less any other than temporary diminution in value, determined separately for each individual investment. (f) Inventories Raw materials, work-in-process, finished goods and packing materials are valued at the lower of weighted average cost and net realizable value. Cost of finished goods and work-in-process includes cost of materials, direct labour and an appropriate portion of overheads. Stores and maintenance spares are valued at average cost. The net realizable value of work-in-process is determined with reference to the selling price of related finished goods. Raw materials and other supplies held for use in production of inventories are not written down below cost except in cases where material prices have declined, and it is estimated that the cost of the finished products will exceed their net realizable value. Finished goods expiring within 90 days (near-expiry inventory) as at the balance sheet date have been fully provided for. (g) Samples Physicians samples are valued at standard cost, which approximates actual cost. (h) Revenue Recognition Revenue from sale of goods is recognised when significant risks and rewards of ownership are transferred to the customers. Sales are net of sales returns and trade discounts. Revenue from services is recognized as and when services are rendered and related costs are incurred, in accordance with the terms of the specific contracts. Interest income is recognised on time proportionate basis. (i) Employee Benefits Short-term employee benefits: All employee benefits payable wholly within twelve months of rendering the service are classified as short-term employee benefits.

Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended 30th November, 2008
amount of short-term employee benefits expected to be paid in exchange for the services rendered by employees is recognized as an expense during the period. Long term employee benefits: i) Defined contribution plan: The Companys contribution towards employees Super Annuation Plan is recognized as an expense during the period. ii) Defined benefit plans: Provident Fund: Provident Fund contributions are made to a Trust administered by the Trustees. Trust makes investments and is settling members claims. Interest payable to the members shall not be at a rate lower than the statutory rate. Liability is recognized for any shortfall in the Plan assets vis--vis actuarially determined liability of the Fund obligation. Gratuity Plan: The Companys gratuity benefit scheme is a defined benefit plan. The Companys net obligation in respect of the gratuity benefit scheme is calculated by estimating the amount of future benefit that employees have earned in return for their service in the current and prior periods; that benefit is discounted to determine its present value, and the fair value of any plan assets is deducted. The present value of the obligation under such defined benefit plan is determined based on actuarial valuation using the Projected Unit Credit Method, which recognizes each period of service as giving rise to additional unit of employee benefit entitlement and measures each unit separately to build up the final obligation. The obligation is measured at the present value of the estimated future cash flows. The discount rates used for determining the present value of the obligation under defined benefit plan, are based on the market yields on Government securities as at the balance sheet date. Actuarial gains and losses are recognized immediately in the Profit and Loss Account. iii) Other Long-term employment benefits: Compensated absences which are not expected to occur within twelve months after the end of the period in which the employee renders the related services are recognized as a liability at the present value of the defined benefit obligation at the balance sheet date. The discount rates used for determining the present value of the obligation under defined benefit plan, are based on the market yields on Government securities as at the balance sheet date. (j) Leases Lease rentals under an operating lease, are recognized as an expense in the statement of Profit and Loss Account on a straight line basis over the lease term. (k) Voluntary Retirement Scheme (VRS) Liability under the VRS is accrued on the acceptance of the applications of the employees under the VRS scheme issued by the Company. Compensation paid in the earlier years is charged to the Profit and Loss Account over a period of five years. Compensation paid during the current year and previous year under the VRS is charged to the Profit and Loss Account. Taxation Income tax expense comprises current tax, deferred tax charge or credit and fringe benefits tax. Provision for current tax is based on the results for the year ended 30th November, 2008, in accordance with the provisions of the Income Tax Act, 1961. The final tax liability will be determined on the basis of the operations for the year 1st April, 2008 to 31st March, 2009, being the tax year of the Company. The deferred tax charge or credit is recognized using substantially enacted rates. In the case of unabsorbed depreciation or carried forward losses, deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent there is virtual certainty of realisation of such assets. Other deferred tax assets are recognized only to the extent there is reasonable certainty of realization in future. Such assets are reviewed as at each balance sheet date to reassess realization. Provision for Fringe Benefits Tax is made on the basis of applicable rates on the taxable value of eligible expenses of the Company as prescribed under the Income Tax Act, 1961. 44

(m) Earnings per Share Basic and diluted earnings per share are computed by dividing the net profit after tax attributable to equity shareholders for the year, with the weighted number of equity shares outstanding during the year. (n) Provisions and Contingencies The Company creates a provision when there exist 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.

The Honourable Court passed an ad interim and interim order staying the impugned order. The Petition, while it was still pending for hearing and final disposal, was withdrawn in 1989 on redressal of the Companys grievances. After protracted correspondence on the subject, in 1993 the Government raised a demand of Rs 81.83 lakhs on the Company for the period April 1986 to July 1989 and directed the Company to deposit the same into the DPEA. Thereafter, the Drug Prices Liability Review (DPLR) Committee sent a letter dated 15th February, 1996 seeking the Companys submission/ representation against the reduced claim amount of Rs 33.87 lakhs for the period April 1986 to August 1987 as intimated to the DPLR Committee by the Government of India. The Company has made its submissions to the DPLR Committee vide its letter of 29th March, 1996 claiming that no amount whatsoever is due and payable having regard to the facts and relevant material of the case. In the meantime, the Department of Chemicals and Petrochemicals vide their letter dated 11th February, 1997 raised an additional demand of Rs 178.56 lakhs for the earlier period of February 1984 to March 1986 over and above the revised claim of Rs. 33.87 lakhs for the period April 1986 to August 1987. Thus, the total demand raised now stands revised to Rs. 212.43 lakhs. The DPLR Committee had, vide its letter dated 24th February, 1997 invited the Company to make its submissions/ representations against the above said claim. The Company has made its submissions to the DPLR Committee vide its letter dated 14th May, 1997 claiming that no amount whatsoever is due and payable having regard to the facts and relevant material of the case. Pursuant to the submissions made by the Company, the DPLR Committee directed by an Order on 17th November, 1998 that clarifications should be obtained from the Mumbai High Court on whether the Interim Stay granted in the Civil Writ Petition Number 2368 of 1996 is applicable to this matter. (This Writ Petition is filed by OPPI and IDMA jointly against any Notice issued by the Government of India after 25th August, 1987 to any member of the OPPI or IDMA, initiating proceedings for recovery of an amount demanded in respect of a period prior to that date). On a Notice of Motion filed by the Company in the said Writ Petition, the Mumbai High Court has granted ad interim Order that pending the hearing and final disposal of this Notice of Motion, further proceedings in the said Case No 49/1996 pending before the said Drug Prices Liability Review Committee be stayed. (d) Vitamin and Other Formulations The Government has arbitrarily determined the liability of the Company at Rs. 1466 lakhs being the difference in price in respect of Vitamin and other formulations sold by the Company during the years 1983 to 1989. The Company has repudiated 50

Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended 30th November, 2008
the liability on this account. The Companys Solicitors have advised that the repudiation by the Company is legally sustainable. The Government has pursued the matter. The Company maintains its position that the claim by the Government is not legally sustainable. (e) Chloramphenicol The Government has arbitrarily determined the liability of the Company at Rs 145 lakhs and Rs. 14 lakhs being the difference between the price of bulk drug Chloramphenicol powder and Chloramphenicol Palmitate respectively allowed in the formulation price and actual procurement price for the period 1979 to 1988. The Company has repudiated the liability on this account as advised by the Companys Solicitors. The Company has also obtained a Stay order from the Honourable High Court of Mumbai against the demand. Pursuant to the submissions made by the Company, the DPLR Committee directed by an Order on 17th November, 1998 that clarifications should be obtained from the Mumbai High Court on whether the Interim Stay granted in the Civil Writ Petition Number 2368 of 1996 is applicable to this matter. (This Writ Petition is filed by OPPI and IDMA jointly against any Notice issued by the Government of India after 25th August, 1987 to any member of the OPPI or IDMA, initiating proceedings for recovery of an amount demanded in respect of a period prior to that date). On a Notice of Motion filed by the Company in the said Writ Petition, the Mumbai High Court has granted ad interim Order that pending the hearing and final disposal of this Notice of Motion, further proceedings in the said Case No 23/95 pending before the said Drug Prices Liability Review Committee be stayed. (f) Pursuant to the repeal of DPCO 1970, erstwhile Warner-Hindustan Limited (merged with Parke-Davis (India) Limited in 1988 and Parke Davis (India) Limited merged with Pfizer Limited in 2003) had classified ISOKIN TABLETS, ISOKIN LIQUID AND PYRIDIUM TABLETS as decontrolled products under the DPCO 1979. The categorization was, however, challenged by the Government in 1984 and a demand of Rs. 113 lakhs was raised against the Company. Against this demand an excise duty set off of Rs. 7 lakhs was allowed to the Company and a final demand of Rs. 106 lakhs was raised in 1987. The Company had deposited an amount of Rs.30 lakhs in February 1987 and Rs.25 lakhs in May 1990 totaling to an aggregate of Rs.55 lakhs in full and final settlement of the demand, as per the arguments set forth by the Company. The Government subsequently raised a demand of Rs.117 lakhs towards interest on principal demand. (i.e. interest of Rs. 43 lakhs for Pyridium for the period 1982 to August 1995 and Rs.74 lakhs for Isokin for the period 1982 to June 1997). The Company filed a Writ Petition in the Andhra Pradesh High Court in September 1997 for staying all further proceedings against the Company. The High Court stayed the demand in respect of collection of interest but directed the Company to deposit the balance demand of Rs. 51 lakhs (which amount was deposited in November 1997). (g) Multivitamin Formulations: The Government has arbitrarily raised a demand of Rs.182.38 lakhs on account of alleged overpricing of certain multivitamin formulations marketed by erstwhile Pharmacia Healthcare Limited (merged with Pfizer Limited) for the period 1983 to 1986. The Company has repudiated the liability on this account as advised by its solicitors. The Company filed a Writ Petition No.814 of 1992 in the High Court at Mumbai. The Supreme Court of India, in a Special Leave Petition filed by the Company held that pending disposal of Writ Petition filed before the High Court at Mumbai, the Company shall furnish an undertaking in respect of 50% of its liability and shall deposit the balance 50% aggregating to Rs. 91.19 lakhs. This amount has been deposited with the Government of India and is included under the head Loans and advances. Pursuant to a Transfer Petition (Civil) no 475-496 of 2003 filed under Article 139A(1) of the Constitution of India, all pending writ petitions in respect of DPEA liabilities are now to be transferred to the Supreme Court to be heard and finally decided by the Supreme Court of India. Consequently as a result of the said transfer petition, Writ Petitions referred to in (a), (b), (c), (e), (f) and (g) above will now be heard and disposed off by the Supreme Court. In view of matters (a), (b), (c), (e), (f) and (g) being subjudice, the legal opinion being in favour of the Company, and based on the assessment of the Management, no further provision is considered necessary over and above the sum of Rs.198.37 lakhs which has been paid off in earlier years. The Company would continue to seek legal recourse in all the above matters.

18 The Companys international transactions with related parties are at arms length as per the independent accountants report for the year ended 31st March, 2008. Management believes that the Companys international transactions with related parties post 31st March, 2008 continue to be at arms length and that the transfer pricing legislation will not have any impact on these financial statements. 19 The Companys promoters announced the global divestiture of the Consumer Healthcare Business in June 2006 to Johnson & Johnson. Consequently, the global closure was fixed on 20th December, 2006. Pursuant to the approval of the Board of Directors at their meeting held on 31st December, 2007 the Company has transferred its right to use the trademark / license pertaining to Benadryl, Caladryl, Benylin and Listerine and certain assets related thereto, for a total consideration of Rs. 21485.10 lakhs to Johnson & Johnson Limited. All the remaining products under the Consumer Healthcare Portfolio continues to be with the Company. Accordingly, profit on this transfer amounting to Rs. 21095.23 lakhs has been recognized in the current year and accounted under the head Exceptional items Net. 20 The Company uses forward contracts to hedge its risks associated with foreign currency fluctuations having underlying transaction and relating to firm commitments or highly probable forecast transactions. The Company does not enter into any forward contract which is intended for trading or speculative purposes. Currency USD Number of Contracts 1 Buy Amount 500000 Indian Rupees Equivalent 25110000

Foreign currency exposures, not hedged by derivative instruments or otherwise are USD 5.80 (in lakhs) [2007 : USD 7.95 (in lakhs)] equivalent to Rs 291.28 lakhs (2007 : Rs 314.73 lakhs). The break-up of these exposures is tabulated below : 30th Nov 2008 Nature of exposure Accounts receivable Accounts payable Net Foreign Currency (USD in lakhs) 21.30 27.10 5.80 Rs in lakhs 1067.15 1358.43 291.28 30th Nov 2007 Foreign Currency (USD in lakhs) 11.73 19.68 7.95 Rs in lakhs 464.91 779.64 314.73

Schedule 10 : Significant accounting policies (a) Basis of accounting The financial statements have been prepared and presented under the historical cost convention on an accrual basis of accounting and in accordance with the provisions of the Companies Act, 1956 and accounting principles generally accepted in India and comply with the accounting standards prescribed in the Companies (Accounting Standards) Rules, 2006 issued by the Central Government, in consultation with the National Advisory Committee on Accounting Standards, to the extent applicable. (b) Use of estimates The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) in India requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities on the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Any revision to accounting estimate is recognized prospectively in current and future periods. (c) Going concern These financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. The management believes that the Company will continue to operate as a going concern and meet all its liabilities as they fall due for payment due to the following reasons : the Companys bank facilities are guaranteed by the Holding Company, and letter of continued financial support received from the Holding Company confirming that they would continue to provide whatever support is necessary, financial or otherwise, to ensure that the Company continues to operate as a going concern; is able to obtain funding from its bankers and is able to meet its liabilities as they fall due for payment. (d) Inventories Inventories are valued at lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost is arrived at using the First-In-First-Out method. Cost includes cost of purchase (net of refundable taxes and levies) and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. Finished goods expiring within 90 days (near-expiry inventory) as at the balance sheet date are fully provided for. (e) Revenue recognition Revenue from sale of goods is recognised when significant risks and rewards of ownership are transferred to the customers, co-incides with the despatch of goods to the customers. Sales are net of sales returns and trade discounts. Interest income is recognised on a time proportionate basis. (f) Taxation Income tax expense comprises current tax, deferred tax charge or credit and fringe benefits tax. Provision for current tax is based on the results for the year ended 30 November 2008, in accordance with the provisions of the Income Tax Act, 1961. The final tax liability will be determined on the basis of the operations for the year 1 April 2008 to 31 March 2009, being the tax year of the Company. 68

Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended 30th November, 2008
The deferred tax charge or credit is recognized using substantially enacted rates. In the case of unabsorbed depreciation or carried forward losses, deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent there is virtual certainty of realisation of such assets. Other deferred tax assets are recognized only to the extent there is reasonable certainty of realization in future. Such assets are reviewed as at each balance sheet date to reassess realization. Provision for Fringe Benefits Tax is made on the basis of applicable rates on the taxable value of eligible expenses of the Company as prescribed under the Income Tax Act, 1961. (g) Earnings per share Basic and diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing the net profit attributable to equity shareholders for the year, with the weighted number of equity shares outstanding during the year. (h) Provisions and Contingencies The Company creates a provision when there is 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.

Impairment of Assets In accordance with Accounting Standard 28 (AS 28) on Impairment of Assets where there is an indication of impairment of the Companys assets, the carrying amounts of the Companys assets are reviewed at each balance sheet date to determine whether there is any impairment. The recoverable amount of the assets (or where applicable that of the cash generating unit to which the asset belongs) is estimated at the higher of its net selling price and its value in use. Value in use is the present value of estimated future cash flows expected to arise from the continuing use of the assets and from its disposal at the end of its useful life. An impairment loss is recognised whenever the carrying amount of an asset or a cashgenerating unit exceeds its recoverable amount. Impairment loss is recognized in the Profit and Loss Account. (d) Foreign Currency Transactions Transactions in foreign exchange are accounted for at the standard exchange rates as determined by the Company on a monthly basis. The exchange differences arising on foreign exchange transactions settled during the year are recognized in the Profit and Loss Account of the year. Monetary assets and liabilities in foreign exchange, which are outstanding as at the year end, are translated at year end at the closing exchange rate and the resultant exchange differences are recognized in the Profit and Loss Account.

Cost of finished goods and work-in-process includes cost of materials, direct labour and an appropriate portion of overheads. Stores and maintenance spares are valued at average cost. The net realizable value of work-in-process is determined with reference to the selling price of related finished goods. Raw materials and other supplies held for use in production of inventories are not written down below cost except in cases where material prices have declined and it is estimated that the cost of the finished products will exceed their net realizable value. Finished goods expiring within 90 days (near-expiry inventory) as at the balance sheet date have been fully provided for.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended 30th November, 2008
Long Term employee benefits: (i) Defined contribution plan: The Companys contribution towards employees Super Annuation Plan is recognized as an expense during the period. (ii) Defined benefit plans: Provident Fund: Provident Fund contributions are made to a Trust administered by the Trustees. Trust makes investments and is settling members claims. Interest payable to the members shall not be at a rate lower than the statutory rate. Liability is recognized for any shortfall in the Plan assets vis--vis actuarially determined liability of the Fund obligation. Gratuity Plan: The Companys gratuity benefit scheme is a defined benefit plan. The Companys net obligation in respect of the gratuity benefit scheme is calculated by estimating the amount of future benefit that employees have earned in return for their service in the current and prior periods; that benefit is discounted to determine its present value, and the fair value of any plan assets is deducted. The present value of the obligation under such defined benefit plan is determined based on actuarial valuation using the Projected Unit Credit Method, which recognizes each period of service as giving rise to additional unit of employee benefit entitlement and measures each unit separately to build up the final obligation. The obligation is measured at the present value of the estimated future cash flows. The discount rates used for determining the present value of the obligation under defined benefit plan, are based on the market yields on Government securities as at the balance sheet date. Actuarial gains and losses are recognized immediately in the Profit and Loss Account. (iii) Other Long-term employment benefits: Compensated absences which are not expected to occur within twelve months after the end of the period in which the employee renders the related services are recognized as a liability at the present value of the defined benefit obligation at the balance sheet date. The discount rates used for determining the present value of the obligation under defined benefit plan, are based on the market yields on Government securities as at the balance sheet date. (j) Leases Lease rentals under an operating lease, are recognized as an expense in the statement of Profit and Loss Account on a straight line basis over the lease term. (k) Voluntary Retirement Scheme (VRS) Liability under the VRS is accrued on the acceptance of the applications of the employees under the VRS scheme issued by the Company. Compensation paid in the earlier years is charged to the Profit and Loss Account over a period of five years. Compensation paid during the current year and previous year under the VRS is charged to the Profit and Loss Account. (l) Taxation Income tax expense comprises current tax, deferred tax charge or credit and fringe benefits tax. Provision for current tax is based on the results for the year ended 30th November, 2008, in accordance with the provisions of the Income Tax Act, 1961. The final tax liability will be determined on the basis of the operations for the year 1st April, 2008 to 31st March, 2009, being the tax year of the Company. The deferred tax charge or credit is recognized using substantially enacted rates. In the case of unabsorbed depreciation or carried forward losses, deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent there is virtual certainty of realisation of such assets. Other deferred tax assets are recognized only to the extent there is reasonable certainty of realization in future. Such assets are reviewed as at each balance sheet date to reassess realization.
