("KSK" or the "Group" or the "Company")

Audited Results for the year ended 31 March 2016

KSK Power Ventur plc (KSK.L), the power project company listed on the London Stock Exchange, with interests in multiple power plants and businesses across India, announces the consolidated audited results for the year ended 31 March 2016.

Financial Highlights

   --      Gross Revenue increased by 76% to $ 674.5 m (2015: $ 382.3 m) 
   --      Gross Profit increased by 124% to $ 231.3 m (2015: $ 103.3 m) 
   --      Operating Profit increased by 296% to $ 160.5 m (2015: $ 40.6 m) 
   --      Loss before tax of $ 109.7 m (2015: loss of $ 160.1 m) 

These movements are on account of higher power generation for the period (taking into account a partial year of operation of the entire 1,200 MW at KSK Mahanadi and moderate increase in PLF at Sai Wardha). It is anticipated that during the current year this could be further enhanced as a result of improved operating performance on the same installed generation capacity base.

Comparison of results

During the year, there has been further depreciation of Indian Rupees against the US Dollar and a comparison of results on constant currency basis has been tabulated below:

It may be observed that on a constant currency basis, there has been significant improvement in all of the metrics, reflecting the robustness of the underlying business operations. Notwithstanding the challenges across the sector and with exchange rate volatility expected to continue during the current year, the combination of our underlying assets, our risk mitigation strategies and certain recent positive developments should, in the long term, assist in moving the Company back towards meeting market expectations.

Operating Highlights

During the twelve month period, operating assets generated 9,987 GWh with an average portfolio plant load factor of 55%, (FY 2015: 6,158 GWh with a 34% load factor, FY 2014: 5,757 GWh with 32% load factor).

*KSK Mahanadi's PLF is calculated across the periods on the installed capacity base of 1200 MW although actual operations of this capacity only commenced substantially during the second half of FY 2016 (upon grant of the necessary transmission corridor access for supplying through the National Grid).

Commenting on the results, T. L. Sankar, Chairman of KSK said:

"The financial year to 31 March 2016 witnessed the Company's power plants' aggregate gross generation reaching close to 10 TWhs. With the various challenges and operational issues at Sai Wardha and KSK Mahanadi have now been addressed, it is anticipated that gross generation will continue to increase during 2016-17.

It is further anticipated that during the current year, the Government of India will use an auction process for coal linkages wherein coal linkage requirements of all Independent Power Producers (IPPs), with PPA commitments to DISCOMS already made, will be subject to auctions, resulting in a correction in fuel linkages for the sector as a whole. KSK Mahanadi with existing PPAs to multiple DISCOMS is well positioned to take advantage of the new policy and will be able to satisfy KSK's coal requirements.

The additional debt funding for the KSK Mahanadi power project, used to cover the significant $/Rs currency fluctuation on project imports and to extend timelines, has been agreed by the Consortium of Project Lenders and progress on the next two units has restarted, with an early completion anticipated. The Company is currently in discussions with a number of potential strategic and financial investors for equity participation at the KSK Mahanadi project. Discussions with all stakeholders regarding financing arrangements have been positive and the Company is confident that, with support of its lenders, progress on KSK Mahanadi can be achieved.

Our strong performance during the year would not have been possible without the continued support of our shareholders, who have enabled us to pursue business opportunities despite challenging market conditions"

Key Business Updates

3,600 MW KSK MAHANADI POWER PROJECT:

Construction of KSK Mahanadi, a large single location greenfield private power plant, has continued. There have been notable achievements during the year:

   --     the initial 1200 MW unit under operation generated 6,368 GWh  during the year; 

-- construction of the next two 600 MW units was made possible by debt funding provided by the project lenders; and

   --   progress on the remaining two 600 MW units is contingent upon equity funding. 

The 3,600 MW plant is supported by robust infrastructure developed by the group companies of Raigarh Champa Rail Infrastructure and KSK Water Infrastructure. These companies are in the process of being merged into KSK Mahanadi.

540 MW SAI WARDHA POWER LIMITED (SWPL):

The total gross power generated during the review period was 1,856 GWh with an average Plant Load Factor ("PLF") of 39%. This reflected the challenging local operating environment, the fuel and the offtake constraints experienced by Sai Wardha Power.

Although there was a favourable ruling by the Competition Commission of India ("CCI") in favour of Sai Wardha in October 2014, the vital amendment to the pricing aspect of the FSA, which would have facilitated lower power generation costs, has not yet been implemented. Western Coal Fields appealed at the Competition Appellate Tribunal ("COMPAT"). A favourable final ruling would not only enable a price reduction but substantial claims of damages for the prior period being determined by the COMPAT.

Regarding long term power sale arrangements to commence supplies for half of the capacity of the Sai Wardha project, the Appellate Tribunal for Electricity ("APTEL") ruled in favour of Sai Wardha in February 2015 and PPA execution is expected.

The Company continues to make every effort to pursue the coal price reduction and implementation of the APTEL direction, which will ultimately lead to the enhanced utilisation and profitability of the Sai Wardha plant.

135 MW VS LIGNITE POWER PRIVATE LIMITED (VSLP):

Total gross power generated during the year was 792 GWh, with an average PLF of 67% reflecting the transition from Captive Power Plant to Independent Power Producers, as mandated by the Government. The Company has been supplying power to the local grid and is continuing its efforts to secure necessary long term PPAs from the local grid and anticipates achieving this during the current year.

86 MW SAI LILAGAR POWER LIMITED (SLPL):

Total gross power generated during the year was 172 GWh, with an average PLF of 23%, primarily reflecting the transition from Captive Power Plant to Independent Power Producer. With the new PPA arrangements addressed, asset utilisation is expected to significantly improve and reach low to mid 80% PLF levels over the next few quarters. As a result, the Company anticipates increased generation, revenue and profitability from the SLPL plant.

58 MW SAI REGENCY POWER CORPORATION PRIVATE LIMITED (SRPCPL):

Total gross power generated in the combined cycle gas fired power plant during the year was 459 GWh, with an average PLF of 90%. With the continuous supply of gas and an efficient operation, the plant has produced an exceptional operational and financial performance, which is expected to continue.

43 MW SITAPURAM POWER LIMITED (SPL):

Total gross power generated during the year was 324 GWh, with an average PLF of 86%. The fuel cost for the period under review has increased due to an increase in coal prices from the Singareni Collieries Company Limited, as well as from open market purchases. The energy generated in the period has been supplied to the captive consumers in accordance with the provisions of the PPA, and the balance of power generated has been sold to local utility companies.

10 MW SAI MAITHILI SOLAR POWER PROJECT:

Total gross power generated during the year was 17 GWh, with an average PLF of 19%. The 10 MW PV solar power generation plant is located in the state of Rajasthan, operating under the Jawaharlal Nehru National Solar Mission.

SOLAR POWER GENERATION PLANTS:

In response to the continuing initiative of the Indian Government, the Company is seeking to develop an additional 250 MW of solar power generation projects in the medium term wherein the first 50 MW is being pursued at a faster rate. A number of early initiatives for the procurement of the necessary panels and associated balance of plant equipment has been finalised with selected vendors, with active support of the banks who are ready to provide the requisite long term financing.

WIND POWER AND HYDRO POWER GENERATION INITIATIVE

The Company continues to pursue specific wind power generation initiatives as well as work on the hydro project portfolio and on suitable collaboration opportunities. North East Electric Power Corporation Limited, the Government owned hydro power company, has been inducted as an equity partner in the 120 MW Dibbin Hydro project being developed by KSK.

EQUITY AND FINANCING ARRANGEMENTS

The Company's shareholding in KSKEV has been maintained at 68.17%, with additional equity invested during the year. Such stake at the Indian listed subsidiary, which holds the entire power generation portfolio, has been possible on account of the initial equity as well as additional equity acquired, based on debt secured in 2011. The Company's financing plans include pursuing a number of initiatives including a secondary sale of project interests and refinancing opportunities on more favourable terms to provide the necessary liquidity to retire part of the existing high cost debt.

Due to the extended implementation timeline and the impact of the INR/$ exchange rate dropping from INR 48/$ originally envisaged at the project's conception to the current INR 68/$, KSK Mahanadi, along with the Rail and water infrastructure integrated, is now estimated to require a total capital expenditure at completion of $4,181 m.

The revised total capital expenditure consists of a phased investment plan wherein, at the first level, the existing investment of $2.5 billion is expected to increase to $ 3.52 billion Dollar for completion of the 2,400 MW (including the integration of the railway and water infrastructure assets as well expenditure already incurred on the last 1,200 MW unit) and progress further to $ 4.18 billion for the completed 3,600 MW operations.

Therefore, the incremental capital expenditure programme consists of estimated additional expenditure of $ 962 million for the 2,400 MW, and an additional expenditure of $ 657 million of incremental expenditure thereafter to complete the final 1,200 MW. Consequently, the Company is holding discussions and evaluating proposals for further strategic funding and equity collaboration at the asset level with various potential participants.

FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE

With a total operable capacity of 2,072 MW, the consolidated operating revenue achieved was $ 674.5 m, with a gross profit of $ 231.3 m, operating profits of $ 160.5 m, a loss before tax of $ 109.7 m, and a loss after tax of $ 95.6 m.

Net revenue increase is largely as a result of improved power generation at KSK Mahanadi as well as partially increased output levels at Sai Wardha. Revenues also include revenue of $ 110.60 million due to changes in law pursuant to the Power Purchase Agreements with State Utilities and Government of India directive. However this is subject to obtaining adjudication by the Electricity Regulatory Commission.

Gross profit has increased to $ 231.3 m; operating profit has increased to $ 160.5 m.

There was a significant increase of finance costs from $ 219.8 m to $296.5 m due to increased borrowing levels with respect to operational power plants, wherein $ 83.24 m increase at KSK Mahanadi on a year on year basis was mainly on account of second unit operations.

The loss after tax has increased from $ 68.9 m to $ 74.5 m reflecting higher deferred tax asset at KSK Mahanadi in the previous year.

Business Strategy

The Company's business strategy is to focus on consolidation of the operations of the installed capacity of 2,072 MW during FY 2016-17, whereby a higher portfolio PLF for the period would enable the Company to achieve gross generation exceeding 10 TWh.

The high capital expenditure and associated project debt required to develop and grow the Company's power generation business, coupled with adverse currency volatility and the current difficult Indian policy environment, will impact the Company's overall funding requirements and financial performance in the near term.

Work continues at the Company on a number of major initiatives in this regard and with appropriate equity collaboration at KSK Mahanadi. The same coupled with potential cash accruals (post debt servicing) is anticipated to provide ample support.

Obtaining the right fuel at the right price within the Indian power sector and supplying power to customers at sensible PPAs continues to be the main challenge. However, with significant long term PPAs already signed at attractive tariff rates, the Company expects to secure the necessary partnerships required for its major capital project run by KSK Mahanadi, resulting in improved financial performance over time.

OUTLOOK

Demand for power generation in India is expected to grow over the next decade. The high quality of the Company's expanding asset base, a proven execution capability, an increasingly efficient business structure, and secured fuel supplies to the power plants means that, KSK is well positioned to address and take advantage of these opportunities.

Once the remaining units of the 3.6 GW KSK Mahanadi power projects are added to the Company's existing portfolio, the Board believes KSK will be one of India's leading suppliers of power. However, in the short term the Board expects revenues and underlying profit to remain below the Board's initial expectations, but gradually improving over the longer term.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED AND COMPANY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

for the year ended 31 March 2016

(All amount in thousands of US $, unless otherwise stated)

   1.   Corporate information 
   1.1.     General information 

KSK Power Ventur plc ('the Company' or 'KPVP' or 'KSK' or 'Parent'), a limited liability corporation, is the Group's Parent Company and is incorporated and domiciled in the Isle of Man. The address of the Company's Registered Office, which is also principal place of business, is Fort Anne, Douglas, Isle of Man, IM1 5PD. The Company's equity shares are listed on the Standard List on the official list of the London Stock Exchange.

   1.2.     Nature of operations 

KSK Power Ventur plc, its subsidiaries and joint operations (collectively referred to as 'the Group') are primarily engaged in the development, ownership, operation and maintenance of private sector power projects with multiple industrial consumers and utilities in India.

KSK focused its strategy on the private sector power development market, undertaking entire gamut of development, investment, construction (for its own use), operation and maintenance of power plant with supplies initially to heavy industrials operating in India and now branching out to cater to the needs of utilities and others in the wider Indian power sector.

The principal activities of the Group are described in note 9.

   1.3.     Statement of compliance responsibility statement 

a. The Consolidated and Company financial statements contained in this document has been prepared in accordance with International Financial Accounting Standard and its interpretations as adopted by European Union ('EU') and the provisions of the Isle of Man, Companies Act 1931-2004 applicable to companies reporting under IFRS and gives a true and fair view of the assets, liabilities, financial position and the profit or loss of the group as required by Disclosure and Transparency Rules ("DTR") 4.2.4R;

b. the management report contained in this document includes a fair review of the information required by the Financial Conduct Authority's DTR 4.2.7R (being an indication of important events that have occurred during the financial year and their impact on the financial statements; and a description of the principal risks and uncertainties year);

c. this document includes a fair review of the information required by DTR 4.2.8R (disclosure of related party transactions and changes therein);

The financial statements were authorised for issue by the Board of Directors on 18 July 2016.

   1.4.     Financial period 

The Consolidated and Company financial statements cover the period from 1 April 2015 to 31 March 2016, with comparative figures from 1 April 2014 to 31 March 2015.

   1.5.     Basis of preparation 

These Consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost convention and on an accrual basis, except for the following:

   --    Derivative financial instruments that are measured at fair value; 

-- Financial instruments that are designated as being at fair value through profit or loss account upon initial recognition are measured at fair value;

   --    Available-for-sale financial assets that are measured at fair value; and 
   --    Liabilities for cash-settled shared-based payment arrangements 

-- Net employee defined benefit (asset) / liability that is measured based on actuarial valuation.

The financial statements of the Group and the Company have been presented in United States Dollars ('US $'), which is the presentation currency of the Company. All amounts have been presented in thousands, unless specified otherwise.

Balances represent consolidated amounts for the Group, unless otherwise stated. The Company's financial statement represents separate financial statement of KPVP.

Going Concern: The financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis which assumes the Group and the Company will have sufficient funds to continue its operational existence for the foreseeable future, covering at least twelve months from the date of signing these financial statements. The Group requires funds for both short-term operational needs as well as for long-term investment programmes, mainly in construction projects for its power plants. As at 31 March 2016, the Group had net current liabilities of US $ 459,928 and is dependent on a continuation of both short-term and long-term debt financing facilities. Such financing is subject to covenant and amortisation conditions. The Group also has significant capital commitments at the year-end of which a portion is due to be met during the year ending 31 March 2017 (refer note 14(a)), primarily in respect of on-going plant construction projects at KSK Mahanadi. The Group is also involved in a number of on-going legal and claim matters the impact of which is outlined in note 14(b). The Group continues to generate cash flows from current operations which are further expected to increase with full year operation of two units of KSK Mahanadi plant and better plant load factor in Sai Wardha. These two factors are key assumptions with regard to management's forecasts and expectations. It is forecast that the long-term PPA arrangement for Sai Wardha will be in place shortly. Should there be further delays in this matter this may impact on the ability of the Group to generate sufficient cash flows for current financing proposals being considered, described below. A number of the facilities that are due to expire at 31 March 2017 are in the process of being extended and are renewable in a number of cases. In addition the Group may refinance and/or restructure certain short-term borrowings into long-term borrowings and will also consider alternative sources of financing, wherever applicable. The Directors are confident that these facilities will remain available to the Group based on current trading, covenant compliance and ongoing discussions with the Group's primary lending consortium regarding future facilities and arrangements in respect of current borrowings. The Group currently had significant undrawn borrowing facilities, subject to certain conditions, amounting to approximately US $ 969,740 to meet its long-term investment programmes. The Group is in the process of completing the documentation with various lenders in order to match facilities to the current development and financing plan for KSK Mahanadi. As a consequence,

the Directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company and the Group are well placed to manage their business risks and continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Accordingly, the Directors continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting when preparing these financial statements.

   2.     Changes in accounting policy and disclosure 

The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the previous financial year except for the adoption of new standards as of 1 April 2015, noted below:

The Group has adopted the following new standards and amendments to standards, including any consequential amendments to other standards, with a date of initial application of 1 April 2015.

-- IFRIC 21 Levies : IFRIC 21 clarifies that an entity recognises a liability for a levy when the activity that triggers payment, as identified by the relevant legislation, occurs. For a levy that is triggered upon reaching a minimum threshold, the interpretation clarifies that no liability should be anticipated before the specified minimum threshold is reached. Retrospective application is required for IFRIC 21. This interpretation has no impact on the Group as it has applied the recognition principles under IAS 37 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets consistent with the requirements of IFRIC 21 in prior years.

-- Amendments to IAS 19 Defined Benefit Plans: Employee Contributions: IAS 19 requires an entity to consider contributions from employees or third parties when accounting for defined benefit plans. Where the contributions are linked to service, they should be attributed to periods of service as a negative benefit. These amendments clarify that, if the amount of the contributions is independent of the number of years of service, an entity is permitted to recognise such contributions as a reduction in the service cost in the period in which the service is rendered, instead of allocating the contributions to the periods of service. This amendment is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 February 2015. This amendment has no impact on the Group, since none of the entities within the Group has defined benefit plans with contributions from employees or third parties.

-- Annual Improvements 2010-2012 Cycle: In the 2010-2012 annual improvements cycle, the IASB issued seven amendments to six standards, which included an amendment to IFRS 13 Fair Value Measurement. The amendment to IFRS 13 is effective immediately and, thus, for periods beginning at 1 February 2015, and it clarifies in the Basis for Conclusions that short-term receivables and payables with no stated interest rates can be measured at invoice amounts when the effect of discounting is immaterial. This amendment to IFRS 13 has no impact on the Group.

-- Annual Improvements 2011-2013 Cycle: In the 2011-2013 annual improvements cycle, the IASB issued four amendments to four standards, which included an amendment to IFRS 1 First-time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards. The amendment to IFRS 1 is effective immediately and, thus, for periods beginning at 1 January 2015, and clarifies in the Basis for Conclusions that an entity may choose to apply either a current standard or a new standard that is not yet mandatory, but permits early application, provided either standard is applied consistently throughout the periods presented in the entity's first IFRS financial statements. This amendment to IFRS 1 has no impact on the Group, since the Group is an existing IFRS preparer.

   9.    Segment information 

The Group has adopted the "management approach" in identifying the operating segments as outlined in IFRS 8. Management has analysed the information that the chief operating decision maker reviews and concluded on the segment disclosure.

For management purposes, the Group is organised into business units based on their services and has two reportable operating segments as follows:

   --      Power generating activities and 
   --      Project development activities 

Management monitors the operating results of its business units separately for the purpose of making decisions about resource allocation and performance assessment. Segment performance is evaluated based on operating profit or loss which in certain respects, as explained in the table below, is measured differently from operating profit or loss in the Consolidated financial statements. Group financing (including finance costs and finance income) and income taxes are managed on a Group basis and are not allocated to operating segments. There is only one geographical segment as all the operations and business is carried out in India.

(1) The transactions with related parties are made at terms equivalent to those that prevail in arm's length transactions. Outstanding balances at the period end are unsecured, interest-bearing in case of loans and inter-corporate deposits and non-interest bearing in case of other loans and advances and settlement occurs in cash. For the year ended 31 March 2016, the Group has recorded US $ 14,096 as impairment of receivables relating to amounts owed by related parties (2015: US $ Nil). This assessment is undertaken each financial period through examining the financial position of the related party and the market in which the related party operates.

(2) The difference in the movement between the opening outstanding balances, transactions during the year and closing outstanding balances is on account of exchange adjustments, impact of business combination, provision / write off and conversion into equity.

(3) Remuneration is net of share based payments and accrual towards Gratuity, a defined benefit plan, which is managed for the Group as a whole. However, the annual accrual of this liability towards key management personnel is not expected to be significant. There are no other long term benefits and termination benefits which are payable to the key management personnel.

14. Commitments and contingencies

   a.     Capital commitments 

As at 31 March 2016, the Group is committed to purchase property, plant and equipment for US $ 1,467,098 (2015: US $ 1,300,892). In respect of its interest in joint operations the Group is committed to incur capital expenditure of US $ 49 (2015: US $ 51).

   b.     Legal and other claim 

i. SWPL filed a claim against Maharashtra State Electricity Distribution Company Limited (MSEDCL) towards recovery of the amount withheld against supply of energy under Power Purchase Agreement (including penalty on such amount) amounting to US $ 11,008 (2015: US $ 11,636). The facility required for generation of an agreed quantum of power was not ready as per an agreed schedule on account of unexpected factors beyond the control of the Group, the Group proposed to MSEDCL an arrangement to secure the energy from alternate supplies for the short quantity required to meet the obligation under the power purchase agreement. MSEDCL accepted the proposal and also confirmed that the energy supplied from alternate sources will also be subject to the tariff agreed under the power purchase agreement. However, after initial payments for the period April to June 2010, starting July 2010 to October 2010, MSEDCL did not settle the entire dues billed and the certain amounts were withheld without any explanation. The Group contended before Maharashtra Electricity Regulatory Commission (MERC) that since the energy supplied and billed was as per the terms agreed and the similar bills of earlier months were paid by MSEDCL, there is no cause to withhold the payments. However, MERC has dismissed the petition. The Group has filed an appeal before Appellate Tribunal for Electricity (APTEL) against the order of MERC and APTEL also rejected the appeal. The Group has filed an appeal before Honourable Supreme Court of India. Pending adjudication, the Group believes that the final outcome of the above dispute would be in favour of the Group and there would be no material impact on the financial statements. Pending final adjudication of the matter, the Group has accrued necessary provision on prudent basis.

ii. VS Lignite Power Private Limited (VSLPPL) has receivables of US $ 7,787 (2015: US $ 8,750) from its consumers representing taxes including royalty, cess on clean energy, taxes on input fuel as well as double adjustments for the security deposit, transmission and SLDC charges and take or pay obligation which are disputed by the consumers. In addition, the customers have also raised demand towards supply or pay obligation which are disputed by the Group. The Group has an amount of US $ 6,373 access from such customers as redeemable preference and equity capital available for necessary setoffs. Further, the Group contends that not only it has fulfilled the contractually guaranteed supplies but also the amounts claimed are as per the terms of the power purchase agreements. Aggrieved by the order of Arbitrator and civil court, the Group has preferred an appeal in Honourable High Court of Jodhpur. Pending outcome of the same, the Group believes that the final determination of the above dispute would be in favour of the Group and there would be no material impact on the financial statements.

iii. The captive customers of the SWPL has deducted from the sales invoices and paid an amount of US$ 9,107 towards Cross Subsidy Surcharge ('CSS') levied by MSEDCL for the financial year 2012-13 before ascertaining the captive status of the plant at the end of financial year which was against the express provisions of the Electricity Act 2003 read with the Electricity Rules, 2005. MERC asked the Company to pay CSS on ground of non-fulfilment of criteria of 51% supply to captive users as per Rule 3 of the Electricity Rules 2005. Aggrieved by the said order of the MERC, the Company has filed an appeal before the APTEL on the ground that the non-fulfilment of captive criteria by the company was attributed to the delay caused by MSEDCL in granting open access to captive customers. APTEL also rejected the appeal. However Company has filed review petition with APTEL. The Group has received favorable order for the financial year 2013-2014. Pending adjudication of the same, the Group believes that there is a good chance of succeeding before the APTEL and hence no adjustment has been made in the financial statements.

iv. KSK Mahanadi, the Group's largest thermal power generation plant with two units fully operational and balance units in various stages of construction and commissioning is engaged in the generation and supply of power to four state utilities of Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, Tamil Nadu and Uttar Pradesh under Case 1 competitive bid Power Purchase Agreement (PPA). The respective PPAs in addition to the agreed tariff payable for the power supplied contains specific provisions providing for tariff adjustment payment to the generator on account of Change in law. The Change in law provision essentially provides reimbursement mechanism for all additional recurring or non-recurring expenditure incurred by the Generator towards new costs levied / incurred post the bidding point. These claims under the PPA cover both (a) Claim on account of various statutory duties, levies and cess levied by Central or State Governments or its instrumentalities; and (b) linkage coal shortfall compensation with respective to Presidential Directive and Ministry of Power Notification to all Electricity Regulators in India. KSK Mahanadi has made claims pursuant to the above PPA provisions in excess of US $ 193,517, wherein claim pertaining to taxes amounts to US $ 35,822 and claim on account of short supply of coal pursuant to the Presidential Directive amounts to US $ 157,695. However, notwithstanding its eligibility for the full claim as per the PPA, keeping in view the regulatory commitments by the Government instrumentalities, the necessary legal and administrative process that KSK Mahanadi has to pursue, on its internal evaluation of the facts and circumstances of the case on a prudent basis, KSK Mahanadi has recognised a portion of the claim aggregating to US $ 140,510 in the books of accounts until date, wherein US $ 109,351 pertains to the current year. KSK Mahanadi has in its notices to the utilities submitted that it qualifies for the composite scheme guidelines and hence Central Electrical Regulatory Commission (CERC) will be the relevant appropriate authority to adjudicate

the matter. While in the earlier period, the claims were to be determined by the State Regulators, pursuant to a recent ruling by the Appellate Tribunal of Electricity (APTEL) with respect to multiple power producers, the jurisdiction of CERC has been reaffirmed. Based on the bid guidelines, the PPA provisions and the legal advice that KSK Mahanadi has obtained, steps have been initiated to make appropriate amends in its claim petitions and filings before CERC. Based on the legal advice and recent ruling of CERC in similarly placed power project, KSK Mahanadi is confident that the entire claim amount is fully receivable.

v. KMPCL has levied capacity charges and transmission charges to AP Discoms for the period from 16 June 2013 to

13 August 2013 amounting to US $ 13,183 (2015: US $ 13,935), on account of delayed fulfilment of obligation under the PPA. AP Discoms have rejected those claims and made the counter claim of US $ 3,562 (2015: US $ 3,765) for failure to furnish advance final written notice of commencement of supply of power as per article 4.1.2 of PPA. The Group has preferred an appeal before APERC & TSERC for refund of amount collected by Discoms by encashment of bank guarantee. The Group's contention is that since the Discoms have failed to fulfil the obligation as per PPA, there is default on part of Discoms and the counter claim by Discoms is merely to negate the effect of KMPCL claim of capacity charges. Pending adjudication of the case, the Group believes that there is a good chance of succeeding before the regulatory commissions and hence no adjustment has been made in the financial statements.

vi. The Company had made investment of US $ 15,848 in Athena Projects Private Limited ('APPL') for acquisition of 25% stake. APPL in turn holds substantial investment in Teesta III hydro project. On 16.07.2009, the parties entered into a MOU providing for transfer of interest in 68,400,000 shares of Teesta III in favour of KSK Energy Company Private Limited ('KECPL'). The arrangement envisaged APPL to complete certain corporate actions. Thereafter, as a final arrangement a share sale and purchase agreement dated 5 April 2010 was executed between KECPL and APPL promoters that provided for acquisition of entire shares of US $ 15,848 in one year's time. Upon same being not honoured KECPL filed the petition with Company Law Board ('CLB'), Principal Bench, New Delhi which is currently pending. The aforesaid is the significant matter of minority protection and management believe that they have the good grounds for the favourable disposal of the case. Hence the Group continue to carry the investment in APPL at cost.

vii. The Group had entered into coal supply agreement with Goa Industrial Development Corporation (GIDC) for sourcing coal from the identified coal block i.e., Garepelma-III coal block. However, pursuant to the Honourable Supreme Court Orders during August and September 2014, Garepelma-III was de-allocated from GIDC. GIDC has kept the group notified that is still pursuing with the Government for allocation of this mine under the new coal statute and also has filed a legal case before Honourable High Court of Delhi wherein interim relief is granted in favor of GIDC. At the same time the initial development of the Garepelma-III block was entrusted to Group by GIDC, wherein the Group has incurred all the cost relating to the development of mine. Government of India has promulgated the Coal Mines (Special Provisions) Ordinance, which provides for reimbursement of cost incurred towards land and mine infrastructure by new allottee. Accordingly GIDC has made the claim for US $ 39,802 for settlement before Nominated Authority appointed under the Ordinance by Ministry of Coal. Subsequent to the year end, Government of India, Ministry of Coal has directed to pay towards cost of compensation for geological report to all the prior allottee and accordingly the Group has received US $ 4,528. Pending final adjudication of the case by Honourable High Court of Delhi or pending final settlement of the claim by the Nominated Authority, the management believes that the entire amount incurred by the Group is recoverable and accordingly the claim of US $ 39,802 has been reclassified under other receivable.

viii. Other non-current assets include an amount of US $ 16,502 (2015: US $ 20,850) relating to Central Excise, VAT and Service Tax receivable from the respective departments by SWPL. SWPL is registered as SEZ unit. A unit in SEZ is allowed to import goods (purchase from local market is also treated as import) without payment of Duty for the purpose of its authorised operations. The exemption from the payment of duties and taxes are provided under Section 26 of the SEZ Act, 2005. In respect of Service Tax, the Group has already received a refund for the period from January 2013 to March 2015 and a favourable order from Central Excise & Service Tax Appellate Tribunal (CESTAT) for the period March 2009 to December 2009 and claims for remaining period is pending before CESTAT. Thus the Group is confident of receiving refund for the remaining period as well. In respect of VAT claims the Group has already received a refund for the financial year 2007-08 to 2010-11 and for the financial year 2013-14 on adhoc basis however assessment is still pending. The Company has also received refund order for financial year 2011-12 and thus the Group is confident to receive the refund for the remaining years as well. The excise duty refund claims were rejected by the department stating that there are no provision of refund under the SEZ Act. The Company has filed an appeal with the CESTAT where in the CESTAT and the Large bench has mentioned that in respect of rebate on goods supplied from DTA to SEZ within India, the appeal would not lie to Appellate Tribunal under clause (b) of provision of Section 35(1) of Central Excise Act, however the Group has liberty to file revision application before Revisionary Authority, Government of India. Accordingly, the Company has filed a revisionary petition with Ministry of Finance, Department of Revenue. The Group is confident to receive the refund.

ix. The Group has received claims for US $ 9,807 (2015: US $ 10,367) from Joint Director General of Foreign Trade (DGFT) towards the recovery of the duty drawbacks, earlier refunded. The Group had earlier made claims for the refund of the duties paid on the machinery and other items purchased for the construction of the power projects under the scheme of deemed export benefit, which were accepted and refunds were granted. The communications from the DGFT regarding the recovery of the duties paid are based on the interpretations by the Policy Interpretation Committee held on 15 March 2011. The Group contends that the above change in interpretation requires an amendment to the foreign trade policy to be legally enforceable in law. Since, no such amendment can be made with retrospective effect, the Group believes that outcome of the above dispute would be in favour of the Group and there would be no material impact on the financial statements.

x. SWPL has lodged a claim relating to quality and price on Western Coalfields Limited (WCL), the coal supplier for abuse of dominant position by WCL and Coal India Limited (CIL). Honourable Commission has passed an order on 27 October 2014 in favour of the Group as far as price claim is concerned whereas for the quality claim, the Commission has referred to its earlier order dated 13 January 2014, of similar case which is presently pending at Competition Appellate Tribunal (COMPAT). WCL has preferred an appeal against the order of the Commission before the COMPAT wherein hearing is presently underway. The Group has filed a total claim of US $ 137,045 with COMPAT under provision 53N of The Competition Act, 2002. Further Company has received a demand of US $ 11,494 from WCL towards short lifting of minimum quantity of coal which is also contested by the Company on various grounds including of inferior quality & high price. The Group believes that the final outcome of the above matters would be in favour of the group and adjustments if any will be incorporated in the financial statements after finalisation of the legal proceedings.

In addition, the Group is also subject to various other legal proceedings and claims which have arisen in the ordinary course of business including claims before various tax authorities. The Management does not reasonably expect that these legal proceedings, when ultimately concluded and determined, will have a material and adverse effect on the Group's results of operations or financial conditions. The Group has accrued appropriate provision wherever required.

Guarantees

-- The Company has guaranteed to unrelated parties for the loans and non-fund based facilities availed by subsidiaries for US $ 319,535 (2015: US $ 275,977) and

-- The Group guaranteed the performance of the joint ventures under the power delivery agreements to unrelated parties. No liability is expected to arise.

Fair value hierarchy

The table below analyses recurring fair value measurements for financial assets and financial liabilities. These fair value measurements are categorised in to different levels in the fair value hierarchy based on the inputs to valuation techniques used. The different levels are defined as follows.

-- Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

-- Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices that is observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.

-- Level 3: valuation techniques that include inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).
