BACKGROUND AND RATIONALE FOR THE SCHEME

The background and circumstances which justify the proposed Amalgamation Scheme are, inter-alia, as follows:-

The proposed Amalgamation will lead to a simplified corporate structure since it will result in the combined businesses of PHCPL and PML being carried on more economically, efficiently and beneficially and the arrangement would be in the interest of both the Companies and their shareholders as the businesses carried on by both the Companies are under common management/shareholders. The proposed amalgamation would strengthen the Management of PML effectively because of avoidance and elimination of unnecessary duplication of time, costs and expenses, incurred for administration and operations of both the Companies separately and would result in better utlilization of resources and assets and synergies of operations with integration of management and other expertise. The proposed amalgamation will also lead to reduction in compliance requirement and reduction in the intermediate holding structure in accordance with Section 2(87) of Companies Act, 2013 thereby providing greater operation flexibility

9

32

in future. Further, even the creditors of PML will not be affected by the Scheme since PHCPL does not have any external liabilities, and post the amalgamation, the assets of the PML would continue to be more than its liabilities.

In view of the aforesaid, the Board of Directors of PHCPL and PML at their respective meetings held on August 7, 2019 have considered and approved unanimously, the Scheme of Amalgamation of PHCPL and PML subject to necessary statutory approvals. Accordingly, the Board of Directors of both the Companies have formulated this Scheme of Amalgamation for the transfer to and vesting of the undertakings and business of PHCPL into PML pursuant to the provisions of Sections 230 to 232 and other relevant provisions of the Companies Act, 2013 as applicable and in force.

Recommendation of share exchange ratio for the proposed amalgamation of P HCP L with TP ML

This Valuation Report, its contents and the results herein are specific to (i) the purpose of valuation agreed as per the terms of our engagement; and (ii) the date of this Valuation Report and (iii) the latest available financial statements of the Companies and other information provided by the Management or taken f[r] om public sources till 7 August 2019.

A valuation of this nature is necessarily based on (a) prevailing stock market, financial, economic and other conditions in general and industry trends in particular as in effect on and (b) the information made available to us as of, the date hereof. Events occurring after the date hereof may affect this Valuation Report and the assumptions used in preparing it, and we do not assume any obligation to update, revise or reaffirm this Valuation Report.

The ultimate analysis will have to be influenced by the exercise of judicious discretion by the Valuer and judgment taking into accounts all the relevant factors. There will always be several factors, e.g. management capability, present and prospective competition, yield on comparable securities, market sentiment, etc. which are not evident from the face of the balance sheets but which will strongly influence the worth of a share. This concept is also recognized in judicial decisions.

The recommendation(s) rendered in this Valuation Report only represent our recommendation(s) based upon information received by the Companies till 7 August 2019 and other sources and the said recommendation(s) shall be considered to be in the nature of non-binding advice (our recommendation will however not be used for advising anybody to take buy or sell decision, for which specific opinion needs to be taken from expert advisors). Further, the determination of Equity Share Exchange Ratio is not a precise science and the conclusions arrived at in many cases will, of necessity, be subjective and dependent on the exercise of individual judgment. There is, therefore, no indisputable single Equity Share Exchange Ratio. While we have provided our recommendation of the Equity Share Exchange Ratio based on the information available to us and within the scope and constraints of our engagement, others may have a different opinion as to the Equity Share Exchange Ratio of the equity shares ofTPML and PH CPL. You acknowledge and agree that you have the final responsibility for the determination of the Equity Share Exchange Ratio at which the proposed amalgamation shall take place and factors other than our Valuation Repo1t will need to be taken into account in determining the Equity Share Exchange Ratio; these will include your own assessment of the Transaction and may include the input of other professional advisors.

In the course of the valuation, we were provided with both written and verbal information, including market, technical, financial and operating data. In accordance with the terms of our engagement, we have assumed and relied upon, without independent verification, (i) the accuracy of the information that was publicly available and formed a substantial basis for this Valuation Report and (ii) the accuracy of information made available to us by the Companies. We have not carried out a due diligence or audit of the Companies for the purpose of this engagement, nor have we independently investigated or otherwise verified the data provided. We are not legal or regulatory advisors with respect to legal and regulatory matters for the Transaction. We do not express any form of assurance that the financial information or other information as prepared and provided by the Companies is accurate. Also, with

of any doubt. Accordingly, we do not express any opinion or offer any form of assurance regarding its accuracy and completeness.

Our conclusions are based on these assumptions and information given by/ on behalf of the Companies. The Management have indicated to us that they have understood that any omissions, inaccuracies or misstatements may materially affect our valuation analysis/ results. Accordingly, we assume no responsibility for any errors in the information furnished by the Companies and its impact on the Valuation Report. Also, we assume no responsibility for technical information (if any) furnished by the Companies. However, nothing has come to our attention to indicate that the information provided was materially mis-stated/ incorrect or would not afford reasonable grounds upon which to base the Valuation Repo1t. We do not imply and it should not be construed that we have verified any of the information provided to us, or that our inquiries could have verified any matter, which a more extensive examination might disclose.

APPROACH & METHODOLOGY - BASIS OF TRANSACTION

The Transaction contemplates amalgamation of PHCPL with TPML. Arriving at the Equity Share Exchange Ratio for the proposed amalgamation of the above mentioned companies would require determining the value of PHCPL in terms of the value of the equity shares ofTPML. These values are to be determined independently but on a relative basis, and without considering the proposed Transaction.

There are several commonly used and accepted methods for determining the value of the equity shares of a company, which have been considered in the present case by Valuers independently, to the extent relevant and applicable, including:

  • I . Market Price method

  • Income Approach/ Earnings based Method

  • Net Asset Value method (NA V)

It should be understood that the valuation of any company or its assets is inherently imprecise and is subject to certain uncertainties and contingencies, all of which are difficult to predict and are beyond our control. In performing our analysis, we made numerous assumptions with respect to industry performance and general business and economic conditions, many of which are beyond the control of the Companies. In addition, this valuation will fluctuate with changes in prevailing market conditions, the conditions and prospects, financial and otherwise, of the Companies, and other factors which generally influence the valuation of companies and their assets.

The application of any patticular method of valuation depends on the purpose for which the valuation is done. Although different values may exist for different purposes, it cannot be too strongly emphasized that a valuer can only arrive at one value for one purpose. Our choice of methodology of valuation has been arrived at using usual and conventional methodologies adopted for a transaction of a similar nature, regulatory guidelines and our reasonable judgment, in an independent and bona fide manner based on our previous experience of assignments of a similar nature.

BASIS OF EQUITY SHARE EXCHANGE RATIO

The basis of amalgamation of PHCPL into TPML would have to be determined after taking into consideration all the factors and methodologies mentioned hereinabove. Though different values have been arrived at under each of the above methodologies, for the purposes of recommending an Equity Share Exchange Ratio of equity shares, it is necessary to arrive at a single value for the equity shares ofTPML and PHCPL. lt is however important to note that in doing so we are not attempting to arrive at the absolute equity values of the Companies but at their relative values to facilitate the determination of a fair Equity Share Exchange Ratio. For th is purpose, it is necessary to give appropriate weights to the values arrived at under each methodology.

The Equity Share Exchange Ratio has been arrived at on the basis ofa relative equity valuation of the Companies based on the various approaches/ methods explained herein earlier and various qualitative factors relevant to each company and the business dynamics and growth potentials of the businesses of the Businesses, having regard to information base, key underlying assumptions and limitations.

As considered appropriate, we have independently applied methodologies discussed in the Annexures and arrived at the value per share of the Companies. To arrive at the consensus on the equity share exchange ratio for the proposed amalgamation, suitable minor adjustments/ rounding off have been done.

In view of the above, and on consideration of the relevant factors and circumstances as discussed and outlined hereinabove, we recommend the Equity Share Exchange Ratio of equity shares for amalgamation of PH CPL into TPML at 627 (six hundred twenty seven) equity shares ofTPML oflNR 2 each fully paid up for every 100 (hundred) equity shares of PH CPL of INR 10 each fully paid up.

Our Valuation Report and Equity Share Exchange Ratio is based on the current equity share capital structure ofTPML and PHCPL as mentioned earlier in this Report. Any variation in the equity capital ofTPML and PHCPL may have material impact on the share exchange ratio.

Respectfully submitted.

Annexure lA

APPROACH & METHODOLOGY - BASIS OF TRANSACTION - BSR

The valuation methodologies used by BSR to arrive at the value attributable to the equity shareholders of PH CPL and TPML are discussed hereunder:

Market Price Method

The market price of an equity share as quoted on a stock exchange is normally considered as the value of the equity shares of that company where such quotations are arising f[r] om the shares being regularly and freely traded in. Further, in the case of a transaction, where there is a question of evaluating the shares of one company against those of another, the volume of transactions and the number of shares available for trading on the stock exchange over a reasonable period would have to be of a comparable standard.

In the present case, the shares ofTPML are listed on BSE and NSE and there are regular transactions in its equity shares with reasonable volume. In the circumstances, the share price of TPML has been considered as suggested in regulation 164 of Securities and Exchange Board of India (Issue of Capital and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 20 I 8. Accordingly, higher of the below two methods has been taken for determining the value ofTPML under the market price methodology:

  • a) Average of the weekly high and low of the volume weighted average price during the last twenty six weeks preceding the Valuation Report date; and

  • b) Average of the weekly high and low of the volume weighted average price during the two weeks preceding the Valuation Report date.

Income Approach

The income approach used for the valuation of TPML and PH CPL includes combination of the rent capitalization method ("Rent Capitalization") and the Discounted Cash Flow ("DCF") method. The approach used by us has been summarized below:

  • Residential assets - all are currently under construction and have been valued using DCF method

  • Commercial/ retail leasable properties - assets which are fully operationalized (have stabilized Net operating Income (Nol)), have been valued using Rent Capitalization method.

  • Under construction/ not fully operational Commercial/ retail leasable properties - assets which are either under construction or are yet to be fully operational (i.e., properties still getting leased out) have been valued using combination of both the methods. For the initial years where the Nol is yet to be stabilized, the cash flows generated have been valued using DCF method. Thereafter, the terminal value has been calculated using Rent Capitalization method to evaluate stabilized commercial operations. The sum of the two results to the value of the property.

  • Finally, both TPML and PHCPL has been valued on Sum of the Parts ("SOTP") approach.

Page 8 of 12

71

Bansi S. Mehta & Co

BSR & Associates LLP

Recommendation of share exchange ratio for the proposed amalgamation of PHCPL with TPML

Under the DCF method, the future cash flows, including the capital expenditures, are projected over the forecast period and discounted to present at the weighted average cost of capital to arrive at the value of the property. This discount rate, which is applied to the free cash flows, should reflect the opportunity cost to all the capital providers (namely shareholders and lenders), weighted by their relative contribution to the total capital of the company.

To arrive at the total value available to the equity shareholders, value arrived above under Income approach is adjusted, as appropriate, for cash and cash equivalent, borrowings, surplus assets, contingent liabilities, value of investments, proposed dividend (if any) and other matters. The total value is then divided by fully diluted equity shares (considering ESOPs) to arrive at the value per share.

For the purpose of DCF valuation, the free cash flow forecast of the properties/ assets is based on Management Business Plan provided by the Management. Similarly, the Management has also provided the one year forward market rent applicable for the fully operational properties.

We must emphasize that realizations of free cash flow forecast will be dependent on the continuing validity of assumptions on which they are based. Our analysis, therefore, will not, and cannot be directed to providing any assurance about the achievability of the final projections. Since the financial forecasts relate to future, actual results are likely to be different from the projected results because events and circumstances do not occur as expected, and the differences may be material. While carrying out this engagement, we have relied extensively on historical information made available to us by the Management and the Management Business Plan for future related information. We did not carry out any validation procedures or due diligence with respect to the information provided/ extracted or carry out any verification of the assets or comment on the achievability and reasonableness of the assumptions underlying the Management Business Plan, save for satisfying ourselves to the extent possible that they are consistent with other information provided to us in the course of this engagement.

Net Asset Value (NA V) Method

The asset based valuation technique is based on the value of the underlying net assets of the business, either on a book value basis or realizable value basis or replacement cost basis. The cost approach is based on the assumption that a prudent investor would pay no more for an entity than the amount for which he could replace or re-create it or an asset with similar utility.

Considering the nature and size of the business operations we have not used NA V method for the purpose of evaluating the value ofTPML and PHCPL.

Computation of equity share Exchange ratio as per BSR Analysis

We have further independently assigned appropriate weightages to the value per equity share ofTPML and PH CPL arrived using Market price method, Income approach and NA V method to arrive at the value per equity share of PH CPL and TPML.

APPROACH & METHODOLOGY - BASIS OF TRANSACTION - BSMC

It is universally recognized that valuation is not an exact science and that estimating values necessarily involves selecting a method or approach that is suitable for the purpose.

For the purpose of arriving at valuation of the Valuation Subjects we have considered the valuation base as 'Fair Value'. O ur valuation, and th is report, is based on the premise of 'going concern value'. Any change in the valuation base, or the premise could have significant impact on our valuation exercise, and therefore, this Report.

It may be noted that the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI) on June 10, 2018 has issued the !CAI Valuation Standards ("IVS") effective for all the valuation reports issued on or after July 1, 2018. The IVS shall be mandatory for the valuation done under the Companies Act, 2013, and recommendatory for valuation carried out under other statutes/ requirements. We have given due cognizance to the same in carrying out the valuation exercise.

IVS 301 on Business Valuations deals with valuation of a business or business ownership interest (i.e. it includes valuation of equity shares).

IVS 301 specifies that generally, the following three approaches for valuation of business/business ownership interest are used:

  • I. Market approach

  • Income approach

  • Cost approach

Each of the above approaches are discussed in the following paragraphs.

Market Price Method:

This method involves determining the market price of an entity based on its traded price on the stock exchange over a reasonable period of time. We have determined the market price of shares ofTPML­ based on weighted average price on NSE over a period of six months prior to the Valuation Date. Equity Shares of PHCPL are not listed on any stock exchange and therefore, the Market Price Method is not used to determine the value of the equity shares of PHCPL.

Earnings based Method:

Under the Earnings Approach we compute the fair value based on the earnings.

We have valued TPML and PHCPL based on Sum of the Parts (SOTP) basis wherein we have capitalized earnings of operational portfolios (including projects housed under Investee Companies) with reasonable level of occupancies. For valuing companies/ projects under construction with lower level of occupancies or new projects, we have used the Discounted Cash Flow Method ("DCF") of Valuation.

Under the DCF Method, the future cash flows are appropriately discounted to arrive at a value of the business on a going concern basis. This value would, primarily, be based on the present value of such future cash flows generated.

Bansi S. Mehta & Co

BSR & Associates LLP

Recommendation of share exchange ratio for the proposed amalgamation of P HCP L with TPML

The value per share of TPM L and PH CPL is based on the value of proposionate stake in the operational portfolios under them.

Cost approach:

Cost Approach is a valuation approach that reflects the amount that would be required currently to replace the service capacity of an asset ( often referred to as current replacement cost).

IVS 30 I on Business Valuations and IVS I 03 on Valuation Approaches and Methods specify that common methodologies for the Cost Approach are the Replacement Cost Method and the Reproduction Cost Method. These methods involve determining the value of the asset based on the cost that would have to be incurred to recreate/replicate the asset with substantially the same utility as that of the asset under valuation.

Value of residential projects would be the present value of the likely realisation, to assume value of such project based on the full market value without considering the time factor would not be reflective of the true value of such project. The value of commercial property held for letting and retail malls can be best valued only on the basis of rental streams. To assume value based on cost approach for such prope1ty would be inconsistent with the intent of the companies, and would also not be in line with the basis of valuation viz. going concern.

Fair Valuation:

We have arrived at the fair value of equity shares of TPML by applying equal weights to the value derived under the Earnings based Method and the Market Price Method.

The fair value of the equity shares of PH CPL is derived based on the Earnings.

Attention may also be drawn to Regulation 158 of the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Issue of Capital and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2018 ("ICDR Regulation") which specifies that preferential issue of equity shares to shareholders of an unlisted entity pursuant to a National Company Law Tribunal approved scheme shall conform with the pricing provisions of preferential issue specified under Regulation 164 of the said regulations. Further, it may be noted that Regulation 164 specifies the base price for issue of shares on a preferential basis. In the Proposed Amalgamation, PHCPL, an unlisted entity is amalgamating with TPML, a listed entity. We have therefore, given due cognizance to the base price derived using the formula prescribed under ICDR Regulations after considering the fair value ofTPML while determining the swap ratio.

This Valuation Report, its contents and the results herein are specific to (i) the purpose of valuation agreed as per the terms of our engagement; and (ii) the date of this Valuation Report and (iii) the latest available financial statements of the Companies and other information provided by the Management or taken f[r] om public sources till 7 August 2019.

A valuation of this nature is necessarily based on (a) prevailing stock market, financial, economic and other conditions in general and industry trends in particular as in effect on and (b) the information made available to us as of, the date hereof. Events occurring after the date hereof may affect this Valuation Report and the assumptions used in preparing it, and we do not assume any obligation to update, revise or reaffirm this Valuation Report.

The ultimate analysis will have to be influenced by the exercise of judicious discretion by the Valuer and judgment taking into accounts all the relevant factors. There will always be several factors, e.g. management capability, present and prospective competition, yield on comparable securities, market sentiment, etc. which are not evident from the face of the balance sheets but which will strongly influence the worth of a share. This concept is also recognized in judicial decisions.

The recommendation(s) rendered in this Valuation Report only represent our recommendation(s) based upon information received by the Companies till 7 August 2019 and other sources and the said recommendation(s) shall be considered to be in the nature of non-binding advice (our recommendation will however not be used for advising anybody to take buy or sell decision, for which specific opinion needs to be taken from expert advisors). Further, the determination of Equity Share Exchange Ratio is not a precise science and the conclusions arrived at in many cases will, of necessity, be subjective and dependent on the exercise of individual judgment. There is, therefore, no indisputable single Equity Share Exchange Ratio. While we have provided our recommendation of the Equity Share Exchange Ratio based on the information available to us and within the scope and constraints of our engagement, others may have a different opinion as to the Equity Share Exchange Ratio of the equity shares ofTPML and PH CPL. You acknowledge and agree that you have the final responsibility for the determination of the Equity Share Exchange Ratio at which the proposed amalgamation shall take place and factors other than our Valuation Repo1t will need to be taken into account in determining the Equity Share Exchange Ratio; these will include your own assessment of the Transaction and may include the input of other professional advisors.

In the course of the valuation, we were provided with both written and verbal information, including market, technical, financial and operating data. In accordance with the terms of our engagement, we have assumed and relied upon, without independent verification, (i) the accuracy of the information that was publicly available and formed a substantial basis for this Valuation Report and (ii) the accuracy of information made available to us by the Companies. We have not carried out a due diligence or audit of the Companies for the purpose of this engagement, nor have we independently investigated or otherwise verified the data provided. We are not legal or regulatory advisors with respect to legal and regulatory matters for the Transaction. We do not express any form of assurance that the financial information or other information as prepared and provided by the Companies is accurate.

of any doubt. Accordingly, we do not express any opinion or offer any form of assurance regarding its accuracy and completeness.

Our conclusions are based on these assumptions and information given by/ on behalf of the Companies. The Management have indicated to us that they have understood that any omissions, inaccuracies or misstatements may materially affect our valuation analysis/ results. Accordingly, we assume no responsibility for any errors in the information furnished by the Companies and its impact on the Valuation Report. Also, we assume no responsibility for technical information (if any) furnished by the Companies. However, nothing has come to our attention to indicate that the information provided was materially mis-stated/ incorrect or would not afford reasonable grounds upon which to base the Valuation Repo1t. We do not imply and it should not be construed that we have verified any of the information provided to us, or that our inquiries could have verified any matter, which a more extensive examination might disclose.

In no event shall we be liable for any loss, damages, cost or expenses arising in any way from fraudulent acts, misrepresentations or willful default on part of the Companies, their directors, employees or agents. In no circumstances shall the liability of a Valuer, its partners, its directors or employees, relating to the services provided in connection with the engagement set out in this Valuation Report shall exceed the amount paid to such Valuer in respect of the fees charged by it for these services.

The Valuation Report assumes that the specified Companies comply fully with relevant laws and regulations applicable in all its areas of operations unless otherwise stated, and that the specified Companies will be managed in a competent and responsible manner. Further, except as specifically stated to the contrary, this Valuation Report has given no consideration to matters of a legal nature, including issues of legal title and compliance with local laws, and litigation and other contingent liabilities that are not recorded in period balance sheet of the specified Companies. Our conclusion of value assumes that the assets and liabilities of the specified Companies, reflected in their respective latest balance sheets remain intact as of the Valuation Report date.

The financial forecasts used in the preparation of the Report reflects judgment of management of Companies, based on present circumstances prevailing around the Valuation Date, as to the most likely set of conditions and the course of action it is most likely to take.

APPROACH & METHODOLOGY - BASIS OF TRANSACTION

The Transaction contemplates amalgamation of PHCPL with TPML. Arriving at the Equity Share Exchange Ratio for the proposed amalgamation of the above mentioned companies would require determining the value of PHCPL in terms of the value of the equity shares ofTPML. These values are to be determined independently but on a relative basis, and without considering the proposed Transaction.

There are several commonly used and accepted methods for determining the value of the equity shares of a company, which have been considered in the present case by Valuers independently, to the extent relevant and applicable, including:

  • I . Market Price method

  • Income Approach/ Earnings based Method

  • Net Asset Value method (NA V)

It should be understood that the valuation of any company or its assets is inherently imprecise and is subject to certain uncertainties and contingencies, all of which are difficult to predict and are beyond our control. In performing our analysis, we made numerous assumptions with respect to industry performance and general business and economic conditions, many of which are beyond the control of the Companies. In addition, this valuation will fluctuate with changes in prevailing market conditions, the conditions and prospects, financial and otherwise, of the Companies, and other factors which generally influence the valuation of companies and their assets.

The application of any patticular method of valuation depends on the purpose for which the valuation is done. Although different values may exist for different purposes, it cannot be too strongly emphasized that a valuer can only arrive at one value for one purpose. Our choice of methodology of valuation has been arrived at using usual and conventional methodologies adopted for a transaction of a similar nature, regulatory guidelines and our reasonable judgment, in an independent and bona fide manner based on our previous experience of assignments of a similar nature.

The valuation methodologies used by BSR and BSMC to arrive at the value attributable to the equity shareholders of TPML and PHCPL are discussed in Annexure IA and 1B respectively (Annexure JA er referred to as Annexure.s):

BASIS OF EQUITY SHARE EXCHANGE RATIO

The basis of amalgamation of PHCPL into TPML would have to be determined after taking into consideration all the factors and methodologies mentioned hereinabove. Though different values have been arrived at under each of the above methodologies, for the purposes of recommending an Equity Share Exchange Ratio of equity shares, it is necessary to arrive at a single value for the equity shares ofTPML and PHCPL. lt is however important to note that in doing so we are not attempting to arrive at the absolute equity values of the Companies but at their relative values to facilitate the determination of a fair Equity Share Exchange Ratio. For th is purpose, it is necessary to give appropriate weights to the values arrived at under each methodology.

The Equity Share Exchange Ratio has been arrived at on the basis ofa relative equity valuation of the Companies based on the various approaches/ methods explained herein earlier and various qualitative factors relevant to each company and the business dynamics and growth potentials of the businesses of the Businesses, having regard to information base, key underlying assumptions and limitations.

As considered appropriate, we have independently applied methodologies discussed in the Annexures and arrived at the value per share of the Companies. To arrive at the consensus on the equity share exchange ratio for the proposed amalgamation, suitable minor adjustments/ rounding off have been done.

In view of the above, and on consideration of the relevant factors and circumstances as discussed and outlined hereinabove, we recommend the Equity Share Exchange Ratio of equity shares for amalgamation of PH CPL into TPML at 627 (six hundred twenty seven) equity shares ofTPML oflNR 2 each fully paid up for every 100 (hundred) equity shares of PH CPL of INR 10 each fully paid up.

Our Valuation Report and Equity Share Exchange Ratio is based on the current equity share capital structure ofTPML and PHCPL as mentioned earlier in this Report. Any variation in the equity capital ofTPML and PHCPL may have material impact on the share exchange ratio.

Respectfully submitted.

Annexure lA

APPROACH & METHODOLOGY - BASIS OF TRANSACTION - BSR

The valuation methodologies used by BSR to arrive at the value attributable to the equity shareholders of PH CPL and TPML are discussed hereunder:

Market Price Method

The market price of an equity share as quoted on a stock exchange is normally considered as the value of the equity shares of that company where such quotations are arising f[r] om the shares being regularly and freely traded in. Further, in the case of a transaction, where there is a question of evaluating the shares of one company against those of another, the volume of transactions and the number of shares available for trading on the stock exchange over a reasonable period would have to be of a comparable standard.

In the present case, the shares ofTPML are listed on BSE and NSE and there are regular transactions in its equity shares with reasonable volume. In the circumstances, the share price of TPML has been considered as suggested in regulation 164 of Securities and Exchange Board of India (Issue of Capital and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 20 I 8. Accordingly, higher of the below two methods has been taken for determining the value ofTPML under the market price methodology:

  • a) Average of the weekly high and low of the volume weighted average price during the last twenty six weeks preceding the Valuation Report date; and

  • b) Average of the weekly high and low of the volume weighted average price during the two weeks preceding the Valuation Report date.

Income Approach

The income approach used for the valuation of TPML and PH CPL includes combination of the rent capitalization method ("Rent Capitalization") and the Discounted Cash Flow ("DCF") method. The approach used by us has been summarized below:

  • Residential assets - all are currently under construction and have been valued using DCF method

  • Commercial/ retail leasable properties - assets which are fully operationalized (have stabilized Net operating Income (Nol)), have been valued using Rent Capitalization method.

  • Under construction/ not fully operational Commercial/ retail leasable properties - assets which are either under construction or are yet to be fully operational (i.e., properties still getting leased out) have been valued using combination of both the methods. For the initial years where the Nol is yet to be stabilized, the cash flows generated have been valued using DCF method. Thereafter, the terminal value has been calculated using Rent Capitalization method to evaluate stabilized commercial operations. The sum of the two results to the value of the property.

  • Finally, both TPML and PHCPL has been valued on Sum of the Parts ("SOTP") approach.

The Rent Capitalization method estimates the value of an income generating property based on the level and quality of income the property generates. It capitalizes the stabilized NOi (current year/ one year forward) at a rate known as capitalization rate or cap rate. This cap rate is the rate that is used by the market in recent transactions to capitalize future income into a market value. Nol is a measure of ed from property after deducting operating expenses and therefore, considered as sure of income before tax.

Bansi S. Mehta & Co

BSR & Associates LLP

Recommendation of share exchange ratio for the proposed amalgamation of PHCPL with TPML

Under the DCF method, the future cash flows, including the capital expenditures, are projected over the forecast period and discounted to present at the weighted average cost of capital to arrive at the value of the property. This discount rate, which is applied to the free cash flows, should reflect the opportunity cost to all the capital providers (namely shareholders and lenders), weighted by their relative contribution to the total capital of the company.

To arrive at the total value available to the equity shareholders, value arrived above under Income approach is adjusted, as appropriate, for cash and cash equivalent, borrowings, surplus assets, contingent liabilities, value of investments, proposed dividend (if any) and other matters. The total value is then divided by fully diluted equity shares (considering ESOPs) to arrive at the value per share.

For the purpose of DCF valuation, the free cash flow forecast of the properties/ assets is based on Management Business Plan provided by the Management. Similarly, the Management has also provided the one year forward market rent applicable for the fully operational properties.

We must emphasize that realizations of free cash flow forecast will be dependent on the continuing validity of assumptions on which they are based. Our analysis, therefore, will not, and cannot be directed to providing any assurance about the achievability of the final projections. Since the financial forecasts relate to future, actual results are likely to be different from the projected results because events and circumstances do not occur as expected, and the differences may be material. While carrying out this engagement, we have relied extensively on historical information made available to us by the Management and the Management Business Plan for future related information. We did not carry out any validation procedures or due diligence with respect to the information provided/ extracted or carry out any verification of the assets or comment on the achievability and reasonableness of the assumptions underlying the Management Business Plan, save for satisfying ourselves to the extent possible that they are consistent with other information provided to us in the course of this engagement.

Net Asset Value (NA V) Method

The asset based valuation technique is based on the value of the underlying net assets of the business, either on a book value basis or realizable value basis or replacement cost basis. The cost approach is based on the assumption that a prudent investor would pay no more for an entity than the amount for which he could replace or re-create it or an asset with similar utility.

Considering the nature and size of the business operations we have not used NA V method for the purpose of evaluating the value ofTPML and PHCPL.

Computation of equity share Exchange ratio as per BSR Analysis

We have further independently assigned appropriate weightages to the value per equity share ofTPML and PH CPL arrived using Market price method, Income approach and NA V method to arrive at the value per equity share of PH CPL and TPML.

Annexure lB

APPROACH & METHODOLOGY - BASIS OF TRANSACTION - BSMC

It is universally recognized that valuation is not an exact science and that estimating values necessarily involves selecting a method or approach that is suitable for the purpose.

For the purpose of arriving at valuation of the Valuation Subjects we have considered the valuation base as 'Fair Value'. O ur valuation, and th is report, is based on the premise of 'going concern value'. Any change in the valuation base, or the premise could have significant impact on our valuation exercise, and therefore, this Report.

It may be noted that the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI) on June 10, 2018 has issued the !CAI Valuation Standards ("IVS") effective for all the valuation reports issued on or after July 1, 2018. The IVS shall be mandatory for the valuation done under the Companies Act, 2013, and recommendatory for valuation carried out under other statutes/ requirements. We have given due cognizance to the same in carrying out the valuation exercise.

IVS 301 on Business Valuations deals with valuation of a business or business ownership interest (i.e. it includes valuation of equity shares).

IVS 301 specifies that generally, the following three approaches for valuation of business/business ownership interest are used:

  • I. Market approach

  • Income approach

  • Cost approach

Each of the above approaches are discussed in the following paragraphs.

Market Price Method:

This method involves determining the market price of an entity based on its traded price on the stock exchange over a reasonable period of time. We have determined the market price of shares ofTPML­ based on weighted average price on NSE over a period of six months prior to the Valuation Date. Equity Shares of PHCPL are not listed on any stock exchange and therefore, the Market Price Method is not used to determine the value of the equity shares of PHCPL.

Earnings based Method:

Under the Earnings Approach we compute the fair value based on the earnings.

We have valued TPML and PHCPL based on Sum of the Parts (SOTP) basis wherein we have capitalized earnings of operational portfolios (including projects housed under Investee Companies) with reasonable level of occupancies. For valuing companies/ projects under construction with lower level of occupancies or new projects, we have used the Discounted Cash Flow Method ("DCF") of Valuation.

Under the DCF Method, the future cash flows are appropriately discounted to arrive at a value of the business on a going concern basis. This value would, primarily, be based on the present value of such future cash flows generated.

Bansi S. Mehta & Co

BSR & Associates LLP

Recommendation of share exchange ratio for the proposed amalgamation of P HCP L with TPML

The value per share of TPM L and PH CPL is based on the value of proposionate stake in the operational portfolios under them.

Cost approach:

Cost Approach is a valuation approach that reflects the amount that would be required currently to replace the service capacity of an asset ( often referred to as current replacement cost).

IVS 30 I on Business Valuations and IVS I 03 on Valuation Approaches and Methods specify that common methodologies for the Cost Approach are the Replacement Cost Method and the Reproduction Cost Method. These methods involve determining the value of the asset based on the cost that would have to be incurred to recreate/replicate the asset with substantially the same utility as that of the asset under valuation.

Value of residential projects would be the present value of the likely realisation, to assume value of such project based on the full market value without considering the time factor would not be reflective of the true value of such project. The value of commercial property held for letting and retail malls can be best valued only on the basis of rental streams. To assume value based on cost approach for such prope1ty would be inconsistent with the intent of the companies, and would also not be in line with the basis of valuation viz. going concern.

Fair Valuation:

We have arrived at the fair value of equity shares of TPML by applying equal weights to the value derived under the Earnings based Method and the Market Price Method.

The fair value of the equity shares of PH CPL is derived based on the Earnings.

Attention may also be drawn to Regulation 158 of the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Issue of Capital and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2018 ("ICDR Regulation") which specifies that preferential issue of equity shares to shareholders of an unlisted entity pursuant to a National Company Law Tribunal approved scheme shall conform with the pricing provisions of preferential issue specified under Regulation 164 of the said regulations. Further, it may be noted that Regulation 164 specifies the base price for issue of shares on a preferential basis. In the Proposed Amalgamation, PHCPL, an unlisted entity is amalgamating with TPML, a listed entity. We have therefore, given due cognizance to the base price derived using the formula prescribed under ICDR Regulations after considering the fair value ofTPML while determining the swap ratio.

APPROACH & METIIODOLOGY - 8/\SIS OF TIUSSACI 10\'

The Transaction contcmplatcs amalgamation of Pl !CPL with TPMI.. Arriving al 1hc Equily Share Exchange Ratio for the proposed amalgamalion of lhc above mentioned companies would require determining the value of PH CPL in lerms of 1hc value of the cquily shares of TPM L. These values arc to be determined independently but on a relative basis, and without considering the proposed Transaction.

There arc several commonly used and accepted methods for determining the value of 1hc equity shares of a company, which have been considered in the present case by Valuers indcpcndcnlly, to the extent rclevanl and applicable, including:

  • I. Market Price method

  • Income Approach/ Earnings based Method

  • ct Asset Value method ( AV)

It should be understood that the valuation or any company or its a�scts is inherently imprecise and is subject to certain uncertainties and contingencies. all of" hich arc difficult to predict and arc beyond my control. In pcrfonning my analysis, I made numerous assumplions wi1h respect lo industry performance and general business and economic conditions, many of which arc beyond the conlrol of the Companies. In addition. lhis valuation will nuc1ua1c with changes in prevailing market conditions, the conditions and prospects, financial and otherwise, of the Companies, and other factors which generally influence the valuation of companies and their assets.

The valuation methodologies used by me to arrive at the value attributable lo the equity harcholders of TPML and PHCPL arc discussed in Anncxurc I.

BASIS OF EQUITY SHARE EXCHANGE RATIO

The basis of amalgamation of PHCPL into TPML would have to be determined al1cr taking 11110 consideration all the factors and methodologies mentioned hercinabovc. Though different values have been arrived at under each of the above methodologies. for the purposes of recommending an Equity Share Exchange Ratio of equity shares. it is necessary to arri,,e at a �inglc value for the equity shares ofTPML and PIICPL. It is however important to note that in doing so I am not a11cmp1ing to arri, c at the absolute equity values of the Companies but at their relative Htlucs to facilitate the determination of a fair Equity Share Exchange Ratio. For this purpose. it is nci.:cssary to give appropriate weights 10 the values arrived at under each methodology.

The Equity Share Exchange Ratio has been arrived at on the basis or a relative equity valuation of the Companies based on the various approaches/ methods explained herein earlier and various qualitative factors relevant to each company and the business dynamics and growth potentials of the businesses of the Businesses, having regard to information base, key underlying assumptions and limitations.

In view of the above, and on consideration of the relevant factors and circumstances as discussed and outlined hereinabovc, I recommend the Equity Share Exchange Ratio of equity shares for amalgamation of Pl ICPL into TPM L at 627 (six hundred twenty seven) equity shares of TPM L of INR 2 each fully paid up for every 100 (hundred) equity shares of PH CPL of!NR IO each fully paid up.

My Valuation Report and Equity Share Exchange Ratio is based on the current cquuy share capital structure ofTPML and PI-ICPL as mentioned earlier in this Report t\ny vana11011 111 the equity cap11al ofTPMI. and PHCPL may have material impact on the share exchc1ngc ratio.

Respectfully submitted.

Drushti R. De.wi

Anncxurc I

APPROACII & .METHODOLOGY - BASIS OF TRA�SACTIO�

It is universally recognized that valuation is not an exact science and that estimating values necessarily involves selecting a method or approach that is suitable for the purpose.

For the purpose of arriving at valuation of the Valuation Subjects I have considered the valuation base as 'Fair Value'. My valuation, and this report, is based on the premise of' going concern value'. Any change in the valuation base, or the premise could have significant impact on my valuation exercise. and therefore, this Report.

II may be noted that the Institute of Chartered Accouniants of India (!CAI) on June I 0.2018 has is:-ui:d the !CAI Valuation Standards ("IVS") cffccti,e for all the ,aluation reports issued on or after Jul1 I. 2018. The IVS shall be mandatory !'or the ,aluation t.lonc under the Compan11.:s 1\l't. 2013, and rccommcndaLOry for valuation carried out under other statutes/ requirements. I have given due cognizance to the same in carrying out the , aluation exercise.

I VS 30 I on Business Valuations deals with valuation of a business or business o,\ ncrship interest ( 1.c. it includes valuation of equity shares).

rvs 301 specifics that generally, the following three approaches for valuation of business/business ownership interest are used:

  • I . Market approach

  • Income approach

  • Cost approach

Each of the above approaches arc discussed in the following paragraphs.

Market Price Method:

This method involves determining the market r,ricc or an entity based on its traded prit:c on the stock exchange over a reasonable period of time I have determined the market price of' ,hares of TPJ.1 I.­ based on weighted average price on NSE o, er a period of s1-.: month, prior to the Val11,11wn Date. Equ1t) Shares of PH CPL arc not listed on any stock exchange and therefore. the Market Prn.:c Method i� not used to determine the value of the equity shares of Pl ICPI..

Earnings based Method:

Under the Earnings Approach the fair value is computed based on the earnings.

I have valued TPML and PIICPL based on Sum of the Parts (SOTP) basis wherein I have capital i1ed earnings of operational portfolios (including projects housed under Investec Companies) with reasonable level of occupancies. For valuing companies/ projects under construction with lower level of occupancies or new projects, I have used the Discounted Cash Flow Method ("'DCF .. ) of Valuation.

Under the DCF Method, the future cash nows arc appropriately discot1ntcd to arrive at a value of the business on a going concern basis. This value would, primarily, be based on the present value of SLH.:h future cash nows generated.

The value per share ofTPML and Pl ICPL is based on the n1luc or proposionatc stake in the opcra11onal portfolios under them.

Drushti R. Desai

Va/11ario11 Repori

Cost approach:

Cost /\pproach is a valuation approach that reflects the amount that would be required currently to replace the service capacity of an asset (often referred to as current replacement co�t ).

fVS 301 on Business Valuations and IVS 103 on Valuation /\pproachcs and Methods specif) tha1 common methodologies for the Cost Approach are the Replacement Cost Method and the Rcproducuon Cost Method. These methods involve determining the value of the asset based on the cost that would have to be incurred to rccrcatc/replicatc the asset with substantially the same utility as that of the asset under valuation.

Value of residential projects would be the present value of the likely realisation. to assume value of such project based on the full market value without considering the lime factor would 1101 be reflective of the true value of such project. The value of commercial property held for Jelling and retail malls can be best valued only on the basis of rental streams. To assume va lue based on cost approach for such properly would be inconsistent with the intent oflhc companies. and would also 1101 be 111 line with the basis of valuation viz. going concern.

Fair Valuation:

I have arrived at the fair value of equity shares ofTPMI. b) applying equal ,,eights to the ,aim:: deri,cd under the Earnings based Method and the Market Price Method.

The fair value of the equity shares of PH CPL is derived based on the Earnings.

Attention may also be drawn to Regulation 158 of the Securities and Exchange Board of India (ls,-uc of Capital and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2018 ("ICDR Regulation") which specifies that preferential issue of equity shares to shareholders of an unlisted entity pursuant to a Nat ion al Company Law Tribunal approved scheme shall conform with the pricing provisions of preferential issue specified under Regulation 164 of the said regulations. Further, it may be noted that Regulation 164 specifics the base price for issue of shares on a preferential basis. In the Proposed /\malgama1ion, PHCPL. an unlisted entity is amalgamating with TPML.. a listed entity. I have therefore, given due cognizance 10 the base price derived using the formula prescribed under ICDR Regulations after considering the fair value ofTPML while determining the SMlf) ratio.

Dear Sir,

Sub: Proposed amalgamation of Phoenix Hospitality Company Private Limited ("PHCPL") into The Phoenix Mills Limited ("PML")

PML has requested us to issue a fairness opinion ("Opinipn") from a financial point of view of the Share Exchange Ratio (as defined below) in relation to the Proposed Transaction.

Proposed Transaction: PML and PHCPL are proposing to enter a scheme of amalgamation ('Scheme of Amalgamation'), which envisages the amalgamation of PHCPL into PML and dissolution of PHCPL.

Our scope is restricted to providing an Opinion on the Share Exchange Ratio for the amalgamation of PHCPL into PML.

In arriving at our Opinion, we have reviewed historical financials and future financial and limited business projections and listed stock price data. We have also reviewed certain publicly available information, and have taken into account such other matters as we deemed necessary including our assessment of general economic, market and monetary conditions. We have also reviewed the report jointly issued to the management of PML and PHCPL by BSR & Associates LLP and Bansi S. Mehta & Co. dated August 7, 2019 for the share exchange ratio recommended as 627 (Six Hundred and Twenty Seven only) fully paid up equity shares of PML of face value INR 2 each in exchange of every 100 (One Hundred only) fully paid up equity shares of PHCPL of face value INR 10 each (the "Share Exchange Ratio"). The shareholding of PML in PHCPL as on the record date will get cancelled in accordance with the Scheme of Amalgamation.

We have also assumed that the final Scheme of Amalgamation will be substantially the same as the scheme discussed with and reviewed by us.

We have had discussions with members of the management of PHCPL and PML on the past and current business operations of the concerned businesses, their future prospects and operations, and have received management representation letter from PML and PHCPL dated August 7, 2019 ("Management Representation Letters").

Further, we have had discussions with BSR & Associates LLP and Bansi S. Mehta & Co., the valuation advisors, on such matters which we believed were necessary or appropriate for the purpose of issuing this Opinion.

Based on our examination and according to the information and explanation provided to us, we note that the Proposed Transaction entails amalgamation of PHCPL into PML and dissolution of PHCPL.

We assume no responsibility for the legal, tax, accounting or structuring matters including, but not limited to, legal or title concerns. Title to all subject busi·ness assets is assumed good and marketable and we would urge PML and PHCPL to carry out an independent assessment of the same prior to entering into any transaction, after giving due weightage to the results of such assessment. We have further assumed that the Proposed Transaction would be carried out in compliance with applicable laws, rules and regulations.

In giving our Opinion, we have assumed and relied upon, without independent verification, the accuracy and completeness of all information supplied or otherwise made available to us either in verbal or written form, discussed with or reviewed by or for us, or publicly available. We have been given to understand that all information required by us that was relevant for the purpose of our exercise was disclosed to us. We have not conducted any evaluation or appraisal of any assets or liabilities of PML or PHCPL nor have we evaluated the solvency or fair value of PML or PHCPL, under any laws relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or similar matters. In addition, we have not assumed any obligation to conduct any physical inspection of the properties or facilities of PML or PHCPL.

Our Opinion does not factor overall economic environment risk, material adverse change and other risks and is purely based on the information and representations provided to us.

We express no view as to, and our Opinion does not address, the underlying business decision of PML and PHCPL to effect the Proposed Transaction or the merits of the Proposed Transaction. Our Opinion does not constitute a recommendation to any shareholder or creditor of PML and PHCPL as to how such shareholder or creditor should vote on the Proposed Transaction or any matter related thereto. We are not expressing any opinion herein as to the prices at which the shares of PML will trade following the announcement or consummation of the proposed transaction or as to the prices at which the shares of PML may be transacted.

Our Opinion is necessarily based on financial, economic, market and other conditions as in effect on the date of this issuing the Opinion, and the information made available to us as of, the date hereof, including the capital structure of PHCPL and PML.

We will receive a fee for our services in connection with the delivery of this Opinion from PML. In addition, PML has agreed to indemnify us in relation to our engagement in providing the Opinion.

We and our affiliates in the past five years have provided, and currently provide, services to PML and their affiliates unrelated to the Proposed Transaction for which services we and such affiliates have

received and expect to receive compensation, including, without limitation as creditors and as financial advisors for the purchase/sale of assets/businesses/securities by/to PML (as the case may be).

In the ordinary course of business, we and our affiliates may actively trade or hold securities of companies that may be the subject matter of this transaction for our own account or for the account of our customers and, accordingly, may at any time hold long or short position in such securities and may vote at any general meeting as they' deem fit. In addition, we and our affiliates maintain relationships with PML and their respective affiliates.

  3. The transfer and vesting of the undertakings and business of PHCPL in Company will be effective from Appointed Date.

- Effect of the Scheme of Amalgamation on equity shareholders (promoter and non promoter shareholders) and Key Managerial Personnel of PML:

INTERNAL RISK FACTORS

The below mentioned Risk factors include the Risk factors for the Company, its subsidiaries and Associates:

  • The widespread coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak has had an adverse impact on our business leading to temporary shutdown of our malls and office spaces, delay in launch of a new mall and construction delays in the under construction malls and office spaces, amongst others. The slowdown in getting lease commitments for new or vacated spaces at our properties due to economic slowdown and cost pressure faced by corporations globally, could affect the financial returns of our assets. Further the ultimate effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on the business and operations may, however, differ from that assessed by us and therefore, we will continue to monitor developments to identify significant uncertainties that may

119

have an effect on our business and operations. Further, our Auditors have also drawn attention to a detailed note, stating the impact of Corona virus disease (Covid-19) on the operations of the Company as an emphasis of matter in their Audit report dated September 23, 2020 issued on the consolidated audited financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2020 and the audit report dated March 30, 2021 issued on the consolidated financial statements for the nine months period ended December 31, 2020.

• Low occupancy levels of the hotels owned by our Subsidiaries and / or Associates and inability to find new retail or commercial office clients or renew leases for the retail and commercial office properties, may adversely affect the business, profitability and financial performance of such subsidiaries and associates, which would have an impact on our business.

  • Inability to sell the ongoing residential projects and other projects owned by our subsidiaries and/or associates at expected prices could materially and adversely affect future revenues, cash flows and earnings.

• Risks relating to holding the good title to the properties owned by our subsidiaries and/or associates and their inability to obtain title insurance guaranteeing title or land development rights and further to obtain various approvals, licenses or permits in a timely manner or failure to comply with the terms of any of these approvals or licenses or applicable laws could adversely affect the financial condition and ability to undertake business activities.

• Our subsidiaries and/or associates rely on independent contractors and other skilled third parties to execute the projects. We cannot assure you these third parties will continue to be available at reasonable costs or at all. As a result, we may be required to make additional investments to ensure the adequate performance and delivery of contracted services and any delay in project execution could adversely affect our business and financial condition.

• Our subsidiaries and/or associates may be subject to third-party indemnification, liability claims or invocation of guarantees, which may adversely affect the business, cash flows, results of operations and reputation.

• One of our associate company, Palladium Constructions Private Limited, has entered into hotel operations and related agreements with a hotel operator to receive operation and marketing services in relation to the hotel. If that hotel operator decides to terminate or not renew any agreements, it may impact our profitability and business operations.

  • There are outstanding legal proceedings against our Promoters, directors and subsidiaries, which if decided against us or them, may adversely affect the business, financial condition and results of operations.

  • The business of our subsidiaries and/or associates requires debt. Any disruption in debt financing, may have a material adverse impact on the business, cash flows and financial performance.

the case was selected for scrutiny assessment. The Assessing Officer (“AO”) concluded the assessment for assessment year 2005-06 by passing the assessment order against all the partners of Assessee and made the following additions:

Court

  1. Deemed Dividend u/s 2(22)(e) of Income Tax Act (“IT Act”) – Rs.4,79,744.

  2. Unexplained Cash Credit u/s 68 of IT Act – Rs. 50,00,000.

  3. Long Term Capital Gains (‘LTCG’) claimed as exempt (April 2004 to September 2004) – Rs.75,20,351.

Assesse has submitted to the Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeal) in respect of 3[rd] addition that Assesse has wrongly considered LTCG of Rs.75,20,351 instead of Rs.10,49,477 and balance amount of Rs.66,59,023 was liable to tax as LTCG and Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeal) has accepted the same. The Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeal) dismissed the Assessee’s appeal in respect of first two additions and assessed the Long Term Capital Gain of Rs.66,59,023/- instead of Rs.75,20,351/-.

Then Assesse filed an appeal for above first two addition i.e. Deemed Dividend and Unexplained Cash Credit before Hon'ble Income Tax Appellate Tribunal (ITAT) and the Hon'ble Income Tax Appellate Tribunal (ITAT) deleted the addition of Rs.50,00,000/ on account of unexplained cash credit.

Cash Credit before Hon'ble Income Tax Appellate
Tribunal (ITAT) and the Hon'ble Income Tax
Appellate Tribunal (ITAT) deleted the addition of
Rs.50,00,000/ on account of unexplained cash
credit.
2. The Assessing Officer, after Commissioner of Mrs. Amla The matter Rs.6,96,200
Income Tax (Appeal) order, levied penalty for 100% Ruia, Mr. has been
of tax sought to be evaded. Penalty has been levied Atul Ruia admitted by

Gayatri
1. Unexplained Cash Credit u/s 68 of Income Tax Ruia
Act – Rs.50,00,000
2. Long Term Capital Gains - Rs.66,59,023
The Hon'ble Income Tax Appellate Tribunal
(“ITAT”) deleted the addition on account of
unexplained cash credit of Rs.50,00,000/- hence
penalty to the extent of this amount also got
deleted by Assessing Officer and Assessing Officer
passed the order in respect of penalty proceeding
and recalculated thepenaltyof Rs.6,96,200.

123

Consequently, Assessee filed an appeal to the Hon'ble ITAT for penalty proceedings of Rs.6,96,200/- but the Hon'ble ITAT dismissed the appeal of Assessee and Commissioner of Income Tax had given the sanction for prosecution against the Assessee. The Assessee has now made an appeal in High Court against the ITAT Order.

LIMITED REVIEW REPORT

To, The Board of Directors The Phoenix Mills Limited

LIMITED REVIEW REPORT ON THE UNAUDITED STANDALONE RESULTS OF THE PHOENIX MILLS LIMITED FOR THE QUARTER AND NINE MONTHS ENDED 31[st ] DECEMBER, 2020

  1. We have reviewed the accompanying statement of unaudited standalone financial results of The Phoenix Mills Limited (the 'Company') for the quarter ended December 31, 2020 and year to date from 1st April, 2020 to 31st December, 2020 (the "Statement") attached herewith, being submitted by the Company pursuant to the requirement of Regulation 33 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, as amended ("the Listing Regulations").

  2. The preparation of the Statement in accordance with the recognition and measurement principles laid down in Indian Accounting Standard 34, (Ind AS 34) "Interim Financial Reporting", prescribed under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013, as amended, read with relevant rules issued thereunder and other accounting principles generally accepted in India, read with the circular is the responsibility of the Company's management and has been approved by the Board of Directors of the Company. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the Statement based on our review.

  3. We conducted our review in accordance with the Standard on Review Engagements (SRE) 2410, "Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity" issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India. This standard requires that we plan and perform the review to obtain moderate assurance as to whether the Statement is free of material misstatement. A review is limited primarily to inquiries of company personnel and analytical procedures applied to financial data and thus provide less assurance than an audit. We have not performed an audit and accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

  4. Based on our review conducted as above, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying statement prepared in accordance with the recognition and measurement principles laid down in applicable Indian Accounting Standards ('Ind AS') specifies under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013, as amended, read with relevant rules issued there under and other recognised accounting practices and policies has not disclosed the information required to be disclosed in terms of Regulation, read with the Circular, including the manner in which it is to be disclosed, or that it contains any material misstatement.

  5. We draw attention to Note 5 of the Statement, which describes the company's management evaluation of impact of Covid 19 pandemic on the future business operations and it's consequential effects on the carrying value of assets as on 31st Dec, 2020. The Management has made a best estimate of the revenue recoverable for the nine months period ended 31st Dec., 2020 on the basis stated in the said Note. In view of uncertain economic conditions arising out of pandemic, the management's evaluation of impact on subsequent periods and of amounts of revenue recognised during the period is highly dependent upon conditions as they evolve. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.

The above Financial Results of the Company for the quarter and nine months ended 31st December, 2020 have been reviewed by the Audit Committee and approved by the Board of Directors at their respective meetings held on 12th February, 2021. 2 The company has issued 93,865 Equity Shares under the ESOP scheme at an exercise price of Rs. 333.90/- per equity share (including premium of Rs. 331.90 per equity share), during the quarter ended 31st December, 2020. 3 The Board of Directors approved the Scheme of Amalgamation ("Scheme") under section 230 to 232 of the Companies Act, 2013 for merger of Phoenix Hospitality Company Private Limited ("PHCPL"), a subsidiary company with the Company from the Appointed Date 1st April, 2019. The effect of the merger would be accounted for after the Scheme is approved by National Company Law Tribunal ("NCL T") and other authorities.

4 Other income for the current quarter includes profit on sale of Property Plant & Equipment (certain commercial units and certain parcels of undivided share in land) aggregating to � 25,315.46 Lakhs to wholly owned subsidaries.

5 In preparation of these results, the Company has taken into account internal and external sources of information to assess possible impacts of the pandemic, including but not limited to assessment of liquidity and going concern, recoverable values of its financial and non-financial assets.

For recognition of revenues from mall operations, management has considered certain concessions/relief on rentals extended to its retailers/licensees for the period of lockdown as well as some further period considering the extended impact of the pandemic. Such concessions are determined based on discussions concluded with retailers/licensees on case to case basis. Where discussions are ongoing, the revenue is accrued considering the management estimate of most likely agreeable amounts of concession based on its ongoing discussions and the relationship with the retailers / licensee.

Based on the current estimates, the management expects to recover the carrying amounts of the assets including the revenue recognized during the nine months period ended 31st December, 2020. Considering the evolving nature of the pandemic, its actual impact in future could be different from that estimated as at the date of approval of these financial results. The Company will continue to closely monitor uncertainties arising of material changes to the future economic conditions.

6 Considering the impact of concessions given in lease rentals and other recoveries during the quarter ended 31st December, 2020, the above results and performance for the quarter is not representative of revenue and performance for the entire year.

7 The Company is predominantly engaged in the business of property and related services, whose results are reviewed regularly by chief operating decision maker for making decisions about resource allocation and performance assessment. As such , there are no separate reporting segments as per Ind-AS 108.

8 The figures for the corresponding previous periods have been restated/regrouped, wherever necessary, to make them comparable with the current periods.
