2.The Company has, on 16th August 2004, signed Definitive Agreements with NatSteel
Limited, Singapore to invest in all of NatSteels steel business for cash. NatSteel
will spin off its entire steel business into a wholly owned subsidiary, NatSteel Asia Pte
Ltd subsequent to which Tata Steel will acquire 100% of equity interest in that company.
The enterprise value of the acquisition is approximately Rs. 1,313 crores subject to
certain adjustments including those of any net debt, minority interest, other liabilities
and for changes in working capital.
3.The Company reinstated its policy of amortisation of employee separation benefits in
the last quarter of 2003-04 in view of the revision of Accounting Standard AS-26 in March
2004 to exclude employee termination benefits from the scope of the standard. Had the
changes been implemented in the first half of 2003-04, the profit before tax for that half
and the second quarter would have been higher by Rs. 49.70 crores and Rs. 0.42 crores
respectively. Corresponding figures for Employee Separation Compensation for the previous
periods under column (2) and (4) of item 8(a) have not been recast.
4.The Company has, on 12th August 2004, issued Bonus Shares in the ratio 1:2. The
Earnings per Share (EPS) for the previous periods under column (2), (4) and (5) have been
recomputed in accordance with the Accounting Standard AS-20.

Furnace at Jamshedpur steel works will be shut down for periods upto 100 days from
December 2004.
