NSE becomes 1st stock exchange to deploy wind

energy
The National Stock Exchange of India Ltd. (NSE) became
the first stock exchange to utilize wind energy for its
captive power usage. Suzlon fulfilled the role of technical
partner by supplying for, and commissioning the
6.25 MW project that would meet 65% of the NSEs
power consumption.
Suzlon receives investment grade rating from CARE

Rating agency CARE upgraded Suzlon to an investment
grade rating of BBB- for its long term loans, fund based
working capital limits and SBLC backing AERH Bonds and
A3, for its non-fund based working capital and proposed
commercial paper. This increased rating is a result of
strategic steps taken towards debt reduction, and
s trengt he ning the ord er bo ok and op erati ng
performance. The rating boosted Suzlon credibility
amongst stakeholders, and facilitated timely and cost
effective finance.
Crossed 2 GW milestone installation in Maharashtra

and Tamil Nadu
Suzlon crossed the 2 GW installation mark in two of its
key states, Tamil Nadu and Maharashtra. Commencing
operations in Maharashtra in 1998, Suzlon currently has
over 1,900 wind turbines installed in the State that power
1.1 million households and offset ~4.43 million tonnes of
carbon emissions annually. Present in Tamil Nadu since
1999, Suzlon presently has over 1,700 wind turbines
installed in the State, which offset 4.47 million tonnes of
carbon emissions while powering 1.12 million homes.
Delivered PLF above industry average

Part of Suzlons 2.1 MW platform of products, the S97
120m hybrid tower wind turbine generator achieved a
35% Plant Load Factor (PLF), over the period of 12
months since its installation in November 2014. This is
higher than the industry average in India which stands at
approximately 25% to 30%. The S97 120m WTG has an
all-steel hybrid tower which combines a lattice base and
a tubular tower. This enables greater stability and hub
height, reduced cost, and higher return on investment
for customers. The S97 120m WTG has also been a game
changer by making viable, through increased height, low
wind sites.

Furthering its international R&D footprint, Suzlon
opened a new blade science centre in Vejle, Denmark.
Focusing on developing aerodynamics, smart control
systems and new structures, the blade centre will be the
epicentre for the development of next generation wind
turbines. It will accelerate Suzlons research into the next
generation of air foils and rotor systems, to continue to
reduce the Levelised Cost of Energy (LCoE), increase the
Plant Load Factor (PLF) and thereby increase Return on
Investment (ROI) for customers.
Commissioned prototype of S111 120m hybrid in

Gujarat, India
Suzlon successfully completed the erection and
commissioning of the prototype of its latest 2.1 MW
platform product the S111 120m hybrid tower WTG.
Installed at Naliya, Gujarat, India, in March 2016, the S111
has 30% more swept, thereby increasing efficiency,
reducing Levelized Cost of Energy (LCoE) and enabling
energy security, affordability and reliability. This offers
higher return on investment to customers, and also
makes low wind sites viable.

sales volume of 1,131 MW achieved during the year
signifies a Y-o-Y growth of 149%. Order intake for the
year stood at 1,251 MW, which is 3 times higher than that
of the previous year. Suzlon continues to focus on
execution and is confident of maintaining the growth
momentum, outpacing the expected industry growth
rate of 30% in FY16-17.

During the year under review and up to the date of this Report, certain material changes took place, the details of which together
with their rationale are as under:
SUZLON ENERGY LIMITED, ANNUAL REPORT 2015-16
21
a)
Acquisition of 25% stake in Suzlon Structures Limited (SSL) from Kalthia Group pursuant to which SSL became a
wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.
b)
Transfer of entire equity shareholding in Suzlon Gujarat Wind Park Limited (SGWPL), a wholly owned subsidiary of
the Company, to Suzlon Power Infrastructure Limited (SPIL), another wholly owned subsidiary of the Company Pursuant to this transfer, SGWPL has become a wholly owned subsidiary of SPIL, and continues to be a step down wholly
owned subsidiary of the Company.
Balance of Parts (BOP) business of the Group is being carried on by and between SGWPL and SPIL. With a view to create an
independent vertical within the Group to handle the value chain of BOP / Balance of Systems (BOS) for wind / solar
sectors, which in turn would help the Group in coping with the possible changes in the infrastructure industry, SPIL, in
addition to its current activities, will also act as a holding company for BOP / BOS business and will hold SGWPL and certain
other companies, in future, which may be required to be set up as joint ventures with the third parties for the purpose of
building up resources around land, for consents / approvals, for power evacuation facilities, to cater effectively to the
business opportunities and competitive business scenario.
c)
Transfer of entire 98% equity shareholding in Suzlon Global Services Limited (SGSL) to Suzlon Structures Limited
(SSL), another wholly owned subsidiary of the Company - Pursuant to this transfer, SGSL has become a wholly owned
subsidiary of SSL, and continues to be a step down wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.
The operation, maintenance and services (OMS) business was separated from the Company to achieve a strategic and
operational focus on the business and development of a qualitative enterprise and a sector leader for OMS operations.
The said business has gathered required critical mass and has good and sustainable operating margins, since separation
from the Company. Thus with a view to rationalise the OMS business to optimise future fund raising or capital raising
activities, this transfer has been effected.
d)
Venturing into Solar business - During the year under review, the Company decided to embark further into the
renewable energy sector by venturing into solar space. The Company has won bids for 515 MW solar power projects across
four states namely Telangana, Maharashtra, Rajasthan and Jharkhand, out of which power purchase agreements for
340 MW have been signed. Post March 31, 2016, the Company signed a Share Subscription and Shareholders Agreement
with CLP Windfarms (India) Private Limited (CLP) and SE Solar Limited, a subsidiary of the Company for setting up 100 MW
solar power project in the State of Telangana and eventually sale of SE Solar Limited to CLP.
e)
Amalgamation / Merger / Demerger

Post March 31, 2016, the Board of Directors of the Company has approved, subject to approval of jurisdictional High Court,
Composite Scheme of merger and demerger for:

wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company, into the Company; and
demerger of the tubular tower manufacturing division of Suzlon Structures Limited (SSL), the wholly owned
subsidiary of the Company, into the Company.
Such consolidation of the above referred manufacturing companies will result in achieving business and administrative

In respect of observation pertaining to requisite number of Independent Directors as required under the Listing
Regulations:
As on March 31, 2106, the Board of Directors of the Company consists of eleven Directors. Of the said eleven
Directors, three Directors are Promoter-Directors, of which only one is an Executive Director and rest two are Nonexecutive Directors. As regard the balance, eight directors are non-promoter / non-executive and unrelated
directors with three being the nominee directors of various lenders in terms of the CDR arrangements and five are
Independent Directors, i.e. more than 2/3rd are non-promoter / non-executive and unrelated directors, and more
of the nature of independent directors only.
In terms of Regulation 17(1)(b) of the Listing Regulations, at least half of the Companys Board shall consist of
Independent Directors, which the Company was complying with till September 30, 2014. However, due to change in
the definition of independent director by excluding the nominee director outside the purview of the definition
of the independent director, with effect from October 1, 2014, the composition of the Board of the Company
required change in terms of the then revised Clause 49 of the Listing Agreement as well as the Listing Regulations.
The Nominee Directors fulfil all other criteria of independence as specified in the Listing Regulations and they are
more of the nature of independent directors only. Accordingly, in spirit the Company does comply with the
requirements of the Board composition, with more than 2/3rd directors, being non-promoter / non-executive and
unrelated directors. Irrespective of the above, the Company has been making its best endeavour to find
appropriate persons as independent directors on its Board.
Irrespective of above, post March 31, 2016 and as on date of this Report, Mrs. Vijaya Sampath (DIN: 00641110) has
been appointed as an Independent Director on the Board of the Company for a term of five years with effect from

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION
AND ANALYSIS
Global Renewable Energy Market and Outlook
CY 2015 year will be earmarked as an achievement for renewables - excluding large hydro projects - with global investments in
renewable energy reaching upto $329 Billion. Strikingly, the combined capacity addition in Wind and Solar together reached to 121 GW
which made up about 50% of the net capacity added in all generation technologies (fossil fuel, nuclear and renewable) globally. Asia
Pacific witnessed an investment of $179 Billion (up 11% on 2014), 54% of global renewable investments, higher than Americas and EMEA
regions both put together.
Adding further strength to growing base of renewables, world leaders at COP21 has first time attested an unprecedented agreement
among 195 nations to act for zero net emissions in the second half of the century. India has also made voluntary commitment at the
United Nations Framework Convention for Climate Change to reduce its carbon emissions intensity by 33-35 percent by 2030 in
comparison with the 2005 levels. It envisaged to achieve about 40 percent cumulative electric power installed capacity from non-fossil
fuel based energy resources by 2030 with the help of transfer of technology and low cost international finance including from Green
Climate Fund (GCF). India also committed to create an additional carbon sink of 2.5 to 3 billion tonnes of CO2 equivalent through
additional forest and tree cover by 2030.
In Renewables, Wind and Solar continue to dominate a leading share. Wind power had another record breaking year when it crossed 50
GW mark for the first time in a single year in 2014. It reached another milestone in 2015 as annual installations topped 64 GW, a 22%
increase. By the end of last year, there were about 433 GW of wind power plants spinning around the globe, a cumulative 17% increase;
and wind power supplied more new power generation than any other technology in 2015, according to the IEA. For solar, of the
renewables total 134 GW excluding large hydro were commissioned, solar photovoltaics accounted for 57GW, record figures and sharply
up from their 2014 additions of 45GW, a 27% increase.
As per Bloomberg Energy outlook 2015-2040, renewables will grow in market share and are to constitute 62% of the 380 GW of capacity
addition worldwide by 2030, of which Solar is expected to double its capacity additions. The following forecast is a testimony of strong
Wind and Solar future- in the years to come- for the organizations which are geared up for the opportunity.

India Renewables Market
With India having a huge potential of 889 GW of renewable resource, Government of India has further increased focus in Wind and Solar
sector through its proactive policy and programs. Government has already charted a strong programme to do a fivefold ramp up in
renewable energy of 175 GW by 2022. It includes ramping up the Solar to 100 GW, wind to 60 GW, and biomass/small hydropower to 15
GW. To accelerate the achievement of goal, it has again doubled the clean environment cess to INR 400 per tonne. The Renewable
Purchase Obligation for solar power is planned to be increased from the current 3% to 8% by 2022. Furthermore, a new Renewable
Generation Obligation has been proposed which requires fossil fuel plants to produce 10% of their capacity through renewable sources.
Regulators are also empowered to enforce the compliance and limit cross-subsidy surcharge to 15% of relevant tariff. The government
recently announced the Draft Renewable Energy Act which will give boost to the RE industry post legislation. This Act shall in particular
contribute to ensuring fulfillment of national and international objectives on increasing the proportion of energy produced through the
use of renewable energy sources.

Suzlon Group Outlook

Suzlon Group successfully did a turnaround in FY 2016 across all key parameters. On one hand, the Commissioning in India stood at 900
MW, a growth of 104% in a single year compared to 442 MW of 2015, and on other hand, the market share increased from 19% to 26%.
Further, on financial stability which had been a concern area - company not only reported positive EBIT of Rs 565 Crore (FY 2016), but also
reduced its net debt by ~40% from Rs 17,057 Crore (FY 2015) to Rs 10,290 Crore (FY 2016).
Apart from strengthening its operations in Wind business, the Group made its maiden foray in Solar business and plans to leverage its 20
years of End-to-End renewable management experience. This also aligns with our long term vision to provide further stability to grid
with eventual direction towards Wind-Solar-Battery hybrid combination. During first year of Suzlons foray into Solar, the Group did an
order intake of healthy 210 MW approximating to ~Rs 1,550 Crore business along with Wind Hybrid MoU with state governments.
Product and Technology
In CY 2015, Suzlon Group achieved a significant milestone in technology wherein its product S97- DFIG 2.1MW, mounted on worlds
tallest All-Steel Hybrid Tower Wind Turbine with a hub-height of 120m, achieved 35% PLF in its first year. The innovative design combines
both lattice and tubular structures, designed indigenously to harness the enhanced availability of wind resources at higher altitudes
making low wind sites viable. It increases energy output by ~ 12% to 15 % over other turbines of same capacity at 90m height.
During the year, Suzlon successfully completed the type testing and certification of S111 turbine. The S111 delivered approximately
102% of its design power curve, translating to higher than projected power generation, and improved returns for customer.
In order to unlock Wind market at low wind speed, the Group further strengthened its Technology positioning by opening a specialized
Blade science centre in Denmark, which will focus on developing best blades and control systems in the industry and integrating our
aerodynamic, load and new structures research across country. This will further accelerate our innovation efforts as we develop our next
generation of turbines.
Key Initiatives
Our focus for FY17 remains to consolidate our position in India and explore entering select international markets. The key priority for
FY17 remains as follows:
1.
Regain market leadership position in India
2.
Improve contribution margin by optimizing COGS via maximizing energy yield, and innovative technological/projects
improvements
3.
Focus on core and select international markets
4.
Enhance customer satisfaction through machine availability and better OMS offerings through value added services
5.
Foray into Solar and develop Wind-Solar Hybrid Business Model
6.
Continue to monitor and optimize the fixed costs
7.
Continue to monitor Net Working Capital
With these key focus areas in mind, we believe that we are poised to accelerate in the growth trajectory and unlock various markets to
serve our stakeholders in renewables business.
Business risks and mitigation
Suzlon Group has an active risk management and mitigation strategy, taking a fairly wholesome view of the internal and external
environment to proactively address challenges, to the extent possible. Key elements of the program are summarized below:
Operational risks
Technology: Leveraging technology to render turbines saleable and viable at low-wind sites has been a point of continuous exploration
and improvement, to expand market reach and share.
Last year, the 120m Hub-Height prototype for S97 turbine has been immensely successful. In the FY 2015-16, the mass production of the
120m Hybrid Tower was stabilized, overcoming several challenges in the cycle time for installation. By employing innovative processes
and by imparting structured technical training, the installation time for the 120m Hybrid Tower was optimized to commercially viable
levels. Following the technological success of the 120m Hub-Height in the S97 turbine, the hybrid tower has been adopted for the new
generation S111 turbine.
In the FY 2014-15, the S111 turbine was put into initial series and various mandatory certifications for market acceptance were
progressed. The S111 turbine is now a certified turbine and has gained substantial market acceptance in FY 2015-16; paving the way for
increased projections for sale in the next FY.
Critical components like gearbox and converters, for the S111 turbines, have been developed within a record time by employing the
lessons learnt and technical experience.
Supply chain risk: Critical components like Gearbox, Bearings, Converter and Blades have a long ramp-up duration which would inhibit
agility. The Group has worked to create alternative sources through expansion of the vendor base, localisation and standardisation of
certain components to keep the costs of procurement under check.
Project execution risk: The Group is exposed to various risks associated to the project life cycle, which includes extreme climatic and
environmental conditions causing delay in execution, availability of grid, availability of suitable land resources and timely execution of
project activities by subcontractors etc. The Group continuously monitors the progress of each project vis--vis its target timeline and
take necessary course correction to ensure timely completion of the project.
References: Excluding Senvion
51
Solar Business risk: During the year, the Group has won certain solar bids in few states in India. There are certain key risks associated
with these bids viz timely availability of land and other engineering resources, extreme weather events, grid connection, security issues,
timely financial closure and timely project execution etc. The adverse impact of these risks might impact financial viability of the solar
projects. However, the Group is confident to manage these risks by leveraging its 20 years of End-to-End renewable management
experience and by being proactive in the project execution approach.
Financial risks
Foreign exchange risk: A significant part of the Suzlon Groups revenue, costs, assets and liabilities are denominated in foreign
currencies. Un-hedged trade and financial exposure thus creates potential to adversely impact our projected cash flows and overall
profitability. Risks are identified at the contractual juncture and are planned to be hedged progressively at various stages of project life
cycle, depending upon the nature of the transactions and in accordance with the hedging policy and strategy of the company. During the
year, risk management practices continued to focus on minimizing the economic impact on companys profitability arising from
fluctuations in exchange rates.
Interest rate risk: Post formalisation of Corporate Debt Restructuring proposal, risks associated with interest rate fluctuation has been
substantially mitigated with fixing the interest rate regime on the term debts for a longer period. Foreign Currency loans with floating
rate are being constantly monitored and the management is considering to de-risk the effects of the LIBOR increase by converting into
fixed rate loan. Refinancing of high cost bearing liabilities into low cost is also being negotiated from lenders for interest cost reduction.
Credit risk: The Group also consistently monitors the financial health of its Customers and sales proceeds are being realized as per the
milestone payment terms agreed to minimize the loss due to defaults or insolvency of the customer. Progressive liquidity management is
being followed to de-risk the company from any non-fulfillment of its liabilities to various creditors, statutory obligations, or any
stakeholders.
Commodity price risk: The Group has a robust framework and governance mechanism in place to ensure that the organisation is
adequately protected from the market volatility in terms of price and availability. A robust planning and strategy ensures the Groups
interests are protected despite volatility in commodity prices. Backward integration strategy, rate negotiation with vendors, alternative
sourcing, indigenisation of critical components, and value-engineering driven initiatives also help the Group to mitigate this risk to a
greater extent.
Internal control systems and their adequacy
Our internal management audit team periodically undertakes independent reviews of risks, controls, operations and procedures,
identifying control and process gaps and recommending business solutions for risk mitigation. The Company runs in-house risk and
misconduct management unit which supports management to assess, evaluate, strengthen and institutionalise value system from the
standpoint of ethical business practices. With regular reporting mechanism, a stage gate system has been established. Complaints
received under whistle-blower policy are evaluated on a regular basis.
The Audit Committee of the Board periodically reviews the companys management audit reports, audit plans and recommendations of
the auditors and managements responses to those recommendations. The Audit Committee met four times during the year.
Corporate Social Responsibility
Suzlon has always championed the cause of environment protection even in the business choices that it has made. Corporate Social
Responsibility (CSR) is an extension of this stewardship. Suzlons CSR approach is to promote sustainability within the organization and
in the neighbourhoods where its business areas are. Suzlon Foundation, a non-profit company established in 2007, nurtures this
stewardship by implementing CSR programs for the entire Suzlon Group.
Engage and transform: Suzlon trusts that to foster corporate citizenship, engaging employees and cultivating responsible practices is
very important. Suzlon Foundation also gives an opportunity to the employees to volunteer, participate, and donate for such activities.
Initiatives such as celebrating birthdays with the inmates of institutions such as mentally challenged homes, old-age homes, blind
people, etc. gives them tremendous inner satisfaction. Foundation engages with senior management to incorporate sustainability
perspective at policy level too.
Empower and respond: Mapping our own business footprint is the beginning of our CSR programs. Projects are designed to offset the
impacts and respond to the local needs which are assessed through consultations with the stakeholders including the communities.
Suzlon has taken a step forward in taking the concept of sustainability to village development committees which are the vehicles
through which CSR programs are implemented and monitored in the villages. It is our dream that these Village Development
Committees (VDCs) would be empowered to such an extent that eventually they will be able to collect resources, financial and otherwise,
to fulfil their needs.
Sustain and pro-act: Sustainability is to transform the VDCs to take over the development projects that we have started in the villages.
The VDCs are groomed to take steps towards achieving sustainability. Proactively choosing organic farming may be a small change in
response to climate change, but is a huge step for a small farmer. It is an ultimate step towards sustainability of our planet.
Suzlon CSR Mission:
Corporate Social Responsibility at Suzlon means living corporate values, with the goal of:
Having minimal impact on the natural environment

Enabling local communities to develop their potential
Empowering employees to be responsible civil society members
Committing ourselves to ethical business practices that are fair to all the stakeholders
So that we can collectively contribute towards creating a better world for all

STANDALONE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Independent Auditor's Report
To the Members of Suzlon Energy Limited
Report on the Financial Statements
1.
We have audited the accompanying standalone financial statements of Suzlon Energy Limited (the Company), which comprise
the Balance Sheet as at March 31, 2016, the Statement of Profit and Loss and Cash Flow Statement for the year then ended, and a
summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information, in which are incorporated the returns for the year
ended on that date audited by the branch auditors of the Companys branches at Netherlands and Germany.
Managements Responsibility for the Financial Statements

2.
The Companys Board of Directors is responsible for the matters stated in Section 134(5) of the Companies Act, 2013 (the Act)
with respect to the preparation of these standalone financial statements that give a true and fair view of the financial position,
financial performance and cash flows of the Company in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in India,
including the Accounting Standards specified under section 133 of the Act, read with Rule 7 of the Companies (Accounts) Rules,
2014. This responsibility includes maintenance of adequate accounting records in accordance with the provisions of the Act for
safeguarding of the assets of the Company and for preventing and detecting frauds and other irregularities; selection and
application of appropriate accounting policies; making judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and the
design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial control that were operating effectively for ensuring the
accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, relevant to the preparation and presentation of the financial statements
that give a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these standalone financial statements based on our audit. We have taken into

Standards on Auditing issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India, as specified under Section 143(10) of the Act.
Those Standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.
4.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.
The procedures selected depend on the auditors judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the
financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal financial
control relevant to the Companys preparation of the financial statements that give a true and fair view in order to design audit
procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting
policies used and the reasonableness of the accounting estimates made by the Companys Directors, as well as evaluating the
overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and
appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the standalone financial statements.
Opinion
5.
In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, the standalone financial
statements give the information required by the Act in the manner so required and give a true and fair view in conformity with the
accounting principles generally accepted in India, of the state of affairs of the Company as at March 31, 2016, its profit and its cash
flows for the year ended on that date.

Annexure 2 Annexure referred to in paragraph 8(h) of our report of even date under the heading Report on Other Legal and
Regulatory Requirements
Report on the Internal Financial Controls under Clause (i) of Sub-section 3 of Section 143 of the Companies Act, 2013 (the Act)
1.
We have audited the internal financial controls over financial reporting of Suzlon Energy Limited (the Company) as of March 31,
2016 in conjunction with our audit of the standalone financial statements of the Company for the year ended on that date.
Managements Responsibility for Internal Financial Controls

2.
The Companys Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining internal financial controls based on the internal
control over financial reporting criteria established by the Company considering the essential components of internal control
stated in the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting issued by the Institute of Chartered
Accountants of India. These responsibilities include the design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial
controls that were operating effectively for ensuring the orderly and efficient conduct of its business, including adherence to the
Companys policies, the safeguarding of its assets, the prevention and detection of frauds and errors, the accuracy and
completeness of the accounting records, and the timely preparation of reliable financial information, as required under the
3.
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's internal financial controls over financial reporting based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting (the
Guidance Note) and the Standards on Auditing as specified under section 143(10) of the Companies Act, 2013, to the extent
applicable to an audit of internal financial controls, both applicable to an audit of internal financial controls and, both issued by the
Institute of Chartered Accountants of India. Those Standards and the Guidance Note require that we comply with ethical
requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether adequate internal financial controls
over financial reporting was established and maintained and if such controls operated effectively in all material respects.
4.
Our audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the adequacy of the internal financial controls system
over financial reporting and their operating effectiveness. Our audit of internal financial controls over financial reporting
included obtaining an understanding of internal financial controls over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material
weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk.
The procedures selected depend on the auditors judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of
the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error.
5.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the
internal financial controls system over financial reporting.
Meaning of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting

6.
A company's internal financial control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding
the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal financial control over financial reporting includes those policies
and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the
transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as
necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that
receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorisations of management and directors
of the Company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorised acquisition, use,
or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Inherent Limitations of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting

7.
Because of the inherent limitations of internal financial controls over financial reporting, including the possibility of collusion or
improper management override of controls, material misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. Also,
projections of any evaluation of the internal financial controls over financial reporting to future periods are subject to the risk that
the internal financial control over financial reporting may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the
degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Opinion
8.
In our opinion, the Company has, in all material respects, an adequate internal financial controls system over financial reporting
and such internal financial controls over financial reporting were operating effectively as at March 31, 2016, based on the internal
control over financial reporting criteria established by the Company considering the essential components of internal control
stated in the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting issued by the Institute of Chartered
Accountants of India.

Notes to financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2016
All amounts in Rupees Crore, unless otherwise stated
1.
Corporate information
Suzlon Energy Limited (SEL or the Company) having CIN: L40100GJ1995PLC025447 is a public company domiciled in India. Its
shares are listed on two stock exchanges in India. The Company is primarily engaged in the business of manufacturing of wind turbine
generators (WTGs) and related components of various capacities.
2.
Basis of preparation
The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in
India (Indian GAAP). The Company has prepared these financial statements to comply in all material respects with the accounting
standards notified under section 133 of the Companies Act 2013 read together with paragraph 7 of the Companies (Accounts)
Rules 2014. The financial statements have been prepared on an accrual basis and under the historical cost convention, except in
case of assets for which provision for impairment is made and derivative instruments which have been measured at fair value.
The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of financial statements are consistent with those of previous year, except for
the change in accounting policy explained below.
3.

Change in accounting policy
Component accounting
The Company has adopted component accounting as required under Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013, from April 01,
2015. Due to application of Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013, the Company has changed the manner of depreciation for its
fixed asset. Until previous year, the Company was not identifying components of fixed asset separately for depreciation purposes;
rather, a single useful life / depreciation rate was used to depreciate each item of fixed asset. However, now it identifies and
determines cost of each component / part of the asset separately, if the component / part has a cost which is significant to the
total cost of the asset having useful life that is materially different from that of the remaining asset. These components are
depreciated over their useful lives; the remaining asset is depreciated over the life of the principal asset. The Company has also
changed its policy on recognition of cost of major inspection / overhaul. Earlier Company used to charge such cost directly to
statement of profit and loss. On application of component accounting, the major inspection / overhaul is identified as a separate
component of the asset at the time of purchase of new asset and subsequently. The cost of such major inspection / overhaul is
depreciated separately over the period till next major inspection / overhaul. Upon next major inspection / overhaul, the costs of
new major inspection / overhaul are added to the asset's cost and any amount remaining from the previous inspection / overhaul
is derecognised.
The above change in accounting policy does not have any material impact on depreciation, repair and maintenance expense,
profit for the current year as well as the valuation of fixed assets as at March 31, 2016.
a.
Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Indian GAAP requires the management to make judgements,
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent liabilities, at the end of the reporting period. Although, these estimates are based upon managements best
knowledge of current events and actions, uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in the
outcomes requiring a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities in future periods.
b.
Tangible fixed assets

Fixed assets are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. The cost
comprises purchase price, borrowing costs if capitalization criteria are met and directly attributable cost of bringing the
asset to its working condition for the intended use. Any trade discounts and rebates are deducted in arriving at the
purchase price. The manufacturing costs of internally generated assets comprise direct costs and attributable overheads.
Capital work-in-progress comprises of cost of fixed assets that are not yet ready for their intended use as at the balance
sheet date. Assets held for disposal are stated at the lower of net book value and the estimated net realisable value.
Gains or losses arising from de-recognition of fixed assets are measured as the difference between the net disposal
proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and are recognised in the statement of profit and loss when the asset is
derecognised.
The Company identifies and determines the cost of each component / part of the asset separately, if the component / part
has a cost which is significant to the total cost of the asset and has useful life that is materially different from that of the
remaining asset.
Fixed assets held for sale is valued at lower of their carrying amount and net realizable value. Any write-down is recognised
in the statement of profit and loss.
83
c.
Depreciation on tangible fixed assets

Depreciation on tangible fixed assets is calculated on the written down value method (WDV) based on the useful lives
and residual values estimated by the management in accordance with Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013. The
identified components are depreciated separately over their useful lives; the remaining components are depreciated over
the life of the principal asset.
The Company has used the following useful lives to provide depreciation on its tangible fixed assets:
Type of asset
Useful lives (years)
Office buildings
Electrifications
Factory buildings
Moulds
Plant and machinery
Wind research and measuring equipment
58

Leasehold land is amortised on a straight line basis over the period of lease.
d.
Intangible assets
Intangible assets acquired separately are measured on initial recognition at cost. Following initial recognition, intangible
assets are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. Internally generated
intangible assets, excluding capitalised development costs, are not capitalised and expenditure is reflected in the
statement of profit and loss in the year in which the expenditure is incurred. Intangible assets are amortised on a straight
line basis over the estimated useful economic life.
The amortisation period and the amortisation method are reviewed at least at each financial year end. If the expected
useful life of the asset is significantly different from previous estimates, the amortisation period is changed accordingly. If
there has been a significant change in the expected pattern of economic benefits from the asset, the amortisation method
is changed to reflect the changed pattern. Such changes are accounted for in accordance with AS 5 Net Profit or Loss for
the Period, Prior Period Items and Changes in Accounting Policies.
Gains or losses arising from de-recognition of an intangible asset are measured as the difference between the net disposal
proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and are recognised in the statement of profit and loss when the asset is
derecognised.
Research and development costs
Research costs are expensed as incurred. Development expenditure incurred on an individual project is recognised as an
intangible asset when the Company can demonstrate all the following:
i.
The technical feasibility of completing the intangible asset so that it will be available for use or sale
ii.
Its intention to complete the asset
iii.
Its ability to use or sell the asset
iv.
How the asset will generate future economic benefits
v.
The availability of adequate resources to complete the development and to use or sell the asset
vi.
The ability to measure reliably the expenditure attributable to the intangible asset during development.
Following the initial recognition of the development expenditure as an asset, the cost model is applied requiring the asset
to be carried at cost less any accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses. Amortisation of the asset
begins when development is complete and the asset is available for use. It is amortised on a straight line basis over the
period of expected future benefit from the related project, i.e., the estimated useful life. Amortisation is recognised in the
statement of profit and loss. During the period of development, the asset is tested for impairment annually.
A summary of amortisation policies applied to the Companys intangible assets is as below:
Type of asset
Design and drawings
SAP and other software

Straight line basis over a period of five years
Straight line basis over a period of five years
e.
Leases
i.
Where the Company is a lessee

Leases where the lessor effectively retains substantially all the risks and benefits of ownership of the leased item are
classified as operating leases. Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense in the statement of profit
and loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Initial direct costs such as legal costs, brokerage costs, etc. are
recognised immediately in the statement of profit and loss.
ii.
Where the Company is a lessor

Leases in which the Company does not transfer substantially all the risks and benefits of ownership of the asset are
classified as operating leases. Assets subject to operating leases are included in fixed assets.
Lease income on an operating lease is recognised in the statement of profit and loss on a straight-line basis over
the lease term. Costs, including depreciation, are recognised as an expense in the statement of profit and loss.
f.
Borrowing costs
Borrowing cost primarily includes interest and amortisation of ancillary costs incurred in connection with the arrangement
of borrowings.
Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of an asset that necessarily takes a
substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use or sale are capitalised as part of the cost of the respective asset.
All other borrowing costs are expensed in the period they occur.
g.
Impairment of tangible and intangible assets

The Company assesses at each reporting date whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. If any indication
exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the Company estimates the assets recoverable amount. An
assets recoverable amount is the higher of an assets or cash-generating units (CGU) net selling price and its value in use. The
recoverable amount is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely
independent of those from other assets or groups of assets. Where the carrying amount of an asset or CGU exceeds its
recoverable amount, the asset is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount. Impairment losses are
recognised in the statement of profit and loss. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their
present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks
specific to the asset. In determining net selling price, recent market transactions are taken into account, if available. If no such
transactions can be identified, an appropriate valuation model is used.
After impairment, depreciation is provided on the revised carrying amount of the asset over its remaining useful life.
The impairment loss recognised in prior accounting periods is reversed if there has been a change in estimates of
recoverable amount. The carrying value after reversal is not increased beyond the carrying value that would have
prevailed by charging usual depreciation if there was no impairment.
h.
Government grants and subsidies

Grants and subsidies from the government are recognised when there is reasonable assurance that (i) the Company will
comply with the conditions attached to them, and (ii) the grant / subsidy will be received.
When the grant or subsidy relates to revenue, it is recognised as income on a systematic basis in the statement of profit
and loss over the periods necessary to match them with the related costs, which they are intended to compensate. Where
the grant relates to an asset, it is recognised as deferred income and released to income in equal amounts over the
expected useful life of the related asset.
i.
Investments
Investments which are readily realisable and intended to be held for not more than one year from the date on which such
investments are made, are classified as current investments. All other investments are classified as long-term investments.
On initial recognition, all investments are measured at cost. The cost comprises purchase price and directly attributable
acquisition charges such as brokerage, fees and duties. If an investment is acquired, or partly acquired, by the issue of
shares or other securities, the acquisition cost is the fair value of the securities issued.
Current investments are carried in the financial statements at lower of cost and fair value determined on an individual
investment basis. Long-term investments are carried at cost. However, provision for diminution in value is made to
recognise a decline other than temporary in the value of the investments.
On disposal of an investment, the difference between its carrying amount and net disposal proceeds is charged or
credited to the statement of profit and loss.
j.
Inventories
Inventories of raw materials including stores and spares and consumables, packing materials, semi-finished goods,
components, work-in-progress, project work-in-progress and finished goods are valued at the lower of cost and
estimated net realisable value. Cost is determined on weighted average basis.
85
The cost of work-in-progress, project work-in-progress, semi-finished goods and finished goods includes the cost of
material, labour and a proportion of manufacturing overheads.
Stock of land and land lease rights is valued at lower of cost and estimated net realisable value. Cost is determined on
weighted average basis. Net realisable value is determined by management using technical estimates.
k.
Revenue recognition
Revenue comprises sale of WTGs and wind power systems; service income; interest; dividend. Revenue is recognised to the
extent it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Company and that the revenue can be reliably measured. The
Company collects sales taxes, service tax, value added taxes (VAT) as applicable on behalf of the government and therefore,
these are not economic benefits flowing to the Company. Hence, they are excluded from revenue.
Sales
Revenue from sale of goods is recognised in the statement of profit and loss when the significant risks and rewards in
respect of ownership of goods has been transferred to the buyer as per the terms of the respective sales order, and the
income can be measured reliably and is expected to be received.
Fixed price contracts to deliver wind power systems (turnkey and projects involving installation and / or commissioning
apart from supply) are recognised in revenue based on the stage of completion of the individual contract using the
percentage completion method, provided the order outcome as well as expected total costs can be reliably estimated.
Where the profit from a contract cannot be estimated reliably, revenue is only recognised equalling the expenses incurred
to the extent that it is probable that the expenses will be recovered.
Due from customers, if any, are measured at the selling price of the work performed based on the stage of completion less
interim billing and expected losses. The stage of completion is measured by the proportion that the contract expenses
incurred to date bear to the estimated total contract expenses. The value of self-constructed components is recognised in
'Contracts in progress' upon dispatch of the complete set of components which are specifically identified for a customer
and are within the scope of supply, as per the terms of the respective sale order for the wind power systems. Where it is
probable that total contract expenses will exceed total revenues from a contract, the expected loss is recognised
immediately as an expense in the statement of profit and loss.
Where the selling price of a contract cannot be estimated reliably, the selling price is measured only on the expenses
incurred to the extent that it is probable that these expenses will be recovered. Prepayments from customers are
recognised as liabilities. A contract in progress for which the selling price of the work performed exceeds interim billings
and expected losses is recognised as an asset. Contracts in progress for which interim billings and expected losses exceed
the selling price are recognised as a liability. Expenses relating to sales work and the winning of contracts are recognised in
the statement of profit and loss as incurred.
Operation and maintenance income
Revenues from operation and maintenance contracts are recognised pro-rata over the period of the contract as and when
services are rendered.
Project execution income
Revenue from services relating to project execution is recognised on completion of respective service, as per terms of
respective sales order.
Land revenue
Revenue from land lease activity is recognised upon the transfer of leasehold rights to the customers. Revenue from sale of
land / right to sale land is recognised when significant risks and rewards in respect of title of land are transferred to the
customers as per the terms of the respective sales order. Revenue from land development is recognised upon rendering of
the service as per the terms of the respective sales order.
Interest income
Interest income is recognised on a time proportion basis taking into account the amount outstanding and the rate
applicable. In case of interest charged to customers, interest is accounted for on availability of documentary evidence that
the customer has accepted the liability.
Dividend income
Dividend income from investments is recognised when the right to receive payment is established.
l.
Foreign currency transactions

i.
Initial recognition
Foreign currency transactions are recorded in the reporting currency, by applying to the foreign currency amount
the exchange rate between the reporting currency and the foreign currency at the date of the transaction.
86
ii.
Conversion
Foreign currency monetary items are retranslated using the exchange rate prevailing at the reporting date. Nonmonetary items, which are measured in terms of historical cost denominated in a foreign currency, are reported
using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction. Non-monetary items, which are measured at fair value or
other similar valuation denominated in a foreign currency, are translated using the exchange rate at the date when
such value was determined.
Foreign currency transactions entered into by branches, which are integral foreign operations are accounted in the
same manner as foreign currency transactions described above. Branch monetary assets and liabilities are restated
at the year-end rates.
iii.
Exchange differences
The Company accounts for exchange differences arising on translation / settlement of foreign currency monetary
items as below:
iv.
1.
Exchange differences arising on other long-term foreign currency monetary items are accumulated in the
Foreign Currency Monetary Item Translation Difference Account and amortised over the remaining life of
the concerned monetary item. It is presented as a part of Reserves and surplus.
2.
All other exchange differences are recognised as income or as expense in the period in which they arise.
Forward exchange contracts entered into to hedge foreign currency risk of an existing asset / liability
The premium or discount arising at the inception of forward exchange contract is amortised and recognised as an
expense / income over the life of the contract. Exchange differences on such contracts are recognised in the
statement of profit and loss in the period in which the exchange rates change. Any profit or loss arising on
cancellation or renewal of such forward exchange contract is also recognised as income or as expense for the
period.
m.
Derivatives
As per the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI) announcement, derivative contracts, other than those
covered under AS-11, are marked to market on a portfolio basis and the net loss after considering the offsetting effect on
the underlying hedge items is charged to the statement of profit and loss. Net gains on marked to market basis are not
recognised.
n.
Retirement and other employee benefits

Defined contributions to provident fund and employee state insurance are charged to the statement of profit and loss of
the year, when an employee renders the related service. There are no other obligations other than the contribution
payable to the respective statutory authorities.
Defined contributions to superannuation fund are charged to the statement of profit and loss on accrual basis.
Retirement benefits in the form of gratuity are defined benefit obligations and are provided for on the basis of an actuarial
valuation, using projected unit credit method as at each balance sheet date.
Short-term compensated absences are provided based on estimates. Long term compensated absences and other longterm employee benefits are provided for on the basis of an actuarial valuation, using projected unit credit method, as at
each balance sheet date. The entire leave is presented as a current liability in the balance sheet, since it does not have an
unconditional right to defer its settlement for 12 months after the reporting date.
Actuarial gains / losses are taken to the statement of profit and loss and are not deferred.
o.
Taxes on income
Tax expense comprises current and deferred tax. Current income-tax is measured at the amount expected to be paid to the
tax authorities in accordance with the Income-tax Act, 1961 enacted in India and tax laws prevailing in the respective tax
jurisdictions where the Company operates. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are
enacted or substantively enacted, at the reporting date. Current income tax relating to items recognised directly in equity
is recognised in equity and not in the statement of profit and loss.
Deferred income taxes reflect the impact of timing differences between taxable income and accounting income
originating during the current year and reversal of timing differences for the earlier years. Deferred tax is measured using
the tax rates and the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date. Deferred income tax relating to items
recognised directly in equity is recognised in equity and not in the statement of profit and loss.
Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable timing differences. Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible
timing differences only to the extent that there is reasonable certainty that sufficient future taxable income will be
available against which such deferred tax assets can be realised. In situations where the Company has unabsorbed
depreciation or carry forward tax losses, all deferred tax assets are recognised only if there is virtual certainty supported by
convincing evidence that they can be realised against future taxable profits.
87
In the situations where the Company is entitled to a tax holiday under the Income-tax Act, 1961 enacted in India or tax laws
prevailing in the respective tax jurisdictions where it operates, no deferred tax (asset or liability) is recognised in respect of
timing differences which reverse during the tax holiday period, to the extent the Companys gross total income is subject
to the deduction during the tax holiday period. Deferred tax in respect of timing differences which reverse after the tax
holiday period is recognised in the year in which the timing differences originate. However, the Company restricts
recognition of deferred tax assets to the extent that it has become reasonably certain or virtually certain, as the case may
be, that sufficient future taxable income will be available against which such deferred tax assets can be realised. For
recognition of deferred taxes, the timing differences which originate first are considered to reverse first.
At each reporting date, the Company re-assesses unrecognised deferred tax assets. It recognises unrecognised deferred
tax asset to the extent that it has become reasonably certain or virtually certain, as the case may be, that sufficient future
taxable income will be available against which such deferred tax assets can be realised.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date. The Company writes-down the carrying
amount of deferred tax asset to the extent that it is no longer reasonably certain or virtually certain, as the case may be,
that sufficient future taxable income will be available against which deferred tax asset can be realised. Any such writedown is reversed to the extent that it becomes reasonably certain or virtually certain, as the case may be, that sufficient
future taxable income will be available.
Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset, if a legally enforceable right exists to set-off current tax assets
against current tax liabilities and the deferred tax assets and deferred taxes relate to the same taxable entity and the same
taxation authority.
Minimum alternate tax (MAT) paid in a year is charged to the statement of profit and loss as current tax. The Company
recognises MAT credit available as an asset only to the extent that there is convincing evidence that the Company will pay
normal income tax during the specified period, i.e., the period for which MAT credit is allowed to be carried forward. In the
year in which the Company recognises MAT credit as an asset in accordance with the Guidance Note on Accounting for
Credit Available in respect of Minimum Alternative Tax under the Income-tax Act, 1961, the said asset is created by way of
credit to the statement of profit and loss and shown as MAT credit entitlement. The Company reviews the MAT credit
entitlement asset at each reporting date and writes down the asset to the extent the Company does not have convincing
evidence that it will pay normal tax during the specified period in future.
p.
Employee stock options

Employees of the Company receive remuneration in the form of share based payment transactions, whereby employees
render services as consideration for equity instruments (equity-settled transactions).
In accordance with the SEBI (Share Based Employee Benefits) Regulations, 2014 and the Guidance Note on Accounting for
Employee Share-based Payments, the cost of equity-settled transactions is measured using the intrinsic value method
and recognised, together with a corresponding increase in the Employee stock options outstanding account in
Reserves and surplus. The cumulative expense recognised for equity-settled transactions at each reporting date until
the vesting date reflects the extent to which the vesting period has expired and the Companys best estimate of the
number of equity instruments that will ultimately vest. The expense or credit recognised in the statement of profit and loss
for a period represents the movement in cumulative expense recognised as at the beginning and end of that period and is
recognised in employee benefits expense.
q.
Earnings/ (loss) per share

Basic earnings / (loss) per share are calculated by dividing the net profit / (loss) for the period attributable to equity
shareholders (after deducting preference dividends and attributable taxes) by the weighted average number of equity
shares outstanding during the period. The weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period are
adjusted for any bonus shares issued during the year and also after the balance sheet date but before the date the
financial statements are approved by the board of directors for the purpose of calculating diluted earnings / (loss) per
share. The net profit / (loss) for the period attributable to equity shareholders and the weighted average number of shares
outstanding during the period are adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potential equity shares.
The number of equity shares and potentially dilutive equity shares are adjusted for bonus shares as appropriate. The
dilutive potential equity shares are adjusted for the proceeds receivable, had the shares been issued at fair value. Dilutive
potential equity shares are deemed converted as of the beginning of the period, unless issued at a later date.
r.
Provisions
A provision is recognised when the Company has a present obligation as a result of past events; it is probable that an
outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation and in respect of which a reliable estimate can be made of the
amount of obligation. Provisions are not discounted to their present value and are determined based on best estimate
required to settle the obligation at the balance sheet date. These estimates are reviewed at each balance sheet date and
adjusted to reflect the current best estimates.
88
s.
Contingent liabilities
A contingent liability is a possible obligation that arises from past events whose existence will be confirmed by the
occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events beyond the control of the Company or a present
obligation that is not recognised because it is not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the
obligation. A contingent liability also arises in extremely rare cases where there is a liability that cannot be recognised
because it cannot be measured reliably.
The Company does not recognise a contingent liability but discloses its existence in the financial statements unless the
possibility of an outflow is remote.
t.
Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents for the purpose of cash flow statement comprise cash at bank and in hand, cheques on hand
and short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less.
u.
Measurement of EBITDA and EBIT

The Company has elected to present earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) and earnings
before interest and tax (EBIT) as a separate line item on the face of the statement of profit and loss. In the measurement of
EBITDA, the Company does not include depreciation and amortisation expense, finance cost, finance income, exceptional
and extraordinary items and tax expense. The Company reduces depreciation and amortisation expense from EBITDA to
measure EBIT.
4.
Corporate Debt Restructuring ('CDR')

During the financial year ended March 31, 2013, Suzlon Energy Limited (SEL) along with its 8 identified domestic subsidiaries
collectively referred to as the Borrowers and individually as the Borrower, had restructured various financial facilities
(restructured facilities) from the secured CDR lenders under the Corporate Debt Restructuring Proposal. Pursuant to approval of
CDR Package by the CDR Empowered Group (CDR EG), the implementation of the CDR package was formalised upon execution
of Master Restructuring Agreement (MRA) between the CDR Lenders and Borrowers during the financial year ending March 31,
2013. The MRA inter-alia covers the provisions to govern the terms and conditions of restructured facilities. Suzlon Global
Services Limited (SGSL) was also included as Borrower under the CDR package during financial year ended March 31, 2015.
The key features of the CDR package are as follows:
a.
Repayment of Restructured Term Loans (RTL) after moratorium of 2 years from cut-off date in 32 structured quarterly
instalments commencing from December 2014 to September 2022. The moratorium period of 2 years has expired on
September 30, 2014.
b.
Conversion of various irregular / outstanding / devolved financial facilities into Working Capital Term Loan (WCTL) and
the repayment terms of which are in similar to that of RTL with enabling mandatory prepayment obligations on realisation
of proceeds from certain asset sale and capital infusion.
c.
Restructuring of existing fund based and non-fund based working capital facilities, subject to renewal and reassessment
every year.
d.
Unpaid interest due on certain existing facilities on cut-off date, interest accrued during the moratorium period on RTL
and WCTL and interest on fund based working capital facilities for certain period were to be converted into Funded
Interest Term Loans (FITLs) and which were to be converted into equity shares of the Company.
e.
The rate of interest on RTL, WCTL, FITL and fund based working capital facilities were reduced to 11.00% per annum with
reset option in accordance with MRA.
f.
Waiver of existing events of defaults, penal interest and charges etc. in accordance with MRA.
g.
Contribution of Rs 250.00 Crore in SEL by promoters, their friends, relatives and business associates as stipulated,
conversion of existing promoters loan of Rs 145.00 Crore into equity shares / CCDs at the price determined in compliance
with Securities and Exchange Board of India.
Other key features of the CDR Package are:

a.
Right of Recompense to CDR Lenders for the relief and sacrifice extended, subject to provisions of CDR Guidelines and
MRA and;
b.
SEL to issue equity shares in lieu of sacrifice of the CDR Lenders for the first three years from cut-off date at the price
determined in compliance with Securities and Exchange Board of India, if exercised by CDR lenders.
In case of financial facilities availed from the non-CDR Lenders, the terms and conditions shall continue to be governed by the
provisions of the existing financing documents.
During the financial year ended March 31, 2015, the restructuring proposal with Power Finance Corporation (PFC) which is a
non-CDR lender was approved by CDR EG. As per the terms of restructuring, the PFC has converted certain portion of interest
accrued into FITL I and FITL II. Repayment of outstanding term loan would be in accordance with terms and conditions similar to
those of RTL, whereas repayment of FITL I would be made in 32 equal quarterly instalments and should be co-terminus with RTL.
Repayment of FITL II would be made in 12 quarterly instalments from December 2022 to September 2025. To give effect to the
restructuring a bilateral agreement between the Borrower and PFC was entered into on August 12, 2015.
89
5.
Recompense
Suzlon Energy Limited and its certain specified subsidiaries (collectively the Group) and the CDR lenders executed a Master
Restructuring Agreement (MRA) during the financial year ending March 31, 2013. The MRA as well as the provisions of the
Master Circular on Corporate Debt Restructuring issued by the Reserve Bank of India, gives a right to the CDR lenders to get a
recompense of their waivers and sacrifice made as part of the CDR Proposal. The recompense amount payable by the Group is
contingent upon the exit by the Borrowers which is inter-alia dependent upon improved financial performance and various
factors, the outcome of which currently is materially uncertain. Further, as mentioned in Note 4 to the financial statements, the
Borrowers have an obligation to issue equity shares in lieu of the sacrifice for the first three years from cut-off date. In case of CDR
lenders who have exercised the right for issuance of equity shares for the first three years and to whom the equity shares have
been issued, as a part of recompense, the cost is amortised over the period of sacrifice and the cost amortization is completed by
March 31, 2016. In case of CDR lenders who have not exercised this right, the recompense amount due to the date of this balance
sheet is not ascertainable.
6.
Sale of Senvion SE
On January 22, 2015, AE Rotor Holding B.V. a step-down wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and its subsidiaries signed a
binding agreement with Centerbridge Partners LP, USA to sell 100% stake in Senvion SE. The closing was subject to customary
closing conditions which got concluded on April 29, 2015. Accordingly, the Company has made an impairment provision of
Rs 426.69 Crore (Rs 5,920.00 Crore) in the value of investments in an overseas subsidiary and disclosed the same under
exceptional items.
7.

expected expenditure of servicing the WTGs over the period of free operation, maintenance and warranty, which varies according
to the terms of each sales order.
Liquidated damages ('LD') represents the expected claims which the Company may need to pay for non-fulfilment of certain
commitments as per the terms of the respective sales / purchase contracts. These are determined on a case to case basis
considering the dynamics of each contract and the factors relevant to that sale.

subsidiaries in earlier years. The Company has also recognised interest income on the loans given to these subsidiaries
pertaining to previous years and current year. Interest incomes on these loans were not recognised in previous year owing

Annexure 1 Annexure referred to in paragraph 7 (g) of our report of even date under the heading Report on Other Legal and
Regulatory Requirements
Report on the Internal Financial Controls under Clause (i) of Sub-section 3 of Section 143 of the Companies Act, 2013 (the Act)
1.
In conjunction with our audit of the consolidated financial statements of Suzlon Energy Limited as of and for the year ended
March 31, 2016, we have audited the internal financial controls over financial reporting of Suzlon Energy Limited (hereinafter
referred to as the Holding Company) and its subsidiary companies which are companies incorporated in India, as of that date.
Managements Responsibility for Internal Financial Controls

2.
The respective Board of Directors of the Holding Company and its subsidiary companies which are companies incorporated in
India, are responsible for establishing and maintaining internal financial controls based on the internal control over financial
reporting criteria established by the Holding Company considering the essential components of internal control stated in the
Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants
of India. These responsibilities include the design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls that
were operating effectively for ensuring the orderly and efficient conduct of its business, including adherence to the respective
companys policies, the safeguarding of its assets, the prevention and detection of frauds and errors, the accuracy and
completeness of the accounting records, and the timely preparation of reliable financial information, as required under the Act.
3.
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the company's internal financial controls over financial reporting based on our
audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial
Reporting (the Guidance Note) and the Standards on Auditing, both, issued by Institute of Chartered Accountants of India, and
deemed to be prescribed under section 143(10) of the Act, to the extent applicable to an audit of internal financial controls. Those
Standards and the Guidance Note require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether adequate internal financial controls over financial reporting was established and
maintained and if such controls operated effectively in all material respects.
4.
Our audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the adequacy of the internal financial controls system
over financial reporting and their operating effectiveness. Our audit of internal financial controls over financial reporting included
obtaining an understanding of internal financial controls over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness
exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. The
procedures selected depend on the auditors judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the
financial statements, whether due to fraud or error.
5.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the
internal financial controls system over financial reporting.
Meaning of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting

6.
A company's internal financial control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding
the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles. A company's internal financial control over financial reporting includes those policies and
procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions
and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to
permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and
expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorisations of management and directors of the
company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorised acquisition, use, or
disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Inherent Limitations of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting

7.
Because of the inherent limitations of internal financial controls over financial reporting, including the possibility of collusion or
improper management override of controls, material misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. Also,
projections of any evaluation of the internal financial controls over financial reporting to future periods are subject to the risk that
the internal financial control over financial reporting may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the
degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Opinion
8.
In our opinion, the Holding Company and its subsidiary companies which are companies incorporated in India, have, maintained
in all material respects, an adequate internal financial controls system over financial reporting and such internal financial controls
over financial reporting were operating effectively as at March 31, 2016, based on the internal control over financial reporting
criteria established by the Holding Company considering the essential components of internal control stated in the Guidance
Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India.

Notes to consolidated financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2016
1.
Corporate information
Suzlon Energy Limited (SEL or the Company) is a public company domiciled in India. Its shares are listed on two stock
exchanges in India. The Company is primarily engaged in the business of manufacturing of wind turbine generators (WTGs) and
related components of various capacities.
2.
Basis of preparation
The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of Suzlon Energy Limited (SEL or the Company) and its
subsidiaries (together referred to as Suzlon or the Group) and its joint ventures and associates. The consolidated financial
statements are prepared under the historical cost convention, on accrual basis of accounting except in case of assets for which
provision for impairment is made and derivative instruments which have been measured at fair value to comply in all material
respects, with the mandatory accounting standards as notified under section 133 of the Companies Act 2013 read with Rule 7 of the
Companies (Accounts) Rules 2014 (Rules). The accounting policies have been consistently applied by the Group; and the accounting
policies not referred to otherwise, are in conformity with Indian Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (Indian GAAP).
The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of financial statements are consistent with those of previous year, except for
change in accounting policy explained below.
3.

Change in accounting policy
Component accounting
The Group has adopted component accounting as required under Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013 from April 01, 2015.
Due to application of Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013, the Group has changed the manner of depreciation for its fixed
asset. Until previous year, the Group was not identifying components of fixed asset separately for depreciation purposes; rather, a
single useful life/ depreciation rate was used to depreciate each item of fixed asset, However, now it identifies and determines
cost of each component/ part of the asset separately, if the component/ part has a cost which is significant to the total cost of the
asset having useful life that is materially different from that of the remaining asset. These components are depreciated over their
useful lives; the remaining asset is depreciated over the life of the principal asset. The Group has also changed its policy on
recognition of cost of major inspection/ overhaul. Earlier Group used to charge such cost directly to statement of profit and loss.
On application of component accounting, the major inspection/ overhaul is identified as a separate component of the asset at the
time of purchase of new asset and subsequently. The cost of such major inspection/ overhaul is depreciated separately over the
period till next major inspection/ overhaul. Upon next major inspection/ overhaul, the costs of new major inspection/ overhaul
are added to the asset's cost and any amount remaining from the previous inspection/ overhaul is derecognised.
The above change in accounting policy does not have any material impact on depreciation, repair and maintenance expense,
profit for the current period as well as the valuation of fixed assets as at March 31, 2016.
a.
Principles of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements of the Group are prepared in accordance with Accounting Standard 21 Consolidated
Financial Statements, Accounting Standard 23 Accounting for Investments in Associates in Consolidated Financial
Statements and Accounting Standard 27 Financial Reporting of Interests in Joint Ventures as notified by the Rules.
The consolidated financial statements are presented, to the extent possible, in the same format as that adopted by the
Company for its standalone financial statements.
Subsidiaries
Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date of acquisition, being the date on which the Group obtains control, and
continue to be consolidated until the date that such control ceases.
The financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries have been combined on a line-by-line basis by adding
together the book values of like items of assets, liabilities, income and expenses, after eliminating intra group balances and
intra group transactions. The unrealised profits or losses resulting from the intra group transactions and intra group
balances have been eliminated.
The excess of the cost to the Company of its investment in the subsidiaries over the Company's portion of equity on the
acquisition date is recognised in the financial statements as goodwill and is tested for impairment annually. The excess of
Companys portion of equity of the subsidiary over the cost of investment therein is treated as capital reserve.
The Companys portion of the equity in the subsidiaries at the date of acquisition is determined after realigning the
material accounting policies of the subsidiaries to that of the parent and the charge/(reversal) on account of realignment is
adjusted to the accumulated reserves and surplus of the subsidiaries at the date of acquisition.
The consolidated financial statements are prepared using uniform accounting policies for like transactions and events in
similar circumstances and necessary adjustments required for deviations, if any to the extent possible unless otherwise
stated, are made in the consolidated financial statements and are presented in the same manner as the Companys
standalone financial statements.
Share of minority interest in the net profit is adjusted against the income to arrive at the net income attributable to
shareholders of the parent Company. Minority interests share of net assets is presented separately in the balance sheet.
If the losses attributable to the minority in a consolidated subsidiary exceed the minority's share in equity of the subsidiary,
then the excess, and any further losses applicable to the minority, are adjusted against the Group's interest except to the
extent that the minority has a binding obligation to, and is able to, make good the losses. If the subsidiary subsequently
reports profits, all such profits are allocated to the Group's interest until the minoritys share of losses previously absorbed
by the Group has been adjusted.
A change in the ownership interest of a subsidiary, without a loss of control is accounted for as an equity transaction.
If the Group loses control over a subsidiary, it:
a)
b)
c)
d)
e)
f)
derecognises the assets (including goodwill) and liabilities of the subsidiary;

derecognises the carrying amount of any minority interest;
derecognises the cumulative translation differences, recorded in foreign currency translation reserve;
recognises the value of the consideration received;
recognises the value of any investment retained;
recognises any surplus or deficit in profit or loss;
Associates
The Groups investment in its associate is accounted for using the equity method. An associate is an entity in which the
Group has significant influence.
Under the equity method, the investment in the associate is carried in the balance sheet at cost plus post acquisition
changes in the Groups share of net assets of the associate. Goodwill relating to the associate is included in the carrying
amount of the investment and is neither amortised nor individually tested for impairment. The statement of profit and loss
reflects the share of the results of operations of the associate. Unrealised gains and losses resulting from transactions
between the Group and the associate are eliminated to the extent of the interest in the associate.
After application of the equity method, the Group determines whether it is necessary to recognise decline, other than
temporary, in the value of the Groups investment in its associates. The Group determines at each reporting date whether
there is any objective evidence that the investment in the associate is impaired. If this is the case the Group calculates the
amount of provision for diminution as the difference between the recoverable amount of the associate and its carrying
value and recognises the amount in the statement of profit and loss.
Joint venture
The Group recognises its interest in the joint venture using the proportionate consolidation method as per Accounting
Standard 27 Financial Reporting of Interests in Joint Ventures as notified by the Rules. The Group combines its
proportionate share of each of the assets, liabilities, income and expenses of the joint venture with similar items, line by
line, in its consolidated financial statements.
b.
Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Indian GAAP requires the management to make judgements,
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent liabilities, at the end of the reporting period. Although, these estimates are based upon managements best
knowledge of current events and actions, uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in the
outcomes requiring a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities in future periods.
c.
Tangible fixed assets

Fixed assets are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. The cost
comprises purchase price, borrowing costs if capitalisation criteria are met and directly attributable cost of bringing the
asset to its working condition for the intended use. The manufacturing costs of internally generated assets comprise direct
costs and attributable overheads.
Capital work-in-progress comprises of the cost of fixed assets that are not yet ready for their intended use as at the balance
sheet date. Assets held for disposal are stated at the lower of net book value and the estimated net realisable value.
When significant parts of plant and equipment are required to be replaced at intervals, the Company depreciates them
separately based on their specific useful lives. Likewise, when a major inspection is performed, its cost is recognised in the
carrying amount of the plant and equipment as a replacement if the recognition criteria are satisfied. All other repair and
maintenance costs are recognised in the statement of profit and loss when they are incurred.
The Group adjusts exchange differences arising on translation/ settlement of long-term foreign currency monetary items
pertaining to the acquisition of a depreciable asset to the cost of the asset and depreciates the same over the remaining
life of the asset. In accordance with MCA circular dated 09 August 2012, exchange differences adjusted to the cost of fixed
assets are total differences, arising on long-term foreign currency monetary items pertaining to the acquisition of a
depreciable asset, for the period. In other words, the Group does not differentiate between exchange differences arising
from foreign currency borrowings to the extent they are regarded as an adjustment to the interest cost and other
exchange differences.
Gains or losses arising from derecognition of fixed assets are measured as the difference between the net disposal
proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset on the date of disposal and are recognised in the statement of profit and
loss when the asset is derecognised.
130
The Group identifies and determines the cost of each component/ part of the asset separately, if the component/ part has
a cost which is significant to the total cost of the asset and has useful life that is materially different from that of the
remaining asset.
Fixed assets held for sale is valued at lower of their carrying amount and net realizable value. Any write-down is recognized
in the statement of profit and loss.
d.
Depreciation on tangible fixed assets

Depreciation on tangible fixed assets is calculated on the written down value method (WDV) based on the useful lives and
residual values estimated by the management in accordance with Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013. The identified
components are depreciated separately over their useful lives; the remaining components are depreciated over the life of
the principal asset. Leasehold land is amortised on a straight line basis over the period of lease.
Some of the subsidiaries of the Group provide depreciation on straight line method (SLM).
e.
Intangible fixed assets

Intangible assets acquired separately are measured on initial recognition at cost. Following initial recognition, intangible
assets are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. Internally generated
intangible assets, excluding capitalised development costs, are not capitalised and expenditure is reflected in the
statement of profit and loss in the year in which the expenditure is incurred. Intangible assets are amortized on a straight
line basis over the estimated useful economic life.
The amortisation period and the amortisation method are reviewed at least at each financial year end. If the expected
useful life of the asset is significantly different from previous estimates, the amortisation period is changed accordingly. If
there has been a significant change in the expected pattern of economic benefits from the asset, the amortisation method
is changed to reflect the changed pattern. Such changes are accounted for in accordance with AS 5 Net Profit or Loss for
the Period, Prior Period Items and Changes in Accounting Policies.
Gains or losses arising from derecognition of an intangible asset are measured as the difference between the net disposal
proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset on the date of disposal and are recognised in the statement of profit and
loss when the asset is derecognised.
Research and development costs
Research costs are expensed as incurred. Development expenditure incurred on an individual project is recognised as an
intangible asset when the Group can demonstrate all the following:
i)
ii)
iii)
iv)
v)
vi)
The technical feasibility of completing the intangible asset so that it will be available for use or sale.
Its intention to complete the asset.
Its ability to use or sell the asset.
How the asset will generate future economic benefits.
The availability of adequate resources to complete the development and to use or sell the asset.
The ability to measure reliably the expenditure attributable to the intangible asset during development.
Following the initial recognition of the development expenditure as an asset, the cost model is applied requiring the asset
to be carried at cost less any accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses. Amortisation of the asset
begins when development is complete and the asset is available for use. It is amortised on a straight line basis over the
period of expected future benefit from the related project, i.e., the estimated useful life. Amortisation is recognised in the
statement of profit and loss. During the period of development, the asset is tested for impairment annually.
Intangible assets are amortised on a straight line basis over the estimated useful economic life which generally does not
exceed five years.
f.
Leases
I.
Where the Group is a lessee

Leases, where the lessor effectively retains substantially all the risks and benefits of ownership of the leased item,
are classified as operating leases. Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense in the statement of profit
and loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Initial direct costs such as legal costs, brokerage costs, etc. are
recognised immediately in the statement of profit and loss.
II.
Where the Group is a lessor

Leases in which the Group does not transfer substantially all the risks and benefits of ownership of the asset are
classified as operating leases. Assets subject to operating leases are included in fixed assets. Lease income on an
operating lease is recognised in the statement of profit and loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Costs,
including depreciation, are recognised as an expense in the statement of profit and loss.
g.
Borrowing costs
Borrowing cost primarily includes interest and amortisation of ancillary costs incurred in connection with the arrangement
of borrowings.
Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of an asset that necessarily takes a
substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use or sale are capitalised as part of the cost of the respective asset.
All other borrowing costs are expensed in the period they occur.
h.
Impairment of tangible and intangible assets

The Group assesses at each reporting date whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. If any indication
exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the Group estimates the assets recoverable amount. An
assets recoverable amount is the higher of an assets or cash-generating units (CGU) net selling price and its value in use.
The recoverable amount is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are
largely independent of those from other assets or groups of assets. Where the carrying amount of an asset or CGU exceeds
its recoverable amount, the asset is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount. Impairment losses
are recognised in the statement of profit and loss.
In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount
rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. In determining
net selling price, recent market transactions are taken into account, if available. If no such transactions can be identified, an
appropriate valuation model is used.
After impairment, depreciation is provided on the revised carrying amount of the asset over its remaining useful life.
The impairment loss recognised in prior accounting periods is reversed if there has been a change in estimates of
recoverable amount. The carrying value after reversal is not increased beyond the carrying value that would have prevailed
by charging usual depreciation if there was no impairment.
i.
Government grant and subsidies

Grants and subsidies from the government are recognised when there is reasonable assurance that (i) the Group will
comply with the conditions attached to them, and (ii) the grant/subsidy will be received.
When the grant or subsidy relates to revenue, it is recognised as income on a systematic basis in the statement of profit
and loss over the periods necessary to match them with the related costs, which they are intended to compensate. Where
the grant relates to an asset, it is recognised as deferred income and released to income in equal amounts over the
expected useful life of the related asset.
j.
Investments
Investments which are readily realisable and intended to be held for not more than one year from the date on which such
investments are made, are classified as current investments. All other investments are classified as long-term investments.
On initial recognition, all investments are measured at cost. The cost comprises purchase price and directly attributable
acquisition charges such as brokerage, fees and duties. If an investment is acquired, or partly acquired, by the issue of
shares or other securities, the acquisition cost is the fair value of the securities issued.
Current investments are carried in the financial statements at the lower of cost and fair value, determined on an individual
investment basis.
Long-term investments are carried at cost. However, provision for diminution is made to recognise a decline, other than
temporary, in the value of the investments. Investments in associates are accounted for using the equity method.
On disposal of an investment, the difference between its carrying amount and net disposal proceeds is charged or credited
to the statement of profit and loss.
k.
Inventories
Inventories of raw materials including stores and spares and consumables, packing materials, semi-finished goods,
components, work-in-progress, project work-in-progress and finished goods are valued at the lower of cost and
estimated net realisable value. Cost is determined on weighted average basis.
The cost of work-in-progress, project work-in-progress, semi-finished goods and finished goods includes the cost of
material, labour and a proportion of manufacturing overheads.
Stock of land and land lease rights is valued at lower of cost and estimated net realisable value. Cost is determined on
weighted average basis. Net realisable value is determined by management using technical estimates.
l.
Revenue recognition
Revenue is recognised to the extent it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Group and that the revenue
can be reliably measured. Revenue comprises of sale of goods and services and is disclosed, net of trade discounts, excise
duty, sales tax, service tax, VAT or other taxes, as applicable.
Sales
Revenue from sale of goods is recognised in the statement of profit and loss when the significant risks and rewards in
respect of ownership of goods has been transferred to the buyer as per the terms of the respective sales order and the
income can be measured reliably and is expected to be received.
Fixed price contracts to deliver wind power systems (turnkey and projects involving installation and/or commissioning
apart from supply) are recognised in revenue based on the stage of completion of the individual contract using the
percentage completion method, provided the order outcome as well as expected total costs can be reliably estimated.
Where the profit from a contract cannot be estimated reliably, revenue is only recognised equalling the expenses incurred
to the extent that it is probable that the expenses will be recovered.
132
Due from customers, if any, are measured at the selling price of the work performed based on the stage of completion less
interim billing and expected losses. The stage of completion is measured by the proportion that the contract expenses
incurred to date bear to the estimated total contract expenses. The value of components is recognised in 'Contracts in
progress' upon dispatch of the complete set of components which are specifically identified for a customer and are within
the scope of contract, or on completion of relevant milestones, depending on the type of contracts. Where it is probable
that total contract expenses will exceed total revenues from a contract, the expected loss is recognised immediately as an
expense in the statement of profit and loss.
Where the selling price of a contract cannot be estimated reliably, the selling price is measured only on the expenses
incurred to the extent that it is probable that these expenses will be recovered. Prepayments from customers are
recognised as liabilities. A contract in progress for which the selling price of the work performed exceeds interim billings
and expected losses is recognised as an asset. Contracts in progress for which interim billings and expected losses exceed
the selling price are recognised as a liability. Expenses relating to sales work and the winning of contracts are recognised in
the statement of profit and loss as incurred.
Operation and maintenance income
Revenues from operation and maintenance contracts are recognised pro-rata over the period of the contract and when
services are rendered.
Project execution income
Revenue from services relating to project execution is recognised on completion of respective service, as per terms of the
respective sales order.
Power evacuation infrastructure facilities
Revenue from power evacuation infrastructure facilities is recognised upon commissioning and electrical installation of
the Wind Turbine Generator (WTG) to the said facilities followed by approval for commissioning of WTG from the
concerned authorities.
Land revenue
Revenue from land lease activity is recognised upon the transfer of leasehold rights to the customers. Revenue from sale of
land/right to sale land is recognised when significant risks and rewards in respect of title of land are transferred to the
customers as per the terms of the respective sales order. Revenue from land development is recognised upon rendering of
the service as per the terms of the respective sales order.
Interest income
Interest income is recognised on a time proportion basis taking into account the amount outstanding and the rate
applicable. In case of interest charged to customers, interest is accounted for on availability of documentary evidence that
the customer has accepted the liability.
Dividend income
Dividend income from investments is recognised when the right to receive payment is established.
Royalty and license income
Royalty and license income is recognised on accrual basis in accordance with the terms of the relevant agreements.
m.
Foreign currency transactions

(i)
Initial recognition
Foreign currency transactions are recorded in the reporting currency, by applying to the foreign currency amount
the exchange rate between the reporting currency and the foreign currency at the date of the transaction.
(ii)
Conversion
Foreign currency monetary items are retranslated using the exchange rate prevailing at the reporting date. Nonmonetary items, which are measured in terms of historical cost denominated in a foreign currency, are reported
using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction. Non-monetary items, which are measured at fair value or
other similar valuation denominated in a foreign currency, are translated using the exchange rate at the date when
such value was determined.
Foreign currency transactions entered into by branches, which are integral foreign operations are accounted in the
same manner as foreign currency transactions described above. Branch monetary assets and liabilities are restated
at the year-end rates.
(iii)
Exchange differences
The Group accounts for exchange differences arising on translation/ settlement of foreign currency monetary
items as below:
1.
Exchange differences arising on long-term foreign currency monetary items related to acquisition of a fixed
asset are capitalised and depreciated over the remaining useful life of the asset. The Group treats a foreign
currency monetary item as long-term foreign currency monetary item, if it has a term of 12 months or
more at the date of its origination.
2.
Exchange differences arising on other long-term foreign currency monetary items are accumulated in the
Foreign Currency Monetary Item Translation Difference Account and amortized over the remaining life of
the concerned monetary item. It is presented as a part of Reserves and surplus.
3.
All other exchange differences are recognised as income or as expense in the period in which they arise.
In case of exchange differences adjusted to the cost of fixed assets or arising on long-term foreign currency
monetary items, the Group does not consider exchange differences as an adjustment to the interest cost.
(iv)
Forward exchange contracts entered into to hedge foreign currency risk of an existing asset/ liability
The premium or discount arising at the inception of forward exchange contract is amortised and recognised as an
expense/ income over the life of the contract. Exchange differences on such contracts are recognised in the statement
of profit and loss in the period in which the exchange rates change. Any profit or loss arising on cancellation or renewal
of such forward exchange contract is also recognised as income or as expense for the period.
(v)
Foreign operations
The financial statements of integral foreign operations are translated as if the transactions of the foreign operations
have been those of the Group itself.
In translating the financial statements of a non-integral foreign operation, the assets and liabilities, both monetary
and non-monetary, are translated at the closing rate; income and expense items are translated at average
exchange rates (Average rates approximates the rate on the date of transaction) prevailing during the year and all
resulting exchange differences are accumulated in a foreign currency translation reserve until the disposal of the
net investment in the non-integral foreign operation.
On the disposal of a non-integral foreign operation, the cumulative amount of the exchange differences which
have been deferred and which relate to that operation are recognised as income or as expenses in the same period
in which the gain or loss on disposal is recognised.
When there is a change in the classification of a foreign operation, the translation procedures applicable to the
revised classification are applied from the date of the change in classification.
n.
Derivatives
As per the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI) announcement, derivative contracts, other than those covered
under AS-11, are marked to market on a portfolio basis and the net loss after considering the offsetting effect on the
underlying hedge items is charged to the statement of profit and loss. Net gains on marked to market basis are not recognised.
o.
Retirement and other employee benefits

Employee benefits in the nature of defined contributions are charged to the statement of profit and loss of the year, when
an employee renders the related service. There are no other obligations other than the contribution payable to the
respective statutory authorities.
Defined contributions to superannuation fund are charged to the statement of profit and loss on accrual basis.
Retirement benefits in the form of gratuity and pension are defined benefit obligations and are provided for on the basis of
an actuarial valuation, using projected unit credit method as at each balance sheet date.
Short-term compensated absences are provided based on estimates. Long term compensated absences and other longterm employee benefits are provided for on the basis of an actuarial valuation, using projected unit credit method, as at
each balance sheet date. The entire leave is presented as a current liability in the balance sheet, since it does not have an
unconditional right to defer its settlement for 12 months after the reporting date.
Actuarial gains/losses are taken to statement of statement of profit and loss and are not deferred.
p.
Taxes on income
Tax expense comprises current and deferred tax. Current income-tax is measured at the amount expected to be paid to the
tax authorities in accordance with the Income-tax Act, 1961 enacted in India and tax laws prevailing in the respective tax
jurisdictions where the Group operates. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted
or substantively enacted, at the reporting date. Current income tax relating to items recognised directly in equity is
recognised in equity and not in the statement of profit and loss.
Deferred income taxes reflect the impact of timing differences between taxable income and accounting income
originating during the current year and reversal of timing differences for the earlier years. Deferred tax is measured using
the tax rates and the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date. Deferred income tax relating to items
recognised directly in equity is recognised in equity and not in the statement of profit and loss.
Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable timing differences. Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible
timing differences only to the extent that there is reasonable certainty that sufficient future taxable income will be
available against which such deferred tax assets can be realised. In situations where the Group has unabsorbed
depreciation or carry forward tax losses, all deferred tax assets are recognised only if there is virtual certainty supported by
convincing evidence that they can be realised against future taxable profits.
In the situations where the Group is entitled to a tax holiday under the Income-tax Act, 1961 enacted in India or tax laws
prevailing in the respective tax jurisdictions where it operates, no deferred tax (asset or liability) is recognised in respect of
timing differences which reverse during the tax holiday period, to the extent the Groups gross total income is subject to
134
the deduction during the tax holiday period. Deferred tax in respect of timing differences which reverse after the tax
holiday period is recognized in the year in which the timing differences originate. However, the Group restricts recognition
of deferred tax assets to the extent that it has become reasonably certain or virtually certain, as the case may be, that
sufficient future taxable income will be available against which such deferred tax assets can be realised. For recognition of
deferred taxes, the timing differences which originate first are considered to reverse first.
At each reporting date, the Group re-assesses unrecognised deferred tax assets. It recognises unrecognised deferred tax
asset to the extent that it has become reasonably certain or virtually certain, as the case may be, that sufficient future
taxable income will be available against which such deferred tax assets can be realised.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date. The Group writes-down the carrying
amount of deferred tax asset to the extent that it is no longer reasonably certain or virtually certain, as the case may be,
that sufficient future taxable income will be available against which deferred tax asset can be realised. Any such writedown is reversed to the extent that it becomes reasonably certain or virtually certain, as the case may be, that sufficient
future taxable income will be available.
Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset, if a legally enforceable right exists to set-off current tax assets
against current tax liabilities and the deferred tax assets and deferred taxes relate to the same taxable entity and the same
taxation authority.
Minimum alternate tax (MAT) paid in a year is charged to the statement of profit and loss as current tax. The Group
recognises MAT credit available as an asset only to the extent that there is convincing evidence that the Group will pay
normal income tax during the specified period, i.e., the period for which MAT credit is allowed to be carried forward. In the
year in which the Group recognises MAT credit as an asset in accordance with the Guidance Note on Accounting for Credit
Available in respect of Minimum Alternative Tax under the Income-tax Act, 1961, the said asset is created by way of credit
to the statement of profit and loss and shown as MAT Credit Entitlement. The Group reviews the MAT credit entitlement
asset at each reporting date and writes down the asset to the extent the Group does not have convincing evidence that it
will pay normal tax during the specified period in future.
q.
Employee stock options

Employees of the Group receive remuneration in the form of share based payment transactions, whereby employees
render services as consideration for equity instruments (equity-settled transactions).
In accordance with the SEBI (Share Based Employee Benefits) Regulations, 2014 and the Guidance Note on Accounting for
Employee Share-based Payments, the cost of equity-settled transactions is measured using the intrinsic value method and
recognised, together with a corresponding increase in the Employee stock options outstanding account in Reserves
and surplus. The cumulative expense recognised for equity-settled transactions at each reporting date until the vesting
date reflects the extent to which the vesting period has expired and the Companys best estimate of the number of equity
instruments that will ultimately vest. The expense or credit recognised in the statement of profit and loss for a period
represents the movement in cumulative expense recognised as at the beginning and end of that period and is recognised
in employee benefits expense.
r.
Earnings / (loss) per share

Basic earnings / (loss) per share are calculated by dividing the net profit / (loss) for the period attributable to equity
shareholders (after deducting preference dividends and attributable taxes) by the weighted average number of equity
shares outstanding during the period. The weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period are
adjusted for any bonus shares issued during the year and also after the balance sheet date but before the date the financial
statements are approved by the board of directors. For the purpose of calculating diluted earnings/(loss) per share, the
net profit/(loss) for the period attributable to equity shareholders and the weighted average number of shares
outstanding during the period are adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potential equity shares.
The number of equity shares and potentially dilutive equity shares are adjusted for bonus shares as appropriate. The
dilutive potential equity shares are adjusted for the proceeds receivable, had the shares been issued at fair value. Dilutive
potential equity shares are deemed converted as of the beginning of the period, unless issued at a later date.
s.
Provisions
A provision is recognised when the Group has a present obligation as a result of past events and it is probable that an
outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation and in respect of which a reliable estimate can be made of the
amount of obligation. Provisions are not discounted to their present value and are determined based on best estimate
required to settle the obligation at the balance sheet date. These estimates are reviewed at each balance sheet date and
adjusted to reflect the current best estimates.
t.
A contingent liability is a possible obligation that arises from past events whose existence will be confirmed by the
occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events beyond the control of the Group or a present
obligation that is not recognised because it is not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the
obligation. A contingent liability also arises in extremely rare cases where there is a liability that cannot be recognised
because it cannot be measured reliably. The Group does not recognise a contingent liability but discloses its existence in
the financial statements unless the possibility of an outflow is remote.
u.
Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents in the cash flow statement comprise cash at bank and on hand, cheques on hand and shortterm investments with an original maturity of three months or less.
v.
Measurement of EBITDA and EBIT

The Group has elected to present earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) and earnings
before interest and tax (EBIT) as a separate line item on the face of the statement of profit and loss. In the measurement of
EBITDA, the Group does not include depreciation and amortisation expense, finance cost, finance income, exceptional and
extraordinary items and tax expense. The Group reduces depreciation and amortisation expense from EBITDA to measure
EBIT.

Corporate debt restructuring (CDR)
4.1
During the financial year ended March 31, 2013, Suzlon Energy Limited along with its 8 identified domestic subsidiaries
collectively referred to as the Borrowers and individually as the Borrower, had restructured various financial facilities
(restructured facilities) from the secured CDR lenders under the Corporate Debt Restructuring Proposal. Pursuant to approval of
CDR Package by the CDR Empowered Group (CDR EG), the implementation of the CDR package was formalised upon execution
of Master Restructuring Agreement (MRA) between the CDR Lenders and Borrowers during the financial year ending March 31,
2013. The MRA inter-alia covers the provisions to govern the terms and conditions of restructured facilities. Suzlon Global
Services Limited (SGSL) was included as Borrower under the CDR package during financial year ended March 31, 2015.
The key features of the CDR package are as follows:
a.
Repayment of Restructured Term Loans (RTL) after moratorium of 2 years from cut-off date in 32 structured quarterly
instalments commencing from December 2014 to September 2022. The moratorium period of 2 years has expired on
September 30, 2014.
b.
Conversion of various irregular/outstanding/devolved financial facilities into Working Capital Term Loan (WCTL) and the
repayment terms of which are in similar to that of RTL with enabling mandatory prepayment obligations on realisation of
proceeds from certain asset sale and capital infusion.
c.
Restructuring of existing fund based and non-fund based working capital facilities, subject to renewal and reassessment
every year.
d.
Unpaid Interest due on certain existing facilities on cut-off date, interest accrued during the moratorium period on RTL
and WCTL and interest on fund based working capital facilities for certain period were to be converted into Funded
Interest Term Loans (FITLs) and which were to be converted into equity shares of the Company.
e.
The rate of interest on RTL, WCTL, FITL and fund based working capital facilities were reduced to 11% per annum with reset
option in accordance with MRA.
f.
Waiver of existing events of defaults, penal interest and charges etc. in accordance with MRA.
g.
Contribution of Rs 250.00 Crore in SEL by promoters, their friends, relatives and business associates as stipulated,
conversion of existing promoters loan of Rs 145.00 Crore into equity shares/CCDs at the price determined in compliance
with Securities and Exchange Board of India.
Other key features of the CDR Package are:

a.
Right of Recompense to CDR Lenders for the relief and sacrifice extended, subject to provisions of CDR Guidelines and
MRA and;
b.
SEL to issue equity shares in lieu of sacrifice of the CDR Lenders for the first three years from cut-off date at the price
determined in compliance with Securities and Exchange Board of India, if exercised by CDR lenders.
In case of financial facilities availed from the non-CDR Lenders, the terms and conditions shall continue to be governed by the
provisions of the existing financing documents.
During the financial year ended March 31, 2015, the restructuring proposal with Power Finance Corporation (PFC) which is a
non-CDR lender was approved by CDR EG. As per the terms of restructuring, the PFC has converted certain portion of interest
accrued into FITL I and FITL II. Repayment of outstanding term loan would be in accordance with terms and conditions similar to

Company, the corporate debt restructuring proposal ('CDR Proposal') of SEFL was referred to Corporate Debt Restructuring Cell
("CDR Cell") by the consortium of all lenders led by the Punjab National Bank. The CDR Proposal as recommended by Punjab
National Bank, the lead lender and approved by lenders who are member of CDR Cell who are herein after referred to as the "CDR
Lender' was approved by CDR Empowered Group ('CDR EG') on May 23, 2013 and communicated vide Letter of Approval dated
June 5th, 2013. During the year, SEFL got the consent of the lead lender Punjab National Bank, with members of CDR cell to the
exit of SEFL from CDR scheme. Consequently, CDR Empowered Group (CDR EG) has given consent to the SEFL for exit from CDR
scheme in its meeting held on December 28, 2015. The SEFL has repaid Working Capital Term Loan (WCTL) and Funded Interest
Term Loan ('FITL') under the prepayment option of the CDR scheme. Repayment of Restructured Term Loan ('RTL') after
moratorium of 2 years from cut-off date in 32 structured quarterly instalments commencing from December 2014 to September
2022 did not undergo any change and continues as it is.
5.
Recompense
The Borrowers and the CDR lenders executed a Master Restructuring Agreement (MRA) during the financial year ending March
31, 2013. The MRA as well as the provisions of the Master Circular on Corporate Debt Restructuring issued by the Reserve Bank of
India, gives a right to the CDR lenders to get a recompense of their waivers and sacrifice made as part of the CDR Proposal. The
recompense amount payable by the Borrowers is contingent upon the exit by the Borrowers which is inter-alia dependent upon
improved financial performance and various factors, the outcome of which currently is materially uncertain. Further, as
mentioned in Note 4 to the financial statements, the Borrowers have an obligation to issue equity shares in lieu of the sacrifice for
the first three years from cut-off date. In case of CDR lenders who have exercised the right for issuance of equity shares for the
first three years and to whom the equity shares have been issued, as a part of recompense, the cost is amortised over the period of
sacrifice and the cost amortisation is completed by March 31, 2016. In case of CDR lenders who have not exercised this right, the
recompense amount due to the date of this balance sheet is not ascertainable.

Performance guarantee ('PG') represents the expected outflow of resources against claims for performance shortfall expected in
future over the life of the guarantee assured. The period of performance guarantee varies for each customer according to the
terms of contract. The key assumptions in arriving at the performance guarantee provisions are wind velocity, plant load factor,
grid availability, load shedding, historical data, wind variation factor etc.
Operation, maintenance and warranty ('O&M') represents the expected liability on account of field failure of parts of WTG and
expected expenditure of servicing the WTGs over the period of free operation, maintenance and warranty, which varies according
to the terms of each sales order.
Liquidated damages ('LD') represents the expected claims which the Group may need to pay for non fulfilment of certain
commitments as per the terms of the sales order. These are determined on a case to case basis considering the dynamics of each
sales order and the factors relevant to that sale.
The figures shown against Utilisation represent withdrawal from provisions credited to statement of profit and loss to offset the
expenditure incurred during the year and debited to statement of profit and loss.

On March 28, 2013, AE-Rotor Holding B.V. ("AERH"), a step-down wholly owned subsidiary of the Company had issued
4.969% coupon rate USD 647 million Bonds due 2018. The bonds were secured against an unconditional and irrevocable
Stand-by Letter of Credit ("SBLC") issued by State Bank of India. On account of occurrence of a prepayment event under
the Bond documents, pursuant to the approvals received from RBI, on April 29, 2016, bonds were partially redeemed and
Bonds worth USD 590.40 million were thus redeemed by availing a credit facility of USD 590.40 million from State Bank of
India, London Branch and Export-Import Bank of India, London Branch, at coupon rate of 3.30%. As a part of the
transaction, the SBLC issued by SBI in relation to the Bonds has been amended to secure both the credit facility and the
balance portion of the Bonds such that post amendment the value of the SBLC remained the same. In view of this, the
foreign currency monetary item translation difference account ('FCMITDA') and unamortised cost as on March 31, 2016
relating to redeemed bonds amounting to Rs 282.85 Crore has been charged off in the statement of profit and loss.
b)
Persuant to restructuring of USD 175 Million 5% April 2016 Series foreign currency convertible bonds, USD 146.20 Million
of the principal amount have been substituted by the new restructured bonds and USD 28.80 Million of the principal
amount remain outstanding during financial year 2015. In view of this the foreign currency monetary item translation
difference account ('FCMITDA') relating to restructured bonds of 5% April 2016 Series amounting to Rs 103.43 Crore had
been charged off in the statement of profit and loss during financial year ended March 31, 2015.
c)
The Indian Wind Energy Association ("InWEA") of which the Group is a member had filed a civil appeal in the Supreme
Court against an order of the Appellate Tribunal for Electricity in regard to levy of Infrastructure Development Charges
("IDC") by Tamil Nadu State Electricity Board, and the matter is pending the hearing of the Supreme Court. The Group
continues to expect a favourable outcome. However, in view of delay in hearing, as a prudent measure, the Company
during financial year 2015, had made a provision of Rs 55.00 Crore and disclosed the same under exceptional items.
Accordingly, the matter of emphasis reported by the auditors in the previous years towards uncertainty on contingencies
has been resolved during financial year ended March 31, 2015.
d)
During financial year ended March 31, 2015, the Group had made a provision of Rs 81.01 Crore on account of certain tax

Compensation payable in lieu of bank sacrifice
Others
* includes demand from tax authorities for various matters. The Group / tax department has preferred appeals on these matters
and the same are pending with various appellate authorities. Considering the facts of the matters, no provision is considered
necessary by management
A few law suits have been filed on the Company and few subsidiaries of the Company by some of their suppliers for disputes in
fulfilment of obligations as per supply agreements. Further, few customers of the Company and its few subsidiaries has disputed
certain amount as receivable which the Company believes is contractually not payable. These matters are pending for hearing
before respective courts, the outcome of which is uncertain. The management has provided for an amount as a matter of
prudence which it believes shall be the probable outflow of resources.
During the financial year ended March 31, 2014, one of the subsidiaries received tax infraction notices from tax authorities which
have been contested by the subsidiary. The defence to such infraction notices has been duly filed at the administrative court,
which ruled in first instance partially favourable to the subsidiary. The case has been object of appeal to the second instance, which
already maintained the result of the first instance ruling for some of the infractions. Some infractions will be ruled during the
course of the financial year 2016 and a third instance still exists before the phase before the judicial court. Though the Group
believes that it has a good chance of getting a favourable outcome, the ultimate outcome of the cases, the timing by when the
cases would be concluded and the amount that may be payable remain uncertain at this point in time.

Agenda Item No.8: To issue Securities to the extent of Rs.2,000 Crores
The resolution contained in the agenda of the Notice is an enabling resolution to enable the Company to create, offer, issue and allot equity shares,
GDRs, ADRs, FCCBs, FCDs, NCDs with warrants, OFIs, and / or such other securities convertible into or linked to equity shares and / or any other
instruments and / or combination of instruments as stated in the resolution (the Securities) to an extent of Rs.2,000 Crores.
The Special Resolution also seeks to empower the Board of Directors to undertake a qualified institutional placement with qualified institutional buyers
as defined by SEBI ICDR Regulations. The Board of Directors may at its discretion adopt this mechanism as prescribed under Chapter VIII of the SEBI
ICDR Regulations for raising the funds, without the need for fresh approval from the shareholders.
With a view to meet the financial requirements of the Company, it is proposed to create, offer, issue and allot equity shares, GDRs, ADRs, FCCBs, FCDs,
NCDs with warrants, OFIs, and / or such other securities convertible into or linked to equity shares and / or any other instruments and / or combination
of instruments to the extent of Rs.2,000 Crores in one or another manner and in one or more tranches. Such further issue of such securities would
provide a platform to the Company to meet to its fund requirements and improve the financial leveraging strength of the Company.
Similar enabling resolution was passed by the shareholders at the Twentieth Annual General Meeting held on September 28, 2015. Since the
market conditions have changed since the last approval as also to meet to various regulatory requirements and as a matter of prudent practice, a
fresh resolution is proposed to be passed to create, offer, issue and allot Securities to the extent of Rs.2,000 Crores in one or another manner and in
one or more tranches.
The detailed terms and conditions for the offer will be determined in consultation with the Advisors, Lead Managers, Underwriters and such other
authority or authorities as may be required to be consulted by the Company considering the prevailing market conditions and other relevant factors.
The pricing of the international issue(s), if any, will be free market pricing and may be at a premium or discount to the market price in accordance
with international practices, subject to applicable Indian laws and guidelines. The same would be the case if the Board of Directors decides to
undertake a qualified institutional placement under Chapter VIII of the SEBI ICDR Regulations. As the pricing of the offering cannot be decided
except at a later stage, it is not possible to state the price or the exact number of Securities or shares to be issued. For reasons aforesaid, an
enabling resolution is therefore proposed to be passed to give adequate flexibility and discretion to the Board to finalise the terms of the issue. The
Securities issued pursuant to the offering(s) would be listed on the Indian stock exchanges and / or international stock exchange(s) and may be
represented by Securities or other Financial Instruments outside India.
The Special Resolution seeks to give the Board the powers to issue Securities in one or more tranche or tranches, at such time or times, at such
price or prices and to such person(s) including institutions, incorporated bodies and / or individuals or otherwise as the Board may in its absolute
discretion deem fit.
The consent of the shareholders is being sought pursuant to the provisions of Section 42, 62 and other applicable provisions, if any, of the
Companies Act, 2013 and the Rules made thereunder; Chapter VIII of the SEBI ICDR Regulations and in terms of the provisions of the Securities and
Exchange Board of India (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015.
The Board believes that the issue of Securities is in the interest of the Company and therefore recommends passing of the Special Resolution for
issue of Securities. In light of above, you are requested to accord your approval to the Special Resolution as set out at Agenda Item No.8 of the
accompanying Notice.
Agenda Item No.9: To adopt a new set of regulations of the Articles of Association
In terms of the shareholders agreement dated February 13, 2015 entered into between the Company, the Promoters of the Company and Investor
Group being Dilip Shanghvi Family & Associates, it would be necessary to amend the existing set of regulations of the Articles of Association of the
Company to bring them in conformity with the shareholders agreement.
Further, in terms of proviso to Section 149(1) of the Companies Act, 2013, a company may appoint more than 15 (Fifteen) directors after passing a
special resolution. It is also proposed to increase the maximum number of directors a company can appoint from 12 (Twelve) to 16 (Sixteen).
In terms of the provisions of Section 14 of the Companies Act, 2013 read with Rules made thereunder, a company may, by special resolution, alter
its Articles of Association or adopt a new set of regulations of the Articles of Association after obtaining the approval of the shareholders.

Other Information:
(1)
Reasons for loss / inadequate profits, if any:

The Company has since inception shown a gradual and consistent increase in revenue and profits till financial year 2007-08. The
profitability declined in the financial year 2008-09 and thereafter since the financial year 2009-10 till financial year 2014-15, the
Company incurred losses mainly due to decrease in sales volume due to prevailing uncertain economic environment and liquidity
shortage due to delay in timely realisation of certain receivables from the customers, increase in cost due to change in market mix
and adverse business conditions, foreign exchange loss, lower absorption of fixed overheads, higher finance charges and provision
for diminution in investments in subsidiaries. The global wind industry was facing challenges due to ensuing credit crisis resulting
in lack of availability of finances for new projects. There was a slowdown resulting in reduced order execution, increase in working
capital, liquidity constraints and overcapacity across the sector. This challenging environment resulted in a significant reduction in
new orders for the Company thereby impacting its profitability for past few years.
However, during the financial year 2015-16, the Company focused on profitability by ramping up volumes and exercising better
control over fixed cost. The Company has significantly reduced its net working capital, optimized the debt maturity profile and
maintained strong liquidity position throughout the year which resulted in turnaround of the Company.
(2)
Steps taken / proposed to be taken for improvement:

Over the past few years especially during the years of losses, the Company has taken various initiatives as under to de-lever its
balance sheet and solidify a long-term sustainable capital structure which resulted in turnaround of the Company:
The Company has been taking various steps to reduce costs and improve efficiencies to make its operations more profitable.
In December 2012, the Company along with its selected subsidiaries had made a reference to the Corporate Debt
Restructuring (CDR) Cell for restructuring the Companys debts through CDR Mechanism. After considering the proposal,
the final restructuring package was approved by CDR Empowered Group (CDR EG) on December 31, 2012 and
communicated to the Company vide Letter of Approval dated January 23, 2013. The CDR Proposal included a two years
moratorium on principal and term-debt interest payments; an approximately three per cent reduction in interest rates; six
months moratorium on working capital interest; conversion of approximately Rs.1,500 Crores (two years interest payment
during moratorium) into equity / equity linked instruments to bring stronger financial stability and a ten-year door-to-door
back-ended repayment plan. The CDR Proposal also included an enhancement of working capital facilities, allowing the
Company to accelerate the execution of its strong order book.
(3)
In July 2014, the Company had restructured its FCCBs in such manner that 100% of the USD 200,000,000 zero coupon
convertible bonds due October 2012, USD 20,796,000 7.5% convertible bonds due October 2012 and USD 90,000,000 zero
coupon convertible bonds due July 2014 and approximately 83% of the USD 175,000,000 5% convertible bonds due April
2016 were substituted with USD 546,916,000 step up convertible bonds due 2019; while approximately USD 28.8 million of
the USD 175,000,000 5% convertible bonds due April 2016 were remaining outstanding which were subsequently repaid in
full in April 2016.
In January 2015, a binding agreement was signed with Centerbridge Partners LP, USA for sale of 100% stake of Senvion SE, a
step down wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The sale transaction got concluded in April 2015 which enabled the
Company to raise approximately Rs.7,000 Crores in cash, a substantial portion of which was used for debt reduction.
In May 2015, Dilip Shanghvi Family & Associates came in as financial investors and invested in equity worth Rs.1,800 Crore;
The Company decided to embark further in the renewable sector by venturing into the solar space and has won bids for 515
MW solar power projects across four states, namely, Telangana, Maharashtra, Rajasthan and Jharkhand, out of which power
purchase agreements for 340 MW have been signed.
Expected increase in productivity and profits in measurable terms:

CY15 witnessed the highest investment in renewables globally at US$ 329 Bn, registering a growth of 4% Y-o-Y with Asia Pacific
region leading the pack. During the year, wind and solar added 64 GW and 57 GW respectively. Various international agencies
highlight climate change, energy security, better accessibility to energy and increasing cost competitiveness of renewables to be
the key growth drivers for the global wind industry. The recent extension of PTC for a period of five years, is likely to translate into a
4% CAGR over 2015-2020 (as per MAKE) for the USA wind market. In addition to this, Indias wind market is expected to grow at
over 14% CAGR over FY15-22. This growth will be driven by Government of Indias target to achieve an installed capacity of 175 GW
for renewables over the next six years 60 GW wind and 100 GW solar.
Suzlons concept to commissioning business model coupled with its presence across the value chain and Pan-India, positions it
well to capitalise on this huge growth opportunity. Suzlon has been the market leader in India with ~36% of the cumulative
installations being run on Suzlon turbines today. The Company has managed to maintain its lead over its peers due to its ability to
continuously innovate and roll out technologically improved turbines. The latest offering of 120 hybrid tower and 111m rotor dia
enables the company to unlock growth potential in newer markets. With focus on technology and a clear road map for launching
newer products insulates the Company from both competitive pressure and changing policy landscape. Suzlon is well equipped,
both in terms of manufacturing capacity and on-the-ground team to cater to demand in India and overseas. Incrementally the
Companys recent diversification into solar will add to the bottomline without any major capex and opex. This entry into solar, has
truly transformed Suzlon into a Renewable Energy Player from a Wind Turbine manufacturer.
A copy of the draft agreement to be entered into between the Company and Mr. Vinod R.Tanti, the Wholetime Director & Chief Operating
Officer is available for inspection at the Companys Registered Office and Corporate Office between 2.00 p.m. and 5.00 p.m. on all working
