Re:  Audit of US GAAP Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company and Changes in Principal Certifying Accountants

We refer to the Form 6-K filed by the Company on 9 June 2011.

In the said 6-K, the Company had, inter alia, mentioned that:

“Further to the above, the Board of Directors, on the recommendation of Audit Committee, has appointed S. R. Batliboi & Associates as Principal Certifying Accountants to perform audit of consolidated financials of the Company as per US GAAP for the year ending 31 December 2011 including the quarterly limited reviews.”

Please note that the name of newly appointed Principal Certifying Accountants was inadvertently mentioned as S. R. Batliboi & Associates.  In fact, the Board of Directors, on the recommendation of Audit Committee, has appointed Ernst & Young (and not S.R. Batliboi & Associates) as Principal Certifying Accountants to perform audit of consolidated financials of the Company as per US GAAP for the year ending 31 December 2011 including the quarterly limited reviews.

Accordingly, the correct paragraph should read as under:

“Further to the above, the Board of Directors, on the recommendation of Audit Committee, has appointed Ernst & Young as Principal Certifying Accountants to perform audit of consolidated financials of the Company as per US GAAP for the year ending 31 December 2011 including the quarterly limited reviews.”

Except the above, there is no change in the other matter mentioned in the said Form 6-K.
