NDTV Networks BV wholly owns NDTV Networks Plc and its underlying subsidiaries NDTV Imagine Limited, NDTV Lifestyle Limited, NDTV Convergence Limited and NDTV Labs Limited and 50% in NGEN Media Services Private Limited. The NDTV Group also includes results of100% (previous period n.a) subsidiary Emerging Markets 24X7 B.V. incorporated as a 50% Dutch joint venture with NNPLC. All these subsidiaries would engage in implementing the new business initiatives to be undertaken by the Company.

During the year, NNPLC has incurred costs amounting to Rs.11.2 Crores in relation to these initiatives including Rs 6.4 Crores reimbursed to NDTV for conceptualisng, setting up and other services rendered in relation to the new businesses and Rs 1.53 Crores relating to the issue of shares to ComVentures (Refer note 2 below). The cost incurred during the quarter was Rs 6 Crores.

NNPLC has raised US $20 Million through Investments by ComVentures V.I., L.P in preferred stock and warrants with an option to purchase preferred stock which would automatically convert to common stock at a specified rate in case NNPLC decides for an Initial Public Offering (IPO) resulting in dilution of Group's stake by not below 4.87% from currently 100%.

Subsequent to the year end NNPLC has entered into a non binding agreement with investment bankers for underwriting subscription of upto US$ 100 million step up coupon convertible bonds due 2012. The interest rate varies progressively from 4% in the first 12 months, 6% between 12 to 24 months to 9% between 24 to 60 months. The bondholders have the option to convert the bonds to equity capital at a conversion ratio that vary depending upon the status of predetermined events, as defined in the agreement, at the time of the conversion. The repayment of the bonds is required to be guaranteed by New Delhi Television Limited. The potential dilution on conversion is likely to be not below 20%.

The Company currently operates primarily in a single segment of television media and accordingly, there is no separate reportable segment.
