A. INTERNAL RISK FACTORS i). Risks related to the Company 1. There is one winding up petition filed against our Company by RGR Transport Private Limited, u/s 434 of

the Companies Act, 1956, in the Hon’ble High Court of Delhi.

M/s RGR Transport Private Limited (“RGR”) has filed one winding up petition against our company in the Hon’ble High Court of Delhi vide Petition No.419/1998 alleging that an amount of Rs.3,63,660/- (Rs.4,85,944 along with taxes) was outstanding from our Company and that we despite admission of the claim and repeated reminders from RGR, have failed to make the payment. The case is presently pending for adjudication. We can be asked to pay the amount claimed by M/s RGR Transport Pvt. Ltd in its petition i.e. Rs 4,85,944/- During the course of proceedings the Hon’ble High Court of Delhi, by way of interim measure directed our Company to deposit a sum of Rs 2,11,232/- in the court, which we have complied with.

2. There is a litigation involving Labour Laws filed against our Company in the Labour Court – IV,

Karkardooma Courts, New Delhi.

The Government of Delhi has made a reference to the Labour Court in a industrial dispute concerning our Company and a driver namely Mr. Sat Dev, who has claimed that he was in service of our Company from the period 05.12.1993 to 18.12.1996 and that his services were illegally terminated. He has claimed reinstatement of services with back wages from our Company. An ex-parte award has been issued against our Company by the Labour Court on 10.01.2002, directing us to reinstate the driver with past benefits. Against this order an application on behalf of our Company under Order 9 Rule 7 was filed for setting aside the ex-parte award on the ground that our Company never received notice from the Hon’ble Labour Court and also that the driver was never in the employment of our Company. The Hon’ble Labour Court allowed the said application of our Company on the condition that we shall deposit 100% of the awarded amount and subject to the payment of Rs. 15,000/- to the workman driver. Our company filed a writ petition against the order of the Hon’ble Labour Court, in the Delhi High Court requesting for being allowed to furnish a Bank Guarantee for the awarded amount instead of the 100% deposit. The Hon’ble Delhi High Court allowed the request of our Company and accordingly a bank guarantee for Rs.1,95,629/- was furnished to the Labour Court through Bank of Maharashtra, South Extension Part-1, New Delhi. Further, an amount of Rs 15,000/- as cost was also paid to the workman in compliance with the order of the Hon’ble Labour Court as cost. The dispute is still pending adjudication.

3. There is one dispute pending regarding settlement of Accounts with one of the shareholder/erstwhile director

of our company.

In late 1996, there developed some differences between two groups of Directors of our Company- one group (Group A) comprising of Mr. Radhey K. Gupta, Mr. Prem Chand and Mr. Sushil Gupta, while the other group (Group B) comprising of Mr. Sudesh Behal, Mr. Sunirmol Ghosh and Mr. Gajendra S. Panwar. In November 1996, it was decided to separate the various businesses carried on by the two groups and a resolution to this effect was passed by the Board of Directors of our Company in its meeting held on 2nd November 1996. Both the groups reached a settlement and signed a MOU to that effect on 02.11.1996 referring to the respective valuations for the different business operated by the groups and the separation of business among the two groups. Any matter not mentioned in the MOU was agreed to be referred to the Arbitrators named in the resolution namely Mr. Bharat Bhushan, Mr. Suresh Vyas and Mr. R.K. Pathak. The Arbitrators were supposed to amicably settle any differences between the two groups and their award was agreed to be final and biding on all the directors.

The contentious issues pertaining to various business of both the groups were referred to the Arbitrators for resolution. When all conciliation proceeding failed, the Arbitration proceedings were initiated in September 1997. The Company (Group B) on 22nd August 2003 filed a statement of claim of Rs. 68,42,965/- against Group A after deducting an amount of Rs 5,54,021/- payable to Group A. In its reply to the statement of claim of Group B, Group A denied its liability to pay the amount claimed. Instead, Group A filed a counter claim stating therein that a sum of Rs. 53.98 Crores (which comprised of claim amount of Rs.15.34 Crores and interest @15%p.a. on the claim amount from 1995-96 onwards amounting to Rs.38.64 Crores), is due and recoverable from Group B. Group B has refuted all claims/counter claims raised by group A. The Arbitral Tribunal after observing non-cooperation between the groups and also on the ground that the parties are not serious dissolved the Arbitral Tribunal on June 22, 2005. Thereafter, none of the parties have taken further action to resolve the differences with regard to finalization of accounts. No arbitration or other proceedings have been launched by either group against the other. As of date no legal proceedings either before an Arbitral Tribunal or a court of law arising out of or related to the MOU stated above are pending adjudication.

It is pertinent to mention here that the financials of our Company continue to reflect the assets handed over to Group A as per the settlement dated 2nd November 1996. The management is in the process of writing off these assets since these are no longer in possession of control of the Company. The value of the assets as on 31.03.2006, after providing for depreciation is Rs. 13,00,810/-

ii). Risks related to the business 4. We have group companies/firms which have activities similar to those carried out by our Company. There

may be conflict of interest between business carried by us and our group companies/firms. For details of our group companies/firms please refer to page no. 119 of this Draft Red Herring Prospectus.

Management Perception: We have 8 group companies and one partnership firm who have activities similar to those carried out by our company. Out of these 4 companies (Indo Asia Tours & Travels, Holiday Mall.Com Pvt. Ltd, Indo Asia Hotels Pvt. Ltd. and Coorg Hotels Pvt. Ltd.) are non- operative and have not carried on any business activity since inception. Further one group company, Transasia Travelnet has only income from lease, which is not our main activity. The business of another group Company Indo Asia International Ltd. has already been transferred to our company as part of group reorganization and consolidation. Carnival Hotels is mainly into marketing and management of hotels which is not exactly competitive to our business. Heritage Inn Pvt. Ltd. is owning hotel at Jaisalmer where we neither own nor currently propose to acquire new hotel. ‘Hotel Hatty’, the partnership firm has a hotel in Coorg where we propose to take over a resort property on long term lease. The clientele for hotels and resorts are different. Hence there is no conflict of interest between business carried on by our group company and that by us.

x

5. Our Sundry debtors include an amount of Rs.1 Crore outstanding from our clients for more than 3 years. The

same has not been provided for in the Audited Financial statements prepared for these years.

Management Perception: The amounts are outstanding from some of our principal agents abroad (about 70% of the total outstanding) and balance from one local party in India, pending some reconciliation of accounts. Our company is in the process of completing the reconciliation and recovering the said receivables.

6. We have Contingent liability of Rs.33.06 Lacs as on February 28, 2006, which is not provided for in the

Audited financial statements prepared as on that date.

We have contingent liability of Rs.33.06 Lacs as on February 28, 2006, which is not provided for in the Audited financial statements prepared as on that date. This includes Rs.7.5 Lacs Bank Guarantees executed favouring various hotels for room bookings in the normal course of business. Further bank guarantees amounting to Rs.25.56 Lacs have been executed by our company in favour of Cutoms and others for import of vehicles at concessional duties under EPCG.

7. We have obligation to safeguard the business interest of the overseas principal agents and any sub-

performance/non-performance on our part could result into high retentions and refunds, which may affect the profitability of our company.

We operate through a network of agents spread across the globe. We arrange for travel, accommodation, sightseeing etc. for the clients booking through these overseas agents. We have a obligation towards our principal agent to safeguard their business interest. Any sub-performance/non-performance on our part could result into high retentions and refunds, which may affect the profitability of our company. Thus proper monitoring of execution of our business obligation, maintenance of backup support in case of any breakdown in the system etc. is important.

Management Perception: We have been in the tourism industry for the last 18 years. Over the years we have developed good business relationships with some of the leading tour operators abroad like GeBeCo – Germany, Djoser – Holland, Insight Reisen – Switzerland and Joe Far Reisen – Austria. We have been providing services to these tour operators for the last 9 years. We have been able to maintain good quality systems of work execution in the past.

8. We are largely dependant on our business associates, both in India and abroad for future travel bookings. Any

failure on their part to honour commitments may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and operations.

Management Perception: We select our business associates carefully after examining their background, credibility, capability and ability to deliver quality and timely service. We work towards developing long term good relationship with our business associates, both in India and abroad to enable them to deliver according to our requirement.

9. We do not have escalation clauses in our agreements with our associates/intermediaries and consequently

during period of rising prices or any adverse change in tariffs by our business associates/intermediaries, we may not be able to pass price increases to our customers, which could harm our operational results and financial condition.

Management Perception: It is normal practice in the Travel and Tourism Industry to fix tariffs in advance for a calendar year. However, it is customary in our industry not to change the tariffs once offered.

xi

10. Attracting and retaining talented professionals is key to our business growth. Any inability on our part to attract and retain talented professionals or key managerial personnel may adversely affect our business and results of operations.

Management Perception: We have been successful in retaining our key Managerial Persons in the past. We encourage regular training, self development and professional work atmosphere to help our employees deliver the best.

11. We face risk relating to foreign exchange fluctuation as currently major part of our revenue come from foreign Inbound tourists visiting India.

We currently derive a majority of our revenue from Inbound Tourists i.e. foreign tourists coming to India. The payment is made in foreign currency. We do not have a risk management system to hedge the risk of foreign exchange fluctuations. Thus, any adverse fluctuation in the exchange rate between Rupee and other currencies may adversely affect our financial position and results of operations.

12. While we believe that our present facilities are in compliance with applicable laws and regulations. Any

changes in future may adversely affect working of the company. If we are not able to renew or maintain our statutory and regulatory permits and approvals required to operate our business it may have a material adverse effect on our business.

Management Perception: In the past, we have complied with the applicable laws and regulations, relevant to our business and propose to do the same in the future.

13. Our registered office at New Delhi and our branch offices at Bangalore, Chennai, Goa and Kolkata are on

leased premises.

Management Perception: The registered office of our Company is on premises leased from our promoters Mr. Sunirmol Ghosh and Mr. Sudesh Behal. Further, our branch offices at Bangalore and Chennai are owned by group Company/Promoters/ Promoter group. We do not see difficulty in renewing these lease. Our branch offices at Goa and Kolkata are on lease from outsiders. Our company is proposing to establish self owned Branch Offices in Goa and Kolkata which is part of the current expansion project. This would replace the above lease arrangement.

iii). Risks related to the expansion project 14. The funds requirements and funding plans for our expansion project are as per our own estimates and have

not been appraised by any bank/financial institution. The deployment of fund in the expansion plan is entirely at our discretion and the same will not be monitored by any independent agency.

Management Perception: Our Directors and Key Managerial Personnel have implemented various projects successfully in the past. Under their supervision our company has seen excellent growth in operations and won various awards and distinctions in its field. Hence, we do not foresee any difficulty in completing our expansion project and meeting implementation schedule.

15. Our expansion project, which we propose to finance out of the current Public Issue, involves taking on lease

properties owned by our promoters, their partnership firms.

As part of our expansion project, we propose to take a 3 Star Resort Property at Coorg (Karnataka) on long term lease from a partnership of which our promoters Mr. Sunirmol Ghosh and Mr. Sudesh Behal are the only partners. Our promoter would be interested to the extent of One time lease deposit of Rs.168.10 Lacs payable in respect of this property and subsequent lease rentals payable by our Company.

xii

iv). Other Incidental Risks 16. We have not registered our brand i.e. ‘Indo Asia’ and we do not have a registered trademark.

We have not yet registered the brand ‘Indo Asia’ in our name and do not have a registered trademark. This subjects us to the risk of imitation and loss of revenue owing to sub-standard services being rendered by others under our brand name.

Management Perception: We have already made an application for registration of our trademark with the Trade Mark Registry, Government of India at New Delhi.

17. Our Term loan with TFCI has certain restrictive covenants, which may affect the rights of equity

shareholders.

In respect to Term Loan agreement entered into by our Company with TFCI, we are bound by certain restrictive covenants regarding our capital structure. This includes convertibility option in the hands of TFCI, of the outstanding amount of debt into fully paid up equity shares of our company, in the event of our default in repayment of three consecutive instalments. The outstanding amount of TFCI as on February 28, 2006 is Rs. 80.18 Lacs. Pursuant to the aforesaid covenants, we have obtained NOC from TFCI with regard to the current issue.

18. We enjoy 5% interest subsidy on the Term Loan availed from Tourism Finance Corporation of India (TFCI). Failure to comply with the conditions of the Term Loan agreement entered into with TFCI shall make us ineligible for the said interest subsidy.

Management Perception: We are currently availing 5% interest subsidy from Department of Tourism in respect of Term Loan from TFCI. We have been regularly complying with the conditions of the Term Loan agreement with TFCI.

19. Some of our group/associate companies have incurred losses in recent fiscal periods.

Some of our group/associate companies have incurred losses as per their financial statements for the last three fiscal years ended March 31, 2005. The details of these losses are set out in the table below:

(Rs. In Lacs) Years Group/Associate Company

2004-05 2003-04 2002-03 Indo Asia International Private Limited - - (4.01) Carnival Hotel & Resorts Private Limited (1.35) - (2.14) Heritage Inn Private Limited - - (31.80)

20. Although we maintain key man insurance for some of our Directors, the loss of any of these Directors may

adversely affect our business and results of operations.

Our insurance policies consist of a comprehensive coverage for risks relating to physical loss or damage. In addition, we have obtained separate insurance coverage for personnel related risks, motor vehicle risks and loss of movable assets risks. For details of our insurance policies see the section titled “Our Business – Insurance” on page 52 of this Draft Red Herring Prospectus. While we believe that the insurance coverage we maintain would reasonably be adequate to cover all normal risks associated with the operation of our business, there can be no

xiii

assurance that any claim under the insurance policies maintained by us will be honoured fully, in part or on time. To the extent that we suffer loss or damage that is not covered by insurance or exceeds our insurance coverage, or the insurance policy covering such risk is not honoured, our results of operations and cash flow may be adversely affected.

21. Members of our Promoter group will continue to retain majority control in our Company after the Issue, which

will allow them to influence the outcome of matters submitted to shareholders for approval. Upon completion of the Issue, members of our Promoter group will beneficially own approximately [ ]% of our post-Issue equity share capital. As a result, the Promoter group will have the ability to exercise influence over all matters requiring shareholders’ approval, including the election of Directors and approval of significant corporate transactions. As a consequence of its post-issue shareholding, the promoter group will also have the ability to influence the outcome of any shareholder action or approval requiring a majority vote, except where they are required by applicable laws to abstain from voting. Such a concentration of ownership may also have the effect of delaying, preventing or deterring a change in control.

B. EXTERNAL RISK FACTOR

1. Any slow down of economy of the countries from where we expect our customers for inbound tourism may have

a negative effect on the spending power of these consumers and consequently reducing their spend on travel. This may have adverse impact on the export earnings and results of operations.

2. Any change in Government policies, acts of war or geographical and social turmoil in countries of preference to Outbound Tourists may adversely effect the growth potential of our Outbound Tourist and consequently affect our operations, increase our cost and negatively effect our profitability.

3. Any slowdown in the growth of Indian economy could adversely affect the business of the Company, including future financial performance, shareholders’ funds and ability to implement strategy and the price of Company’s equity shares. Indian Economy performed satisfactory during the year 2004-05 with a GDP growth rate of 6.9%. This growth momentum has been very optimistic for the first half of 2005-06 with the GDP growth at around 8.1%.

4. Any significant change in the Government’s economic liberalization and deregulation policies could disrupt our business and adversely affect the financial performance of our Company.

The Government of India has traditionally exercised and continues to exercise a dominant influence over many aspects of the economy. Its economic policies had and could continue to have a significant effect on public & private sector entities, including our Company. Any significant change in the Government’s policies or any political instability in India could adversely affect the business and economic conditions in India and could also adversely affect the business, future financial performance and the price of our Company’s Equity Shares.

5. Central and State Governments in India have introduced various schemes to boost tourism. Any withdrawal of such schemes may affect our working.

There are certain incentives and concessions granted or provided by the Government of India or the applicable state governments that are currently being enjoyed by the hotel industry. There is no guarantee that such incentives or concessions will continue or will not be withdrawn by the Government of India or the applicable state governments in the future

xiv

6. The price of our Equity Shares may be volatile.

8. Certain factors beyond the control of our Company like terrorist attacks, Civil unrest, droughts, floods,

earthquakes, war etc. or any other acts of violence involving India and other countries can adversely affect our Company and financial markets, where the Equity Shares of our Company will be traded.

Certain events that are beyond our control such as the recent tsunami or seismically generated sea waves capable of considerable destruction on December 26, 2004 and terrorist attacks such as the ones that occurred in New York and Washington, D.C. on September 11, 2001 and New Delhi on December 13, 2001.

SECTION III – INTRODUCTION SUMMARY This is only a summary and does not contain all information that one should consider before investing in the equity shares offered by the Company. Investors should read the entire Draft Red Herring Prospectus, including the information on the section titled ‘Risk Factors’ beginning from page no. ix and the section titled ‘Financial Statements’ and related notes beginning from page no. 87 of this Draft Red Herring Prospectus before deciding to invest in the equity shares offered by our Company. INDUSTRY SUMMARY Travel and Tourism industry is one of the largest industries in the world today, responsible for employing more than 200 million people and generating over 10 per cent of global GDP. It provides a gateway to economic progress particularly in areas having limited options. The diversity of India’s natural and cultural richness provides the basis of a wide range of tourist products and experiences, which embraces business, leisure, culture, adventure, spirituality, eco tourism and many other pursuits. In recent years, India has emerged as a destination for natural and eco tourism and adventure tourism. Our country is becoming as one of the fastest growing tourist destinations in the world. Even with the present volumes of international tourist traffic, tourism has already emerged as an important segment of our country’s economy. Our country received around 3.91 million visitors in 2005 while the outbound travel was estimated at 7 million visitors in 2005. According to Department of Tourism, in the first four calendar months of 2006, the number of foreign tourist arrival has been estimated at about 1.6 Million showing an increase of 14.4% over the corresponding period last year. The foreign exchange earnings from tourism stood at Rs.25172 Crs. for the calendar year 2005 as compared to Rs.21603 Crs. in 2004 showing an increase of 16.5%. In the first four calendar months of 2006, these earnings are estimated at Rs. 9919.81 Crs. showing an increase of 16.3% in comparison to same period in the last year. While according to WTTC 2005 Report, the Travel &Tourism demand from the country accounts for a miniscule 0.7 per cent of the global pie, it is viewed as an emerging star in this region and is generating avid interest among investors and service providers viz. airlines and hotels. (Source: Department of Tourism; WTTC 2005 Report) The growth in Tourism in India can be attributed to 3 areas viz. Inbound Tourism, Outbound Tourism and Domestic Tourism. Over the years, the arrival of foreign tourists has grown from about 17,000 in 1951 to 1.68 Million in 1991 and to 3.91 Million in 2005. The Numbers include both business and leisure travelers and people of Indian origin traveling to meet family. Foreign tourism arrivals in India has grown by more than 16% in 2005 over 2004, primarily as a result of economic growth in EU and US, a strong business climate in India and aggressive promotion efforts by the Indian government. The flow of tourists into India has been mainly from USA and UK. They together constitute about 28% of the total number of foreign tourist arrivals in India during 2004. Other countries Sri Lanka, France, Canada, Germany, Japan, Malaysia, Australia and Italy are the other major international markets from which foreign tourists arrive in India. Apart from foreign tourists, the number of domestic tourist visits in India have also grown over the years. Domestic tourist visits have grown at a CAGR of about 14% over the period 1999 to 2004. The number of domestic tourist visits have increased from 66.7 Million in 1991 to 367.6 Million in 2004. The main reason for undertaking domestic trips in India is for Social purpose (e.g. visiting relatives and friends), religious trips and Leisure trips. The share of Uttar Pradesh and Andhra Pradesh, in number of domestic tourist visits is the highest at 25% share each in the total domestic tourist visit, followed by Tamilnadu at 12%, Karnataka at 7% and Rajasthan at 4%. In addition to growth in Inbound and Domestic tourism, the Outbound tourism from our country has also increased steadily over the last 5 years, driven by declining overseas air fares and increasing disposable income. The number of Outbound tourist visits have increased from 1.9 Million in 1991 to 6.2 Million in 2004. According to Business standard dated April 15, 2006 around 7 million people travelled abroad during 2005 (Source: Department of Tourism; Business Standard dt.15.04.2006)

The growth in tourism has been accompanied by the revival of hotel projects, both luxury and two and three-star properties. Till the end of December 2004, there were 1892 hotels with 97770 rooms on the approved list of the Ministry of Tourism. During FY2003, the average occupancy in hotels stood at 54.8%, marginally higher than 53.2% recorded in FY2002. FY2004 saw marked improvement in occupancy with average occupancy rising to 59.7%. The increase in occupancies can be attributed to increase in foreign tourist arrivals and the pickup in the performance of the Indian corporate sector. (Source: ICRA : February 2005) An important highlight of the India tourism during 2005 was an increase of 20.20% witnessed in the foreign exchange earnings in dollar terms. The estimated foreign exchange earnings during the year touched the level of US $ 5730.86 million during 2005 against US $ 4769 million during 2004- a growth of about US $ 960 million in one year (Source-: Business standard 10/01/06). In absolute rupee terms, the increase in foreign exchange earnings during the year was to the tune of Rs. 3570 crores. It was observed that on an average per tourist foreign exchange earnings in India was about US $ 1462 against the estimated world average of US $ 850. Even when the average earnings per tourists are compared with those of the top world tourist generating countries or with countries in India’s neighborhood, it was highest in India with an exception of USA. The high spent in India can be mainly attributed to more number of days spent by a foreign tourist in India compared to other countries besides the visit of high end tourists to India. The government of India has initiated various policy changes in the recent past to boast tourism growth. Which include increased budgetary allocation for tourism at Rs. 830 crores (2006-07) against Rs. 786 crores in the year 2005-06 and Rs. 541 crores in the year 2004-05, removal and reductions in taxes on Travel & Tourism, flexible policy on charters, introduction of open skies for peek tourism season, privatization of Delhi & Mumbai Airports, Divestment in Government Hotels, enhanced participation between public & private sectors. which have helped in providing the required impetus to the growth in Tourism. Some of the other promotional activities undertaken by the government are: (a) Direct approach to the consumers through electronic and print media through the “Incredible India” campaign. (b) Centralised Electronic Media Campaign. (Athiti Dev Bhav) (c) Participation in Trade Fair & Exhibitions (d) Generating tourists Publications (e) Focusing on Growth of Hotel Infrastructure, particularly Budget Hotels. (f) Enhancing connectivity through augmentation of air capacity and improving road infrastructure to major tourist

attractions. (Source: Ministry of Tourism & Culture, Department of Tourism, WTTC: The 2005 Travel & Tourism Economic Research and DOT Annual Report 2004-05 ‘Incredible India’, a multi-pronged promotional campaign launched by the Department of Tourism, India, aims to position India as an up market destination for discerning travelers. It focuses on the diversity of India as a holiday destination ‘with something for everyone’, from beaches to mountains, world heritage sites to cultural fairs and safaris to holistic holidays. The Department of Tourism’s initiatives to provide visitors to ‘Incredible India’ with a world-class experience are bound to continue a gradual increase in India’s market share of global tourism. No wonder the Conde Nest Traveler, a leading International Travel publication has rated India as one of the top ten favorite tourism destinations.

(Source: Department of Tourism; WTTC 2005 Report; Business Standard 15.04.2006) The growth in Tourism in India can be attributed to 3 areas viz.

Foreign tourism arrivals in India has grown by more than 16% in 2005 over 2004, primarily as a result of economic growth in EU and US, a strong business climate in India and aggressive promotion efforts by the Indian government. As the dollar was depreciating against world currencies, the relatively more affordable destinations such as India gained in popularity. The flow of tourists into India has been mainly from USA and UK. They together constitute about 28% of the total number of foreign tourist arrivals in India during 2004. Other countries Sri Lanka, France, Canada, Germany, Japan, Malaysia, Australia and Italy are the other major international markets from which foreign tourists arrive in India.

Source: WTTC :The 2005 Travel & Tourism Economic Research Trend in occupancy Increase in income levels, emergence of a dynamic middle income class and improved infrastructure in terms of domestic air and rail connectivity have led to growth in domestic leisure travel. Simultaneously, domestic business traffic has also grown with general improved corporate profitability and positive business environment in India. The trend in occupancy for hotels in the period FY2000 to FY2004 is plotted in the chart given ahead:

46

During FY2003, the average occupancy stood at 54.8%, marginally higher than 53.2% recorded in FY2002. FY2004 saw marked improvement in occupancy with average occupancy rising to 59.7%. The increase in occupancies can be attributed to increase in foreign tourist arrivals and the pickup in the performance of the Indian corporate sector. (Source: ICRA : February 2005) Tourists inflow in India during 2005 The year 2005 has been a highly successful year so far as tourism in India is concerned. For the third successive year, India witnessed a positive growth in foreign tourist arrivals, reaching a level of 3.91million against 3.37 million during last year. Another important highlight of the India tourism during 2005 was an increase of 20.20% witnessed in the foreign exchange earnings in dollar terms. The estimated foreign exchange earnings during the year touched the level of US $ 5730.86 million during 2005 against US $ 4769 million during 2004- a growth of about US $ 960 million in one year (Source-: Business standard 10/01/06). In absolute rupee terms, the increase in foreign exchange earnings during the year was to the tune of Rs. 3570 crores. It was observed that on an average per tourist foreign exchange earnings in India was about US $ 1462 against the estimated world average of US $ 850. Even when the average earnings per tourists are compared with those of the top world tourist generating countries or with countries in India’s neighborhood, it was highest in India with an exception of USA, as can be seen from the table below: Country Average per tourist estimated foreign exchange earnings (US $) France 555 Spain 792 USA 1698 Italy 993 China 640 (Source: DOT Annual Report 2004-05) The high spent in India can be mainly attributed to more number of days spent by a foreign tourist in India compared to other countries besides the visit of high end tourists to India.

Gaining importance of E- Tourism Travel industry and the Internet make a prosperous pair. Online sales of airline tickets, car rentals and hotel reservations make the travel industry one of the strongest e-commerce markets in existence today. The airline industry represents the largest segment of the e-travel industry. In the year 2000 alone, the US online air tickets sale soared above $ 7 billion. US online hotel and motel sales were well above $ 2 billion. The biggest factor stimulating online travel sales is the Web Sites designed to meet consumer needs. Further, there is synergy among online travel industry components like Car rental, airline, tour packages and hotel online reservations which will feed off each other. According to the UNCTAD “Information Economy Report 2005”, in developed markets such as the US, around 90% of tourism sales are made online through airlines and travel agencies. UNCTAD points to an interesting fact that since most information on tourism opportunities in India for foreign inbound tourists is generated, updated and marketed online by major international service providers based in developed countries, these providers end up absorbing as much as 40% of the total profits in the tourism industry.

(xiii) Any other service/product provider subject to our acceptance. Our Online Travel Portal would provide a boast to our Tour Operation business and Hotel business. Currently, there are over 100,000 hotel rooms in India; a majority of them are not networked with any GDS (Global Distribution System) or any online booking tool. Indiaholidaymall.com intends to radically change the ‘supply side’ of the

58

equation at the hotel level by bringing hotels online (using a hybrid approach of connectivity and merchant model) and simultaneously revolutionizing the way leisure travel is bought, thereby changing the ‘demand side’ by offering real-time booking ability at reasonable prices to customers. The same can be repeated for other service providers like a transport supplier or even an airline. Business enquiries, which would be generated through online portal will be followed by personal/ telephonic conversation and or meetings to convert the enquiry into business for different segment. As our Company has been in the business of providing Travel Services for more than 18 years, the online travel portal would act as natural extension of our business and help in increasing our scale of operations and revenue. Travel Support Station Further, we also propose to establish a Travel Support Station at Gurgaon (Haryana), which would cater to the variety of customer queries and needs on 24 X 7 basis. The Travel Support station would be equipped with Toll Free telephone lines (512 Kbps IPCL line) from four countries viz. US, Canada, UK and India. It would be having 36 CSU terminals with the Central Reservation System (CRS) software, a Chat software, a Customer Relationship Management (CRM) Software, and Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) Software. The Travel Support Station would help us in providing value added service/ assistance to our customers/business associates on a 24 hr. basis. Our Company proposes to develop an intricate and specialized human resources recruiting, training and monitoring process for Support Station staff. We also intend to gradually use the infrastructure to provide services to various airlines, hotels and other tour operators for generating additional business revenue. The launch of our Online Travel portal ‘www.indiaholidaymall.com’ & Travel Support Station would give thrust to the existing Inbound, Outbound and domestic tourism business by way of increased customer access and service, better international recognition and direct deals with airlines. 2. Establishment of Overseas Sales & Marketing Offices In order to avail and exploit the business opportunity that exists from Inbound and Outbound tourists, our Company proposes to establish two overseas Sales and Marketing offices, one each at London (U.K) and at New Jersey (USA) to expand business operations to and from these two destinations. In the past, these two countries have constituted for a major portion of revenue from foreign tourists in India. The establishment of sales and Marketing offices in these countries would be used to develop business relationship with local tour operators and travel industry fraternity within these countries. It would help us in reducing the cost of intermediaries and help in brand building of our company in these markets. This would help us in gaining business from Inbound Tourists in India originating from these countries and also Outbound Indian Tourists traveling to these destinations. 3. Establishment of Holliday and Travel Solution Stations (HTSS) In India Our company proposes to establish Holliday and Travel Solution Stations across India to avail the huge business opportunity that exists in the Tourism Sector. We propose to establish these Stations initially at 10 locations, namely, Mumbai, Goa, Ahmedabad, Hyderabad, Indore, Jaipur, Amritsar, Lucknow, Ranchi and Kolkata. The HTSS will be managed by experienced travel industry professionals, to be employed by our Company, who would market our company’s packaged tours to domestic and outbound Indian travellers. The Travel Support Stations will help in setting up a network of sub-agents in their respective regions. This would help us in increasing our business operations through customized service to our clients. The outbound tourism in India has been witnessing significant growth on account of rising income levels. Further, many Indian companies are holding their Trade / Business conferences outside India and large number of Software professionals from IT sector companies are going abroad every year for on-site software development. We expect to

59

target these prospective clients through these domestic HTSS to provide tailor made and Fixed Departure tour packages. Further, these HTSS would also market Domestic Tour packages to Indian residents. Our Company would benefit from the knowledge and experience gained over the past few decades to offer quality services to the domestic clients to have a great holiday along with their children and family, just about anywhere in India. We would offer tailor-made package tours for the individuals, group tours with fixed departures to explore different areas of the country and countries in the Indian Sub continent. These HTSS spread across the country will have a standard design, interiors and outside signage public board. All the HTSS are proposed to be inter- linked through latest networking technology providing Real Time Online Holiday and Travel Solution, including a secured payment gateway.

A brand implies high measure of familiarity – a reassuring impression of quality, strength, stability, reliability and overall trustworthiness. With the opening up of the Indian Economy and higher level of competition, customers are being left with several options to choose from. Thus Brand awareness becomes important so that Customers can choose the right brand to suit their needs. A well-known brand gives the customer a mental image of design, services and overall characteristics of a brand. Brand awareness and image is very important in hotel, hospitality and travel industry. Keeping this in view, and to give a thrust to its existing business operations as well as future expansion plans, our Company proposes to make a well-planned Brand Building, Advertisement and Sales Promotion Campaign during next couple of months using electronic & print media and display of sign boards at strategic locations throughout the country. We also propose to promote our services and brand through organizing customers’ meet, seminars & conferences and distributing our product literature and brochures. Similar advertisement and brand promotion exercise is proposed at the time of launching of our proposed Online Travel Portal – ‘Indiaholidaymall.com’ and at the time of launching of domestic and overseas (USA and UK) Sales and Marketing offices.

Results of Operations Income Our Income consists mainly of Income from proving tour & travel services to foreign Inbound tourists visiting India, domestic tourists travelling within India and Indian Outbound tourists travelling abroad. It also includes income from Hotel Sales. We have been providing services to the Inbound tourists for the last 18 years and recently in January 2005 we have commenced Outbound and domestic tour services in our company. Expenses

Transportation Transportation includes the cost we incur in running and maintenance of our fleet of vehicles, Road Tax and state toll taxes and charges paid to other transporters for the transportation services they provide to us. Our coaches are well maintained and we follow our maintenance schedule very strictly. This ensures our vehicle running cost at the minimum. Since, we also take services of other transporters, we normally enters into rate agreements for a calendar year with all the transporters on our panel. This minimizes the risk of fluctuation in the transportation rates during any given period.

In the event of the Issue being over-subscribed, we shall finalise the basis of allotment in consultation with the Designated Stock Exchange. The Executive Director (or any other senior official nominated by them) of the Designated Stock Exchange along with the BRLMs and the Registrar to the Issue shall be responsible for ensuring that the basis of allotment is finalised in a fair and proper manner.

The allotment shall be made in marketable lots, on a proportionate basis as explained below:

Bidders will be categorised according to the number of Equity Shares applied for.

The total number of Equity Shares to be allotted to each category as a whole shall be arrived at on a

proportionate basis, which is the total number of Equity Shares applied for in that category (number of Bidders in the category multiplied by the number of Equity Shares applied for) multiplied by the inverse of the over-subscription ratio.

Number of Equity Shares to be allotted to the successful Bidders will be arrived at on a proportionate basis,

which is total number of Equity Shares applied for by each Bidder in that category multiplied by the inverse of the over-subscription ratio.

In all Bids where the proportionate allotment is less than [•] Equity Shares per Bidder, the allotment shall be

made as follows:

Each successful Bidder shall be allotted a minimum of [•] Equity Shares; and The successful Bidders out of the total Bidders for a category shall be determined by draw of lots in a

manner such that the total number of Equity Shares allotted in that category is equal to the number of Equity Shares calculated in accordance with (b) above.

If the proportionate allotment to a Bidder is a number that is more than [•] but is not a multiple of one (which is

the marketable lot), the number in excess of the multiple of one would be rounded off to the higher multiple of one if that number is 0.5 or higher. If that number is lower than 0.5, it would be rounded off to the lower multiple of one. All Bidders in such categories would be allotted Equity Shares arrived at after such rounding off.

If the Equity Shares allocated on a proportionate basis to any category are more than the Equity Shares allotted to the Bidders in that category, the remaining Equity Shares available for allotment shall be first adjusted against any other category, where the allotted shares are not sufficient for proportionate allotment to the successful Bidders in

177

that category. The balance Equity Shares, if any, remaining after such adjustment will be added to the category comprising Bidders applying for minimum number of Equity Shares.
