The expression "median" means the numerical value separating the higher half of a population from the lower half and the median of a finite list of numbers may be found by arranging all the observations from lower value to highest value and picking the middle one; and if there is an even number of observations, the median shall be average of the middle values.

As of 31 March 2015, the company had 801 permanent employees on its rolls. This number is only in relation the company in India and employees of the subsidiary companies and Associate companies are not included in this figure.
f. Explanation on the relationship between average increase in remuneration and company performance:
The increase in remuneration is guided by the following factors:
i) Company performance in terms of profitability
ii) Individual performance – Achievement of targets / goals
iii) Industry trends / pay-scales based on survey data
iv) Salary rationalization and fitment based on role and relevance
v) Cost of living / Location of work
The compensation is expected to ensure availability and sustainability of suitable manpower. It is also expected to ensure retention and continued value which enables the company to perform better. The company performance in terms of revenue and profits assumes a larger significance at the Key functional levels and lesser at operating levels. The scope and responsibility of the function will determine the weightage to each of these components. The compensation is intended to ensure global competitiveness. The intent of the management is to use a combination of stock options to align senior employee compensation with shareholder value.

Sr. No. | Directors | Designation | Amount Paid | No. of Stock Options granted in the year | Ratio of Remune- ration to Revenues | Ratio of Remune- ration to Net Profit |

h. Variations in the market capitalization of the company, price earning ratio as at the closing date of the current financial year and percentage increase over decrease in the market quotations of the shares of the company in comparison to the rate at which the company came out with the last public offer in case of listed companies.

Crores) | Earnings per share (Diluted) (Rs.) | P/E Ratio | Closing Market Price on NSE (Rs.) | Last public offer price (On formation of the company) on 18 May 2000 (Rs.) | % increase in market price over last public offer (18 May 2000) | % increase in YoY Market price |
31 March 2015 | 215.46 | 10.47 | 19.05 | 199.50 | 10 | 1895% | 70.08% |
31 March 2014 | 121.82 | 9.62 | 12.19 | 117.30 | 10 | 1073% | 102.24% |
i. Average percentile increase already made in the salaries of employees other than the managerial personnel in the last financial year and its comparison with the percentile increase in the managerial remuneration and justification thereof and point out if there are any exceptional circumstances for increase in the managerial remuneration The average increase in salaries is 7% for non-managerial personnel.
There is no increase in the percentile computation for exhecutive directors. In case of non-executive directors the average increase is 24.94%. This is chiefly due to increase in the sitting fee for meetings during the year and also the increase in the number of meetings of the Non-executive Board members during the year. All board members taken together, the increase in managerial remuneration is 1.41% which is significantly lower that the increase in salaries for non-managerial persons.
j. The key parameters for any variable component of remuneration availed by the directors;
During the year under review, the executive director’s compensation did not witness any material change. The compensation for executive directors are term based. The Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director’s compensation has an incentive plan based on achievement of target revenues and profits by the company. In case of the other directors, the compensation comprises (i) Sitting Fee for meetings attended and (ii) Commission based on the net profits of the company. The increases in the current year are due to upward revision of the sitting fee from Rs. 20,000 to Rs. 50,000 per meeting from June 2014. The commission for the year is around 1.7% of profits as against 2% in the prior year. In absolute terms while the commission payment is lower for the year, due to increase in the sitting fee and the number of meetings held, the overall increases in respect of the other directors is higher than the prior year.
k. The ratio of the remuneration of the highest paid director to that of the employees who are not directors but receive remuneration in excess of the highest paid director during the year.
The company has no employee who is not a director and receives remuneration in excess of the highest paid director during the year. Hence, there is no statistical information to be provided in this regard by the company.
l. Affirmation that the remuneration is as per the remuneration policy of the company.
The company has a policy on the appointment and remuneration of directors and key managerial personnel which is addressed by the Nomination and Remuneration Committee of the company. The Human Resource Management generally aligns the recruitment plans for the strategic growth of the company. The nomination and remuneration policy is provided pursuant to Section 178(4) of the Companies Act and Clause 49(IV )(B)(4) of the Listing Agreement with the Stock Exchange on the Website of the company.
