“Section 5.06 Fees and Charges of Depositary. The Company, the Holders, the Beneficial Owners, and persons depositing Shares or surrendering GDSs for cancellation and withdrawal of Deposited Securities shall be required to pay to the Depositary the Depositary’s fees and related charges identified as payable by them respectively in the Fee Schedule attached hereto as Exhibit D. All fees and charges so payable may, at any time and from time to time, be changed by agreement between the Depositary and the Company, but, in the case of fees and charges payable by Holders and Beneficial Owners, only in the manner contemplated in Section 6.01. The Depositary shall provide, without charge, a copy of its latest fee schedule to anyone upon request.

Depositary Fees payable upon (i) deposit of Shares against issuance of GDSs and (ii) surrender of GDSs for cancellation and withdrawal of Deposited Securities will be charged by the Depositary to the person to whom the GDSs so issued are delivered (in the case of GDS issuances) and to the person who delivers the GDSs for cancellation to the Depositary (in the case of GDS cancellations). In the case of GDSs issued by the Depositary into DTC or presented to the Depositary via DTC, the GDS issuance and cancellation fees will be payable to the Depositary by the DTC Participant(s) receiving the GDSs from the Depositary or the DTC Participant(s) surrendering the GDSs to the Depositary for cancellation, as the case may be, on behalf of the Beneficial Owner(s) and will be charged by the DTC Participant(s) to the account(s) of the applicable Beneficial Owner(s) in accordance with the procedures and practices of the DTC participant(s) as in effect at the time. Depositary fees in respect of distributions and the Depositary services fee are payable to the Depositary by Holders as of the applicable GDS record date established by the Depositary. In the case of distributions of cash, the amount of the applicable Depositary fees is deducted by the Depositary from the funds being distributed. In the case of distributions other than cash and the Depositary service fee, the Depositary will invoice the applicable Holders as of the GDS record date established by the Depositary. For GDSs held through DTC, the Depositary fees for distributions other than cash and the Depositary service fee are charged by the Depositary to the DTC Participants in accordance with the procedures and practices prescribed by DTC from time to time and the DTC Participants in turn charge the amount of such fees to the Beneficial Owners for whom they hold GDSs.

The Depositary may remit to the Company all or a portion of the Depositary fees charged for the reimbursement of certain expenses incurred by the Company in respect of the GDR program established pursuant to the Deposit Agreement upon such terms and conditions as the Company and the Depositary may agree from time to time. The Company shall pay to the Depositary such fees and charges and reimburse the Depositary for such out-of-pocket expenses as the Depositary and the Company may agree from time to time. Responsibility for payment of such charges and reimbursements may from time to time be changed by agreement between the Company and the Depositary. Unless otherwise agreed, the Depositary shall present its statement for such expenses and fees or charges to the Company once every three months. The charges and expenses of the Custodian are for the sole account of the Depositary.

The right of the Depositary to receive payment of fees, charges and expenses as provided above shall survive the termination of the Deposit Agreement. As to any Depositary, upon the resignation or removal of such Depositary as described in Section 5.05, such right shall extend for those fees, charges and expenses incurred prior to the effectiveness of such resignation or removal.”

SECTION 2.05. Rule 12g3-2(b) Amendment. To reflect the recent amendments to Rule 12g3-2(b) by the Commission under the Exchange Act, the Deposit Agreement is hereby amended as of the Effective Date by deleting Section 4.11 in its entirety, and inserting the following in its stead:

As a condition precedent to the execution and delivery, registration of transfer, split-up, combination, surrender of any GDR for the purpose of withdrawal of any Deposited Securities or adjustment to the Depositary's records in order to reflect deposits of Shares or such transfer, surrender or withdrawal, the Depositary or the Custodian may require (i) payment from the depositor of Shares or the presenter of a GDR or the presenter of written instructions, of a sum sufficient to reimburse it for any tax or other governmental charge and any stock transfer or registration fee with respect thereto (including any such tax or charge and fee with respect to Shares being deposited or withdrawn) and payment of any applicable fees as provided in paragraph (8) of this GDR, (ii) the production of proof satisfactory to it as to the identity and genuineness of any signature, including but not limited to a signature guarantee in accordance with industry practice, and (iii) compliance with any laws or governmental regulations relating to depositary receipts in general or to the withdrawal of Deposited Securities.

(FORM OF REVERSE OF GDR)

SUMMARY OF CERTAIN ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS

OF THE DEPOSIT AGREEMENT

(13) Dividends and Distributions; Rights. Whenever the Custodian or the Depositary receives any cash dividend or other cash distribution in respect of any Deposited Securities, the Depositary shall (if at the time of the receipt thereof any amounts received in a foreign currency can in the judgment of the Depositary be converted on a reasonable basis into dollars which can, at the time of receipt thereof be transferred to the United States and distributed to the Holders entitled thereto) cause such dividend or distribution to be converted into dollars and distribute promptly the amount thus received (less any reasonable and customary expenses incurred by the Depositary in converting such foreign currency) to the Holders entitled thereto in proportion to the number of GDSs representing such Deposited Securities held by them respectively, after deduction or upon payment of the fees and expenses of the Depositary; provided, however, that in the event that the Company, the Custodian or the Depositary shall be required to withhold and does withhold from any cash dividend or other cash distribution in respect of any Deposited Securities an amount on account of taxes or other governmental charges, the amount distributed to the Holders in respect of the GDSs representing such Deposited Securities shall be reduced accordingly. If at any time the Depositary determines that in its judgment any foreign currency received by it is not convertible on a reasonable basis into dollars distributable to the Holders entitled thereto, or may not be so convertible for all of the Holders entitled thereto, the Depositary may in its discretion make such conversion, if any, and distribution in dollars to the extent permissible to the Holders for whom such conversion and distribution is practicable and may distribute the balance of the foreign currency (or any appropriate document evidencing the right to receive such foreign currency) received and not so convertible by the Depositary to, or hold such balance for the respective accounts of, the Holders for whom such conversion and distribution is not practicable.

Whenever the Custodian shall receive any distribution other than cash, Shares or rights upon any Deposited Securities, the Depositary shall cause the securities or property received by the Custodian to be distributed to the Holders entitled thereto, after deduction or upon payment of the fees and expenses of the Depositary, in proportion to the number of GDSs representing such Deposited Securities held by them respectively, in any manner that the Depositary may deem equitable and practicable for accomplishing such distribution; provided, however, that if in the opinion of the Depositary it cannot cause such securities or property to be distributed or such distribution cannot be made proportionately among the Holders of Physical GDSs entitled thereto, or if for any other reason the Depositary deems such distribution not to be feasible, the Depositary may adopt such method as it may deem equitable and practicable for the purpose of effecting such distribution, including the sale (at public or private sale) of the securities or property thus received, or any part thereof, and the net proceeds of any such sale shall be distributed by the Depositary to the Holders entitled thereto as in the case of a distribution received in cash.

A-11

If any distribution upon any Deposited Securities consists of a dividend in, or free distribution of, Shares, the Depositary may, with the Company's approval, and shall, if the Company shall so request, either (i) distribute to the Holders entitled thereto, in proportion to the number of GDSs representing such Deposited Securities held by them respectively, additional GDRs for an aggregate number of GDSs representing the number of Shares received as such dividend or free distribution, or (ii) reflect on the records of the Depositary such increase in the aggregate number of GDSs representing such Shares, in either case after deduction or upon payment of the fees and expenses of the Depositary; provided, however, that if for any reason the Depositary deems such distribution not to be feasible, the Depositary may adopt such method as it may deem equitable and practicable for the purpose of effecting such distribution, including the sale (at public or private sale) of the Shares thus received, or any part thereof, and the net proceeds of any such sale shall be distributed by the Depositary to the Holders entitled thereto as in the case of a distribution received in cash. In lieu of issuing GDRs for fractional GDSs in any such case, the Depositary shall sell the number of Shares represented by the aggregate of such fractions and distribute (if at the time of receipt thereof such distribution can be made into the United States to the Holders entitled thereto) the net proceeds converted into dollars (if at the time of receipt thereof such amounts may in the judgment of the Depositary be converted on a reasonable basis into dollars), to the holders entitled thereto. If additional GDRs are not so distributed (except pursuant to the preceding sentence), or such change in the records of the Depositary is not made, each GDS shall thenceforth also represent the additional Shares distributed upon the Deposited Securities represented thereby.

A-12

In the event that the Company shall offer or cause to be offered to the holders of any Deposited Securities any rights to subscribe for additional Shares or any rights of any other nature, the Depositary, after consultation with the Company, shall have discretion as to the procedure to be followed in making such rights available to the Holders entitled thereto, subject to Section 5.09 of the Deposit Agreement, or in disposing of such rights on behalf of such Holders and making the net proceeds available in cash to such Holders or, if by the terms of such rights offering or by reason of applicable law, the Depositary may neither make such rights available to such Holders nor dispose of such rights and make the net proceeds available to such Holders, then the Depositary shall allow the rights to lapse; provided, however, that the Depositary will, if requested by the Company, either (a) make such rights available to all or certain Holders or Beneficial Owners by means of warrants or otherwise, if lawful and feasible, after deduction or upon payment of the fees and expenses of the Depositary, (b) if making such rights available to certain Holders or Beneficial Owners is not lawful or not feasible, or if the rights represented by such warrants or other instruments are not exercised and appear to be about to lapse, make reasonable efforts to sell such rights or warrants or other instruments at public or private sale, at such place or places and upon such terms as the Depositary may deem proper, and after deduction or upon payment of the fees and expenses of the Depositary, allocate the net proceeds of such sales for the account of the Holders otherwise entitled thereto upon an averaged or other practicable basis without regard to any distinctions among such Holders because of exchange restrictions or the date of delivery of any GDR or GDRs, or otherwise or (c) if it is lawful and feasible, the Depositary may, in its discretion, after deduction or upon payment of the fees and expenses of the Depositary, and upon provision of any documents, statements or certificates that it may specify, take such action as is necessary for certain of the rights to be exercised and the securities obtained upon the exercise thereof to be sold under Regulation S or to be resold under Rule 144A, or privately placed with those Holders or Beneficial Owners to whom such sales or resales may be made or with whom such private placement may be made without the rights or the securities to which such rights relate being registered under the Securities Act.

A-13

Notwithstanding the foregoing if, by their terms, any rights offered to the holders of Deposited Securities may be sold or otherwise transferred, the Depositary shall not sell or transfer any such rights offered in respect of the Deposited Securities without first offering such rights to the Company for its designees to purchase in accordance with the Right of First Refusal (as defined below), and further the Depositary shall not make such rights available to any Holders or Beneficial Owners as described in clause (a) above except on terms which require compliance with the Right of First Refusal with respect to such rights. As used herein, the term "Right of First Refusal" shall mean the right of first refusal procedures set forth in the form of Right of First Refusal Agreement appearing in Exhibit C-2 to the Deposit Agreement, provided that for the purposes of this provision, the term "undersigned" shall refer to the Depositary, and the term "Offered Shares" shall refer to the rights proposed to be transferred.

(14) Record Dates. Whenever any cash dividend or other cash distribution shall become payable or any distribution other than cash shall be made, or whenever rights shall be issued, with respect to the Deposited Securities, or whenever, for any reason, the Depositary, causes a change in the number of Shares that are represented by each GDS or whenever the Depositary shall receive notice of any meeting of holders of Shares or other Deposited Securities, the Depositary shall fix a record date after consultation with the Company (which shall be as near as practicable to the corresponding record date for such distribution or meeting set by the Company) for the determination of the effectiveness of such change in the number of Shares represented by such GDS or of Holders who shall be entitled to receive such dividend, distribution or rights, or the net proceeds of the sale thereof, or to receive information as to such meeting, subject to the provisions of the Deposit Agreement.

(15) Voting of Deposited Securities.

HOLDERS OF GDRs MAY NOT VOTE THE SHARES OR OTHER DEPOSITED SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THE GDSs EVIDENCED BY SUCH GDRs AND MAY NOT INSTRUCT THE DEPOSITARY AS TO THE VOTING OF SUCH DEPOSITED SECURITIES. IN CERTAIN LIMITED CIRCUMSTANCES, AS SET FORTH IN THE DEPOSIT AGREEMENT, THE DEPOSITARY MAY BE REQUIRED TO EXERCISE THE VOTING RIGHTS IN RESPECT OF THE DEPOSITED SECURITIES AS DIRECTED BY THE COMPANY.

Upon receipt of notice of any meeting of holders of Shares or other Deposited Securities, if requested in writing by the Company, the Depositary shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, fix a record date for determining the Holders entitled to receive information as to such meeting, and shall mail to the Holders of record a notice which shall contain: (a) such information as is contained in such notice of meeting and (b) a statement that the Holders of GDRs may not vote the Shares or other Deposited Securities represented by their GDSs.

A-14

(16) Changes Affecting Deposited Securities. Upon any change in par value, split-up, consolidation or any other reclassification of Deposited Securities, or upon any recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation of the Company or sale of assets by the Company, any securities which shall be received by the Depositary or the Custodian in exchange for or in conversion of or in respect of Deposited Securities shall be treated as new Deposited Securities, and the GDSs shall thenceforth represent the new Deposited Securities so received in exchange or conversion, unless additional or new GDSs are delivered pursuant to the following sentence. In any such case the Depositary may, with the Company's approval, and shall, at the Company's request, execute and deliver additional GDRs to Holders of Physical GDSs and make appropriate adjustments in its records on behalf of Holders of GDSs in the Master GDR, as in the case of a stock dividend, bonus issue or other free distribution in Shares, or call for the surrender of outstanding GDRs to be exchanged for new GDRs specifically describing such new Deposited Securities. Immediately upon the occurrence of any such change, conversion or exchange covered by this Section in respect of the Deposited Securities, the Depositary shall give notice thereof in writing, at the Company's expense, to all Holders.

(17) Reports; Inspection of Transfer Books. The Depositary shall make available for inspection by Holders at its Principal New York Office and Principal London Office and at the office of each Custodian copies of the Deposit Agreement, any notices, reports or communications, including any proxy soliciting materials, received from the Company which are both (a) received by the Depositary or a Custodian or the nominee of either, as the holder of the Deposited Securities and (b) made generally available to the holders of such Deposited Securities by the Company. The Depositary shall also send to Holders copies of such notices, reports and communications when furnished by the Company to the Depositary as provided in the Deposit Agreement.

The Depositary shall keep books at its Principal New York Office for the registration of GDRs and transfers of GDRs which at all reasonable times shall be open for inspection by Holders and the Company, provided that such inspection shall not to the Depositary's knowledge be for the purpose of communicating with Holders in the interest of a business or object other than the business of the Company or a matter related to the Deposit Agreement or the GDRs. After consultation with the Company, the Depositary may close the transfer books, at any time or from time to time, when deemed expedient by it in connection with the performance of its duties under the Deposit Agreement.

(18) Withholding. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Deposit Agreement, in the event that the Depositary determines that any distribution of property (including Shares, rights to subscribe therefor and other securities) is subject to any tax or governmental charges which the Depositary is obligated to withhold, the Depositary may dispose of all or a portion of such property (including Shares, rights to subscribe therefor and other securities) in such amounts and in such manner as the Depositary deems necessary and practicable to pay such taxes or governmental charges, including by public or private sale, and the Depositary shall distribute the net proceeds of any such sale or the balance of any such property after deduction of such taxes or governmental charges to the Holders entitled thereto.

(19) Liability of the Company and the Depositary. Neither the Depositary nor the Company shall incur any liability to any Holder or Beneficial Owner, if by reason of any provision of any present or future law of the United States, India or any other country or jurisdiction, or of any other governmental authority, or by reason of any provision, present or future, of the Memorandum or Articles of Association of the Company, or by reason of any act of God or war or other circumstances beyond its control, the Depositary, the Custodian or the Company is prevented, delayed or forbidden from doing or performing any act or thing which by the terms of the Deposit Agreement it is provided shall be done or performed; nor shall the Depositary, the Custodian or the Company incur any liability to any Holder or Beneficial Owner by reason of any non-performance or delay, caused as aforesaid, in performance of any act or thing which by the terms of the Deposit Agreement it is provided shall or may be done or performed, or by reason of any exercise of, or failure to exercise, any discretion provided for in the Deposit Agreement.

A-15

Neither the Company nor the Depositary assumes any obligation nor shall either of them be subject to any liability under the Deposit Agreement to Holders or Beneficial Owners, except that each of them agrees to use its best judgment and to act in good faith in the performance of its obligations set forth in the Deposit Agreement. The Depositary and the Company undertake to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in the Deposit Agreement, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into the Deposit Agreement against the Depositary or the Company.

Neither the Depositary nor the Company shall be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any action, suit or other proceeding in respect of any Deposited Securities or in respect of the GDRs, which in its opinion may involve it in expense or liability, unless indemnity satisfactory to it against all expense and liability be furnished as often as may be required, and no Custodian shall be under any obligation whatsoever with respect to such proceedings, the responsibility of the Custodian being solely to the Depositary.

Neither the Depositary nor the Company shall be liable for any action or inaction by it in reliance upon the advice of or information from legal counsel, accountants, any person presenting Shares for deposit, any Holder or Beneficial Owner, or any other person believed by it in good faith to be competent to give such advice or information. The Depositary and its agents and the Company and its agents may rely and shall be protected in acting upon any written notice, request, direction or other document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties. Subject to the provisions of the Deposit Agreement, the Depositary may own and deal in any class of securities of the Company and its affiliates and in GDSs.

The Company agrees to indemnify the Depositary and each Custodian against, and hold each of them harmless from, any liability or expense which may arise out of acts performed or omitted, including but not limited to any delivery by the Depositary on behalf of the Company of information regarding the Company, in accordance with the provisions of the Deposit Agreement and of the GDRs, as the same may be amended, modified or supplemented from time to time, in any such case, (i) by either the Depositary or any Custodian, except for any liability or expense arising out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of either of them, or (ii) by the Company or any of its agents, except to the extent that such liability or expense arises out of information relating to the Depositary or to the Custodian, as the case may be, furnished in a signed writing to the Company by the Depositary expressly for use in any document relating to the GDRs evidencing the GDSs.

The Depositary agrees to indemnify the Company and hold it harmless from any liability or expense which may arise out of acts performed or omitted by the Depositary or its Custodian or any of their agents due to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of either the Depositary or the Custodian or any of their agents.

A-16

(20) Resignation and Removal of Depositary; Substitution of Custodian.

The Depositary may at any time be removed by the Company by 30 days' written notice of such removal which shall become effective upon the appointment of a successor depositary and its acceptance of such appointment as provided in the Deposit Agreement.

The Depositary may, after consultation with the Company, appoint a substitute or an additional custodian and the term "Custodian" shall also refer to such substitute or additional custodian.

(21) Amendment of Deposit Agreement and GDRs. Prior to the Transfer Date, neither the GDRs nor the Deposit Agreement may be amended in a manner which is adverse to the Holders or Beneficial Owners, except as required by law. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, the GDRs and the Deposit Agreement may at any time be amended by agreement between the Company and the Depositary. Any amendment which imposes or increases any fees or charges (other than the fees of the Depositary for the issuance, execution and delivery of GDRs and taxes and other governmental charges), or which otherwise prejudices any substantial existing right of Holders, will not take effect as to outstanding GDRs until the expiration of 30 days after the notice of such amendment has been given to the Holders of outstanding GDRs. Every Holder and Beneficial Owner at the time any amendment becomes effective will be deemed, by continuing to hold its GDRs or to own any beneficial interest therein, to consent and agree to such amendment and to be bound by the Deposit Agreement as amended thereby. In no event shall any amendment impair the right of the Holders of any GDR to surrender such GDR and receive therefor the Deposited Securities represented thereby or instruments of transfer therefor, except in order to comply with mandatory provisions of applicable law.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Deposit Agreement may be amended at any time (whether or not materially adverse to the Holders or Beneficial Owners) by agreement between the Company and the Depositary if such amendment is, in their view, necessary or desirable to make tax benefits available to Holders or Beneficial Owners or to take into account new rules adopted by the NASD or DTC, in each case as described under "Possible Amendments to the Deposit Agreement" in the Final Offering Circular dated November 25, 1992, which section is attached as Exhibit E to the Deposit Agreement.

(22) Termination of Deposit Agreement. Before the Transfer Date, the Deposit Agreement may not be terminated except as required by law. On and after the Transfer Date, the Depositary shall, whenever so directed by the Company, terminate the Deposit Agreement by mailing notice of such termination to the Holders of all GDRs then outstanding at least 60 days prior to the date fixed in such notice for such termination. On and after the Transfer Date, the Depositary may likewise terminate this Agreement if at any time 90 days after the Depositary shall have delivered to the Company a written notice of its election to resign, a successor depositary shall not have been appointed and accepted its appointment as provided in the Deposit Agreement.

A-17

If any GDRs shall remain outstanding after the date of termination, the Depositary thereafter shall discontinue the registration of transfers of GDRs, shall suspend the distribution of dividends to the Holders thereof, shall not accept deposits of Shares (and shall instruct each Custodian to act accordingly), and shall not give any further notices or perform any further acts under the Deposit Agreement, except that the Depositary shall continue to collect dividends and other distributions pertaining to Deposited Securities and shall, as directed by the Company, either (i) sell property and rights and convert Deposited Securities into cash and deliver the net proceeds of such sales or conversions as provided in the Deposit Agreement or (ii) deliver Deposited Securities, in each case together with any dividends or other distributions received with respect thereto, in exchange for GDRs surrendered to the Depositary. At any time after the expiration of six months from the date of termination, the Depositary may sell the Deposited Securities then held hereunder and may thereafter hold the net proceeds of any such sale, together with any other cash then held by it hereunder, without liability for interest, for the pro rata benefit of the Holders of GDRs which have not theretofore been surrendered. After making such sale, the Depositary shall be discharged from all obligations under the Deposit Agreement, except to account for such net proceeds and other cash.
