Annexure A

Information in accordance with the Companies (Disclosure of Particulars in the Report of Board of

Directors) Rules, 1988, and forming part of the Directors Report for the year ended 31st March

2012.

.Efforts in brief made towards technology absorption, adaptation and innovation Design of components and systems including design review process.

Component and sub component level localisation, development and testing of parts for

existing and new models

Capabilities enhanced in component and vehicle evaluation, benchmarking and design

optimisation

Capabilities being further enhanced in area of alternative fuels.

Value Engineering (VE) at the time of new model

Design to maximise cost benefit

Capability enhanced in the development of new

Technologies at affordable prices.

Benefits derived as a result of the above efforts

The Company was able to achieve high level of localisation in all the models resulting in reduction of

cost. The Company was also able to offer new technologies benefiting its customers. The Company

has also worked significantly in the areas of fuel efficiency and weight reduction

Technology inducted

The Company has been a pioneer in offering latest technologies at affordable prices to its customers.

As a market leader, the Company intends to keep this momentum in future. Some of the steps taken

in this direction are as under:

The all new powerful and light weight K14 engine was introduced in Ertiga. The engine is an

extension of the successful K-series line-up.

New Swift and Swift DZire were made equipped with detent pin technology for improving

the shift comfort. This has helped in enhancing the customer satisfaction

New Swift, Swift DZire and Ertiga were made equipped with new generation Anti-lock

Braking System (ABS) which is the smallest and lightest system in the Companys line-up.

New technology Engine Drag Control (EDC) was introduced which proves the technological

superiority of the Companys vehicles.The EDC prevents locking of driving wheels due to


5/27

engine braking, thereby ensuring the drivability and steerability while braking in slippery

conditions

New Swift and DZire were made equipped with the latest 3rd generation wheel bearing

units. It brings a reduction of over 20 per cent in weight over first generation unit with

additional advantages of controlled pre-loading, enhanced rigidity and improved bearing

performance Fuel efficiency of the vehicles being the prime focus, Variable Value Timing (VVT) was

introduced in gasoline versions of new Swift, new DZire and Ertiga to improve the fuel

efficiency and performance. Other measures like valve train friction reduction in K12 and

K14 engines and introduction of low viscosity engine oils in diesel engines have been taken

to improve the fuel efficiency.

The Company has always been the forerunner in implementing new environment friendly

measures. New Swift and Swift DZire are compliant with On Board Diagonosis (OBD) -II

Regulations and thus are much ahead of the requisite time of implementation of these

regulations i.e. April 2013.

Board of directors

In keeping with the commitment of the management for the principle of integrity and

transparency in business operations for good corporate governance, the Companys policy is to

have an appropriate blend of executive and independent directors to maintain the

independence of the Board, and to separate the Board functions of governance andmanagement.

Composition

As on 31 March 2012, the Board of Bajaj Auto consisted of sixteen directors, of whom four

directors were executive. Nine out of twelve non-executive directors were independent.

The Board has no institutional nominee directors.

According to clause 49, if the chairman is executive or a promoter, at least one half of the Board

should consist of non-executive, independent directors. As Table 1 below shows, this provision

is met at Bajaj Auto.

Non-executive directors compensation

The Board of Directors at its meeting held on 26 March 2011 had partially revised the directors

remuneration policy with effect from 1 April 2011 and accordingly non-executive directors of

the Company with effect from 1 April 2011 are being paid, in addition to the sitting fee of `

20,000 per meeting for every meeting of the Board and its committees, commission at the rate

of ` 100,000 per meeting of the Board and its committees attended by them, subject to the

overall ceiling of one percent of net profits. In terms of the said approvals given by the Board of

Directors and shareholders, one independent director viz. Nanoo Pamnani will be paid `

1,000,000 as commission for the year 2011-12 in consideration of the services rendered by him

during the year 2011-12 at the request of the management.The company did not have a stock option programme for the non-executive directors during the

year under review.

Board procedures

During 2011-12, the Board of Directors met six times: on 18 May 2011, 14 July 2011,

16 September 2011, 20 October 2011, 19 January 2012 and 27 March 2012. The gap

Criteria of making payments to non-executive directors

Non-executive directors of the Company play a crucial role in the independent functioning of the

Board. They bring in an external perspective to decision-making, and provide leadership and

strategic guidance while maintaining objective judgment. They also oversee corporate

governance framework of the Company.

Non-executive directors

Non-executive directors are paid sitting fees and commission on net profits as separately stated

in this report.


24/27

Executive directors

Executive directors are entitled to superannuation benefits payable in the form of an annuity

from the Life Insurance Corporation of India which forms part of the perquisites allowed to

them. No pension is paid by the Company.

The company has no stock option plans for the directors and hence, it does not form a part of

the remuneration package payable to any executive and/or non-executive director. During the

year under review, none of the directors was paid any performance-linked incentive.

In 2011-12, the Company did not advance any loans to any of the executive and/or non-

executive directors.

Table below gives details of the remuneration paid or payable to directors during 2011-12.

The total remuneration calculated for the above comes out to be Rs. 31,75,60,034.

The Profit After Tax mentioned in the report is Rs. 3004.05 Crore, hence the 11% of the same

comes out to be Rs. 330,44,55,000.


25/27

PAT Rs. 30040500000

11% of PAT Rs. 3304455000

Total Remuneration Rs. 317560034

Total Remuneration < 11% of Annual Profit

Hence, the total remuneration is less than 11% of the total profit for the same financial year and

the company follows the law.

NOTE: The total remuneration is calculated based only for the remunerations of Directors, as

the company nowhere mentions the remunerations for its managers.
