5. The Board of Directors of the Company at its meeting held on July 31, 2024, considered, and
approved the amalgamation of Rujuvalika Investments Limited ("RIL") into and with the
Company, by way of scheme of amalgamation (Scheme). RIL is an investment company having
investments in shares of listed and unlisted body corporates and in mutual funds. It is registered

('NBFC') holding certificate of registration as NBFC. RIL, however, does not have any active
operations as an NBFC.
As part of the Scheme, among other things, equity shares held by the Company in the RIL shall
stand cancelled. No shares of the Company shall be issued, nor any cash payment shall be
made whatsoever by the Company in lieu of cancellation of shares of RIL (being wholly owned

authorities and sanction of the Scheme by the relevant bench of the NCL T.
The amalgamation will ensure simplification of management structure, better administration
and reduction/rationalisation of administrative and operational costs over a period of time and
the elimination of duplication and multiplicity of compliance requirements.
6. Tata Steel Europe Limited ('TSE"), a wholly owned step-down subsidiary of the Company, is
exposed to certain climate related risks which could affect its future cash flow projections. The
cashflow projections include the impact of decarbonisation given that both the TSUK and TSN
businesses within TSE have stated their plans to move away from the current production
process and transition to electric arc furnace based production. Decarbonisation as a whole is
likely to provide significant opportunities to TSE as it is likely to increase the demand for steel
as it is crucial as an infrastructure enabler for all technological transition within the wider
economy (e.g., wind power, hydrogen, electric vehicles, nuclear plants etc.) and compares
favourably to other materials considering the life cycle emissions of the material. The
technology transition and investments are dependent on national and international policies and
would also be driven by the Government decisions in the country of operation. Management's
assessment is that generally, these potential carbon reduction related costs would be borne by
the society, either through higher steel prices or through public spending or subsidies.
On September 15, 2023, Tata Steel UK Limited ("TSUK") which forms the main part of the UK
business, announced a joint agreement with the UK Government on a proposal to invest in
state-of-the-art electric arc furnace ('EAF') steelmaking at the Port Talbot site with a capital cost
of £1.25 billion inclusive of a grant from the UK Government of up to £500 million.
Consequent to the announcement, TSUK during FY24 had assessed and concluded that it had
created a valid expectation among those affected and had accordingly recognised a provision
of 2,492 crore towards restructuring and closure costs including redundancy and employee
termination costs. TSUK had also recognised 2,601 crore towards impairment of Heavy End
assets which were not expected to be used for any significant period beyond March 31, 2024.
These provisions were also accordingly recognised in the consolidatedstatement

During the quarter ended September 30, 2024, TSUK had re-assessed the estimate of
restructuring provisions in connection with the closure of the heavy end assets and associated
transformation activities and recognised an additional provision of 834.21 crore (for the half
year ended September 30, 2024: 3211.46 crore) which was included within Exceptional item
8(f) in the consolidated financial results.
During the quarter ended December 31, 2024, there is no change in the amount of restructuring
provisions recognised earlier in connection with the closure of the heavy end assets and
associated transformation activities for TSUK.
The Grant Funding Agreement (GFA) for the decarbonisation proposal was signed with the UK
Government on September 11, 2024. With the UK Government funding available under the
GFA and a commitment to infuse equity into TSUK through T Steel Global Holdings Pte. Ltd.
('TSGH"), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, TSUK now has the certainty that the
funding is available for its decarbonisation proposal from both the UK Government and the
Company. Accordingly, it was concluded during the quarter ended September 30, 2024 that
there does not exist any material uncertainty relating to going concern assessment of TSUK
and that TSUK has access to adequate liquidity to fund its operations.
With respect to Tata Steel Netherland ("TSN") operations which forms main part of the MLE
business, discussions with the government on the proposed decarbonisation roadmap have
been initiated. The transition plan considers that the policy environment in the Netherlands and
EU is supportive to the European steel industry and a level playing field would be achieved by,
either one or a combination of: a) Dutch Policy developments, b) Convergence with EU on
(fiscal) climate measures, enabling EU steel players to pass on costs and c) Tailor made
support mechanisms. In relation to the likely investments required for the decarbonisation of
TSN operations driven by regulatory changes in the Europe and the Netherlands, inter-alia, the
scenarios consider that the Dutch Government will provide a certain level of financial support
to execute the decarbonisation strategy, which are under discussion between the Company,
TSN and the Dutch Government.
On December 19, 2024, the Environment Agency (EA) of the Netherlands imposed two orders
under penalty ("Orders") on Tata Steel ljmuiden (TSIJ), a wholly owned subsidiary of TSN, for
a maximum amount of -&239 crore stating non-compliance of emission thresholds for
operations of its Coke and Gas Plants (CGP 1 and CGP 2) with a period of 8 weeks for TSIJ to
reduce the emissions within the threshold limits.
In addition, the EA had also sent a Notice on non-compliances regarding certain state of
maintenance of its CGP2 plant. Further to the Notice, it has given TSIJ a period of 12 months
to remedy the non-compliances, failing which, the permit for operating CGP 2 can get revoked.
TSIJ is currently working on various actions in connection with the Orders and Notices received.
On the former, TSIJ has initiated actions related to verification of the data on emissions and
evaluating possible options for a technical solution. It is also evaluating the option to file an
Injunctive relief with the Administrative Court in the Netherlands to seek a suspension of the
impugned Orders, which for the later has already been filed with the Court. Further, it shall also
file objections against the Orders and Notice for non-compliance with the appropriate authority
in due course.
As a part of the decarbonisation roadmap for the steel operations in the Netherlands,
discussions are also ongoing between Tata Steel Limited, Tata Steel Netherlands and the
Government authorities on a composite plan to address the reduction of carbon emissions and
environmental concerns of the local community and authorities.
Considering the various actions which TSIJ plans to pursue within the remediation period, the
outcome of which is currently uncertain, and given the ongoing discussions to arrive at a
comprehensive solution for Co2 emissions and environmental concerns with the Dutch
Government, as aforesaid, the Company believes that the Orders and the Notice are unlikely
to lead to a closure of the Coke and Gas Plants and pose an impediment to its current business
operations.

Based on the above, the latest available cash flow and liquidity forecasts and other available
measures, MLE business is expected to have adequate liquidity to meet its future business
requirements.
On such basis, the financial statements of TSE have accordingly been prepared on a going
concern basis. The Group has assessed its ability to meet any liquidity requirements at TSE, if
required, and concluded that its cashflow and liquidity position remains adequate.
The recoverable value of investments held in T Steel Holdings Pte. Ltd. ("TSH"), a wholly owned
subsidiary of the Company is dependent on the operational and financial performance of TSE,
Tata Steel Minerals Canada ("TSMC") and net assets of other underlying businesses.
The recoverable value of investments held by the Company in T Steel Holdings Pte. Ltd., which
in turn holds investments in TSE, has accordingly been primarily assessed based on fair value
less cost to sell (FVLCTS) models for the TSUK and TSN businesses, which, inter-alia,
considers impact of switching the heavy end and other relevant assets to a more "Green Steel"
capex base.
If any of the key assumptions in the aforesaid models change, there is a risk that the headroom
as per the model would reduce and a reduction in the headroom could lead to a possible
impairment of the carrying value of investments held in TSH. The Company, however, believes
that the key assumptions represent the most likely impact of the decarbonisation proposal at
this point in time. Going forward, the key assumptions would be kept under review for changes,
if any, based on the progress of discussions with the Government and other regulators on the
decarbonisation plan.
7. The State of Odisha enacted the "Orissa Rural Infrastructure and Socio-Economic
Development Act, 2004 (ORISED Act)" with effect from February 01, 2005, levying tax on
mineral bearing land.
The Company during FY06 had received various demands amounting to 129 crore pertaining
to the period FY05 and FY06 in respect of its mines in the State of Odisha. The Company had
filed a writ petition in the Hon'ble High Court of Orissa challenging the constitutional validity of
the Act on the ground that the State of Odisha lacks the legislative authority to enact ORISED
Act, 2004 and therefore the same is unconstitutional. The Hon'ble High Court of Orissa in
December 2005 held that the State does not have the legislative authority to levy tax on
minerals. The State of Odisha had challenged the Judgment of the Hon'ble High Court before
the Hon'ble Supreme Court. Subsequently, the matter relating to legislative authority of the
States to tax minerals, was referred to the Constitution Bench of the Hon'ble Supreme Court.
The Judgement of the Constitution Bench of the Hon'ble Supreme Court was pronounced on
July 25, 2024. The Hon'ble Supreme Court ruled that the Mines and Minerals (Development &
Regulation) Act will not denude the States of the power to levy tax on mineral rights. The
Constitution Bench further directed the listing of the pending matters before an appropriate
Regular Bench of the Hon'ble Supreme Court. This was followed by an Order dated August 14,
2024 of the Constitution Bench of the Hon'ble Supreme Court, directing/clarifying certain
matters in respect of its Judgement dated July 25, 2024.
Notwithstanding the recent Judgement dated July 25, 2024 and August 14, 2024 of the
Constitution Bench of the Hon'ble Supreme Court laying down the principle of law, pending
hearing of the Appeal filed by the State of Odisha before the appropriate Regular Bench of the
Hon'ble Supreme Court against the Judgement and Order of the Hon'ble High Court of Orissa
which had declared the ORISED Act, 2004 to be unconstitutional and inoperative, it is
unclear/uncertain as regards the form and manner in which the ORISED Act, 2004 may get
enacted once the decision of the Hon'ble High Court of Orissa is set aside by the Hon'ble
Supreme Court, which currently is pending.
The Company has filed a Curative petition before the Hon'ble Supreme Court of India on
January 17, 2025, invoking extraordinary jurisdiction of the Hon'ble Supreme Court of India
under Article 142 of the Constitution of India read with order XLVIII, Rule 1 of the Supreme
Court Rules, 2013 in respect of the Order dated September 24, 2024 passed by the
Constitutional Bench of the Hon'ble Supreme Court of India dismissing the e tition
against judgment dated July 25, 2024 and August 14, 2024, which is p �"\s�� cc 4-

Accordingly, the Company would be able to assess the financial impact, if any, of the possible
obligation only on the occurrence or non-occurrence of uncertain future events, related to the
legal course, not entirely within the control of the Company, and the consequent actions of the
Union and the State Government.
While the Company had previously reported and disclosed an estimated contingent liability
towards possible obligation under the aforesaid ORISED matter, as on date, based on the
above uncertainty, along with an opinion from senior legal counsel obtained by the Company,
there is no present/legal obligation in respect of the levy related to the ORISED Act, 2004 and
its financial impact along with the possibility of outflow at this stage is unlikely.
The Company has, accordingly, not recognised any provision in its standalone and
consolidated financial results.
8. During the nine months ended December 31, 2024, the entire outstanding amount of loan to T
Steel Holdings Pte. Ltd. amounting to US$ 564.75 million has been converted into equity based
on the fair value of shares of T Steel Holdings Pte. Ltd. Accordingly, the carrying value of such
loans amounting to 84,709.17 crore as on June 28, 2024 has been recorded as investment in
equity shares.
9. Other expenses for the quarter and nine months ended December 31, 2024 is after considering
the impact of 81,412.89 crore and 81,860.39 crore respectively (quarter ended September 30,
2024: 3447.50 crore; quarter ended December 31, 2023: Nil; nine months ended December
31, 2023: Nil; financial year ended March 31, 2024: Nil) towards provision for claims made in
earlier periods no longer required written back.
10. The consolidated financial results have been subjected to limited review and the standalone
financial results have been audited by the statutory auditors.
