CORPORATE GOVERNANCE REPORT
1. THE COMPANY’S CORPORATE GOVERNANCE PHILOSOPHY
Kirloskar Multimedia Limited defines Corporate Governance as a systemic process by which companies are
directed and controlled to enhance their wealth generating capacity. It is a combination of voluntary practices
adopted by a Company interwoven with laws, regulations, procedures and disclosures.
It is aimed in the long run to maximize shareholder and employee value as well as to attract, retain and
motivate employees.
Corporate Governance is, in a larger context, to be experienced as a movement throughout the Company
and not merely as an exercise or as a means to an end in complying with statutory requirements, but as
an end by itself, which transcends beyond mere disclosures and statutory compliances.
The Company has initiated the process of Corporate Governance in compliance with Clause 49 of the Listing
Agreement with The Stock Exchange, Mumbai and Clause 51 of the Listing Agreement with the Bangalore
Stock Exchange Ltd. A sincere attempt has been made to comply with Corporate Governance code and in

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS
Industry Structure
The multimedia products industry that the Company operates in a subset of the consumer products industry.
End consumers are reached through various channels including retail, direct marketing, affinity groups, the
internet, direct-order catalogs, etc. The Company’s products are additionally meant for the educational
market consisiting of educators, schools and learning institutions. Distribution structures are well defined
and are mature, consisting of channel specific whole-salers, distributors and retailers. The market opportunity
for the Company’s products are world-wide, and each market territory has its own unique differences for
marketing and distribution. Products to be sold to the European Union, for instance, require language
conversion and localisation for each different country. Product awareness is supported by public relations
activities that result in reviews in consumer magazines and trade journals. Purchase is typically an impulse
buy determined by attractiveness of point-of-purchase display which in most instances is the packaging
itself. Prominence in display in the retail environment is also a significant factor in product success.
Competition is intense.
Opportunities and Threats
A growing international consumer multimedia products market with new technology delivery platforms
provides opportunities for new and expanding models for the development and delivery of interactive
multimedia content. While this represents an ongoing, expanding opportunity with the possibility of significant
up-sides, the publishing model is high risk as substantial investment and lead-time is necessary for new
content development combined with brand development, marketing and distribution. Even so, product
success is dependent on consumer acceptance assuming adequate distribution exists. Established distribution
channels are extremely difficult to penetrate. Ongoing R&D, investment in product development, and
constant product technological upgradation is a necessity. Product development necessitates a large pool
of creative and technical talent supported by adequate marketing and distribution. Being adequately
capitalised in addition to having definitive and dependable product revenue streams is a prerequisite for a
healthy cash-flow that can support a publishing endeavour. The Company’s track record in building such a
publishing business is indicative of the several challenges, difficulties and risks that exist in the market.
Segment Wise Performance
The Company had no operating income from its multimedia publishing business.
Outlook
The Company has not had any past success in its efforts to build a successful multimedia products publishing
business. It has been the experience of the Company that to take on the risks posed in this industry requires
a fundamental financial base that the Company has lacked, as product development costs lead revenue
streams which have been uncertain. The Company has not had any commercial operations during the year
due to it’s financial situation. The Company’s products face technological obsolescence in the absence of
upgradation and no longer meet the latest standards for technology delivery. It is unlikely that the Company
can revive it’s multimedia products publishing business without making a completely new beginning with
new investment leading to existing product upgradation and new products, coupled with sizable investment
in marketing and distribution, which in view of the present financial condition is unlikely.
Risks and Concerns
The Company is in a dire situation consequent to it’s poor financial position. It is unlikely that the Company’s
multimedia product publishing business can be revived. The Company at present lacks the financial means
to pursue any new alternative opportunity within the multimedia industry. There are significant liabilities
that the Company still carries. Consequently, it is unlikely that the Company can be revived in its present
form.
Internal Control Systems and their Adequacy
There are reasonable internal procedures commensurate with the size of the Company and the nature of
its business with regard to purchase of plant and machinery, equipment and other assets, and sales.
Financial Performance
The Company’s financial performance has been severely affected by factors beyond its control.
Cautionary Statement
Management discussion and analysis about the Company’s objectives and expectations may be forward
looking statements subject to applicable securities laws and regulations. Actual results could differ materially
from those expressed or implied depending upon demand and supply conditions, changes in government
regulations, economic developments within India and overseas.
