ITC LIMITED

ITC was incorporated on August 24, 1910 under the name of 'Imperial Tobacco
Company of India Limited'. Its beginnings were humble. A leased office on Radha
Bazar Lane, Kolkata, was the centre of the Company's existence. The Company
celebrated its 16th birthday on August 24, 1926, by purchasing the plot of land
situated at 37, Chowringhee, (now renamed J.L. Nehru Road) Kolkata, for the sum
of Rs 310,000. This decision of the Company was historic in more ways than one. It
was to mark the beginning of a long and eventful journey into India's future. The
Company's headquarter building, 'Virginia House', which came up on that plot of
land two years later, would go on to become one of Kolkata's most venerated
landmarks. The Company's ownership progressively Indianised, and the name of the
Company was changed to I.T.C. Limited in 1974. In recognition of the Company's
multi-business portfolio encompassing a wide range of businesses - Cigarettes &
Tobacco, Hotels, Information Technology, Packaging, Paperboards & Specialty
Papers, Agri-Exports, Foods, Lifestyle Retailing and Greeting Gifting & Stationery -
the full stops in the Company's name were removed effective September 18, 2001.
The Company now stands rechristened 'ITC Limited'. Now a turnover of over US $
5 billion and a market capitalisation of over US $ 18 billion. Total Shareholder
Returns, measured in terms of increase in market capitalisation and dividends, grew
at a compound rate of over 24% per annum over the last 5 years. The new FMCG
businesses support the competitiveness, technology upgradation and market reach

RELIANCE ADA GROUP

Reliance Anil Dhirubhai Ambani Group (Reliance ADAG) ranks among India's top
three private sector business houses. The group has a market capitalization of US$
22 billion, net assets in excess of US$ 7 billion, and net worth to the tune of US$ 6
billion. Reliance Anil Dhirubhai Ambani Group has a customer base of over 50
million, the largest in India, and a shareholder base of over 8 million, among the
largest in the world. R-ADAG has a business presence that is spread over 4,500
towns and 300,000 villages in India, and 5 continents across the world.

Reliance Anil Dhirubhai Ambani Group came into existence when the business
empire of the Reliance Group founded by Dhirubhai Ambani was split between his
two sons, Mukesh and Anil. Mukesh Ambani, the elder brother, retained Reliance
Industries Limited (RIL), the flagship company of the Reliance Group. The part of the
empire that was inherited by the younger brother Anil Ambani was christened as
Reliance Anil Dhirubhai Ambani Group. Hence, one can say that the founder of
Reliance ADAG was Dhirubhai Ambani. The interests of the Reliance Anil Dhirubhai
Ambani span communications, financial services, generation, transmission and
distribution of power, infrastructure and entertainment.
Reliance's BIG DTH platform is being launched by publically held group company -
Reliance Communications (RComm Ltd.). Investors - largely the public can gain or
losses depending on the success of the DTH venture.
However, all 20 Reliance TV channels are being launched under privately held
companies - Reliance Big TV Entertainment Pvt. Ltd and Reliance Big TV News Pvt.
Ltd. Both these companies are held by private company - Reliance Entertainment
Pvt Ltd. which has already been valued at Rs 13,035 Crore. It would therefore not be
unreasonable to expect 2 new large public issues from ADAG-Reliance, about a
year after the channels are launched.
Reliance Anil Dhirubhai Ambani Group (ADAG) will invest a whopping sum of Rs
40,000 crore in power sector, cement industry, cargo handling airport and
technical institute in Madhya Pradesh.

pioneer in introducing financial instruments like fully convertible debentures to the
Indian stock markets. Ambani was one of the first entrepreneurs to draw retail

manipulate the levers of a controlled economy to his advantage. Though the
