CHANGES IN REGISTRANT’S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT

     The Company was notified by its existing US GAAP accountants, KPMG (Registered), an Indian partnership, (“KPMG India”) that for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2004, KPMG LLP, a UK limited liability partnership (“KPMG LLP”) would serve as the Company’s US GAAP accountants. The change was made at the request of KPMG India and approved by the Company’s audit committee.

     Under the rules promulgated by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), the change from KPMG India to KPMG LLP for fiscal years ended March 31, 2004 and forward constitutes a change in the registrant’s certifying accountants. This change, however, is likely to be temporary, with KPMG India expected to be re-appointed as the Company’s US GAAP accountants once it has successfully completed registration with the U.S. Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (the “PCAOB”).

     The reports of KPMG India on the Company’s financial statements for each of the fiscal years ended March 31, 2002 and 2003 did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or modified due to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.

     During fiscal years ended March 31, 2002 and 2003 and through the date of change of accountants, there were no disagreements with KPMG India on any matter of accounting principle or practice, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of KPMG India, would have caused them to make reference to the subject matter in connection with their reports on our financial statements for such years. There were no reportable events as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

     The Company provided KPMG India with a copy of the foregoing disclosures. Attached as Exhibit 99.1 is a copy of the letter of KPMG India, dated April 16, 2004, stating its agreement with such statements.
