The economic environment for the domestic business continued to remain conducive for most part of the year and all major
players in the watch industry witnessed strong growth, which was largely driven by fashion and youth segment and
expansion of the retail footprint. The high inflation rate and rising cost of commodities prices, if not contained, is likely to
adversely impact the consumer sentiment and the overall economic growth environment in the year ahead.
The year 2010-11 has been a year of major transformation, during which, your Company has delivered its highest ever volume,
revenue and profitability performance. Sales Revenue grew by 25% at Rs 174 Crore and Profit before tax grew by 203% at Rs
14 Crore.
The year begun with a leadership change in the management team and the subsequent finalization of your Company’s three
years strategic plan. Under the new leadership, several key initiatives were taken to drive efficiencies across the organization
and also align all stakeholders of the Company with the goals to create a strong sense of vision and focus for the business.
Some of the key marketing initiatives taken were as under;
•
Revamped the product portfolio and introduced new styles with improved aesthetics and at the same time generated a
higher gross margin for the business.
•
Launched New Brands – to target different consumer segments and widen the appeal of the Timex Group Portfolio. The
brands launched this year were;
o
o
o
o
Mark Ecko
Versace
Tarun Tahiliani
Helix
: in the fashion segment
: in Luxury fashion segment
: in the premium women’s segment
: in the fast growing youth segment
•
Partnered with “ICC Cricket World Cup 2011” event as the “Official Product Licensee”
•
Increased media spend with a focus on Television Advertising. A new brand television commercial was developed for
the Timex brand during the year to reinforce the “conversation starters” theme. This campaign was well received by
trade and consumers.
•
Visual Merchandising development. A marketing toolkit was conceptualized and executed across points of sale in the
different store formats. This has helped build a consistent image for the different brands across the country.
•
Expanded the number of franchised retail stores, “The Time Factory”, to 76 during the last year.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
THE INDIAN WATCH MARKET
The size of Indian watch market is estimated to be at Rs 5000 Crores of which 60% of the business is contributed by the
organized sector. The brands at the premium end of the market and in the fashion and youth segments continue to grow
significantly faster than other brands. While the unit growth is driven by low price unbranded products, the growth at the mid
and higher price points is driven by creating higher value through improved styling and technology features. The growth in
the market has been led by marketing investments made by several Indian and Global brands (including the launch of several
new brands) which are increasing their focus on the Indian market. This increased competition and marketing investment is
a good sign; since we believe this will drive the growth of the industry, which is still in a nascent stage when compared to
penetration in developed countries.
The entry of several brands especially in the Fashion and Luxury segments of the market has resulted in increased competition
for the rather limited retail space available in the multi brand watch retail environment. And in turn this has led to further
investment and development of “modern retail” channels to meet the increased demand. The industry has overall witnessed
an increase in the contribution of “modern retail” to the overall business. The development of this channel, while enhancing
the consumer buying experience in terms of an international environment to shop in, is leading to an increase in margin
expectations from the branded companies. In view of this, companies which are in a position to offer a portfolio of brands are
better positioned for faster and profitable growth.
OUTLOOK/OPPORTUNITES & KEY CHALLENGES
The economic growth of India and the changing life style of the Indian consumers (especially the relatively younger consumers)
who are aspiring to a more international way of life on account of the growing awareness of the global fashion trends, bodes
well for the growth of the watch industry. And your company is well positioned to take advantage of this.
The company has an unique advantage of having several international brands with domestic manufacturing capabilities.
This allows international products to be sold in India at prices which offer tremendous “Value for Money” to the consumer.
The company also boasts of a portfolio of seven Global brands and the presence of its own franchised retail chain, “The Time
Factory”, comprising of 76 stores. This allows TGIL to participate at all ends of the value chain which in turn enhances
margins. By doing so, the company is also better positioned to control its own destiny more effectively and this provides a
sustainable growth platform for the business in the years ahead.
In addition, your Company continues to enjoy the support of the Timex Group Global Design Centre located in Milan and also
Global Supply Chain organization to support the business in India which has resulted in improved technology and styling of
the products.
The watch industry has changed significantly over the last few years and watches are being used as a fashion accessory
more than a time telling device. This has resulted in a trend for multiple watch ownership;” A different watch for different
occasions”. This is an encouraging trend for the industry and could propel industry growth significantly in future years and
TGIL with its wide array of brands and styles, ranging from Fashion and Classics to Sports can take full advantage of this.
In addition, India continues to be a key strategic market for the Timex Group and therefore enjoys easy access to its global
resources across all functional areas, which should help improve our operational efficiencies due to the scale of the Group’s
global operations.
Finally, at TGIL, we are benefiting from the operating leverage we now enjoy as a business and this means that future growth
will be more profitable.
RISKS / THREATS
The increase in the commodities prices, increased cost of sourcing from China and limited vendor capacity for the critical
watch parts in India are resulting in the increase in the sourcing costs of key components. The rising input costs shall have
an adverse impact on the operating margins, unless mitigated through various measures to cut costs (without compromising
quality). Several initiatives are being developed to address this risk.
5
The ‘Tsunami’ in Japan has severely impacted the supply of watch movements in the last few months, which has since
improved. Re-occurrence of such disasters in future could cause a supply chain risk for the Category.
In addition to this, increasing consumer preference for usage of mobile phones as a time keeping device instead of watches
also pose a major threat especially with the category of consumers who still use a watch to tell time. This is being suitably
addressed by several marketing initiatives by promoting watches as a fashion accessory as indicated in the section above.
GOVERNMENT POLICY
Your Company has been actively involved with the “All India Federation of Horological Industries”, an apex body of
Horological Industry in India. Your Company together with AIFHI has been taking up issues concerning the Watch Industry
and your Company in particular, with the various government agencies. With the active participation by majority of brands in
the Category, AIFHI has released a white paper on the industry, highlighting the key issues for which a change in Government
Policy is recommended and taken up with the respective authorities for the overall growth of the industry. We shall continue
our efforts to represent the interests of the Industry and your own Organisation.
FINANCE
Your Company has been able to manage its cash flow through improved collections and utilized the surplus cash to reduce
the borrowings and accounts payable, which has resulted in savings in Interest costs despite firming up of Interest Rates.
The Company does not hold any fixed deposits from the public, shareholders & employees. There were no overdue /
unclaimed deposits as on 31 March 2011.
During the year under review, the Company made payment aggregating to Rs.32.58 Crore by way of Central, State and local
sales taxes and duties as against Rs. 30.06 Crore in the previous year.
Your Company is also paying dividend on its Preference Shares at the agreed coupon rate.
SEGMENT WISE REPORTING
The segment wise information for watches and other activities are provided in the Notes to the Accounts.
INTERNAL CONTROL SYSTEMS AND THEIR ADEQUACY
Your Company has endeavoured to continuously improve the internal controls both relating to financial reporting and
Operations. Your Company has well established procedures for internal control, which are commensurate with its size and
operations.

findings to the Audit Committee, documented policy guidelines, predetermined authority levels and processes.
The systems and operations are regularly reviewed by the Audit Committee to ensure and review their effectiveness and
implementation. The Statutory Auditors of the Company also attend these meetings and convey their views on the adequacy
of internal control systems as well as financial disclosures. The Audit Committee also issues directives for enhancement in

growth. Your Company provides a challenging work environment that encourages meritocracy at all levels and has believed
in an environment that fosters accomplishment, ownership, creativity and mutual respect.

Annexure referred to in para 3 of the Auditors’ report to the members of Timex Group India Limited on the financial
statements for the year ended 31 March 2011
(i)
(a) The Company has maintained proper records showing full particulars, including quantitative details and situation
of fixed assets.
(b) As explained to us, the Company has a regular programme of physical verification of its fixed assets by which all
fixed assets are verified in a phased manner over a period of two years. According to this programme, the Company
has verified certain fixed assets at its factory at Baddi and its corporate office during the year. In our opinion, this
periodicity of physical verification is reasonable having regard to the size of the Company and the nature of its
assets. As informed to us, no material discrepancies were noticed on such verification. For assets lying with third
parties at the year-end, written confirmations have been obtained.
(c) In our opinion, and according to information and explanations given to us, the fixed assets disposed off during the
year are not substantial and therefore, do not affect the going concern assumption.
(ii)
(a) According to the information and explanations given to us, the inventories, except goods-in-transit and stocks
lying with third parties, have been physically verified by the management during the year. In our opinion, the
frequency of such verification is reasonable. For stocks lying with third parties at the year-end, written confirmations
have been obtained.
(b) In our opinion and according to the information and explanations given to us, the procedures for the physical
verification of inventories followed by the management are reasonable and adequate in relation to the size of the
Company and the nature of its business.
(c) On the basis of our examination of the records of inventories, we are of the opinion that the Company is maintaining
proper records of inventories. As confirmed to us, the discrepancies noticed on physical verification of inventories
as compared to book records were not material and have been properly dealt with in the books of account.
(iii) According to the information and explanations given to us, the Company has neither granted nor taken any loans,
secured or unsecured, to or from companies, firms or other parties covered in the register maintained under section 301
of the Companies Act, 1956. Accordingly, paragraphs 4(iii)(b) to (g) of the Order are not applicable.
(iv) In our opinion and according to the information and explanations given to us, and having regard to the explanation that
purchases of certain items of inventories and fixed assets are for the Company’s specialised requirements and similarly
certain goods and services sold are for the specialised requirements of the buyers and suitable alternative sources are
not available to obtain comparable quotations, there is an adequate internal control system commensurate with the size
of the Company and the nature of its business with regard to purchase of inventories and fixed assets and with regard
to the sale of goods and services. Further, on the basis of our examination and according to the information and
explanations given to us, we have neither come across nor have been informed of any instances of major weaknesses in
the aforesaid internal control system.
(v) (a) In our opinion and according to the information and explanations given to us, the particulars of contracts or
arrangements referred to in section 301 of the Companies Act, 1956 have been entered in the register required to be
maintained under that section.
(b)
In our opinion, and according to the information and explanations given to us, the transactions made in pursuance
of contracts and arrangements referred to in (a) above and exceeding the value of Rs. 5 lakh are for the specialized
requirements of the Company/buyers for which suitable alternative sources are not available to obtain comparable
quotations. However, on the basis of information and explanations provided, the same appears to be reasonable.
(vi) The Company has not accepted any deposits from public during the year.
(vii) In our opinion and according to the information and explanations given to us, the Company has an internal audit system
commensurate with the size and nature of its business.
21

Central Government for maintenance of cost records under Section 209(1)(d) of the Companies Act, 1956 in respect of
the products covered and are of the opinion that, prima facie, the prescribed accounts and records have been made and
maintained.However, we have not made a detailed examination of the records with a view to ensure whether they are
adequate or complete.
(ix) (a) According to the information and explanations given to us and on the basis of our examination of the records of the
Company, amounts deducted/accrued in the books of account in respect of undisputed statutory dues including
Provident Fund, Employees’ State Insurance, Income tax, Sales-tax, Service tax, Customs duty, Excise duty, Investor
Education and Protection Fund, Wealth tax and other material statutory dues, as applicable, have generally been

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
1.
Background
Timex Group India Limited (TGIL or the Company), a subsidiary of Timex Group Luxury Watches B.V. (formerly Timex
Watches B.V.), is a limited liability Company incorporated on 4 October 1988 under the provisions of the Companies Act,
1956. The Company is listed on Bombay Stock Exchange in India.
The Company’s business consists of manufacture and trade of watches and rendering of related after sales service. The
Company also provides accounting and information and technology support to group companies.
2.
Basis of preparation of financial statements
The financial statements are prepared and presented under the historical cost convention, on accrual basis of accounting
in accordance with the Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (‘GAAP’) in India and comply with the accounting
standards prescribed by the Companies (Accounting Standards) Rules, 2006 and the presentational requirements of the
Companies Act, 1956, to the extent applicable.
3.
Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent liabilities on the date of
the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Examples of
such estimates include estimated provision for doubtful debts, warranties, future obligations under employee retirement
benefit plans and estimated useful life of fixed assets. Differences between actual results and estimates are recognised
in the year in which the actual results are known or materialised. Any revision to accounting estimates is recognised in
accordance with the requirements of the respective accounting standard.
4.
Fixed assets and depreciation
Fixed assets are carried at cost of acquisition less accumulated depreciation/amortisation. Cost is inclusive of freight,
duties, taxes and any other directly attributable costs to bring the assets to their working condition for intended use.
Depreciation on tangible assets other than leasehold land and leasehold improvements is provided under the straight
line method over the useful life as estimated by the management or the derived useful life as per Schedule XIV of the
Companies Act, 1956, whichever is lower. Depreciation on the following categories of fixed assets is provided at rates
that are higher than the corresponding rates prescribed in Schedule XIV:
•
•
•
Plant and machinery (including office equipment) at rates ranging from 4.75% per annum to 100% per annum based
on technical evaluation.
Furniture and fixtures at the rate of 20% per annum.
Tools and moulds are fully depreciated in the year of manufacture / purchase.
Depreciation on additions is provided on a pro-rata basis from the date of acquisition/installation.
Depreciation on sale/deduction from fixed assets is provided for upto the date of sale/adjustment, as the case may be.
Leasehold land is amortised over the period of lease.
Leasehold improvements are depreciated under the straight line method over the lowest of the following:
(i) period of the lease
(ii) useful life as estimated by management
(iii) derived useful life as per Schedule XIV.
Intangible assets are amortised over their estimated useful life of 5 years.
Assets costing upto Rs. 5,000 are fully depreciated in the year of purchase.
During the previous year, the Company had revised its estimate of residual values of certain items of office equipment,
leasehold improvement, IT equipment and furniture and fixture and had provided accelerated depreciation thereon
amounting to Rs. 3,230 thousand.
31
5.
Impairment
The carrying amounts of assets are reviewed at each balance sheet date in accordance with Accounting Standard – 28
on ‘Impairment of Assets’ to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, the
recoverable amount of the asset is estimated. An impairment loss is recognised whenever the carrying amount of an
asset or cash generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount. Impairment losses are recognised in the profit and loss
account. An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable
amount. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset’s carrying amount does not exceed the carrying
amount that would have been determined net of depreciation or amortisation, if no impairment loss had been recognised.
6.
7.
Inventories
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost of inventories includes all costs incurred in
bringing the inventories to their present location and condition.
In determining the cost, the weighted average cost method is used. Fixed production overheads are allocated on the
basis of normal capacity of production facilities. Finished goods and work-in-progress include appropriate share of
allocable overheads.
Finished goods held for the purpose of demonstration are amortised over a period of three years after deducting
residual value.
Employee benefits
The Company’s obligations towards various employee benefits have been recognised as follows:
Short term benefit
All employee benefits payable/available within twelve months of rendering the service are classified as short-term
employee benefits. Benefits such as salaries, wages and bonus etc., are recognised in the profit and loss account in the
period in which the employee renders the related service.
Post employment benefits
In respect of the defined contribution plan in the form of Superannuation, the Trustees of the Scheme have entrusted
the administration of the Scheme to the Life Insurance Corporation of India (LIC). Annual contribution to the LIC is
recognised as an expense in the profit and loss account.
Charge for the year in respect of unfunded defined benefit plan in the form of gratuity has been ascertained based on
actuarial valuation at the year end using the Projected Unit Credit Method, which recognises each period of service as
giving rise to additional unit of employee benefit entitlement and measures each unit separately to build up the final
obligation. The obligation is measured at the present value of the estimated future cash flows. The discount rate used
for determining the present value of the obligation under defined benefit plans, is based on the market yields on
Government securities as at the valuation date having maturity periods approximating to the terms of related obligations.
Actuarial gains and losses are recognised immediately in the profit and loss account.
Provident Fund (PF): In respect of certain employees, the Company deposits contribution with the Regional Provident
Fund Commissioner and will have no obligation to pay further amounts. Accordingly, this plan is considered as a
defined contribution plan.
For other employees, the Company contributes to the PF Trust which is administered by trustees of an independently
constituted Trust recognised by the Income-tax Act, 1961. Contributions, including shortfall, if any, to the Trust are
charged to the profit and loss account on an accrual basis. As the provident fund scheme has a guaranteed return linked
with that under EPF Scheme, 1952, the same has been considered as a defined benefit plan.
Gains or losses on the curtailment or settlement of any defined benefit plan are recognised when the curtailment or
settlement occurs.
Other long term benefits
Compensated absences are in the nature of other long term employee benefits. Cost of long term benefit by way of
accumulating compensated absences that are expected to be availed after a period of 12 months from the year end are
recognised when the employees render the service that increases their entitlement to future compensated absences.
32
The liability in respect of compensated absences is provided on the basis of an actuarial valuation done by an independent
actuary at the year end. Actuarial gains and losses are recognized immediately in the Profit and Loss Account.
8.
Revenue recognition
Revenue from sale of goods is recognised on delivery of goods to the buyer which coincides with transfer of all
significant risks and rewards of ownership. The amount recognised as sale is inclusive of excise duty and excludes sales
tax and trade and quantity discounts.
Revenue from services is recognised on rendering of services to customers on accrual basis.
Interest income is recognised on a time proportion basis.
9.
Foreign currency transactions
Foreign exchange transactions are recorded using the exchange rate prevailing on the date of the transaction. Exchange
differences arising on foreign exchange transactions settled during the year are recognised in the Profit and Loss
Account of the year.
Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies remaining unsettled as at the balance sheet date are translated
at the exchange rates on that date and the resultant exchange differences are recognised in the Profit and Loss Account.
10. Warranties
Warranty costs are estimated by the management on the basis of past experience. Provision is made for the estimated
liability in respect of warranty costs in the year of sale of goods.
11. Taxation
Income tax expense comprises current tax/fringe benefit tax (that is amount of tax for the year determined in accordance
with the Income-tax Act, 1961) and deferred tax charge or credit (reflecting the tax effects of timing difference between
accounting income and taxable income for the period). The deferred tax charge or credit and the corresponding deferred
tax liability or deferred tax asset is recognised using the tax rates that have been enacted or substantially enacted as at
the balance sheet date. Deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent there is reasonable certainty of realisation.
Such assets are reviewed at each balance sheet date to reassess realisation. However, where there are carried forward
losses or unabsorbed depreciation under taxation laws, deferred tax assets are recognised only if there is virtual
certainty of realisation of such assets.
The credits arising from Minimum Alternate Tax paid are recognised as receivable only if there is reasonable certainty
that the Company will have sufficient taxable income in future years in order to utilize such credits.
12. Leases
Lease rentals in respect of assets taken on operating lease are charged on a straight-line basis to the Profit and Loss Account.
Lease income from operating leases is recognised in the Profit and Loss Account on a straight line basis over the lease term.
13. Other Provisions and Contingent Liabilities
A provision arising from claims, litigation, assessment, fines, penalties, etc. is recognised when the Company has a
present obligation as a result of a past event and it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic
benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.
These are reviewed at each balance sheet date and adjusted to reflect current management estimates. Contingent
liabilities are disclosed in respect of possible obligations that have risen from past events and the existence of which will
be confirmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the
control of the enterprise. When there is a possible obligation or present obligation where the likelihood of an outflow
is remote, no disclosure or provision is made.
Provision for sales returns is recognised to the extent of estimated margin on expected returns based on past trends.
14. Earnings per share
Basic earnings per share are computed using the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the
year. Diluted earnings per share are computed using the weighted average number of equity and dilutive potential
equity shares outstanding during the year, except where the results would be anti-dilutive.

Segment accounting policies
Besides the normal accounting policies followed as described in Schedule 14, segment revenues, results, assets and
liabilities include the respective amounts directly identified to each of the segments and amounts allocated on a reasonable
basis. The description of segment assets and liabilities and the accounting policies in relation to segment accounting
are as under:
a)
Segment assets and liabilities
Segment assets include all operating assets used by a segment and consist principally of fixed assets, capital work
in progress, current assets and loans and advances. Segment liabilities include all operating liabilities in respect of
a segment and consist principally of creditors and accrued liabilities. Segment liabilities do not include share
capital, reserves, current tax and deferred tax liability. Segment assets do not include advance tax, deferred tax asset
and fixed deposits.
b)
Segment revenue and expenses
Segment revenue and expenses are directly attributable to the segment and have been allocated to various segments
on the basis of specific identification. However, segment revenue and expenses do not include interest and other
income/expense in respect of non segmental activities.
23. Employee benefits

The guidance on implementing AS-15 issued by Accounting Standards Board (ASB) of the Institute of Chartered
Accountants of India states that benefit involving employer established provident funds, which require interest shortfalls
to be recompensed are to be considered as defined benefits plans. Pending the issuance of the guidance note from
43
Actuarial Society of India, the Company’s actuary has expressed its inability to reliably measure provident fund liabilities.
Accordingly, the related information has not been disclosed. The amount contributed by the Company during the year
in respect of such plan is Rs. 5,841 thousand (previous year Rs. 5,272 thousand)
Other long term benefits:
The amount recognised in the profit and loss account in respect of compensated absences is Rs. 4,034 thousand
(previous year Rs 2,365 thousand).

26. The Company has established a comprehensive system of maintenance of information and documents as required by
the transfer pricing regulation under sections 92-92F of the Income-Tax Act, 1961. Since the law requires existence of
such information and documentation to be contemporaneous in nature, the Company continuously updates its
documentation for the international transactions entered into with the associated enterprises during the financial year
and expects such records to be in existence latest by such date as required under law. The management is of the opinion
that its international transactions are at arms length so that the aforesaid legislation will not have any impact on the
financial statements, particularly on the amount of tax expense and that of provision for taxation.
