According to Tata Sky’s annual report, the redemption premium payable if the put/call option is exercised at the end of three years amounting to Rs 67,72,60,000 (Rs 62,38,86,234 for debentures raised in previous year) and expenses in relation to the issue amounting to Rs 34,50,000 (Rs 1,00,24,560 on debentures raised in previous year) have been set off against the Securities Premium Account in accordance with Section 78 of the Companies Act, 1956.
