Appendix 1 : MCEV methodology and approach

   MCEV methodology

   The calculations of embedded value and new business profits have been performed using a market consistent
   embedded value (“MCEV”) approach. This approach differs from a traditional EV approach primarily in respect of the
   way in which allowance for risk is made.

   Within the traditional EV approach allowance is made for risk through an increase in the risk discount rate used to
   value future shareholder cash flows, whilst within the MCEV calculation explicit separate allowances are made for
   risk.

    Components of MCEV

   There are two components to the MCEV:

   1. Shareholders’ adjusted net worth –this component represents the market value of assets attributable to
   shareholders. This amount is derived from the Indian GAAP balance sheet adjusted to allow for assets on a market
   value basis, elimination of intangible assets and to allow for shareholder attributable assets or liabilities residing
   within the unit-linked and non Par policyholder funds.

   2. Value of in-force –this component represents the discounted value of after tax shareholder attributable
   cashflows expected on the business as at the valuation date. No allowance is made for future new business. This
   amount has been adjusted to deduct allowances for non hedgeable risk, frictional costs of required capital and the
   time value of financial options and guarantees.

                                                                                                             22
