PART I
 
Item 1.
Business.
 
Introduction
 
We are a blank check company organized under the laws of the State of Delaware on March 15, 2006 for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition or other similar transaction with one or more businesses that have operations primarily in India. While our efforts in identifying a prospective target business have not been limited to a particular industry, we have focused primarily on privately owned businesses within the financial services, healthcare, infrastructure and consumer, retail and hospitality sectors. However, we remain willing to review any business opportunity presented to us in any industry sector.
 
Our entire activity from inception through December 31, 2006 has been to prepare for our initial public offering and to effect a business combination. We have not generated any revenues.
 
Our principal executive office is located at 330 East 38th Street, New York, New York 10016 and our telephone number at that address is (212) 681-6783.
 
Identification of Industry Sectors
 
We are focusing our efforts on identifying privately owned businesses within the financial services, healthcare, infrastructure, and consumer, retail and hospitality sectors for our potential target business combination. We believe privately owned businesses within these sectors represent particularly attractive acquisition targets with favorable valuations and significant growth potential.
 
Financial Services
 
The Tribune India reported that during 2004, local banks such as ICICI, HDFC, Bank Ltd, Unit Trust of India, and Industrial Development Bank extended approximately $2.5 billion in loans, registering a 62% growth over the prior year in the $21.5 billion retail business market that had previously been dominated by public sector banks. Home loans escalated approximately 58% during that one year period. Further, consumers in India are substantially underleveraged relative to other Asian countries, such as Thailand, Korea and Taiwan, and with respect to other countries such as the United States. We believe that vigorous business transformations, combined with a large and increasingly consumption-driven population, is fueling a strong growth in the financial services industry, thereby presenting attractive acquisition opportunities for businesses, such as consumer finance and on-line trading, that are positioned to take advantage of anticipated demand and growth in the financial services industry.
 
Healthcare
 
India’s continually rising literacy rate, together with increasing income levels and media focus, has heightened public awareness of health care issues. A joint study conducted by McKinsey & Co. and the Confederation of Indian Industry shows estimated healthcare spending that is expected to double over the next ten years, with the majority of such increase expected to be in private healthcare. Noting that with costs of quality healthcare in India averaged 80% to 90% less than western societies, this study projected that the total Indian healthcare market could rise from $22.2 billion in 2005 to $69 billion by 2012. Additionally, an IBEF study shows that healthcare tourism is increasing by an average of 30% each year, such that today, one out of ten patients in Indian hospitals is from outside
 

of India. This study concluded that India has the potential to attract over one million health tourists a year, contributing approximately $5 billion to the Indian economy. The Indian government is also contributing to the growing healthcare industry by providing incentives to create and upgrade infrastructure, as well as reduce operational costs. We believe that businesses that provide state-of-the-art services or products to the healthcare and/or pharmaceutical industries are particularly attractive acquisition targets.
 
Consumer, Retail and Hospitality
 
A.T. Kearney Inc. estimated India’s total retail market in 2004 at $202.6 billion, with an anticipated compounded growth rate of 30% over the next five years. Retail business activities are expected to grow at a rate of 25% per year by 2010. Supporting sectors such as real estate are similarly growing. Global real estate consulting group, Knight Frank LLP, ranked India fifth in the list of 30 emerging retail markets and has predicted an impressive 20% growth rate for the retail real estate segment by 2010. Business travel and domestic and foreign tourism are also dramatically increasing and, by 2014, are expected to generate approximately $90.4 billion of total demand and nearly 28 million jobs, according to published research performed by the World Travel and Tourism Council. We believe that businesses in the travel and business services, for example, are an attractive acquisition target because of their position to take advantage of the increases in commercial and personal travel related to business expansions and rising disposable incomes.
 
Infrastructure
 
The Indian government has announced plans to spend at least $17 billion to upgrade roads, airports and ports by 2010 and at least two dozen significant international civil engineering, construction and infrastructure consultancy firms have set up operations in India within the past several years. We believe there are significant growth opportunities for companies that develop and build infrastructure, including providing logistics, transportation and financial services to support development, because of the rapidly growing Indian economy and increasing demand by the large, growing Indian work force for ongoing infrastructure improvements.
 
Effecting a Business Combination
 
General
 
We are not presently engaged in, and we will not engage in, any substantive commercial business for an indefinite period of time.  We intend to utilize the amount of cash held in trust, derived from the proceeds of the initial public offering, and the proceeds derived from the sale of private placement warrants sold prior to the date of the initial public offering, as well as our existing cash, our capital stock, debt or a combination of these in effecting a business combination. A business combination may involve the acquisition of, or merger with, a company which does not need substantial additional capital but which desires to establish a public trading market for its shares, while avoiding what it may deem to be adverse consequences of undertaking a public offering itself. These include time delays, significant expense, loss of voting control and compliance with various federal and state securities laws. In the alternative, a business combination may involve a company which may be financially unstable or in its early stages of development or growth.
 
We have not identified a target business
 
Although our focus in identifying a prospective target business is on private businesses within the financial services, healthcare, infrastructure/industrial growth, and consumer, retail and hospitality
 
-2-

sectors, our efforts in identifying a prospective target business will not be limited to a particular industry and we may ultimately acquire a business in any industry we deem appropriate. Subject to the limitations that a target business have a fair market value of at least 80% of our net assets at the time of the acquisition as described below in more detail, we will have virtually unrestricted flexibility in identifying and selecting a prospective acquisition candidate. We have not established any specific attributes or criteria (financial or otherwise) for prospective target businesses. To the extent we effect a business combination with a financially unstable company or an entity in its early stage of development or growth, including entities without established records of sales or earnings, we may be affected by numerous risks inherent in the business and operations of financially unstable and early stage or potential emerging growth companies. In addition, to the extent that we effect a business combination with an entity in an industry characterized by a high level of risk, we may be affected by the currently unascertainable risks of that industry. An extremely high level of risk frequently characterizes many industries which experience rapid growth. In addition, although our management will endeavor to evaluate the risks inherent in a particular industry or target business, we cannot assure you that we will properly ascertain or assess all significant risk factors.
 
Sources of target businesses
 
We anticipate that target business candidates will be brought to our attention as a consequence of meetings initiated by our officers, directors or special advisors with securities broker-dealers, investment bankers, venture capitalists, bankers or other members of the financial community. We also anticipate we will receive unsolicited proposals from persons or entities who may become aware of our interest in acquiring a target business through public awareness of our acquisition intentions. Our officers and directors and their affiliates may also bring to our attention target business candidates. While we do not presently anticipate engaging the services of professional firms that specialize in business acquisitions on any formal basis, we may engage these firms in the future, in which event we may pay a finder’s fee or other compensation. In no event, however, will any of our existing officers and directors or any entity with which they are affiliated be paid any finder’s fee, consulting fee or other compensation prior to or in connection with the consummation of a business combination.
 
Size of potential target business
 
We intend to identify a prospective target business, within our target industry sectors, that is of a reasonable size and has good growth potential. Based on our experience in these target industry sectors, as well as our knowledge of the Indian market, we believe the likely target business is one where the founder/entrepreneur is looking for liquidity, has exhausted his or her skills to continue to grow the business and is in need of growth capital for expansion, or is a business owned by a larger company that desires to spin off development of one of its smaller, possibly “non core” units, or a target business that shares several of these traits. We plan to position our company to effect a business combination within a range of $55 million to $250 million because we believe:
 
•  
there are a substantial number of business combination opportunities in this target value range which are large enough and possess the necessary growth potential to be a public company; and
 
•  
there is less competition in this transaction size from larger private equity investors and strategic investors who we believe seek opportunities in excess of $250 million.
 
Accordingly, while we anticipate consummating a transaction with a value within a range of $55 million to $250 million, we reserve the right to pursue transactions that are significantly in excess
 
-3-

of this range. We have no limitation on our ability to raise additional funds through the private sale of securities or the incurrence of indebtedness that would enable us to effect a business combination with an operating business having a fair market value in excess of 80% of our net assets at the time of such an acquisition. Since we have no specific business combination under consideration, we have not entered into any such fund raising arrangement and have no current intention of doing so.
 
Selection of a target business and structuring of a business combination
 
Subject to the requirement that our initial business combination must be with a target business with a fair market value that is equal to at least 80% of our net assets at the time of such acquisition, our management has virtually unrestricted flexibility in identifying and selecting a prospective target business. We have not established any specific attributes or criteria (financial or otherwise) for prospective target businesses. We expect that our management will diligently review all of the proposals we receive with respect to a prospective target business. In evaluating a prospective target business, our management will consider, among other factors, the following:
 
•  
financial condition and results of operation;
 
•  
growth potential;
 
•  
experience and skill of management and availability of additional personnel;
 
•  
earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization charges;
 
•  
consistent operating margins;
 
•  
nature of the customers and contracts;
 
•  
stability and continuity in customer relationships;
 
•  
backlog of orders for services;
 
•  
capital requirements;
 
•  
competitive position;
 
•  
barriers to entry in the relevant industry sector;
 
•  
stage of development of the products, processes or services;
 
•  
degree of current or potential market acceptance of the products, processes or services;
 
•  
proprietary features and degree of intellectual property or other protection of the products, processes or services;
 
•  
regulatory environment of the relevant industry sector; and
 
•  
costs associated with effecting the business combination.
 
These criteria are not intended to be exhaustive. Any evaluation relating to the merits of a particular business combination will be based, to the extent relevant, on the above factors as well as other considerations deemed relevant by our management in effecting a business combination
 
-4-

consistent with our business objective. In evaluating a prospective target business, we will conduct an extensive due diligence review which will encompass, among other things, meetings with incumbent management and inspection of facilities, as well as review of financial and other information which will be made available to us.
 
We will endeavor to structure a business combination so as to achieve the most favorable tax treatment to us, the target business and both companies’ stockholders. We cannot assure you, however, that the Internal Revenue Service or appropriate state tax authority will agree with our tax treatment of the business combination.
 
The time and costs required to select and evaluate a target business and to structure and complete the business combination cannot presently be ascertained with any degree of certainty. Any costs incurred with respect to the identification and evaluation of a prospective target business with which a business combination is not ultimately completed will result in a loss to us and reduce the amount of capital available to otherwise complete a business combination. None of our officers, directors or special advisors will receive any compensation prior to the consummation of our initial business combination, except for out-of pocket expenses incurred by them on our behalf.
 
Fair market value of target business
 
The initial target business that we acquire must have a fair market value equal to at least 80% of our net assets at the time of such acquisition. The fair market value of such business will be determined by our board of directors based upon standards generally accepted by the financial community, such as actual and potential sales, earnings and cash flow and book value. If our board is not able to independently determine that the target business has a sufficient fair market value, we will obtain an opinion from an unaffiliated, independent investment banking firm that is a member of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. with respect to the satisfaction of such criteria. Since any opinion, if obtained, would merely state that fair market value meets the 80% of net assets threshold, it is not anticipated that copies of such opinion would be distributed to our stockholders, although copies will be provided to stockholders who request it. We will not be required to obtain an opinion from an investment banking firm as to the fair market value absent the inability of our board of directors to independently determine that the target business does have sufficient fair market value. Nevertheless we reserve the right to obtain an opinion from an unaffiliated, independent investment banking firm if we deem it appropriate, for example, in the event of an actual or perceived conflict of interest.
 
Probable lack of business diversification
 
As of December 31, 2006, we had $57,004,924 of principal and interest held in the trust account, which we may use to complete a business combination. Our initial business combination must be with a business that has its operations primarily in India whose fair market value is equal to at least 80% of our net assets a the time of such acquisition. In order to do so, we have no limitation on our ability to raise additional funds through the private sale of securities or the incurrence of indebtedness that would enable us to effect a business combination with an operating business having a fair market value in excess of 80% of our net assets at the time of such an acquisition. Since we have no specific business combination under consideration, we have not entered into any such fund raising arrangement and have no current intention of doing so. As a result, we are likely to complete a business combination with only a single operating business, which may have only a limited number of products or services. The resulting lack of diversification:
 
•  
will result in our dependency upon the performance of a single operating business;
 
-5-

•  
will result in our dependency upon the development or market acceptance of a single or limited number of products, processes or services; and
 
•  
may subject us to numerous economic, competitive and regulatory developments, any or all of which may have a substantial adverse impact upon the particular industry in which we may operate subsequent to a business combination.
 
We may not be able to diversify our operations or benefit from the possible spreading of risks or offsetting of losses, unlike other entities which may have the resources to complete several business combinations in different industries or different areas of a single industry so as to diversify risks and offset losses. Further, the prospects for our success may be entirely dependent upon the future performance of the initial target business we acquire.
 
Limited ability to evaluate the target business’ management
 
Although we intend to closely scrutinize the management of a prospective target business when evaluating the desirability of effecting a business combination, we cannot assure you that our assessment of the target business’ management will prove to be correct. In addition, we cannot assure you that the future management will have the necessary skills, qualifications or abilities to manage a public company intending to embark on a program of business development. Furthermore, the future role of our directors, if any, in the target business cannot presently be stated with any certainty. While it is possible that one or more of our directors will remain associated in some capacity with us following a business combination, it is unlikely that any of them will devote their full efforts to our affairs subsequent to a business combination. Moreover, we cannot assure you that our directors will have significant experience or knowledge relating to the operations of the particular target business.
 
Following a business combination, we may seek to recruit additional managers to supplement the incumbent management of the target business. We cannot assure you that we will have the ability to recruit additional managers, or that any such additional managers will have the skills, knowledge or experience necessary to enhance the incumbent management.
 
Opportunity for stockholder approval of business combination
 
Prior to the completion of a business combination, we will submit the transaction to our stockholders for approval, even if the nature of the acquisition would not ordinarily require stockholder approval under applicable state law. In connection with seeking stockholder approval of a business combination, we will furnish our stockholders with proxy solicitation materials prepared in accordance with the Exchange Act, which, among other matters, will include a description of the operations of the target business and audited historical financial statements of the business. These materials will also be provided to the holders of our common stock although their vote will not be solicited.
 
In connection with any vote required for our initial business combination, all of our existing stockholders have agreed to vote the shares of common stock owned and acquired by them immediately prior to the initial public offering in accordance with the majority of the shares of common stock voted by the public stockholders other than our existing stockholders, including purchasers in our private placement offering. As a result, our existing stockholders, including purchasers in our private placement offering, will not have any conversion rights attributable to their shares owned and acquired immediately prior to the initial public offering in the event that a business combination transaction is approved by a majority of our public stockholders. We will proceed with the initial business combination only if both a majority of the shares of common stock voted by the
 
-6-

public stockholders are voted in favor of the business combination and public stockholders owning less than 20% of the shares sold in the initial public offering exercise their conversion rights.
 
Conversion rights
 
At the time we seek stockholder approval of any business combination, we will offer each stockholder, other than our existing stockholders, the right to have such shares of common stock converted to cash if the stockholder votes against the business combination and the business combination is approved and completed. Our existing stockholders will not have this right because they have agreed to vote their shares of common stock owned and acquired by them immediately prior to the initial public offering in accordance with the majority of the shares of common stock voted by the public stockholders, other than our existing stockholders, including purchasers in our private placement offering. The actual per-share conversion price will be equal to the amount in the trust account, exclusive of any interest and the amount representing the deferred portion of the underwriters’ fees and the deferred balance of the representative’s non-accountable expense allowance, as of two business days prior to the consummation of the proposed business combination, divided by 7,250,000 shares sold in the initial public offering. Without taking into account interest, if any, earned on the trust account, the initial per-share conversion price would be approximately $7.82, or $0.18 less than the per-unit offering price of $8.00. There may be a disincentive for public stockholders to exercise their conversion rights due to the fact that the amount available to such stockholders is likely to be less than the purchase price paid for the unit in the initial public offering. Voting against the business combination alone will not result in an election to exercise a stockholder’s conversion rights. A stockholder must also affirmatively exercise such conversion rights at or prior to the time the business combination is voted upon by the stockholders. An eligible stockholder may request conversion at any time after the mailing to our stockholders of the proxy statement and prior to the vote taken with respect to a proposed business combination at a meeting held for that purpose, but the request will not be granted unless the stockholder votes against the business combination and the business combination is approved and completed.
 
Any request for conversion, once made, may be withdrawn at any time up to the date of the meeting. It is anticipated that the funds to be distributed to stockholders entitled to convert their shares who elect conversion will be distributed within 30 days after completion of a business combination. Any stockholder who converts his, her or its stock into his, her or its share of the trust account still has the right to exercise the warrants that he, she or it received as part of the units. We will not complete any business combination if stockholders, owning 20% or more of the shares sold in the initial public offering, both vote against the business combination and exercise their conversion rights.
 
Liquidation if no business combination
 
If a letter of intent, agreement in principle or definitive agreement for a business combination has not been executed prior to November 20, 2007, which is two months before the initial deadline for a business combination, our board will, prior to such date, convene, adopt and recommend to our stockholders a plan of dissolution and distribution and on such date file a proxy statement with the SEC seeking stockholder approval for such plan. If, however, a letter of intent, agreement in principle or definitive agreement for a business combination has been executed prior to January 20, 2008, we will abandon our plan of dissolution and distribution and seek the consummation of that business combination. If a proxy statement seeking the approval of our stockholders for that business combination has not been filed prior to May 20, 2008, our board will, prior to such date, convene, adopt and recommend to our stockholders a plan of dissolution and distribution, and on such date file a proxy statement with the SEC seeking stockholder approval for such plan, as described below.
 
-7-

Upon dissolution, we will distribute to all of our public stockholders, in proportion to their respective equity interests, an aggregate sum equal to the amount in the trust account (including the amount representing the $725,000 deferred portion of the underwriters’ fees and the $832,500 deferred balance of the representative’s non-accountable expense allowance, plus any interest), net of taxes payable. We anticipate notifying the trustee of the trust account to begin liquidating such assets promptly after such date. Our existing stockholders, including purchasers in our private placement offering, have waived their rights to participate in any liquidation distribution, but only with respect to those shares of common stock owned by them prior to the initial public offering; they will participate in any liquidation distribution with respect to any shares of common stock acquired in connection with or following the initial public offering. There will be no distribution from the trust account with respect to our existing stockholders’ warrants which will expire worthless. We will pay the costs of liquidation from our working capital of up to $2,025,000 held outside of the trust account. If such funds are insufficient, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer have agreed pursuant to letter agreements with the underwriters to pay any additional funds necessary to complete such liquidation and to indemnify us from any third party claims against us that would reduce the amount of funds held in trust.
 
The proceeds deposited in the trust account could become subject to the claims of our creditors which could have higher priority than the claims of our public stockholders. Accordingly, the actual per-share liquidation price could be less than $7.82, plus interest, due to claims of creditors. Although we will seek to have all vendors, prospective target businesses or other entities we engage execute agreements with us waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies held in the trust account for the benefit of our public stockholders, there is no guarantee that they will execute such agreements or even if they execute such agreements that they would be prevented from bringing claims against the trust account, including but not limited to, fraudulent inducement, breach of fiduciary responsibility or other similar claims, as well as claims challenging the enforceability of the waiver, in each case in order to gain an advantage with a claim against our assets, including the funds held in the trust account. If any third party refused to execute an agreement waiving such claims to the monies held in the trust account, we would perform an analysis of the alternatives available to us if we chose not to engage such third party and evaluate if such engagement would be in the best interest of our stockholders if such third party refused to waive such claims. Examples of possible instances where we may engage a third party that refused to execute a waiver include the engagement of a third party consultant whose particular expertise or skills are believed by management to be significantly superior to those of other consultants that would agree to execute a waiver or in cases where management is unable to find a provider of required services willing to provide the waiver. In any event, our management would perform an analysis of the alternatives available to it and would only enter into an agreement with a third party that did not execute a waiver if management believed that such third party’s engagement would be significantly more beneficial to us than any alternative. In addition, there is no guarantee that such entities will agree to waive any claims they may have in the future as a result of, or arising out of, any negotiations, contracts or agreements with us and will not seek recourse against the trust account for any reason. Our chief executive officer and chief financial officer have personally agreed, pursuant to letter agreement with us and the representative, that if we liquidate prior to the consummation of a business combination, they will be personally liable to pay debts and obligations to target businesses or vendors or other entities that are owed money by us for services rendered or contracted for or products sold to us in excess of the net proceeds of amount held in the trust account. We cannot assure you, however, that our chief executive officer and chief financial officer will be able to satisfy those obligations.
 
Our public stockholders will be entitled to receive funds from the trust account only in the event of the expiration of our existence and our liquidation or if they seek to convert their respective shares into cash upon a business combination which the stockholder voted against and which is
 
-8-

completed by us. In no other circumstances will a stockholder have any right or interest of any kind to or in the trust account.
 
Under the Delaware General Corporation Law, stockholders may be held liable for claims by third parties against a corporation to the extent of distributions received by them in a dissolution. If the corporation complies with certain procedures set forth in Section 280 of the Delaware General Corporation Law intended to ensure that it makes reasonable provision for all claims against it, including a 60-day notice period during which any third-party claims can be brought against the corporation, a 90-day period during which the corporation may reject any claims brought, and an additional 150-day waiting period before any liquidating distributions are made to stockholders, any liability of stockholders with respect to a liquidating distribution is limited to the lesser of such stockholder’s pro rata share of the claim or the amount distributed to the stockholder, and any liability of the stockholder would be barred after the third anniversary of the dissolution. Because we will not be complying with Section 280, we will seek stockholder approval to comply with Section 281(b) of the Delaware General Corporation Law, requiring us to adopt a plan that will provide for our payment, based on facts known to us at such time, of (i) all existing claims, (ii) all pending claims and (iii) all claims that may be potentially brought against us within the subsequent 10 years. However, because we are a blank check company, rather than an operating company, and our operations will be limited to searching for prospective target businesses to acquire, the only likely claims to arise would be from our vendors and service providers (such as accountants, lawyers, investment bankers, etc.) and potential target businesses. As described above, we are obligated to have all vendors, service providers and prospective target businesses execute agreements with us waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind they may have in or to any monies held in the trust account. As a result, the claims that could be made against us will be significantly limited and the likelihood that any claim would result in any liability extending to the trust is remote.
 
If we are forced to file a bankruptcy case or an involuntary bankruptcy case is filed against us which is not dismissed, the proceeds held in the trust account could be subject to applicable bankruptcy law, and may be included in our bankruptcy estate and subject to the claims of third parties with priority over the claims of our stockholders. To the extent any bankruptcy claims deplete the trust account, we cannot assure you we will be able to return to our public stockholders at least $7.82 per share.
 
If a letter of intent, agreement in principle or definitive agreement for a business combination has not been executed prior to November 20, 2007, which is two months before the initial deadline for a business combination, our board will, prior to such date, convene, adopt and recommend to our stockholders a plan of dissolution and distribution and on such date file a proxy statement with the SEC seeking stockholder approval for such plan. If, however, a letter of intent, agreement in principle or definitive agreement for a business combination has been executed prior to January 20, 2008, we will abandon our plan of dissolution and distribution and seek the consummation of that business combination. If a proxy statement seeking the approval of our stockholders for that business combination has not been filed prior to May 20, 2008, our board will, prior to such date, convene, adopt and recommend to our stockholders a plan of dissolution and distribution and on such date file a proxy statement with the SEC seeking stockholder approval for such plan. We currently believe that any plan of dissolution and liquidation subsequent to the expiration of the January and May deadlines would proceed in approximately the following manner:
 
•  
our board will, prior to such date, convene, adopt and recommend to our stockholders a plan of dissolution and distribution, and on such date file a proxy statement with the SEC seeking stockholder approval for such plan;
 
-9-

•  
upon such deadline, we would file our preliminary proxy statement with the SEC;
 
•  
if the SEC does not review the preliminary proxy statement, then, 10 days following the passing of such deadline, we will deliver the proxy statements to our stockholders, and 30 days following the passing of such deadline, we will convene a meeting of our stockholders, at which they will either approve or reject our plan of dissolution and liquidation; and
 
•  
if the SEC does review the preliminary proxy statement, we currently estimate that we will receive its comments 30 days following the passing of such deadline. We will deliver the proxy statements to our stockholders following the conclusion of the comment and review process (the length of which we cannot predict with any certainty, and which may be substantial) and we will convene a meeting of our stockholders at which they will either approve or reject our plan of dissolution and liquidation.
 
In the event we seek stockholder approval for a plan of dissolution and liquidation and do not obtain such approval, we will nonetheless continue to pursue stockholder approval for our dissolution. If no proxy statement seeking the approval of our stockholders for a business combination has been filed by May 20, 2008, our board will, prior to such date, convene, adopt and recommend to our stockholders a plan of dissolution and distribution, and on such date file a proxy statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission seeking stockholder approval for such plan. The funds held in our trust account may not be distributed except upon our dissolution and, unless and until such approval is obtained from our stockholders, the funds held in our trust account will not be released. Consequently, holders of a majority of our outstanding stock must approve our dissolution in order to receive the funds held in our trust account and the funds will not be available for any other corporate purpose.
 
Certificate of Incorporation
 
Our certificate of incorporation sets forth certain requirements and restrictions that shall apply to us until the consummation of a business combination. Specifically, our certificate of incorporation provides, among other things, that:
 
•  
prior to the consummation of a business combination, we will submit such business combination to our stockholders for approval;
 
•  
we may consummate the business combination only if approved by a majority of our stockholders and public stockholders owning less than 20% of the shares sold in the initial public offering exercise their conversion rights;
 
•  
if a business combination is approved and consummated, public stockholders who voted against the business combination and exercised their conversion rights will receive their pro rata share of the trust account; and
 
•  
if a business combination is not consummated or a letter of intent, an agreement in principle or a definitive agreement is not signed within the time periods specified in the certificate of incorporation, then we will be dissolved and distribute to all of our public stockholders their pro rata share of the trust account and any remaining net assets.
 
Under Delaware law, the foregoing requirements and restrictions may be amended if our Board of Directors adopts a resolution declaring the advisability of an amendment which is then
 
-10-

approved by a majority of our stockholders of our outstanding shares. Such an amendment could reduce or eliminate the protection that such requirements and restrictions afford to our stockholders. However, pursuant to our Articles of Incorporation, neither we nor the Board of Directors will propose or seek stockholder approval of any amendment of these provisions.
 
Audited Financial Statements of Target Business
 
We will not acquire a target business if audited financial statements in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles cannot be obtained for the target business. Additionally, our management will provide our stockholders with audited financial statements, prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, of the prospective target business as part of the proxy solicitation materials sent to stockholders to assist them in assessing a business combination. We cannot assure you that any particular target business identified by us as a potential acquisition candidate will have financial statements prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles or that the potential target business will be able to prepare its financial statements in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles. To the extent that this requirement cannot be met, we may not be able to acquire the proposed target business. While this may limit the pool of potential acquisition candidates, we do not believe that this limitation will be material.
 
Competition
 
In identifying, evaluating and selecting a target business, we may encounter intense competition from other entities having a business objective similar to ours. Based on publicly available information, from August 2003 through December 2006, approximately 78 similarly structured blank check companies have completed initial public offerings, including three with a specific focus on Indian target businesses, and numerous others have filed registration statements. Many of these entities are well established and have extensive experience identifying and effecting business combinations directly or through affiliates. Many of these competitors possess greater technical, human and other resources than us and our financial resources are relatively limited when contrasted with those of many of these competitors. While we believe there are numerous potential target businesses that we could acquire with the net proceeds of our initial public offering and the sale of warrants in our private placement offering, our ability to compete in acquiring certain sizable target businesses will be limited by our available financial resources. This inherent competitive limitation gives others an advantage in pursuing the acquisition of a target business. Further:
 
•  
our obligation to seek stockholder approval of a business combination may delay the completion of a transaction;
 
•  
our obligation to convert into cash shares of common stock held by our stockholders if such holders both vote against the business combination and also seek conversion of their shares may reduce the resources available to us for a business combination; and
 
•  
our outstanding warrants and option, and the future dilution they potentially represent, may not be viewed favorably by certain target businesses.
 
Any of these factors may place us at a competitive disadvantage in successfully negotiating and consummating a business combination. Our management believes, however, that our status as a public entity and potential access to the United States public equity markets may give us a competitive advantage over privately-held entities having a similar business objective as us in acquiring a target business with significant growth potential on favorable terms.
 
-11-

If we succeed in effecting a business combination, there will be, in all likelihood, intense competition from competitors of the target business. In particular, certain industries which experience rapid growth frequently attract an increasingly larger number of competitors, including competitors with increasingly greater financial, marketing, technical and other resources than the initial competitors in the industry. The degree of competition characterizing the industry of any prospective target business cannot presently be ascertained. We cannot assure you that, subsequent to a business combination, we will have the resources to compete effectively, especially to the extent that the target business is in a high growth industry.
 
Employees
 
We currently have two full-time officers, F. Jacob Cherian, our President and Chief Executive Officer and Suhel Kanuga, our Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer, Treasurer and Secretary, who have relocated to India since the consummation of the initial public offering, taking up full-time residency in Mumbai, to oversee the sourcing, identification and selection of a target business, the negotiation of business combination terms and the conduct of due diligence until the consummation of a business combination or our liquidation. We have no other employees.
 
Item 1A.
Risk Factors.
 
An investment in our securities involves a high degree of risk. You should consider carefully all of the risks described below, together with the other information contained in this annual report.
 
Risks Associated with Our Business
 
We are a development stage company with no operating history and very limited resources.
 
Since we do not have an operating history, you will have no basis upon which to evaluate our ability to achieve our business objective, which is to acquire an operating business. We have no present revenue and will not generate any revenues (other than interest income on the proceeds from the proceeds held in trust) until, at the earliest, after the consummation of a business combination.
 
Since we have not yet selected a target business with which to complete a business combination, we are unable to currently ascertain the merits or risks of the industry or business in which we may ultimately operate.
 
Although we have focused our efforts on businesses with primary operations in India, we are not limited to any particular industry or type of business. Accordingly, there is no current basis for you to evaluate the possible merits or risks of the particular industry in which we may ultimately operate or the target business that we may ultimately acquire. To the extent we complete a business combination with a financially unstable company or an entity in its development stage, we may be affected by numerous risks inherent in the business operations of those entities. Although our management will endeavor to evaluate the risks inherent in a particular industry or target business operating in India, we cannot assure you that we will properly ascertain or assess all of the significant risk factors. We also cannot assure you that an investment in our securities will not ultimately
 
-12-

prove to be less favorable to investors than a direct investment, if an opportunity were available, in a target business.
 
We may not be able to consummate a business combination within the required time frame, in which case, we would be forced to liquidate.
 
We must complete a business combination with a fair market value of at least 80% of our net assets (excluding the deferred underwriters’ discount and representative’s non-accountable expense allowance held in the trust account for) at the time of acquisition by January 20, 2008 (or by May 20, 2008 if a letter of intent, agreement in principle or a definitive agreement has been executed by January 20, 2008 and the business combination relating thereto has not yet been consummated). We may not be able to find suitable target businesses within the required time frame. In addition, our negotiating position and our ability to conduct adequate due diligence on any potential target may be reduced as we approach the deadline for the consummation of a business combination. If a letter of intent, agreement in principle or definitive agreement for a business combination has not been executed prior to November 20, 2007, which is two months before the initial deadline for a business combination, our board will, prior to January 20, 2008, convene, adopt and recommend to our stockholders a plan of dissolution and distribution and on such date file a proxy statement with the SEC seeking stockholder approval for such plan. If, however, a letter of intent, agreement in principle or definitive agreement for a business combination has been executed prior to January 20, 2008, we will abandon our plan of dissolution and distribution and seek the consummation of that business combination. If a proxy statement seeking the approval of our stockholders for that business combination has not been filed prior to May 20, 2008, our board will, prior to such date, convene, adopt and recommend to our stockholders a plan of dissolution and distribution, and on such date file a proxy statement with the SEC seeking stockholder approval for such plan.
 
If we do not consummate a business combination and dissolve, payments from the trust account to our public stockholders may be delayed.
 
If a letter of intent, agreement in principle or definitive agreement for a business combination has not been executed prior to November 20, 2007, which is two months before the initial deadline for a business combination, our board will, prior to January 20, 2008, convene, adopt and recommend to our stockholders a plan of dissolution and distribution and on such date file a proxy statement with the SEC seeking stockholder approval for such plan. If, however, a letter of intent, agreement in principle or definitive agreement for a business combination has been executed prior to January 20, 2008, we will abandon our plan of dissolution and distribution and seek the consummation of that business combination. If a proxy statement seeking the approval of our stockholders for that business combination has not been filed prior to May 20, 2008, our board will, prior to such date, convene, adopt and recommend to our stockholders a plan of dissolution and distribution and on such date file a proxy statement with the SEC seeking stockholder approval for such plan. We currently believe that any plan of dissolution and liquidation subsequent to the expiration of the January and May, 2008 deadlines would proceed in approximately the following manner:
 
•  
our board will, prior to such date, convene, adopt and recommend to our stockholders a plan of dissolution and distribution, and on such date file a proxy statement with the SEC seeking stockholder approval for such plan;
 
•  
upon such deadline, we would file our preliminary proxy statement with the SEC;
 
•  
if the SEC does not review the preliminary proxy statement, then, 10 days following the passing of such deadline, we will mail the proxy statements to our stockholders, and 30
 
-13-

 
days following the passing of such deadline we will convene a meeting of our stockholders, at which time they will either approve or reject our plan of dissolution and liquidation; and
 
•  
if the SEC does review the preliminary proxy statement, we currently estimate that we will receive its comments 30 days following the passing of such deadline. We will mail the proxy statements to our stockholders following the conclusion of the comment and review process (the length of which we cannot predict with any certainty, and which may be substantial) and we will convene a meeting of our stockholders at which they will either approve or reject our plan of dissolution and liquidation.
 
In the event we seek stockholder approval for a plan of dissolution and liquidation and do not obtain such approval, we will nonetheless continue to pursue stockholder approval for our dissolution. The funds held in our trust account may not be distributed except upon our dissolution and, unless and until such approval is obtained from our stockholders, the funds held in our trust account will not be released. Consequently, holders of a majority of our outstanding stock must approve our dissolution in order to receive the funds held in our trust account and the funds will not be available for any other corporate purpose.
 
These procedures, or a vote to reject any plan of dissolution and liquidation by our stockholders, may result in substantial delays in the liquidation of our trust account to our public stockholders as part of our plan of dissolution and liquidation.
 
We do not believe that our anticipated principal activities will subject us to the Investment Company Act of 1940. To this end, the proceeds held in trust may only be invested by the trustee in Treasury Bills issued by the United States with maturity dates of 180 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 promulgated under the Investment Company Act of 1940. By restricting the investment of the proceeds to these instruments, we intend to avoid being deemed an investment company within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940. Our securities are not intended for persons who are seeking a return on investments in government securities. The trust account and the purchase of government securities for the trust account is intended as a holding place for funds pending the earlier to occur of either: (i) the consummation of a business combination, or (ii) our liquidation and distribution of the funds held in this trust account to our public stockholders as part of our plan of dissolution and liquidation. Notwithstanding our belief that we are not required to comply with the requirements of such act, in the event that the stockholders do not approve a plan of dissolution and liquidation and the funds remain in the trust account for an indeterminable amount of time, we may be considered to be an investment company and thus required to comply with such act. If we were deemed to be subject to the act, compliance with these additional regulatory burdens would require additional expense that we have not allotted for.
 
If we are forced to liquidate before a business combination, our public stockholders will receive less than $8.00 per share upon distribution of the funds held in the trust account and our warrants will expire worthless.
 
If we are unable to complete a business combination and are forced to liquidate our assets, the per-share liquidation will be less than $8.00 because of the expenses related to the initial public offering, our general and administrative expenses and the anticipated costs of seeking a business combination. Furthermore, the warrants will expire worthless if we liquidate before the completion of a business combination.
 
-14-

You will not be entitled to protections normally afforded to investors in blank check companies.
 
Since the net proceeds of the initial public offering and the private placement warrants are intended to be used to complete a business combination with a target business that has not been identified, we may be deemed to be a blank check company under the United States securities laws. However, since (i) our securities are listed on the American Stock Exchange (ii) we have net tangible assets in excess of $5,000,000 and (iii) have filed a Current Report on Form 8-K with the SEC upon the consummation of the initial public offering including an audited balance sheet demonstrating this fact, we are exempt from rules promulgated by the SEC to protect investors of blank check companies such as Rule 419. Accordingly, investors will not be afforded the benefits or protections of those rules. Because we are not subject to Rule 419, our units are tradeable and we will have a longer period of time to complete a business combination in certain circumstances than we would if we were subject to such rules.
 
Under Delaware law, the requirements and restrictions contained in our certificate of incorporation may be amended, which could reduce or eliminate the protection afforded to our stockholders by such requirements and restrictions.
 
Our certificate of incorporation contains certain requirements and restrictions that will apply to us until the consummation of a business combination. Specifically, our certificate of incorporation provides, among other things, that:
 
•  
prior to the consummation of a business combination, we will submit such business combination to our stockholders for approval;
 
•  
we may consummate the business combination only if approved by a majority of our stockholders and public stockholders owning less than 20% of the shares sold in the initial public offering exercise their conversion rights;
 
•  
if a business combination is approved and consummated, public stockholders who voted against the business combination and exercised their conversion rights will receive their pro rata share of the trust account; and
 
•  
if a business combination is not consummated or a letter of intent, an agreement in principle or a definitive agreement is not signed within the time periods specified in the certificate of incorporation, then we will be dissolved and distribute to all of our public stockholders their pro rata share of the trust account and any remaining net assets.
 
Under Delaware law, the foregoing requirements and restrictions may be amended if our Board of Directors adopts a resolution declaring the advisability of an amendment which is then approved by a majority of our stockholders of our outstanding shares. Such an amendment could reduce or eliminate the protection that such requirements and restrictions afford to our stockholders. However, pursuant to our Articles of Incorporation, neither we nor the Board of Directors will propose or seek stockholder approval of any amendment of these provisions.
 
Because there are numerous companies with a business plan similar to ours seeking to effectuate a business combination, it may be more difficult for us to do so.
 
Based on publicly available information, from August 2003 through December 2006, approximately 78 similarly structured blank check companies have completed initial public offerings,
 
-15-

including three with a specific focus on Indian target businesses, and numerous others have filed registration statements. Of these companies, only 23 companies have consummated a business combination, while 21 other companies have announced that they have entered into definitive agreements or letters of intent with respect to potential business combinations, but have not yet consummated such business combinations. Accordingly, there are approximately 34 blank check companies with more than $2.5 billion in trust, and an additional 45 blank check companies that have filed registration statements with potentially $3.7 billion to be placed in trust.  While some of these companies have specific industries in which they must identify a potential target business, a number of these companies may consummate a business combination in any industry and/or geographic location they choose. As a result, we may be subject to competition from these and other companies seeking to consummate a business combination within any of our target sectors, which, in turn, will result in an increased demand for privately-held companies in these industries. Because of this competition, we cannot assure you that we will be able to effectuate a business combination within the required time period. Further, because only 44 of such companies have either consummated a business combination or entered into a definitive agreement for a business combination, it may indicate that there are fewer attractive target businesses available to such entities or that many privately-held target businesses are not inclined to enter into these types of transactions with publicly-held blank check companies like ours. We cannot assure you that we will be able to successfully compete for an attractive business combination. Additionally, because of this competition, we cannot assure you that we will be able to effectuate a business combination within the prescribed time period. If we are unable to consummate a business combination within the prescribed time period, we will be forced to liquidate.
 
We expect to encounter intense competition from other entities having a business objective similar to ours, including venture capital funds, leveraged buyout funds, operating businesses and other entities and individuals, both foreign and domestic, competing for acquisitions. Many of these entities are well established and have extensive experience in identifying and effecting business combinations directly or through affiliates. Many of these competitors possess greater technical, human and other resources than we do and our financial resources will be relatively limited when contrasted with those of many of these competitors. While we believe that there are numerous potential target businesses that we could acquire with the amount currently held in trust, together with additional financing if available, our ability to compete in acquiring certain sizable target businesses will be limited by our available financial resources. This inherent competitive limitation gives others an advantage in pursuing the acquisition of certain target businesses. Further:
 
•  
our obligation to seek stockholder approval of a business combination may delay the consummation of a transaction;
 
•  
our obligation to convert our shares of common stock into cash in certain instances may reduce the resources available for a business combination; and
 
•  
our outstanding warrants and the future dilution they potentially represent may not be viewed favorably by certain target businesses.
 
Any of these factors may place us at a competitive disadvantage in successfully negotiating a business combination.
 
-16-

We will be partially dependent upon interest earned on the trust account to fund our search for a target company and consummation of a business combination.
 
We are dependent upon sufficient interest being earned on the proceeds held in the trust account to provide us with the working capital we need to search for a target company and consummate a business combination. While we are permitted to utilize up to a maximum of $1,975,000, for such purpose, if interest rates were to decline substantially, we may not have sufficient funds available to complete a business combination. If we do not have sufficient proceeds available to fund our expenses, we may be forced to obtain additional financing, either from our directors and officers or from third parties. We may not be able to obtain additional financing, and our existing stockholders are not obligated to provide any additional financing. If we do not have sufficient proceeds and cannot find additional financing, we may be forced to liquidate prior to consummating a business combination.
 
A significant portion of working capital could be expended in pursuing acquisitions that are not consummated.
 
It is anticipated that the investigation of each specific target business and the negotiation, drafting, and execution of relevant agreements, disclosure documents, and other instruments will require substantial time and attention and substantial costs for accountants, attorneys and others. In addition, we may opt to make down payments or pay exclusivity or similar fees in connection with structuring and negotiating a business combination. If a decision is made not to complete a specific business combination, the costs incurred up to that point in connection with the abandoned transaction, potentially including down payments or exclusivity or similar fees, would not be recoverable. Furthermore, even if an agreement is reached relating to a specific target business, we may fail to consummate the transaction for any number of reasons, including those beyond our control such as that more than approximately 19.99% of our public stockholders vote against the transaction even though a majority of our public stockholders approve the transaction. Any such event will result in a loss to us of the related costs incurred, which could adversely affect subsequent attempts to locate and acquire or merge with another business.
 
If third parties bring claims against us, the proceeds held in trust could be reduced and the per-share liquidation price received by stockholders will be less than $7.82 per share.
 
Our placing of funds in trust may not protect those funds from third party claims against us. Although we will seek to have all vendors and service providers we engage and prospective target businesses we negotiate with, execute agreements with us waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies held in the trust account for the benefit of our public stockholders, there is no guarantee that they will execute such agreements. Nor is there any guarantee that, even if such entities execute such agreements with us, they will not seek recourse against the trust account. Accordingly, the proceeds held in trust could be subject to claims which could take priority over those of our public stockholders. If we liquidate before the completion of a business combination and distribute the proceeds held in trust to our public stockholders, F. Jacob Cherian and Suhel Kanuga have severally agreed, pursuant to written agreements with us and the representative of the underwriters, that they will be personally liable to ensure that the proceeds in the trust account are not reduced by vendors, service providers or prospective target businesses that are owed money by us for services rendered or contracted for or products sold to us. However, we cannot assure you that they will be able to satisfy those obligations nor can we assure you that the per-share distribution from the trust account will not be less than $7.82, plus interest, due to such claims.
 
-17-

Additionally, if we are forced to file a bankruptcy case or an involuntary bankruptcy case is filed against us that is not dismissed, the funds held in our trust account will be subject to applicable bankruptcy law, and may be included in our bankruptcy estate and subject to claims of third parties with priority over the claims of our public stockholders. To the extent bankruptcy claims deplete the trust account, we cannot assure you we will be able to return to our public stockholders at least $7.82 per share.
 
Our stockholders may be held liable for claims by third parties against us to the extent of distributions received by them.
 
If a letter of intent, agreement in principle or definitive agreement for a business combination has not been executed prior to November 20, 2007, which is two months before the initial deadline for a business combination, our board will, prior to January 20, 2008, convene, adopt and recommend to our stockholders a plan of dissolution and distribution and on such date file a proxy statement with the SEC seeking stockholder approval for such plan. If, however, a letter of intent, agreement in principle or definitive agreement for a business combination has been executed prior to January 20, 2008, we will abandon our plan of dissolution and distribution and seek the consummation of that business combination. If a proxy statement seeking the approval of our stockholders for that business combination has not been filed prior to May 20, 2008, our board will, prior to such date, convene, adopt and recommend to our stockholders a plan of dissolution and distribution, and on such date file a proxy statement with the SEC seeking stockholder approval for such plan. Under Sections 280 through 282 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, stockholders may be held liable for claims by third parties against a corporation to the extent of distributions received by them in a dissolution. If the corporation complies with certain procedures intended to ensure that it makes reasonable provision for all claims against it, including a 60-day notice period during which any third-party claims can be brought against the corporation, a 90-day period during which the corporation may reject any claims brought, and an additional 150-day waiting period before any liquidating distributions are made to stockholders, any liability of stockholders with respect to a liquidating distribution is limited to the lesser of such stockholder’s pro rata share of the claim or the amount distributed to the stockholder, and any liability of the stockholder would be barred after the third anniversary of the dissolution. However, it is our intention to make liquidating distributions to our stockholders as soon as reasonably possible after dissolution and, therefore, we do not intend to comply with those procedures. As such, our stockholders could potentially be liable for any claims to the extent of distributions received by them in a dissolution and any liability of our stockholders may extend beyond the third anniversary of such dissolution. Accordingly, we cannot assure you that third parties will not seek to recover from our stockholders amounts owed to them by us.
 
Failure to maintain a current prospectus relating to the common stock underlying our warrants may deprive our warrants of any value and the market for our warrants may be limited.
 
No warrants will be exercisable unless at the time of exercise a prospectus relating to common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants is current and the common stock has been registered or qualified or deemed to be exempt under the securities laws of the state of residence of the holder of our warrants. Under the terms of a warrant agreement between American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as warrant agent, and us, we have agreed to meet these conditions and to use our best efforts to maintain a current prospectus relating to common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants until the expiration of the warrants. However, we cannot assure you that we will be able to do so. The warrants may be deprived of any value and the market for the warrants may be limited if the prospectus relating to the common stock issuable upon the exercise of the warrants is not current or if the common stock is not qualified or exempt from qualification in the jurisdictions in which the holders of the warrants reside.
 
-18-

The ability of our stockholders to exercise their conversion rights may not allow us to effectuate the most desirable business combination.
 
At the time we seek stockholder approval of any business combination, we will offer each public stockholder the right to have such stockholder’s shares of common stock converted to cash if the stockholder so elects and votes against the business combination and the business combination is approved and completed. Accordingly, if our business combination requires us to use substantially all of our cash to pay the purchase price, because we will not know how many stockholders may exercise such conversion rights, we may either need to reserve part of the trust account for possible payment upon such conversion, or we may need to arrange third-party financing to help fund our business combination in case a larger percentage of stockholders exercise their conversion rights than we expected.  Therefore, we may not be able to consummate a business combination that requires us to use all of the funds held in the trust account as part of the purchase price, or we may end up having a leverage ratio that is not optimal for our business combination. This may limit our ability to effectuate the most attractive business combination available to us.
 
Our outstanding warrants may have an adverse effect on the market price of common stock and make it more difficult to effect a business combination.
 
In connection with the initial public offering, as part of the units, we issued warrants to purchase 7,250,000 shares of common stock. Additionally, prior to the initial public offering, we privately sold 2,250,000 warrants, at a price of $1.00 per warrant, for an aggregate of $2,250,000 to our existing stockholders, including to our officers, certain of our directors, other persons who owned shares of our common stock prior to such sale, and, in some instances, to their respective affiliates. All of the proceeds we received from the private placement offering were placed in the trust account upon the consummation of the initial public offering. The privately placed warrants are identical to the warrants offered in the initial public offering except that they are subject to lock up agreements restricting their sale until after the completion of a business combination, and they may be exercised on a cashless basis. In addition, the purchasers of the private placement warrants have waived their right to receive distributions upon our liquidation prior to a business combination with respect to the shares of common stock underlying the privately placed warrants.
 
To the extent we issue shares of common stock to effect a business combination, the potential for the issuance of substantial numbers of additional shares upon exercise of these warrants could make us a less attractive acquisition vehicle in the eyes of a target business as such securities, when exercised, will increase the number of issued and outstanding shares of our common stock and reduce the value of the shares issued to complete the business combination. Accordingly, our warrants may make it more difficult to effectuate a business combination or increase the cost of a target business. Additionally, the sale, or even the possibility of sale, of the shares underlying the warrants could have an adverse effect on the market price for our securities or on our ability to obtain future public financing. If and to the extent these warrants are exercised, you may experience dilution to your holdings.
 
We may issue additional shares of our capital stock, including through convertible debt securities, to complete a business combination, which would reduce the equity interest of our stockholders and likely cause a change in control of our ownership.
 
Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation authorizes the issuance of up to 45,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share and 5,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share. Without giving effect to the exercise of outstanding warrants, the exercise of the UPO and the exercise of warrants issuable upon the exercise of the UPO (for an
 
-19-

aggregate of 10,500,000 shares of common stock), there are currently 35,937,500 authorized but unissued shares of our common stock and all of the 5,000 shares of preferred stock available for issuance as of March 23, 2007.  Although we have no commitments to issue any securities, we may issue a substantial number of additional shares of our common stock, or preferred stock, or a combination of both, including through convertible debt securities, to complete a business combination. The issuance of additional shares of our common stock or any number of shares of preferred stock, including upon conversion of any debt securities:
 
•  
may significantly reduce the equity interest of our stockholders;
 
•  
may subordinate the rights of holders of common stock if preferred stock is issued with rights senior to those afforded to our common stockholders;
 
•  
will likely cause a change in control if a substantial number of our shares of common stock is issued, which may affect, among other things, our ability to use our net operating loss carry forwards, if any, and may also result in the resignation or removal of one or more of our present officers and directors; and
 
•  
may adversely affect prevailing market prices for our common stock, warrants or units.
 
We may issue notes or other debt securities, or otherwise incur substantial debt, to complete a business combination, which may adversely affect our leverage and financial condition.
 
Although we have no current commitments to incur any debt, we may choose to incur a substantial amount of debt to finance a business combination. The incurrence of debt could result in:
 
•  
default and foreclosure on our assets if our operating revenues after a business combination were insufficient to pay our debt obligations;
 
•  
acceleration of our obligations to repay the indebtedness even if we have made all principal and interest payments when due if the debt security contains covenants that required the maintenance of certain financial ratios or reserves and any such covenant is breached without a waiver or renegotiation of such covenants;
 
•  
our immediate payment of all principal and accrued interest, if any, if the debt security is payable on demand;
 
•  
our inability to obtain additional financing, if necessary, if the debt security contained covenants restricting our ability to obtain additional financing while such security is outstanding;
 
•  
using a substantial portion of our cash flow to pay principal and interest on our debt, which will reduce the funds available for dividends on our common stock, working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions and other general corporate purposes;
 
•  
limitations on our flexibility in planning for and reacting to changes in our business and in the industry in which we operate;
 
•  
increased vulnerability to adverse changes in general economic, industry and competitive conditions and adverse changes in government regulation; and
 
-20-

•  
other disadvantages compared to our competitors who have less debt.
 
Any of the above listed factors could materially and adversely affect our business and results of operations. Furthermore, if our debt bears interest at floating rates, our interest expense could increase if interest rates rise. If we do not have sufficient earnings to service any debt incurred, we could need to refinance all or part of that debt, sell assets, borrow more money or sell securities, none of which we can guarantee we will be able to do on commercially reasonable terms, or at all.
 
Our current officers and directors may resign upon consummation of a business combination.
 
Upon consummation of a business combination, the role of our founding officers in the target business cannot presently be fully ascertained. While it is possible that one or more of our founding officers will remain in senior management following a business combination, we may employ other personnel following the business combination. If we acquired a target business in an all cash transaction, it would be more likely that our founding officers and certain of our directors would remain with us if they chose to do so. If a business combination were structured as a merger whereby the stockholders of the target company were to control the combined company, following a business combination, it may be less likely that our founding officers would remain with the combined company unless it was negotiated as part of the transaction via the acquisition agreement, an employment agreement or other arrangement. If our founding officers negotiate to be retained post business combination as a condition to any potential business combination, such negotiations may result in a conflict of interest. The ability of such individuals to remain with us after the consummation of a business combination will not be the determining factor in our decision as to whether or not we will proceed with any potential business combination. In making the determination as to whether current management should remain with us following the business combination, we will analyze the experience and skill set of the target business’ management and negotiate as part of the business combination that certain of our founding officers and directors remain if it is believed that it is in the best interests of the combined company post business combination. Although we intend to closely scrutinize any additional individuals we engage after a business combination, we cannot assure you that our assessment of these individuals will prove to be correct.
 
Our officers, directors and special advisors are and may in the future become affiliated with entities engaged in business activities similar to those intended to be conducted by us and, accordingly, may have conflicts of interest in determining to which entity a particular business opportunity should be presented.
 
Our officers, directors and special advisors are, or may in the future become, affiliated with entities, including other blank check companies, engaged in business activities similar to those intended to be conducted by us. Additionally, our directors and special advisors may become aware of business opportunities that may be appropriate for presentation to us as well as the other entities with which they are or may be affiliated. Our directors and special advisors involved in businesses similar to what we may intend to conduct following a business combination may have fiduciary or contractual obligations to present opportunities to those entities first. We cannot assure you that any such conflicts will be resolved in our favor.
 
-21-

Because all of our existing stockholders, including our officers and directors, own shares of our securities that will not participate in liquidation distributions, our officers and directors may have a conflict of interest in determining whether a particular target business is appropriate for a business combination.
 
Our existing stockholders, including our officers and directors, own, in the aggregate, 1,812,500 shares of our common stock and 2,250,000 private placement warrants. The existing stockholders have waived their right to receive distributions (other than with respect to units they purchased in the initial public offering or common stock they purchase in the aftermarket) upon our liquidation prior to a business combination. The shares and warrants owned by our existing stockholders will be worthless if we do not consummate a business combination. The personal and financial interests of our officers and directors may influence their motivation in identifying and selecting a target business and completing a business combination. Consequently, our officers’ and directors’ discretion in identifying and selecting a suitable target business may result in a conflict of interest when determining whether the terms, conditions and timing of a particular business combination are appropriate and in our public stockholders’ best interest.
 
It is probable that we will only be able to complete one business combination, which may cause us to be solely dependent on a single business and a limited number of products or services.
 
The amount held in trust provides us with $57,004,924 as of December 31, 2006 (subject to reduction resulting from stockholders electing to convert their shares into cash), which we may use to complete a business combination. While we may seek to effect a business combination with more than one target business, our initial business acquisition must be with one or more operating businesses whose fair market value, collectively, is at least equal to 80% of our net assets (excluding any deferred fees held in the trust account for the benefit of the underwriters) at the time of such acquisition. We have no limitation on our ability to raise additional funds through the private sale of securities or the incurrence of indebtedness that would enable us to effect a business combination with an operating business having a fair market value in excess of 80% of our net assets at the time of such an acquisition. Since we have no specific business combination under consideration, we have not entered into any such fund raising arrangement and have no current intention of doing so. At the time of our initial business combination, we may not be able to acquire more than one target business because of various factors, including insufficient financing or the difficulties involved in consummating the contemporaneous acquisition of more than one operating company. Therefore, it is probable that we will have the ability to complete a business combination with only a single operating business, which may have only a limited number of products or services. The resulting lack of diversification may:
 
•  
result in our dependency upon the performance of a single or small number of operating businesses;
 
•  
result in our dependency upon the development or market acceptance of a single or limited number of products, processes or services; and
 
•  
subject us to numerous economic, competitive and regulatory developments, any or all of which may have a substantial adverse impact upon the particular industry in which we may operate subsequent to a business combination.
 
In this case, we will not be able to diversify our operations or benefit from the possible spreading of risks or offsetting of losses, unlike other entities that may have the resources to complete several business combinations in different industries or different areas of a single industry so as to
 
-22-

diversify risks and offset losses. Further, the prospects for our success may be entirely dependent upon the future performance of the initial target business or businesses we acquire.
 
Our loss of the services of F. Jacob Cherian and Suhel Kanuga would make it more difficult to find a suitable company for a business combination which makes it more likely that we will be forced to distribute the proceeds of our trust account to our stockholders.
 
Our ability to successfully effect a business combination will be largely dependent upon the efforts of F. Jacob Cherian, our President and Chief Executive Officer and Suhel Kanuga, our Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer, Treasurer and Secretary. We have not entered into an employment agreement with either Mr. Cherian or Mr. Kanuga, nor have we obtained any “key man” life insurance on either of their lives. The loss of Mr. Cherian’s and/or Mr. Kanuga’s services could have a material adverse effect on our ability to successfully achieve our business objectives, including seeking a suitable target business to effect a business combination.
 
If we are deemed to be an investment company, we may be required to institute burdensome compliance requirements and our activities may be restricted, which may make it difficult for us to complete a business combination.
 
We may be deemed to be an investment company, as defined under Sections 3(a)(1)(A) and (C) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, if, prior to the consummation of a business combination, we are viewed as engaging in the business of investing in securities or we own investment securities having a value exceeding 40% of our total assets. If we are deemed to be an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, we may be subject to certain restrictions that may make it difficult for us to complete a business combination, including:
 
•  
restrictions on the nature of our investments; and
 
•  
restrictions on our issuance of securities.
 
In addition, we may have imposed upon us burdensome requirements, including:
 
•  
registration as an investment company;
 
•  
adoption of a specific form of corporate structure; and
 
•  
reporting, record keeping, voting, proxy and disclosure requirements and other rules and regulations.
 
We do not believe that our anticipated activities will subject us to the Investment Company Act of 1940 as the amount held in trust may only be invested by the trust agent in “government securities” with specific maturity dates. By restricting the investment of the trust account to these instruments, we intend to meet the requirements for the exemption provided in Rule 3a-1 promulgated under the Investment Company Act of 1940. If we were deemed to be subject to the act, compliance with these additional regulatory burdens would require additional expense that we have not allotted for.
 
-23-

Our existing stockholders control a substantial interest in us and thus may influence certain actions requiring stockholder vote.
 
Our existing stockholders collectively own 15.2% of our issued and outstanding shares of common stock and warrants. Any exercise of these warrants would increase their ownership percentage. These holdings could allow the existing stockholders to influence the outcome of matters requiring stockholder approval, including the election of directors and approval of significant corporate transactions after completion of our initial business combination.
 
We may be obligated to return the funds raised in our private placement if that transaction was not conducted in compliance with the registration requirements of Section 5 of the Act.
 
The 23 purchasers in our private placement included six persons other than our officers, directors, initial stockholders and their respective affiliates. Although such six persons were accredited investors within the meaning of Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Act, a court may take the position that such private placement was not conducted in accordance with any exemption from the registration requirements of Section 5 of the Act. If our private placement was not conducted in compliance with the registration requirements of Section 5 of the Act, the 23 purchasers in our private placement may have the right to rescind their warrant purchases as a remedy to our failure to register these securities. These rescission rights, if any, may require us to refund up to an aggregate of $2,250,000, plus interest, to such persons, thereby reducing the amount in the trust account available to us to consummate a business combination, or, in the event we do not complete a business combination within the period prescribed by our certificate of incorporation, the amount available to our public stockholders upon our liquidation. Although such persons have waived their respective rescission rights, if any, such waivers may not be enforceable in light of public policy considerations underlying federal and state securities laws.
 
The American Stock Exchange may delist our securities from trading on its exchange in the future, which could limit our investors’ ability to effect transactions in our securities and subject us to additional trading restrictions.
 
Our securities are currently listed on the American Stock Exchange. However, we cannot assure you that our securities will continue to be listed on the American Stock Exchange in the future. In addition, in connection with our initial business combination, if any, it is likely that the American Stock Exchange may require us to file a new listing application and meet its initial listing requirements, as opposed to its more lenient continued listing requirements. We cannot assure you that we will be able to meet those initial listing requirements at that time.
 
If the American Stock Exchange delists our securities from trading on its exchange in the future, we could face significant material adverse consequences, including:
 
•  
a limited availability of market quotations for our securities;
 
•  
a determination that our common stock is a “penny stock” that will require brokers trading in our common stock to adhere to more stringent rules, possibly resulting in a reduced level of trading activity in the secondary trading market for our common stock;
 
•  
a limited amount of news and analyst coverage for our company; and
 
•  
a decreased ability to issue additional securities or obtain additional financing in the future.
 
-24-

If our common stock becomes subject to the SEC’s penny stock rules, broker-dealers may experience difficulty in completing customer transactions and trading activity in our securities may be adversely affected.
 
Our common stock may be subject to the penny stock rules promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or Exchange Act, unless our net tangible assets are greater than $5,000,000 or our common stock has a market price per share greater than $5.00. Under these rules, broker-dealers who recommend such securities to persons other than institutional accredited investors must:
 
•  
make a special written suitability determination for the purchaser;
 
•  
receive the purchaser’s written agreement to a transaction prior to sale;
 
•  
provide the purchaser with risk disclosure documents that identify certain risks associated with investing in “penny stocks” and that describe the market for these “penny stocks,” as well as a purchaser’s legal remedies; and
 
•  
obtain a signed and dated acknowledgment from the purchaser demonstrating that the purchaser has actually received the required risk disclosure document before a transaction in “penny stock” can be completed.
 
If our common stock becomes subject to these rules, broker-dealers may find it difficult to effect customer transactions and trading activity in our securities may be adversely affected. As a result, the market price of our securities may be depressed, and you may find it more difficult to sell our securities.
 
Risks Associated with Companies with Primary Operations in India
 
Political, economic, social and other factors in India may adversely affect our ability to achieve our business objective.
 
Since mid-1991, the Indian government has committed itself to implementing an economic structural reform program with the objective of liberalizing India’s exchange and trade policies, reducing the fiscal deficit, controlling inflation, promoting a sound monetary policy, reforming the financial sector, and placing greater reliance on market mechanisms to direct economic activity. A significant component of the program is the promotion of foreign investment in key areas of the economy and the further development of, and the relaxation of restrictions in, the private sector. These policies have been coupled with the express intention to redirect the government’s central planning function away from the allocation of resources and toward the issuance of specific guidelines. While the government’s policies have resulted in improved economic performance, there can be no assurance that the economic recovery will be sustained. Moreover, there can be no assurance that these economic reforms will persist, and that any newly elected government will continue the program of economic liberalization of previous governments. Any change may adversely affect Indian laws and policies with respect to foreign investment and currency exchange. Such changes in economic policies could negatively affect the general business and economic conditions in India, which could in turn affect us and our ability to achieve our business objective.
 
Religious and border disputes persist in India and remain pressing problems. For example, India has from time to time experienced civil unrest and hostilities with neighboring countries such as Pakistan. The longstanding dispute with Pakistan over the border Indian state of Jammu and Kashmir, a majority of whose population is Muslim, remains unresolved. If the Indian government is unable to
 
-25-

control the violence and disruption associated with these tensions, the results could destabilize the economy and, consequently, adversely affect us and our ability to achieve our business objective.
 
Since early 2003, there have also been military hostilities and civil unrest in Afghanistan, Iraq and other Asian countries. These events could adversely influence the Indian economy and, as a result, negatively affect us and our ability to achieve our business objective.
 
Foreign currency fluctuations could adversely affect our ability to achieve our business objective.
 
Because our business objective is to acquire one or more operating businesses with primary operations in India, changes in the U.S. dollar—Indian rupee exchange rate may affect our ability to achieve such objective. The exchange rate between the Indian rupee and the U.S. dollar has changed substantially in the last two decades and may fluctuate substantially in the future. If the U.S. dollar declines in value against the Indian rupee, any business combination will be more expensive and therefore more difficult to complete. Furthermore, we may incur costs in connection with conversions between U.S. dollars and Indian rupees, which may make it more difficult to consummate a business combination.
 
Exchange controls that exist in India may limit our ability to utilize our cash flow effectively following a business combination.
 
Following a business combination, we will be subject to India’s rules and regulations on currency conversion. In India, the Foreign Exchange Regulation Act, or FERA, regulates the conversion of the Indian rupee into foreign currencies. FERA provisions previously imposed restrictions on locally incorporated companies with foreign equity holdings in excess of 40% known as FERA companies. Following a business combination, we will likely be a FERA company as a result of our ownership structure. However, comprehensive amendments have been made to FERA to add strength to the liberalizations announced in their recent economic policies. Such companies are now permitted to operate in India without any special restrictions, effectively placing them on par with wholly Indian owned companies. In addition, foreign exchange controls have been substantially relaxed. Notwithstanding, the Indian foreign exchange market is not yet fully developed and we cannot assure you that the Indian authorities will not revert back to regulating FERA companies and impose new restrictions on the convertibility of the Rupee. Any future restrictions on currency exchanges may limit our ability to use our cash flow for the distribution of dividends to our stockholders or to fund operations we may have outside of India.
 
Certain sectors of the Indian economy are subject to government regulations that limit foreign ownership, which may adversely affect our ability to achieve our business objective which is to acquire one or more operating businesses with primary operations in India.
 
The Indian government prohibits investments in certain sectors and limits the ownership in certain other sectors. We intend to avoid sectors in which foreign investment is disallowed. This could limit the possible number of acquisitions that are available for investment. The Indian government also regulates investments in certain other sectors (e.g., banking) by periodically reviewing and adjusting the permissible amount of foreign ownership. The management team will evaluate the risk associated with investments in sectors in which ownership is restricted. However, there can be no guarantee that management will be correct in its assessment of political and policy risk associated with investments in general and in particular in sectors that are regulated by the Indian government. Any changes in policy could have an adverse impact on our ability to achieve our
 
-26-

business objective which is to acquire one or more operating businesses with primary operations in India.
 
If the relevant Indian authorities find us or the target business with which we ultimately complete a business combination to be in violation of any existing or future Indian laws or regulations, they would have broad discretion in dealing with such a violation, including, without limitation:
 
•  
levying fines;
 
•  
revoking our business and other licenses; and
 
•  
requiring that we restructure our ownership or operations.
 
Returns on investment in Indian companies may be decreased by withholding and other taxes.
 
Our investments in India will incur tax risk unique to investment in India and in developing economies in general. Income that might otherwise not be subject to withholding of local income tax under normal international conventions may be subject to withholding of Indian income tax. Under treaties with India and under local Indian income tax law, income is generally sourced in India and subject to Indian tax if paid from India. This is true whether or not the services or the earning of the income would normally be considered as from sources outside India in other contexts. Additionally, proof of payment of withholding taxes may be required as part of the remittance procedure. Any withholding taxes paid by us on income from our investments in India may or may not be creditable on our income tax returns.
 
We intend to avail ourselves of income tax treaties with India to seek to minimize any Indian withholding tax or local tax otherwise imposed. However, there is no assurance that the Indian tax authorities will recognize application of such treaties to achieve a minimization of Indian tax. We may also elect to create foreign subsidiaries to effect the business combinations to attempt to limit the potential tax consequences of a business combination.
 
If political relations between the U.S. and India weaken, it could make a target business’ operations less attractive.
 
The relationship between the United States and India may deteriorate over time. Changes in political conditions in India and changes in the state of Indian—U.S. relations are difficult to predict and could adversely affect our future operations or cause potential target businesses to become less attractive. This could lead to a decline in our profitability. Any weakening of relations with India could have a material adverse effect on our operations after a successful completion of a business combination.
 
India has different corporate disclosure, governance and regulatory requirements than those in the United States which may make it more difficult or complex to consummate a business combination.
 
Companies in India are subject to accounting, auditing, regulatory and financial standards and requirements that differ, in some cases significantly, from those applicable to public companies in the United States, which may make it more difficult or complex to consummate a business combination. In particular, the assets and profits appearing on the financial statements of an Indian company may
 
-27-

not reflect its financial position or results of operations in the way they would be reflected had such financial statements been prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, or GAAP. There is substantially less publicly available information about Indian companies than there is about United States companies. Moreover, companies in India are not subject to the same degree of regulation as are United States companies with respect to such matters as insider trading rules, tender offer regulation, stockholder proxy requirements and the timely disclosure of information.
 
Legal principles relating to corporate affairs and the validity of corporate procedures, directors’ fiduciary duties and liabilities and stockholders’ rights for Indian corporations may differ from those that may apply in the U.S., which may make the consummation of a business combination with an Indian company more difficult. We therefore may have more difficulty in achieving our business objective.
 
The requirement that Indian companies provide accounting statements that are in compliance with GAAP may limit the potential number of acquisition targets.
 
To meet the requirements of the United States federal securities laws, in order to seek stockholder approval of a business combination, a proposed target business will be required to have certain financial statements which are prepared in accordance with, or which can be reconciled to GAAP and audited in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Auditing Standards, or GAAS. GAAP and GAAS compliance may limit the potential number of acquisition targets.
 
Because the Indian judiciary will determine the scope and enforcement under Indian law of almost all of our target business’ material agreements, we may be unable to enforce our rights inside and outside of India.
 
Indian law will govern almost all of our target business’ material agreements, some of which may be with Indian governmental agencies. We cannot assure you that the target business or businesses will be able to enforce any of their material agreements or that remedies will be available outside of India. The inability to enforce or obtain a remedy under any of our future agreements may have a material adverse impact on our future operations.
 
Investors may have difficulty enforcing judgments against our management or our target business.
 
After the consummation of a business combination, it is likely that substantially all or a significant portion of our assets will be located outside of the United States and some of our officers and directors may reside outside of the United States. As a result, it may not be possible for investors in the United States to enforce their legal rights, to effect service of process upon our directors or officers or to enforce judgments of United States courts predicated upon civil liabilities and criminal penalties of our directors and officers under federal securities laws. Moreover, we have been advised that India does not have a treaty providing for the reciprocal recognition and enforcement of judgments of courts with the United States.

On July 25, 2006, we completed our initial public offering of 7,250,000 units at a price of $8.00 per unit. We received proceeds of $52,855,000 from our initial public offering, which was net of $3,587,500 in underwriting fees and other expenses paid in cash at the closing and deferred underwriting fees and the representative’s non-accountable expense allowance of $1,557,500. The deferred portion of the underwriting fees and representative’s non-accountable expense allowance is included in additional paid-in capital and will only be paid upon our consummation of a business

combination. Each unit consists of one share of our common stock and one warrant to purchase one share of common stock. Additionally, on June 30, 2006, we sold 2,250,000 warrants, at a price of $1.00 per warrant, for an aggregate purchase price of $2,250,000 to our officers, certain of our directors, other persons who owned shares of our common stock prior to such sale, and, in some instances, to their respective affiliates. The aggregate net proceeds of $56,662,500 from our initial public offering and our private placement offering have been placed in a trust account.  Up to an aggregate of $1,975,000 of the interest accrued on the amounts held in the trust account (net of taxes payable) is available to us to fund a portion of our working capital requirements.  Ladenburg Thalmann & Co. Inc. acted as representative for the underwriters in connection with our initial public offering.
 
Our founders advanced an aggregate of $148,000 to us, which was used to pay a portion of the expenses of the initial public offering including SEC registration fee, NASD filing fee, the non-refundable portion of the American Stock Exchange listing fee, and a portion of the non-accountable expense allowance, legal and audit fees and expenses. The loans were repaid out of the proceeds of the initial offering that was not placed in the trust.

Item 7.
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
 
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and footnotes thereto contained in this report.
 
We were formed on March 15, 2006 to serve as a vehicle to effect a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition or other similar business combination with a currently unidentified operating business.
 
On July 25, 2006, we completed our initial public offering of 7,250,000 units at a price of $8.00 per unit. We received proceeds of $52,855,000 from our initial public offering, which was net of $3,587,500 in underwriting fees and other expenses paid in cash at the closing and deferred underwriting fees and the representative’s non-accountable expense allowance of $1,557,500. The deferred portion of the underwriting fees and representative’s non-accountable expense allowance will be included in additional paid-in capital and will only be paid upon our consummation of a business combination. Each unit consists of one share of our common stock and one warrant. Additionally, on June 30, 2006, we sold 2,250,000 warrants, at a price of $1.00 per warrant, for an aggregate purchase price of $2,250,000 to our officers, certain of our directors, other persons who owned shares of our common stock prior to such sale, and, in some instances, to their respective affiliates. The aggregate net proceeds of $56,662,500 from our initial public offering and our private placement offering have been placed in a trust account.
 
For a description of the proceeds generated in our initial public offering and a discussion of the use of such proceeds, we refer you to Note 1 of the financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
 
Upon the closing of our initial public offering, we sold and issued an option, for $100, to the representative of the underwriters, to purchase up to 500,000 units, at an exercise price of $10.80 per unit. For a description of the representative’s purchase option, we refer you to Note 7 of the financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
 
We believe that we have sufficient available funds to complete our efforts to effect a business combination with an operating business.
 
Results of Operations
 
For the period from inception (March 15, 2006) to December 31, 2006, we had a net loss of $2,338,870 which consisted of interest income on the Trust Fund investment of $1,270,296 and interest on cash and cash equivalents of $11,665, offset by a charge related to the sale of common stock of $2,700,549, general and administrative expenses of $726,282, which includes travel and entertainment expenses of $285,080, professional fees of $170,263, $97,478 related to relocation expenses, $84,667 related to rent and office expenses, $44,770 related to Delaware Franchise tax, and $44,024 related to other operating expenses. The Company has a provision for income taxes of $194,000.
 
Critical Accounting Policies
 
Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 3 to our audited financial statements included elsewhere in this report. We believe the following critical accounting polices involved the most significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our financial statements.
 
-32-

Cash and Cash Equivalents—Cash and cash equivalents are deposits with financial institutions as well as short-term money market instruments with maturities of three months or less when purchased.
 
Concentration of Credit Risk—Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a significant concentration of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents. The Company may maintain deposits in federally insured financial institutions in excess of federally insured limits. However, management believes the Company is not exposed to significant credit risk due to the financial position of the depository institutions in which those deposits are held.
 
Item 7A.
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
 
Market risk is a broad term for the risk of economic loss due to adverse changes in the fair value of a financial instrument. These changes may be the result of various factors, including interest rates, foreign exchange rates, commodity prices and/or equity prices. Our exposure to market risk is limited to interest income sensitivity with respect to the funds placed in the trust account. However, the funds held in our trust account have been invested only in U.S. “government securities,” defined as any Treasury Bill issued by the United States having a maturity of one hundred and eighty days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, so we are not deemed to be an investment company under the Investment Company Act. Thus, we are subject to market risk primarily through the effect of changes in interest rates on government securities. The effect of other changes, such as foreign exchange rates, commodity prices and/or equity prices, does not pose significant market risk to us.

There has not been any change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended December 31, 2006 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

We expect our officers, directors and special advisors will play a key role in identifying and evaluating prospective acquisition candidates, selecting the target business, and structuring, negotiating and consummating its acquisition. We believe that the skills and expertise of these individuals, their collective access to acquisition opportunities and ideas, their contacts, and their transactional expertise should enable us to successfully identify and effect a business combination with a target business in India.
 
Compliance with Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
 
Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our directors and executive officers and persons who own beneficially more than 10% of our common stock to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership of such common stock with the SEC, and to file copies of such reports with us. Based solely upon a review of the copies of such reports filed with us, we believe that during 2006, each of F. Jacob Cherian, Suhel Kanuga, Kishore Mirchandani, Lawrence Burstein, C.P. Krishnan Nair, Gul Asrani and Sarat Sethi did not file his initial statement of beneficial ownership on Form 3 on a timely basis.
 
Director Independence
 
The American Stock Exchange requires that a majority of our board must be composed of “independent directors,” which is defined generally as a person other than an officer or employee of the company or its subsidiaries or any other individual having a relationship, which, in the opinion of the company’s board of directors would interfere with the director’s exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director.
 
-38-

Our board of directors has determined that Larry Burstein, Captain Nair, Gul Asrani and Sarat Sethi, who collectively constitute a majority of our board, meet the general independence criteria set forth in the American Stock Exchange’s listing standards. Our independent directors will have regularly scheduled meetings at which only independent directors are present.
 
Any affiliated transactions will be on terms no less favorable to us than could be obtained from independent parties. Any affiliated transactions must be approved by a majority of our independent and disinterested directors.
 
Audit Committee
 
We have established an audit committee of the board of directors, which will consist of Sarat Sethi, as chairman, C.P. Krishnan Nair and Gul Asrani, each of whom is an independent director for audit committee purposes under the American Stock Exchange’s listing standards. The audit committee’s duties, which are specified in our Audit Committee Charter, include, but are not limited to:
 
•  
appointing, determining the compensation of, and retaining and overseeing the work of, the independent auditors (including resolving disagreements between management and the independent auditors regarding financial reporting).
 
•  
actively engaging in dialogue with the independent auditors with respect to any disclosed relationships or services that may impact their objectivity and independence and taking, or recommending that the Board take, appropriate action to oversee the independence of the independent auditors.
 
•  
annually reviewing the experience and qualifications of the key members of the independent auditors and the independent auditors’ quality control procedures.
 
•  
reviewing and pre-approving all audit services and all permissible non-audit services.
 
•  
establishing procedures for the receipt, retention and treatment of complaints we receive regarding accounting, internal accounting controls, or auditing matters, and the confidential, anonymous submission by employees of concerns regarding questionable accounting or auditing matters.
 
•  
discussing with the auditors the overall scope and plans for their audits including the adequacy of staffing and compensation.
 
•  
discussing with management and the auditors the adequacy and effectiveness of the accounting and financial controls, including our system to monitor and manage business risk, and legal and ethical compliance programs.
 
•  
reviewing and discussing with management and the independent auditors (a) any material financial or non-financial arrangements of ours that do not appear on our financial statements, and (b) any transaction with parties related to us.
 
•  
reviewing the interim financial statements with management and the independent auditors prior to the filing of our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and discussing the results of the quarterly review and any other matters required to be communicated to the Committee by the independent auditors under generally accepted auditing standards.
 
-39-

•  
reviewing with management and the independent auditors the financial statements to be included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K (or the annual report to stockholders if distributed prior to the filing of the Form 10-K), including their judgment about the quality, not just acceptability, of accounting principles, the reasonableness of significant judgments, and the clarity of the disclosures in the financial statements.
 
Financial Experts on Audit Committee
 
The audit committee will at all times be composed exclusively of “independent directors” who are “financially literate” as defined under the American Stock Exchange listing standards. The American Stock Exchange listing standards define “financially literate” as being able to read and understand fundamental financial statements, including a company’s balance sheet, income statement and cash flow statement.
 
In addition, we must certify to the American Stock Exchange that the committee has, and will continue to have, at least one member who has past employment experience in finance or accounting, requisite professional certification in accounting, or other comparable experience or background that results in the individual’s financial sophistication. Our board of directors has determined that Sarat Sethi satisfies the American Stock Exchange’s definition of financial sophistication and also qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert,” as defined under rules and regulations of the SEC.
 
Nominating Committee
 
We have established a nominating committee of the board of directors, which will consist of Sarat Sethi, as chairman, C.P. Krishnan Nair and Gul Asrani, each of whom is an independent director under the American Stock Exchange’s listing standards. The nominating committee is responsible for overseeing the selection of persons to be nominated to serve on our board of directors. The nominating committee considers persons identified by its members, management, shareholders, investment bankers and others.
 
Guidelines for Selecting Director Nominees
 
The guidelines for selecting nominees, which are specified in the Nominating Committee Charter, generally provide that persons to be nominated should be actively engaged in business endeavors, have an understanding of financial statements, corporate budgeting and capital structure, be familiar with the requirements of a publicly traded company, be familiar with industries relevant to our business endeavors, be willing to devote significant time to the oversight duties of the board of directors of a public company, and be able to promote a diversity of views based on the person’s education, experience and professional employment. The nominating committee evaluates each individual in the context of the board as a whole, with the objective of recommending a group of persons that can best implement our business plan, perpetuate our business and represent shareholder interests. The nominating committee may require certain skills or attributes, such as financial or accounting experience, to meet specific board needs that arise from time to time. The nominating committee does not distinguish among nominees recommended by shareholders and other persons.
 
Code of Ethics
 
We have adopted a code of ethics that applies to all of our executive officers, directors and employees. The code of ethics codifies the business and ethical principles that govern all aspects of our business.
 
-40-

Conflicts of Interest
 
Potential investors should also be aware of the following potential conflicts of interest:
 
•  
In the course of their other business activities, our officers and directors may become aware of investment and business opportunities which may be appropriate for presentation to us as well as the other entities with which they are affiliated. They may have conflicts of interest in determining to which entity a particular business opportunity should be presented.
 
•  
Our officers and directors are now and may in the future become affiliated with entities, including other blank check companies, engaged in business activities similar to those intended to be conducted by us.
 
•  
Our officers and directors own warrants that are subject to lock-up agreements restricting their sale until a business combination is successfully completed. Accordingly, our board may have a conflict of interest in determining whether a particular target business is appropriate to effect a business combination.
 
•  
The personal and financial interests of our directors and officers may influence their motivation in identifying and selecting a target business, and completing a business combination in a timely manner.
 
In general, officers and directors of a corporation incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware are required to present business opportunities to a corporation if:
 
•  
the corporation could financially undertake the opportunity;
 
•  
the opportunity is within the corporation’s line of business; and
 
•  
it would not be fair to the corporation and its stockholders for the opportunity not to be brought to the attention of the corporation.
 
Accordingly, as a result of multiple business affiliations, our officers and directors may have similar legal obligations relating to presenting business opportunities meeting the above-listed criteria to multiple entities. In addition, conflicts of interest may arise when our board evaluates a particular business opportunity with respect to the above-listed criteria. We cannot assure you that any of the above mentioned conflicts will be resolved in our favor.
 
In order to minimize potential conflicts of interest which may arise from multiple corporate affiliations, each of our officers and directors has agreed, until the earlier of a business combination or the distribution of the trust account to the stockholders, or such time as he ceases to be an officer or director, to present to us for our consideration, prior to presentation to any other entity, any suitable business opportunity which may reasonably be required to be presented to us, subject to the pre-existing fiduciary and contractual obligations discussed above.
 
Item 11.
Executive Compensation.
 
None of our officers, directors or special advisors will receive any compensation prior to the consummation of our initial business combination, except for out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with activities on our behalf such as identifying potential target businesses and performing
 
-41-

due diligence on suitable business combinations. There is no limit on the amount of these out-of-pocket expenses and there will be no review of the reasonableness of the expenses by anyone other than our board of directors, which includes persons who may seek reimbursement, or a court of competent jurisdiction if such reimbursement is challenged. Because of the foregoing, we will generally not have the benefit of independent directors examining the propriety incurred on our behalf and subject to reimbursement.
 
Item 12.
Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management and Related Stockholder Matters.
 
The following table sets forth information regarding the beneficial ownership of our common stock as of December 31, 2006 by:
 
•  
each person known by us to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of our outstanding shares of common stock;
 
•  
each of our officers and directors; and
 
•  
all our officers and directors as a group.
 
Unless otherwise indicated, we believe that all persons named in the table have sole voting and investment power with respect to all shares of common stock beneficially owned by them.

Our existing stockholders, collectively, beneficially own approximately 15.2% of the issued and outstanding shares of our common stock. None of our existing stockholders purchased our securities in the initial public offering nor has done so to date. Because of this ownership block held by our existing stockholders, such individuals may be able to effectively exercise control over all matters requiring approval by our stockholders, including the election of directors and approval of significant corporate transactions other than approval of a business combination.
 
All of the shares of our common stock outstanding immediately prior to the initial public offering are being held in escrow with American Stock Transfer & Trust Company as escrow agent, until the earliest of:
 
•  
our liquidation; and
 
•  
six months after the consummation of a liquidation, merger, stock exchange or other similar transaction which results in all of our stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of common stock for cash, securities or other property subsequent to our consummating our initial business combination with a target business.
 
During the escrow period, the holders of the shares will not be able to sell or transfer its shares of common stock (except to a child and/or spouse, or trust established for its benefit), but will retain all other rights as our stockholders, including, without limitation the right to vote their shares of common stock, subject to their agreement to vote all of their shares of common stock owned by them immediately prior to the initial public offering in accordance with the majority of the shares of common stock voted by the public stockholders other than our existing stockholders and the right to receive cash dividends, if declared. If dividends are declared and payable in shares of common stock, such dividends will also be placed in escrow. If we are unable to effect a business combination and liquidate, none of our existing stockholders will receive any portion of the liquidation proceeds with respect to common stock owned by them immediately prior to the initial public offering.
 
-43-

In addition, in connection with the vote required for our initial business combination, all of our existing stockholders have agreed, pursuant to letter agreements with the Representative, to vote the shares of common stock owned and acquired by them prior to the initial public offering, in accordance with the majority of the shares of common stock voted by the public stockholders other than our existing stockholders, including purchasers in our private placement offering.

Does not reflect the resale of approximately 112,703 shares by each of our founders and 21,330 shares by Mr. Burstein for an aggregate of 359,439 shares, as described below.
 
Messrs. Mirchandani, Cherian, Kanuga and Burstein sold an aggregate of 50,850 shares to Venu Krishnan, Indru Kirplani, Chandru Jagwani and Ramesh Hariani prior to the date of the initial public offering.
 
Each of the individuals set forth above has agreed, pursuant to a letter agreement between them and Ladenburg Thalmann & Co., not to sell any of the foregoing securities until the completion of a business combination. In addition, these holders of our common stock outstanding prior to the initial public offering, have agreed to waive their respective right to participate in any liquidation distribution with respect to shares of common stock acquired by them prior to the initial public offering.
 
-44-

Prior to the date of the initial public offering, we privately sold 2,250,000 warrants, at a price of $1.00 per warrant, for an aggregate of $2,250,000 to our existing stockholders, including to our officers, certain of our directors, other persons who owned shares of our common stock prior to such sale, and, in some instances, to their respective affiliates. Certain of our officers, directors, special advisors and their respective affiliates purchased an aggregate of 1,950,000 warrants at a price of $1.00 per warrant in the private placement. The 23 purchasers in our private placement included six persons other than our officers, directors, initial stockholders and their respective affiliates. Although such six persons were accredited investors within the meaning of Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Act, a court may take the position that such private placement was not conducted in accordance with any exemption from the registration requirements of Section 5 of the Act.
 
All of the proceeds we received from the sale of these private placement warrants, together with the monies received from our sale of units in the initial public offering, were placed in the trust account upon the consummation of the initial public offering and are intended to be used to consummate a business combination. The privately placed warrants are identical to the warrants offered in the initial public offering except that they are subject to lock up agreements restricting their sale until after the completion of a business combination, and they may be exercised on a cashless basis. In addition, the purchasers of the private placement warrants have waived their right to receive distributions upon our liquidation prior to a business combination with respect to the shares of common stock underlying the privately placed warrants.
 
In connection with our sale of warrants, our founders and Mr. Burstein resold 359,439 shares of common stock, at a price of $0.01 per share, to affiliated and non-affiliated purchasers in the private placement. The resale of 359,439 shares of common stock by Messrs. Mirchandani, Cherian, Kanuga and Burstein occurred concurrently with the sale of the private placement warrants on the basis of 10,000 shares of common stock for each 50,000 warrants purchased by those persons other than Messrs. Mirchandani, Cherian, Kanuga and Burstein. The purpose of this transaction was to encourage investors to participate in our private placement offering. The 359,439 shares of common stock were resold by Messrs. Mirchandani, Cherian, Kanuga and Burstein pursuant to the so-called Section 4(1 1/2) exemption from registration under the Securities Act. Such selling stockholders may be deemed to be underwriters under the Securities Act. A court may take the position that the resale of 60,000 shares of such shares of common stock to persons other than our officers, directors and initial stockholders may not have been conducted in accordance with the registration requirements of Section 5 of the Securities Act affording the purchasers of such shares the right to rescind such shares as a remedy to the failure to register these securities. These rescission rights, if any, may require the selling stockholders to refund up to an aggregate of $600, plus interest, to such persons. These privately purchased shares are held in escrow with the other existing stockholders’ shares and subject to the same restrictions. Any resale of these privately purchased shares must be registered under the Securities Act and any such resale cannot occur until six months after the consummation of a business combination.
 
We consider Messrs. Mirchandani, Cherian and Kanuga to be our “promoters” as such term is defined within the rules promulgated by the SEC under the Securities Act.
 
Our founders advanced an aggregate of $148,000 to us, which was used to pay a portion of the expenses of the initial public offering including SEC registration fee, NASD filing fee, the non-refundable portion of the American Stock Exchange listing fee, and a portion of the non-accountable expense allowance, legal and audit fees and expenses. The loans were repaid out of the proceeds of the initial offering that was not placed in the trust.
 
-45-

All ongoing and future transactions between us and any of our officers and directors or their respective affiliates, including loans by our officers and directors, will be on terms believed by us to be no less favorable than are available from unaffiliated third parties. Such transactions or loans, including any forgiveness of loans, will require prior approval in each instance by a majority of our uninterested “independent” directors (to the extent we have any) or the members of our board who do not have an interest in the transaction, in either case who had access, at our expense, to our attorneys or independent legal counsel.

Millennium India Acquisition Company Inc.
Notes to Financial Statements
 
NOTE 1 — DISCUSSION OF THE COMPANY’S ACTIVITIES
 
Organization and activities—Millennium India Acquisition Company Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in Delaware on March 15, 2006 for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition or other similar transaction with a currently unidentified operating business or businesses that have operations primarily in India (a “Target Business”).
 
The registration statement for the Company’s initial public offering (“Offering”) was declared effective on July 19, 2006. On July 25, 2006, the Company consummated the Offering of 7,250,000 Units (the “Units” or a “Unit”) for gross proceeds of approximately $58 million, or $8.00 per Unit. All of the net proceeds of the Offering are intended to be applied toward consummating a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition or other similar business combination with a Target Business (a “Business Combination”). Pending such a Business Combination, substantially all of the proceeds from the Offering will be held in trust. The Company’s management will have broad authority with respect to the application of the interest earned on the monies held in the trust from the net proceeds of the Offering (see Note 4). There is no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully effect a Business Combination.
 
Management has agreed that approximately $7.82 per Unit sold in the Offering will be held in a trust account (“Trust Account”) and invested in permitted United States government securities, of which, $0.21 per Unit will be paid to the underwriters upon the consummation of a Business Combination. The placing of funds in the Trust Account may not protect those funds from third party claims against the Company. Although the Company will seek to have all vendors, prospective target businesses or other entities it engages, execute agreements with the Company waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies held in the Trust Account, there is no guarantee that they will execute such agreements. Up to $1,975,000 in interest earned on the monies held in the Trust Account may be used to pay for due diligence of prospective Target Businesses, legal and accounting fees relating to Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) reporting obligations and working capital to cover miscellaneous expenses, director and officer insurance and reserves.
 
Prior to the consummation of a Business Combination, the Company is obliged to submit such proposed Business Combination for approval by a majority of the stockholders of the Company. Stockholders that vote against such proposed Business Combination are, under certain conditions described below, entitled to convert their shares into a pro-rata distribution from the Trust Account (the “Conversion Right”). The actual per-share conversion price will be equal to the amount in the Trust Fund (inclusive of any interest thereon, and net of income taxes) as of two business days prior to the proposed Business Combination, divided by the number of Units sold in the Offering, or approximately $7.82 per share on July 25, 2006. The Company’s stockholders prior to the Offering (“Initial Stockholders”), have agreed to vote their 1,812,500 founding shares of common stock in accordance with the vote of the majority in interest of all other stockholders of the Company (“Public Stockholders”) with respect to any Business Combination. In the event that holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock vote for the approval of the proposed Business Combination and that holders owning 20% or more of the outstanding common stock do not exercise their Conversion Rights, the Business Combination may then be consummated.
 
If the Company does not execute a letter of intent, agreement in principle or definitive agreement for a Business Combination prior to 16 months from the date of the Offering, the Company’s board of directors will, prior to such date, convene, adopt and recommend to their

stockholders a plan of dissolution and distribution and on such date file a proxy statement with the SEC seeking stockholder approval for such plan. If, however, a letter of intent, agreement in principle or definitive agreement for a Business Combination has been executed prior to 18 months from the date of the Offering, the Company will abandon their plan of dissolution and distribution and seek the consummation of that Business Combination. If a proxy statement seeking the approval of the Company’s stockholders for that Business Combination has not been filed prior to 22 months from the date of the Offering, the Company’s board of directors will, prior to such date, convene, adopt and recommend to their stockholders a plan of dissolution and distribution and on such date file a proxy statement with the SEC seeking stockholder approval for such plan. In the event there is no Business Combination within the 18 and 24-month deadlines (the “Target Business Combination Period”), the Company will dissolve and distribute to its Public Stockholders, in proportion to their respective equity interests, the amount held in the Trust Account, and any remaining net assets, after the distribution of the Trust Account. In the event of liquidation, it is likely that the per share value of the residual assets remaining available for distribution (including Trust Account assets) will be less than the initial public offering price per share in the Offering. Pursuant to letter agreements with the Company and the representative of the underwriters (the “Representative”) in the Offering, the Initial Stockholders have waived their right to receive distributions with respect to their existing shares in the event of the Company’s liquidation.
 
With respect to a Business Combination which is approved and consummated, any Public Stockholder who voted against the Business Combination may exercise their Conversion Right and their common shares would be cancelled and returned to the status of authorized but unissued shares. The per share conversion price will equal the amount in the Trust Account, calculated as of two business days prior to the consummation of the proposed Business Combination, divided by the number of shares of common stock held by Public Stockholders at the consummation of the Offering. Accordingly, Public Stockholders holding 19.99% of the aggregate number of shares owned by all Public Stockholders may seek conversion of their shares in the event of a Business Combination. Such Public Stockholders are entitled to receive their per share interest in the Trust Account computed without regard to the shares held by Initial Stockholders.
 
NOTE 2 — OFFERING
 
In the Offering, effective July 19, 2006 (closed on July 25, 2006), the Company sold to the public 7,250,000 Units (the “Units”) at a price of $8.00 per Unit. Proceeds from the Offering, totaled approximately $52.9 million, which was net of approximately $3.5 million in underwriting and other Offering expenses paid in cash at the closing and approximately $1.6 million in deferred underwriting fees (see Note 4). Each Unit consists of one share of the Company’s common stock and one warrant (a “Public Warrant”) (see Note 7).
 
The Company also sold to the Representative, for an aggregate of $100, an option (the “Unit Purchase Option” or “UPO”) to purchase up to a total of 500,000 additional Units (see Note 7).
 
NOTE 3 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents—Cash and cash equivalents are deposits with financial institutions as well as short-term money market instruments with maturities of three months or less when purchased.
 
F-7

Millennium India Acquisition Company Inc.
Notes to Financial Statements
 
Concentration of Credit Risk—Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a significant concentration of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents. The Company may maintain deposits in federally insured financial institutions in excess of federally insured limits. However, management believes the Company is not exposed to significant credit risk due to the financial position of the depository institutions in which those deposits are held.
 
Net Loss Per Share—Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing income (loss) by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share are computed similar to basic earnings per share except that the weighted average shares outstanding are increased to include additional shares from the assumed exercise of warrants, if dilutive. The number of additional shares is calculated by assuming that the outstanding warrants were exercised and that the proceeds from such exercises were used to acquire shares of common stock at the average market price during the reporting period.
 
The Company experienced a loss for the period from inception (March 15, 2006) to December 31, 2006. Accordingly, the effect of the assumed exercise of all 9,500,000 outstanding warrants to purchase common stock and the outstanding UPO to purchase 500,000 units would be anti-dilutive and has been excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share.
 
Fair Value of Financial Instruments—The fair values of the Company’s assets and liabilities that qualify as financial instruments under the Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (“SFAS”) No. 107 “Disclosure About Fair Value of Financial Instruments” approximate their carrying amounts presented in the balance sheet at December 31, 2006.
 
Use of Estimates—The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
Income Taxes—The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with SFAS No. 109 “Accounting for Income Taxes”. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed for differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities that will result in future taxable or deductible amounts and are based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred income tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
 
New Accounting Pronouncements— In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Interpretation No. 48 (“FIN 48”), “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109.”  FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in a company’s financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in an income tax return.  FIN 48 also provides guidance in derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosures and transition.  FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006.  The Company does not believe the adoption of FIN 48 will have a material impact, if any, on its financial statements.

Notes to Financial Statements
 
In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement No. 157 Fair Value Measurements (“SFAS No. 157).  This Statement provides guidance for using fair value to measure assets and liabilities. The standard also responds to investors requests for expanded information about the extent to which companies measure assets and liabilities at fair value, the information used to measure fair value, and the effect of fair value measurements on earnings. SFAS No. 157 is effective for financial statements issued in fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and to interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company does not believe the adoption of SFAS No. 157 will have a material impact, if any, on its financial statements.
 
In February 2007, the FASB issued Statement No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities” (“SFAS No. 159”).  SFAS No. 159 provides a “Fair Value Option” under which a company may irrevocably elect fair value as the initial and subsequent measurement attribute for certain financial assets and liabilities.  SFAS No. 159 will be available on a contract-by-contract basis with changes in fair value recognized in earnings as those changes occur.  SFAS No. 159 is effective for fiscal years after November 15, 2007.  SFAS No. 159 also allows early adoption provided that the entity also adopts the requirements of SFAS No. 157.  The Company does not believe the adoption of SFAS No. 159 will have a material impact, if any, on its financial statements.
 
NOTE 4 — COMMITMENTS
 
  Administrative Fees
 
The Company is permitted to utilize up to $2,025,000, which includes $50,000 transferred to the Company at closing on July 25, 2006 and $1,975,000 of the interest earned upon monies in the Trust Account for working capital purposes. The working capital will be used to pay for director and officer liability insurance premiums and general and administrative services, including office space, utilities and secretarial support, with the balance being held in reserve for other expenses, such as relocation of their full-time officers to India, due diligence, legal, accounting, and other fees and expenses for structuring and negotiating Business Combinations, and deposits, down payments and/or funding of “no shop” provisions in connection with Business Combinations as well as for reimbursement of any out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Company’s officers, directors or special advisors in connection with activities undertaken on the Company’s behalf.
 
  Underwriting Agreement
 
In connection with the Offering, the Company entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with the Representative in the Offering.
 
Pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, the Company is obligated to the underwriters for certain fees and expenses related to the Offering, including an underwriting discount of $3,480,000. The Company and the Representative have agreed that payment of $725,000, of the underwriting discount will be deferred until consummation of the Business Combination. The Company also agreed to pay the Representative a non-accountable expense allowance of $870,000, or 1.50% of the gross proceeds of the Offering.
 
The Company and the Representative have agreed that payment of $832,500 of the non-accountable expense allowance will be deferred until consummation of the Business Combination.

In addition, in accordance with the terms of the Underwriting Agreement, the Company has engaged the Representative, on a non-exclusive basis, to act as its agent for the solicitation of the exercise of the Company’s Public Warrants. In consideration for solicitation services, the Company will pay the underwriters a commission equal to 6% of the exercise price for each Warrant exercised more than one year after the date of the Offering if the exercise is solicited by the underwriters.
 
NOTE 5 — INCOME TAXES
 
Provision for income taxes consists of:

(March 15, 2006)
to
December 31, 2006
 
Current – Federal
  $
194,000
 

The Company’s effective tax rate approximates the federal statutory rate.
 
The provision for income taxes differs from the amount computed by applying the U.S. statutory income tax rates for federal to loss before provision for income taxes for the reasons set forth below for the year ended December 31, 2006.
 
Statutory federal income tax rate      (34)%  
Non-deductible expenses and other      43%  
Effective tax rate      9%  
 
 The Company’s effective tax rate differs from the federal statutory rate as a result of non-deductible expenses and other deductions comprising primarily of a charge related to the sale of the Company’s common stock included on the accompanying statement of operations that will never be deductible from the Company’s computation of taxable income.
 
Included in general and administrative expenses for the period from inception (March 15, 2006) to December 31, 2006 are $44,770 of expenses related to Delaware franchise tax.
 
NOTE 6 — CAPITAL STOCK
 
During May 2006, the Company amended and restated its Certificate of Incorporation to authorize the issuance of an additional 10,000,000 shares of common stock for an aggregate authorization of 45,000,000 shares of common stock.
 
On June 5, 2006, the Company declared a stock dividend of 0.048951 shares for 1 share of common stock to stockholders of record on June 5, 2006. On June 16, 2006, the Company declared a reverse stock split of 0.708333 shares for 1 share of common stock to be effective on June 16, 2006 to stockholders of record on June 16, 2006. On July 6, 2006, the Company declared a stock dividend of 0.211865 shares for 1 share of common stock to stockholders of record on July 6, 2006.

Preferred Stock
 
The Company is authorized to issue 5,000 shares of preferred stock with such designations, voting and other rights and preferences as may be determined from time to time by the Board of Directors.
 
Common Stock
 
In March 2006, the Company’s Initial Stockholders purchased 1,753,496 post stock dividend and reverse stock split shares of the Company’s common stock for an aggregate $25,000.
 
During May 2006, certain of the Initial Stockholders purchased 371,504 post stock dividend and reverse stock split shares of the Company’s common stock for an aggregate $4,000. At the date of sale in May 2006, management determined the fair value of the Company’s common stock to be $7.28 per share. This determination of value was based on management’s evaluation of the value of common stock of similar companies, which had recently completed an initial public offering whose common stock had begun separate trading from the warrants. As a result, the Company recorded a charge of $2,700,549 to the statement of operations for the difference between the fair market value of the common stock sold of $2,704,549 and the $4,000 price paid by the Initial Stockholders in May 2006.
 
On July 5, 2006, certain of the May 2006 Initial Stockholders’ purchase of 371,504 post stock dividend and reverse stock split shares was rescinded in its entirety by mutual agreement of the Company and the Initial Stockholders. At the date of rescission, management re-evaluated the current fair value of the Company’s common stock and determined the fair value to be $7.28 per share as no events had occurred since the date of sale which would provide another indication of value and the Company’s circumstances were substantially the same as in May 2006. Accordingly, on July 5, 2006 the Company recorded the $2,704,549 value of the shares rescinded and reacquired to treasury stock and a $2,700,549 credit to additional paid-in capital based on the difference between fair market value of the common stock rescinded and the $4,000 price paid by the Company for such shares. Upon receipt, such shares were then immediately cancelled by the Company which resulted in the retirement of the treasury stock and a corresponding charge to additional paid-in capital and common stock.
 
On July 20, 2006, certain Initial Stockholders returned an aggregate of 312,500 shares of the Company’s common stock to the Company for cancellation. At the date of return and cancellation, management re-evaluated the current fair value of the Company’s common stock and determined the fair value to be $7.28 per share as no events had occurred which would provide another indication of value and the Company’s circumstances were substantially the same as on July 5, 2006 when the Company performed its last valuation. Accordingly, on July 20, 2006, the Company recorded the $2,275,000 value of the shares contributed to treasury stock and a $2,275,000 corresponding credit to additional paid-in capital. Upon receipt, such shares were then immediately cancelled by the Company which resulted in the retirement of the treasury stock and a corresponding charge to additional paid-in capital and common stock.

NOTE 7 — WARRANTS AND OPTION TO PURCHASE COMMON STOCK
 
Public Warrants
 
Each Public Warrant sold in the Offering will be exercisable for one share of common stock. Except as set forth below, the Public Warrants will entitle the holder to purchase shares at $6.00 per share, subject to adjustment in the event of stock dividends and splits, reclassifications, combinations and similar events for a period commencing on the later of: (a) completion of a Business Combination and (b) July 19, 2007, and ending July 19, 2010. The Company has the ability to redeem the Public Warrants with the prior consent of the Representative, in whole or in part, at a price of $.01 per Public Warrant at any time after the Public Warrants become exercisable, upon a minimum of 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption, and if, and only if, the last sale price of the Company’s common stock equals or exceeds $11.50 per share, for any 20 trading days within a 30 trading day period ending three business days before the Company sent the notice of redemption.
 
Private Warrants
 
On June 30, 2006, the Company sold to certain of the Initial Stockholders and other accredited investors 2,250,000 warrants (“Private Warrants”), for an aggregate purchase price of $2,250,000. All of the proceeds received from these purchases were placed in the Trust Account at the closing of the Offering. The Private Warrants are identical to the Public Warrants in the Offering except that they may be exercised on a cashless basis and the Private Warrants cannot be sold or transferred until after the consummation of a Business Combination. Additionally, such individuals will waive their right to receive distributions in the event of the Company’s liquidation prior to a Business Combination with respect to the shares of common stock underlying such Private Warrants. Based on certain circumstances in this transaction, the Private Warrant holders may have the right to rescind their purchases, which would require the Company to refund up to an aggregate of the purchase price paid for the Private Warrants. Due to the uncertainty related to the rescission rights regarding the Private Warrants, the Company has recorded the proceeds received from the purchase of Private Warrants in the private placement as temporary equity, outside of stockholders’ equity.
 
As the proceeds from the exercise of the Public Warrants and Private Warrants will not be received until after the completion of a Business Combination, the expected proceeds from the exercise will not have any effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations prior to a Business Combination.
 
Unit Purchase Option
 
Upon closing of the Offering, the Company sold and issued the UPO for $100 to the Representative to purchase up to 500,000 Units at an exercise price of $10.80 per Unit. The Units underlying the UPO will be exercisable in whole or in part, solely at the Representative’s discretion, commencing on the consummation of a Business Combination and expiring on the five-year anniversary of the Offering. The Company accounted for the fair value of the UPO, inclusive of the receipt of the $100 cash payment, as an expense of the public offering resulting in a charge directly to stockholders’ equity with an equivalent increase in additional paid-in capital. The fair value of the 500,000 Units underlying the UPO was approximately $1,535,000 ($3.07 per Unit) at the date of sale and issuance, which was determined by the Company using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The fair value of the UPO has been estimated using the following assumptions: (1) expected volatility
 
F-12

Millennium India Acquisition Company Inc.
Notes to Financial Statements
 
of 46.702%, (2) risk-free interest rate of 5.10% and (3) contractual life of 5 years. The expected volatility of approximately 46% was estimated by management based on an evaluation of the historical volatilities of similar public entities which had completed a transaction with an operating company. The UPO may be exercised for cash or on a “cashless” basis, at the holder’s option, such that the holder may use the appreciated value of the UPO (the difference between the exercise price of the UPO and the market price of the securities underlying the Units) to exercise the UPO without the payment of any cash. Each of the Units included in the UPO are identical to the Units to be sold in the Offering, except that the exercise price of the Units will be $10.80 per Unit.
 
Registration Rights - Warrants and UPO
 
In accordance with the Warrant Agreement related to the Public Warrants and the Registration Rights Agreement associated with the Private Warrants (collectively the Public Warrants and Private Warrants are the “Warrants”), the Company is only required to use its best efforts to register the Warrants and the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants and once effective to use its best efforts to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement. The Company is not obligated to deliver securities, and there are no contractual penalties for failure to deliver securities, if a registration statement is not effective at the time of exercise. Additionally, in the event that a registration statement is not effective at the time of exercise, the holder of such Warrants shall not be entitled to exercise. However, with regards to the Private Warrants, the Company may satisfy its obligation by delivering unregistered shares of common stock. In no event (whether in the case of a registration statement not being effective or otherwise) will the Company be required to net cash settle a Warrant exercise. Consequently, the Warrants may expire unexercised and unredeemed. The holders of Warrants do not have the rights or privileges of holders of the Company’s common stock or any voting rights until such holders exercise their respective warrants and receive shares of the Company’s common stock.
 
The Company is only required to use its best efforts to register the UPO and the securities underlying such UPO, and once effective to use its best efforts to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement. The Company has no obligation to net cash settle the exercise of the UPO or the warrants underlying the UPO. The holder of the UPO is not entitled to exercise the UPO or the warrants underlying the UPO unless a registration statement covering the securities underlying the UPO is effective or an exemption from registration is available. If the holder is unable to exercise the UPO or underlying warrants, the UPO or the underlying securities, as applicable, will expire worthless.
