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 (a “Business Combination”) with a currently unidentified operating
business or businesses that have operations primarily in India (a “Target
Business”).
NOTE
2 — SUMMARY
OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Interim
Financial Statements—The accompanying unaudited condensed financial
statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America and the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial
information. Accordingly, the financial statements do not include all
information and notes required by accounting principles generally accepted
in
the United States of America for complete annual financial statements. In the
opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements
reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, considered
necessary for a fair presentation. Interim operating results are not
necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the year ending
December 31, 2007 or for any subsequent period. These unaudited
condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s
audited financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2006
included in its 2006 Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 30,
2007. The audited balance sheet as of December 31, 2006 is derived
from those statements. The period from inception (March 15, 2006) to
March 31, 2006 was audited and reflected in the financial statements of the
Company’s registration statement filed with the SEC on Form S-1/A on May 18,
2006.
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.
Net
Loss Per Share—Basic loss per share is computed by dividing the loss by
the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings
per share is computed similar to basic earnings per share except that the
weighted average shares outstanding is 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 January 1, 2007 to March 31,
2007
and for the period from inception (March 15, 2006) to March 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 have been excluded from
the
calculation of diluted loss per share.

India Acquisition Company Inc.
Notes
to Condensed Financial Statements
Income
Taxes—The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“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.
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.
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 adoption of FIN 48
did
not have an effect on the Company’s balance sheets, statements of operations or
cash flows.
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
3 — INCOME
TAXES
No
provision for state and local income taxes has been made since the Company
was
formed as a vehicle to effect a Business Combination and, as a result, does
not
conduct operations and is not engaged in a trade or business in any
state. The Company records a valuation allowance when it is more
likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not
be
realized. The ultimate realization of the deferred tax assets depends on the
ability to generate sufficient taxable income of the appropriate character
in
the future and in the appropriate taxing jurisdictions. As of March
31, 2007, the Company recorded a valuation allowance of approximately $5,400
as
it is unlikely that some or all of the deferred tax assets will be
realized.

Management’s
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations
|
The
following discussion should be read in conjunction with our condensed 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 our Annual Report on Form 10-K (File number
001-32931) for the year ended December 31, 2006 filed with the SEC on
March 30, 2007 (our “2006 Annual
Report”).
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
our 2006 Annual Report.
We
believe that we have sufficient available funds to complete our efforts to
effect a business combination with an operating business.
Results
of Operations
Net
loss
for the three months ended March 31, 2007 of $20,412 consisted of interest
income on the Trust Fund investment of $760,636 and interest on cash and cash
equivalents of $6,437, offset by general and administrative expenses of
$787,485, which includes professional fees of $594,020, travel and entertainment
expenses of $118,797, rent and office expenses of $39,008, Delaware franchise
tax of $17,800, and $17,860 related to other operating expenses.
Net
loss
for the period from inception (March 15, 2006) to March 31, 2006 of $5,500
consisted of professional fees of $5,500 related to formation and operating
costs.

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.
Item

Controls
and Procedures
|
Our
Chief
Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer evaluated the effectiveness of
our
disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the
Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this
report. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and
Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures
were effective as of March 31, 2007.
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 March
31, 2007 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially
affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Unregistered
Sales of Equity Securities and Use of
Proceeds.
|
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.
