Disclaimer Forward-Looking Statements This presentation contains forward looking statements concerning the projects owned by India Resources Limited. Statements concerning mining reserves and resources may also be deemed to be forward looking statements in that they involve estimates based on specific assumptions. Forward-looking statements are not statements of historical fact and actual events and results may differ materially from those described in the forward looking statements as a result of a variety of risks, uncertainties and other factors. Forward looking statements are based on management’s beliefs, opinions and estimates as of the dates the forward looking statements are made and no obligation is assumed to update forward looking statements if these beliefs, opinions and estimates should change or to reflect other future developments. Data and amounts shown in this presentation relating to capital costs, operating costs and project timelines are internally generated best estimates only. All such information and data is currently under review as part of India Resources Limited’s ongoing development and feasibility studies. Accordingly, India Resources Limited cannot guarantee the accuracy and/or completeness of the figures or data included in the presentation until the feasibility studies are completed. Competent Person’s Statement The information in this report that relates to Exploration Targets, Exploration Results, Mineral Resources or Ore Reserves is based on information compiled by Eoin Rothery, a Competent Person who is a Member of the Australian Institute of Geoscientists. Eoin Rothery is employed by India Resources Ltd on a consultancy basis and is an employee of Thomson Resources Ltd. Eoin Rothery has sufficient experience that is relevant to the style of mineralisation and type of deposit under consideration and to the activity being undertaken to qualify as a Competent Person as defined in the 2012 Edition of the ‘Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves’. Eoin Rothery consents to the inclusion in the report of the matters based on his information in the form and context in which it appears. The information is extracted from the report entitled “Aravalli project - supplementary update” created on 23 July 2014 and is available to view on http://www.asx.com.au/asx/research/companyInfo.do?by=asxCode&asxCode=IRL. The company confirms that it is not aware of any new information or data that materially affects the information included in the original market announcement and, in the case of estimates of Mineral Resources or Ore Reserves, that all material assumptions and technical parameters underpinning the estimates in the relevant market announcement continue to apply and have not materially changed. The Company confirms that the form and context in which the Competent Person’s findings are presented have not been materially modified from the original market announcement. JORC – Exploration Targets The information in this presentation relating to exploration targets should not be misunderstood or misconstrued as an estimate of Mineral Resources or Ore Reserves. Hence the terms Resource(s) or Reserve(s) have not been used in this context. The potential quantity and grade is conceptual in nature, since there has been insufficient work completed to define them beyond exploration targets and that it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the determination of a Mineral Resource.

Surda Operations summary Surda production disruptions Surda mine operation suspended in early September 2014 by HCL

pursuant to a stop work order issued by the Jharkhand State Government, India. HCL applied for a stay on the order in the High Court yet to be granted, and at the same time HCL is pursuing renewal of the Surda mine lease with the Government of Jharkhand. Court decision is expected in the current month.

Permission to transport ore from mine to concentrator was exceeded in December 2013 calendar year causing disruption to MIC production.

Cash flows are reliable to fixed revenue rate and known costs, with the addition of ore from expansion contract and synergies the Surda operations shall become more profitable. Although stoppages create cash flow issues from time to time.

IRL contract is currently valid until March 2017 or until the Surda mine expansion is complete.

IRL-Crown have the preferential right to be granted the ML under Provisions of section 11 of the MMDR 1957 and rule 7C on the mineral concession rules, 1960. Sathuddia (Copper) discovered on RP1/2004, PL application made. Hindoli RP (base metals) application IRL - Exploration target between 95-135mt @ between 2.2 to 4.5% Zn, 0.7-1.8% Pb .Aravalli is a substantial lead-zinc Sedex Deposit similar to Mt Isa. Refer to the IRL’s ASX announcement dated July 23, 2014. Note: the potential quantity and grade is conceptual in nature, that there has been insufficient exploration to estimate a Mineral Resource and that it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the estimation of a Mineral Resource. The target is based on around 75 diamond drill holes drilled by Geological Survey of India and IRL. Further drilling to upgrade the target to a JORC Resource is planned on grant of the ML. The target was derived by 3D modelling of the lodes intersected in the 75 drillholes. Each original GSI block was looked at in turn and grade and tonnage ranges derived from variable projections horizontally and down dip; and comparisons to the historical estimate for each block; as well as allowances for lease boundaries.

Disputed Receivables in India Values are at 31 October 2014 and increasing. If resolved in our favour, they will improve our ongoing cash flow. We may potentially receive the amounts listed below:

* Claims approved by HCL Board $2.2M * Work Stoppage (Sept/Oct) /Fixed cost $2.4M TDS Payable from Govt. of India $0.6M Total $5.2M

* The $4.6M potentially payable by HCL remains subject to negotiation/verification by HCL. Payment is expected in current quarter.

Claims continue to increase due to increase in Copper price as a result of Arbitration wins and interest payments accruing with time. IRL has a number of other claims it will shortly raise with HCL. IRL is also pursuing its claim against HCL regarding its treatment of the rates as though it was inclusive of taxes. 29
