1.2.7 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets.
Provisions are recognized when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefit and the Company will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.
The amount recognized as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. When a provision is measured using the cash flows estimated to settle the present obligation, its carrying amount is the present value of those cash flows (when the effect ofthetimevalueofmoneyismaterial).When some or all of the economic benefits required to settle a provision are expected to be recovered from a third party, a receivable is recognised as an asset if it is virtually certain that reimbursements will be received and the receivable can be measured reliably.
Contingent liabilities
Contingent liabilities are disclosed when there is a possible obligation arising from past events, the existence of which will be confirmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of the Company or a present obligation that arises from past events where it is either not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation ora reliable estimate of the amount cannot be made.
Contingent assets
Contingent assets are disclosed in the Financial Statements by way of notes to accounts when an inflow of economic benefits is probable.
1.2.8 Cash and Cash Equivalents
For the purpose of presentation in the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, deposits held at call with financial institutions, other short-term, highly liquid invest¬ ments with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities in the balance sheet.
1.2.9 Earnings per Share
Basic earnings per share are computed by dividing the net profit after tax attributable to equity shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of Equity Shares outstandingduring the period.
Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing the profit aftertax by the weighted average number of Equity Shares considered for deriving basic earnings pershare and the weighted average number of Equity Shares thatcould have been issued upon conversion of all dilutive potentialEquity Shares.
Potential shares are considered as antidilutive when their conversion to ordinary shares would increase earnings per share or decrease loss per share from continuing operations
1.2.10 Financial Instruments
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instruments.
A. Financial Assets
(i) Classification
The company classifies its financial assets in the following measurement categories:
• those to be measured subsequently at fair value (either through other comprehensive income, or through profit or loss), and
• those measured at amortised cost.
For assets measured at fair value, gains and losses will either be recorded in profit or loss or other comprehensive income. For investments in debt instruments, this will depend on the business model in which the investment is held. For investments in equity instruments, this will depend on whether the company has made an irrevocable election at the time of initial recognition to account for the equity investment atfair value through other comprehensive income.
(ii) Investment in Equity of Associates
The Company records the investments in Associates at cost less impairment loss, if any.
(iii) Financial Assets - Other than investment in associates
Financial assets other than investment in associate comprise of investments in equity (including investments in equity oriented mutual funds) and, trade receivables, cash and cash equivalents and other financial assets.
(iv) Initial recognition and Measurement
At initial recognition, the company measures a financial asset at its fair value and in the case of a financial asset not recorded at fair value through profit or loss, fair value plus transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset.
Transaction costs of financial assets carried at fair value through profit or loss are expensed in profit or loss
(v) Classification and subsequent measurement
The company classifies its financial assets in the following measurement categories:
• Financial assets measured at amortised cost and
• Financial assets measured subsequently at fair value (either through other
comprehensive income, or through profit or loss), and
The classification depends on the entity's business model for managing the financial assets and the contractual cash flow characteristics of the Financial Assets
_ • Financial assets measured at amortized cost:
Financial assets held within a business model whose objective is to hold financial assetsin order to collect contractual cash flows and the contractual terms of the financialasset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principaland interest on the principal amount outstanding are measured at amortizedcost using effective interest rate (EIR)method. The EIR amortization is recognizedas finance income in the statement of profit and loss.
The Company while applying above criteria has classified the following at amortized cost
(a) Trade receivable
(b) Other financial assets
• Financial assets measured at Fair value through other comprehensive income lFVTOCI)
Financial assets that are held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flow and selling financial asset and the contractual terms of financial assets give rise on specified dates to cash flow that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding are subsequently measured at FVTOCI. Fair value movements in financial assets at FVTOCI are recognized in other comprehensive income.
• Financial asset at Fair value through Profit or Loss (FVTPL)
Financial assets are measured at fair value through Profit and loss if it does not meetthe criteria for classification as measured at amortized cost or at fair value throughother comprehensive income. All fair value changes are recognized in the Statement of Profit and loss.
(vi) Investments in Equities and Equity mutual funds Fair Value through Other Comprehensive Income (FVOCI)
All equity investments in scope of Ind AS 109 are measured at fair value. Equity instruments which are held for trading and contingent consideration recognised by an acquirer in a business combination to which Ind AS103 applies are classified as at FVTPL.
For all other equity instruments, the Company may make an irrevocable election to present in other comprehensive income subsequent changes in the fair value. The Company makes such election on an instrument -by-instrument basis. The classification is made on initial recognition and is irrevocable.
Where the management has elected to present fair value changes (gains and losses) on equity investments in other comprehensive income, they are measured at fair value with gains and losses arising from changes in fair value recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in the 'Fair value changes for equity instruments through other comprehensive income'.
There is no subsequent reclassification / recycling of fair value gains and losses to Statement of Profit or Loss even on derecognition / sale of the Investments.However, the Company may transfer the cumulative gain or loss within equity
Dividends from such investments are recognised in profit or loss as other income when the company's right to receive payments isestablished.
Impairment losses (and reversal of impairment losses) on equity investments measured at FVTOCI are not reported separately from other changes in fair value.
Fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL)
Equity instruments held for trading are classified as FTVPL and are measured at fair value with all changes recognised in the Statement of Profit or Loss.
(vii) De-recognition of financial assets
The Company derecognises a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire, or when it transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the asset to another party.
On derecognition of a financial asset in its entirety (except for equity instruments designated as (FVTOCI), the difference between the asset's carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received and receivable is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss
(viii) Impairment of financial assets
Trade receivables under IND AS 109, investments in debt instruments that are carried at amortized cost, investments in debt instruments that are carried at FVTOCI are tested for impairment based on the expected credit losses for their respective financial asset
> Trade Receivable
The Company applies the expected credit loss model for recognizing impairment loss on financial assets measured at amortised cost, trade receivables and other contractual rights to receive cash or another financial asset.
For trade receivables or any contractual right to receive cash or another financial asset that results from transactions that are within the scope of Ind AS 115, the Company follows 'simplified approach' and measures the loss allowance at an amount equal to lifetime expected credit losses. This impairment allowance is computed based on historical credit loss experience and management assessment.
> Other financial assets
Other financial assets are tested for impairment and expected credit losses are measured at an amount equal to 12 month expected credit loss. If the credit risk on the financial asset has increased significantly since initial recognition, then the expected credit losses are measured at an amount equal to life-time expected credit loss
B. Financial liabilities and equity instruments
(i) Classification as debt or equity
Debt and equity instruments issued by the Company are classified as either financial liabilities or as equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangements and the definitions of a financial liability and an equity instrument.
(ii) Equity instruments
An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of an entity after deducting all of its liabilities. Equity instruments issued by the Company are recognised at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs.
(iii) Financial Liabilities - Initial recognition and measurement
All financial liabilities are recognized initially at fair value plus any transaction cost that are
attributable to the acquisition of financial liability except financial liabilities at fair value through profit and loss which are initially measured at fair value.
(iv) Subsequent measurement
The financial liabilities are classified for subsequent measurement into following categories
• at amortized cost
• at fair value through profit and loss Amortised Cost - Loans and Borrowings
After initial recognition, interest-bearing loans and borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the Effective Interest Rate (EIR) method. Gains and losses are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss when the liabilities are derecognised. Amortised cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of the EIR. The EIR amortisation is included as finance costs in the Statement of Profit and Loss. This category generally applies to interest-bearing loans and borrowings.
c. Useful lives of property, plant and equipment and intangibleassets
The Company has estimated useful life of each class of assets based on the nature of assets, the estimated usage of the asset, the operating condition of the asset, past history of replacement, anticipated technological changes, etc. The Company reviews the carrying amount of property, plant and equipment and Intangible assets at the end of each reporting period. This reassessment may result in change in depreciation expense in future periods.
d. Impairment testing
Property, plant and equipment and Intangible assets are tested for impairment when events occur or changes in circumstances indicate that the recoverable amount of the cash generating unit is less than its carrying value. The recoverable amount of cash generating units is higher of fair value less costs of disposal and its value-in-use. The calculation involves use of significant estimates and assumptions which includes turnover and earnings multiples, growth rates and net margins used to calculate projected future cash flows, risk-adjusted discount rate, future economic and market conditions.
e. Cash Flow statements
Cash Flow Statement is prepared segregating the cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities. Cash flow from operating activities is reported using indirect method. Using indirect method, the net profit is adjusted for the effects of
(i) Transactions of non-cash nature.
(ii) Any deferrals or accruals of past or future operating cash receipts or payments and
(iii) Items of income or expense associated with investing or financing cash flows.
Cash and cash equivalents (including bank balances) are reflected as such in cash flow statement.
