12 Provisions and Contingent Liabilities:
A provision is recognised if, as a result of past event, the Company has a present legal obligation that can be estimated reliably, and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefit will be required to settle the obligation. Provisions are determined by the best estimate of outflow of economic benefits required to settle the obligation at the reporting date. Where no reliable estimate can be made, a disclosure is made as contingent liability. A disclosure for a contingent liability is also made when there is a possible obligation or a present obligation that may, but probably will not, require an outflow of resources. Where there is possible obligation or present obligation in respect of which the likelihood of outflow of resources is remote, no provision or disclosure is made. Provisions are not operating for future operating losses.
13 Earnings Per Share:
Basic Earnings per share is computed by dividing the net profit after tax by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing the net profit after tax by the weighted average number of shares considered for deriving basic earnings per share and also the weighted average number of equity shares that could have been issued upon conversion of all dilutive potential equity shares. The diluted potential equity shares are adjusted for the proceeds receivable had the shares been actually issued at fair value which is the average market value of the outstanding shares. Dilutive potential equity shares are deemed converted as at the beginning of the period, unless issued at a later date. Dilutive potential equity shares are determined independently for each period presented.

(c) it is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting date; or

19 Deferred Revenue Expenditure
The Company has planned to diversify its operations from a quasi charter model-where aircraft are hired as a complete package inclusive of fuel, crew, pilot, and maintenance-to a dry lease arrangement. Under the dry lease model, the Company leases only the aircraft, while all other operational requirements, including hiring of pilots and crew, fuel procurement, and maintenance, are managed independently by the Company. This strategic shift is aimed at overcoming the limitations associated with the quasi charter model.In anticipation of commencing operations under the dry lease model, the Company incurred various expenses, including aircraft lease rentals, pilot and crew hiring costs, and maintenance expenditures. However, commercial operations under the dry lease model commenced only upon receipt of the Air Operator Permit (AOP) from the aviation authorities on 11th December, 2024.Accordingly, expenses incurred in relation to the dry lease arrangement up to the date of obtaining the AOP have been initially recognized as Prepaid Expenses. These expenses have subsequently been reclassified as Deferred Revenue Expenditure and are being amortized over the lease period of aircraft.

29. Employee Benefit Obligation

Current Service Cost: is the discounted present value of the benefits from the Plan's benefit formula attributable to the services rendered by employees during the accounting period.
