c. Use of judgments and estimates
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with Ind AS requires management to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions. These affect the application of accounting policies, the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the reporting date of the financial statements and reported amounts of income and expenses during the period. Accounting estimates could change from period to period and the actual results could differ from those estimates. These are reviewed by the management on an on-going basis and appropriate changes in estimates are made prospectively as management becomes aware of changes in circumstances surrounding the estimates. Changes in estimates are reflected in the financial statements in the period in which changes are made and, if material, their effects are disclosed in the notes to the financial statements.
The management believes that the estimates used in preparation of these financial statements are just, prudent and reasonable.
d. Property, plant and equipment
All the items of property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less depreciation and impairment, if any. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the items.
When significant parts of property, plant and equipment are required to be replaced at intervals, the company derecognizes the replaced part and recognizes the new part with its own associated useful life and it is depreciated accordingly. Likewise, when a major inspection is performed, its cost is recognized in the carrying amount of the plant and equipment. All others repairs and maintenance cost are recognized in the statement of profit and loss as incurred. Subsequent cost are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognized as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item that will flow to the company and the cost of the items can be measured reliably. Expenses directly related to construction activity or incidental thereto, are allocated to fixed assets at the time of completion of the project.
The charge in respect of periodic depreciation is derived after determining an estimate of an asset’s expected useful life and the expected residual value at the end of its life. The useful lives and residual values of company's assets are determined by management at the time the asset is acquired and the assets residual values, useful lives and method of depreciation are reviewed at each financial year end and adjusted prospectively, if appropriate. The lives are based on historical experience with similar assets as well as anticipation of future events, which may impact their life, such as changes in technology. Depreciation on Property, Plant and Equipment, other than Freehold Land is provided over the useful life of the asset as specified in schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013. Property , Plant and Equipment which are added / disposed off during the year , depreciation is provided on pro rata basis with reference to the month of addition and deletion.
