a) Basis of preparation of financial statements
The financial statements of the Company have been prepared on accrual
basis under the historical cost convention in accordance with the
Indian Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) to comply in all
material aspects with the Accounting Standards notified under Section
211(3C) (which continues to be applicable in terms of General circular
15/2013 dated September 13, 2013 of the Ministry of Corporate Affairs
in respect of Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013) and other
relevant provisions of the Companies Act, 1956 .The accounting policies
adopted in the preparation of the financial statements are consistent
with those followed in the previous year.
b) Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Generally
Accepted Accounting principles (Indian GAAP) requires management to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported balances of
assets and liabilities and disclosures relating to contingent
liabilities as at the date of the financial statements and the reported
amounts of revenue and expenses during the reported year. Examples of
such estimates include future obligations under employee retirement
benefit plans, provision for doubtful receivables, employee benefits,
provision for income taxes, useful life of depreciable fixed assets and
provision for impairment. Future results could differ due to changes in
these estimates and the difference between the actual result and the
estimates are recognized in the period in which the results are
known/materialize.
c) Revenue Recognition
Revenue is recognized on accrual basis to the extent it is probable
that the economic benefits will flow to the Company and the revenue can
be reliably measured.
Income from the services is recognized when the services are rendered
in accordance with the terms agreed.
Interest income is recognized on time proportion basis taking into
account the amount outstanding and the rate applicable.
d) Fixed Assets:
Tangible Assets:
Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation.
Cost includes any directly attributable costs incurred to bring the
assets for its intended use.
Subsequent expenditure related to an item of fixed assets is added to
its book value only if it increases the future benefits from the
existing asset beyond its previously assessed standard of performance.
e) Depreciation
Depreciation is provided on assets which are put to use during the year
using Straight Line Method over the useful lives of assets estimated by
the Management. Depreciation for assets purchased/sold during a period
is proportionately charged.
Individual Fixed Assets costing Rs.5,000 and below are fully
depreciated in the year of purchase.
f) Leases
Lease arrangements where the risks and rewards incidental to ownership
of an asset substantially vests with the less or, are recognized as
operating lease. Lease rentals under operating lease are recognized in
the statement of profit and loss on a straight-line basis over the
lease term.
g) Inventories
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value.
Cost includes all expenses incurred to bring the inventory to its
present location and condition. Cost is determined on a weighted
average basis.
h) Foreign currency Transactions
Transactions in foreign currencies are translated at the exchange rates
prevailing on the dates of transactions and the exchange gains/losses
on settlements during the year, are charged to Statement of Profit and
Loss. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies
are translated at the rates prevailing on the date of Balance sheet.
Exchange gains/losses including those relating to fixed assets are
dealt with in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
i) Investments
Investments are classified into Current and Long Term Investments based
on the Management's intention at the time of purchase. Long Term
investments are carried at cost less provision for diminution in value,
if any which is other than temporary in the value of such investments.
Any reduction in carrying amount and any reversals of such reductions
are charged or credited to the Statement of profit and loss.
j) Employee Benefits
The estimated liability for employee benefits, both short and long
term, for present and past services which are due as per the terms of
employment are recorded in accordance with Accounting Standard (AS) 15
"Employee Benefits". A brief description of the employee benefits are
as follows:
Gratuity:
In accordance with the Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972, The Company has
an obligation towards gratuity, a defined retirement benefit plan ('the
Gratuity Plan') covering all eligible employees. The Gratuity Plan
provides a lump sum payment to vested employees at retirement, death,
incapacitation or termination of employment, of an amount based on the
respective employee's salary and the tenure of employment with the
Company.
Vesting occurs on completion of five years of service. The liabilities
with regard to the Gratuity Plan are determined by an independent
actuarial valuation at each Balance Sheet date. Actuarial gains and
losses arising from experience adjustments and changes in actuarial
assumptions are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss in the
period in which they arise.
Provident Fund:
All eligible employees of the Company are entitled to receive benefits
under the Provident Fund, a defined contribution plan to which both the
employee and employer make monthly contributions at a determined
percentage of the covered employee's salary. The Company has no further
obligations under the provident fund plan beyond its monthly
contributions.
k) Earnings Per Share
The Company reports basic and diluted earnings per share in accordance
with Accounting Standard (AS) 20, Earnings Per Share. Basic earnings
per equity share is computed by dividing the net profit for the year
attributable to the Equity Shareholders by the weighted average number
of equity shares outstanding during the year.
Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net profits for the
year, adjusted for the effects of dilutive potential equity shares,
attributable to the Equity Shareholders by the weighted average number
of the equity shares and dilutive potential equity shares outstanding
during the year except where the results are anti dilutive. Dilutive
potential equity shares are deemed converted as of the beginning of the
period / year, unless issued at a later date.
1) Taxation
Current Tax is the amount of tax payable on taxable income for the
period determined in accordance with the provisions of Income Tax Act,
1961.
Deferred tax expense or benefit is recognized on timing differences
being the difference between taxable income and accounting income that
originate in one period and is likely to reverse in one or more
subsequent periods. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured
using the tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or
substantively enacted as on the balance sheet date.
In the event of unabsorbed depreciation and carry forward of losses,
deferred tax assets are recognized only to the extent that there is
virtual certainty supported by convincing evidence that sufficient
future taxable income will be available to realize such assets. In
other situations, deferred tax assets are recognized only to the extent
that there is reasonable certainly that sufficient future taxable
income will be available to realize these assets.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if such items relate to
taxes on income levied by the same governing tax laws and the Company
has a legally enforceable right for such set off. Deferred tax assets
are reviewed at each Balance Sheet date for their realisability.
m) Impairment of Assets
The management assesses the carrying amount of assets at each balance
sheet date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment,
if any such indication exists; the recoverable amount of the assets is
estimated. An impairment loss is recognized whenever the carrying value
of an asset or its cash generating unit exceeds the recoverable amount.
The recoverable amount is the greater of the asset's net selling price
and value in use, which is determined, based on the estimated future
cash flow discounted to their present values. An impairment loss of an
asset is reversed if, and only if, the reversal can be related
objectively to an event occurring after such loss was recognized. The
carrying amount of an asset will be increased to its revised
recoverable amount, provided such amount does not exceed the carrying
amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been
recognized for the asset in prior years.
n) Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent assets
A provision is recognized 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 resources embodying economic benefits
will be required to settle the obligation. Provisions are determined by
the best estimate of the outflow of economic benefits required to
settle the obligation at the reporting date.
A disclosure for Contingent liabilities is made when there is a
possible obligation or a present obligation where it is not probable
that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be
required or a reliable estimate cannot be made. Contingent assets are
neither recognized nor disclosed in the financial statements.
