The Company has also reclassified the previous year figures in accordance with the requirements applicable in the cur¬ rent year.
2.2 Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) in India requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent liabilities on the date of the fi¬ nancial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Management believes the assumptions used in the estimates are prudent and reasonable. Any revision to accounting estimates is recognized prospectively in the cur¬ rent and future periods.

Property, Plant and Equipments and Intangible Assets are stated at cost of acquisition less accumulated depreciation / amortization and impairment. Cost includes purchase price and other cost attributable to acquisition and installation of the assets. Intangible assets are recognised only when it is probable that the future economic benefits that are attrib¬ utable to the assets will flow to the Company and the cost of such assets can be measured reliably. Intangible assets are stated at cost less accumulated amortisation and impair¬
ment loss, if any. All costs relating to the acquisition are cap¬ italised. Property, Plant and Equipments individually costing upto ' 5,000 are fully depreciated in the year of purchase.

The current charge for income taxes is calculated in accordance with the relevant tax regu¬ lations applicable to the Company. The deferred tax charge
or credit and the corresponding deferred tax liabilities or assets are recognised using the tax rates that have been enacted or sub¬ stantially enacted by the balance sheet date. Deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent there is reasonable certainty that the assets can be realised in future; however, where there is unabsorbed depreciation or carry forward of losses, deferred tax assets are recognised only if there is a virtual certainty of realisation of such assets. Deferred tax assets are reviewed as at each balance sheet date and written down or written-up to reflect the amount that is reasonably/ virtually certain (as the case may be) to be realised.
2.11 Earnings per share (EPS)
Basic EPS is computed using the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year. Diluted EPS is computed using the weighted average number of equity and potential equity shares outstanding during the year except where the results would be anti-dilutive.
