Accounting policies adopted in the preparation of financial statements are consistent with those of previous year.

All the Assets and liabilities have been classified as current or non-current as per criteria set out in Schedule III to the Act. Based on the nature of services and their realisation in cash and cash equivalents, the Company has ascertained its operation cycle as twelve months for the purpose of current or non-current classification of assets and liabilities.

1.2. Uses of Estimates

The preparation of the Financial Statements in conformity with Indian Accounting Standard requires Management to make Judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities and the disclosures relating to contingent assets and liabilities at the end of the reporting period. Example of such estimates includes provision for doubtful debts, income taxes etc. Although these estimates are based on the management's best knowledge of current events and actions, uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in the outcomes requiring a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in future period.

1.3. Revenue Recognition

Revenue is recognized to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the company and the revenue can be reliably measured.

Revenues from contract services provided during the year are recognised, as and when the services are rendered, based on the agreements/arrangements with the concerned parties. Unbilled revenue is recognized to the extent not billed at the year end. The company collects GST on behalf of the government and, therefore, it is not an economic benefit flowing to the company. Hence, it is excluded from Revenue.

Claims for damages etc. against the contractors/service providers are recognized ondue basis, as and when the certainty to receive the claim is ascertained.

Interest is recognized on a time proportion basis taking into account the amount outstanding and theapplicable interest rate.

1.4. Inventories:

As Company is into service industry, no inventories are there with the company. During the course of business material required by the company as input were consumed during the year and were expensed out accordingly.

1.5. Property, Plant, Equipment & Intangible Assets

Any subsidy/ reimbursement/ contribution received for installation and acquisition of any Property, Plant, Equipment & Intangible Assets is shown as deduction in the year of receipt. Capital work- in progress is stated at cost.

Allother expenses on existing fixed assets, including day-to-day repairs and maintenance expenditure andcost of replacing parts, are charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss for the period during whichsuch expenses are incurred.

Gains or losses arising from de-recognition of Property, Plant, Equipment & Intangible Assets are measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the assets derecognized.

1.6. Depreciation

Depreciable amount of an item of property, plant and machinery, equipments, furniture is allocated on a systematic basis over its useful life. Depreciation on assets is provided on straight line method using the rates arrived at based on the useful lives estimated as prescribe in schedule II of the Companies Act 2013. The Company believes that straight line method reflects the pattern in which the asset's future economic benefits are expected to be consumed by the Company.

Each part of an item of Property, Plant and Equipment with a cost that is significant in relation to the total cost of the item is depreciated separately.

Depreciation on fixed assets added/disposed off during the year/period is provided on pro-rata basis with reference to the date of addition/disposal. Individual assets costing upto Rs.5,000 are depreciated in full in the year of purchase.

Residual value and the useful life of an asset is reviewed at least at each financial year-end and, if expectations differ from previous estimates, the change(s) is accounted for as a change in an accounting estimate in accordance with Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors.

Deferred Taxes reflect the impact of timing differences between taxable income and accounting income originating during the current year and reversal of timing differences for the earlier years. Deferred tax is measured using the tax rates and the tax laws enacted at the reporting date.
