B.11 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets
The company recognizes a provision when there is a present obligation as a result of a past event that probably requires an outflow of resources and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. A disclosure of a contingent liability is made when there is a possible obligation or a present obligation that probably will not require an outflow of resources. When there is a possible obligation or a present obligation that the likelihood of outflow of resource is remote, no provision or disclosure is made. Contingent liabilities are disclosed by way of a note.
Contingent assets are not recognized. However, contingent assets are assessed continually and if it is virtually certain that an economic benefit will arise, the asset and related income are recognized in the period in which the change occurs.
B.12 Taxes on Income
Income Tax expense comprises current tax (i.e. amount of tax for the period determined in accordance with the income tax law), deferred tax charge or credit (reflecting the tax effect of timing differences between accounting income and taxable income for the period).
Current Tax:
Provision for current tax is made on the basis of estimated taxable income for the accounting year in accordance with the Income Tax Act 1961 after considering tax allowances and exemptions, if any.
Deferred Tax:
A deferred tax charge or credit and the corresponding deferred tax liabilities and assets are recognized using the tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the Balance sheet date. Deferred tax charge or credit is recorded for timing differences, namely the differences that originate in one accounting period and reverse in another, based on the tax effect of the aggregate amount. Deferred tax assets are recognized only if there is reasonable certainty that sufficient future taxable income will be available against which such deferred tax assets can be realized and are reassessed for the appropriateness of their respective carrying values at each balance sheet date.
B.13 Earnings Per Share
The Company reports basic and diluted earnings per share in accordance with Ind AS 33 on Earnings per share. Basic EPS is calculated by dividing the net profit or loss for the year attributable to equity shareholders (after deducting preference dividend and attributable taxes) by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year.
For calculating diluted earnings per share, the net profit or loss for the year attributable to equity shareholders and the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year are adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potential equity shares. Dilutive potential equity shares are deemed converted as of the beginning of the period, unless they have been issued at a later date. In computing the dilutive earnings per share, only potential equity shares that are dilutive and that either reduces the earnings per share or increases loss per share are included
B.14 Employee Benefits
1. Contribution to provident fund by the Company is considered as defined contribution plan and are charged as an expense based on the amount of contribution required to be made as and when services are rendered by the employees.
2. Defined benefit and other long-term benefit plans
Company's liabilities towards defined benefit plans and other long term benefits viz. gratuity and compensated absences are determined using the Projected Unit Credit Method. The liability is determined as a differential amount on the basis of actuarial valuation being carried out at each balance sheet date and fund balance.
Remeasurement, comprising actuarial gains and losses, the return on plan assets (excluding amounts included in net interest on the net defined benefit liability or asset) and any change in the effect of asset ceiling (wherever applicable) is recognised in other comprehensive income and is reflected in retained earnings and the same is not eligible to be reclassified to profit or loss.
Defined benefit employee costs comprising current service cost, past service cost and gains or losses on settlements are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss as employee benefits expense. Interest cost implicit in defined benefit employee cost is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss under finance cost. Gains or losses on settlement of any defined benefit plan are recognised in profit or loss when such settlement occurs.
Past service cost is recognised as an expense on a straight line basis over the average period until the benefits become vested. To the extent the benefits are already vested immediately following the introduction of, or changes to, a defined benefit plan, past service cost is recognised immediately.
In case of funded plans, the fair value of the plan assets is reduced from the gross obligation under the defined benefit plans to recognise the obligation on a net basis.
3.Short-term employee benefits
Short-term employee benefits expected to be paid in lieu of the employment are recognised undiscounted during the period the employee renders the service. These benefits include performance incentives.
4.Other long-term employment benefits
Compensated absences which are not expected to be settled within twelve months after the end of the period in which the employee renders the related services are recognized as a liability at the present value of the defined benefit obligations at the balance sheet date based on actuarial valuation by an independent actuary using the Projected Unit Credit Method. The discount rates used for determining the present value of the obligation under the defined benefit plan are based on the market yields on government bonds as at the balance sheet date.
B.15 Key sources of estimation
The preparation of financial statements, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, requires estimates and assumptions to be made that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities (including contingent liabilities) on the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reported period. Differences between actual results and estimates are recognized in the periods in which the results are known / materialise.
B.16 Provisions and contingencies:
Provision is recognized in accounts when there is a present obligation as a result of past events and it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation. Contingent liabilities, if any, are disclosed in the notes to the financial statements.

A. Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Company’s exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relates primarily to the Company’s total debt obligations with floating interest rates.
B. Foreign currency risk
Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates. Foreign currency risk is limited since all significant transactions are in Indian Rupees.
