In such cases, the recoverable amount is determined for the CGU to which the asset belongs.

If such asset is considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recongised in the statement of profit and loss is measured by the amount by which the carrying value of the assets exceeds the estimated recoverable amount of the asset. An impairment loss is reversed in the statement of profit & loss if there have been changes in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. The carrying amount is increased to its revised recoverable amount, provided that this amount does not exceeds the carrying amount that would have been determined (net of any accumulated amortization or depreciation) had no impairment loss has been recognized for the asset in prior years.

(i) CURRENT TAX

Income tax expense comprises current and deferred income tax. Income tax expense is recognized in net profit in the statement of profit and loss except to the extent that it relates to items recognized directly in equity, in which case it is recognized in other comprehensive income.

Current tax is expected tax payable on the taxable income for the year, using the tax rate enacted at the reporting date, and any adjustment to the tax payable in respect of the earlier periods.

Current tax assets and liabilities are offset where the company has legal enforceable right to offset and intends either to settle on net basis, or to realize the assets and settle the liability simultaneously.

(ii) DEFERRED TAX ASSETS / LIABILITIES

Deferred tax is recognized for all taxable temporary differences and is calculated based on the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes.

Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates that are expected to be applied when the asset is realized or the liability is settled, based on the laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.

Deferred tax assets are recognized only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the assets can be utilized. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realized.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset and when the deferred tax balances relate to taxes levied by the same tax authority on the same taxable entity, or on different tax entities, but the Group intends to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis or their tax assets and liabilities will be realized simultaneously.

P. IMPAIRMENT

Financial assets

The company recognizes loss allowances using the expected credit loss model for the financial assets which are not fair valued through statement of profit and loss. Loss allowance on trade receivables, with no significant financing component is measured at an amount equal to lifetime expected credit loss. For all financial assets expected credit losses are measured at an amount equal to 12-month ECL unless there has been significant increase in credit risk from initial recognition in which case these are measured at lifetime expected credit loss. The amount of expected credit losses or reversal that is required to adjust the loss allowance at the reporting date to the amount that is required to be recognized is recognized as an impairment gain or loss in the profit or loss for the period.

Intangible assets, property, plant and equipment

Intangible assets, property plant & equipment are evaluated for recoverability wherever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amount may not be recoverable.

For impairment testing, assets that do not generate independent cash flows are grouped together into cash generating units (CGUs).

For the purpose of impairment testing, the recoverable amount (i.e. the higher of the fair value less cost to sell and the value in use) is determined on an individual asset basis unless the asset does not generate cash flows that are largely independent of those from other assets. In such cases, the recoverable amount is determined for the CGU to which the asset belongs.

If such asset is considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized in the statement of profit and loss is measured by the amount by which the carrying value of the assets exceeds the estimated recoverable amount of the asset. An impairment loss is reversed in the statement of profit & loss if there have been changes in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. The carrying amount is increased to its revised recoverable amount, provided that this amount does not exceeds the carrying amount that would have been determined (net of any accumulated amortization or depreciation) had no impairment loss has been recognized for the asset in prior years.

These amendments are in accordance with the recent amendments made by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) to IAS 7, Statement of Cash flows and IFRS 2 Share based payments respectively. The amendments to Ind AS 7 are applicable to the Company w.e.f 1st April 2017.

Amendment to Ind AS 7;

The amendment to Ind AS 7 requires the entities to provide disclosures that enables the users of financial statements to evaluate changes in liabilities arising from financing activities, including both changes arising from cash flows and non cash changes, suggesting inclusion of a reconciliation statements between opening and closing balances in the balance sheet for liabilities arising from financing activities to meet the disclosure requirement.

Amendment to Ind AS 102;

The amendment to Ind AS 102 provides specific guidance to measurement of cash settled awards, modification of cash settled awards and awards that include a net settlement feature in respect of withholding taxes.

It clarifies that the fair value of cash settled awards is determined on a basis consistent with that used for equity settled awards. Market based performance conditions and non vesting conditions are reflected in the fair values, but non market performance conditions and service vesting conditions are reflected in the estimate of the number of awards expected to vest. Also the amendment clarifies that the terms and conditions of a cash settled share based payment transaction are modified with the result that it becomes equity settled share based payment transaction, the transaction is accounted for as such from the date of modification. Further, the amendment requires the awards that include a net settlement feature in respect of withholding taxes to be treated as equity settled in entirety. The cash payment to the tax authority is treated as if it was part of an equity settlement.

Since, the impact of proposed changes in Ind AS 7 relates to the disclosure of the items included in the financial statements. These do not have any impact on the financial position of the company.
