The application of Ind AS i2 approach has resulted in recognition of deferred tax on new temporary differences which was not required under Indian GAAP.
In addition, the various transitional adjustments lead to temporary differences. Deferred tax adjustments are recognised in correlation to the underlying transaction either in retained earnings or a separate component of equity.
VI) Leases
Under IGAAP, the Company had capitalised site development expenses as leasehold land under Property, Plant and Equipment and the same was being amortised over the lease period of 33 years from 2nd March, i990.
