1.1 Basis of accounting and preparation of financial statements

The financial statements of the company have been prepared in accordance with the Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in India (Indian GAAP) to comply with the Accounting Standards notified under the Companies (Accounting Standard) Rules 2006 (as amended) and the relevant provisions of Companies Act 1956. The financial statements have been prepared on accrual basis under the historical cost convention. The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the financial statements are consistent with those followed in the previous year. Further, the financial statements have been prepared on the ''going concern'' concept.

1.2 Use of Estimates

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with the Indian GAAP requires the management to make estimates and assumptions considered in the reporting of assets and liabilities and the reported income and expenses during the year. The management believes that the estimates used in the preparation of the financial statements are prudent and reasonable. Future results could differ due to these estimates and the difference between the actual results and the estimates will be recognized in the periods in which the results are known/materialize.

1.3 Cash and Cash Equivalents (for the purpose of the Cash flow Statement)

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and demand deposits with banks.

1.4 Cash Flow Statement

Cash flows are reported using the indirect method, whereby profit / (loss) before extraordinary items and tax is adjusted for the effect of transactions of non-cash nature and any deferrals or accruals of past or future cash receipts or payments. The cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities of the company are segmented based on the available information.

1.5 Depreciation and amortization

Depreciation has been provided on the written down value method as per the rates prescribed in Schedule XIV to the Companies Act 1956

1.6 Revenue Recognition

Income from Services

There are no revenue generating activities during the financial year, hence there is no revenue for the financial year 2013-14.

1.7 Tangible Fixed assets

Fixed assets are carried at cost, less accumulated Depreciation and impairment losses, if any. The cost of fixed assets includes interest on borrowings attributable to acquisition of qualifying fixed assets up to the date the asset is ready for its intended use and other incidental expenses incurred up to that date

1.8 Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing the profit/(loss) after tax (including the post tax effect of extraordinary items, if any) by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year.

1.9 Taxes on income

Since the company has incurred loss during the current year, provision for current tax has not been made in accordance with the provisions of the Income Tax Act, 1961. Based on the past performance and adopting the prudence concept, the company has not made provision for Deferred Tax Asset as required by the Accounting Standard-22 on ''Accounting for taxes on Income.

1.10 Impairment of assets

The carrying values of assets / cash generating units at each Balance Sheet date are reviewed for impairment. If any indication of impairment exists, the recoverable amount of such assets is estimated and impairment is recognized, if the carrying amount of these assets exceeds their recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the greater of the net selling price and their value in use. Value in use is arrived at by discounting the future cash flows to their present value based on an appropriate discount factor. When there is indication that an impairment loss recognized for an asset in earlier accounting periods no longer exists or may have decreased, such reversal of impairment loss is recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss, except in case of revalued assets.

1.11 Provisions and contingencies

A provision is recognized when the Company has 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 in respect of which a reliable estimate can be made. Provisions (excluding retirement benefits) are not discounted to their present value and are determined based on the best estimate required to settle the obligation at the Balance Sheet date. These are reviewed at each Balance Sheet date and adjusted to reflect the current best estimates. Contingent liabilities are disclosed in the Notes.
