e. Classification of Current / Non-Current Assets and Liabilities

All the assets and liabilities have been classified as current or non current as per the Company’s normal operating cycle and other criteria set out in the Schedule III to theAct, 2013.

Assets

An asset is classified as current when it satisfies any of the following criteria:

a) it is expected to be realised in, or is intended for sale or consumption in, the Company’s normal operating cycle;

b) it is held primarily for the purpose of being traded;

c) it is expected to be realised within twelve months after the reporting date; or

d) it is cash or cash equivalent unless it is restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months after the reporting date

Liabilities

A liability is classified as current when it satisfies any of the following criteria:

a) it is expected to be settled in the Company’s normal operating cycle;

b) it is held primarily for the purpose of being traded;

c) it is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting date; or

d) the Company does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting date. Terms of a liability that could, at the option ofthe counterparty, result in its settlement by the issue of equity instruments do not affect its classification.

All other assets/ liabilities are classified as non-current. Based on the nature of the products and services, the Company has ascertained its operating cycle as twelve months for the purpose of Current / Non-current classification of assets and liabilities.

f. Key estimates and assumptions

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with Ind AS requires use of estimates and assumptions for some items, which might have an effect on their recognition and measurement in the (i) balance sheet and (ii) statement of profit and loss. The actual amounts realised may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and judgements used in the preparation of the financial statements are continuously evaluated by the Company and are based on historical experience and various other assumptions and factors (including expectations of future events) that the Company believes to be reasonable under the existing circumstances. Differences between actual results and estimates are recognised in the period in which the results are known/materialised.

The said estimates are based on the facts and events, that existed as at the reportig date, or that occurred after that date but provide additional evidence about conditions existing as at the reporting date.

Estimates and assumptions are required in particularfor:

a. Determination ofthe estimated useful lives of tangible assets

Useful lives of tangible assets are based on the life prescribed in Schedule II of the Companies Act, 2013. In cases, where the useful lives are different from that prescribed in Schedule II, they are based on technical advice, taking into account the nature of the asset, the estimated usage of the asset, the operating conditions of the asset, past history of replacement, anticipated technological changes, manufacturers’ warranties and maintenance support.

b. Recognition and measurement of defined benefit obligations

The obligation arising from defined benefit plan is determined on the basis of actuarial assumptions. Key actuarial assumptions include discount rate, trends in salary escalation, actuarial rates and life expectancy. The discount rate is determined by reference to market yields at the end of the reporting period on government bonds. The period to maturity of the underlying bonds correspond to the probable maturity of the post-employment benefit obligations.

c. Recognition of deferred tax assets

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying values of assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases, and unutilized business loss and depreciation carryforwards and tax credits. Deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probable that future taxable income will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, unused tax losses, depreciation carry-forwards and unused tax credits could be utilized.

d. Recognition and measurement of other provisions

The recognition and measurement of other provisions are based on the assessment of the probability of an outflow of resources, and on past experience and circumstances known at the balance sheet date. The actual outflow of resources at a future date may therefore vary from the amount included in other provisions.

1.2 Property, P lantandE quipment

Property, plant and equipment (PPE) are stated at the cost of acquisition including incidental costs related to acquisition and installation less accumulated depreciation and impairment loss, if any. Cost of acquisition is inclusive of freight, duties, taxes and other incidental expenses necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management.

Property Plant and Equipment are depreciated based on the revised remaining useful life of the assets as per the requirementof Schedule II of CompaniesAct, 2013.

1.3 Intangible Assets

Intangible assets are recognised when it is probable that the expected future economic benefits that are attributable to the asset will flow to the Company and the cost of the asset can be measured reliably.

Administrative and other general overhead expenses that are specifically attributable to acquisition of intangible assets are allocated and capitalised as a part of the cost of the intangible assets.

Intangible assets not ready for the intended use on the date of the Balance Sheet are disclosed as “intangible assets under development”

On transition to Ind AS , the Company has elected to continue with the carrying value of all its Intangible Assets recognised as at April 1, 2016 measured as per the Indian GAAP and use that carrying value as the deemed cost of the Intangible Assets. Intangible assets are amortised over their estimated useful life as under:

(a) Goodwill -10 years

(b) Licenses and franchises -10 years

(c) Computer software -3 years

1.4 Investments

(a) Non-current investments are carried at cost, after providing for any diminution in value, to recognise a decline other than temporary in nature.

(b) Current investments are carried at lower of cost and fair value.

The determination of carrying amount of such investments is done on the basis ofweighted average cost of each individual investment.

On transition to Ind AS, the Company has decided to measure its investment in Equity instrument (other than Associates) at its FairValue as defined under lndAS-109.

1.5 Impairment of Assets

As at each balance sheet date, the carrying amount of assets is tested for impairment so as to determine:

(a) the provision for impairment loss, if any; and

(b) the reversal of impairment loss recognised in previous periods, if any.

Impairment loss is recognised when the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount.

Recoverable amount is determined:

(a) in the case of an individual asset, at the higher of net selling price and the value in use; and

(b) in the case of cash generating unit (a group of assets that generates identified, independent cash flows), at the higher of the cash generating unit''s net selling price and the value in use. (Value in use is determined as the present value of estimated future cash flows from the continuing use of an asset and from its disposal at the end of its useful life.)

1.6 Inventories

Foreign currencies - notes and paid documents on hand are valued at lower of Average Cost and Inter Bank Rate as on the last day of the financial yearforeach currency.

Current tax assets and liabilities are offset only if, the Company:

a) has a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts; and

b) intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

Deferred tax

Deferred tax is recognised on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are generally recognised for all deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary differences can be utilised. The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.

Deferred tax liabilities and assets are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in which the liability is settled or the asset realised, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.

The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Company expects, at the end ofthe reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.

Ind AS 115, Revenue from Contract with customers:

In March 2018, the Ministry of Corporate Affairs has notified the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Amended Rules, 2018 (“amended rules”). As per the amended rules, Ind AS 115 “Revenue from contracts with customers” supersedes Ind AS 11, “Construction Contracts” and Ind AS 18, “Revenue” and is applicable for all accounting periods commencing on or after 1st April 2018.

Ind AS 115 introduces a new framework of five step model for the analysis of revenue transactions. The model specifies that revenue should be recognised when (or as) an entity transfer control of goods or services to a customer at the amount to which the entity expects to be entitled. Further the new standard requires enhanced disclosures about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from the entity’s contracts with customers. The new revenue standard is applicable to the Company from 1a April 2018.

The standard permits two possible methods of transition:

a. Retrospective approach - Under this approach the standard will be applied retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented in accordance with Ind AS 8 -Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors

b. Retrospectively with cumulative effect of initially applying the standard recognized at the date of initial application (Cumulative catch-up approach)

The effective date for adoption of Ind AS 115 is financial period beginning on or after 1 ’’April, 2018

The Company will adopt the standard on 1st April, 2018 by using the cumulative catch-up transition method and accordingly, comparatives for the year ending or ended 31a March, 2018 will not be retrospectively adjusted. The effect on adoption of Ind AS 115 is expected to be insignificant.
