• The appropriate level of management is committed to a plan to sell the asset (or disposal group)

• An active p^rogrammeto locate a buyer and complete the plan has been initiated (if applicable)

• The asset (or disposal group) Is being actively marketed for sale at a price that Is reasonable In relation to its current fair value

• The sale is expected to qualify for recognition as a completed sale within one year from the date of classification, and''

• Actions required to complete the pian indicated that it is unlikely that significant changes to the plan will be made or that the plan will be withdrawn. Non-current, asset held for sale/for distribution to owners and disposal groups arc measured at the lower of their carrying amount ana the fair value less costs to sell/distribute. Assets and liabilities classified as held for sale/distribution are presented separately In the balance sheet.

(xii) Lease

(a) Right of use assets

At the date of commencement of the lease, the Company recognizes a right-of-use (ROU) asset and a corresponding lease liability for all lease arrangements in which it is a lessee, except for leases with a term of 12 months or less (short-term leases) and low value leases.

Certain lease arrangements include the options to extend or terminate the lease before the end of the lease term. ROU assets and lease liabilities includes these options when it is reasonably certain that they will be exercised. The ROU assets are initially recognized at cost, which comprises the Initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or prior to the commencement date of the lease olus any initial direct costs less any lease incentives. They are subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depredation and Impairment losses. ROU assets are depreciated from the commencement date on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease term and useful life of the underlying asset.

ROU assets are evaluated for recoverability whenever events or changes In circumstances Indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. For the

purpose of impairment testing, the recoverable amount (i.e. the higher of the fair value less cost to sell and the value-ln-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 Cash Generating Unit (CGU)to which the asset belongs.

(b) Lease Liabilities

The lease liability is initially measured at amortized cost at the present value of the future lease payments. The Company recognise a lease liability at the present V3lue of the remaining lease payments, discounted using the lessees incremental borrowing rate.

The lease payments include fixed payments (including in-substance fixed payments) less any lease incentives receivable, variable lease payments that depend on a lease by lease basis.

In calculating the present value of lease payments, the Company uses the Incremental borrowing rate at the lease commencement date if the interest rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable. Lease liabilities are remeasured with a corresponding adjustment to the related right of use asset if the Company changes its assessment if whether it will exercise an extension or a termination option.

Lease liability and ROU asset have been separately presented In the 8alance Sheet.

(v) Impairment of non-financlal assets

The Company assesses at each reporting date whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. If any indication

exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the Company estimates the assets''s recoverable amount. An assets''s recoverable amount Is the higher of an assets''s or CGU’s fair value less costs of disposal 3nd Its value in use. Where the carrying amount of an asset or CGU exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is considered Impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount

(vl) Impairment of financial assets

The impairment provisions for financial assets are based on assumptions about risk of default and expected loss rates. The Company uses judgement in making these assumptions and selecting the inputs to the impairment calculation, based on Company''s past history, existing market conditions as well as forward looking estimates at the end of each reporting period.

(vii) Fair value measurement of financial instruments

When the fair values of financials assets and financial liabilities recorded in the Balance Sheet cannot be measured based on quoted prices in active markets, their fair value is measured using valuation techniques, including the discounted cash flow model, which involve various judgementsand assumptions.
