14. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS, ESTIMATES AND ASSUMPTIONS

The preparation of the Company’s Standalone financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities and the accompanying disclosures, and the disclosure of contingent liabilities. Uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets or liabilities affected in future periods.

Judgements

In the process of applying the Company’s accounting policies, management has made the following judgements, which have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the Standalone financial statements:

Estimates and assumptions

The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year, are described below. The Company based its assumptions and estimates on parameters available when the standalone financial statements were prepared. Existing circumstances and assumptions about future developments, however, may change due to market changes or circumstances arising that are beyond the control of the Company. Such changes are reflected in the assumptions when they occur.

The Management believes that the judgments and estimates used in preparation of financial statement are prudent and reasonable.

Taxes

Deferred tax assets are recognised for unused tax losses to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the losses can be utilised. Significant management judgement is required to determine the amount of deferred tax assets that can be recognised, based upon the likely timing and the level of future taxable profits.

Defined benefit plans (gratuity benefits)

The cost of the defined benefit gratuity plan and the present value of the gratuity obligation are determined using actuarial valuations. An actuarial valuation involves making various assumptions that may differ from actual developments in the future. These include the determination of the discount rate, future salary increases and mortality rates. Due to the complexities involved in the valuation and its long-term nature, a defined benefit obligation is highly sensitive to changes in these assumptions. All assumptions are reviewed at each reporting date.

Fair value measurement of financial instruments

When the fair values of financial 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 DCF model. The inputs to these models are taken from observable markets where possible, but where this is not feasible, a degree of judgement is required in establishing fair values. Judgements include considerations of inputs such as liquidity risk, credit risk and volatility. Changes in assumptions about these factors could affect the reported fair value of financial instruments. See Note 40 for further disclosures.

Allowances for credit loss on Trade Receivable , Advance to supplier and other receivable

The Provision for allowances for credit loss for Trade Receivable , Advance to supplier and other receivable are based on assumptions about the risk of defaults and expected credit loss. The Company uses judgment in making these assumption and selecting the inputs to the calculation of provision for allowance based on the past history, existing market conditions as well as forward looking estimates at the end of each reporting period.

Provisions for impairment loss on Investment

Provisions for impairment loss on Investment is based on evaluation of financial position of investee companies to meet their obligations for honouring their commitments towards the investment held by the Company.

The Company makes contribution towards provided fund and superannuation fund which are in nature of defined contribution post employee benefit plan. Under the plan, the Company is required to contribute a specified percentage of payroll cost to fund the benefits. amount recognised as an expense in the statement of Profit and Loss - included in note 30 - “Contribution to provident and other funds” Rs.2.21 crore ( previous year Rs.2.04 Crore) is given in table above

b) Defined Benefit Plan

The employee’s Gratuity Fund Scheme, which is defined benefit plan, is managed by Trust maintained with Life Insurance Corporation of India (LIC). The present value of obligation is determined based on actuarial valuation using Projected Unit Credit Method, which recognizes each period of service as giving rise to additional unit of employee benefit entitlement and measures each unit separately to build up the final obligation. The obligation for compensated absences is recognized in same manner as gratuity.

Based on accturial valuation obtained as at the Balance Sheet date the following table sets out the details of Defined Benefit obligation.

The above sensitivity analysis is based on a change in an assumption while holding all other assumptions constant. In practice, this is unlikely to occur, and changes in some of the assumptions may be correlated. When calculating the sensitivity of the defined benefit obligation to significant actuarial assumptions the same method (projected unit credit method) has been applied as when calculating the defined benefit obligation recognised within the Balance Sheet.

15. COMMITMENTS, CONTINGENCIES AND PROVISIONS

a. Leases

18. FAIR VALUE HIERARCHY

The following table provides the fair value measurement hierarchy of the Company’s assets and liabilities.

19. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES

The Company’s principal financial liabilities comprise of loans and borrowings, trade and other payables and financial guarantee contracts. The main purpose of these financial liabilities is to manage finance for the Company’s operations. The Company’s principal financial assets includes investments, trade and other receivables, supplier advance and cash and cash equivalents that derive directly from its operations.

The Company is exposed to market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The Company’s senior management oversees the management of these risks. The Company’s senior management is supported by Risk Management Group (RMG), Investment committee and Resource committee that advises on financial risks and the appropriate financial risk governance framework for the Company. The Risk Management Group, Investment committee and Resource committee provides assurance to the Company’s senior management that the Company’s financial risk activities are governed by appropriate policies and procedures and that financial risks are identified, measured and managed in accordance with the Company’s policies and risk objectives. It is the Company’s policy that no trading in derivatives for speculative purposes may be undertaken. The Audit Committe of the Board and the Board of Directors review and monitor risk management and mitigation plans. The financial risks are summarised below.

19.1 Market risk

Market risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. Market risk comprises three types of risk: interest rate risk, currency risk and other price risk, such as equity price risk and commodity risk. Financial instruments affected by market risk include loans, borrowings and deposits. As the revenues from the Company’s network service business is dependent on the sustainability of telecom sector, Company believes that Macro - economic factor, including the growth of Indian economy as well as political and economic environment, have a significant direct impact on the Company’s business, results of operations and financial position.

19.2 Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flow of financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The significant part of financial instrument which can be considered in case of the Company as subject to interest rate risk are borrowings . However the Company’s borrowings carry fixed interest rate and therefore the Company is not exposed to significant interest rate risk.

19.3 Foreign currency risk

Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of an exposure will fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates. The Company’s exposure to the risk of changes in foreign exchange rates relates primarily to the External Commercial Borrowings and except for the the same , the Company is not exposed to foreign currency risk as the Company’s business operations do not involve any significant transactions in foreign currency.

Foreign currency sensitivity

The impact on the Company’s loss before tax on account of variation in exchange rates can be on account of fluctuation in USD as the Company’s External Commercial borrowings liability is USD denominated liability .The following table demonstrates the sensitivity to a reasonably possible change in USD exchange rates, with all other variables held constant. 1% increase or decrease in USD rate will have the following impact on loss before tax :

19.4 Equity price risk

The Company’s equity investment in one of its associates is listed and all other investments are in unlisted entities. All the investments of the Company are trade and strategic investments and therefore are not considered to be exposed or susceptible to market risk.

19.5 Commodity price risk

The Company is engaged in business of providing “Network Services” comprising mainly of Operation maintenance and energy management (OME) and other network services. In OME the major component of cost are electricity and Fuel. The variation in the price of electricity and fuel is index based i.e. additionally charged to customer. With regards to other services the contracts are cost plus margin and therefore commodity price risk is mitigated

19.6 Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk that counterparty will not meet its obligations under a financial instrument or customer contract, leading to a financial loss. The Company is exposed to credit risk from its operating activities (primarily trade receivables), deposits with banks and other financial assets.

Trade receivables

Customer credit risk is managed subject to the Company’s established policy, procedures and controls relating to customer credit risk management. Credit quality of a customer is assessed based on individual credit limits and defined in accordance with customer assessment. Outstanding customer receivables are regularly monitored.

The Company follows a ‘simplified approach’ (i.e. based on lifetime ECL) for recognition of impairment loss allowance on Trade receivables. For the purpose of measuring lifetime ECL allowance for trade receivables, the Company estimates irrecoverable amounts based on the ageing of the receivable balances . Individual trade receivables are written off when management deems them not to be collectible. The Company does not hold any collateral as security against these trade receivables. The contractually agreed terms effectively manage the concentration risk.

Financial Assets and bank deposits

Credit risk from balances with banks is managed by the Company’s treasury department in accordance with the Company’s policy. The Company considers factors such as track record, size of the institution, market reputation and service standards to select the banks with which its balances and deposits are maintained. Generally, the balances are maintained with the institutions with which the Company has also availed borrowings. The Company does not maintain significant cash and deposit balances other than those required for its day to day operations.

The Company’s maximum exposure to credit risk for the components of the balance sheet at 31 March 2018 and 31 March 2017 is the carrying amounts as appearing in Note 8,12,13,14,15,16 and 19.

19.7 Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is that the Company will not be able to settle or meet its obligation on time or at reasonable price. Company’s principal sources of liquidity are cash flows generated from its operations.

The Company continues to take various measures such as cost optimisation, improving operating efficiency to increase Company’s operating results and cash flows. Further the Company has made a proposal for a negotiated settlement of debts which has been agreed in principle by all set of lenders. The management is of the view that upon the implementation of the Company’s negotiated settlement proposal, the Company would be in a position to meet its liabilities and continue its operations.

The table below summarises the maturity profile of the Company’s financial liabilities based on contractual undiscounted payments.

20. CAPITAL MANAGEMENT

For the purpose of the Company’s capital management, capital includes issued equity capital, convertible preference shares, Securities premium and all other equity reserves attributable to the equity holders of the Company. The primary objective of the Company’s capital management is to safeguard continuity of the business operations.

In view of slow down in telecom industry in last few years, the Company’s business received a set back which resulted in incurrence of huge losses and adversely impacting the capital of the Company. The Company therefore for effective capital management has submitted a proposal for negotiated settlement of debts and the same has been agreed in principle by all set lenders. On implementation of Company’s proposal for negotiated settlement, there will be substantial improvement in capital structure of the Company.

20.1 The Company has a Deferred Tax Asset of Rs.438.97 Crore as on March 31, 2018 (Rs.789.55 Crore as on March 31, 2017). The same has not been recognised in the financial statement in the absence of probable taxable profits against which the same can be utilised.

20.2 Amount and expiry date of unused tax losses which are not considered in deferred tax assets disclosed above

From last few years the Company is incurring losses and doesn’t expect sufficient future taxable income in the near future against which the unused business losses can be utilised and therefore the Company has not considered the same for working of unrecognised DTA disclosed above .

21. GOING CONCERN

In last few years, the Company has incurred cash losses, resulting in erosion of its entire net worth. The Company’s current liabilities are higher than its current assets. While winding up petitions have been disposed of based on consent terms filed.

The management is of a view that upon acceptance and implementation of the Company’s revised negotiated settlement proposal, it would be in a position to meet its liabilities and continue its operations. In view of the above, the Company continues to prepare above results on Going Concern basis.

2.8.1 In the financial statements of the previous financial year, the following was disclosed in relation to the Rated Redeemable Unsecured Rupee Non- Convertible Debentures issued by the Company:

"The holder of Rated Redeemable Unsecured Rupee Non-Convertible Debentures have given their consent to be part of the Corporate Debt Restructuring Scheme. Accordingly, the Company and the holders of Rated Redeemable Unsecured Rupee Non-Convertible Debentures have entered into amendment to the original sanction letter on March 22, 2014 to restructure NCD debt, pending fulfillment of conditions mentioned therein, the effect of the same is not given in the books".

The time period for complying with the various conditions was originally May 31,2014 and the same was subsequently extended to July 31,2014.

While the Company had taken steps towards fulfillment of its obligations, including payment of a sum of Rs. 123.80 Cr. in respect of interest, due

to certain inter-creditor issues, and pendency of consent by CDR Lenders, the restructuring could not be implemented within the time prescribed under definitive documentation entered into with the NCD holders.

While the Company was in the process of obtaining consent of the CDR lenders on bilateral restructuring documents, the Company received a notice on October 27, 2014 from the NCD holder exercising its rights for acceleration of the entire outstanding amount and in January 2015 the NCD holders filed winding up petition against the Company before Hon'ble High Court of Bombay seeking urgent / interim reliefs such as desisting from making any further payment to CDR lenders till ECB / NCD interest / principal dues are paid, share the proceeds of TRA account on pari-passu with CDR lenders and going forward to create security in favour of NCD holder. The Company has taken appropriate legal steps in these matters to defend / protect its interest. The CDR and ECB lenders of the Company have also intervened. The Bombay High Court has asked CDR lenders position on the NCD holder's treatment on pari-passu basis. The matter is currently sub-judice.

Since all funds of the Company are subject matter of Trust and Retention Account (TRA) which is controlled by CDR lenders, the question of payment to NCD holder does not arise until and unless CDR lenders decide on the issue as directed by the Hon'ble High Court of Bombay.

The above circumstances have resulted in non payment of dues to the NCD holders, which is beyond the control of the management and thus not in the nature of default.

2.8.2 The Company availed an External Commercial Borrowing ("ECB") facility of US$ 150 Mn. in September 2006. The facility was due for repayment in September 2011. An amount of Rs. 694.86 Cr. (US$

111.21 Mn.) is presently owed to the ECB Lenders.

By way of background, it may be noted that on account of the various factors that adversely affected the Telecom and Power industries (and in particular, the Company), the Company was constrained to restructure its debt under the Corporate Debt Restructuring ("CDR") scheme with effect from July 2011. Pursuant to the terms of the said CDR package, the Company and the ECB lenders also agreed to an indicative term sheet for restructuring of ECB facilities. Even though RBI approval for the restructuring was obtained, due to the contrarian

stands taken by different sets of lenders, the inter- creditor agreement could not be executed.

Pending execution of the documentation (which was being deliberated amongst the CDR lenders, the ECB lenders & the NCD holders), some of the ECB lenders filed an Application for Summary Judgment before the High Court of Justice, Queen's Bench Division, Commercial Court, London ("London High Court"). The London High Court, after hearing the parties, by way of its Order dated February 20, 2015 dismissed the ECB lenders' application for summary judgment on their claim of interest post September 19, 2011 and directed the Company to pay outstanding principal amount of US$ 21,666,667, equivalent to Rs. 135.37 Cr., to the 3 ECB lenders who approached the Court. The Court has also directed payment of GBP 31,500 equivalent to Rs. 0.29 Cr. towards Claimants legal costs by the Company.

2.8.3 Dues payable to Banks for Secured Long Term Loan of Rs. 419.55 Cr. represent overdue amount relating to period June 14 to March 15 (Previous year Rs. 67.19 Cr. relating to period January 2014 to March 2014).

b. Overdue Interest of Rs. 93.75 Cr. relating to the period for December 12, 2011 to March 31, 2015 (previous year Rs. 86.67 Cr. relating to the period December 12, 2011 to March 31,2014) on External Commercial Borrowings.

6.1 GOING CONCERN

The Company''s business activities comprises of two segments viz "Network Services" and "Power Management". During the last few years, the telecom industry has been adversely affected by the general economic slowdown, forcing the operators to substantially curtail capex on rollout of towers. This has an adverse impact on company''s revenue from Network Deployment, Operation and Energy Management and other Network services and consequentially operating margins and cash flow from this segment.

In Power sector, increase in energy cost by Genco''s without commensurate revision in energy price to consumers has adversely affected profitability of Power Management. Coupled with this Company''s inability to incur sufficient capex could not result in achieving desired efficiency and thereby further affecting operating margins and cash flow of said segment.

In view of the above, Company has incurred Cash losses which has resulted in substantial erosion of the Company''s net worth.

The Company is taking various measures such as cost optimisation, renegotiation of contracts with the customers, improving operating efficiency, capex to reduce distribution losses in Power distribution franchises so as to improve Company''s operating margins and cash flows. The management believes that these measures together with expected growth in Telecom sector and overall turnaround in economy will have positive impact on the Company''s business operations and will generate improved margins and cash flows. In view of above, the Company continues to prepare its financial statements on going concern basis, which contemplates realization of assets and settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business.
