l) Income Taxes

The accounting treatment for income-tax in respect of the company''s income is based on the Accounting Standard 22 on ''Accounting for Taxes on Income'' as notified by the Companies (Accounting Standards) Rules, 2006. The provision made for income-tax in the accounts comprises both, the current tax and the deferred tax. The deferred tax assets and liabilities for the year, arising on account of timing differences, are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss and the cumulative effect thereof is reflected in the Balance Sheet.

Deferred tax is measured based on the tax rates and the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the Balance Sheet date. Deferred tax asset is recognised only to the extent that there is certainty that sufficient future taxable income will be available against which such deferred tax asset can be realised. In situations where the company has unabsorbed depreciation or carried forward losses, deferred tax assets are recognised only if there is virtual certainty supported by convincing evidence that the same can be realised against future taxable profits.

Minimum Alternate Tax (MAT):

Mat is recognised as an asset only when and to the extend there is convincing evidence that the company will pay normal income tax during the specified period. In the year in which the MAT credit becomes eligible to be recognised as an asset in accordance with the recommendations contained in the Guidance Note issued by ICAI, the said asset is created by way of credit to the statement of Profit and Loss and is shown as MAT Credit Entitlement. The Company reviews the same at each Balance sheet date and writes down the carrying amount of MAT Credit Entitlement to the extend there is no longer convincing evidence to the effect that company will pay normal Income Tax during the specified period.

m) Investments

Investments, that are intended to be held for not more than one year, are classified as current investments. All other investments are classified as long term investments/ non- current investments.

Long-term investments are carried cost after deducting provisions made, if any, for diminution in value of investments other than temporary, determined separately for each individual investment. Current investments are carried at lower of cost and fair value determined for each category of investments.

n) Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and Cash Equivalents for the purpose of Cash Flow Statement includes cash in hand, Balances with Banks and Fixed deposits with banks.

o) Impairment of Assets

The carrying amount of assets are reviewed at each balance sheet date, if there is an indication of impairment based on internal and external factors.

An asset is treated as impaired when the carrying cost of the asset exceeds its recoverable amount. An asset''s recoverable amount is the higher of an assets net selling price and value in use. Value in use is the present value of estimated value of estimated future cash flows expected to arise from the continuing use of an asset and from its disposal at the end of its useful life. Net selling price is the amount obtainable from sale of the asset in an arms length transaction between knowledgeable, willing parties, less the costs of disposal.

An impairment loss, if any, is charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss in the year in which the asset is identified as impaired. Impairment loss recognised in prior years is reversed when there is an indication that impairment loss recognised for the asset no longer exists or has decreased.

The carrying amounts of assets are reviewed at each Balance Sheet date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount is estimated at the higher of net realisable value and value in use. Impairment loss is recognised wherever carrying amount exceeds the recoverable amount.

p) Provisions, Contingent Liabilities & Contingent Assets

Provisions are recognised when there is 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. These are reviewed at each Balance Sheet date and adjusted to reflect the current best estimate.

A present obligation that arises from past events where it is either not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle or a reliable estimate of the amount cannot be made, is disclosed as a contingent liability. Contingent liabilities are also disclosed when there is a possible obligation arising from past events, the existence of which will be confirmed only by the occurrence or non- occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of the Company.

Claims against the Company where the possibility of any outflow of resources in settlement is remote, are not disclosed as contingent liabilities.

Contingent Liabilities are not recognised but disclosed and Contingent Assets are neither recognised nor disclosed, in the financial statements.
