2 Significant accounting policiesBasis of presentation of these standalone financial statementsa. Statement of compliance

The standalone financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS) as per the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 and Companies notified under section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013, (the Act), and other relevant provisions of the Act.

The financial statements are approved for issue by the Company''s Board of Directors on May 30, 2023. These standalone financial statements have been prepared for the Company as a going concern on the basis of relevant Ind AS that are effective at the Company''s annual reporting date, March 31, 2023.

b. Basis of Measurement

The standalone financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost convention and on an accrual basis, except for the following material items:

a. Certain financial assets and liabilities (including derivative instruments) measured at fair value;

b. Share based payment transactions and

c. Net defined benefit assets/ (liabilities) are measured at fair value of plan assets, less present value of defined benefit obligations.

c. Use of estimates and judgements

The preparation of the standalone financial statements in conformity with Ind AS requires management to make

judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on a periodic basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimates are revised and in any future periods affected. In particular, information about significant areas of estimation, uncertainty and critical judgments in applying accounting policies that have the significant effect on the amounts recognized in the financial statements.

Judgements

Information about judgements made in applying accounting policies that have the most significant effects on the amounts recognised in the financial statements is included in the following notes:

i) Note k- Useful lives of Property, Plant and Equipment and Intangible Assets;

ii) Note n and Note 31- Measurement of defined benefit obligation; key actuarial assumptions;

iii) Note o- Share based compensation to employees;

iv) Note q- Provision for income taxes and related tax contingencies and Evaluation of recoverability of deferred tax assets.

Assumptions and estimation uncertainties

Information about assumptions and estimation uncertainties that might have a significant risk of resulting in a material adjustment in the year ending March 31,2023 is included in the following notes:

i) Note q- recognition of deferred tax assets: availability of future taxable profit against which tax losses carried forward can be used;

ii) Note r- impairment test of non-financial assets: key assumptions underlying recoverable amounts;

iii) Note i- impairment of financial assets; and

iv) Note s- recognition and measurement of provisions and contingencies: key assumptions about the likelihood and magnitude of an outflow of resources.

d. Functional and presentation currency

The standalone financial statements are presented in Indian Rupee (INR), the national currency of India, which is the functional currency of the Company. The Company

has foreign operations (branches) for which the functional currency is the currency of the primary economic environment in which these entities operates.

e. Foreign currency transactions and balances

Transactions in foreign currency are translated into the respective functional currencies using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the respective transactions.

Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation at the exchange rates prevailing at the reporting date of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in the Statement of Profit and loss and reported within foreign exchange gains/ (losses). Non monetary assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign currency and measured at historical cost are translated at the exchange rate prevalent at the date of transaction.

The financial position of the foreign operations whose functional currency is different from the presentation currency (INR) are recognised in Other Comprehensive Income as Foreign Currency Translation reserve as follows:

a. Assets and liabilities are translated into Indian Rupee (INR) using exchange rate prevailing at the end of each reporting period.

b. Income and expenses are translated at the average exchange rates for the period, unless exchange rates fluctuate significantly during that period, in which case the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions are used."

f. Investment in subsidiaries and associates

Investment in subsidiaries are measured at cost less impairment loss, if any and associates are measured at cost. Dividend income from subsidiaries is recognised when its right to receive the dividend is established.

g. Cash flow

Cash flow Statement has been prepared in accordance with the Indirect method prescribed in Indian Accounting Standard 7-"Statement of cash flows".

h. Cash and cash equivalents

Cash comprises cash on hand and in banks, demand deposits with banks which can be withdrawn at any time without prior notice or penalty on the principal. For the purpose of the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and short-term deposits, as defined above, net of outstanding bank overdrafts as they

are considered an integral part of the Company''s cash management.

i. Financial instruments

Recognition and initial measurement

Trade receivables and debt securities issued are initially recognised when they are originated. All other financial assets and financial liabilities are initially recognised when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

A financial asset or financial liability is initially measured at fair value plus, for an item not at fair value through profit and loss (FVTPL), transaction costs that are directly attributable to its acquisition or issue.

Classification and subsequent measurement

Financial assets

On initial recognition, a financial asset is classified as measured at

— amortised cost;

— FVOCI - debt investment;

— FVOCI - equity investment; or

— FVTPL

Financial assets are not reclassified subsequent to their initial recognition, except if and in the period the Company changes its business model for managing financial assets.

A financial asset is measured at amortised cost if it meets both of the following conditions and is not designated as at FVTPL:

— the asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets to collect contractual cash flows; and

— the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

A debt investment is measured at FVOCI if it meets both of the following conditions and is not designated as at FVTPL:

— the asset is held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets; and

— the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments

of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

On initial recognition of an equity investment that is not held for trading, the Company may irrevocably elect to present subsequent changes in the investment''s fair value in OCI (designated as FVOCI - equity investment). This election is made on an investment- by- investment basis.

All financial assets not classified as measured at amortised cost or FVOCI as described above are measured at FVTPL. This includes all derivative financial assets. On initial recognition, the Company may irrevocably designate a financial asset that otherwise meets the requirements to be measured at amortised cost or at FVOCI as at FVTPL if doing so eliminates or significantly reduces an accounting mismatch that would otherwise arise.

Financial assets: Subsequent measurement and gains and losses

Financial assets at FVTPL

These assets are subsequently measured at fair value. Net gains and losses, including any interest or dividend income, are recognised in statement of profit and loss.

Financial assets at amortised cost

These assets are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. The amortised cost is reduced by impairment losses. Interest income, foreign exchange gains and losses and impairment are recognised in statement of profit and loss. Any gain or loss on derecognition is recognised in statement of profit and loss.

Debt

investments at FVOCI

These assets are subsequently measured at fair value. Interest income under the effective interest method, foreign exchange gains and losses and impairment are recognised in statement of profit and loss. Other net gains and losses are recognised in OCI. On derecognition, gains and losses accumulated in OCI are reclassified to statement of profit and loss.

Equity investments at FVOCI

These assets are subsequently measured at fair value. Dividends are recognised as income in statement of profit and loss unless the dividend clearly represents a recovery of part of the cost of the investment. Other net gains and losses are recognised in OCI and are not reclassified to statement of profit and loss.

Financial liabilities: Classification, subsequent

measurement and gains and losses

Financial liabilities are classified as measured at amortised cost or FVTPL. A financial liability is classified as at FVTPL if it is classified as held- for- trading, or it is a derivative or it is designated as such on initial recognition. Financial liabilities at FVTPL are measured at fair value and net gains and losses, including any interest expense, are recognised in statement of profit and loss. Other financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Interest expense and foreign exchange gains and losses are recognised in statement of profit and loss. Any gain or loss on derecognition is also recognised in statement of profit and loss.

DerecognitionFinancial assets

The Company derecognises a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire, or it transfers the rights to receive the contractual cash flows in a transaction in which substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are transferred or in which the Company neither transfers nor retains substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership and does not retain control of the financial asset. If the Company enters into transactions whereby it transfers assets recognised on its balance sheet, but retains either all or substantially all of the risks and rewards of the transferred assets, the transferred assets are not derecognised.

Financial liabilities

The Company derecognises a financial liability when its contractualobligationsaredischargedorcancelled,orexpire. The Company also derecognises a financial liability when its terms are modified and the cash flows under the modified terms are substantially different. In this case, a new financial liability based on the modified terms is recognised at fair value. The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability extinguished and the new financial liability with modified terms is recognised in statement of profit and loss.

Offsetting

Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount presented in the balance sheet when, and only when, the Company currently has a legally enforceable right to set off the amounts and it intends either to settle

them on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

Derivative financial instruments

The Company holds derivative financial instruments such as foreign exchange forward contracts to mitigate the risk of changes in foreign exchange rates on foreign currency assets and liabilities and forecasted cash flows denominated in foreign currencies. The counterparty to these contracts is generally a bank.

Derivatives are recognised and measured at fair value. Attributable transactions costs are recognised in statement of profit and loss.

j. Property, plant and equipment and intangible assets

Property, plant and equipment and intangible assets are stated at cost of acquisition including taxes, duties, freight directly attributable to make the asset ready for its intended use and other incidental expenses relating to acquisition and installation less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. The cost of an item of property, plant and equipment shall be recognized as an asset if, and only if it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably

Items of property, plant and equipment (including capital-work-in progress) are measured at cost, which includes capitalized borrowing costs, less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Freehold land is The estimated useful lives are as follows:

carried at historical cost less any accumulated impairment losses.

If significant parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, then they are accounted for as separate items (major components) of property, plant and equipment.

Any gain or loss on disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment is recognised in statement of profit and loss. Subsequent expenditure on assets after its purchase is capitalised only it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the entity and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. Assets retired from active use and held for sale are stated at the lower of their net book value and realisable value and disclosed separately.

Capital work in progress is stated at cost and includes the cost of the assets that are not ready for their intended use at the Balance Sheet date.

k. Depreciation and amortisation

Depreciable amount for assets is the cost of an asset, or other amountsubstitutedforcost,lessitsestimatedresidualvalue. Depreciation has been provided on the straight-line method over the useful life as estimated by the management based on technical advice on commercial lives of these assets, which is different from the rates prescribed under Schedule II of the Companies Act, 2013.

Depreciation on additions/(disposals) is provided on a prorata basis i.e. from/ (upto) the date on which asset is ready for use/ (disposed off)

The estimated useful life of the assets are reviewed at the end of each financial year and the amortisation period is revised to reflect the changed pattern, if any.

Individual assets costing less than ? 5,000 are depreciated in full in the year of purchase.


l. LeasesCompany as a lessee

A contract is, or contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. To assess whether a contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset, the Company assesses whether:

- the contract involves the use of an identified asset;

- the Company has the right to obtain substantially all the economic benefits from use of the asset throughout the period of use; and

- the Company has the right to direct the use of the asset.

At inception or on reassessment of a contract that contains a lease component, the Company allocates the consideration in the contract to each lease component on the basis of the relative stand-alone prices of the lease components and the aggregate stand-alone price of the non-lease components.

The Company recognises right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term at the lease commencement date. The cost of the right-of-use asset measured at inception shall comprise of the amount of the initial measurement of the lease liability, adjusted for any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, less any lease incentives received, plus any initial direct costs incurred and an estimate of the costs to be incurred by the lessee in dismantling and removing the underlying asset or restoring the underlying asset or site on which it is located. The Company determines its incremental borrowing rate by obtaining interest rates from various external financing sources and makes certain adjustments to reflect the terms of the lease and type of the asset leased.

The right-of-use asset is subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depreciation, accumulated impairment losses, if any and adjusted for any remeasurement of the lease liability. The right-of-use assets is depreciated using the straight-line method from the commencement date over the shorter of lease term or useful life of right-of-use asset. The estimated useful lives of right-of-use assets are determined on the same basis as those of property, plant and equipment. Right-of-use assets are tested for impairment whenever there is any indication that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. Impairment loss,

if any, is recognised in the standalone statement of profit and loss.

The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at the commencement date, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if that rate cannot be readily determined, the incremental borrowing rate applicable to the entity within the Company. Generally, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate. For leases with reasonably similar characteristics, the Company, on a lease by lease basis, may adopt either the incremental borrowing rate specific to the lease or the incremental borrowing rate for the portfolio as a whole. The lease payments shall include fixed payments, variable lease payments, residual value guarantees, exercise price of a purchase option where the Company is reasonably certain to exercise that option and payments of penalties for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the lessee exercising an option to terminate the lease.

The lease liability is subsequently remeasured by increasing the carrying amount to reflect interest on the lease liability, reducing the carrying amount to reflect the lease payments made and remeasuring the carrying amount to reflect any reassessment or lease modifications or to reflect revised in-substance fixed lease payments.

The Company recognises the amount of the remeasurement of lease liability as an adjustment to the right-of-use asset. Where the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset is reduced to zero and there is a further reduction in the measurement of the lease liability, the Company recognises any remaining amount of the remeasurement in standalone statement of profit and loss.

The Company has elected not to recognise right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for short-term leases of all assets that have a lease term of 12 months or less and leases of low-value assets. The Company recognizes the lease payments associated with these leases as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

m. Revenue from contracts with customers

The Company recognises revenue to depict the provision of services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those services. A 5-step approach is used to recognise revenue as below:

Step 1: Identify the contract(s) with a customer

Step 2: Identify the performance obligation in contract

Step 3: Determine the transaction price

Step 4: Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract

Step 5: Recognise revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation

Revenue from Telecom Value Added Services, net of credit notes, is recognized when a promise in a customer contract (performance obligation) has been satisfied by transferring control as per the terms of revenue sharing arrangements. Control over a promised services refers to the ability to direct the use of, and obtain substantially all of the remaining benefits from, those services. Control is usually transferred when services are received and used. The amount of revenue to be recognized (transaction price) is based on the consideration expected to be received in exchange for services, net of taxes directly linked to sales. If a contract contains more than one performance obligation, the transaction price is allocated to each performance obligation based on their relative stand-alone selling prices.

Revenue from sale of user licences for software application is recognized at point in time when the applications are functionally installed at the customer''s location and customer obtains the control of asset as per the terms of the contracts.

Contract assets are recognised when there is excess of revenue earned over billings on contracts. Contract assets are classified as unbilled receivables (only act of invoicing is pending) when there is unconditional right to receive cash, and only passage of time is required, as per contractual terms.

The Company recognises a deferred income (contract liability) if consideration has been received (or has become receivable) before the Company transfers the promised goods or services to the customer. Deferred income mainly relates to remaining performance obligations in (partially) unsatisfied long-term contracts or are related to amounts the Company expects to receive for goods and services that have not yet been transferred to customers under existing, non-cancellable or otherwise enforceable contracts.

Dividend income and profit on sale of investments

Dividend from subsidiaries is recognised when the Company''s right to receive the payment is established.

Dividend on current investments is recognized on an accrual basis when the right to receive payment is established. Profit on sale of investments is recorded on transfer of title from the Company and is determined as the difference between the sale price and the carrying value of the investment.

Interest income

Interest income is recognised as it accrues in the statement of profit and loss, using the effective interest method.

n. Employee benefits

Employee benefits include provident fund, Employee State Insurance (''ESI''), gratuity fund, compensated absences etc.

a) Short term Obligations: Short-term employee benefits include salaries, social security contributions, short term compensated absences (such as paid annual leave where the absences are expected to occur within twelve months after the end of the period in which the employees render the related employee service), profit sharing and bonuses payable within twelve months after the end of the period in which the employees render the related services and non monetary benefits (such as medical care) etc, for current employees are estimated and measured on an undiscounted basis.

b) Defined contribution plan

The Company''s contribution to provident fund, employee state insurance scheme, social security etc are considered as defined contribution plans and are charged as an expense based on the amount of contribution required to be made as and when services are rendered by the employees.

c) Defined benefit plan

Post employment benefit plans other than defined contribution plans include liabilities for gratuity funded in terms of a scheme administered by the Life Insurance Corporation of India, is determined by using projected unit credit method with actuarial valuation made at the end of each financial year. Provision for liabilities pending remittance to the fund is carried in the balance sheet.

Actuarial gains and losses are recognised in other comprehensive income. Further, the profit or loss does not include an expected return on plan assets. Instead net interest recognised in profit and loss is calculated

by applying a discount rate used to measure the defined benefit obligation to the net defined benefit liability or asset. The actual return on the plan assets above or below the discount rate is recognised as part of re-measurement of net defined liability or asset through other comprehensive income.

Remeasurement comprising actuarial gains and losses and return on plan assets (excluding amounts included in net interest on the net defined benefit liability) are not reclassified to profit or loss in subsequent periods.

d) Long-term liability for compensated absences is provided based on actuarial valuation of the accumulated leave credit outstanding to the employees as on the Balance Sheet date. The Company recognizes actuarial gains and losses immediately in the statement of profit and loss.

o. Share based payments

Employees of the Company receive remuneration in the form of equity settled instruments, for rendering services over a defined vesting period. Equity instruments granted are measured by reference to the fair value of the instrument at the date of grant. The expense is recognised in the Statement of Profit and loss with a corresponding increase to the share based payment reserve, a component of equity.

The equity instruments generally vest in a graded manner over the vesting period. The fair value determined at the grant date is expensed over the vesting period of the respective tranches of such grants (accelerated amortisation).

The grant date fair value of equity-settled share-based payment arrangements granted to employees is generally recognized as an employee benefits expense, with a corresponding increase in equity, over the vesting period of the awards. The amount recognized as an expense is adjusted to reflect the number of awards for which the related service and non-market performance conditions are expected to be met, such that the amount ultimately recognized is based on the number of awards that meet the related service and non-market performance conditions at the vesting date. For share-based payment awards with non-vesting conditions, the grant date fair value of the share-based payment is measured to reflect such conditions and there is no true-up for differences between expected and actual outcomes.

When the terms of an equity-settled award are modified, the minimum expense recognized by the company is the grant date fair value of the unmodified award, provided the vesting conditions (other than a market condition) specified on grant date of the award are met.

Further, additional expense, if any, is measured and recognized as at the date of modification, in case such modification increases the total fair value of the share-based payment plan, or is otherwise beneficial to the employee.

p. Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit (or loss) attributable to the owners of the company by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year.

Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing the profit (considered in determination of basic earnings per share) after considering the effect of interest and other financing costs or income (net of attributable taxes) associated with dilutive potential equity shares by the weighted average number of equity shares considered for deriving basic earnings per share adjusted for the weighted average number of equity shares that would have been issued upon conversion of all dilutive potential equity shares.

q. Income taxes

Income tax expense includes Indian and International income taxes. Income tax comprises of the current tax and net change in deferred tax asset or liability in the year.

Income tax expense is recognised in the statement of profit and loss except to the extent it relates to items directly recognised in other comprehensive income.

a) Current Tax: Current tax comprises the expected tax payable or receivable on the taxable income or loss for the year and any adjustment to the tax payable or receivable in respect of previous years. The amount of current tax payable or receivable is the best estimate of the tax amount expected to be paid or received that reflects uncertainty related to income taxes, if any. It is measured using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.

Current tax assets and liabilities are offset only if there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognized amounts, and it is intended to realize the asset and settle the liability on a net basis or simultaneously

b) Deferred Tax: Deferred tax is recognized in respect of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the corresponding amounts used for taxation purposes. Deferred tax is also recognized in respect of carried forward tax losses and tax credits. Deferred tax is not recognized for:

- temporary differences on the initial recognition of assets or liabilities in a transaction that is not a business combination and that affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss at the time of transaction;

- temporary differences related to investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint arrangements to the extent that the Group is able to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences and it is probable that they will not reverse in the foreseeable future; and

- taxable temporary differences arising on the initial recognition of goodwill

Deferred tax assets are recognized for unused tax losses, unused tax credits and deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which they can be used. Future taxable profits are determined based on the reversal of relevant taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realized; such reductions are reversed when the probability of future taxable profits improves.

Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realized or the liability is settled, based on the laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax liabilities and assets, and they relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority on the same taxable entity, or on different tax entities, but they intend to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis or their tax assets and liabilities will be realized simultaneously

r. Impairment of non-financial assets

Intangible assets that have an indefinite useful life are not subject to amortisation and are tested annually for

impairment, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that they might be impaired. Intangbile assets under development are tested annually for impairment. Other assets are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognised for the amounts by which the asset''s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset''s fair value less costs of disposal and value in use. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash inflows which are largely independent of the cash flows from other assets or group of assets (cash-generating units). Non-financial assets that suffered an impairment are reviewed for possible reversal of the impairment at the end of each reporting period.

s. Current/ Non-current classification

The company classifies an asset as current asset when:

- it expects to realize the asset, or intends to sell or consume it, in its normal operating cycle;

- it holds the asset primarily for the purpose of trading;

- it expects to realize the asset within twelve months after the reporting period; or

- the asset is cash or a cash equivalent unless the asset is restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period.

All other assets are classified as non-current.

A liability is classified as current when :

- it expects to realize the asset, or intends to sell or consume it, in its normal operating cycle;

- it holds the liability primarily for the purpose of trading;

- the liability is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period; or

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

All other liabilities are classified as non-current.

The operating cycle is the time between the acquisition of assets for processing and their realization in cash or cash equivalents. The company''s normal operating cycle is twelve months

t. Provisions, contingent liabilities and commitment

Provisions are recognised when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that and outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.

The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. When some or all of the economic benefits required to settle a provision are expected to be recovered from a third party, the receivable is recognised as an asset, if it is virtually certain that reimbursement will be received and the amount of the receivable can be measured reliably.

The Company uses significant judgements to assess contingent liabilities. Contingent liabilities are recognised 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 or a present obligation that arises from past events where it is either not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation or a reliable estimate of the amount cannot be made.

Contingent assets are neither recognised nor disclosed in the standalone financial statements

u. Cash dividend to equity holders

The Company recognises a liability to make cash to equity holders when the distribution is authorised and the distribution is no longer at the discretion of the Company. As per the corporate laws in India, a distribution is authorised when it is approved by the shareholders. A corresponding amount is recognised directly in equity. Interim dividends are recorded as a liability on the date of declaration by the Company''s Board of Directors.

v. Recent Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS)

Ministry of Corporate Affairs ("MCA") notifies new standards or amendments to the existing standards under Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules as issued from time to time. On March 31, 2023, MCA amended the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Amendment Rules, 2023, as below:

Ind AS 1 - Presentation of Financial Statements

This amendment requires the entities to disclose their material accounting policies rather than their significant accounting policies. The effective date for adoption of this amendment is annual periods beginning on or after April 1, 2023. The Company has evaluated the amendment and the impact of the amendment is insignificant in the standalone financial statements.

Ind AS 8 - Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors

This amendment has introduced a definition of ''accounting estimates'' and included amendments to Ind AS 8 to help entities distinguish changes in accounting policies from changes in accounting estimates. The effective date for adoption of this amendment is annual periods beginning on or after April 1, 2023. The Company has evaluated the amendment and there is no impact on its standalone financial statements.

Ind AS 12 - Income Taxes

This amendment has narrowed the scope of the initial recognition exemption so that it does not apply to transactions that give rise to equal and offsetting temporary differences. The effective date for adoption of this amendment is annual periods beginning on or after April 1, 2023. The Company has evaluated the amendment and there is no impact on its standalone financial statement.


Mar 31, 2018

1 Significant accounting policies

Basis of presentation of these standalone financial statements

a. Statement of compliance

The standalone financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS) as per the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 and Companies notified under section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013, (the Act), and other relevant provisions of the Act.

The financial statements are approved for issue by the Company’s Board of Directors on May 16, 2018.

These standalone financial statements have been prepared for the Company as a going concern on the basis of relevant Ind AS that are effective at the Company’s annual reporting date, March 31, 2018.

b. Basis of Measurement

The standalone financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost convention and on an accrual basis, except for the following material items:

a. Certain financial assets and liabilities (including derivative instruments) measured at fair value;

b. Share based payment transactions and

c. Net defined benefit assets/ (liabilities) are measured at fair value of plan assets, less present value of defined benefit obligations.

c. Use of estimates and judgements

The preparation of the standalone financial statements in conformity with Ind AS requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on a periodic basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimates are revised and in any future periods affected. In particular, information about significant areas of estimation, uncertainty and critical judgments in applying accounting policies that have the significant effect on the amounts recognized in the financial statements.

Judgements

Information about judgements made in applying accounting policies that have the most significant effects on the amounts recognised in the financial statements is included in the following notes:

i) Note k- Useful lives of Property, Plant and Equipment and Intangible Assets;

ii) Note d- Assessment of functional currency;

iii) Note p and Note 30- Measurement of defined benefit obligation; key actuarial assumptions;

iv) Note q- Share based compensation to employees;

v) Note s- Provision for income taxes and related tax contingencies and Evaluation of recoverability of deferred tax assets.

Assumptions and estimation uncertainties

Information about assumptions and estimation uncertainties that might have a significant risk of resulting in a material adjustment in the year ending March 31, 2019 is included in the following notes:

i) Note s- recognition of deferred tax assets: availability of future taxable profit against which tax losses carried forward can be used;

ii) Note t- impairment test of non-financial assets: key assumptions underlying recoverable amounts;

iii) Note i- impairment of financial assets; and

iv) Note u- recognition and measurement of provisions and contingencies: key assumptions about the likelihood and magnitude of an outflow of resources.

d. Functional and presentation currency

The standalone financial statements are presented in Indian Rupee (INR), the national currency of India, which is the functional currency of the Company. The Company has foreign operations (branches) for which the functional currency is the currency of the primary economic environment in which these entities operates.

e. Foreign currency transactions and balances

Transactions in foreign currency are translated into the respective functional currencies using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the respective transactions.

Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation at the exchange rates prevailing at the reporting date of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in the Statement of Profit and loss and reported within foreign exchange gains/ (losses).

Non monetary assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign currency and measured at historical cost are translated at the exchange rate prevalent at the date of transaction.

The financial position of the foreign operations whose functional currency is different from the presentation currency (INR) are recognised in Other Comprehensive Income as Foreign Currency Translation reserve as follows:

a. Assets and liabilities are translated into Indian Rupee (INR) using exchange rate prevailing at the end of each reporting period.

b. Income and expenses are translated at the average exchange rates for the period, unless exchange rates fluctuate significantly during that period, in which case the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions are used.

f. Investment in subsidiaries and associates

Investment in subsidiaries and associates are measured at cost. Dividend income from subsidiaries is recognised when its right to receive the dividend is established.

g. Cash flow

Cash flow Statement has been prepared in accordance with the Indirect method prescribed in Indian Accounting Standard 7-”Statement of cash flows”. The cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities of the Company are segregated based on the available information.

h. Cash and cash equivalents

Cash comprises cash on hand and in banks, demand deposits with banks which can be withdrawn at any time without prior notice or penalty on the principal. For the purpose of the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and short-term deposits, as defined above, net of outstanding bank overdrafts as they are considered an integral part of the Company’s cash management.

Cash dividend to equity holders

The Company recognises a liability to make cash to equity holders when the distribution is authorised and the distribution is no longer at the discretion of the Company. As per the corporate laws in India, a distribution is authorised when it is approved by the shareholders. A corresponding amount is recognised directly in equity.

Interim dividends are recorded as a liability on the date of declaration by the Company’s Board of Directors.

i. Financial instruments

Recognition and initial measurement

Trade receivables and debt securities issued are initially recognised when they are originated. All other financial assets and financial liabilities are initially recognised when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

A financial asset or financial liability is initially measured at fair value plus, for an item not at fair value through profit and loss (FVTPL), transaction costs that are directly attributable to its acquisition or issue.

Classification and subsequent measurement

Financial assets

On initial recognition, a financial asset is classified as measured at

— amortised cost;

— FVOCI - debt investment;

— FVOCI - equity investment; or

— FVTPL

Financial assets are not reclassified subsequent to their initial recognition, except if and in the period the Company changes its business model for managing financial assets.

A financial asset is measured at amortised cost if it meets both of the following conditions and is not designated as at FVTPL:

— the asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets to collect contractual cash flows; and

— the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

A debt investment is measured at FVOCI if it meets both of the following conditions and is not designated as at FVTPL:

— the asset is held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets; and

— the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

On initial recognition of an equity investment that is not held for trading, the Company may irrevocably elect to present subsequent changes in the investment’s fair value in OCI (designated as FVOCI - equity investment). This election is made on an investment- by- investment basis.

All financial assets not classified as measured at amortised cost or FVOCI as described above are measured at FVTPL. This includes all derivative financial assets. On initial recognition, the Company may irrevocably designate a financial asset that otherwise meets the requirements to be measured at amortised cost or at FVOCI as at FVTPL if doing so eliminates or significantly reduces an accounting mismatch that would otherwise arise.

Financial assets: Subsequent measurement and gains and losses

Financial liabilities: Classification, subsequent measurement and gains and losses

Financial liabilities are classified as measured at amortised cost or FVTPL. A financial liability is classified as at FVTPL if it is classified as held- for- trading, or it is a derivative or it is designated as such on initial recognition. Financial liabilities at FVTPL are measured at fair value and net gains and losses, including any interest expense, are recognised in statement of profit and loss. Other financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Interest expense and foreign exchange gains and losses are recognised in statement of profit and loss. Any gain or loss on derecognition is also recognised in statement of profit and loss.

Derecognition Financial assets

The Company derecognises a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire, or it transfers the rights to receive the contractual cash flows in a transaction in which substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are transferred or in which the Company neither transfers nor retains substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership and does not retain control of the financial asset.

If the Company enters into transactions whereby it transfers assets recognised on its balance sheet, but retains either all or substantially all of the risks and rewards of the transferred assets, the transferred assets are not derecognised.

Financial liabilities

The Company derecognises a financial liability when its contractual obligations are discharged or cancelled, or expire.

The Company also derecognises a financial liability when its terms are modified and the cash flows under the modified terms are substantially different. In this case, a new financial liability based on the modified terms is recognised at fair value. The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability extinguished and the new financial liability with modified terms is recognised in statement of profit and loss.

Offsetting

Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount presented in the balance sheet when, and only when, the Company currently has a legally enforceable right to set off the amounts and it intends either to settle them on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

Derivative financial instruments

The Company holds derivative financial instruments such as foreign exchange forward contracts to mitigate the risk of changes in foreign exchange rates on foreign currency assets and liabilities and forecasted cash flows denominated in foreign currencies. The counterparty to these contracts is generally a bank.

Derivatives are recognised and measured at fair value. Attributable transactions costs are recognised in statement of profit and loss.

j. Property , plant and equipment and intangible assets

Property, plant and equipment and intangible assets are stated at cost of acquisition including taxes, duties, freight directly attributable to make the asset ready for its intended use and other incidental expenses relating to acquisition and installation less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any.

If significant parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, then they are accounted for as separate items (major components) of property, plant and equipment.

Any gain or loss on disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment is recognised in statement of profit and loss.

Subsequent expenditure on assets after its purchase is capitalised only if such expenditure results in an increase in the future benefits from such asset beyond its previously assessed standard of performance. Assets retired from active use and held for sale are stated at the lower of their net book value and realisable value and disclosed separately.

Capital work in progress is stated at cost and includes the cost of the assets that are not ready for their intended use at the Balance Sheet date.

k. Depreciation and amortisation

Depreciable amount for assets is the cost of an asset, or other amount substituted for cost, less its estimated residual value.

Depreciation has been provided on the straight-line method over the useful life as estimated by the management based on technical advice on commercial lives of these assets, which is different from the rates prescribed under Schedule II of the Companies Act, 2013.

The estimated useful lives are as follows:

The estimated useful life of the assets are reviewed at the end of each financial year and the amortisation period is revised to reflect the changed pattern, if any.

Individual assets costing less than Rs.5,000 are depreciated in full in the year of purchase.

l. Leasing

Leases are classified as finance leases whenever the terms of the lease transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the lessee. All other leases are classified as operating leases.

As lessor

Rental Income from operating leases is generally recognised on an straight - line basis over the term of the relevant lease. where the rentals are structured solely to increase in line with expected general inflation to compensate for the Company’s expected inflationary cost increases, such increases are recognised in the year in which such benefits accrue.

As lessee

Rental expense from operating leases is generally recognised on a straight-line basis over the term of the relevant lease. Where the rentals are structured solely to increase in line with expected general inflation to compensate for the lessor’s expected inflationary cost increases, such increases are recognised in the year in which such expense accrue. Contingent rentals arising under operating leases are recognised as an expense in the period in which they are incurred.”

m. Revenue recognition

Revenue from Telecom Value Added Services, net of credit notes, is recognized on providing the services in terms of revenue sharing arrangements with the telecom operators and recovery of the consideration is probable.

Revenue from sale of user licences for software application is recognized when the applications are functionally installed at the customer’s location as per the terms of the contracts.

Revenue from other Services including maintenance services is recognized proportionately over the period during which the services are rendered as per the terms of contract.

n. Dividend income and profit on sale of investments

Dividend from subsidiaries is recognised when the Company’s right to receive the payment is established.

Dividend on current investments is recognized on an accrual basis when the right to receive payment is established. Profit on sale of investments is recorded on transfer of title from the Company and is determined as the difference between the sale price and the carrying value of the investment.

o. Interest income

Interest income is recognised as it accrues in the statement of profit and loss, using the effective interest method.

p. Employee benefits

Employee benefits include provident fund, ESIC, gratuity fund, compensated absences etc.

a) Short term Obligations: Short-term employee benefits include salaries, social security contributions, short term compensated absences (such as paid annual leave where the absences are expected to occur within twelve months after the end of the period in which the employees render the related employee service), profit sharing and bonuses payable within twelve months after the end of the period in which the employees render the related services and non monetary benefits (such as medical care) etc, for current employees are estimated and measured on an undiscounted basis.

b) Defined contribution plan

The Company’s contribution to provident fund, employee state insurance scheme, social security etc are considered as defined contribution plans and are charged as an expense based on the amount of contribution required to be made as and when services are rendered by the employees.

c) Defined benefit plan

Post employment benefit plans other than defined contribution plans include liabilities for gratuity funded in terms of a scheme administered by the Life Insurance Corporation of India, is determined by using projected unit credit method with actuarial valuation made at the end of each financial year. Provision for liabilities pending remittance to the fund is carried in the balance sheet.

Actuarial gains and losses are recognised in other comprehensive income. Further, the profit or loss does not include an expected return on plan assets. Instead net interest recognised in profit and loss is calculated by applying a discount rate used to measure the defined benefit obligation to the net defined benefit liability or asset. The actual return on the plan assets above or below the discount rate is recognised as part of re-measurement of net defined liability or asset through other comprehensive income.

Remeasurement comprising actuarial gains and losses and return on plan assets (excluding amounts included in net interest on the net defined benefit liability) are not reclassified to profit or loss in subsequent periods.

d) Long-term liability for compensated absences is provided based on actuarial valuation of the accumulated leave credit outstanding to the employees as on the Balance Sheet date. The Company recognizes actuarial gains and losses immediately in the statement of profit and loss.

q. Share based payments

Employees of the Company receive remuneration in the form of equity settled instruments, for rendering services over a defined vesting period. Equity instruments granted are measured by reference to the fair value of the instrument at the date of grant.

The expense is recognised in the Statement of Profit and loss with a corresponding increase to the share based payment reserve, a component of equity.

The equity instruments generally vest in a graded manner over the vesting period. The fair value determined at the grant date is expensed over the vesting period of the respective tranches of such grants (accelerated amortisation).

r. Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed using the weighted-average number of equity and dilutive equivalent shares outstanding during the period, using the treasury stock method for options and warrants, except where the results would be anti-dilutive.

s. Income taxes

Income tax expense includes Indian and International income taxes. Income tax comprises of the current tax and net change in deferred tax asset or liability in the year. Income tax expense is recognised in the statement of profit and loss except to the extent it relates to items directly recognised in other comprehensive income.

a) Current Tax: Provision for current tax is made taking into account the admissible deductions/allowances and is subject to revision based on the taxable income for the fiscal year ending 31 March each year. Provision for taxation includes tax liabilities in India on the Company’s global income as reduced by exempted income and any tax liabilities arising overseas on income sourced from those countries.

b) Deferred Tax: Deferred tax is recognised using balance sheet approach. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognised for deductible and taxable temporary differences arising between the tax base if assets and liabilities and their carrying amount in the financial statements, except when the deferred income tax arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and affects neither accounting nor taxable profits or loss at the time of the transaction.

Deferred income tax asset are recognised to the extent that is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, and the carry forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilised.

Deferred income tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences.

The carrying amount of deferred income 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 is realised, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or subsequently enacted by the end of the reporting period.

t. Impairment of non-financial assets

Goodwill and intangible assets that have an indefinite useful life are not subject to amortisation and are tested annually for impairment, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that they might be impaired. Other assets are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognised for the amounts by which the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs of disposal and value in use. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash inflows which are largely independent of the cash flows from other assets or group of assets (cash-generating units). Non-financial assets other than goodwill that suffered an impairment are reviewed for possible reversal of the impairment at the end of each reporting period.

u. Provisions

Provisions are recognised when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that and outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.

The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation.

When some or all of the economic benefits required to settle a provision are expected to be recovered from a third party, the receivable is recognised as an asset, if it is virtually certain that reimbursement will be received and the amount of the receivable can be measured reliably.

v. Recent Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS)

Ministry of Corporate Affairs (““MCA”“) through Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Amendment Rules, 2018 has notified the following new and amendments to Ind AS which the Company has not applied as they are effective for annual periods beginning on or after April 1, 2018:

Ind AS 115 Revenue from Contracts with Customers

Ind AS 21 The effect of changes in Foreign Exchange rates

Ind AS 115 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers

Ind AS 115 establishes a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers. Ind AS 115 will supersede the current revenue recognition standard Ind AS 18 Revenue, Ind AS 11 Construction Contracts when it becomes effective.

The core principle of Ind AS 115 is that an entity should recognise revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Specifically, the standard introduces a 5-step approach to revenue recognition.

Under Ind AS 115, an entity recognises revenue when (or as) a performance obligation is satisfied, i.e. when ‘control’ of the goods or services underlying the particular performance obligation is transferred to the customer.

The Company is evaluating the possible impact of Ind AS 115 and will adopt the standard effective April 1, 2018. The standard allows for two methods of adoption: the full retrospective adoption, which requires the standard to be applied to each prior period presented, or the modified retrospective adoption, which requires the cumulative effect of adoption to be recognized as an adjustment to opening retained earnings in the period of adoption.

The Company does not expect the impact of the adoption of the new standard to be material.

Ind AS 21 - The effect of changes in Foreign Exchange rates

The amendment clarifies on the accounting of transactions that include the receipt or payment of advance consideration in a foreign currency. The appendix explains that the date of the transaction, for the purpose of determining the exchange rate, is the date of initial recognition of the non-monetary prepayment asset or deferred income liability. If there are multiple payments or receipts in advance, a date of transaction is established for each payment or receipt. The Company is evaluating the impact of this amendment on its financial statements.

2 Significant Accounting Policies

a. Statement of Compliance

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS) notified under the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 and Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Amendment Rules, 2016 as applicable. These financial statements up to year ended 31 March 2016 were prepared in accordance with the accounting standards notified under Companies (Accounting Standards) Rules, 2006 (Previous GAAP). Reconciliation and description of the effect of the transition to Ind AS from Previous GAAP is given in Note 47 and Note 48.

b. Basis of Presentation and Disclosure

The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost convention and on an accrual basis, except for the following material items that have been measured at fair value as required by relevant Ind AS:

a. Derivative financial instruments

b. Certain financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value (refer accounting policy on financial instruments)

c. Share based payment transactions and

d. Defined benefit and other long term employee benefits"

c. Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Ind AS requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on a periodic basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimates are revised and in any future periods affected. In particular, information about significant areas of estimation, uncertainty and critical judgments in applying accounting policies that have the significant effect on the amounts recognized in the financial statements is included in the following notes:

i) Useful lives of Property, Plant and Equipment and Intangible Assets: As described at Note (k.) below, the Company reviews the estimated useful lives of property, plant and equipment at the end of each reporting period.

ii) Fair value measurements and valuation processes: In estimating the fair value of an asset or a liability, the Company uses market-observable data to the extent it is available. Where level 1 inputs are not available, the Company engages third party qualified values to perform the valuation. The cross functional team of the Company works closely with the value to establish the appropriate valuation techniques and inputs to the model. The Chief Financial Officer reports the finding to the board of directors of the Company every quarter to explain the cause of fluctuations in the fair value of the assets and liabilities.

iii) Other estimates: The preparation of financial statements involves estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets, liabilities, disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses for the reporting period. Specifically, the Company estimates the probability of collection of accounts receivable by analyzing historical payment patterns, customer concentrations, customer credit-worthiness and current economic trends. If the financial condition of a customer deteriorates, additional allowances may be required.

iv) Employee benefits: The cost of defined benefit plans are determined using actuarial valuation. The actuarial valuation involves making assumptions about discount rates, expected rates of return on assets, future salary increases, mortality rates and future pension increases. Due to long term nature of these plans, such estimates are subject to significant uncertainty.

v) Share based compensation to employees: The Company has granted share based payment plans to its employees. Valuation models are used to calculate the expense for such share based compensation to employees. These models require a number of assumptions to be made as inputs. These include financial assumptions as well as various assumptions around individual employee behavior."

d. Functional and presentation currency

The financial statements are presented in Indian Rupee, the national currency of India, which is the presentation and functional currency of the Company. The Company has foreign operations (branches) for which the functional currency is the currency of the primary economic environment in which these entities operates.

e. Foreign currency transactions and balances

Transactions in foreign currency are translated into the respective functional currencies using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the respective transactions. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation at the exchange rates prevailing at the reporting date of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognized in the Statement of Profit and loss and reported within foreign exchange gains/ (losses). Non monetary assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign currency and measured at historical cost are translated at the exchange rate prevalent at the date of transaction. The financial position of the foreign operations whose functional currency is different from the presentation currency (INR) are recognized in Other Comprehensive Income as Foreign Currency Translation reserve as follows:

a. Assets and liabilities are translated into Indian Rupee (INR) using exchange rate prevailing at the end of each reporting period.

b. Income and expenses are translated at the average exchange rates for the period, unless exchange rates fluctuate significantly during that period, in which case the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions are used."

f. Investment in subsidiaries and associates

Investment in subsidiaries and associates are measured at cost. Dividend income from subsidiaries is recognized when its right to receive the dividend is established.

g. Cash Flow

Cash Flow Statement has been prepared in accordance with the Indirect method prescribed in Indian Accounting Standard 7 - “Statement of Cash Flows". The cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities of the Company are segregated based on the available information.

h. Cash and cash equivalents

Cash comprises cash on hand and in banks, demand deposits with banks which can be withdrawn at any time without prior notice or penalty on the principal.

i. Financial instruments

All financial instruments are recognized initially at fair value. Transaction costs that are attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset (other than financial assets recorded at fair value through profit or loss) are included in the fair value of the financial assets. Purchase or sales of financial assets that require delivery of assets within a time frame established by regulation or convention in the market place (regular way trade) are recognized on trade date. While, loans and borrowings and payables are recognized net of directly attributable transaction costs.

For the purpose of subsequent measurement, financial instruments of the Company are classified in the following categories: non-derivative financial assets , debt instruments comprising amortized cost, equity instruments at fair value through profit and loss account (FVTPL), non derivative financial liabilities at amortized cost or FVTPL and derivative financial instruments (under the category of financial assets or financial liabilities) at FVTPL.

The classification of financial instruments depends on the objective of the business model for which it is held. Management determines the classification of its financial instruments at initial recognition.

a) Non-derivative financial assets

(i) Financial assets at amortized cost

A financial asset is measured at amortized cost if both of the following conditions are met:

(a) the financial asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows and

(b) the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest (SPPI) on the principal amount outstanding.

They are presented as current assets, except for those maturing later than 12 months after the reporting date which are presented as non-current assets. Financial assets are measured initially at fair value plus transaction costs and subsequently carried at amortized cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment loss.

(ii) Debt instruments at Amortized cost

Assets that are held for collection of contractual cash flows where those cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest are measured at amortized cost. A gain or loss on a debt instrument that is subsequently measured at amortized cost is recognized in profit or loss when the asset is derecognized or impaired. Interest income from these financial assets is included in "Other income" using the effective interest rate method.

(iii) Financial assets at FVTPL

FVTPL is a residual category for financial assets. Any financial asset which does not meet the criteria for categorization as at amortized cost or as fiar value through Other Comprehensive Income (FVTOCI), is classified as FVTPL."

Financial assets included within the FVTPL category are measured at fair values with all changes in the statement of profit and loss.

Impairment ot financial assets

The Company recognizes loss allowances using the expected credit loss (ECL) model for the financial assets which are not fair valued through profit or loss. The Company follows ''simplified approach'' for recognition of impairment loss allowance on trade receivable with no significant financing component is measured at an amount equal to life time ECL. For all other financial assets, expected credit losses are measured at an amount equal to the 12-month ECL, unless there has been a significant increase in credit risk from initial recognition in which case those are measured at lifetime ECL. The amount of expected credit losses (or reversal) that is required to adjust the loss allowance at the reporting date to the amount that is required to be recognized is recognized as an impairment gain or loss in profit or loss."

b) Equity instruments

An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of an entity after deducting all of its liabilities. Equity instruments issued by a Company are recognized at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs.

Repurchase of the Company''s own equity instruments is recognized and deducted directly in equity. No gain or loss is recognized in profit or loss on the purchase, sale, issue or cancellation of the Company''s own equity instruments

c) Non-derivative financial liabilities

(i) Financial liabilities at amortized cost

Financial liabilities at amortized cost represented by borrowings, trade and other payables are initially recognized at fair value, and subsequently carried at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method.

(ii) Financial asset at Fair value through Other Comprehensive Income (FVTOCI)

The Company has elected not to present any subsequent changes in the fair value of equity instruments in OCI.

(iii) Financial liabilities at FVTPL

The Company does not have any Financial liabilities designated at FVTPL.

d) Derivative Financial instruments

The Company holds derivative financial instruments such as foreign exchange forward contracts to mitigate the risk of changes in foreign exchange rates on foreign currency assets and liabilities and forecasted cash flows denominated in foreign currencies. The counterparty to these contracts is generally a bank. Derivatives are recognized and measured at fair value. Attributable transactions costs are recognized in statement of profit and loss.

j. Property , Plant and Equipment and Intangible Assets

Property, Plant and Equipment and Intangible Assets are stated at cost of acquisition including taxes, duties, freight directly attributable to make the asset ready for its intended use and other incidental expenses relating to acquisition and installation. Subsequent expenditure on assets after its purchase is capitalized only if such expenditure results in an increase in the future benefits from such asset beyond its previously assessed standard of performance. Assets retired from active use and held for sale are stated at the lower of their net book value and realizable value and disclosed separately.

Capital work in progress is stated at cost and includes the cost of the assets that are not ready for their intended use at the Balance Sheet date."

k. Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciable amount for assets is the cost of an asset, or other amount substituted for cost, less its estimated residual value. Depreciation has been provided on the straight-line method over the useful life as estimated by the management based on technical advice on commercial lives of these assets.

The estimated useful life of the assets are reviewed at the end of each financial year and the amortization period is revised to reflect the changed pattern, if any.

Individual assets costing less than Rs,5,000/- are depreciated in full in the year of purchase.

l. Leasing

Leases are classified as finance leases whenever the terms of the lease transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the lessee. All other leases are classified as operating leases.

As less or

Rental Income from operating leases is generally recognized on an straight - line basis over the term of the relevant lease, where the rentals are structured solely to increase in line with expected general inflation to compensate for the Company''s expected inflationary cost increases, such increases are recognized in the year in which such benefits accrue.

As lessee

Rental expense from operating leases is generally recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the relevant lease. Where the rentals are structured solely to increase in line with expected general inflation to compensate for the less or’s expected inflationary cost increases, such increases are recognized in the year in which such expense accrue. Contingent rentals arising under operating leases are recognized as an expense in the period in which they are incurred.

m. Revenue Recognition

Revenue from Telecom Value Added Services, net of credit notes, is recognized on providing the services in terms of revenue sharing arrangements with the telecom operators.

Revenue from sale of user licenses for software application is recognized when the applications are functionally installed at the customer''s location as per the terms of the contracts.

Revenue from Other Services including maintenance services is recognized proportionately over the period during which the services are rendered as per the terms of contract.

n. Dividend Income

Dividend on current investments is recognized on an accrual basis when the right to receive payment is established. Profit on sale of investments is recorded on transfer of title from the Company and is determined as the difference between the sale price and the carrying value of the investment.

o. Interest Income

Interest income is recognized as it accrues in the statement of profit and loss, using the effective interest method.

p. Employee Benefits

Employee benefits include provident fund, ESIC, gratuity fund, compensated absences etc.

a) Short term Obligations: Short-term employee benefits include salaries, social security contributions, short term compensated absences (such as paid annual leave where the absences are expected to occur within twelve months after the end of the period in which the employees render the related employee service), profit sharing and bonuses payable within twelve months after the end of the period in which the employees render the related services and non monetary benefits (such as medical care) etc, for current employees are estimated and measured on an undiscounted basis.

b) Defined Contribution Plan

The Company''s contribution to provident fund, employee state insurance scheme, social security etc are considered as defined contribution plans and are charged as an expense based on the amount of contribution required to be made as and when services are rendered by the employees.

c) Defined Benefit Plan

Post employment benefit plans other than Defined Contribution Plans include liabilities for gratuity funded in terms of a scheme administered by the Life Insurance Corporation of India, is determined by using Projected Unit Credit method with Actuarial Valuation made at the end of each financial year. Provision for liabilities pending remittance to the fund is carried in the Balance Sheet.

Actuarial gains and losses are recognized in Other Comprehensive Income. Further, the profit or loss does not include an expected return on plan assets. Instead net interest recognized in profit and loss is calculated by applying a discount rate used to measure the defined benefit obligation to the net defined benefit liability or asset. The actual return on the plan assets above or below the discount rate is recognized as part of re-measurement of net defined liability or asset through other comprehensive income. Remeasurement comprising actuarial gains and losses and return on plan assets (excluding amounts included in net interest on the net defined benefit liability) are not reclassified to profit or loss in subsequent periods.

d) Long-term liability for compensated absences is provided based on actuarial valuation of the accumulated leave credit outstanding to the employees as on the Balance Sheet date. The Company recognizes actuarial gains and losses immediately in the statement of profit and loss.

q. Share Based Payments

Employees of the Company receive remuneration in the form of equity settled instruments, for rendering services over a defined vesting period. Equity instruments granted are measured by reference to the fair value of the instrument at the date of grant.

The expense is recognized in the Statement of Profit and loss with a corresponding increase to the share based payment reserve, a component of equity. The equity instruments generally vest in a graded manner over the vesting period . The fair value determined at the grant date is expensed over the vesting period of the respective tranches of such grants ( accelerated amortization )."

r. 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.

Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing the profit / (loss) after tax (including the post tax effect of extraordinary items, if any) as adjusted for dividend, interest and other charges to expense or income (net of any attributable taxes) relating to the dilutive potential equity shares, by the weighted average number of equity shares considered for deriving basic earnings per share and the weighted average number of equity shares which could have been issued on the conversion of all dilutive potential equity shares. Potential equity shares are deemed to be dilutive only if their conversion to equity shares would decrease the net profit per share from continuing ordinary operations. Potential dilutive equity shares are deemed to be converted as at the beginning of the period, unless they have been issued at a later date. The dilutive potential equity shares are adjusted for the proceeds receivable had the shares been actually issued at fair value (i.e. average market value of the outstanding shares). Dilutive potential equity shares are determined independently for each period presented. The number of equity shares and potentially dilutive equity shares are adjusted for share splits / reverse share splits and bonus shares, as appropriate.

s. Income Tax

Income tax expense includes Indian and International income taxes. Income tax comprises of the current tax and net change in deferred tax asset or liability in the year. Income tax expense is recognized in the statement of profit and loss except to the extent it relates to items directly recognized in other comprehensive income.

a) Current Tax: Provision for current tax is made taking into account the admissible deductions/allowances and is subject to revision based on the taxable income for the fiscal year ending 31 March each year. Provision for taxation includes tax liabilities in India on the Company''s global income as reduced by exempted income and any tax liabilities arising overseas on income sourced from those countries.

b) Deferred Tax: Deferred tax is recognized using balance sheet approach. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for deductible and taxable temporary differences arising between the tax base if assets and liabilities and their carrying amount in the financial statements, except when the deferred income tax arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and affects neither accounting nor taxable profits or loss at the time of the transaction.

Deferred income tax asset are recognized to the extent that is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, and the carry forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilized.

Deferred income tax liabilities are recognized for all taxable temporary differences.

The carrying amount of deferred income 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 is realized, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or subsequently enacted by the end of the reporting period.

t. Impairment of tangible and intangible assets

Goodwill and intangible assets that have an indefinite useful life are not subject to amortization and are tested annually for impairment, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that they might be impaired. Other assets are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized for the amounts by which the asset''s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset''s fair value less costs of disposal and value in use. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash inflows which are largely independent of the cash flows from other assets or group of assets (cash-generating units). Non-financial assets other than goodwill that suffered an impairment are reviewed for possible reversal of the impairment at the end of each reporting period.

u. Provisions

Provisions are recognized when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that and outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.

The amount recognized as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation.

When some or all of the economic benefits required to settle a provision are expected to be recovered from a third party, the receivable is recognized as an asset, if it is virtually certain that reimbursement will be received and the amount of the receivable can be measured reliably.

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 fows to their present value based on an appropriate discount factor. When there is indication that an impairment loss recognized for an asset (other than a revalued 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, to the extent the amount was previously charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss. In case of revalued assets such reversal is not recognized.
