The Company has ascertained its operating cycle as 12 months for the purpose of current - non current classification of assets and liabilities.

2.2 Tangible Assets

Tangible assets are stated at acquisition cost, net of accumulated depreciation. Subsequent expenditures related to an item of fixed asset are added to its book value only if they increase the future benefits from the existing asset beyond its previously assessed standard of performance.

2.3 Depreciation

During the current year to conform to the requirements of the schedule II of Companies Act, 2013, the Company has recalculated the useful life of the assets as on 1st April 2014. The company has taken the residual value of the assets equal to the maximum of 5% allowed as per the schedule II for all the assets. Accordingly the depreciation for the current year has been calculated for the assets whose useful life have not expired. For those assets for which the remaining useful life is nil as on 1st April 2014, the carrying amount of the asset after retaining the residual value has been transferred to the Statement of Profit and Loss.

2.4 Impairment of Assets

Assessment is done at each balance sheet date as to whether there is any indication that an asset (tangible and intangible) may be impaired. For the purpose of assessing impairment, the smallest identifiable group of assets that generates cash inflows from continuing use that are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets, is considered as a cash generating unit. If any such indication exists, an estimate of the recoverable amount of asset/cash generating unit is made. Assets whose carrying value exceeds their recoverable amount are written down to the recoverable amount. Recoverable amount is higher of an asset's or cash generating unit's net selling price and its value in use. Value in use is the present value of estimated future cash flows expected to arise from the continuing use of asset and from its disposal at the end of its useful life. Assessment is also done at each balance sheet date as to whether there is any indication that an impairment loss recognised for an asset in prior accounting periods may no longer exist or may have decreased.

2.5 Investments

Investments that are readily realisable and are intended to be held for not more than one year from the date, on which such investments are made, are classified as current investments.
