purchase taxes, after deducting trade discounts and rebates; (b) any costs directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location
and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management; (c) the initial estimate of the costs
of dismantling and removing the item and restoring the site on which it is located, the obligation for which an entity incurs either
when the item is acquired or as a consequence of having used the item during a particular period for purposes other than to produce
inventories during that period.
The cost of a self-constructed item of property, plant and equipment comprises the cost of materials and direct labour, any other cost
directly attributable to bringing the item to working condition for its intended use.
The cost of improvements to leasehold premises, if recognition criteria are met, are capitalized and disclosed separately under
leasehold improvement.
An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognized upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise
from the continued use of the asset. Any gain or loss arising on the disposal and retirement of an item of property, plant and
equipment is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset is recognized in Statement
of profit and loss.
Subsequent cost
Subsequent costs are included in the asset''s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is
probable that the future economic benefits associated with expenditure will flow to the Company and the cost of the item can be
measured reliably. All other subsequent cost are charged to Statement of profit and loss at the time of incurrence.
Depreciation
Depreciation on PPE is provided on the Written down value method computed on the basis of useful life prescribed in Schedule II to
the Companies Act, 2013 (âSchedule IIâ) on a pro-rata basis from the date the asset is ready to put to use.
The residual values, useful lives and methods of depreciation of property plant and equipment are reviewed by management at each

discounts and all other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. Provision is made for items
which arc not likely to be consumed and other anticipated losses wherever considered necessary. The comparison of cost and NRV
for traded goods is made on at item Company level basis at each reporting date.
2.6 LEASES
Lease payments in respect of assets taken on operating lease are charged lo the Statement of profit and loss on a straight-line basis
over the period of the lease unless the payments arc structured to increase in line with the expected general inflation to compensate
the lessor''s expected inflationary cost increases, if any. However, there is no lease payments during the period under consideration.
2.7 BORROWING COSTS

extended period in which active development is interrupted. Capitalization of borrowing costs is ceased when substantially all the
activities necessary lo prepare the qualifying asset for its intended use or sale are complete. Other borrowing costs are charged to
statement of profit and loss as and when incurred.
2.8 IMPAIRMENT OF ASSETS
At each reporting date, the Company reviews the carrying amounts of its non-financial assets to determine whether there is any
indication of impairment. If any such indication of impairment exists, then the asset''s recoverable amount is estimated. For
impairment testing, assets are grouped together into the smallest group of assets that generates cash inflows from continuing use that
are largely independent of the cash inflows of other assets or cash generating units (âCGUâ).
The recoverable amount of an asset or CGU is the greater of its value in use and its fair value less costs to sell. Value in use is based
on the estimated future cash flows, discounted to their present value using a discount rate that reflects current market assessments of
the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset or CGU. An impairment loss is recognized if the carrying amount of an
asset or CGU exceeds its estimated recoverable amount.
Impairment losses are recognized in the Statement of profit and loss. They are allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any
goodwill allocated to the CGU and then to reduce the carrying amounts of the other assets in the CGU on a pro-rata basis.
For other assets, an impairment loss is reversed only if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable
amount. Such a reversal is made only to the extent that the asset''s carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would
have been determined, net of depreciation or amortization, if no impairment loss had been recognized
