It has been operating in the spheres of Software product development, training and software services since its inception. The Equity shares of the company are listed in BSE Limited (BSE) since 1996. T he Registered address of company is 31P and 32, Ramky Selenium, Financial District, Nanakramguda, Hyderabad, TG -500032
These financial statements are prepared in accordance with the generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) in India and in compliance with the Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS) Specified under section 133 of the Companies Act 2013("the Act") read with rule 3 of the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 , the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) (Amendment) Rules, 2017 and other provisions to the Act, to the extent notified and applicable as well as applicable guidance notes and pronouncements of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (the ICAI).
Accounting policies have been consistently applied except where a newly issued accounting standard is initially adopted or a revision to an existing accounting standard requires a change in the accounting policy hitherto in use. The financial statements correspond to the classification provisions contained in Ind AS 1, "Presentation of Financial Statements". For clarity, various items are aggregated in the statements of profit and loss and balance sheet. These items are disaggregated separately in the notes to the financial statements, where applicable. Previous year figures have been regrouped/re-arranged, wherever necessary.
The financial statements were authorized for issue by the Company''s Board of Directors on 30th May 2023. Details of the accounting policies are included in Note 1.
The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS) notified under the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 (as amended from time to time).
These financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention and on an accrual and going concern basis except for the material items:
¦ The defined benefit asset/(liability) is recognized as the present value of defined benefit obligation less fair value of plan assets.
¦ Employee defined benefit assets/(liability) are recognized as the net total of the fair value of plan assets, plus actuarial losses, less actuarial gains and the present value of the defined benefit obligation.
The financial statements are presented in Indian rupees, which is the functional currency of the Company. All amounts are in Lakhs of Rupees except share data, unless otherwise stated.
All the assets and liabilities have been classified as current or non-current as per the Company''s normal operating cycle and other criteria set out under Ind As and in the Schedule III to the Companies Act, 2013.
An asset is classified as current when it satisfies any of the following criteria:
a) it is expected to be realized in, or is intended for sale or consumption in, the Company''s normal operating cycle;
b) it is held primarily for the purpose of being traded;
c) it is expected to be realized within twelve months after the reporting date; or
d) it is cash or cash equivalent unless it is restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months after the reporting date.
All other assets are classified as non-current.
A liability is classified as current when it satisfies any of the following criteria:
a) it is expected to be settled in the Company''s normal operating cycle;
b) it is held primarily for the purpose of being traded;
c) it is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting date; or
d) the Company does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting date. 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.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as non-current assets and liabilities.
The operating cycle is the time between the acquisition of assets for processing and their realisation in cash and cash equivalents. The Company has identified twelve months as its operating cycle.
In the application of the Company''s accounting policies, which are described in Note 1, the management of the Company are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.
The following are the areas of estimation uncertainty and critical judgements that the management has made in the process of applying the Company''s accounting policies and that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements:
The Company applies judgement to determine whether each service promised to a customer is capable of being distinct, and are distinct in the context of the contract, if not, the promised services are combined and accounted as a single performance obligation. The Company allocates the arrangement consideration to separately identifiable performance obligation deliverables based on their relative stand-alone selling price.
In cases where the Company is unable to determine the stand-alone selling price, the Company uses expected cost-plus margin approach in estimating the standalone selling price. The Company uses the percentage of
completion method using the input (cost expended) method to measure progress towards completion in respect of fixed price contracts. Percentage of completion method accounting relies on estimates of total expected contract revenue and costs.
This method is followed when reasonably dependable estimates of the revenues and costs applicable to various elements of the contract can be made. Key factors that are reviewed in estimating the future costs to complete include estimates of future labour costs and productivity efficiencies. Because the financial reporting of these contracts depends on estimates that are assessed continually during the term of these contracts, revenue recognised, profit and timing of revenue for remaining performance obligations are subject to revisions as the contract progresses to completion. Provisions for estimated losses, if any, on uncompleted contracts are recorded in the period in which such losses become probable based on the expected contract estimates at the reporting date.
Investments in subsidiaries and intangible assets (if any) are tested for impairment at least annually and when events occur or changes in circumstances indicate that the recoverable amount of the asset or cash generating units to which these pertain is less than its carrying value. The recoverable amount of cash generating units is higher of value-in-use and fair value less cost to dispose. The calculation of value in use of a cash generating unit involves use of significant estimates and assumptions which includes turnover and earnings multiples, growth rates and net margins used to calculate projected future cash flows, risk-adjusted discount rate, future economic and market conditions.
Tax jurisdiction for the Company is India. Significant judgements are involved in determining the provision for income taxes including judgement on whether tax positions are probable of being sustained in Income tax assessments. Such assessments involve complex issues which would only be resolved over extended time periods.
Deferred tax is recorded on temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts, at the rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable profits during the periods in which those temporary differences and tax loss carryforwards become deductible. The Company considers the expected reversal of deferred tax liabilities and projected future taxable income in making this assessment.
The cost of the defined benefit plans, compensated absences and the present value of the defined benefit obligations are based on actuarial valuation using the projected unit credit method as recommended by Ind AS 19. An actuarial valuation involves making various assumptions that may differ from actual developments in the future. These include the determination of the discount rate, future salary increases and mortality rates. Due to the complexities involved in the valuation and its long-term nature, a defined benefit obligation is highly sensitive to changes in these assumptions. All assumptions are reviewed at each reporting date.
The Company depreciates property, plant and equipment on a straight-line basis over estimated useful lives of the assets. Depreciation is derived based on an estimate of an asset''s expected useful life and the expected residual value at the end of its life. The lives are based on historical experience with similar assets as well as
anticipation of future events, which may impact their life, such as changes in technology. The estimated useful life is reviewed by management of the Company periodically, including at end of each financial year.
The Company measures financial instruments at fair value at each standalone balance sheet date.
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value measurement is based on the presumption that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability takes place either:
⢠In the principal market for the asset or liability, or
⢠In the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the asset or liability The principal or the most advantageous market must be accessible by the Company.
The fair value of an asset or a liability is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, assuming that market participants act in their economic best interest.
The Company uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available to measure fair value, maximising the use of relevant observable inputs and minimising the use of unobservable inputs.
All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the standalone financial statements are categorised within the fair value hierarchy, described as follows, based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole:
⢠Level 1- Quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
⢠Level 2- Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is directly or indirectly observable
⢠Level 3- Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is unobservable
For assets and liabilities that are recognised in the standalone financial statements on a recurring basis, the Company determines whether transfers have occurred between levels in the hierarchy by reassessing categorization (based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole) at the end of each reporting period.
The Company''s management determines the policies and procedures for both recurring fair value measurement, such as derivative instruments and unquoted financial assets measured at fair value, and for non-recurring measurement, such as assets held for distribution in discontinued operations.
External valuers are involved for valuation of significant assets, such as unquoted financial assets, and significant liabilities, such as contingent consideration. Involvement of external valuers is decided upon annually by the management. Selection criteria include market knowledge, reputation, independence and whether professional standards are maintained.
At each reporting date, the management analyses the movements in the values of assets and liabilities which are required to be re-measured or re-assessed as per the Company''s accounting policies. For this analysis, the management verifies the major inputs applied in the latest valuation by agreeing the information in the valuation computation to contracts and other relevant documents.
For the purpose of fair value disclosures, the Company has determined classes of assets and liabilities on the basis of the nature, characteristics and risks of the asset or liability and the level of the fair value hierarchy as explained above
The Company derives revenue primarily from software development, maintenance of software and related services and business process services.
Revenues are shown net of goods and services tax. Revenue is recognised upon transfer of control of promised services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company reliably expects to receive in exchange for those products or services. To recognise revenues, the Company applies the following five step approach:
1) identify the contract with a customer,
2) identify the performance obligations in the contract,
3) determine the transaction price,
4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and
5) recognise revenues when a performance obligation is satisfied
At contract inception, the Company assesses its promise to transfer its services to a customer to identify separate performance obligations. The Company applies judgement to determine whether each product or service promised to a customer is capable of being distinct, and are distinct in the context of the contract, if not, the promised products or services are combined and accounted as a single performance obligation.
The Company allocates the arrangement consideration to separately identifiable performance obligations based on their relative stand-alone selling price or residual method. Standalone selling prices are determined based on sale prices for the components when it is regularly sold separately. In cases where the Company is unable to determine the stand-alone selling price, the Company uses third-party prices for similar deliverables or the Company uses expected cost-plus margin approach in estimating the stand-alone selling price.
Revenue on time-and-material contracts are recognized as the related services are performed and revenue from the end of the last invoicing to the reporting date is recognized as unbilled revenue. Revenue from fixed-price, fixed-timeframe contracts, where the performance obligations are satisfied over time and where there is no uncertainty as to measurement or collectability of consideration, is recognized as per the percentage-of-completion method.
When there is uncertainty as to measurement or ultimate collectability, revenue recognition is postponed until such uncertainty is resolved. Efforts or costs expended have been used to measure progress towards completion as there is a direct relationship between input and productivity. In case of volume-based contracts, revenues and costs are recognized as related services are rendered.
Other income is comprised primarily of interest income, rental income and exchange gain / loss. For all debt instruments measured either at amortised cost or at fair value through other comprehensive income, interest income is recorded using the effective interest rate (EIR). EIR is the rate that exactly discounts the estimated future cash receipts over the expected life of the financial instrument or a shorter period, where appropriate, to the gross carrying amount of the financial asset. When calculating the effective interest rate, the Company estimates the expected cash flows by considering all the contractual terms of the financial instrument (for
example, prepayment, extension, call and similar options) but does not consider the expected credit losses. Interest income is included under other income in the standalone statement of profit and loss.
Dividend income is recognized when the Company''s right to receive dividend is established.
The functional currency of the Company is the Indian rupee. These financial statements are presented in Lakhs of rupees.
Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are recorded at the exchange rates prevailing at the time of the transaction.
Foreign-currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities are translated into the relevant functional currency at exchange rates in effect at the Balance Sheet date. The gains or losses resulting from such translations are included in net profit in the Statement of Profit and Loss. Non-monetary assets and non-monetary liabilities denominated in a foreign currency and measured at fair value are translated at the exchange rate prevalent at the date when the fair value was determined. Non-monetary assets and non-monetary liabilities denominated in a foreign currency and measured at historical cost are translated at the exchange rate prevalent at the date of the transaction.
Any gains or losses arising due to differences in exchange rates at the time of translation or settlement are accounted for in the standalone statement of profit and loss either under the head foreign exchange fluctuation or interest cost except those relating to long-term foreign currency monetary items.
Current income tax for the current and prior periods are measured at the amount expected to be paid to the income tax authorities based on the taxable income for the period. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the current tax amount are those that are enacted or substantively enacted as at the reporting date and applicable for the period.
Current income tax is recognised in the standalone statement of profit and loss except to the extent that it relates to items recognised directly in equity, in which case it is recognised in equity. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in the tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulations are subject to interpretation and establishes provisions where appropriate.
Deferred tax is provided using the Balance Sheet approach on temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes at the reporting date.
Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences, except when the deferred tax liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss.
Deferred tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, the carry forward of unused tax credits and any unused tax losses. Deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it 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, except when the deferred tax asset relating to the deductible temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the year when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred tax asset to be utilised. Unrecognised deferred tax assets are re-assessed at each reporting date and are recognised to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profits will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered.
Deferred tax is recognised in the standalone statement of profit and loss, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. In this case, the deferred tax is also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, respectively.
Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset if a legally enforceable right exists to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and the deferred taxes relate to the same taxable entity and the same taxation authority.
MAT credit entitlement represents amounts paid in a year under Section 115JB of the Income Tax Act 1961 (''IT Act''), in excess of the tax payable, computed on the basis of normal provisions of the IT Act. Such excess amount can be carried forward for set off against future tax payments for ten succeeding years in accordance with the relevant provisions of the IT Act. Since such credit represents a resource controlled by the Company as a result of past events and there is evidence as at the reporting date that the Company will pay normal income tax during the specified period, when such credit would be adjusted, the same has been disclosed as ''MAT Credit entitlement'', under ''Other non-current financial assets'' in balance sheet with a corresponding credit to the profit and loss account, as a separate line item. Such assets are reviewed as at each balance sheet date and written down to reflect the amount that will not be available as a credit to be set off in future, based on the applicable taxation law then in force.
Basic earnings per equity share is computed by dividing the net profit attributable to the equity holders of the Company and includes post tax effect of any exceptional item by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period excluding the shares owned by the Trust, outstanding during the period.
Diluted earnings per equity share is computed by dividing the net profit attributable to the equity holders of the Company by the weighted average number of equity shares considered for deriving basic earnings per equity share and also the weighted average number of equity shares that could have been issued upon conversion of all dilutive potential equity shares. The dilutive potential equity shares are adjusted for the proceeds receivable had the equity shares been actually issued at fair value (i.e. the average market value of the outstanding equity shares). Dilutive potential equity shares are deemed converted as at the beginning of the period, unless issued at a later date. Dilutive potential equity shares are determined independently for each period presented.
The number of equity shares and potentially dilutive equity shares are adjusted retrospectively for all periods presented for any share splits and bonus shares issues including for changes effected prior to the approval of the financial statements by the Board of Directors.
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses if any. The Company identifies and determines separate useful lives for each major component of the property, plant and equipment, if they have a useful life that is materially different from that of the asset as a whole.
Cost of an item of PPE comprises of its purchase price including import duties and non-refundable purchase taxes after deducting trade discounts and rebates, any directly attributable cost of bringing the item to its working condition for its intended use and present value of estimated costs of dismantling and removing the item and restoring the site on which it is located. General and specific borrowing costs directly attributable to the construction of a qualifying asset are capitalised as part of the cost.
Expenses on existing property, plant and equipment, including day-to-day repairs, maintenance expenditure and cost of replacing parts, are charged to the statement of profit and loss for the year during which such expenses are incurred. Gains or losses arising from derecognition of assets are measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and are recognized in the statement of profit and loss when the asset is derecognized.
Advances paid towards the acquisition of property, plant and equipment outstanding at each Balance Sheet date is classified as capital advances under other non-current assets and the cost of assets not ready to use before such date are disclosed under ''Capital work-in-progress''. Subsequent expenditures relating to property, plant and equipment are capitalized only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with these will flow to the Company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably.
Depreciation is provided on the basis of straight-line method at the useful life and in the manner prescribed in Schedule II of the Companies Act, 2013. Management believes that these estimated useful lives are realistic and reflect fair approximation of the period over which the assets are likely to be used. Depreciation is charged on a pro-rata basis for assets purchased / sold during the year.
The management''s estimates of the useful lives of various assets for computing depreciation are as follows:
Particulars |
Useful life |
Buildings |
60 |
Plant and Machinery |
06 |
Furniture & Fixtures |
10 |
Office Equipment - Others |
05 |
Vehicles |
8 |
The useful lives as given above best represent the period over which the management expects to use these assets, based on technical assessment. The estimated useful lives for these assets are therefore different from the useful lives prescribed under Part C of Schedule II of the Companies Act 2013.
The residual values, useful lives and methods of depreciation of property, plant and equipment are reviewed at each financial year-end and adjusted prospectively, if appropriate.
The Company assesses at each reporting date, whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. If any indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the company estimates the asset''s recoverable amount. An asset''s recoverable amount is the higher of an asset''s or cash-generating unit''s (CGU) fair value less costs of disposal and its value in use. Recoverable amount is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets or groups of assets.
When the carrying amount of an asset or CGU exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount.
Impairment losses of continuing operations, including impairment on inventories, are recognised in the standalone statement of profit and loss.
For assets excluding goodwill, an assessment is made at each reporting date to determine whether there is an indication that previously recognised impairment losses no longer exist or have decreased. If such indication exists, the Company estimates the assets or CGU''s recoverable amount. A previously recognised impairment loss is reversed only if there has been a change in the assumptions used to determine the asset''s recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognised. The reversal is limited so that the carrying amount of the asset does not exceed its recoverable amount, nor exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation, had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years.
A financial instrument is any contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one entity and a financial liability or equity instrument of another entity.
All financial assets are recognised initially at fair value, plus in the case of financial assets not recorded at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL), transaction costs that are attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset. However, trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component are measured at transaction price.
For purposes of subsequent measurement, financial assets are classified in four categories:
⢠Debt instruments at amortised cost
⢠Debt instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI)
⢠Debt instruments, derivatives and equity instruments at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL)
⢠Equity instruments measured at FVTOCI or FVTPL
A ''debt instrument'' is measured at the amortised cost if both the following conditions are met:
a) The asset is held within a business model, whose objective is to hold assets for collecting contractual cash flows, and
b) Contractual terms of the asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest (SPPI) on the principal amount outstanding.
After initial measurement, such financial assets are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate (EIR) method. Amortised cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of the EIR. The EIR amortisation is included in finance income in the standalone statement of profit and loss. The losses arising from impairment are recognised in the standalone statement of profit and loss.
A ''debt instrument'' is classified as at the FVTOCI if both of the following criteria are met:
a) The objective of the business model is achieved both by collecting contractual cash flows and selling the financial assets, and
b) The asset''s contractual cash flows represent SPPI.
Debt instruments included within the FVTOCI category are measured initially as well as at each reporting date at fair value. Fair value movements are recognized in the other comprehensive income (OCI). On derecognition of the asset, cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in OCI is reclassified from the equity to standalone statement of profit and loss. Interest earned whilst holding FVTOCI debt instrument is reported as interest income using the EIR method.
FVTPL is a residual category for debt instruments. Any debt instrument, which does not meet the criteria for categorization as at amortized cost or as FVTOCI, is classified as at FVTPL. Debt instruments included within the FVTPL category are measured at fair value with all changes recognized in the standalone statement of profit and loss.
All equity investments in scope of Ind AS 109 are measured at fair value. Equity instruments which are held for trading are classified as at FVTPL. For all other equity instruments, the Company decides to classify the same either as at FVTOCI or FVTPL. The Company makes such election on an instrument-by-instrument basis. The classification is made on initial recognition and is irrevocable.
If the Company decides to classify an equity instrument as at FVTOCI, then all fair value changes on the instrument, excluding dividends, are recognized in the OCI. There is no recycling of the amounts from OCI to standalone statement of profit and loss, even on sale of investment. However, the Company transfers the cumulative gain or loss within equity.
A financial asset is primarily derecognized when:
⢠The rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired, or
⢠The Company has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from the asset or has assumed an obligation to pay the received cash flows in full without material delay to a third party under a ''pass-through'' arrangement; and either (a) the company has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, or (b) the company has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, but has transferred control of the asset.
When the Company has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from an asset or has entered into a passthrough arrangement, it evaluates if and to what extent it has retained the risks and rewards of ownership. When it has neither transferred nor retained substantially all of the risks and rewards of the asset, nor transferred control of the asset, the company continues to recognise the transferred asset to the extent of the company''s continuing
involvement. In that case, the company also recognises an associated liability. The transferred asset and the associated liability are measured on a basis that reflects the rights and obligations that the Company has retained.
Continuing involvement that takes the form of a guarantee over the transferred asset is measured at the lower of the original carrying amount of the asset and the maximum amount of consideration that the company could be required to repay.
In accordance with Ind AS 109, the Company applies expected credit loss (ECL) model for measurement and recognition of impairment loss on the following financial assets and credit risk exposure:
⢠Financial assets that are debt instruments, and are measured at amortised cost e.g., loans, debt securities, deposits, trade receivables and bank balances
⢠Financial guarantee contracts which are not measured as at FVTPL
The Company follows ''simplified approach'' for recognition of impairment loss allowance on trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component.
The application of simplified approach does not require the Company to track changes in credit risk. Rather, it recognises impairment loss allowance based on lifetime ECLs at each reporting date, right from its initial recognition.
For recognition of impairment loss on other financial assets and risk exposure, the company determines that whether there has been a significant increase in the credit risk since initial recognition. If credit risk has not increased significantly, 12-month ECL is used to provide for impairment loss. However, if credit risk has increased significantly, lifetime ECL is used. If, in a subsequent period, credit quality of the instrument improves such that there is no longer
a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition, then the entity reverts to recognising impairment loss allowance based on 12-month ECL.
Lifetime ECL are the expected credit losses resulting from all possible default events over the expected life of a financial instrument. The 12-month ECL is a portion of the lifetime ECL which results from default events that are possible within 12 months after the reporting date.
ECL is the difference between all contractual cash flows that are due to the Company in accordance with the contract and all the cash flows that the entity expects to receive (i.e., all cash shortfalls), discounted at the original EIR. When estimating the cash flows, an entity is required to consider:
⢠All contractual terms of the financial instrument (including prepayment, extension, call and similar options) over the expected life of the financial instrument. However, in rare cases when the expected life of the financial instrument cannot be estimated reliably, then the entity is required to use the remaining contractual term of the financial instrument.
⢠Cash flows from the sale of collateral held or other credit enhancements that are integral to the contractual terms ECL impairment loss allowance (or reversal) recognized during the period is recognized as income/ expense in the standalone statement of profit and loss. This amount is reflected under the head ''other expenses'' in the standalone statement of profit and loss. The standalone balance sheet presentation for various financial instruments is described below:
⢠Financial assets measured at amortised cost: ECL is presented as an allowance, i.e., as an integral part of the measurement of those assets in the standalone balance sheet. The allowance reduces the net carrying amount.
Until the asset meets write-off criteria, the company does not reduce impairment allowance from the gross carrying amount.
⢠Financial guarantee contracts: ECL is presented as a provision in the standalone balance sheet, i.e. as a liability.
Financial liabilities are classified, at initial recognition, as financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, loans and borrowings or payables, as appropriate. All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value and, in the case of loans and borrowings and payables, net of directly attributable transaction costs. The Company''s financial liabilities include trade and other payables, loans and borrowings including financial guarantee contracts and derivative financial instruments.
The measurement of financial liabilities depends on their classification, as described below:
Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss
Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss include financial liabilities held for trading and financial liabilities designated upon initial recognition as at fair value through profit or loss. Financial liabilities are classified as held for trading if they are incurred for the purpose of repurchasing in the near term. This category also includes derivative financial instruments entered into by the company that are not designated as hedging instruments in hedge relationships as defined by Ind AS 109. Separated embedded derivatives are also classified as held for trading unless they are designated as effective hedging instruments.
Gains or losses on liabilities held for trading are recognised in the standalone statement of profit and loss.
Financial liabilities designated upon initial recognition at fair value through profit or loss are designated as such at the initial date of recognition, and only if the criteria in Ind AS 109 are satisfied. For liabilities designated as FVTPL, fair value gains/ losses attributable to changes in own credit risk are recognized in OCI. These gains/ losses are not subsequently transferred to the standalone statement of profit and loss. However, the company may transfer the cumulative gain or loss within equity. All other changes in fair value of such liability are recognised in the standalone statement of profit and loss. The company has not designated any financial liability as at fair value through profit and loss.
After initial recognition, interest-bearing loans and borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the EIR method. Gains and losses are recognised in the standalone statement of profit and loss when the liabilities are derecognized as well as through the EIR amortization process.
Amortised cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of the EIR. The EIR amortisation is included as finance costs in the standalone statement of profit and loss. This category generally applies to borrowings from banks.
Financial guarantee contracts issued by the Company are those contracts that require a payment to be made to reimburse the holder for a loss it incurs because the specified debtor fails to make a payment when due in accordance with the terms of a debt instrument. Financial guarantee contracts are recognised initially as a liability at fair value, adjusted for transaction costs that are directly attributable to the issuance of the guarantee.
Subsequently, the liability is measured at the higher of the amount of loss allowance determined as per impairment requirements of Ind AS 109 and the amount recognised less cumulative amortisation.
These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Company prior to the end of financial year which are unpaid. The amounts are unsecured and are usually paid as per agreed terms. Trade and other payables are presented as current liabilities unless payment is not due within 12 months after the reporting period. They are recognised initially at their fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires. When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as the de-recognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability. The difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognised in the standalone statement of profit and loss.
Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the standalone balance sheet if there is a currently enforceable legal right to offset the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis, to realise the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.
Provisions are recognised when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.
When the Company expects some or all of a provision to be reimbursed, reimbursement is recognised as a separate asset, but only when the reimbursement is virtually certain. The expense relating to a provision is presented in the standalone statement of profit and loss net of any reimbursement.
If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre-tax rate that reflects, when appropriate, the risks specific to the liability. When discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised as a finance cost.
Contingent liabilities are identified and disclosed with respect to following:
⢠a possible obligation that arises from past events and whose existence will be confirmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of the entity; or
⢠a present obligation that arises from past events but is not recognised because: it is not probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation; or the amount of the obligation cannot be measured with sufficient reliability.
⢠Contingent assets are neither recognized nor disclosed, unless inflow of economic benefits is probable. However, when realization of income is virtually certain, related asset is recognized.
The standalone cash flow statement is prepared in accordance with the Indirect method. Standalone cash flow statement presents the cash flows by operating, financing and investing activities of the Company. Operating cash flows are arrived by adjusting profit or loss before tax for the effects of transactions of a non-cash nature,
any deferrals or accruals of past or future operating cash receipts or payments, and items of income or expense associated with investing or financing cash flows.
Employees of the Company receive benefits under the provident fund, a defined benefit plan. The employee and employer each make monthly contributions to the plan. A portion of the contribution is made to the provident fund trust managed by the Company or Government administered provident fund. The liability is actuarially determined (using the projected unit credit method) at the end of the year. The contributions are charged to the statement of profit and loss in the year when employee renders the related service. There are no other obligations other than the contribution payable to the respective authorities.
The Company provides for gratuity, a defined benefit retirement plan ("the Gratuity Plan") covering eligible employees. The Gratuity Plan provides a lump-sum payment to vested employees at retirement, death, incapacitation or termination of employment, of an amount based on the respective employee''s salary and the tenure of employment with the Company. Liabilities with regard to the Gratuity Plan are determined by actuarial valuation, performed by an independent actuary, at each Balance Sheet date using the projected unit credit method.
The Company has a policy on compensated absences which are both accumulating and non-accumulating in nature. The expected cost of accumulating compensated absences is determined by Estimation Basis. The actuarial valuation is done at the end of the year. Actuarial gains/losses are immediately taken to statement of profit and loss and are not deferred.
The Company has elected to recognize its investments in equity instruments in subsidiary at cost in accordance with the option available in Ind AS 27, ''Separate Financial Statements''.
The Company''s lease asset classes primarily consist of leases for land and buildings. The Company assesses whether a contract contains a lease, at inception of a contract. 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: (i) the contract involves the use of an identified asset (ii) the Company has substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the asset through the period of the lease and (iii) the Company has the right to direct the use of the asset.
At the date of commencement of the lease, the Company recognizes a right-of-use (ROU) asset and a corresponding lease liability for all lease arrangements in which it is a lessee, except for leases with a term of 12 months or less (short-term leases) and low value leases. For these short-term and low-value leases, the Company recognizes the lease payments as an operating expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.
Certain lease arrangements include the options to extend or terminate the lease before the end of the lease term. ROU assets and lease liabilities includes these options when it is reasonably certain that they will be exercised. The ROU assets are initially recognized at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or prior to the commencement date of the lease plus any initial direct costs less any lease incentives. They are subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and
impairment losses. ROU assets are depreciated from the commencement date on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease term and useful life of the underlying asset.
The Company measures the lease liability at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at the commencement date of the lease. The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease, if that rate can be readily determined. If that rate cannot be readily determined, the Company uses incremental borrowing 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 re-measurement of lease liability due to modification as an adjustment to the Right-of-use asset and Statement of Profit and Loss depending upon the nature of modification. 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 re-measurement in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

1.1 Basis of Preparation of Financial Statements:
The financial statements are prepared in accordance with Indian
Generally accepted principles (GAAP) under the historical cost
convention on the accrual basis. GAAP comprises mandatory accounting
standards issued by Institute of chartered Accountants of India (ICAI),
the provisions of the Companies act 1956. Management evaluates all
recently issued or revised accounting standards on an ongoing basis.
1.2 Use of Estimates:
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP
requires Management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the
reported balances of assets and liabilities and disclosures relating to
contingent assets and liabilities as at the date of the financial
statements and reported amounts of income and expenses during the
period. Examples of such estimates include provision for doubtful
debts, future obligations under employee retirement benefit plans,
income taxes, and the useful lives of fixed assets and intangible
assets.
1.3 Revenue Recognition:
1.Software consultancy fee comprises of:
a) Services valued and invoiced on the basis of work completed and / or
delivered
b) Annual maintenance charges invoiced as appropriated for the
accounting period.
2. Professional services are taken into account on the basis of
services rendered during the accounting period at the rate agreed upon
3. Student training fee receipts are accounted on accrual basis.
1.4. Tangible fixed assets
Fixed assets are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and
impairment losses, if any. The cost of fixed assets includes interest
on borrowings attributable to acquisition of qualifying fixed assets up
to the date the asset is ready for its intended use and other
incidental expenses incurred up to that date. Exchange differences
arising on restatement / settlement of long-term foreign currency
borrowings relating to acquisition of depreciable fixed assets are
adjusted to the cost of the respective assets and depreciated over the
remaining useful life of such assets. Subsequent expenditure relating
to fixed assets is capitalized only if such expenditure results in an
increase in the future benefits from such asset beyond its previously
assessed standard of performance.
Fixed assets acquired and put to use for project purpose are
capitalized and depreciation thereon is included in the project cost
till commissioning of the project.
Capital work-in progress:
Projects under which assets are not ready for their intended use and
other capital work-in-progress are carried at cost, comprising direct
cost, related incidental expenses and attributable interest
1.5 Intangible assets
Intangible assets are carried at cost less accumulated amortization and
impairment losses, if any. The cost of an intangible asset comprises
its purchase price, including any import duties and other taxed (Other
than those subsequently recoverable from the taxing authorities), and
any directly attributable expenditure on making the asset ready for its
intended use and net of any trade discounts and rebates. Subsequent
expenditure on an intangible asset after its purchase / completion is
recognized as an expense when incurred unless it is probable that such
expenditure will enable the asset to generate future economic benefits
in excess of its originally assessed standards of performance and such
expenditure can be measured and attributed to the asset reliably in
which case such expenditure is added to the cost of the asset.
1.6 Depreciation
a) Depreciation on fixed assets located in India is provided as per the
rates specified in the Schedule XIV of the Companies Act, 1956 under
Straight Line Method (SLM), The software Packages are depreciated as in

integral foreign operations are accounted at the exchange rates
prevailing on the date of the transaction or at rates that closely
approximate the rate at the date of the transaction.
Measurement of foreign currency monetary items at the Balance sheet
date
Foreign currency monetary items (other than derivative contracts) of
the Company and its net investment in non-integral foreign operations
outstanding at the Balance Sheet date are restated at the year-end
rates.
In the case of integral operations, assets and liabilities (other than
non-monetary items), are translated at the exchange rate prevailing on
the Balance Sheet date. Non-monetary items are carried at historical
cost. Revenue and expenses are translated at the average exchange rates
prevailing during the year. Exchange differences arising out of these
translations are charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Treatment of exchange differences
Exchange difference arising on settlement / restatement of short-term
foreign currency monetary assets and liabilities of the Company and its
integral foreign operations are recognized as income or expense in the
Statement of Profit and Loss. The exchange differences on restatement /

considered as not investment in such operations are accumulated in a
"Foreign currency translation reserve" until disposal / recovery of the
net investment.
1.8 Segment reporting

nature of risks and returns and the internal organization and
management structure. The operating segments are the segments for which
separate financial information is available and for which operating
profit / loss amounts are evaluated regularly by the executive
Management in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing
performance.
The accounting policies adopted for segment reporting are in line with
the accounting policies of the Company. Segment revenue, segment
expenses, segment assets and segment liabilities have been identified
to segments on the basis of their relationship to the operating
activities of the segment
Inter-segment revenue is accounted on the basis of transactions which
are primarily determined based on market / fair value factors.
Revenue, expenses, assets and liabilities which relate to the Company
as a whole and are not allocable to segments on reasonable basis have
been included under "unallocated revenue / expenses / assets /
liabilities".
1.9 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 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.
1.10 Taxes on income
Current tax is the amount of tax payable on the taxable income for the
year as determined in the accordance with the provisions of the Income
Tax Act, 1961.

gives future economic benefits in the form of adjustment to future
income tax liability, is considered as an asset if there is convincing
evidence that the Company will pay normal income tax, accordingly, MAT
is recognized as an asset in the Balance Sheet when it is probable that
future economic benefit associated with will flow to the Company.
Deferred tax is recognized on timing differences, being the differences
between the taxable income and the accounting income that orginate in
one period and is capable of reversal in one or more subsequent
periods. Deferred tax is measured using the tax rates and the tax laws
enacted or substantially enacted as at the reporting date. Deferred tax
liabilities are recognized for all timing difference. Deferred tax
assets in respect of unabsorbed depreciation and carry forward of
losses are recognized only if there is virtual certainty that there
will be sufficient future taxable income available against which these
can be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if such
items relate to taxes on income levied by the same governing tax laws
and the Company has a legally enforceable right for such set off.
Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each Balance Sheet date for their
reliability.
During the past 10 Years the company has been incurring losses and does
not visualize any significant improvement in the performance of the
company in the near future. In such back ground the company is
conservative in determining any Deferred Tax assets.
1.11 Impairment of assets
The carrying values of assets/ cash generating units at each Balance
Sheet date are reviewed for impairment If any indication of impairment
exists, the recoverable amount of such assets is estimated and
impairment is recognized, if the carrying amount of these assets
exceeds their recoverable amount ITie 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 flows to their present value
based on an appropriated discount factor. When there is indication that
an impairment loss recognized for an 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,
except in case of revalued assets.
1.12 Provisions and contingencies
A provision is recognized when the Company has a present obligation as
a result of past events and it is probable that an outflow of resources
will be required to settle the obligation in respect of which a
reliable estimate can be made. Provisions (excluding retirement
benefits) are not discounted to their present value and are determined
based on the best estimate required to settle the obligation at the
Balance Sheet date. These are reviewed at each Balance Sheet date and
adjusted to reflect the current best estimates. Contingent liabilities
are disclosed in the Notes.
1.13 Investments
Investments ate classified into current investments and long term
Investments. Current investments are carried at the lower of cost or
market value. Any reduction in carrying amount and any reversals of
such reduction are charged or credited to the profit and loss account

recognize any decline, other than temporary, in the value of such
investments. Current Investments are reflected under Current Assets and
Long Term investments are reflected under Non-Current Assets.

Raw material, work-in-progress, components, stores and spares and
packing materials are valued at cost. Finished goods are valued at cost
or net realizable value whichever is less.
1.15 Cash and cash equivalents (for purposes of Cash Flow Statement)
Cash comprises cash on hand and demand deposits with banks. Cash
equivalents are short-term (with an original maturity of three months
or less from the date of acquisition), highly liquid investments that
are readily convertible into know amounts of cash and which are subject
to insignificant risk of changes in value
1.16 Cash flow statement
Cash flows are reported using the indirect method, whereby profit /
(loçs) before extraordinary items and tax is adjusted for the effects
of transactions of non-cash nature and any deferrals or accruals of
past or future cash receipts or payments. The cash flows from
operating, investing and financing activities of the Company are
segregated based on the available information.
1.17 R& D Expenditure.
