t) Provisions and contingent liabilities
Provisions are recognised when the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation as aresult of past events, it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle theobligation and the amount can be reliably estimated provisions are not recognised for future
operating losses. Provisions are measured at the present value of management s best estimate ofthe expenditure required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period Theincrease in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised as Finance cost ContingentLiabilities are disclosed in respect of possible obligations that arise from past events but theirexistence will be confirmed by the occurrence or non occurrence of one or more uncertain futureevents not wholly within the control of the Company or where any present obligation cannot bemeasured in terms of future outflow of resources or where a reliable estimate of the obligationcannot be made A contingent liability also arises in extremely rare cases where there is a liabilitythat cannot be recognised because it cannot be measured reliably. The Company does notrecognize a contingent liability but discloses its existence in the financial statements
u) Critical estimates and judgments
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with IND AS requires the management tomake estimates, judgements and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets andliabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities on the date of the financial statementsand the reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the year reported. Actual results coulddiffer from those estimates. Uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result inoutcomes that require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets or liabilities affectedin future periods.
This note provides an overview of the areas that involved a higher degree of judgement orcomplexity, and of items which are more likely to be materially adjusted due to estimates andassumptions turning out to be different than those originally assessed Detailed information abouteach of these estimates and judgements is included in relevant notes together with informationabout the basis of calculation for each affected line item in the financial statements.
The areas involving critical estimates or judgments are:
• Estimation of current tax expense and payable
• Estimated Fair value of unlisted securities
• Estimated useful lives of tangible assets and the assessment as to which components of thecost may be capitalized;
• Recognition of deferred tax assets - availability of future taxable profits against which deferredtax assets can be used
• Probable outcome of matters included under Contingent Liabilities
• Leases - estimating the effective interest rate
The Company cannot readily determine the interest rate implicit in the lease, therefore, it usesits incremental borrowing rate (IBR) to measure lease liabilities The IBR is the rate of interestthat the Company would have to pay to borrow over a similar term, and with a similar security,the funds necessary to obtain an asset of a similar value to the right of use asset in a similareconomic environment.
Estimates and judgments are continually evaluated. They are based on historical experience andother factors, including expectations of future events that may have a financial impact on theCompany and that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
Provision for expected credit losses (ECL) of trade receivables The Company uses a provisionmatrix to calculate ECLs for trade receivables. The provision rates are based on days past due forgroupings of various customer segments that have similar loss patterns (i.e., by geography, producttype, customer type and rating, and coverage by letters of credit and other forms of credit insurance).The provision matrix is initially based on the Company's historical observed default rates. The Companywill calibrate the matrix to adjust the historical credit loss experience with forward-looking information. Atevery reporting date, the historical observed default rates are updated and changes in the forward¬looking estimates are analysed.
