(i) Provisions
Provisions for legal claims and make good obligations are recognised when the Company has a present legal or constructiveobligation as a result of past events, it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation andthe amount can be reliably estimated. Provisions are not recognised for future operating losses.
Where there are a number of similar obligations, the likelihood that an outflow will be required in settlement is determinedby considering the class of obligations as a whole. A provision is recognised even if the likelihood of an outflow with respectto any one item included in the same class of obligations may be small.
Long-term provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre-tax rate that reflects currentmarket assessments of the time value of money. Short term provisions are carried at their redemption value and are notoffset against receivables from reimbursements.
Provisions are measured at the present value of management's best estimate of the expenditure required to settle thepresent obligation at the end of the reporting period. The discount rate used to determine the present value is a pre-tax ratethat reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability. The increase inthe provision due to the passage of time is recognised as interest expense.
(ii) Contingent Liabilities
Contingent liabilities are disclosed when there is a possible obligation arising from past events, the existence of which will beconfirmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control ofthe Company or a present obligation that arises from past events where it is either not probable that an outflow of resourceswill be required to settle or a reliable estimate of the amount cannot be made.

While preparing financial statements in conformity with Ind AS, the management has made certain estimates andassumptions that require subjective and complex judgments. These judgments affect the application of accounting policiesand the reported amount of assets, liabilities, income and expenses, disclosure of contingent liabilities at the statement offinancial position date and the reported amount of income and expenses for the reporting period. Financial reporting resultsrely on the management estimate of the effect of certain matters that are inherently uncertain. Future events rarely developexactly as forecasted and the best estimates require adjustments, as actual results may differ from these estimates underdifferent assumptions or conditions. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions toaccounting estimates are recognized prospectively.
Judgment, estimates and assumptions are required in particular for:
The obligation arising from defined benefit plan is determined on the basis of actuarial assumptions. Key actuarialassumptions include discount rate, trends in salary escalation, actuarial rates and life expectancy. The discount rateis determined by reference to market yields at the end of the reporting period on government bonds. The period tomaturity of the underlying bonds correspond to the probable maturity of the post-employment benefit obligations. Dueto complexities involved in the valuation and its long term nature, defined benefit obligation is highly sensitive to changesin these assumptions. All assumptions are reviewed at each reporting period.
b) Recognition of deferred tax liabilities
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences of temporary differences betweenthe carrying values of assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases, and unutilized business loss and depreciationcarry-forwards and tax credits. Deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probable that future taxableincome will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, unused tax losses, depreciation carry¬forwards and unused tax credits could be utilized.
c) Discounting of financial assets / liabilities
All financial assets / liabilities are required to be measured at fair value on initial recognition. In case of financial assets /liabilities which are required to be subsequently measured at amortized cost, interest is accrued using the effectiveinterest method.
d) Provisions
Significant estimates are involved in the determination of provisions. The Company records a provision for onerous salescontracts when current estimates of total contract costs exceed expected contract revenue. The provision for expensesis based on the best estimate required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period.
Legal proceedings often involve complex legal issues and are subject to substantial uncertainties. Accordingly,considerable judgment is part of determining whether it is probable that there is a present obligation as a result of a pastevent at the end of the reporting period, whether it is probable that such a Legal Proceeding will result in an outflow ofresources and whether the amount of the obligation can e reliably estimated. Internal and external counsels are generallypart of the determination process.

The Company's Board of Directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the Company's riskmanagement framework.

Risk management policies and systems are reviewed regularly to reflect changes in market conditions and the Company'sactivities.
Credit risk is the risk of incurring a loss that may arise from a borrower or debtor failing to make required payments.Credit risk arises mainly from outstanding receivables from free market dealers, cash and cash equivalents, employeeadvances and security deposits. The Company manages and analyses the credit risk for each of its new clients beforestandard payment and delivery terms and conditions are offered.
(i) Credit risk management
The Company's exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristics of each customer. Thedemographics of the customer and including the default risk of the industry, also has an influence on credit riskassessment. Credit risk is managed through credit approvals, establishing credit limits and continuously monitoring thecreditworthiness of customers to which Company grants credit terms in the normal course of business.
The Company considers the probability of default upon initial recognition of asset and whether there has been a significantincrease in credit risk on an ongoing basis through each reporting period. To assess whether there is a significant increasein credit risk the company compares the risk of default occurring on asset as at the reporting date with the risk of defaultas at the date of initial recognition. It considers reasonable and supportive forwarding-looking information such as
? Actual or expected significant adverse change in business;
? Actual or expected significant changes in the operating results of the counterparty;
? Financial or economic conditions that are expected to cause a significant change to the counterparty's ability to meetits obligation;
? Significant increase in credit risk on other financial instruments of the same counterparty;
? Significant changes in the value of the collateral supporting the obligation or in the quality of the third-party guaranteesor credit enhancements.
Financial assets are written off when there are no reasonable expectations of recovery, such as a debtor failing to engagein a repayment plan with the Company. Where loans or receivables have been written off, the Company continues toengage in enforcement activity to attempt to recover the receivable due. Where recoveries are made, these are recognizedas income in the statement of profit and loss.
For trade receivables, the Company applies the simplified approach permitted by Ins AS-109 Financial Instruments,which requires expected lifetime losses to be recognized from initial recognition of the receivable. When determiningwhether the credit risk of the financial asset has increased significantly since initial recognition and when estimatingexpected credit losses, the Company considers reasonable and relevant information that is available without undue costor effort. This includes both quantitative and qualitative information and analysis, based on the Company's historicalexperience and informed credit assessment and including forward looking information.
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will encounter difficulty in meeting the obligations associated with its financialliabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset.
