g) Provision and contingencies
Provisions are recognised when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a resultof a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be requiredto settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. When theCompany expects some or all of a provision to be reimbursed, the reimbursement is recognised as aseparate asset, but only when the reimbursement is virtually certain. The expense relating to a provisionis presented in the 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 ratethat reflects, when appropriate, the risks specific to the liability. When discounting is used, the increase inthe provision due to the passage of time is recognised as a finance cost.
h) Leases
A contract is, or contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified assetfor a period of time in exchange for consideration
The company as a lessee
Leases are recognised as a right-of-use asset and a corresponding liability at the date at which the leasedasset is available for use by the Company. Contracts may contain both lease and non-lease components.The Company allocates the consideration in the contract to the lease and non-lease components based ontheir relative stand-alone prices.
Assets and liabilities arising from a lease are initially measured on a present-value basis. Lease liabilitiesinclude the net present value of the following lease payments:
> Fixed payments (including in-substance fixed payments), less any lease incentives receivable;
> Variable lease payments that are based on an index or a rate, initially measured using the index orrate as at the commencement date;
> Amounts expected to be payable by the Company under residual value guarantees;
> The exercise price of a purchase option if the Company is reasonably certain to exercise thatoption, and payments of penalties for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the Companyexercising that option.
Lease payments to be made under reasonably certain extension options are also included in themeasurement of the liability. The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease.If that rate cannot be readily determined, which is generally the case for leases in the Company, the lessee’sincremental borrowing rate is used, being the rate that the individual lessee would have to pay to borrowthe funds necessary to obtain an asset of similar value to the right-of-use asset in a similar economicenvironment with similar terms, security, and conditions. To determine the incremental borrowing rate,the Company uses a build-up approach that starts with a risk-free interest rate adjusted for credit risk forleases held by the Company, which does not have recent third-party financing and makes adjustmentsspecific to the lease, e.g. term, country, currency, and security.
Lease payments are allocated between principal and finance costs. The finance cost is charged to profit orloss over the lease period to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of theliability for each period. Variable lease payments that depend on sales are recognized in profit or loss inthe period in which the condition that triggers those payments occurs. The lease liability is subsequentlyremeasured by increasing the carrying amount to reflect interest on the lease liability, reducing thecarrying amount to reflect the lease payments made, and remeasuring the carrying amount to reflect anyreassessment or lease modifications or to reflect revised in-substance fixed lease payments. The Companyrecognises the amount of the re-measurement of lease liability due to modification as an adjustment tothe right-of-use asset and statement of profit and loss depending upon the nature of the modification.
“Right-of-use assets are measured at cost comprising the following:
a) the amount of the initial measurement of the lease liability
b) any lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received
c) any initial direct costs, and
d) restoration costs.
The right-of-use asset is subsequently measured at cost less any accumulated depreciation, and accumulatedimpairment losses, if any, and adjusted for any remeasurement of the lease liability. Right-of-use assets aregenerally depreciated over the shorter of the asset’s useful life and the lease term on a straight-line basis.The estimated useful lives of right-of-use assets are determined on the same basis as those of property,plant, and equipment. If the Company is reasonably certain to exercise a purchase option, the right-of-useasset is depreciated over the underlying asset’s useful life. Right-of-use assets are tested for impairmentwhenever there is any indication that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. Impairment loss, ifany, is recognised in the statement of profit and loss.
Payments associated with short-term leases of equipment and all leases of low-value assets are recognizedon a straight-line basis as an expense in profit or loss. Short-term leases are leases with a lease term of 12months or less.
i) Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalent in the balance sheet comprise cash at banks and on hand and short-termdeposits with an original maturity of three months or less, which are subject to an insignificant risk ofchanges in value.
For the purpose of the financial statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash andshort-term deposits, as defined above, net of outstanding bank overdrafts (if any) as they are consideredan integral part of the Company’s cash management.
j) Earnings per share (‘EPS’)
Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing the net profit or loss attributable to the equity holderof the Company (after deducting preference dividends and attributable taxes) by the weighted averagenumber of equity shares outstanding during the period. Partly paid equity shares are treated as a fractionof an equity share to the extent that they are entitled to participate in dividends relative to a fully paidequity share during the reporting period. The weighted average number of equity shares outstandingduring the period is adjusted for events such as bonus issues, bonus element in a rights issue, sharesplits, and reverse share splits (consolidation of shares) that have changed the number of equity sharesoutstanding, without a corresponding change in resources.
For the purpose of calculating diluted earnings per share, the net profit or loss for the period attributableto equity shareholders of the Company and the weighted average number of shares outstanding duringthe period are adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potential equity shares.
Cash flows are reported using the indirect method, whereby net profit/ (loss) before tax is adjusted for theeffects of transactions of a non-cash nature and any deferrals or accruals of past or future cash receipts orpayments. The cash flows from regular operating, investing, and financing activities of the Company aresegregated. Cash and cash equivalents in the cash flow statement comprise cash in hand and balance inthe bank in current accounts and deposit accounts.
The Company presents its assets and liabilities in the Balance Sheet based on current / non-currentclassification.
An asset is treated as current when it is:
a) expected to be realised or intended to be sold or consumed in the normal operating cycle;
b) held primarily for the purpose of trading;
c) expected to be realised within twelve months after the reporting period; or
d) cash or cash equivalent unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for atleast twelve months after the reporting period.
All other assets are classified as non-current. A liability is current when:
a) it is expected to be settled in the normal operating cycle;
b) it is held primarily for the purpose of trading;
c) it is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period; or
d) there is no unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least twelve months afterthe reporting period.
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 incash and cash equivalents. The Company has identified twelve months as its operating cycle.
Disclosure of contingent liability is made when there is a possible obligation arising from past events, theexistence of which will be confirmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertainfuture events not wholly within the control of the Company or a present obligation that arises from pastevents where it is either not probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will berequired to settle or a reliable estimate of the amount cannot be made.
n) Event after the reporting period
Where events occurring after the Balance Sheet date provide evidence of conditions that existed at the endof the reporting period, the impact of such events is adjusted within the Financial Statements. Otherwise,events after the Balance Sheet date of material size or nature are only disclosed
o) Assumptions and key sources of estimation uncertainty
Information about estimates and assumptions that have a significant effect on the recognition andmeasurement of assets, liabilities, income, and expenses is provided below. Actual results may differ fromthese estimates.
i. Useful life of property, plant, equipment, and intangible assets
Management reviews its estimate of the useful life of PPE and intangible assets at each reportingdate, based on the future economic benefits expected to be consumed from the assets.
ii. Defined benefit obligation (DBO)
Impact of the DBO amount Management’s estimate of the DBO is based on a number of criticalunderlying assumptions such as standard rates of inflation, medical cost trends, mortality, discountrate, and anticipation of future salary increases. Variations in these assumptions may significantlyand the annual defined benefit expenses.
iii. Provision for income tax
Significant judgments are involved in determining the provision for income taxes, including theamount expected to be paid/ recovered for uncertain tax positions.
iv. Recognition of deferred tax assets
The extent to which deferred tax assets can be recognized is based on an assessment of the probabilityof the Company’s future taxable income against which the deferred tax assets can be utilized. Inaddition, significant judgment is required in assessing the impact of any legal or economic limits oruncertainties
The fair values of the financial assets and liabilities are included at the amount at which the instrument could beexchanged in an orderly transaction in the principal (or most advantageous) market at the measurement dateunder the current market condition regardless of whether that price is directly observable or estimated usingother valuation techniques.
The Company has established the following fair value hierarchy that categorises the values into 3 levels. Theinputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value of financial instruments are:
Level 1: This hierarchy uses quoted (unadjusted) prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. The fairvalue of all bonds which are traded in the stock exchanges is valued using the closing price or dealer quotationsas at the reporting date.
Level 2: The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market (For example traded bonds,over the counter derivatives) is determined using valuation techniques which maximize the use of observablemarket data and rely as little as possible on company specific estimates. The mutual fund units are valued usingthe closing Net Asset Value. If all significant inputs required to fair value an instrument are observable, theinstrument is included in Level 2.
Level 3: If one or more of the significant inputs is not based on observable market data, the instrument isincluded in Level 3.
Credit risk refers to risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financialloss to the Company. Credit risk arises primarily from financial assets such as investment in mutualfunds, financial instruments, other balances with banks and other receivables. The Company has adopteda policy of only dealing with counterparties that have sufficiently high credit rating. The Company’sexposure and credit ratings of its counterparties are continuously monitored and the aggregate value oftransactions is reasonably spread amongst the counterparties.
b. Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is defined as the risk that the Company will not be able to settle or meet its obligations ontime or at reasonable price. Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash andthe availability of funding through an adequate amount of committed credit facilities to meet obligationswhen due and to close out market positions. Due to the dynamic nature of the underlying businesses,company maintains flexibility in funding by maintaining availability under committed credit lines.
Management monitors rolling forecasts of the Company’s liquidity position (comprising the undrawnborrowing facilities below) and cash and cash equivalents on the basis of expected cash flows. Thisis carried out in accordance with practice and limits set by the Company. In addition, the company’sliquidity management policy involves projecting cash flows and considering the level of liquid assetsnecessary to meet these, monitoring balance sheet liquidity ratios against internal and external regulatoryrequirements and maintaining debt financing plans.
Market risk is the risk of loss of future earnings, fair values or future cash flows that may result from achange in the price of a financial instrument. The value of a financial instrument may change as a result ofchanges in the interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices, equity prices and othermarket changes that affect market risk sensitive instruments. Market risk is attributable to all market risksensitive financial instruments including investments and deposits, foreign currency receivables, payablesand borrowings.
