Provisions are recognized, when there is a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events,where it is probable that there will be outflow of resources to settle the obligation and when a reliable estimateof the amount of the obligation can be made. Where a provision is measured using the cash flows estimatedto settle the present obligation, its carrying amount is the present value of those cash flows. Where the effectis material the provision is discounted to net present value using an appropriate current market-based pre-taxdiscount rate and the unwinding of the discount is included in finance costs.
Contingent liabilities are recognized only when there is a possible obligation arising from past events, due tooccurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events, not wholly within the control of theCompany, or where any present obligation cannot be measured in terms of future outflow of resources, orwhere a reliable estimate of the obligation cannot be made. The company does not recognize a contingentliability but disclose its existence in financial statements.
Contingent assets are not disclosed in the financial statements unless an inflow of economic benefits is highlyprobable.
Dividend to equity shareholders is recognized as a liability and deducted from shareholders equity, in the periodin which the dividends are approved by the equity shareholders in the general meeting.

(i) Expected to be realised or intended to be sold or consumed in normal operating cycle,
(ii) Held primarily for the purpose of trading,
(iii) Expected to be realised within twelve months after the reporting period, or
(iv) Cash or cash equivalents unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at leasttwelve months after the reporting period.
All other assets are classified as non-current.
A Liability is current when:
(i) It is expected to be settled in normal operating cycle,
(ii) It is held primarily for the purpose of trading,

(iv) There is no unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after thereporting period.
The Company classifies all other liabilities as non-current.

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with the Ind AS requires management to makejudgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reportedamounts of assets, liabilities and disclosures as at date of the financial statements and the reported amountsof the revenues and expenses for the years presented. The estimates and associated assumptions are based onhistorical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from theseestimated under different assumptions and conditions.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimatesare recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period or in theperiod of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.
In the process of applying the Company's accounting policies, management has made the followingjudgments, which have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the financial statements:
B Discount rate used to determine the carrying amount of the Company's definedbenefit obligation
In determining the appropriate discount rate for plans operated in India, the management considers theinterest rate of government bonds in currencies consistent with the currencies of the post-employmentbenefit obligation.
In the normal course of business, contingent liabilities may arise from litigations and other claims againstthe company. Where the potential liabilities have a low probability of crystallizing or are very difficultto quantify reliable, we treat them as contingent liabilities. Such liabilities are disclosed in the notes butare not provided for in the financial statements. Although there can be no assurance regarding the finaloutcome of the legal proceedings, we do not expect them to have a materially adverse impact on ourfinancial position or profitability.
The key assumptions concerning the future, and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the end ofthe reporting period that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amountsof assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed below:
As described in Note 2, the company reviews the estimated useful lives and residual values of property,plant and equipment at the end of each reporting period. During the current financial year, themanagement determined that there were no changes to the useful lives and residual values of theproperty, plant and equipment.
The company makes allowances for doubtful debts based on an assessment of the recoverability of tradeand other receivables. The identification of doubtful debts requires use of judgment and estimates.Where the expectation is different from the original estimate, such difference will impact the carryingvalue of the trade and other receivables and doubtful debts expenses in the period in which such estimatehas been changed.
Management reviews the inventory age listing on a periodic basis. This review involves comparison ofthe carrying value of the aged inventory items with the respective net realizable value. The purpose is toascertain whether an allowance is required to be made in the financial statements for any obsolete andslow- moving items. Management is satisfied that adequate allowance for obsolete and slow-movinginventories has been made in the financial statements.
In making judgment for liability for sales return, the management considered the detailed criteria forthe recognition of revenue from the sale of goods set out in Ind AS 115 and in particular, whetherthe company has transferred to the buyer the significant risk and rewards of ownership of the goods.Following the detailed quantification of the Company's liability towards sales return, the managementis satisfied that significant risk and rewards have been transferred and that recognition of the revenuein the current year is appropriate, in conjunction with the recognition of an appropriate liability for salesreturn. Accruals for estimated product returns, which are based on historical experience of actual salesreturns and adjustment on account of current market scenario is considered by Company to be reliableestimate of future sales returns.

Commitments are actuarially determined at year end. The actuarial valuation is done based on" Projected Unit Credit " method. These plan typically expose the company to actuarial risk such as ; investment risk,interest rate risk, longevity risk and salary risk.
The present value of defined benefit liability is calculated using discount rate which is determined by using referenceto market yields at the end of reporting period on government bonds. If return on planned assets is below this rate itwill create plan deficit.
A decrease in bond interest rate will increase the plan liability; however this will partially offset by an increase in planassets.
The present value of defined benefit plan is calculated by reference to the best estimate of the mortality of planparticipants. An increase in life expectancy of plan participants will increase the plan's liability.
The present value of defined benefit plan is calculated by reference to the future salary of plan participants. As suchan increase in the salary of plan participants will increase the plan's liability.

This is mainly attributable to the exposure outstanding on receivables and payables in thecompany at the end of the reporting period. The sensitivity analysis includes only outstanding foreign currencydenominated monetary items and adjusts their translation at the period end for a 5% charge in foreign currencyrate. A positive number below indicates an increase in the profit or equity share where the Rupee Strengthens 5%against the relevant currency.
