XII. Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent AssetsProvisions
A provision is recognized if, as a result of a past event, the Company has a present legal or constructiveobligation that can be estimated reliably, and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will berequired to settle the obligation.
Provisions are measured at the present value of management's best estimate of the expenditure requiredto settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period. The discount rate used to determine thepresent value is a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money andthe risks specific to the liability. The increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised asinterest expense and is recorded over the estimated time period until settlement of the obligation.Provisions are reviewed and adjusted, when required, to reflect the current best estimate at the end ofeach reporting period.
The Company recognizes decommissioning provisions in the period in which a legal or constructiveobligation arises. A corresponding decommissioning cost is added to the carrying amount of theassociated property, plant and equipment, and it is depreciated over the estimated useful life of the asset.A provision for onerous contracts is recognized when the expected benefits to be derived by the companyfrom a contract are lower than the unavoidable cost of meeting its obligations under contract. Theprovision is measured at the present value of the lower of expected cost of terminating the contract andthe expected net cost of continuing with the contract. Before a provision is established, the companyrecognizes any impairment loss on the assets associated with that contract.
Liquidated Damages / Penalty as per the contracts / Additional Contract Claims / Counter Claims underthe contract entered into with Vendors and Contractors are recognized at the end of the contract or asagreed upon.
Contingent Liabilities

A present obligation arising from past events, when no reliable estimate is possible;
A possible obligation arising from past events whose existence will be confirmed by the occurrence ornon-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events beyond the control of the company where theprobability of outflow of resources is not remote.

XIII. Fair Value Measurements
Company uses the following hierarchy when determining fair values:
Level 1 - Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability,either directly (prices) or indirectly (derived from prices); and,
Level 3 - Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data.
The fair value of financial instruments traded in active markets is based on quoted market prices at thereporting dates. A market is regarded as active if quoted prices are readily and regularly available froman exchange, dealer, broker, industry group, pricing service, or regulatory agency, and those pricesrepresent actual and regularly occurring market transactions on an arm's length basis. The fair value forthese instruments is determined using Level 1 inputs.
The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market (for example, over thecounter derivatives) is determined by using valuation techniques. These valuation techniques maximizethe use of observable market data where it is available and rely as little as possible on entity specificestimates. If all significant inputs required to fair value an instrument are observable, the instrument isfair valued using level 2 inputs.
If one or more of the significant inputs is not based on observable market data, the instrument is fairvalued using Level 3 inputs. Specific valuation techniques used to value financial instruments include:Quoted market prices or dealer quotes for similar instruments;
The fair value of interest rate swaps is calculated as the present value of the estimated future cashflowsbased on observable yield curves;
The fair value of forward foreign exchange contracts is determined using forward exchange rates at thereporting dates, with the resulting value discounted back to present value;
Other techniques, such as discounted cash flow analysis, are used to determine fair value for theremaining financial instruments
XIV. Revenue Recognition
Revenue is recognized and measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, to theextent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Company and the revenue can bereliably measured.
The company collects GST, service tax, sales taxes and value added taxes (VAT) on behalf of thegovernment and, therefore, these are not economic benefits flowing to the company. Hence, they areexcluded from revenue. The following specific recognition criteria must also be met before revenue isrecognized:
Insurance Claims
Insurance claims are recognized on acceptance / receipt of the claim.
Interest
Revenue is recognized as the interest accrues, using the effective interest method. This is the method ofcalculating the amortized cost of a financial asset and allocating the interest income over the relevantperiod using the effective interest rate, which is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cashreceipts through the expected life of the financial asset to the net carrying amount of the financial asset.Dividends
Dividends are recognised in profit or loss only when the right to receive payment is established.
XV. Foreign Currency Transactions

XVI. Minimum Alternative Tax (MAT)
