14. Financial InstrumentsRecognition, Initial Measurementand de-recognition
Financial Assets and FinancialLiabilities are recognised when theCompany becomes a party to thecontractual provisions of the financialinstrument and are measured initiallyat fair value adjusted by transactioncosts, except for those carried at fairvalue through profit or loss (FVTPL)which is measured initially at fair value.Subsequent measurement of FinancialAssets and Financial Liabilities aredescribed below.
Classification and SubsequentMeasurement of Financial Assets
For purpose of subsequentmeasurement financial assets areclassified in two broad categories:-
• Amortized Cost
• Financial assets at FVTPL
All financial assets except for thoseat FVTPL are subject to review forimpairment.
Amortised cost
A financial asset shall be measured atamortised cost using effective interestrates if both of the following conditionsare met:
a) The financial asset is held within abusiness model whose objective isto hold financial assets in order tocollect contractual cash flows; and
b) The contractual terms of the financial
assets give rise on specified dates tocash flows that are solely paymentsof principal and interest on theprincipal amounts outstanding.
The Company's cash and cashequivalents, trade and otherreceivables fall into this category offinancial instruments.
Impairment of financial assetsExpected credit losses are recognizedfor all financial assets subsequent toinitial recognition other than financialassets in FVTPL category.
For receivables and contract assets,the Company applies the simplifiedapproach permitted by Ind AS 109Financial instruments, which requiresexpected lifetime losses to berecognized from initial recognitionof the trade receivables and contractassets.
Financial Assets are derecognisedwhen the contractual rights to thecash flows from the Financial Assetsexpire, or when the Financial Assetsand all substantial risks and rewardsare transferred. A Financial Liability isderecognised when it is extinguished,discharged, cancelled or expires.
i. As a lessee
The Company recognizes a right-of-useasset and a lease liability at the leasecommencement date. The right-of-use asset is initially measured at cost,which comprises the initial amountof the lease liability adjusted for anylease payments made at or before thecommencement date, plus any initialdirect cost incurred and an estimateof costs to dismantle and remove theunderlying asset or to restore theunderlying asset or the site on whichit is located, less any lease incentivesreceived.
The right-of-use asset is subsequentlydepreciated using the straight-linemethod from the commencement dateto the earlier of the end of the usefullife of the right-to-use asset or theend of the lease term. The estimateduseful life of right-of-use asset isdetermined on the same basis as thoseof property, plant and equipment.In addition, the right-of-use asset isperiodically reduced by impairmentlosses, if any, and adjusted for certainremeasurements of the lease liability.The lease liability is initially measuredat the present value of the leasepayments that are not paid at thecommencement date, discountedusing the interest rate implicit inthe lease or, if that rate cannot bereadily determined, the Company'sincremental borrowing rate.
The lease liability is measured atamortized cost using the effectiveinterest method. It is remeasuredwhen there is a change in futurelease payments from a change inan index or rate. When the leaseliability is remeasured in this way, acorresponding adjustment is made tothe carrying amount of the right-of-useasset, or is recorded in the profit and
loss if the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset has been reduced to zero.
The Company presents right-of-useasset that do not meet the definition ofinvestment property in “Property, plantand equipment” and lease liabilitiesin “other financial liabilities” in theBalance Sheet.
Short term leases and leases of lowvalue assets: The Company has electednot to recognize right-of-use asset andlease liabilities for short term leasesthat have a lease term of 12 monthsor less and leases of low value assets.The Company recognizes the leasepayments associated with these leasesas an expense on a straight-line basisover the lease term.
Cancellable lease: The Companyrecognise the lease paymentsassociated with the leases which arecancellable in nature as expense on astraight-line basis over the lease term.
ii. As a lessor
When the Company acts as a lessor,it determines at lease inceptionwhether each lease is a finance leaseor an operating lease. To classify eachlease, the Company makes an overallassessment of whether the leasetransfers substantially all the risk andrewards incidental to the ownershipof the underlying asset. If this is thecase, then the lease is a finance lease,if not, then it is an operating lease. Aspart of the assessment, the Companyconsiders certain indicators such aswhether the lease is for the major partof the economic life of the asset.
If an arrangement contains lease andnon-lease components, the Companyapplies Ind AS 115 “Revenue fromcontract with customers” to allocatethe consideration in the contract.
The Company recognizes leasepayments received under operatinglease as income on a straight linebasis over the lease term as part of“Revenue”.
The company discloses certainfinancial information both includingand excluding exceptional items. Thepresentation of information excludingexceptional items allows a betterunderstanding of the underlying
performance of the company andprovides consistency with thecompany's internal managementreporting. Exceptional items areidentified by virtue of either theirsize or nature so as to facilitatecomparison with prior periods andto assess underlying trends in thefinancial performance of the company.Exceptional items can include, but arenot restricted to, gains and losses onthe disposal of assets/ investments.
Material prior period items which arisein the current period as a result oferror or omission in the preparation ofprior period's financial statement arecorrected retrospectively in the firstset of financial statements approvedfor issue after their discovery by:
a) restating the comparativeamounts for the prior period(s)presented in which the erroroccurred; or
b) if the error occurred before theearliest prior period presented,restating the opening balancesof assets, liabilities and equityfor the earliest prior periodpresented.
c) Any items exceeding rupeesfive lakhs ('5 Lakhs) shall beconsidered as material priorperiod item.
d) Retrospective restatementshall be done except to theextent that it is impracticableto determine either theperiod specific effects orthe cumulative effect of theerror. When it is impracticableto determine the periodspecific effects of an erroron comparative informationfor one or more prior periodspresented, the company shallrestate the opening balancesof assets, liabilities and equityfor the earliest prior for whichretrospective restatement ispracticable (which may be thecurrent period).
Cash and cash equivalents comprisecash at bank and on hand. It includesterm deposits and other short-term
money market deposits with originalmaturities of three months or lessthat are readily convertible to knownamounts of cash and which are subjectto an insignificant risk of changes invalue.
Operating segments are reported in amanner consistent with the internalreporting provided to the chiefoperating decision maker.
The Board of Directors assesses thefinancial performance and positionof the group and makes strategicdecisions and have identified businesssegment as its primary segment.

Thecash flows from operating, investingand financing activities of the companyare segregated.
