Provisions are recognized when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive),as a result of past events, and it is probable that an outflow of resources, that can be reliablyestimated, will be required to settle such an obligation. If the effect of the time value of moneyis material, provisions are discounted using a current pre-tax rate that reflects, whenappropriate, the risks specific to the liability. When discounting is used, the increase in theprovision due to the passage of time is recognised as a finance cost. Provisions are reviewedat each reporting date and are adjusted to reflect the current best estimate.
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash at bank and on hand and short-term money marketdeposits with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to knownamounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value.
For the purpose of the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash andshort-term deposits, as defined above.
The assessments undertaken in recognising provisions and contingencies have been made inaccordance with the applicable Ind AS.
Provisions represent liabilities for which the amount or timing is uncertain. Provisions arerecognized when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive), as a result ofpast events, and it is probable that an outflow of resources, that can be reliably estimated, willbe required to settle such an obligation.
If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are determined by discountingthe expected future cash flows to net present value using an appropriate pre-tax discount ratethat reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and, where appropriate,the risks specific to the liability. Unwinding of the discount is recognized in Statement of profitand loss as a finance cost. Provisions are reviewed at each reporting date and are adjusted toreflect the current best estimate.
A contingent liability is a possible obligation that arises from past events whose existence willbe confirmed by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future eventsbeyond the control of the Company or a present obligation that is not recognised because it isnot probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation. A contingentliability also arises in extremely rare cases where there is a liability that cannot be recognisedbecause it cannot be measured reliably. The Company does not recognize a contingent liabilitybut discloses its existence in the Balance Sheet.
In the normal course of business, contingent liabilities may arise from litigation and other claimsagainst the Company. There are certain obligations which management has concluded, basedon all available facts and circumstances, are not probable of payment or are very difficult toquantify reliably, and such obligations are treated as Contingent liabilities and disclosed in thenotes but are not reflected as liabilities in the financial statements. Although there can be noassurance regarding the final outcome of the legal proceedings in which the Company isinvolved, it is not expected that such contingencies will have a material effect on its financialposition or profitability.
Contingent assets are not recognised but disclosed in the financial statements when an inflowof economic benefit is probable.
The Company has significant capital commitments in relation to various capital projects whichare not recognized on the balance sheet but disclosed in the financial statement.
Standards issued but not yet effective
There are no new amendments proposed in the existing Ind AS.
The preparation of the standalone financial statements in conformity with Ind AS requiresmanagement to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application ofaccounting policies and the reported amount of assets, liabilities, income, expenses anddisclosures of contingent liabilities at the date of these financial statements. Actual results maydiffer from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions.
The management believes that the estimates used in preparation of the consolidated financialstatements are prudent and reasonable. Information about estimates and judgments made inapplying accounting policies that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognizedin the consolidated financial statements are as follows:
The Company’s activities expose it to market risk, liquidity risk and credit risk. The Company's boardof directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the Company's riskmanagement framework. This note explains the sources of risk which the entity is exposed to and howthe entity manages the risk and the related impact in the financial statements.
A Market Risk
Market risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuatebecause of changes in market prices. The objective of market risk management is to manage andcontrol market risk exposures within acceptable parameters, while optimising the return. Market riskcomprises three types of risk: interest rate risk, currency risk and other price risk, such as equity pricerisk and commodity risk. Financial instruments affected by market risk include loans and borrowings,other financial liabilities and deposits.
i Liabilities
Interest rate risk exposure
The company’s fixed rate borrowings are carried at amortised cost. They are therefore not subject tointerest rate risk as defined in Ind AS 107, since neither the carrying amount nor the future cash flowswill fluctuate because of a change in market interest rates
ii Assets
The company’s fixed deposits are carried at fixed rate. Therefore not subject to interest rate risk asdefined in Ind AS 107, since neither the carrying amount nor the future cash flows will fluctuatebecause of a change in market interest rates
B Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will encounter difficulty in meeting the obligationsassociated with its financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset. TheCompany's approach to managing liquidity is to ensure as far as possible, that it will have sufficientliquidity to meet its liabilities when they are due. Management monitors rolling forecasts of theCompany’s liquidity position and cash and cash equivalents on the basis of expected cash flows. TheCompany takes into account the liquidity of the market in which the entity operates.
