xiv) Provisions, Contingent Assets/ Contingent Liabilities
Provisions
Provisions are recognized when the company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.
Contingent Liabilities
A contingent liability is a possible obligation that arises from past events whose existence will be confirmed by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events beyond the control of the Company or a present obligation that is not recognized because it is not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation.
A contingent liability also arises in extremely rare cases where there is a liability that cannot be recognized because it cannot be measured reliably. The Company does not recognize a contingent liability but discloses its existence in the financial statements.
Contingent Assets
A contingent asset is a possible asset that arises from past events and whose existence will be confirmed only by the occurrence or non¬ occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of the entity.
The Company does not recognize a contingent asset but discloses its existence in the financial statements if the inflow of economic benefits is probable
xv) Leases
The Company evaluates contracts at inception to determine whether they contain a lease as defined under Ind AS 116 - Leases.
A contract is, or contains, a lease if it conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration.
Although the Company has been applying Ind AS 116 since its mandatory adoption, this is the first year in which the Company has recognised a material lease arrangement in its financial statements.
Accordingly, for contracts identified as leases, the Company recognises a right-of-use (ROU) asset and a corresponding lease liability at the lease commencement date. The ROU asset is measured at cost, comprising:
• The initial lease liability amount,
• Lease payments made at or before commencement,
• Initial direct costs,
• An estimate of dismantling or restoration costs,
• Less any lease incentives received.
The ROU asset is depreciated on a straight-line basis over the lease term or the useful life of the asset, whichever is shorter, and is subject to impairment testing under Ind AS 36.
The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of unpaid lease payments, discounted using the Company's incremental borrowing rate. Lease liabilities are remeasured for changes in lease terms, indices, rates, or estimates affecting residual value guarantees or exercise of options. Any resulting adjustment is made to the ROU asset or profit or loss if the carrying amount of the ROU asset has been reduced to zero.
The Company continues to apply the practical expedients for:
• Short-term leases (lease term of 12 months or less), and
• Leases of low-value assets,
by recognising the related lease payments as an expense over the lease term.
xvi) Mine closure, site restoration and decommissioning obligations:
An obligation for restoration, rehabilitation and environmental costs arises when environmental disturbance is caused by the development or ongoing extraction from mines.
The company recognises unavoidable obligations, legal or assumed, to restore the mines upon exhaustion of reserves/end of lease period whichever is earlier. The obligation is estimated on the basis of cash flows expected to be incurred as per applicable mining regulations.
The estimate of expenses are discounted at a discount rate that reflects the current market assessment of the time value of money and the risks, such that the amount of provision reflects the present value of the expenditures expected to be required to be settle the obligation.
The company records the liability for final reclamation and mine closure. The obligation is recognised in the period in which the liability is incurred.
The value of the provision is progressively increased over time as the effect of discounting unwinds creating an expense recognised as financial expenses. Subsequent adjustments if any to the obligation for changes in the estimated cashflows/disbursement period/ discount rate is modified prospectively.
Income tax expense comprises current and deferred income tax. Income tax expense is recognized in the net profit in the statement of profit or loss except to the extent that it relates to items recognized in Other comprehensive income.
Current income tax for current and prior periods is recognized at the amount expected to be paid to or recovered from the tax authorities, using the tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantially enacted by the balance sheet date.
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for all temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements.
Deferred tax assets are generally recognized for all deductable temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that the taxable profits will be available against which those deductable temporary differences can be utilized. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent that is no longer probable that related tax benefits will be realized.
Deferred income tax is determined using tax rates (and laws) that have been enacted or substantially enacted by the end of the reporting period and are expected to apply when the related deferred income tax asset is realized, or the deferred income tax liability is settled.
Current tax assets and tax liabilities are offset where the entity has a legally enforceable right to offset and intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
Where the Company is entitled to claim special tax deductions for investments in qualifying assets or in relation to qualifying expenditure, the Company accounts for such allowances as tax credits, which means that the allowance reduce income tax payable and current tax expense.
Deferred tax relating to items recognised outside statement of profit or loss is recognised outside statement of profit or loss (either in other comprehensive income or in equity). Deferred tax items are recognised in correlation to the underlying transaction either in OCI or directly in equity.
A deferred tax asset is recognized for unclaimed tax credits that are carried forward as deferred tax assets.
Minimum Alternate Tax (MAT) Credit entitlement
Minimum Alternative Tax ('MAT') under the provisions of the Income Tax Act, 1961 is recognised as current tax in the statement of profit and loss. The credit available under the Act
in respect of MAT paid is recognised as an asset only when and to the extent there is convincing evidence that the company will pay normal income tax during the period for which the MAT credit can be carried forward for set-off against the normal tax liability. MAT credit recognised as an asset is reviewed at each balance sheet date and written down to the extent the aforesaid convincing evidence no longer exists.
xviii) Employee Benefits:
Employee benefits includes short term employee benefits, Post employment benefits, Other long¬ term benefits and Termination benefits.
Short term employee benefits:
The undiscounted amount of short-term employee benefits expected to be paid in exchange for the services rendered by employees are recognized during the year when the employees render the service. These benefits include performance incentive and compensated absences which are expected to occur within twelve months after the end of the period in which the employee renders the related service.
Post employment benefits:
a) Defined contribution plans:
These benefits include Pension, superannuation and Employee State Insurance (ESI). Entity contributes at statutorily prescribed minimum rates, monthly to Provident fund, ESI and will have no legal obligation to pay further contribution if fund doesn't have sufficient assets to pay all employee benefits relating to employee service in current and prior periods. Whereas yearly contribution is paid to Life Insurance Corporation towards superannuation Pension, monthly contributions are made in the case of Provident Fund and ESI. Thus, PF, Superannuation, ESI benefits are defined contribution plans. These contributions are recognized in statement of profit and loss by way of charge against income.
b) Defined benefits plans:
Leave Absences and Gratuity Cost of providing these benefits is determined using projected unit credit method by actuary at the end of each reporting period. Re¬ measurement, comprising actuarial gains and losses, the effect of the changes to the asset ceiling (if applicable) and the return on plan assets (excluding net interest), is reflected immediately in the balance sheet with a charge or credit recognised in other comprehensive income in the period in which they occur. Re-measurement recognised in other comprehensive income is reflected immediately in retained earnings
and is not reclassified to profit and loss. Past service cost is recognised in statement of profit and loss when the plan amendment or curtailment occurs. Gains or losses on settlement of a defined benefit plan are recognised when the settlement occurs. Net interest is calculated by applying the discount rate at the beginning of the period to the net defined benefit liability or asset.
It has two components, one is service cost and other is remeasurements.
Service cost comprises a) current service cost including gains/ loss on curtailment or settlements, b) past service cost in case of plan amendment c) net Interest expense or income. Remeasurements comprise actuarial gains/losses, return on plan assets excluding interest and effect of change in assets ceiling. Service cost is recognized in statement of profit or loss while remeasurements are in other comprehensive income.
c) Compensated Absences:
The employees of the Company are entitled to compensate absences. The employees can carry-forward a portion of the unutilised accrued compensated absence and utilise it in future periods or receive cash compensation at retirement or termination of employment for the unutilised accrued compensated absence. The Company records an obligation for compensated absences in the period in which the employee renders the services that increase this entitlement.
The Company measures the expected cost of compensated absence based on actuarial valuation made by an independent actuary as at the balance sheet date on projected unit credit method.
Compensated absences expected to be maturing after 12 months from the date of balance sheet are classified as non-current.
xix) Earnings per Share
The Company presents basic and diluted earnings per share data for its ordinary shares.
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit or loss attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year, adjusted for shares held. Diluted earnings per share is determined by adjusting the profit or loss attribute to ordinary shareholders and the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding, adjusted for shares held, for the effects of all dilutive potential ordinary shares.
Non-derivative financial instruments
Non-derivative financial instruments consist of:
Financial assets, which include cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, other advances and eligible current and non-current assets;
Financial liabilities, which include long and short¬ term loans and borrowings, trade payables, eligible current and non-current liabilities.
Non derivative financial instruments are recognized initially at fair value including any directly attributable transaction costs. Financial assets are derecognized when substantial risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset have been transferred. In cases where substantial risks and rewards of ownership of the financial assets are neither transferred nor retained, financial assets are derecognized only when the Company has not retained control over the financial asset.
Subsequent to initial recognition, non-derivative financial instruments are measured as described below:
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash comprises cash on hand, in bank and demand deposits with banks. Cash equivalents are short term balances (with an original maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition), highly liquid investments that are readily convertible into known amounts of cash and which are subject to insignificant risk of changes in value
Loans and receivables
Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. They are presented as current assets, except for those maturing later than 12 months after the reporting date which are presented as non-current assets. Loans and receivables are initially recognized at fair value plus directly attributable transaction costs and subsequently measured at amortized cost, less any impairment losses. Loans and receivables comprise trade receivables and other assets.
The company estimates the un-collectability of accounts receivable by analyzing historical payment patterns, customer concentrations, customer credit-worthiness and current economic trends. If the financial condition of a customer deteriorates, additional allowances may be required.
Borrowings
Borrowings are initially recognized when a Company becomes a party to the contractual
provisions subsequently measured at amortised cost using the EIR method.
Trade and payable
Liabilities are recognized for amounts to be paid in future for goods or services received, whether billed by the supplier or not.
xxi) Cash Flow Statement:
Cash flows are reported using the indirect method, whereby profit before tax is adjusted for the effects of transactions of a non-cash nature, any deferrals or accruals of past or future operating cash receipts or payments and item of income or expenses associated with investing or financing cash flows. The cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities of the Company are segregated.
xxii) Segment Information:

xxiv) Prior Period Errors
Errors of material amount relating to prior period(s) are disclosed by a note with nature of prior period errors, amount of correction of each such prior period presented retrospectively, to the extent practicable along with change in basic and diluted earnings per share.

B. Significant judgements in the application of this standard
(i) Revenue is recognized by the company when the company satisfies a performance obligation by transferring a promised good or service to its customers. Asset/goods/services are considered to be transferred when the customer obtains control of those asset/goods/services.
(ii) The company considers the terms of the contract and its customary business practices to determine the transaction price. The transaction price is the amount of consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring promised goods or services to a customer, excluding amounts collected on behalf of third parties (for example, GST etc.).
(iii) The consideration promised in a contract with a customer may include fixed amounts, variable amounts, or both. Any further adjustment will be made by raising debit/credit notes on the customer. While determining the transaction price effects of variable consideration, constraining estimates of variable consideration, the existence of a significant financing component in the contract, non-cash consideration and consideration payable to a customer is also considered.

The carrying amount of trade receivables represents company's maximum exposure to the credit risk. No other financial asset carry a significant exposure with respect to the credit risk. Bank deposits and cash balances are placed with reputable banks.
The credit quality of financial assets is satisfactory, taking into account the allowance for credit losses. The management also considers the factors that may influence the credit risk of its customer base, including default risk associated with the industry and country in which customers operate. Credit quality of a customer is assessed based on the past track record.
