3.14 Provisions and contingencies
3.14.1 Provisions
Provisions are recognised when the Company has a present obligation as a result of a past event and it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.
The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. When the effect of time value is material, the amount is determined by discounting the expected future cash flows.
3.14.2 Contingent liabilities
Contingent liabilities are disclosed when there is a possible obligation arising from past events, the existence of which will be confirmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of the Company or a present obligation that arises from past events where it is either not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle or a reliable estimate of the amount cannot be made.
3.15 Financial instruments
A financial instrument is any contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one entity and a financial liability or equity instrument of another entity.
3.15.1.1 Recognition and measurement
All financial assets are recognised initially at fair value plus (other than financial assets at fair value through profit or loss) transaction costs that are attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset. Purchases or sales of financial assets that require delivery of assets within a time frame established by regulation or convention in the market place (regular way trades) are recognised on the trade date, i.e. the date that the Company commits to purchase or sell the asset.
All recognised financial assets are subsequently measured in their entirety at either amortised cost or fair value, depending on the classification of the financial assets.
3.15.1.2 Classification of financial assets
Classification of financial assets depends on the nature and purpose of the financial assets and is determined at the time of initial recognition. The Company classifies its financial assets in the following measurement categories:
a) those measured at amortized cost,
b) those to be measured subsequently at fair value, either through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI) or through profit or loss (FVTPL)
Financial assets at amortised cost:
A financial assets is measured at the amortised cost if both the following conditions are met:
a) The asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets for collecting contractual cash flows, and
b) Contractual terms of the asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest (SPPI) on the principal amount outstanding.
Financial assets at FVTOCI:
A financial asset is classified as at the FVTOCI if both of the following criteria are met unless the asset is designated at fair value through profit or loss under fair value option.
a) The objective of the business model is achieved both by collecting contractual cash flows and selling the financial asset, and
b) The asset's contractual cash flows represent SPPI.
Financial assets at FVTPL:
FVTPL is a residual category for financial assets. Any asset, which does not meet the criteria for categorization as at amortized cost or as FVTOCI, is classified as at FVTPL.
3.15.1.4 Derecognition
A financial asset is primarily derecognised when:
a) The rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired, or
b) The Company has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from the asset or has assumed an obligation to pay the received cash flows in full without material delay to a third party under a 'pass¬ through' arrangement; and either (a) the Company has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, or (b) the Company has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, but has transferred control of the asset.
3.15.1.5 Impairment of financial assets
In accordance with Ind AS 109, the Company applies expected credit loss (ECL) model for measurement and recognition of impairment loss on the following financial assets and credit risk
a) Financial assets that are debt instruments, and are measured at amortised cost e.g., loans, debt securities, deposits and bank balance.
b) Any contractual right to receive cash or another financial asset that result from transactions that are within the scope of Ind AS 18.
The Company believes that, considering their nature of business and past history, the expected credit loss in relation to its financial assets is non-existent or grossly immaterial. Thus, the Company has not recognised any provision for expected credit loss. The Company reviews this policy annually, if
3.15.2 Financial liabilities
3.15.2.1 Recognition and measurement
Financial liabilities are classified, at initial recognition, as financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, borrowings, payables, as appropriate.
All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value and, in the case of borrowings and payables, net of directly attributable transaction costs.
The Company's financial liabilities include trade and other payables and borrowings.
All recognised financial liabilities are subsequently measured in their entirety at either amortised cost or fair value, depending on the classification of the financial liabilities.
3.15.2.2 Derecognition
A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires. When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as the derecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability. The difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognised in the statement of profit
3.16 Offsetting financial instruments
Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the balance sheet where there is a legally enforceable right to offset the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
3.17 Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents comprises cash on hand, cash at bank and short term deposits with an original maturity of three months or less, which are subject to insignificant risk of changes in value.
3.18 Earnings per share (EPS)
Basic earnings per share has been computed by dividing the profit/(loss) after tax by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year.
For the purpose of calculating diluted earnings per share, the profit/(loss) after tax and the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year are adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potential equity share (if any).
4.1 The Company has elected to continue with the carrying value of all of its property, plant and equipment as at the transition date of April 1, 2018 measured as per the previous GAAP and use that carrying value as its deemed cost as of the transition date.
20.1 First time adoption of Ind AS
The Company adopted Ind AS effective from April 1, 2018, and has been preparing its financial statements in accordance with these standards. The effects of the Company's transition to Ind
(i) Transition elections
(ii) Reconciliation of equity, total comprehensive income, balance sheet, profit and loss and cash flows as reported as per Ind AS in this statement with as reported in previous years as per previous GAAP.
20.2 Transition elections
The Company has prepared the opening balance sheet as per Ind AS as of April 1, 2017 (the transition date) by recognising all assets and liabilities whose recognition is required by Ind AS, not recognising items of assets or liabilities which are not permitted by Ind AS, by reclassifying items from previous GAAP to Ind AS as required under Ind AS and applying Ind AS in measurement of recognised assets and liabilities. However, this principle is subject to certain exception and certain optional exemptions availed by the Company as detailed below.
20.3 Exemptions applied
Ind AS 101 allows first-time adopters certain exemptions from the retrospective application of certain requirements under Ind AS. The Company has accordingly applied the following
20.4 Deemed cost of property, plant and equipment and other intangibles assets
The Company has opted to consider previous GAAP carrying value of property, plant and equipment and other intangible assets as deemed cost on transition date.
20.5 Leases
The Company has opted to determine whether an arrangement existing at the date of transition contains a lease, on the basis of facts and circumstances existing at the date of transition rather than at the inception of the arrangement.
21 Significant accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions
The preparation of the financial statements requires management of the Company to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that effect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities, and the accompanying disclosures, and the disclosure of contingent liabilities. Uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets or liabilities affected in future periods.
In the process of applying the accounting policies, management has made the following judgements, which have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements:
22 Deferred tax assets
The extent to which deferred tax assets can be recognized is based on an assessment of the probability of the Company's future taxable income against which the deferred tax assets can be utilized.
23 Defined benefit obligation (DBO)
Management's estimate of the DBO is based on a number of critical underlying assumptions such as standard rates of inflation, medical cost trends, mortality, discount rate and anticipation of future salary increases. Variation in these assumptions may significantly impact the DBO amount and the annual defined benefit expenses.
24 Useful lives of porperty, plant and equipment and intangible assets
The Company reviews the estimated useful lives at the end of each reporting period.
25 Contingent liabilities
The Company has ongoing litigations with various regulatory authorities and others. Where an outflow of funds is believed to be probable and a reliable estimate of the outcome of the dispute can be made based on management's assessment of specific circumstances of each dispute and relevant external advice, management provides for its best estimate of the liability.
