xxiv) 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.
The amount recognized 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.
Provisions are not discounted to present value and are determined based on best estimate required to settle the obligation at the balance sheet date. These are reviewed at each balance sheet date and adjusted to reflect the current best estimates.
xxv) 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.
xxvi) Earnings per Share
The basic earnings per share is computed by dividing the net profit attributable to equity shareholders for the period by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period.
The number of shares used in computing diluted earnings per share comprises the weighted average shares considered for deriving basic earnings per share, and also the weighted average number of equity shares which could be issued on the conversion of all dilutive potential equity shares

Note 37 : Financial Risk Management
Risk management framework
The Company’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks, including market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The Company’s primary risk management focus is to minimize potential adverse effects of all the risk on its financial performance. The Board of Directors and the Audit Committee are responsible for overseeing the Company’s risk assessment and management policies and processes.
The Company’s has exposure to the following risks arising from financial instruments:
Ý Credit risk ;
Ý Market risk ; and
Ý Liquidity risk
1. Credit Risk
The Credit risk arises from the possibility that the counter party may not be able to settle their obligations as agreed. To manage this, the Company periodically assess financial reliability of customers, taking into account the financial condition, current economic trends, and analysis of historical bad debts and ageing of accounts receivable. Individual risk limits are set and periodically reviewed on the basis of such Information.
Financial assets are written off when there is no reasonable expectations of recovery, such as a debtor failing to engage in a repayment plan with the company. The Company categorises a trade receivable for write off when a debtor fails to make contractual payments or on case to case basis. Where trade receivables have been written off, the company continues to engage in enforcement activity to attempt to recover the receivable due. Where recoveries are made, these are recognized as Income in the statement of profit or loss.
The Company measures loss rate for trade receivables from Individual customers based on the historical trend, industry practices and the business environment in which the entity operates . Loss rates are based on Past Trends. Based on the historical data, no probable loss on collection of receivable is anticipated & hence no provision is considered.
In case of Credit risks from balances with banks and financial institutions, the Company attempts to limit the credit risk by only dealing with reputable banks and financial institutions having high credit-ratings assigned by credit¬ rating agencies.
In addition, the Company is exposed to credit risk in relation to financial guarantees given to banks and other counterparties. The Company’s maximum exposure in this respect is the maximum amount that the Company would have to pay if the guarantee is called upon. The maximum exposure relating to financial guarantees instruments is disclosed in note no 31 (contingent liabilities).
2. Market risk
Market Risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. Market risk comprises mainly of currency risk and interest rate risk.

ii) Interest rate Risk
