Actual results may differ from these estimates. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimates are revised and in any future periods affected.

vi. Measurement of defined benefit obligation.
vii. Impairment of Non-financial assets and financial assets.
4. Revenue Recognition
a. Interest income is recognized on accrual basis using the effective interest method.

5. Property, Plant and Equipment
a. Measurement and recognition:
An item of property, plant and equipment that qualifies as an asset is measured on initial recognition at cost.
Following initial recognition, items of property, plant and equipment are carried at its cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any.
The cost of an item of property, plant and equipment comprises of its purchase price including import duties and other non-refundable purchase taxes or levies, directly attributable cost of bringing the asset to its working condition for its intended use and the initial estimate of decommissioning, restoration and similar liabilities, if any.
Subsequent expenditure is capitalised only if it is probable that the future economic benefits associated with the expenditure will flow to the company.
Depreciation is provided using straight-line method as specified in Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013. Depreciation on assets acquired / disposed off during the year is provided on pro-rata basis with reference to the date of addition / disposal.
c. Derecognition: ,
An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from continued use of the asset. Any gain or loss arising on the disposal or retirement of property, plant and equipment is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying amount of the assets and is recognised in Statement of Profit and Loss.
6. Intangible assets
a. Measurement and recognition: |.ccoc
Intangible assets are held at cost less accumulated amortisation an^.imPairmf^t;ri,°^.enSp Intangible assets developed or acquired with finite useful life are amortised on straight line
basis over the usefullife of asset. _
Subsequent expenditure is capitalised only when it increases the 5.^'^
embodied in the specific asset to which it relates or when aoodw L
achieved. All other expenditure, including expenditure on inteff£fyAlAI®rs ]n)9 and brands, when incurred is recognised in statement of profit
b. Amortisation .
The intangible assets of the Company are assessed to be of finite lives and are amortized over the useful economic life and assessed for impairment whenever there is an indication that the intangible asset may be impaired. The Company reviews amortization period on an annua! basis. Intangible assets are amortized on straight line basis in accordance with IND AS 38 and Schedule II to the Companies Act,2013 or based on technical estimates.
c. Derecognition:
Gains or losses arising from derecognition of an intangible asset are measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss when the asset is derecognised.
7. Impairment of non-financial asset
The company assesses at each reporting date whether there is any objective evidence that a non-financial asset or a group of non-financial assets are impaired. If any such indication exists, the company estimates the amount of impairment loss. For the purpose of assessing impairment, the smallest identifiable group of assets that generates cash inflows from continuing use that are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or group of assets is considered as cash generating unit. If any such indication exists, an estimate of the recoverable amount of the individual asset/cash generating unit is made.
An impairment loss is calculated as the difference between an asset's carrying amount and recoverable amount. Losses are recognized in profit or loss and reflected in an allowance account. When the company considers that there are no realistic prospects of recovery of the asset, the relevant amounts are written off. If the amount of impairment loss subsequently decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognized, then the previously recognized impairment loss is reversed through profit or loss.
When an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset (or a cash-generating unit) is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but so that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been in place had there been no impairment loss been recognized for the asset (or cash-generating unit) in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognized immediately in Statement of Profit and Loss, taking into account the normal depreciation/amortization,
8. Employee Benefits
A. Short Term Employee Benefits
