2. Material Accounting Policies
2.1 Status of Compliance:
The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with Indian Accounting Standards (ind AS) prescribed under Section 133 of the Companies Act 2013, read with Companies (Indian Accounting Standard) Rules, 2015 as amended from time to time.
The financial statements have been prepared on accrual and going concern basis. The accounting policies are applied consistently to all the periods presented in the financial statements except where a newly issued Ind AS is initially adopted or a revision to an existing accounting standard required a change in the accounting policy hitherto in use.
The Board of Directors approved the financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2025 and authorised for issue on May 23,2025. The financial statements once approved by the Board of directors needs to be adopted by the shareholders at the onnual general meeting of the Company.
The Board of directors can withdraw and re-issue the financial statements so adopted only in specific cases such as non-compliance with the applicable accounting standards, with the approval of Tribunal, after following the appropriate procedure as per Companies Act, 2013.
2.2 Basis of preparation
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention on accrual basis except for the following assets and liabilities which have been measured at fair value or revalued amount:
- Financial instruments
- Defined benefit plans and other long-term employee benefits
- Share based payments
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date, regardless of whether that price is directly observable or estimated using another valuation technique. In estimating the fair value of an asset or a liability, the Company takes into account the characteristics of the asset or liability, if market participants would take those characteristics into account when pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. Fair value for measurement and/or disclosure purposes in these financial statements is determined on such a basis, except for leasing transactions that are within the scope of Ind AS 116 - Leases, and measurements that hove some similarities to fair value but are not fair value, such as net realisable value in Ind AS 2 - Inventories or value in use in Ind AS 36 - Impairment of Assets.
2.3. Functional and Presentation currency
These financial statements are presented in Indian National Rupee ('?'), which is the Company's functional currency. All amounts have been rounded to the nearest lakhs (if 00,000), except when otherwise indicated.
2.4 Summary of material accounting policies
The material accounting policies applied by the Company in the preparation of its financial statements are listed below. Such accounting policies have been applied consistently to all the periods presented in these financial statements, unless otherwise indicated.
A. Current and non-current classification
The Company segregates assets and liabilities into current and non-current categories for presentation in the balance sheet after considering its normal operating cycle and other criteria set out in Ind AS 1, "Presentation of Financial Statements". For this purpose, current assets and liabilities include the current portion of non-current assets and liabilities respectively. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are always classified as non-current.
The operating cycle is the time between the acquisition of assets for processing and their realisation in cash and cash equivalents. Based on the time involved between the acquisition of assets for processing and their realization in cash and cash equivalents, the Company has identified twelve months as its operating cycle far determining current and non-current classification of assets and liabilities in the balance sheet
B. Revenue from contract with customers Sale of software/hardware (customised bundled solution) and software services
Revenue on time-and-material contracts arerecognized as the related services are performed and revenue from the end of the last billing to the balance sheet date, which has not been billed, is recognized as unbilled revenues. Revenue from fixed-price, fixed-time frame contracts, where there is no uncertainty as to measurement or collectability of consideration, is recognized as per the percentage-of-completion method. When there is uncertainty as to measurement or ultimate collectability, revenue recognition is postponed until such uncertainty is resolved. Efforts or costs expended have been used to measure progress towards completion as there is a direct relationship between input and productivity. Maintenance revenue is recognized rateably over the term of the underlying maintenance arrangement Advances received for services and products are reported as client deposits until all conditions for revenue recognition are met
Sale from services
Revenue from value added services are recognized as per arrangement with the customers at the end of each month/period in which the services are rendered.
Interest income
Interest income from a financial asset is recognised when it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Company and the amount of income can be measured reliably. Interest income is accrued on a time basis, by reference to the principal outstanding and at the effective interest rate applicable, which is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset to that asset's net carrying amount on initial recognition.
Dividends
Revenue is recognised when the Company's right to receive the payment is established, which is generally when shareholders approve the dividend.
Rental income
Rental income arising from operating leases on investment properties and leasehold improvements is accounted for on a straight-line basis over the lease terms unless the payments by the lessee are structured to increase in line with expected general inflation to compensate for the lessor's expected inflationary cost increases. Rental income is included in other income in the statement of profit or loss.
C. Taxes
Tax expense comprises current tax expense and deferred tax.
Current tax
Current tax assets and liabilities are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted at the reporting date.
Current tax, relating to items recognised outside the statement of profit or loss, is recognised directly either in other comprehensive income or in equity in correlation to the underlying transaction. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in the tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulations are subject to interpretation and establishes provisions where appropriate.
Current tax assets is offset against current tax liabilities if, and only if, a legally enforceable right exists to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention either to settle on a net basis,
or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
Deferred Tax
Deferred tax is provided using the balance sheet approach on temporary differences between the tax base of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes at the reporting date.
Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences, except
- When the deferred tax liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss and does not give rise to equal taxable and deductible temporary differences
- In respect of taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates and interests in joint ventures, when the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences can be controlled and it is probable that the temporary differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future.
Deferred tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, the carry forward of unused tax credits and any unused tax losses. Deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, and the carry forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilised. The carrying value af deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the year when the asset Is realised or the liability is
settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.
Deferred tax, relating to items recognised outside the statement of profit or loss, is recognised directly either in other comprehensive income or in equity in correlation to the underlying transaction.
Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset if a legally enforceable right exists to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and the deferred tox relate to the same taxable entity and the some taxation authority.
D. Property, plant and equipment (PPE)
Items of property, plant and equipment ore stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. Costs directly attributable to acquisition are capitalized until the property, plant and equipment are ready for use, os intended by management.
Depreciation is calculated on cost of PPE less their estimated residual values over their estimated useful lives using straight line method and is recognized in Statement of Profit ond loss. The estimated useful lives of items of PPE are os follows:
The Company, based on assessment made, depreciates certain items of property, plant and equipment over estimated useful lives which ore
different from the useful life prescribed in Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013. The management believes that these estimated useful lives are realistic and reflect fair approximation of the period over which the assets are likely to be used.
An item of property, plant and equipment and any significant part initially recognised is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of the asset (calculated os the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in the income statement when the asset is derecognised. The cost ond related accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the financial statements upon sale or retirement of the asset and the resultant gains or losses are recognized in the statement of profit and loss. Assets to be disposed off are reported at the lower of the carrying value or the fair value less cost to sell.
The residual values, useful lives and methods of depreciation of property, plant and equipment are reviewed at each financial year end and adjusted prospectively, if appropriate.
E. Investment properties
Investment property comprises land or a building or part of a building or both that is held to earn rentals or for capital appreciation or both.
Property held under a lease is classified as investment property when it is held to earn rentals or for capital appreciation or both. It does not include property held use in the production or supply of goods or services or for administrative purposes, nor it includes property held for sale in the ordinary course of business.
More specifically, investment property includes land held for long-term capita! appreciation as well os land held for a currently undetermined future use. Investment property also includes (a) building owned by the Company and leased out under operating lease(s) and (b) a vacant building that is being held to be leased out under an operating lease (or leases)
Investment properties are measured initially at cost, including transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, investment properties are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment loss, if any.
The cost includes the cost of replacing parts and borrowing costs for long-term construction projects if the recognition criteria are met When significant parts of the investment property are required to be replaced at intervals, the Company depreciates them separately based on their specific useful lives. All other repair and maintenance costs ore recognised in profit or loss as incurred.
The Company depreciates building component of investment property over 60 years from the dote of original purchase. Furniture & fixture and office equipment, which form part of investment property are depreciated at useful life mentioned in pora D.
The Company depreciates building (on leasehold land) component of investment property over the leasehold period of land.
Investment properties are derecognised either when they have been disposed off or when they are permanently withdrawn from use and no future economic benefit is expected from their disposal. The difference between the net disposal
proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset is recognised in statement of profit and loss in the period of derecognition.
The residual values, useful lives and methods of depreciation of investment properties are reviewed at each financial year end and adjusted prospectively, if appropriate.
F. Intangible assets
Intangible assets (software) acquired separately are measured on initial recognition at cost. Following initial recognition, intangible assets are carried at cost less any accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses. Internally generated intangibles, excluding capitalized development costs, ore not capitalized and the related expenditure is reflected in profit or loss in the period in which the expenditure is incurred.
Software (inhouse Developed) product development costs are capitalized as incurred if technical and commercial feasibility of the project is demonstrated, future economic benefits are probable, the Company has an intention and ability to complete and use or sell the software and the costs can be measured reliably. The costs which can be capitalized include material cost, employee benefits and other overhead cost that are directly attributable to preparing the asset for its intended use.
Intangible assets are amortised over the useful economic life and assessed for impairment whenever there is an indication that the intangible asset may be impaired. The amortisation period and the amortisation method for an intangible asset ore reviewed at least at the end of each reporting period.
Changes in the expected useful life or the expected pattern of consumption of future economic benefits embodied in the asset are considered to modify the amortisation period or method, as appropriate, and are treated as changes in accounting estimates.
The amortisation expense on intangible assets is recognised in the statement of profit and loss.
Intangible assets are amortised using the Straight Line Method over their estimated useful lives as follows:
Gains or losses arising from Derecognition of an intangible asset are meosured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and are recognized in the statement of profit or loss when the asset is derecognised.
G. Investment in subsidiaries and associates
Investment in subsidiaries and associates are measured usually at cost. Subsequent to initial recognition, investment in subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures are stated at cost less impairment loss, if any.
Investment in subsidiaries and associates ore derecognized when they are sold or transferred. The difference between the net proceeds on sales and the carrying amount af the asset is recognized in statement of profit and loss in the year of derecognition.
H. Borrowing costs
Borrowing costs consist af interest and other costs that an entity incurs in connection with the borrowing of funds. Borrowing cost also includes exchange differences to the extent regarded as an adjustment to the borrowing costs. All borrowing costs ore expensed in the period In which they occur.
I. Leases
The Company assesses if a contract is or contains a lease at inception of the contract. A
contract is, or contains, a (ease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period time in exchange for consideration.
Company as a lessee
The Company recognises a right-of-use asset and a corresponding lease liability with respect to all lease arrangements in which it is the lessee, except for short-term leases (defined as leases with a lease term of 12 months or less). For these leases, the Company recognises the lease payments as an operating expense on a straight¬ line basis over the lease term, unless another systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern in which economic benefits from the leosed assets are consumed. Contingent and variable rentals are recognized as expense in the periods in which they are incurred.
Right - of - use Assets
The Company recognises right-of-use assets at the commencement date of the lease (i.e., the date the underlying asset is available for use). Right-of-use assets are measured at cost, less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, and adjusted for any remeasurement of lease liabilities. The cost of right-of-use assets includes the amount of lease liabilities recognised, initial direct costs incurred, and lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received. Right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease term and the estimated useful lives of the assets, as follows:
- Building 3 years
Lease Liabilities
At the commencement date of the lease, the Company recognises lease liabilities measured at the present value of lease payments to be made over the lease term.
In calculating the present value of lease payments, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate at the lease commencement date because the interest rate implicit in the lease is
not readily determinable. After the commencement date, the amount of lease liabilities is increased to reflect the accretion of Interest and reduced for the lease payments made. In addition, the carrying amount of lease liabilities is remeasured if there is a modification, a change in the lease term, a change in the lease payments (e.g., changes to future payments resulting from a change in an index or rate used to determine such lease payments) or a change in the assessment of an option to purchase the underlying asset.
J. Impairment of non-financial assets
Impairment loss, if any, is provided to the extent, the carrying amount of assets or cash generating units exceed their recoverable amount. Recoverable amount is higher of an asset's net selling price and its value in use. Value in use is the present value of estimated future cash flows expected to arise from the continuing use of an asset or cash generating unit and from its disposal at the end of its useful life. Impairment losses recognised in prior years are reversed when there is an indication that the impairment losses recognised no longer exist or have decreased. Such reversols are recognised as an increase in carrying amounts of assets to the extent that it does not exceed the carrying amounts that would have been determined (net of amortization or depreciation) had no impairment loss been recognised in previous years.
