Use of Estimates:

Although these estimates are based on the management's best knowledge of current events and actions, uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in the outcomes requiring a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities in future periods.
b) Property, Plant and Equipment
Property, Plant and Equipment are stated at cost (or revalued amounts, as the case may be) less accumulated depreciation/amortization and impairment losses, if any.
Cost includes purchase price, taxes and duties as applicable, freight, and other incidental expenses incurred till the commencement of commercial production. Incidental expenses include establishment expenses, interest on borrowed funds used for qualifying assets and other related direct costs attributable to the same.

c) Intangible Assets
Intangible assets are stated at original cost net of tax/duty credits availed, if any, less accumulated amortization and cumulative impairment.

Intangible assets are amortized over their useful life.
d) Depreciation on Property, Plant and Equipment
Depreciation on Property, Plant and Equipment is calculated on a WDV basis using the rates arrived at based on the useful lives of fixed assets specified by Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013.
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) Impairment
The carrying amounts of assets are reviewed at each balance sheet date, to check if there is any indication of impairment based on internal/external factors.
An impairment loss is recognized wherever the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount.
The recoverable amount is the greater of the asset's net selling price and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and risks specific to the asset.

i) Finance lease:
Assets acquired under finance leases are recognized as an asset and a liability at the commencement of the lease, at the lower of the fair value of the assets and the present value of minimum lease payments.

For the purpose of calculating diluted earnings per shares, the net profit or loss for the year attributable to equity shareholders and the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year are adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potential equity shares.
