or credit are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable
to timing difference that result between the profit offered for income
taxes and the profit as per the financial statements. Deferred tax in
respect of timing difference which originate during the tax holiday

timing differences which originate first are considered to reverse
first. The deferred tax charge or credit and the corresponding deferred
tax liabilities or assets are recognized using the tax rates that have
been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date.
Deferred tax assets are recognized only to the extent there is
reasonable certainty that the assets can be realized in future;
however, when there is a brought forward loss or unabsorbed
depreciation under taxation laws, deferred tax assets are recognized
only if there is virtual certainty of realization of such assets.
Deferred tax assets are reviewed as at each balance sheet date and
written down or written up to reflect the amount that is reasonably/
virtually certain to be realized.
Minimum Alternate Tax ('MAT') paid in accordance with the tax laws,
which gives rise to future economic benefits in the form of tax credit
against future income tax liability, is recognized as an asset in the
balance sheet if there is a convincing evidence that the Company will

can be measured reliably. MAT credit entitlement can be carried forward
and utilized for a period of ten years from the period in which such

and liabilities, where it has a legally enforceable right and where it
intends to settle such assets and liabilities on a net basis.

obligation or a present obligation that may, but probably will not,
require an outflow of resources. When there is a possible obligation or
a present obligation in respect of which the likelihood of outflow of
resources is remote, no provision or disclosure is made.
Provisions for onerous contracts, i.e. contracts where the expected
unavoidable costs of meeting the obligations under the contract exceed

benefits will be required to settle a present obligation as a result of

outstanding during the year.
q) Impairment of Assets
The Company assesses at each balance sheet date whether there is any
indication that an asset (including goodwill) may be impaired. If any
such indication exists, the Company estimates the recoverable amount of
the asset. For an asset that does not generate largely independent cash
inflows, the recoverable amount is determined for the cash-generating
unit to which the asset belongs. If such recoverable amount of the
asset or the recoverable amount of the cash generating unit to which
the asset belongs is less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount
is reduced to its recoverable amount. The reduction is treated as an
impairment loss and is recognized in the statement of profit and loss.
If at the balance sheet date there is an indication that if a
previously assessed impairment loss no longer exists, the recoverable
amount is reassessed and the asset is reflected at the recoverable
amount. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the
carrying amount of asset does not exceed the net book value that would
have been determined; if no impairment loss had been recognized. In
respect of goodwill, impairment loss will be reversed only when it is
caused by specific external events and their effects have been reversed
by subsequent external events.
