5. Depreciation and amortization
The depreciable amount for assets is the cost of an asset or other amount substituted for cost, less its estimated residual value. Depreciation on tangible fixed assets has been provided on the Written Down Value (WDV) method as per the useful life prescribed in Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013.
6. Revenue Recognition
^ Revenue is recognized to the extent it is possible that economic benefits will flow to the company and the revenue can be reliably measured and there is reasonable certainty regarding ultimate collection.

Expenditure on addition, improvements and renewals are capitalized and expenditure for maintenance and repair is charged to Profit and Loss account.
8. Earnings per Share
Basic Earnings per Share is calculated by dividing the net profit after tax for the year attributable to Equity Shareholders of the Company.

9. Taxes on Income
Tax expenses comprise of current and deferred tax
Current tax is measured at the amount expected to be paid on the basis of relief and deductions available in accordance to the provisions of 115BAA of the Income Tax Act, 1961 w.e.f. FY 2019-20. The company has an irrevocable option of shifting to lower tax rates along with the consequent reduction in certain tax incentives including lapse of accumulated MAT Credit.
Deferred income tax reflects the impact of the current year's reversible timing differences between the taxable income and accounting income for the Year and the reversal of timing differences of the earlier Year. Deferred tax is measured based on the tax rates and tax laws enacted or substantively enacted as at the balance sheet date. Deferred tax assets are recognized only to the extent there is virtual certainty that sufficient future taxable income will be available against which such deferred tax assets can be realized.
10. Impairment of Assets
An Asset is considered as impaired in accordance with AS -28 "Impairment of Assets" when at the balance sheet date there are indications of impairment and the carrying amount of the asset, or where applicable the cash-generating unit to which the assets belong, exceeds its recoverable amount (i.e., the higher of the assets net selling price and value in use). In assessing the value in use, the estimated future cash flows expected from the continuing use of the asset and from its ultimate disposal are discounted to their present values using a predetermined discount rate. The carrying amount is reduced to the recoverable amount and the reduction is recognized as an impairment loss in the profit and loss account.
