16. PROVISIONS, CONTINGENT ASSETS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES
16.1 Provisions are recognized when the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events, it is
probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation and the amount can be reliably estimated.
Provisions are not recognized for future operating losses.
16.2 Where there are a number of similar obligations, the likelihood that an outflow will be required in settlement is determined
by considering the class of obligations as a whole. A provision is recognized even if the likelihood of an outflow with respect
to any one item included in the same class of obligations may be small.
16.3 Provisions are measured at the present value of the management’s best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the
present obligation at the end of the reporting period. The discount rate used to determine the present value is a pre-tax
rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability. The increase
in the provisions due to the passage of time is recognized as interest expense.
16.4 Warranty: Warranty on goods sold, wherever applicable, commences once the sale is complete and accordingly provision
for such warranty is made. The period, terms and conditions of warranty as per the relevant contract are taken into
consideration while determining the provision for such sales.
16.5 Provision for Onerous Contract:A provision for onerous contracts is recognised when the expected benefits to be derived
by the Company from a contract are lower than the unavoidable cost of meeting its obligations under the contract. The
provision is measured at the present value of the lower of the expected cost of terminating the contract and the expected
net cost of continuing with the contract. Before a provision is established, the Company recognizes any impairment loss on
the assets associated with that contract.
17. EMPLOYEE BENEFITS
17.1 Short-term obligations
Liabilities for wages and salaries, including other monetary and non-monetary benefits that are expected to be settled
wholly within 12 months after the end of the period in which the employees render the related service are recognized in
respect of employees’ services up to the end of the reporting period and are measured at the amounts expected to be paid
when the liabilities are settled. The liabilities are presented as current employee benefit obligations in the balance sheet.
17.2 Other long term employee benefit obligations
The liability for vacation leave is not expected to be settled wholly within 12 months after the end of the period in which
the employees render the related service. They are therefore measured as the present value of expected future payments
to be made in respect of services provided by employees up to the end of the reporting period using the projected unit
credit method. The benefits are discounted using the market yields at the end of the reporting period that have terms
approximating to the terms of the related obligation. Re-measurements as a result of experience adjustments and changes
in actuarial assumptions are recognised in profit or loss.
The obligations are presented as current liabilities in the balance sheet if the entity does not have an unconditional right to
defer settlement for at least twelve months after the reporting period, regardless of when the actual settlement is expected
to occur.
17.3 Post-employment obligations
The Company operates the following post-employment schemes:
(a) Defined benefit plans such as Gratuity and contribution towards Provident Fund under the PF Act; and
(b) Defined contribution plans namely Retired Employee Medical Scheme (REMI)/Post Superannuation Medical Benefit
(PSMB), Death Relief Fund (DRF), Employee State Insurance Scheme (ESI) and Pension Scheme(s).
a) Defined benefit plans
The liability or assets recognized in the balance sheet in respect of defined benefit plans is the present value of
the defined benefit obligations at the end of the reporting period less the fair value of plan assets. The defined
benefit obligation is calculated annually by actuaries using the projected unit credit method.
The present value of the defined benefit obligation denominated in INR is determined by discounting the
estimated future cash outflows by reference to market yields at the end of the reporting period on government
bonds that have terms approximating to the terms of the related obligation.
The net interest cost is calculated by applying the discount rate to the net balance of the defined benefit obligation
and the fair value of plan assets. This cost is included in employee benefit expense in the statement of profit and
loss.
Re-measurement gains and losses arising from experience adjustments and change in actuarial assumptions are
recognized in the period in which they occur, directly in other comprehensive income.
Changes in the present value of the defined benefit obligation resulting from plan amendments or curtailments
are recognized immediately in profit or loss as past service cost.
b) Defined contribution plans
The Company pays contributions to trusts established as per local regulations and also to publicly administered
funds as per local regulations. The Company has no further payment obligations once the contributions have
been paid. The contributions are accounted for as defined contribution plans and the contributions are recognized
as employee benefit expense when they are due. Prepaid contributions are recognized as an asset to the extent
that a cash refund or a reduction in the future payments is available.
The Company’s contribution paid/ payable to Company approved Retired Employee Medical Scheme (REMI)/
Post superannuation Medical Benefit(PSMB), Death Relief Fund (DRF), Employee State Insurance Scheme (ESI)
and Pension Scheme are charged to revenue.
17.4 Termination Benefits
Termination benefits are payable when employment is terminated by the Company before the normal retirement date, or
when an employee accepts voluntary redundancy in exchange for these benefits. The Company recognizes termination
benefits at the earlier of the following dates: (a) when the Company can no longer withdraw the offer of those benefits;
and (b) when the entity recognizes costs for a restructuring that is within the scope of Ind AS 37 and involves the payment
of termination benefits. In the case of an offer made to encourage voluntary redundancy, the termination benefit are
measured based on the number of employees expected to accept the offer. Termination Benefits falling due more than 12
months after the end of the reporting period are discounted to present value.
Compensation paid to Employees under Voluntary Retirement Scheme (VRS) is charged to Statement of Profit and Loss in
the year of retirement.
18. CONTRIBUTED EQUITY
Equity shares are classified as equity.
Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from
the proceeds.
19. DIVIDENDS
Provision is made for the amount of any dividend declared, being appropriately authorized and no longer at the discretion of the
entity, on or before the end of the reporting period but not distributed at the end of the reporting period.
20. EARNINGS PER SHARE
20.1 Basic earnings per share
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing:
The profit attributable to owners of the Company by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the
financial year, adjusted for bonus elements in equity shares issued during the year and excluding treasury shares
20.2 Diluted earnings per share
Diluted earnings per share adjusts the figures used in the determination of basic earnings per share to take into account:
• The after income tax effect of interest and other financing costs associated with dilutive potential equity shares, and
• The weighted average number of additional equity shares that would have been outstanding assuming the conversion
of all dilutive potential equity shares.
