affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities, and die accompanying disclosures, and die disclosure
of contingent liabilities. Uncertainty about tiiese assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that require a material
adjustment to the carrying amount of assets or liabilities affected in future periods.

25.1

Judgments

The Dm sion has opted for carrying cost as the deemed cost as on the date of transition

25.1.ii Depreciation/Amortization of and impairment loss on property Plant and equipment/Intangible Assets

Property, Plant and equipment are depreciated and intangible assets are amortized on straight line basis over the estimated useful
fives (or Lease Term of Shorter) in accordance with schedule II of the company’s act 2013, taking into account the estimated
residual value, wherever applicable. The company review''s the estimated useful fives of the assets regularly in order to determine
the amount of depreciation/ amortization expense to be recorded during any recording period. Tins reassessment may result in
change in depreciation expense in future periods. The company lias opted out from fair market valuation method for all of its
fixed assets.

The Company review''s it carrying value of its tangible and intangible assets whenever there is objective evidence that the assets
are impaired. The required level of impairment losses to be made is estimated by reference to the estimated value in use or
recoverable amount

25.1.ni Impairment loss on trade receivables:

The Company evaluated whether there is any objective evidence that trade receivable is impaired and determines the amount of
impairment loss as a result of die inability of the debtors to make requir ed payments. The Company bases the estimates on the
ageing of the trade receivable balances, cieditworthmess ot the trade receivables and historical written on exjieneuce. It the
financial conditions of the ti ade receivables were to deteriorate, actual write-offs would be higher than estimated

25.2 Estimates and assumptions

The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date, that har e a
significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year,
are described below. The Company based its assumptions and estimates on parameters available when the financial statements
were prepared. Existing circumstances and assumptions about future developments, however, may change due to market changes
or circumstances arising that are beyond the control of the Company. Such changes are reflected in the assumptions when they
occur.

25.2. L Defined benefits plans (gratuity benefits)

The cost of the defined benefit gratuity plan and the present value of the gratuity obligation are determined using actuarial
valuations. An actuarial valuation involves making various assumptions that may differ from actual developments in the future.
These include the determination of the discount rate; future salary increases and mortality rates. Due to the complexities involved
in the valuation and its long-term nature, a defined benefits obligation is highly sensitive to changes in these assumptions are
reviewed at each reporting date.

The parameter most subject to change is the discount rate in determining the appropriate discount rate for plans oper ated in India,
the management considers file interest rates of government bonds in currencies consistent with the currencies of the post¬
employment benefit obligation.

The mortality rate is based on publicly available mortality tables for the specific countries. Those mortality tables tend to change
only at interval in response to demographic changes. Future salary increases are based on expected future inflations rates.

25.2. ii. Fair value measurement of financial instruments

When the fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities recorded in die balance sheet cannot be measured based on quoted
prices in active market, ther e fair'' value measured using various valuation techniques. The input s to these models is taken from
observable markets where possible, but where this is not feasible, a degr ee of judgment is required in establishing fur values.

affect the reported fair value of financial instruments.
