taxable income will be available against which such deferred tax assets
can be realised. If there is unabsorbed depreciation or carry forward

evidence that sufficient future taxable income will be available
against which such deferred tax assets can be realised.

holiday period is recognised in the year in which the timing
differences originate using the tax rates and laws enacted or
substantively enacted at the balance sheet date. At each balance sheet
date, the company reassesses unrecognised deferred tax assets. It

sufficient taxable income will be available against which the deferred
tax can be realised.

the Company will pay income tax higher than MAT during the specified
