Deferred tax reflects the impact of timing differences between taxable income and accounting income for the current reporting year and reversal of timing differences of earlier years.

Deferred tax is measured based on the tax rates and the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the Balance Sheet date. Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset, if a legally enforceable right exists to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities. The deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities relate to the taxes on income levied by the same governing taxation laws. Deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that there is reasonable certainty that sufficient future taxable income will be available against which such deferred tax assets can be realised. In situations where the Company has unabsorbed depreciation or carry forward tax losses, all deferred tax assets are recognised only if there is virtual certainty supported by convincing evidence that they can be realised against future taxable profits.

At each Balance Sheet date, the Company re-assesses unrecognised deferred tax assets. It recognises unrecognised deferred tax assets to the extent that it has become reasonably certain or virtually certain, as the case may be, that sufficient future taxable income will be available against which such deferred tax assets can be realised.

MAT credit is recognised as an asset only when and to the extent there is convincing evidence that the Company will pay normal income tax during the specified period. In the year in which the MAT credit becomes eligible to be recognised as an asset in accordance with the recommendations contained in guidance note issued by The Institute of Chartered Accountants of India, the said asset is created by way of a credit to the Statement of Profit and Loss and shown as MAT Credit Entitlement.

Presentation and disclosure in Financial Statements

From the year ended 31st March, 2012, the revised Schedule VI notified under the Companies Act, 1956 has become applicable to the Company for preparation and presentation of its financial statements. Except accounting for dividend on investment in subsidiary, the adoption of new Schedule VI does not impact recognition and measurement principles followed for preparation of financial statements. However, it has significant impact on presentation and disclosures made in the financial statements.

Operating Cycle

As per the revised Schedule VI, "An operating cycle is the time between the acquisition of assets for processing and their realisation in cash or cash equivalents".

For the Company, there is generally no clearly identifiable normal operating cycle and hence the normal operating cycle for the Company is assumed to have a duration of 12 months.

Current and Non-Current Asset

An asset is classified as ''current'' when it satisfies any of the following criteria:

- it is expected to be realised in, or is intended for sale or consumption in, the Company''s normal operating cycle; or

- it is held primarily for the purpose of being traded; or

- it is expected to be realised within twelve months after the reporting date; or

- it is cash or cash equivalent unless it is restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months after the reporting date.

Current and Non-Current Liability

A liability is classified as ''current'' when it satisfies any of the following criteria:

- it is expected to be settled in the Company''s normal operating cycles; or

- it is held primarily for the purpose of being traded; or

- the Company does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting date.

All other liabilities are classified as ''non-current''.

1.2 Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements requires the management to make estimates and assumptions which are considered to arrive at the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities as on the date of the financial statements and the reported income and expenses during the reporting year. Although these estimates are based upon the management''s best knowledge of current events and actions, actual results could differ from these estimates. The difference between the actual results and the estimates are recognised in the periods in which the results are known / materialised. Any revision to the accounting estimates are recognised prospectively in the current and future years.

1.3 Fixed Assets, Depreciation / Amortisation and Impairment

i) Fixed Assets

Tangible fixed assets are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation / amortisation and impairment losses, if any. Cost comprises of the purchase price and any directly attributable cost of bringing the asset to its working condition for its intended use. Borrowing costs relating to acquisition of fixed assets, which take substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use, are also capitalised to the extent they relate to the period till such assets are ready to put to use.

Intangible Assets comprising of computer software and licenses expected to provide future enduring economic benefits are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and impairment losses, if any.

The carrying amount of assets is reviewed at each Balance Sheet date to determine if there is any indication of impairment, based on internal / external factors. An impairment loss is recognised wherever the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount.

After impairment, depreciation is provided on the revised carrying amount of the asset over its remaining useful life.

A previously recognised impairment loss is increased or reversed depending on changes in circumstances. However, the carrying value after reversal is not increased beyond the carrying value that would have prevailed by charging usual depreciation, if there was no impairment.

After impairment, depreciation is provided on the revised carrying amount of the asset over its remaining useful life.

A previously recognised impairment loss is increased or reversed depending on changes in circumstances. However, the carrying value after reversal is not increased beyond the carrying value that would have prevailed by charging usual depreciation if there was no impairment.

Deferred tax is measured based on the tax rates and the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date. Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset, if a legally enforceable right exists to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities. The deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities relate to the taxes on income levied by the same governing taxation laws. Deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that there is reasonable certainty that sufficient future taxable income will be available against which such deferred tax assets can be realised.

At each balance sheet date, the Company re-assesses unrecognised deferred tax assets. It recognises unrecognised deferred tax assets to the extent that it has become reasonably certain or virtually certain, as the case may be, that sufficient future taxable income will be available against which such deferred tax assets can be realised.

MAT credit is recognised as an asset only when and to the extent there is convincing evidence that the company will pay normal income tax during the specified period. In the year in which the MAT credit becomes eligible to be recognised as an asset in accordance with the recommendations contained in guidance note issued by The Institute of Chartered Accountants of India, the said asset is created by way of a credit to the profit and loss account and shown as MAT Credit Entitlement.

These are reviewed at each balance sheet date and adjusted to reflect the current best estimates. Contingent Liabilities are not recognised but are disclosed in the notes. Contingent Assets are neither recognised nor disclosed in the financial statements.
