2.15 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets Provisions

Provisions are recognised when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, and it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate can be made ofthe amount ofthe obligation.

When theeffectofthetimevalueofmoneyis material,theCompanydetermines the level of provision by discounting theexpectedfuture cash flows to net present value using an appropriate pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and, where appropriate, the risks specific to the liability.

Contingent Assets / Liabilities

A contingent liability is a present obligation that arises from past events, where it is either not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle or a reliable estimate ofthe amount cannot be made. A contingent liability is disclosed. Contingent liabilities are also disclosed when there is a possible obligation arising from past events, the existence of which will be confirmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence ofoneormore uncertainfutureevents not wholly within thecontrol oftheCompany.

Claims against the Company, where the possibility of any outflow of resources in settlement is remote, are not disclosed as contingent liabilities.

Contingent assets are not recognised in the Standalone Financial Statements since this may result in the recognition of income that may never be realised. A Contingent asset is disclosed where an inflow ofeconomic benefits is probable.

Level 2 hierarchy includes financial instruments that are not traded in active market.This includes OTC derivatives and debt instruments valued using observable market data such as yield etc. of similar instruments traded in active market. All derivatives are reported at discounted values henceare included in level 2. Borrowings have been fair valued using market rate prevailing ason the reporting date.

iii. Valuation techniques used for valuation of instruments categorized as level 3.

Forvaluation ofinvestments in equitysharesand associates which are unquoted, peercomparison has been performed whereveravailable. Valuation has been primarily done based on the cost approach wherein the net worth of the Company is considered and price to book multiple is used to arrive at the fair value. In cases where income approach was feasible valuation has been arrived using the earnings capitalization method. For inputs that are not observable for these instruments, certain assumptions are made based on available information. The most significant of these assumptions are the discount rate and credit spreads used in the valuation process. Forvaluation of investments in debt securities categorized as level 3, market polls which represent indicativeyields are used as assumptions by market participants when pricingtheasset.

Classification of financial assets under various stages

The Company classifies its financial assets in three stages having the following characteristics

Stage 1: unimpaired and without significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition on which a 12-months allowance for ECL is recognized;

Stage 2: a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition on which a lifetime ECL is recognized; and

Stage 3: objective evidence of impairment and are therefore considered to be in default or otherwise credit impaired on which a lifetime ECL is recognized.

Unless identified at an earlier stage, all financial assets are deemed to have suffered a significant increase in credit risk when they are 30 days past due (DPD) or one installment overdue on the reporting date and are accordingly transferred from stage 1 to stage 2. For stage lanECL allowance is calculated based on a 12-months Point in Time (PIT) probability weighted probability of default (PD). For stage 2 and 3 assets a life time ECL is calculated based on a lifetime PD.

The Company has calculated ECL using three main components: PD, LGD (loss given default) and EAD (exposure at default) along with an adjustment considering forward macro-economic conditions.
