Examples of such estimates include provisions for doubtful debts, employee benefits, assessment of income taxes. The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Difference between actual results and estimates are recognized in the periods in which the results are known/materialised.

Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of individual assets, the Company estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. The recoverable amount is the greater of the net selling price and value in use. Value in use is arrived at by discounting the future cash flows to their present value based on an appropriate discount factor.

A qualifying asset is one that necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use or sale. All other borrowing costs are charged to revenue.

Tangible Fixed assets:

Fixed assets are recorded at cost of acquisition or constructions (including incidental expenses). They are stated at historical cost or amounts substituted on revaluation.

Fixed assets retired from active use and held for disposal are stated at lower of their book value and realizable value and shown separately under the current assets.

Intangible Assets and amortisation:

Intangible assets are recognised only if it is probable that future economic benefits that are attributable to the assets will flow to the enterprise and the cost of asset can be measured reliably. Intangible assets are stated at cost of acquisition less accumulated amortisation. Computer software is amortised over a period of 5 years.

Depreciation:

Depreciation on plant and machineries is provided on written down value basis and on all other fixed assets on straight line method basis at the rates and in the manner specified in Schedule XIV of the Companies Act, 1956, except for depreciation on building and plant and machineries taken over from the high court receiver on 28-03-2000, which has been provided on the value determined by the approved valuers for their residual useful life considering the requirements of schedule XIV of the Companies Act, 1956. Depreciation on assets retired from active use is provided up to the date of such retirement.

Employee benefits:

a) Defined Contribution Plan:

Companys Contribution paid/ payable for the year to Defined Contribution retirement benefit plan is charged to Profit and Loss account.

b) Defined Benefit Plan:

Companys liabilities towards Defined Benefit Schemes are determined using the Projected Unit Credit Method. Actuarial valuations under the Projected Unit Credit Method are carried.out at the Balance Sheet date. Actuarial gains and losses are recognised in the Profit and Loss account in the period of occurrence of such gains and losses. Past service cost is recognised immediately to the extent of benefits are vested, otherwise it is amortised on straight-line basis over the remaining average period until the benefits become vested.

c) Short - term employee benefits:

Short-term employee benefits expected to be paid in exchange for the services rendered by employees are recognised undiscounted during the period employee renders services. These benefits include annual bonus or exgratia.

Foreign currency transactions:

Transactions in foreign currencies are recognised at the prevailing exchange rates on the transaction date. Realised gains and losses on settlement of foreign currency transactions are recognised in the Profit and Loss Account.

Monetary items denominated in foreign currency are restated using the exchange rates prevailing at the date of the Balance Sheet, and the resulting net exchange difference is recognized in the Profit and Loss Account. In case of monetary items which are covered by forward contracts, the difference between the year end rate and the rate on the date of the contract is recognized as an exchange difference and the premium/ discount paid on such forward contracts has been recognised as income/ expense over the life of the contract.

Revenue recognition:

Revenue on sale of products is recognized when the products are dispatched to the customers, all significant contractual obligations have been satisfied and the collection of the resulting receivables is reasonably expected.

Income taxes:

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the tax rates which have been enacted or substantively enacted at the Balance Sheet date. Deferred tax expense or benefit is recognized, subject to consideration of prudence, on timing differences being the difference between taxable jncome and accounting income that originate in one period and are capable of reversing in one or more subsequent periods.

Deferred tax assets are recognized for all deductible timing differences and are carried forward to the extent there is reasonable certainty that sufficient taxable profit will be available to realize these assets. In the event of unabsorbed depreciation and carry forward of losses, deferred tax assets are recognized only to the extent that, there is a virtual certainty that sufficient taxable income will be available to realize these assets. At each Balance Sheet date, the Company reassesses unrecognized deferred tax assets to the extent they become reasonably certain or virtually certain or realization as the case may be.

Impairment of Assets:

An asset is treated as impaired when the carrying cost of assets exceeds its recoverable value. An impairment loss is charged to the Profit and Loss Account in the year in which an asset is identified as impaired. The impairment loss recognised in prior accounting periods is reversed if there has been a change in the estimate of recoverable amount.

Operating Leases:

Assets taken on lease under which all risks and rewards of ownership are effectively retained by the lessor are classified as operating lease. Lease payments under operating leases are recognised as expenses on accrual basis in accordance with the respective lease agreements.

Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets:

Provisions involving substantial degree of estimation in measurement are recognised when there is a present obligation as a result of past events and it is probable that there will be an outflow of resources. Contingent liabilities are not recognised but are disclosed in the notes. Contingent Assets are neither recognised in the financial statements nor disclosed in the financial statements.
