(s) Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets
Provisions are recognised only when:
(i) the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event; and
(ii) it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation; and
(iii) a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.
Provision is measured using the cash flows estimated to settle the present obligation and when the effect of time value of money is material, the carrying amount of the provision is the present value of those cash flows. Reimbursement expected in respect of expenditure required to settle a provision is recognised only when it is virtually certain that the reimbursement will be received.
Contingent liability is disclosed in case of:
(i) a present obligation arising from past events, when it is not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation; and
(ii) a present obligation arising from past events, when no reliable estimate is possible. Contingent assets are disclosed where an inflow of economic benefits is probable. Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets are reviewed at each Balance Sheet date. Where the unavoidable costs of meeting the obligations under the contract exceed the economic benefits expected to be received under such contract, the present obligation under the contract is recognised and measured as a provision.
(t) Commitments
Commitments are future liabilities for contractual expenditure, classified and disclosed as follows:
(i) estimated amount of contracts remaining to be executed on capital account and not provided for;
(ii) uncalled liability on shares and other investments partly paid;

Non-current assets and disposal groups classified as held for sale are measured at lower of their carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell.
(v) Statement of Cash Flows
Statement of Cash Flows is prepared segregating the cash flows into operating, investing and financing activities. Cash flow from operating activities is reported using indirect method, adjusting the profit before tax excluding exceptional items for the effects of:
(i) changes during the period in inventories and operating receivables and payables;
(ii) non-cash items such as depreciation, provisions, unrealised foreign currency gains and losses; and

affect the reported amounts of income and expenses of the period, the reported balances of assets and liabilities and the disclosures relating to contingent liabilities as of the date of the Standalone Financial Statements.

3 Recent pronouncements:
On March 31, 2023, Ministry of Corporate Affairs amended the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 by issuing the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Amendment Rules, 2023, which becomes effective from April 1, 2023. The gist of the amendments is as follows:
• Ind AS 1, Presentation of Standalone Financial Statements - It is specified when the accounting policy information is material, and the requirement to disclose significant accounting policies is substituted with the disclosure of material accounting policy information.
• Ind AS 8, Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors - The definition of "change in accounting estimate" is substituted with the definition of "accounting estimates". Accounting estimates are monetary amounts in Standalone Financial Statements that are subject to measurement uncertainty.
