Basic Earnings per share are calculated by dividing the net profit or loss for the period attributable to equity
shareholders (after deducting preference dividends and attributable taxes, if any) by the weighted average number
of equity shares outstanding during the period. The weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during
the period is adjusted for events such as bonus issue, bonus element in a rights issue, share split, and reverse
share split (consolidation of shares) that have changed the number of equity shares outstanding, without a
corresponding change in resources.
For the purpose of calculating diluted earnings per share, the net profit or loss for the period attributable to equity
shareholders and the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period are adjusted for the

NOTES ON ACCOUNTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST MARCH, 2015

k) Borrowing Costs
Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets are capitalised
as part of the cost of the assets.
Other borrowing costs are recognised as expense as and when incurred.
l) Provisions
A Provision is recognized when the company has a present obligation as a result of past event, 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 of the amount of the obligation. Provisions are not discounted to their present value and
determined based on the best estimate required to settle the obligation at the reporting date. These estimate are
reviews at each reporting date and adjusted to reflect the current best estimates.
Where the company expects some or all provision to be reimbursed, for example under an insurance contract, the
reimbursement is recognised as a separate asset but only when the reimbursement is virtually certain. The expense
relating to any provision is presented in the statement of profit and loss net of any reimbursement
m) Contingent liabilities
A Contingent liability is a possible obligation that arises from past events whose existence will be confirmed by the
occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events beyond the control of the company or a
present obligation that is not recognized because it is not probable that an outflow of resources will be required
to settle the obligation. A contingent liability also arises in extremely rare cases where there is a liability that
cannot be recognized because it cannot be measured reliably. The company does not recognize a contingent
liability but discloses its existence in the financial statements.
Contingent Assets are neither recognised nor disclosed.
