Notes to the Financial Statements

For the Year Ended 31 March, 2021 cont’d

The defined benefit plan defines an amount of gratuity the employee will receive on retirement, dependent on
date of employment, year of service and compensation. The defined benefit plan is being accounted for using the
projected unit method that considers the rate of inflation, the degree of salary increases of employees, the
retirement age among other factors.

The liability recognized in the balance sheet in respect of defined benefit pension plan is the present value of

the defined benefit obligation at the end of the reporting period less the fair value of plan assets, together with

adjustments for unrecognized past service costs. The defined benefit obligation is calculated annually by

independent actuaries using the projected unit credit method. The present value of the defined benefit obligation
is determined by discounting the estimated future cash out flow using market rates on Government Bonds.
Actuarial gains and losses arising from experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions are charged
or credited to other comprehensive income in the period in which they arise. Past service costs are recognized
immediately in income statement.

The company's defined benefit plan was discontinued and the balance was fully paid out during the year. See note
13.

ii. Defined Contribution Plans
The Company operates a defined contribution plan which is funded by contributions from the Company and the
employees. The Company's contribution is recognized as employee benefit expenses and charged to the income
statement. The contributions of both the company and the employees are paid on a monthly basis to a Pension
Fund Administrator. The Company has no legal or constructive obligation to pay further contributions if the Pension
Fund Administrator does not hold sufficient assets to pay all employees the benefits relating to employee service
in the current and prior periods. The contributions are recognized as employee benefit expenses when they are
due.

iii. Short-term Benefit

Short-term employee benefit obligations are measured on an undiscounted basis and are expensed as the
related service is provided.

A liability is recognized for the amount expected to be paid under short-term cash bonus or profit-sharing plan
if the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation to pay this amount as a result of past services provided
by the employee, and the obligation can be estimated reliably.

3.16 Provisions and Contingencies

Provisions are recognized when the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of a
past event, and it is probable that the Company will be required to settle that obligation and the amount has been
reliably estimated. Provisions for restructuring costs are recognized when the Company has a detailed formal plan
for the restructuring that has been communicated to affected parties. Provisions are not recognized for future
operating losses.

Provisions are measured at the present value of the expenditures expected to be acquired to settle the
obligation using a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and risks
specific to the obligation. The increase in the provision due to passage of time is recognized as interest expense.

3.17 Revenue Recognition

Revenue comprises the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for the sale of goods and services
in the ordinary course of the Company's activities. Revenue is shown net of value-added tax, returns, rebates and
