2. Material Accounting Policies Statement of Compliance
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS), the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013 ("the Companies Act"), as applicable and guidelines issued by the Securities and Exchange Board of India ("SEBI"). The Ind AS are prescribed under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 read with Rule3 of the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015and as amended.
The Company has adopted Ind AS from 1st April, 2017.
Accounting policies have been applied consistently to all periods presented in these financial statements, except for new accounting standards adopted by the Company.
Basis of Preparation
The financial statements are prepared in accordance with the historical cost convention, except for certain items that are measured at fair values, as explained in the accounting policies.
Fair Value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date, regardless of whether that price is directly observable or estimated using another valuation technique. In estimating the fair value of an asset or a liability, the Company takes into account the characteristics of the asset or liability.
Operating Cycle
All assets and liabilities have been classified as current or non-current as per the Company''s normal operating cycle and other criteria set out in the Schedule III to the Companies Act, 2013 and Ind AS 1 - Presentation of Financial Statements based on the nature of products and the time between the acquisition of assets for processing and their realisation in cash and cash equivalents. The Company has identified twelve months as its operating cycle.
Property, Plant and Equipment
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost of acquisition or construction less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment, if any. For this purpose, cost includes deemed cost which represents the carrying value of property, plant and equipment recognised as at 1st April, 2016 measured as per the previous GAAP.
The cost of PPE includes the purchase price (net of any trade discounts and rebates), import duties and other nonrefundable taxes, inward freight, and any directly attributable costs of bringing the asset to its working condition for its intended use. Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition or construction of qualifying assets are capitalised in accordance with Ind AS 23 - Borrowing Costs, if any. All upgradation / enhancements is charged off as revenue expenditure unless they bring similar significant additional benefits.
An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of asset. Any gain or loss arising on the disposal or retirement of an item of property, plant and equipment is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss. Depreciation of these assets commences when the assets are ready for their intended use which is generally on commissioning. Items of property, plant and equipment are depreciated in a manner that amortizes the cost (or other amount substituted for cost) of the assets after commissioning, less its residual value, over their useful lives as Specified in Schedule II of the Companies Act, 2013 on a straight-line basis. Land is not depreciated.

Intangible Assets
Intangible Assets that the Company controls and from which it expects future economic benefits are capitalised upon acquisition and measured initially at cost comprising the purchase price (including import duties and nonrefundable taxes) and directly attributable costs to prepare the asset for its intended use.
The carrying value of intangible assets includes deemed cost which represents the carrying value of intangible assets recognised as at 1st April, 2016 measured as per the previous GAAP.
The useful life of an intangible asset is considered finite due to the likelihood of technical, technological obsolescence (e.g., computer software, design, prototypes). Hence Intangible assets that have finite lives are amortized over their estimated useful lives by the straight-line method unless it is practical to reliably determine the pattern of benefits arising from the asset.
All intangible assets are tested for impairment. Amortization expenses and impairment losses and reversal of impairment losses are taken to the Statement of Profit and Loss. Thus, after initial recognition, an intangible asset is carried at its cost less accumulated amortization and / or impairment losses.
The useful lives of intangible assets are reviewed annually to determine if a reset of such useful life is required for assets with finite lives.

Impairment of Assets
Impairment loss, if any, is provided to the extent, the carrying amount of assets or cash generating units exceed their recoverable amount. Recoverable amount is higher of an asset''s fair value less cost to sale and its value in use. Value in use is the present value of estimated future cash flows expected to arise from the continuing use of an asset or cash generating unit and from its disposal at the end of its useful life. Impairment losses recognised in prior years are reversed when there is an indication that the impairment losses recognised no longer exist or have decreased. Such reversals are recognised as an increase in carrying amounts of assets to the extent that it does not exceed the carrying amounts that would have been determined (net of amortization or depreciation) had no impairment loss been recognised in previous years.
Inventories
Inventories comprise the followings:
a) Raw Materials: At lower of weighted average cost or net realisable value.
b) Work in progress: At lower of cost or net realisable value.
c) Finished Goods and Stock in trade: At lower of cost or net realisable value.
d) Stores and Spares, Packing: At lower of Weighted average cost or net realisable value
Foreign Currency Transactions
The financial statements of the Company are presented in Indian Rupee ("^"), which is the functional currency of the Company and the presentation currency for the financial statements.
In preparing the financial statements, transactions in currencies other than the entity''s functional currency are recorded at the rates of exchange prevailing on the date of the transaction. At the end of each reporting period, monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are re-translated at the rates prevailing at the end of the reporting period. Monetary items carried at fair value that are denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing on the date when the fair value was determined. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are not translated.
Exchange differences arising on the re-translation or settlement of other monetary items are included in the statement of profit and loss for the period.
Investment in Subsidiaries, Associates and Joint Ventures
Investment in subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures are carried at cost less accumulated impairment, if any.
Financial instruments, Financial assets, Financial liabilities and Equity instruments
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the relevant instrument and are initially measured at fair value except for trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component, which are measured at transaction price.
Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities (other than financial assets and financial liabilities measured at fair value through profit or loss) are added to or deducted from the fair value on initial recognition of financial assets or financial liabilities. Purchase or sale of financial assets that require delivery of assets within a time frame established by regulation or convention in the market place (regular way trades) are recognised on the trade date, i.e., the date when the company commits to purchase or sell the asset.
Financial Assets
Recognition: Financial assets include Investments, Trade receivables, Cash and cash equivalents, other balances with bank and loans. Such assets are initially recognised at transaction price when the Company becomes party to contractual obligations. The transaction price includes transaction costs unless the asset is being fair valued through the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Classification: Management determines the classification of an asset at initial recognition depending on the purpose for which the assets were acquired. The subsequent measurement of financial assets depends on such classification.
Financial assets are classified as those measured at:
(a) Amortised cost, where the financial assets are held solely for collection of cash flows arising from payments of principal and/ or interest.
(b) Fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI), where the financial assets are held not only for collection of cash flows arising from payments of principal and interest but also from the sale of such
assets. Such assets are subsequently measured at fair value, with unrealised gains and losses arising from changes in the fair value being recognised in other comprehensive income.
(c) Fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL), where the assets are managed in accordance with an approved investment strategy that triggers purchase and sale decisions based on the fair value of such assets. Such assets are subsequently measured at fair value, with unrealised gains and losses arising from changes in the fair value being recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss in the period in which they arise.
Trade receivables, Cash and cash equivalents etc. are classified for measurement at amortised cost while investments may fall under any of the aforesaid classes. However, in respect of particular investments in equity instruments that would otherwise be measured at fair value through profit or loss, an irrevocable election at initial recognition may be made to present subsequent changes in fair value through other comprehensive income.
Impairment: The Company assesses at each reporting date whether a financial asset (or a group of financial assets) such as trade receivables, held at amortised cost and financial assets that are measured at fair value through other ^comprehensive income are tested for impairment based on evidence or information that is available without undue cost or effort. Expected credit losses are assessed and loss allowances recognised if the credit quality of the financial asset has deteriorated significantly since initial recognition.
Financial Liabilities
Borrowings, trade payables and other financial liabilities are initially recognised at the value of the respective contractual obligations. They are subsequently measured at amortised cost. Financial liabilities are derecognised when the liability is extinguished, that is, when the contractual obligation is discharged, cancelled and on expiry.
Revenue
Revenue is measured at the transaction price that the Company receives or expects to receive as consideration for goods supplied and services rendered, net of returns and estimates of variable consideration such as discounts to customers.
Revenue from the sale of goods includes Excise and other duties which the Company pays as a principal, but excludes amounts collected on behalf of third parties, such as Goods and service tax. Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised when the company performs its obligations to its customers, which is mainly upon delivery, the amount of revenue can be measured reliably and recovery of the consideration is probable.
Revenue from services is recognised in the periods in which the services are rendered to the customer except otherwise stated.
Rental Income (exclusive of Taxes) from assets given on licence fee/rent is recognised on rendering of services to tenants/Licensee.
Interest income is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss using the effective interest method.
Employee Benefits
a) Short term employee benefits: All employee benefits payable wholly within twelve months of rendering the service are classified as short-term employee benefits. Benefits such as salaries, wages and short-term compensated absences, the expected cost of ex-gratia, etc are recognised in the period in which the employee renders the related services.
b) Post-employment benefits
(i) Defined Contribution Plan: Employee benefits in the form of Provident fund, employees state insurance etc. are considered as defined contribution plan and the contributions are charged to
the statements of profit and loss for the year when the contributions to the respective funds are due.
(ii) Defined Benefit Plan: Employee benefits in the form of gratuity and leave encashment are considered as defined benefit plan and are provided for on the basis of an independent actuarial valuation.
Taxes on Income
Taxes on income comprises of current taxes and deferred taxes. Current tax in the Statement of Profit and Loss is provided as the amount of tax payable in respect of taxable income for the period using tax rates and tax laws enacted during the period along with the Income Computation and disclosure standards, together with any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years.
Deferred tax is recognised on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and the â¢â¢amounts used for taxation purposes (tax base), at the tax rates and tax laws enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.
Deferred tax assets are recognised for the future tax consequences to the extent it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the deductible temporary differences can be utilised.
Income tax, in so far as it relates to items disclosed under other comprehensive income or equity, are disclosed separately under other comprehensive income or equity, as applicable.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets and liabilities and when the deferred tax balances related to the same taxation authority.
Current tax assets and tax liabilities are offset where the entity has a legally enforceable right to offset and intends either to settle on net basis, or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
Provisions
Provisions are recognised when, as a result of a past event, the Company has a legal or constructive obligation; it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation; and the amount can be reliably estimated. The amount so recognised is a best estimate of the consideration required to settle the obligation at the reporting date, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. In an event when the time value of money is material, the provision is carried at the present value of the cash flows estimated to settle the obligation.
Contingent Liability
Liabilities which are contingent in nature are not provided for in the accounts and the same are separately disclosed by way of notes to accounts.
Earnings per Share
Earnings per share are calculated by dividing the Net profit or loss for the period attributable to equity shareholders by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period. For the purpose of calculating diluted earnings per share, the net profit or loss for the period attributable to the equity shareholders and the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period are adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potential equity shares.
Company as a Lessor
Leases in which the Company does not transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of an asset are classified as operating leases. Where the Company is a lessor under an operating lease, the asset is capitalised within property, plant and equipment or investment property and depreciated over its useful economic life. Payments received under operating leases are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss on a straight line basis over the term of the lease.
Claims
Claims against the Company not acknowledged as debts are disclosed after a careful evaluation of the facts and legal aspects of the matter involved.
Operating Segments
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision-maker (CODM). The CODM, who is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments, has been identified as the Chief Financial Officer.
Segments are organised based on businesses which have similar economic characteristics as well as exhibit similarities in nature of products and services offered, the nature of production processes, the type and class of customer and distribution methods.
Segment revenue arising from third party customers is reported on the same basis as revenue in the financial statements. Inter-segment revenue is reported on the basis of transactions which are primarily market led. Segment results represent profits before finance charges, unallocated corporate expenses and taxes.
"Unallocated Corporate Expenses" include revenue and expenses that relate to initiatives/costs attributable to the enterprise as a whole.
Prior Period Adjustments
Adjustment of identifiable items of income and expenditure pertaining to prior period if any are accounted for as prior periods adjustments.
3. Use of estimates and judgements
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the results of operations during the reporting period end.
Key sources of estimation uncertainty
1. Useful lives of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets:
As described in the material accounting policies, the Company reviews the estimated useful lives of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets at the end of each reporting period.
2. Fair value measurements and valuation processes:
Some of the Company''s assets and liabilities are measured at fair value for financial reporting purposes. In estimating the fair value of an asset or a liability, the Company uses market-observable data to the extent it is available.
3. Actuarial Valuation:
The determination of Company''s liability towards defined benefit obligation to employees is made through independent actuarial valuation including determination of amounts to be recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss and in other comprehensive income.
4. Claims, Provisions and Contingent Liabilities:
The Company has ongoing litigations with various regulatory authorities and third parties. Where an outflow of funds is believed to be probable and a reliable estimate of the outcome of the dispute can be made based on management''s assessment of specific circumstances of each dispute and relevant external advice, management provides for its best estimate of the liability. Such accruals are by nature complex and can take number of years to resolve and can involve estimation uncertainty. Information about such litigations is provided in notes to the financial statement.
2. Material Accounting Policies

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS), the
provisions of the Companies Act, 2013 ("the Companies Act"), as applicable and guidelines issued by the Securities

Fair Value Measurement
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Ind AS requires management to make judgements,
estimates and assumptions that affect the application of the accounting policies and the reported amounts of
assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the year. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates
are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period; they are
recognised in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.
Operating Cycle
All assets and liabilities have been classified as current or non-current as per the Company''s normal operating
cycle and other criteria set out in the Schedule III to the Companies Act, 2013 and Ind AS 1 - Presentation of

Impairment losses recognised in prior years are reversed when there is an indication that the impairment losses recognised no longer exist or have decreased. Such reversals are recognised as an increase in carrying amounts of assets to the extent that it does not exceed the
carrying amounts that would have been determined (net of amortization or depreciation) had no impairment loss been recognised in previous years.

b) Work in progress: At lower of cost or net realisable value.
c) Finished Goods and Stock in trade: At lower of cost or net realisable value.

Investment in Subsidiaries, Associates and Joint Ventures
Investment in subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures are carried at cost less accumulated impairment, if any. Financial Assets
Recognition: Financial assets include Investments, Trade receivables, Cash and cash equivalents. Such assets are initially recognised at transaction price when the Company becomes party to contractual obligations. The transaction price includes transaction costs unless the asset is being fair valued through the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Classification: Management determines the classification of an asset at initial recognition depending on the purpose for which the assets were acquired. The subsequent measurement of financial assets depends on such classification.
Financial assets are classified as those measured at:
(a) Amortised cost, where the financial assets are held solely for collection of cash flows arising from payments of principal and / or interest.
(b) Fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI), where the financial assets are held not only for collection of cash flows arising from payments of principal and interest but also from the sale of such assets. Such assets are subsequently measured at fair value, with unrealised gains and losses arising from changes in the fair value being recognised in other comprehensive income.
(c) Fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL), where the assets are managed in accordance with an approved investment strategy that triggers purchase and sale decisions based on the fair value of such assets. Such assets are subsequently measured at fair value, with unrealised gains and losses arising from changes in the fair value being recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss in the period in which they arise.
Trade receivables, Cash and cash equivalents etc. are classified for measurement at amortised cost while investments may fall under any of the aforesaid classes. However, in respect of particular investments in equity instruments that would otherwise be measured at fair value through profit or loss, an irrevocable election at initial recognition may be made to present subsequent changes in fair value through other comprehensive income.
Impairment: The Company assesses at each reporting date whether a financial asset (or a group of financial assets) such as trade receivables, held at amortised cost and financial assets that are measured at fair value through other comprehensive income are tested for impairment based on evidence or information that is available without undue cost or effort. Expected credit losses are assessed and loss allowances recognised if the credit quality of the financial asset has deteriorated significantly since initial recognition.
Financial Liabilities
Borrowings, trade payables and other financial liabilities are initially recognised at the value of the respective contractual obligations. They are subsequently measured at amortised cost. Financial liabilities are derecognised when the liability is extinguished, that is, when the contractual obligation is discharged, cancelled and on expiry.
Revenue
Revenue is measured at the transaction price that the Company receives or expects to receive as consideration for goods supplied and services rendered, net of returns and discounts to customers.
Revenue from the sale of goods includes excise and other duties which the Company pays as a principal, but excludes amounts collected on behalf of third parties, such as Goods and service tax. Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised when the company performs its obligations to its customers, which is mainly upon delivery, the amount of revenue can be measured reliably and recovery of the consideration is probable.
Revenue from services is recognised in the periods in which the services are rendered to the customer except otherwise stated.
Rental Income (exclusive of Taxes) from assets given on licence fee/rent is recognised on rendering of services to tenants/Licensee.
Interest income is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss using the effective interest method.
Employee Benefits
a) Short term employee benefits: All employee benefits payable wholly within twelve months of rendering the service are classified as short-term employee benefits. Benefits such as salaries, wages and short-term compensated absences, the expected cost of ex-gratia, etc are recognised in the period in which the employee renders the related services.
b) Post-employment benefits
(i) Defined Contribution Plan: Employee benefits in the form of Provident fund, employees state insurance etc. are considered as defined contribution plan and the contributions are charged to the statements of profit and loss for the year when the contributions to the respective funds are due.
(ii) Defined Benefit Plan: Employee benefits in the form of gratuity and leave encashment are considered as defined benefit plan and are provided for on the basis of an independent actuarial valuation.
Taxes on Income
Taxes on income comprises of current taxes and deferred taxes. Current tax in the Statement of Profit and Loss is provided as the amount of tax payable in respect of taxable income for the period using tax rates and tax laws enacted during the period along with the Income Computation and disclosure standards, together with any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years.
Deferred tax is recognised on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and the amounts used for taxation purposes (tax base), at the tax rates and tax laws enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.
Deferred tax assets are recognised for the future tax consequences to the extent it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the deductible temporary differences can be utilised.
Income tax, in so far as it relates to items disclosed under other comprehensive income or equity, are disclosed separately under other comprehensive income or equity, as applicable.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets and liabilities and when the deferred tax balances related to the same taxation authority.
Current tax assets and tax liabilities are offset where the entity has a legally enforceable right to offset and intends either to settle on net basis, or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
1. Significant Accounting Policies Statement of Compliance
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS) notified under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013. The financial statements have also been prepared in accordance with the relevant presentation requirements of the Companies Act, 2013. The Company has adopted Ind AS from 1st April, 2017
Up to the year ended 31st March, 2017, the Company prepared its financial statements in accordance with the requirements of previous Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), which includes Standards notified under the Companies (Accounting Standards) Rules, 2006. These are the Companyâs first Ind AS financial statements. The date of transition to Ind AS is 1st April, 2016. Details of the exceptions and optional exemptions availed by the Company and principal adjustments along with related reconciliations are detailed in Note 41 (First-time Adoption).
Basis of Preparation
The financial statements are prepared in accordance with the historical cost convention, except for certain items that are measured at fair values, as explained in the accounting policies.
Fair Value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date, regardless of whether that price is directly observable or estimated using another valuation technique. In estimating the fair value of an asset or a liability, the Company takes into account the characteristics of the asset or liability.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Ind AS requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of the accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the year. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period; they are recognised in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.
Operating Cycle
All assets and liabilities have been classified as current or non-current as per the Companyâs normal operating cycle and other criteria set out in the Schedule III to the Companies Act, 2013 and Ind AS 1 - Presentation of Financial Statements based on the nature of products and the time between the acquisition of assets for processing and their realisation in cash and cash equivalents.
Property. Plant and Equipment - Tangible Assets
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost of acquisition or construction less accumulated depreciation and impairment, if any. For this purpose, cost includes deemed cost which represents the carrying value of property, plant and equipment recognised as at 1st April, 2016 measured as per the previous GAAP.
Cost is inclusive of inward freight, duties and taxes and incidental expenses related to acquisition. Expenses capitalised also include applicable borrowing costs for qualifying assets, if any. All up gradation / enhancements are charged off as revenue expenditure unless they bring similar significant additional benefits.
An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of asset. Any gain or loss arising on the disposal or retirement of an item of property, plant and equipment is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss. Depreciation of these assets commences when the assets are ready for their intended use which is generally on commissioning. Items of property, plant and equipment are depreciated in a manner that amortizes the cost (or other amount substituted for cost) of the assets after commissioning, less its residual value, over their useful lives as pacified in Schedule II of the Companies Act, 2013 on a straight line basis. Land is not depreciated.
The estimated useful lives of property,
Intangible Assets that the Company controls and from which it expects future economic benefits are capitalised upon acquisition and measured initially at cost comprising the purchase price (including import duties and non refundable taxes) and directly attributable costs to prepare the asset for its intended use.
The carrying value of intangible assets includes deemed cost which represents the carrying value of intangible assets recognised as at 1st April, 2016 measured as per the previous GAAP.
The useful life of an intangible asset is considered finite due to the likelihood of technical, technological obsolescence (e.g., computer software, design, prototypes).Hence Intangible assets that have finite lives are amortized over their estimated useful lives by the straight line method unless it is practical to reliably determine the pattern of benefits arising from the asset.
All intangible assets are tested for impairment. Amortization expenses and impairment losses and reversal of impairment losses are taken to the Statement of Profit and Loss. Thus, after initial recognition, an intangible asset is carried at its cost less accumulated amortization and / or impairment losses.
The useful lives of intangible assets are reviewed annually to determine if a reset of such useful life is required for assets with finite lives.
Impairment of Assets
Impairment loss, if any, is provided to the extent, the carrying amount of assets or cash generating units exceed their recoverable amount. Recoverable amount is higher of an assetâs net selling price and its value in use. Value in use is the present value of estimated future cash flows expected to arise from the continuing use of an asset or cash generating unit and from its disposal at the end of its useful life. Impairment losses recognised in prior years are reversed when there is an indication that the impairment losses recognised no longer exist or have decreased. Such reversals are recognised as an increase in carrying amounts of assets to the extent that it does not exceed the carrying amounts that would have been determined (net of amortization or depreciation) had no impairment loss been recognised in previous year
