 certainty that sufficient future taxable income will be available
 against which such deferred tax assets can be realised. If the Company
 has unabsorbed depreciation or carry forward tax losses, deferred tax
 assets are recognised only if there is a virtual certainty supported by
 convincing evidence that such deferred tax assets can be realised
 against future taxable profits.
 
 At each balance sheet date the Company re- assesses unrecognised

 The Company creates a provision when there is present obligation as a
 result of a past event that probably requires an outflow of resources
 embodying economic benefits and a reliable estimate can be made of the
 amount of the obligation. A disclosure for a contingent liability is
 made when there is a possible obligation or a present obligation that
 may, but probably will not, require an outflow of resources. When there
 is a possible obligation or a present obligation in respect of which
 the likelihood of outflow of resources is remote, no provision or
 disclosure is made.

 Service tax collected is considered as a liability against which
 service tax paid for eligible input services, to the extent claimable,
 is adjusted and the net liability is remitted to the appropriate
