plan. Under the plan, the Company is required to contribute a specified
percentage of employee''s salary to the retirement benefit plan to fund
the benefits. The Company has recognised Rs. 200.84 lacs (P.Y. Rs. 108.05

the investments of the Trust and the notified interest rate.
Defined Benefit Plan
The Company recognises the liability towards the gratuity at each
Balance Sheet date. The present value of obligation is determined based
on actuarial valuation using the Projected Unit Credit Method, which
recognises each period of service as giving rise to additional unit of
employee benefit entitlement and measures each unit separately to build
up the final obligation. The obligation for leave encashment and Post
Retirement Medical Benefits is also recognised in the same manner as
gratuity.
Under Post retirement medical benefits, the Company would reimburse a
fixed amount towards the mediclaim policy (subject to ceiling limits)
to its employees. Such payment is not dependent upon the future salary
increases, inflation and medical costs trend and therefore the impact
of increase / decrease in medical cost trends is not required to be
ascertained.
