(1) Changes in Estimates:
Change in Useful life of Fixed Assets:
In the current year, based on technical estimates, the Company has
re-estimated the useful lives for Plant and Machinery - construction
equipment (otherthan earth moving equipments, shuttering/scaffolding
material and equipments given on hire) and depreciated the written down
value as on April 01,2010 over the revised estimated balance life. The
Management believes that such change will give a systematic basis of
depreciation charge more representative of the time pattern in which
the economic benefits will be derived from the use of such asset. The
useful life has been re-estimated from 11 years to 15 years.
Had the Company continued to use the earlier basis of providing
depreciation, the depreciation for the current year would have been
higher by Rs. 6.65, profit aftertax would have been lower by Rs. 6.65
and net block for the current year would have been lower by Rs. 6.65.
In the previous year, based on technical estimates, the Company had
re-estimated the useful lives of certain category of Fixed Assets
(given on hire) with effect from April 01,2009. Had the Company
continued to use the earlier basis of providing depreciation, the
depreciation and loss for the previous year would have been lower by
Rs. 6.48 and net block for the previous year would have been higher by
Rs. 6.48.
2) Capital Commitments:
Estimated amount of contracts remaining to be executed on capital
account and not provided for Rs. 1.72 (March 31,2010: Rs.0.95).
