A) Basis of preparation The financial statements are prepared under the historical cost convention in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), and materially comply with the mandatory accounting standards notified under Section 211(3C) [(Companies (Accounting Standards) Rules, 2006, as amended] and other relevant provisions of the Companies Act, 1956. All income and expenditure having a material bearing on the financial statements are recognized on the accrual basis. B) Use of estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported balances of assets and liabilities, disclosure related to contingent liabilities as at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Examples of such estimates include estimates of expected contract costs to be incurred to complete software development, provision for doubtful debts, and the useful life of fixed assets. Actual results could differ from these estimates. C) Revenue recognition Revenue from fixed-price contracts is recognized principally on the basis of completed milestones as specified in the contracts, on a percentage of completion basis. Where milestones are not representative of the percentage of completion method, estimates of work completed to the Balance Sheet date are used to recognize revenue on fixed-price contracts. Revenue from software developed on a time-and-materials basis is recognized as per the terms of specific contracts. D) Fixed Assets Fixed assets are stated at the cost of acquisition or construction, less accumulated depreciation. Direct costs are capitalized until the assets are ready to be put to use. E) Depreciation Depreciation on fixed assets is provided using the straight-line method at the rates specified in the Schedule XIV of the Companies Act, 1956. It is charged on a pro-rata basis for assets purchased/sold during the year. Individual assets costing Rs. 5,000/- or less are depreciated in full in the year of purchase. F) Impairment The Company assesses at each Balance Sheet date whether there is any indication that any asset may be impaired and if such indication exists, the carrying value of such asset is reduced to its recoverable amount and a provision is made for such impairment loss in the profit and loss account. G) Foreign Currency Transactions Foreign currency transactions during the period are recorded at the exchange rates prevailing on the date of the transaction. Foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities are translated into rupees at the rates of exchange prevailing at the date of the balance sheet. All exchange differences are dealt with in the statement of profit and loss, except for those relating to the acquisition of fixed assets, which are adjusted in the cost of the fixed assets. H) Borrowing Cost Borrowing cost attributable to the acquisition of fixed assets is included in the cost of asset. The balance borrowing cost is charged to revenue. I) Investments Long Term Investments are stated at cost. Other investments are stated at the lower of cost or market value. Any decline, other than temporary in the value of long term investments (including investments in subsidiaries) is charged to the Profit & Loss Account. J) Income Tax Current Income tax is computed using the tax effect accounting method, where taxes are accrued in the same period the related revenue and expenses arise. Deferred tax asset or liability is recorded for the timing differences. The Deferred tax asset or liability is recognized using the tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the Balance Sheet date. K) Export Benefits The Company accounts for export benefit entitlements under the Duty Entitlement Pass Book Scheme of Government of India, on accrual basis. L) Contingent Liabilities Contingent Liabilities as defined in Accounting Standard-29 are disclosed by way of notes to accounts. M) Current / Non Current All assets and liabilities are presented as Current or Non Current as per Company''s normal operating cycle and other criteria set out in the Revised Schedule VI of the Companies Act, 1956. Based on the nature of products and the time of acquisition of assets and their realisation, the Company has ascertained its operating cycle as 12 months for the purpose of Current / Non Current classification of assets and liabilities. |
