Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets

A provision is recognised when the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation
as a result of a past event and it is probable that an outflow of economic resources will be
required from the Company and amounts can be estimated reliably. Timing or amount of
the outflow may still be uncertain.

Provisions are measured at the estimated expenditure required to settle the present
obligation, based on the most reliable evidence available at the reporting date, including
the risks and uncertainties associated with the present obligation. Where there are a
number of similar obligations, the likelihood that an outflow will be required in settlement
is determined by considering the class of obligations as a whole. Provisions are discounted
to their present values, where the time value of money is material.

In those cases where the possible outflow of economic resources as a result of present
obligations is considered improbable or remote, no liability is recognized or disclosure is
made.

Contingent liabilities are disclosed in case of present obligation arising from past events,
when it is not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation
or the amount cannot be estimated reliably.

Contingent assets are not recognised. However, when inflow of economic benefit is
probable, related asset is disclosed.

p) Government grants

Government grants are recognised if it is sufficiently certain that the assistance will be
granted and the conditions attached to assistance are satisfied. Where the grant relates to
specified asset, it is recognised as deferred income, and amortized over the expected useful
life of the asset. Other grants are recognised in the statement of profit and loss concurrent
to the expenses to which such grants relate/ are intended to cover.

Where the Company receives non-monetary grants, the asset and the grant are recorded
gross at fair amounts and released to the statement of profit and loss over the expected
useful life and pattern of consumption of the benefit of the underlying asset.

q) Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and demand deposits, together with
other short-term, highly liquid investments (original maturity less than 3 months) that are
readily convertible into known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant
risk of changes in value.

r) Statement of Cash flow

Statement of cash flow is being prepare in accordance with the requirements of Indian
Accounting Standard (Ind AS) 7 "Statement of Cash Flows". Cash flows from operating
activities is reported using the indirect method whereby profit or loss is adjusted for the
effects of transactions of a non-cash nature, any deferrals or accruals of past or future
operating cash receipts or payments, and items of income or expense associated with
investing or financing cash flows.

s) Adjustment pertaining to earlier years

Income from services and other income pertaining to prior years is not disclosed as prior
period item for each individual transaction not exceeding ' ?1.00 lakh and similarly items
of expenditure for each individual transaction not exceeding ' ?1.00 lakh are considered as
expenditure of current year.

In respect of other items of income (including operating income and other income) and
expenditure relating to prior periods, the net effect of which on retained earning does not
exceed 1% of turnover is treated as income/expenditure of current year.

t) Equity, reserves and dividend payments

Share capital represents the nominal value of shares that have been issued. Share premium
includes any premiums received on issue of share capital. Any transaction costs associated
with issuing of shares are deducted from share premium account, net of any related income
tax benefits.

Other components of equity include the following:

• Re-measurement of defined benefit liability - comprises the actuarial gain or loss from
changes in demographic and financial assumptions and return on plan assets

• Reserve for contingencies

• Reserve for research and development

• Reserve for debenture redemption

• General reserve

• Other transactions recorded directly in other comprehensive income.

Retained earnings include all current and prior period retained profits. All transactions with
owners of the parent are recorded separately within equity. Dividend distributions payable to
equity shareholders are included in other liabilities when the dividends have been approved in
a general meeting prior to the reporting date.

Standards issued but not yet effective:

Ministry of Corporate Affairs ("MCA") notifies new standard or amendments to the existing
standards. Following are amendments to existing standards, which are applicable to the
company and will be effective from 1 April 2023.

Amendment to Ind AS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements

The Ministry of Corporate affairs ("MCA") vide its notification dated 31 March 2023 has issued
an amendment to Ind AS 1 which specifies that companies should disclose material accounting
policy information instead of significant accounting policies. Accounting policy information
together with other information is material when it can reasonably be expected to influence
decisions of primary users of general purpose financial statements.

An entity shall disclose, along with material accounting policy information or other notes, the
judgements, apart from those involving estimations, that management has made in the process
of applying the entity's accounting policies and that have the most significant effect on the
amounts recognised in the financial statements.

Amendment to Ind AS 8, Accounting Policies, Change in Accounting Estimates and Errors

The Ministry of Corporate affairs ("MCA") vide its notification dated 31 March 2023 has issued
an amendment to Ind AS 101 which substituted the definition of 'change in accounting estimate'
with accounting estimate. The revised definition says that accounting estimates are monetary
amounts in the financial statements that are subject to measurement uncertainty. A company
develops an accounting estimate to achieve the objective set out by an accounting policy.
Accounting estimate includes selection of a measurement technique and selection of inputs to
be used when applying the chosen measurement technique.

An entity uses measurement techniques and inputs to develop an accounting estimate.
Measurement techniques include estimation techniques (for example, techniques used to measure
a loss allowance for expected credit losses applying Ind AS 109) and valuation techniques

An entity may need to change an accounting estimate if changes occur in the circumstances on
which the accounting estimate was based or as a result of new information, new developments
or more experience. By its nature, a change in an accounting estimate does not relate to prior
periods and is not the correction of an error.

The effects on an accounting estimate of a change in an input or a change in a measurement
technique are changes in accounting estimates unless they result from the correction of prior
period errors

Prospective recognition of the effect of a change in an accounting estimate means that the
change is applied to transactions, other events and conditions from the date of that change.
A change in an accounting estimate may affect only the current period's profit or loss, or the
profit or loss of both the current period and future periods. For example, a change in a loss
allowance for expected credit losses affects only the current period's profit or loss and therefore
is recognised in the current period. However, a change in the estimated useful life of, or the
expected pattern of consumption of the future economic benefits embodied in, a depreciable
asset affects depreciation expense for the current period and for each future period during the
asset's remaining useful life. In both cases, the effect of the change relating to the current period
is recognised as income or expense in the current period. The effect, if any, on future periods is
recognised as income or expense in those future periods.

Corrections of errors are distinguished from changes in accounting estimates. Accounting
estimates by their nature are approximations that may need changing as additional information
becomes known. For example, the gain or loss recognised on the outcome of a contingency is
not the correction of an error.

Amendment to Ind AS 12, Income Taxes:

The Ministry of Corporate affairs ("MCA") vide its notification dated 31 March 2023 has issued
an amendment to Ind AS 12 which specifies that the initial recognition of an asset or liability
in a transaction which at the time of the transaction, does not give rise to equal taxable and
deductible temporary differences.

Income recognition exemption does not apply to transactions that give rise to equal and offsetting
temporary differences. Accordingly, companies will need to recognise a deferred tax asset and
deferred tax liability for temporary differences arising on transactions such as initial recognition
of a lease and a decommissioning provision.

The amendment also specifies that if the transaction is not a business combination, affects neither
accounting profit nor taxable profit and does not give rise to equal taxable and deductible
temporary differences, an entity would, in the absence of the exemption provided by paragraphs
15 and 24, recognise the resulting deferred tax liability or asset and adjust the carrying amount of
the asset or liability by the same amount. Such adjustments would make the financial statements

less transparent. Therefore, this Standard does not permit an entity to recognise the resulting
deferred tax liability or asset, either on initial recognition or subsequently. Furthermore, an
entity does not recognise subsequent changes in the unrecognised deferred tax liability or asset
as the asset is depreciated.

A transaction that is not a business combination may lead to the initial recognition of an asset
and a liability and, at the time of the transaction, affect neither accounting profit nor taxable
profit. For example, at the commencement date of a lease, a lessee typically recognises a lease
liability and the corresponding amount as part of the cost of a right-of-use asset. Depending
on the applicable tax law, equal taxable and deductible temporary differences may arise on
initial recognition of the asset and liability in such a transaction. The exemption provided by
paragraphs 15 and 24 does not apply to such temporary differences and an entity recognises any
resulting deferred tax liability and asset.

Amendment to Ind AS 34, Interim Financial Reporting

The Ministry of Corporate affairs ("MCA") vide its notification dated 31 March 2023 has issued
an amendment to Ind AS 101 which specifies that the words "significant accounting policies", is
replaced with "material accounting policy information"

Significant management judgement in applying accounting policies and estimation
uncertainty

The preparation of the Company's standalone financial statements requires management to
make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues,
expenses, assets and liabilities, and the disclosure of contingent liabilities, at the end of the
reporting period. However, uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in
outcomes that require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of the assets or liabilities in
future periods.

Significant management judgements

The following are significant management judgements in applying the accounting policies of
the Company that have significant effect on the financial statements.

Recognition of deferred tax assets - The extent to which deferred tax assets can be recognized
is based on an assessment of the probability of the Company's future taxable income against
which the deferred tax assets can be utilized. In addition, significant judgement is required in
assessing the impact of any legal or economic limits or uncertainties in various tax jurisdictions

Evaluation of indicators for impairment of assets - The evaluation of applicability of indicators
of impairment of assets requires assessment of several external and internal factors which could
result in deterioration of recoverable amount of the assets.

Assessment lease term -Lease term includes non-cancellable periods of lease along with
extension options reasonably certain to be exercised and termination options reasonably certain
not to be exercised. The assessment of whether extension options and termination options
are reasonably certain to be exercised or not to be exercised, involve significant management
judgement based upon economic incentives to extend or terminate the lease.

Activation and installation fees - The Company receives activation and installation fees from
new customers. These fees together with directly attributable costs are amortised over the
estimated duration of customer relationship period. The customer relationship period is reviewed
periodically. The estimated relationship period principally reflects management's view of the
average economic relationship period of the customer base and is assessed by reference to key
performance indicators (KPIs) which are linked to establishment/ ascertainment of customer
relationship period. A change in such KPIs may lead to a change in the estimated useful life and
an increase/ decrease in the amortisation income/charge. The Company believes that the change
in such KPIs will not have any material effect on the financial statements.

Recoverability of advances/receivables - At each balance sheet date, based on discussions with
the respective counter-parties and internal assessment of their credit worthiness, the management
assesses the recoverability of outstanding receivables and advances. Such assessment requires
significant management judgement based on financial position of the counter-parties, market
information and other relevant factor.

Classification of assets and liabilities into current and non-current - The management classifies
the assets and liabilities into current and non-current categories based on management's
expectation of the timing of realisation of the assets or timing of contractual settlement of
liabilities.

Impairment of assets - In assessing impairment, management estimates the recoverable
amounts of each asset or cash-generating unit (in case of non-financial assets) based on expected
future cash flows and uses an interest rate to discount them. Estimation uncertainty relates to
assumptions about future cash flows and the determination of a suitable discount rate

Useful lives of depreciable/amortisable assets (tangible and intangible) - Management
reviews its estimate of the useful lives of depreciable/amortisable assets at each reporting date,
based on the expected utility of the assets. Uncertainties in these estimates relate to technical and
economic obsolescence that may change the utility of certain software, customer relationships, IT
equipment and other plant and equipment. During the current year, the Company has changed
its estimate of useful live for mobile handsets used for service connection from 4 years to 3 years.
The impact of such change in useful live is immaterial on the Company's financial statements.

Inventories - Management estimates the cost of inventories including cost of materials and
overheads considered attributable to the production of such inventories, taking into account
the most reliable evidence available including actual cost of production, etc. Management also
estimates the net realisable values of inventories, taking into account the most reliable evidence
available at each reporting date. The future realisation of these inventories may be affected by
future technology or other market-driven changes that may reduce future selling prices.

Defined benefit obligation (DBO) - Management's estimate of the DBO is based on a number of
critical underlying assumptions such as standard rates of inflation, medical cost trends, mortality,
discount rate and anticipation of future salary increases. Variation in these assumptions may
significantly impact the DBO amount and the annual defined benefit expenses

Fair value measurements - Management applies valuation techniques to determine the fair value
of financial instruments (where active market quotes are not available) and non-financial assets.
This involves developing estimates and assumptions consistent with how market participants
would price the instrument. Management bases its assumptions on observable data as far as
possible but this is not always available. In that case management uses the best information
available. Estimated fair values may vary from the actual prices that would be achieved in an
arm's length transaction at the reporting date.
