3rd May, 2023.
Major Sources of Estimation Uncertainty
In the application of accounting policy which are described in
para (D) below, the management is required to make judgment,
estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets
and liabilities, income and expenses, contingent liabilities and
the accompanying disclosures that are not readily apparent
from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions
are based on historical experience and other factors that are
considered to be relevant and are prudent and reasonable.
Actual results may differ from those estimates. The estimates
and underlying assumptions are reviewed on ongoing basis.
Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period
in which the estimates are revised if the revision affects only
that period or in the period of revision and future periods if the
revision affects both current and future period.
The few critical estimations and judgments made in applying
accounting policies are:
Property, Plant and Equipment:
Useful life of Property, Plant and Equipment and Intangible
Assets are as specified in Schedule II to the Companies Act,
2013 and on certain assets based on technical advice which
considered the nature of the asset, the usage of the asset,
expected physical wear and tear, the operating conditions of
the asset, anticipated technological changes, manufacturers
warranties and maintenance support. The Group reviews the
useful life of Property, Plant and Equipment at the end of each
reporting period. This reassessment may result in change in
depreciation charge in future periods. (Refer Note 1 (D 1))
Impairment of Non-financial Assets:
For calculating the recoverable amount of non-financial
assets, the Group is required to estimate the value-in-use of the
asset or the Cash Generating Unit and the fair value less costs
to disposal. For calculating value in use the Group is required
to estimate the cash flows to be generated from using the
asset. The fair value of an asset is estimated using a valuation
technique where observable prices are not available. Further,
the discount rate used in value in use calculations includes an
estimate of risk assessment specific to the asset. (Refer Note 1
(D 4))
Impairment of Financial Assets:
The Group impairs financial assets other than those measured
at fair value through profit or loss or designated at fair value
through other comprehensive income on expected credit
losses. The estimation of expected credit loss includes the
estimation of probability of default (PD), loss given default
(LGD) and the exposure at default (EAD). Estimation of
probability of default apart from involving trend analysis of
past delinquency rates include an estimation on forward-
looking information relating to not only the counterparty but
also relating to the industry and the economy as a whole.
The probability of default is estimated for the entire life of
the contract by estimating the cash flows that are likely to
be received in default scenario. The lifetime PD is reduced
to 12 months PD based on an assessment of past history of
default cases in 12 months. Further, the loss given default is
calculated based on an estimate of the value of the security
recoverable as on the reporting date. The exposure at default is
the amount outstanding at the balance sheet date. (Refer Note
1 (D 21(a)))
Defined Benefit Plans:
The cost of the defined benefit plan and other post-
employment benefits and the present value of such obligations
are determined using actuarial valuations. An actuarial
valuation involves making various assumptions that may
differ from actual developments in the future. These include
the determination of the discount rate, future salary increases,
mortality rates and attrition rate. Due to the complexities
involved in the valuation and its long-term nature, a defined
benefit obligation is highly sensitive to changes in theseView entire presentation
