Tangible Fixed Assets are stated at cost of acquisition less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, if any. Cost includes all incidental

Depreciation on Tangible assets has been provided on the straight-line method as per the rates prescribed in Schedule XIV to the Companies Act,
1956. Depreciation on assets acquired/sold during the year is provided on prorata basis. Assets individually costing Rs. 5,000 or less are fully
depreciated in the year of purchase.
Assessment is done at each Balance Sheet date as to whether there is any indication that an asset (tangible and intangible) may be impaired. For
the purpose of assessing impairment, the smallest identifiable group of assets that generates cash inflows from continuing use that are largely
independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets, is considered as a cash generating unit. If any such indication exists, an
estimate of the recoverable amount of the asset/cash generating unit is made. Assets whose carrying value exceeds their recoverable amount are
written down to the recoverable amount. Recoverable amount is higher of an asset?s or cash generating unit?s net selling price and its value in
use. Value in use is the present value of estimated future cash flows expected to arise from the continuing use of an asset and from its disposal at
the end of its useful life. Assessment is also done at each Balance Sheet date as to whether there is any indication that an impairment loss
recognised for an asset in prior accounting periods may no longer exist or may have decreased.
