21 TAXES ON INCOME

- Minimum Alternate Tax (MAT) paid in accordance with the tax laws, which gives future economic benefits in the form of
adjustment to future income tax liability, is considered as an asset if there is convincing evidence that the company will
pay normal income tax, Accordingly, MAT is recognized as an asset in the Balance Sheet when it is probable that future
economic benefit associated with it will flow to the Company.

- Deferred tax is recognized on timing differences, being the differences between the taxable income and the accounting
income that orginiate in one period and are capable of reversal in one or more subsequent periods. Deffered tax is
measured using the tax rates and the tax laws enacted or substantially enacted as the reporting date. Deffered tax
liabilites are recognised for all timing difference. Deffered tax asset in respect of unabsorbed depreciation and carry
forward of losses are recognised only if there is virtual certainty that there will be sufficient future taxable income available
to realise such assets. Deferred tax assets are recognised for timing differences of other items only to the extent that
reasonable certainty exists that sufficient future taxable income will be available against which these can be realised.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset is such items relate to taxes on income leived by the same governing tax laws
and the Company has a legally enforcable right for such set off. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each Balance Sheet
date for their realisability.

Current and deferred tax relating to items directly recognised in equity are recognised in equity and not in the Statement

- of Profit and Loss.
