n. Earning Per Share

The basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net profit after tax for the year by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year. For the purpose of calculating diluted earnings per share, net profit after tax during the year and the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year are adjusted for the effect of all dilutive potential equity shares. The dilutive potential equity shares are deemed converted as of the beginning of the year unless they have been issued at a later date.

Anti dilutive effect of any potential equity shares is ignored in the calculation of earnings per share.

The cash flow from regular revenue generating, investing and financing activities of the Company are segregated.

p. Operating Cycle

Based on the nature of products/activitiy of the company and the normal time between acquisition of assets and their realisation in cash or cash equvalents, the company has determined its operating cycle as 12 months for the purpose of classification of its assets and liabilities as current and non-current.

q. Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Indian GAAP requires managements to make judgments, estimates and assumption that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent liabilities, at the end of the reporting period. Although these estimates are based on the management''s best knowledge of current events and actions, uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in the outcomes requiring a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities in future periods.
