4 Segment Reporting

(a) Based on the "management approach" as defined in Ind AS108 Operating Segments, the Chief Operating Decision Maker (‘CODM’) evaluates the Company’s performance and
allocates resources based on an analysis of various performance indicators by business segments. Accordingly, information has been presented along with these business segments.
The accounting principles used in the preparation of the financial statements are consistently applied to record revenue and expenditure in individual segments.
During the quarter ended December 2017, segment revenue and cost has been realigned as per the changes in the evaluation of performance by CODM. Accordingly figures for the
previous quarters, previous periods and previous year have been realigned to conform to current period presentation.

(b) Assets and liabilities used in the Company’s business are not identified to any of the reportable segments, as these are used interchangeably between segments and the
management believes that it is not practicable to provide segment disclosures relating to total assets and liabilities.
