MPS Ltd. - Quarterly/Annual Result Disclosures and Notes dated 31 Mar 2020

NOTES:

1. These results have been prepared in accordance with the Ind AS notified under the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules 2015. These results have been reviewed by the Audit Committee and upon their recommendation, approved by the Board of Directors at their meeting held on 19 May 2020. The Statutory auditors of the Company have carried out audit of the financial results for the quarter and year ended 31 March 2020 and an unmodified report has been issued. The same has been filed with Stock Exchanges and is also available on the Company’s website at www.mpslimited.com.



2. The figures for the three months ended 31 March 2020 and 31 March 2019 are the balancing figures between audited figures in respect of the full financial year and the published year to date figures up to preceding quarter of the relevant financial year.



3 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.



(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.



4. Effective 1 April 2019, the Company adopted Ind AS 116 “Leases”, applied to all lease contracts existing on 1 April 2019 using the modified retrospective method and has taken the cumulative adjustment to retained earnings, on the date of initial application. Accordingly, comparatives for the year ended 31 March 2019 have not been retrospectively adjusted. On transition, the adoption of the new standard resulted in recognition of Right-of-Use asset (ROU) of INR 1,077 Lacs and a lease liability of INR 1,365 Lacs. The cumulative effect of applying the standard resulted in INR 205 Lacs being debited to retained earnings, net of taxes. The effect of this adoption is not material on the profit for the period and year to date and earnings per share.



5. In assessing the recoverability of receivables including unbilled receivables, contract assets and contract costs, goodwill, intangible assets, and certain investments, the Company has considered internal and external information up to the date of approval of these financial statements including credit reports and economic forecasts considering emerging situations due to COVID-19. Based on current indicators of future economic conditions, the Company expects to recover the carrying amount of these assets. Due to the nature of the pandemic, the Company will continue to monitor developments to identify significant uncertainties in future periods.
