MphasiS Group
Basis of preparation
The consolidated financial statements of MphasiS Limited (‘the Company’) and its subsidiaries, collectively referred to as ‘the
MphasiS Group’ or ‘the Group’, have been prepared and presented under the historical cost convention on the accrual basis of
accounting and comply with the mandatory Accounting Standards (‘AS’) prescribed in the Companies (Accounting Standards)
Rules, 2006, other pronouncements of the Institute of the Chartered Accountants of India (‘ICAI’) and the related provisions of
the Companies Act 1956.
Basis of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of MphasiS Limited and all its subsidiaries, which are
more than 50% owned or controlled. Please refer to Note 2 for the description of the Group.
The financial statements are prepared in accordance with the principles and procedures for the preparation and presentation of
consolidated financial statements as laid down under AS 21, Consolidated Financial Statements prescribed by the Companies
(Accounting Standards) Rules, 2006.
The financial statements of the parent company and subsidiaries have been combined on a line-by-line basis by adding together
the book values of like items of assets, liabilities, income and expenses after eliminating intra-group balances/ transactions and
resulting unrealised profits in full. Unrealised losses resulting from intra-group transactions have also been eliminated except to
the extent that the recoverable value of related assets are lower than their cost to the Group. The amounts shown in respect of
reserves comprise the amount of the relevant reserves as per the balance sheet of the parent company and its share in the
post-acquisition increase in the relevant reserves of subsidiaries.
Minority interest is the amount of equity attributable to minorities at the date on which investment in a subsidiary is made and its
share of movements in the equity since that date. Any excess consideration received from minority shareholders of subsidiaries
over the amount of equity attributable to the minority on the date of investment is reflected under reserves and surplus.
Consolidated financial statements are prepared using uniform accounting policies across the Group.
Use of estimates
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the
reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent liabilities on the date of the consolidated financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the year reported. Actual results could differ from those
estimates. Any revision to accounting estimates is recognised prospectively in the current and future years.
Revenue recognition
The Group derives its revenues primarily from software services & projects, call centre & business process outsourcing
operations, infrastructure outsourcing services and from licensing arrangements & application services.
Revenues from software services & projects comprise income from time-and-material and fixed-price contracts. Revenue from
time-and-material contracts is recognised on the basis of software developed and billable in accordance with the terms of
contracts with clients. Revenue from fixed-price contracts is recognised using the percentage of completion method, calculated as
the proportion of the cost of effort incurred up to the reporting date to estimated cost of total effort.
Revenue from call centre & business process outsourcing operations arises from both time-based and unit-priced client contracts.
Such revenue is recognised on completion of the related services and is billable in accordance with the specific terms of the
contracts with clients.
Revenue from infrastructure outsourcing services arises from time-and-material contracts and accordingly, revenue is recognised
on the basis of services billable in accordance with the terms of the contracts with clients.
Revenue from licensing arrangements is recognised on transfer of the title in user licenses except those contracts, which require
significant implementation services, where revenue is recognized over the implementation period in accordance with the specific
terms of the contracts with clients.
Maintenance revenue is recognised rateably over the period of underlying maintenance agreements.
Provisions for estimated losses on incomplete contracts are recorded in the period in which such losses become probable based
on the current contract estimates. ‘Unbilled revenues’ included in current assets represent revenues in excess of amounts billed to
clients as at the balance sheet date. ‘Unearned receivables’ included in current liabilities represent billings in excess of revenues
recognised.
Advances received for services are reported as liabilities until all conditions for revenue recognition are met.
Interest on the deployment of surplus funds is recognised using the time-proportion method, based on underlying interest rates.
Dividend income is recognised when the right to receive the dividend is established.

Freehold land is not depreciated. Leasehold improvements are amortised over the remaining lease term or 3 years (5 years for
Call center services), whichever is shorter. Significant purchased application software and internally generated software that is
an integral part of the Group’s computer systems, expected to provide lasting benefits, is capitalised at cost and amortised on the
straight-line method over its estimated useful life or 3 years, whichever is shorter. Internally generated software for sale expected
to provide lasting benefits is amortised on the straight-line method over its estimated life or 7 years, whichever is shorter.
Leases
Leases where the lessor effectively retains substantially all the risks and benefits of ownership of the leased term, are classified as
operating leases. Operating lease payments are recognized as an expense in the profit and loss account on a straight-line basis over
the lease term.
Profit or loss on sale and lease back arrangements resulting in operating leases are recognised immediately in case the transaction is
established at fair value, else the excess over the fair value is deferred and amortized over the period for which the asset is expected
to be used.
Impairment of assets
The Group assesses at each balance sheet date whether there is any indication that a fixed asset including goodwill may be
impaired. If any such indication exists, the Group estimates the recoverable amount of the asset. If such recoverable amount of the
asset or the recoverable amount of the cash generating unit to which the asset belongs is less than its carrying amount, the carrying
amount is reduced to its recoverable amount. The reduction is treated as an impairment loss and is recognised in the profit and loss
account. If at the balance sheet date there is an indication that if a previously assessed impairment loss no longer exists, the
recoverable amount is reassessed and the asset is reflected at the recoverable amount subject to a maximum of depreciated historical
cost. In respect of goodwill, the impairment loss will be reversed only when it was caused by specific external events and their
effects have been reversed by subsequent external events.
Investments
Investments that are readily realisable and intended to be held for not more than a year are classified as current investments. All
other investments are classified as long-term investments. Current investments are carried at lower of cost and fair value
determined on an individual investment basis.
Long-term investments are carried at cost. Provision for diminution in value of investment is made if the impairment is not
temporary in nature.

Employee benefits
Gratuity which is a defined benefit is accrued based on independent actuarial valuation which is done based on project unit credit
method as at the balance sheet date. Actuarial gains/losses are immediately taken to profit and loss account and are not deferred.
The cost of short term compensated absence is provided for based on estimates. Long term compensated absences costs are
provided for based on actuarial valuation which is done based on project unit credit method.
Contributions payable to recognised provident funds and approved superannuation schemes, which are defined contribution
schemes, are charged to the profit and loss account. The Group liability is limited to the contribution made to fund.
Foreign currency
Foreign exchange transactions are recorded at the rates of exchange prevailing on the dates of the respective transactions.
Exchange differences arising on foreign exchange transactions settled during a year are recognised in the profit and loss account
of that year.
Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies as at the balance sheet date are translated at the exchange rates
on that date. The resultant exchange differences are recognised in the profit and loss account.
The financial statements of foreign subsidiaries being non-integral operations in terms of para 24 of AS 11, accounting for the
Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates, are translated into Indian rupees as follows:
a) Income and expense items are translated at the average exchange rates.
b) Assets (including goodwill) and liabilities, both monetary and non-monetary are translated at the closing rate.
c) All resulting exchange differences are accumulated in a foreign currency translation reserve which is reflected under
Reserves and Surplus until the disposal of the net investment.
d) Contingent liabilities are translated at the closing rate.
Forward contracts are entered into to hedge the foreign currency risk of the underlying outstanding at the balance sheet date and
also to hedge the foreign currency risk of firm commitment or highly probable forecast transaction. The premium or discount on
forward contracts that are entered into to hedge the foreign currency risk of the underlying outstanding at the balance sheet date,
arising at the inception of each contract is amortised as income or expense over the life of the contract. Any profit or loss arising on
the cancellation or renewal of forward contracts is recognised as income or as expense for the year.
In relation to the forward contracts entered into to hedge the foreign currency risk of the underlying outstanding at the balance sheet
date, the exchange difference is calculated and recorded in accordance with paragraphs 36 and 37 of AS 11. The exchange
difference on such a forward exchange contract is calculated as the difference between the foreign currency amount of the contract
translated at the exchange rate at the reporting date, or the settlement date where the transaction is settled during the reporting year,
and the corresponding foreign currency amount translated at the later of the date of inception of the forward exchange contract and
the last reporting date. Such exchange differences are recognised in the profit and loss account in the reporting year in which the
exchange rates change.
The Group has adopted the principles of AS 30 "Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement" in respect of its derivative
financial instruments excluding embedded derivatives that are not covered by AS 11 "Accounting for the Effects of Changes in
Foreign Exchange Rates" and that relate to a firm commitment or a highly probable forecast transaction. In accordance with AS 30,
such derivative financial instruments, which qualify for cash flow hedge accounting and where Group has met all the conditions of
AS 30, are fair valued at balance sheet date and the resultant gain / loss is credited / debited to the hedging reserve included in the
Reserves and Surplus. This gain / loss would be recorded in profit and loss account when the underlying transactions affect
earnings. Other derivative instruments that relate to a firm commitment or a highly probable forecast transaction and that do not
qualify for hedge accounting have been recorded at fair value at the reporting date and the resultant gain / loss has been credited /
debited to profit and loss account for the year.
Fringe Benefit Tax
The Group provides for and discloses the Fringe Benefit Tax (‘FBT’) as a part of taxes in accordance with the provisions of section
115WC of the Income tax Act, 1961 and the guidance note on FBT issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India. The
Finance Act, 2009 has withdrawn FBT with effect from 1 April 2009.
Income taxes
The current charge for income taxes is calculated in accordance with the relevant tax regulations. Minimum Alternative Tax
(‘MAT’) paid in accordance with the tax laws which gives rise to future economic benefits in the form of adjustments of future
income tax liability, is considered as an asset if there is convincing evidence that the Group will pay normal tax after the tax holiday
period. MAT credit entitlement can be carried forward and utilised for a period as specified in the tax laws of the respective
countries.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognised for the future tax consequences attributable to timing differences that result
between taxable profits and accounting profits. Deferred tax in respect of timing differences which originate during the tax holiday
period but reverse after the tax holiday period is recognised in the period in which the timing differences originate. For this purpose
the timing difference which originates first is considered to reverse first. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the
tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date. The effect on deferred tax assets
and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognised in the period that includes the enactment date. Deferred tax assets on timing
differences are recognised only if there is a reasonable certainty that sufficient future taxable income will be available against which
6
MphasiS Group
such deferred tax assets can be realised. However, deferred tax assets on the timing differences when unabsorbed depreciation and
losses carried forward exist, are recognised only to the extent that there is virtual certainty that sufficient future taxable income will
be available against which such deferred tax assets can be realised. Deferred tax assets are reassessed for the appropriateness of
their respective carrying values at each balance sheet date. The legal entities within the Group offsets, on a year on year basis, the
current and deferred tax assets and liabilities, where it has a legally enforceable right and where it intends to settle such assets and
liabilities on a net basis.
Provisions and contingent liabilities
The Group recognizes provision when there is a present obligation as a result of an obligating event that probably requires an
outflow of resources and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. A disclosure for a contingent liability is
made when there is a possible obligation or a present obligation that may, but probably will not, require an outflow of resources.
Where there is a possible obligation or a present obligation in respect of which the likelihood of outflow of resources is remote, no
provision or disclosure is made.
Provisions for onerous contracts, i.e. contracts where the expected unavoidable costs of meeting the obligations under the contract
exceed the economic benefits expected to be received under it, are recognised when it is probable that an outflow of resources
embodying economic benefits will be required to settle a present obligation as a result of an obligating event, based on a reliable
estimate of such obligation. Provisions are not discounted to its present value and are determined based on best estimate required to
settle the obligation at the balance sheet date. These are reviewed at each balance sheet date and adjusted to reflect the current best
estimates
Earnings per share
The basic earnings per share is computed by dividing the net profit attributable to equity shareholders for the year by the weighted
average number of equity shares outstanding during the year. The number of shares used in computing diluted earnings per share
comprises the weighted average shares considered for deriving basic earnings per share, and also the weighted average number of
equity shares which would have been issued on the conversion of all dilutive potential equity shares. Dilutive potential equity shares
are deemed converted as of the beginning of the year, unless they have been issued at a later date. The diluted potential equity
shares have been adjusted for the proceeds receivable had the shares been actually issued at the average market value of the
outstanding shares. In computing dilutive earnings per share, only potential equity shares that are dilutive and that either reduce
earnings per share or increase loss per share are included.
Stock-based compensation
The Group accounts for stock-based compensation based on the intrinsic value method. ‘Option Discount’ is amortised on a
straight-line basis over the vesting period of the shares issued under Employee Stock Option Plans (‘ESOP’).
‘Option Discount’ means the excess of the market price of the underlying shares as at the date of grant of the options over the
exercise price of the options.
