(c) Financial derivatives hedging transactions:
Pursuant to the announcement issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India dated March
29, 2008 in respect of forward exchange contracts and currency and interest rate swaps, the Company
has applied the Hedge accounting principles set out in the Accounting Standard (AS) 30 ‘Financial
Instruments: Recognition and Measurement’. Accordingly, range forward contracts are marked to market
and the loss aggregating
`
5.09 crores (Previous year
`
15.03 crores) arising consequently on contracts
that were designated and effective as hedges of future cash flows has been recognized directly in the
hedging reserve account. Actual gain or loss on exercise of these range forward contracts or any part
thereof is recognised in the Profit and Loss account. Hedge accounting will be discontinued if the hedging
instrument is sold, terminated or no longer qualifies for hedge accounting.
