DSJ KEEP LEARNING LIMITED (FORMERLY KNOWN AS DSJ COMMUNICATIONS LIMITED)

Annual Report 2021-2022

Dear Shareholders,

For us at DSJ Keep Learning Limited 2022 has been a year of successful growth – we have capitalized on the foundation laid out in 2021, grown our core business, and embedded diverse and fresh perspectives into how we operate. We spent the majority of the year refining our product offerings, building our internal capacity, and taking our products to market. We’ve also had the good fortune of onboarding a new Chief Operating Officer (COO), Mr. Anurup Doshi, to help streamline and manage our operations.

As an organization, we view ourselves as enablers for education – partners that help educational institutions deliver on quality of learning outcomes at scale.

The core-driver of this philosophy is our relentless focus on learner success, where we put the needs of our learners

over everything else.

The higher education space in India comprises over 1,000 universities and 40,000 individual colleges operating at various levels from diploma programs to PhD programs. Yet, there remains significant room for improving the delivery of learning outcomes. For example, the current gross enrollment ratio (GER) remains at 26%, far below the 2030 target of 50% set in the National Education Policy 2020 (NEP). The sharp return of learners into the education ecosystem after the relaxing of lockdown norms, and the rising awareness and demand for industry-ready skills amongst prospective learners has this industry poised for rapid growth in the coming years.

Higher Education – Enabling India’s Higher Educational Institutes

Being true to our stance of enablers for education, DSJ Keep Learning Limited is focused on the following four key areas.

  • Helping institutions augment their curriculum and teaching functions through our learning partners and in-house expertise.

  • Improving student experience by providing services like mentorship, placements.

  • Technology through our flagship SaaS product, keeplearningOS (kOS).

  • Process outsourcing for academic and business functions.

Over the past year, our process outsourcing division has managed the end-to-end admissions processes for nearly 1500+ students.

Our flagship technology product, keeplearningOS (kOS), has been rolled out to four institutions and now meets the needs of 200+ administrators/faculty members and 2300+ students. We have also diversified the functionality of our platform to now meet the needs of institutes across academic administration, student information management, finance, and human resources. As a testament to our product’s ability, kOS is also being used by us to manage our continuing education operations.

The areas of curriculum development and student experience are still in their nascent stage – we expect results for the

same to come out in the upcoming financial year.

Continuing Education – Powering India’s Future Workforce

The demand for continuing education in the country continues to be driven by working professionals who wish to switch or advance their careers and stay relevant given the ever-changing needs of the industry. Current ed-tech providers have largely failed in delivering on learning outcomes; our new-age enablement platform for continuing education, keeplearning. live, differentiates itself by focusing on one key objective – ensuring industry-readiness of learners and learning outcomes of our programs. Over the past one year, we have partnered with the likes of Jagdish Sheth School of Management, INSOFE, True School of Music and Simplilearn, and have brought 100+ learners into the fold of our platform.

5

We have also developed and launched our flagship long-form program, Career Tracks in collaboration with leading academic and industrial partners. We will continue to expand our platform with several long-form and short-form programs to cater to a larger base of learners. At the same time, we will also focus on delivering on the experience and learning outcomes of various learners enrolled on out platform.

Closing Remarks – we have only just begun

With this, my CEO report for 2021 – 2022 comes to an end. I would like to take this opportunity to, first and foremost, thank all our customers, who are the center of everything we do today. Without them, DSJ Keep Learning Limited is just a mere dream. I would also like to thank all our employees - the past one year would not have been possible without their relentless loyalty, efforts, and contributions. Equally important are all our shareholders and business partners, who have and will continue to play a key part in building the future of this company. We hope to live up to all their promises.

It is only fitting to say that that the past one year has been a year of tremendous learning for us – learning that we are most certainly sure will not stop. Last year, we had adopted a vision of enabling human potential through education . The coming year and every other year that follows is going to be all about delivering on the vision we have set out.

Onwards to 2022 – 2023.

Yours sincerely,

Pranav Sanjay Padode Chief Executive Officer DSJ Keep Learning Limited

DSJ KEEP LEARNING LIMITED (FORMERLY KNOWN AS DSJ COMMUNICATIONS LIMITED)

Annual Report 2021-2022

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

INDUSTRIAL OVERVIEW, STRUCTURE AND DEVELOPMENT

The higher education space in India comprises over 1,000 universities and 40,000 individual colleges operating at various levels from diploma programs to PhD programs. Yet, there remains significant room for improving the delivery of learning outcomes. For example, the current gross enrollment ratio (GER) remains at 26%, far below the 2030 target of 50% set in the National Education Policy 2020 (NEP). The sharp return of learners into the education ecosystem after the relaxing of lockdown norms, and the rising awareness and demand for industry-ready skills amongst prospective learners has this industry poised for rapid growth in the coming years.

As an organization, we view ourselves as enablers for education – partners that help educational institutions deliver on quality of learning outcomes at scale. The core-driver of this philosophy is our relentless focus on learner success, where we put the needs of our learners over everything else.

OPPORTUNITY AND THREATS

Higher Education – Enabling India’s Higher Educational Institutes

Being true to our stance of enablers for education, DSJ Keep Learning Limited is focused on the following four key areas.

  • Helping institutions augment their curriculum and teaching functions through our learning partners and in-house expertise.

  • Improving student experience by providing services like mentorship, placements.

  • Technology through our flagship SaaS product, keeplearningOS (kOS).

  • Process outsourcing for academic and business functions.

Over the past year, our process outsourcing division has managed the end-to-end admissions processes for nearly 1500+ students.

Our flagship technology product, keeplearningOS (kOS), has been rolled out to four institutions and now meets the needs of 200+ administrators/faculty members and 2300+ students. We have also diversified the functionality of our platform to now meet the needs of institutes across academic administration, student information management, finance, and human resources. As a testament to our product’s ability, kOS is also being used by us to manage our continuing education operations.

The areas of curriculum development and student experience are still in their nascent stage – we expect results for the

same to come out in the upcoming financial year.

Continuing Education – Powering India’s Future Workforce

Continuing education is defined as education imparted to professionals and university graduates primarily for reskilling, upskilling, or learning for fun. With 50Mn white-collar professionals overall, and 5Mn new professionals added every year, the market in this space is massive.

The demand for continuing education in the country continues to be driven by working professionals who wish to switch or advance their careers and stay relevant given the ever-changing needs of the industry. Current ed-tech providers have largely failed in delivering on learning outcomes; our new-age enablement platform for continuing education, keeplearning. live, differentiates itself by focusing on one key objective – ensuring industry-readiness of learners and learning outcomes of our programs. Over the past one year, we have partnered with the likes of Jagdish Sheth School of Management, INSOFE, True School of Music and Simplilearn, and have brought 100+ learners into the fold of our platform.

We have also developed and launched our flagship long-form program, Career Tracks in collaboration with leading academic and industrial partners. We will continue to expand our platform with several long-form and short-form programs to cater to a larger base of learners. At the same time, we will also focus on delivering on the experience and learning outcomes of various learners enrolled on out platform.

51

Having laid out this opportunity, we also recognize that the education ecosystem is ripe with competitors, both large and small. In the short-term, our competition will span higher education e-learning providers, SaaS start-ups and large techcompanies that build tech-products for educational institutes, service providers for higher education institutes , and newage universities with lean and efficient operations. While we do acknowledge that there will be competitive threats from such players, our focus on keeping learner success at the heart of what we do will continue to set us apart from the rest.

FINANCE AND ACCOUNTS

The following financial review is intended to convey the management’s perspective on the financial performance of the company at the end of the financial year 2021-22.

The financial statements have been prepared in compliance with the requirements of the Companies Act, 2013 and generally accepted Accounting Principles in India.

FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE

Profit/(Loss) before taxation (PBT) for the current financial year 2021-22 is Rs. 97.78 lacs as compared to Loss of Rs. 406.81 lacs for the previous year. During the year, other income in the year under review was Rs. 13.11 lacs as compared to Rs. 17.63 lacs in previous year. Company Fixed Assets viz. Property, Plant and Equipment were valued at Rs. 36.83 lacs at the end of the financial year compared to Rs 0.18 lacs in the previous year.

MARKET ATTRACTIVENESS / OUTLOOK

The company will continue to grow its core business and take it to larger markets. We will leverage the opportunity of serving as enablers of education for education institutes – of helping them deliver on quality of learning outcomes at scale. Within higher education, our process outsourcing vertical will focus on refining the admissions processes of our partner institutes and driving up the number of admissions we deliver on. We will diversify the product offering of our SaaS platform, keeplearningOS, and launch it across various other institutes. Within continuing education, our career enablement platform, keeplearning.live, will now include newer program offerings and serve a broader base of learners. With the highest standards of operations and a strong leadership team, we are poised to unlock future growth.

RISKS AND CONCERN

The Company has an adequate Risk Management System, and it faces the risk of competition from local players in the cities it expands. This risk is addressed by building a brand and processes to provide consumer-centric services and quality education. Also, there is a lot of IP in terms of technology that is being developed under keeplearning, which creates a moat between us and our competitors.

INTERNAL CONTROL SYSTEM AND THEIR ADEQUACY

The Company has a proper and adequate system of internal control to ensure that all the assets are safeguarded from loss, damage, or disposition. The Company has an independent Audit system to monitor the entire operations and the Audit Committee monitors the financial statements to ensure that transactions are adequately authorized and recorded and that they are reported correctly. The Board of Directors considers internal controls as adequate as it regularly reviews the findings and recommendations of internal audits.

SEGEMENT

The Primary Segment that your Company Operates is in Education activities and their related products.

DISCUSSION ON FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE CONCERNING OPERATIONAL PERFORMANCE

The financial statements have been prepared in compliance with the requirements of the Companies Act, 2013 and generally accepted Accounting Principles in India.

DSJ KEEP LEARNING LIMITED (FORMERLY KNOWN AS DSJ COMMUNICATIONS LIMITED)

Annual Report 2021-2022

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT

To the Members of DSJ Keep Learning Limited (Formerly Known as DSJ Communications Limited)

Report on the Standalone Financial Statements

Opinion

We have audited the standalone financial statements of M/s. DSJ Keep Learning Limited (Formerly Known as DSJ Communications Limited) (“the Company”), which comprise the balance sheet as at 31[st] March 2022, and the statement of Profit and Loss (Including Other Comprehensive Income), Statement of changes in Equity and Statement of Cash flows for the year ended on that date, and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information (hereinafter referred to as “the standalone financial statements”).

In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, the aforesaid standalone financial statements give the information required by the Companies Act, 2013 (the ”Act”) in the manner so required and give a true and fair view, in conformity with the Indian Accounting Standards prescribed under Section 133 of the Act read with the Companies (Indian Accounting Standard) Rules, 2015, as amended (“Ind As”) and the accounting principles generally accepted in India, of the state of affairs of the Company as at 31[st] March, 2022, its profit, total comprehensive income, changes in equity and its cash flows for the year ended on that date.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing (SAs) specified under section 143(10) of the Companies Act, 2013. Our responsibilities under those Standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the Code of Ethics issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India together with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements under the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013 and the Rules made thereunder, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements and the Code of Ethics. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion on the standalone financial statements.

Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

Information other than the financial statements & Auditor’s report thereon

The Company’s management and Board of Directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Company’s annual report, but does not include the standalone financial statements and our auditors’ report thereon.

Our opinion on the standalone financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance or conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audit of the standalone financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the standalone financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

Management’s Responsibility for the Standalone Financial Statements

The Company’s Board of Directors is responsible for the matters stated in section 134(5) of the Companies Act, 2013 (“the Act”) with respect to the preparation of these standalone financial statements that give a true and fair view of the financial position, financial performance, changes in equity and cash flows of the Company in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, including the accounting Standards specified under section 133 of the Act. This responsibility also includes maintenance of adequate accounting records in accordance with the provisions of the Act for safeguarding of the assets of the Company and for preventing and detecting frauds and other irregularities; selection and application of appropriate accounting policies; making judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls, that were operating effectively for ensuring the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, relevant to the preparation and presentation of the financial statements that give a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

The Board of Directors is also responsible for overseeing the Company’s financial reporting process.

Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Standalone Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with SAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

  • Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

  • Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances. Under section 143(3)(i) of the Companies Act, 2013, we are also responsible for expressing our opinion on whether the company has adequate internal financial controls system in place and the operating effectiveness of such controls.

  • Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.

56

DSJ KEEP LEARNING LIMITED (FORMERLY KNOWN AS DSJ COMMUNICATIONS LIMITED)

Annual Report 2021-2022

  • Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.

  • Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the standalone financial statements that, individually or in aggregate, makes it probable that the economic decisions of a reasonable knowledgeable user of the standalone financial statements may be influenced. We consider quantitative materiality & qualitative factors in (i) planning the scope of our audit and in evaluating the results of our work; and (ii) to evaluate the effect of any identified misstatements in the standalone financial statements.

We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.

From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the standalone financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

DSJ KEEP LEARNING LIMITED (FORMERLY KNOWN AS DSJ COMMUNICATIONS LIMITED)

Annual Report 2021-2022

Annexure - B to the Independent Auditor’s Report

Report on the Internal Financial Controls under Clause (i) of Sub-section 3 of Section 143 of the Companies Act, 2013 (“the Act”) referred to in paragraph 2 (f) on Report on Other Legal and Regulatory Requirements of our report.

Opinion

We have audited the internal financial controls over financial reporting with reference to the standalone financial statements of M/s. DSJ Keep Learning Limited (Formerly Known as DSJ Communications Limited) (“the Company”) as of 31[st ] March, 2022 in conjunction with our audit of the standalone financial statements of the Company for the year ended on that date.

In our opinion, the Company has, in general, in all material respects, an adequate internal financial controls system over financial reporting and such internal financial controls over financial reporting were found operating effectively as at March 31, 2022, based on the internal control over financial reporting criteria established by the Company. However the same needs to be further improved and formally documented in view of the size of the company and nature of its business and regulatory requirements, considering the essential components of internal control stated in the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India.

Management’s Responsibility for Internal Financial Controls

The Company’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining internal financial controls based on the internal control over financial reporting criteria established by the Company considering the essential components of internal control stated in the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (‘ICAI’). These responsibilities include the design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls that were operating effectively for ensuring the orderly and efficient conduct of its business, including adherence to company’s policies, the safeguarding of its assets, the prevention and detection of frauds and errors, the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, and the timely preparation of reliable financial information, as required under the Companies Act, 2013.

Auditors’ Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal financial controls over financial reporting based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting (the “Guidance Note”) and the Standards on Auditing, issued by ICAI and deemed to be prescribed under section 143(10) of the Companies Act, 2013, to the extent applicable to an audit of internal financial controls. Those Standards and the Guidance Note require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether adequate internal financial controls over financial reporting was established and maintained and if such controls operated effectively in all material respects.

Our audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the adequacy of the internal financial controls system over financial reporting and their operating effectiveness. Our audit of internal financial controls over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal financial controls over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the Company’s internal financial controls system over financial reporting.

Meaning of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting

A company’s internal financial control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal financial control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly

63

reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Inherent Limitations of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting

Because of the inherent limitations of internal financial controls over financial reporting, including the possibility of collusion or improper management override of controls, material misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. Also, projections of any evaluation of the internal financial controls over financial reporting to future periods are subject to the risk that the internal financial control over financial reporting may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

DSJ KEEP LEARNING LIMITED (FORMERLY KNOWN AS DSJ COMMUNICATIONS LIMITED)

Annual Report 2021-2022

Note No 1

Significant Accounting Policies and notes on Accounts forming An Integral Part of Accounts for the year ended 31[st] March 2022.

a) Statement of Compliance:

The standalone financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Indian Accounting Standards(Ind AS) as per the Companies(Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 notifies under Section 133 of Companies Act, 2013 (the “Act”) and other relevant provisions of the Act.

These standalone financial statements have been prepared for the Company as a going concern on the basis of relevant Ind AS that are effective at the Company’s annual report date, 31[st] March, 2022. These standalone financial statements were authorized for issuance by the Company’s Board of Directors on 30[th] May, 2022.

b) Basis of preparation and presentation:

These financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, except for certain financial instruments which are measured at fair values at the end of each reporting period, as explained in the accounting policies below. Historical cost is generally based on the fair value of the consideration given in exchange for goods and services. Fair value is the price which that would be received or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.

Accounting policies have been consistently applied except where a newly issued accounting standard is initially adopted or a revision to an existing accounting standard requires a change in the accounting policy hitherto in use.

c) Use of Estimate:

The preparation of financial statements, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the results of operations during the reporting period end. Although these estimates are based upon management’s best knowledge of current events and actions, actual results could differ from these estimates.

Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimates are revised and future periods are affected. The management believes that the estimates used in preparation of the financial statements are prudent and reasonable. Future results could differ due to these estimates and differences between actual results and estimates are recognized in the periods in which the results are known/materialize.

Key source of estimation of uncertainty at the date of the financial statements, which may cause a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year, is in respect of Fair valuation of financial instruments, useful lives of property, plant and equipment, valuation of deferred tax Assets & liabilities and provisions and contingent liabilities.

Useful lives of property, plant and equipment

The Company reviews the useful life of property, plant and equipment at the end of each reporting period. This reassessment may result in change in depreciation expense in future periods.

Valuation of deferred tax assets & Liabilities:

The Company reviews the carrying amount of deferred tax assets & Liabilities at the end of each reporting period.

Provisions and contingent liabilities:

Provisions are recognized when the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events; it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation; and the amount can be reliably estimated.

Provisions are measured at the present value of the expenditures expected to be required to settle the obligation using a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money (if the impact of discounting is significant) and the risks specific to the obligation. The increase in the provision due to unwinding of discount over passage of time is recognized as finance cost. Provisions are reviewed at each reporting date and adjusted to reflect the current best estimate. If it is no longer probable that an outflow of economic resources will be required to settle the obligation, the provision is reversed.

69

A provision for onerous contracts is recognized when the expected benefits to be derived by the company from a contract are lower than the unavoidable cost of meeting its obligations under the contract. The provision is measured at the present value of the expected net cost of continuing with the contract. Before a provision is established, the company recognizes any impairment loss on the assets associated with that contract.

A disclosure for a contingent liability is made where there is a possible obligation that arises from past events and the existence of which will be confirmed only by the occurrence or nonoccurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of the company or a present obligation that arises from the past events where it is either not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation or a reliable estimate of the amount cannot be made. Contingent liabilities are not recognized in the financial statements. A contingent asset is neither recognized nor disclosed in the financial statements. Fair value measurements and valuation processes Some of the company’s assets and liabilities are measured at fair value for financial reporting purposes. The company has obtained independent fair valuation for financial instruments wherever necessary to determine the appropriate valuation techniques and inputs for fair value measurements. In some cases the fair value of financial instruments is done internally by the management of the Company using market-observable inputs. In estimating the fair value of an asset or a liability, the company uses market-observable data to the extent it is available. Where Level 1 inputs are not available, the company engages third party qualified valuers to perform the valuation. The qualified external valuers establish the appropriate valuation techniques and inputs to the model. The external valuers report to the management of the Company their findings for every reporting period to explain the cause of fluctuations in the fair value of the assets and liabilities.

The external valuers report to the management of the Company their findings for every reporting period to explain the cause of fluctuations in the fair value of the assets and liabilities.

d) Property Plant & Equipment and Intangible Assets.

Property, plant and equipment held for use in provision of services or for administrative purposes are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation/amortization less accumulated impairment, if any. The cost of Property, Plant & Equipment comprises its purchase price net of any trade discounts and rebates, any import duties and other taxes (other than those subsequently recoverable from the tax authorities), any directly attributable expenditure on making the asset ready for its intended use, and interest on borrowings attributable to acquisition of qualifying Property, Plant & Equipment up to the date the asset is ready for its intended use.

Depreciation is recognized (other than on capital work-in-progress) on a Written down value over the estimated useful lives of assets in respect of property plant & equipment at the rates prescribed under Schedule II of Companies Act, 2013. Depreciation on assets acquired/ purchased, sold/discarded during the year is provided on a pro-rata basis from the date of each addition till the date of sale/retirement.

An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognized upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset. Any gain or loss arising on the disposal or retirement of an item of property, plant and equipment, determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset, is recognized in the Statement of Profit or Loss.

Intangible assets with finite useful lives that are acquired separately are carried at cost less accumulated amortization. Amortization is recognized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives or 10 years, which reflects the pattern in which the asset’s economic benefits are consumed. The estimated useful life, the amortization method and the amortization period are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with effect of any change in estimate being accounted for on a prospective basis.

An intangible asset is derecognized on disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from use or disposal. Gains or losses arising from de-recognition of an intangible asset, measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset, and are recognised in the profit or loss when the asset is derecognised.

Annual Report 2021-2022

e) Impairment of tangible and intangible assets other than goodwill:

At the end of each reporting period, the Company reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible and intangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). When it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Company estimates the recoverable amount of the cash generating unit to which the asset belongs.

Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs of disposal and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset for which the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted.

If the recoverable amount of an asset (or cash-generating unit) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset (or cash-generating unit) is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognized immediately in profit and loss.

When an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset (or a cash-generating unit) is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but so that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset (or cash-generating unit) in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognized immediately in profit and loss.

f) Revenue Recognition

Revenue under a contract with the customer is recognized only when all of the following criteria are met:

  • (i) The parties to the contract have approved the contract (in writing, orally or in accordance with other customary business practices) and are committed to perform their respective obligation;

  • (ii) The Company can identify each party’s rights regarding the goods or services to be transferred;

  • (iii) The Company can identify the payment terms for the goods or services to be transferred

  • (iv) The contract has commercial substance (i.e. the risk, timing or amount of the entity’s future cash flows is expected to change as a result of the contract); and

  • (v) It is probable that the Company will collect the consideration to which it will be entitled in exchange for the goods or services that will be transferred to the customer. In evaluating whether the collectability of an amount of consideration is probable, the Company considers only the customers ability and intention to pay that amount of consideration when it is due.

Revenue from finder fees is recognized based on achieving certain milestones as may be specifically agreed in the contracts with the customers or in generally in the following manner:

  1. 15% based on Application fees Received from the students by the customer

  2. 18% based on Registration Fees Paid from the students by the customer

  3. 30% based on payment of 1[st] fees installment from the students by the customer

  4. 37% based on the payment of final fees installment from the students by the customer

Revenue is measured on accrual basis in accordance with substance of the agreement, which is the consideration, adjusted for volume discounts, drop out of students, price concessions, if any, as specified in the contracts with customers. Revenue excludes taxes collected from customers on behalf of the government. Due to the short nature of credit period given to customers, there is no financing component in the contract.

Use of significant judgments in revenue recognition:

The Company’s contract with customers could include promises to transfer products, deliverables and services to a customer. The Company assesses the products/deliverables/services promised under a contract and identifies distinct performance obligations in the contract. Identification of distinct performance obligation involves judgment to determine the deliverables and the ability of the customer to benefit independently from such deliverables.

Dividend and interest income:

Dividend income from investment is recognized when the company’s right to receive payment has been established.

71

Interest income from a financial asset is recognized when it is probable that the economic benefit will flow to the Company and the amount of income can be measured reliably. Interest income is accrued on time basis, by reference to the principal outstanding and at the effective interest rate applicable.

g) Classifcation Of Assets and Liabilities into Current / Non – Current

For the Purpose of Balance Sheet, an asset is classified as current if:

  • It is expected to be realized, or is intended to be sold or consumed, in the normal operating cycle; or

  • It is held primarily for the purpose of trading; or

  • It is expected to realize the asset within twelve months after the reporting period; or

  • The asset is a cash or cash equivalent unless it is restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period.

All other assets are classified as non-current.

Similarly, a liability is classified as current if:

  • It is expected to be settled in the normal operating cycle; or

  • It is held primarily for the purpose of trading; or

  • It is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period; or

  • The Company does not have an unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period. Terms of a liability that could result in its settlement by the issue of equity instruments at the option of the counterparty does not affect this classification.

All other liabilities are classified as non-current.

h) Leases

A contract is, or contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration.

Company as a Lessee

The Company recognizes right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term at the lease commencement date. The cost of the right of-use asset measured at inception shall comprise of the amount of the initial measurement of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received, plus any initial direct costs incurred and an estimate of costs to be incurred by the lessee in dismantling and removing the underlying asset or restoring the underlying asset or site on which it is located. The right-of-use assets is subsequently measured at cost less any accumulated depreciation, accumulated impairment losses, if any and adjusted for any re-measurement of the lease liability. The right-of-use assets are depreciated using the straight-line method from the commencement date over the shorter of lease term or useful life of right-of-use asset. The estimated useful lives of right-of-use assets are determined on the same basis as those of property, plant and equipment. Right of-use assets are tested for impairment whenever there is any indication that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. Impairment loss, if any, is recognized in the statement of profit and loss.

The Company measures the lease liability at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at the commencement date of the lease. The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease, if that rate can be readily determined. If that rate cannot be readily determined, the company uses incremental borrowing rate. The lease payments shall include fixed payments, variable lease payments, residual value guarantees, exercise price of a purchase option where the company is reasonably certain to exercise that option and payments of penalties for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the lessee exercising an option to terminate the lease. The lease liability is subsequently re-measured by increasing the carrying amount to reflect interest on the lease liability, reducing the carrying amount to reflect the lease payments made and re-measuring the carrying amount to reflect any reassessment or lease modifications or to reflect revised in-substance fixed lease payments.

The Company recognizes the amount of the re-measurement of lease liability due to modification as an adjustment to the right-of-use asset and statement of profit and loss depending upon the nature of modification. Where the carrying

72

DSJ KEEP LEARNING LIMITED (FORMERLY KNOWN AS DSJ COMMUNICATIONS LIMITED)

Annual Report 2021-2022

amount of the right-of-use asset is reduced to zero and there is a further reduction in the measurement of the lease liability, the Company recognizes any remaining amount of the re-measurement in statement of profit and loss.

The Company has elected not to apply the requirements of Ind AS 116 Leases to short term leases of all assets that have a lease term of 12 months or less and leases for which the underlying asset is of low value. The lease payments associated with these leases are recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

i)

Employee Benefts

(i) Defned Contribution Plan:

Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit schemes viz. Company’s Provident Fund Scheme and Superannuation Fund are recognised as an expense when the employees have rendered the service entitling them to the contribution.

(ii) Defned Beneft Plan:

For defined benefit retirement benefit plans, the cost of providing benefits is determined using the projected unit credit method, with actuarial valuations being carried out at the end of each annual reporting period. Remeasurement, comprising actuarial gains and losses, the effect of the changes to the asset ceiling (if applicable) and the return on plan assets (excluding interest), is reflected immediately in the statement of financial position with a charge or credit recognised in other comprehensive income in the period in which they occur.

Remeasurement recognised in other comprehensive income is reflected immediately in retained earnings and will not be reclassified to profit or loss. Past service cost is recognised in profit or loss in the period of a plan amendment. Net interest is calculated by applying the discount rate at the beginning of the period to the net defined benefit liability or asset. Defined benefit costs are categorised as follows:

  • service cost (including current service cost, past service cost, as well as gains and losses on curtailments and settlements);

  • net interest expense or income; and

  • remeasurement.

(1) Gratuity:

The Company has an obligation towards gratuity, a defined benefit retirement plan covering eligible employees. The plan provides for a lump sum payment to vested employees at retirement, death while in employment or on termination of employment of an amount equivalent to 15/26 days salary payable for each completed year of service. Vesting occurs upon completion of five years of service. The Company accounts for the liability for gratuity benefits payable in future based on an independent actuarial valuation. The Company has taken a Group Gratuity cum Life Assurance Scheme with Life Insurance Corporation for future payment of gratuity to the eligible employees.

(2) Compensated Absences:

The Employees of the company are required to utilize their compensated absences during the financial year itself. The company neither provides for encashment nor accumulation of unutilized compensated expenses.

j) Taxation

Income tax expense comprises current tax expense and the net change in the deferred tax asset or liability during the year. Current and deferred tax are recognised in profit or loss, except when they relate to items that are recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case, the current and deferred tax are also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, respectively. Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.

Current income tax

The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from ‘profit before tax’ as reported in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income/statement of profit or loss because of items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and items that are never taxable or deductible.

73

The Company’s current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.

Deferred income taxes

Deferred income tax is recognized using the balance sheet approach. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for deductible and taxable temporary differences arising between the tax base of assets and liabilities and their carrying amount, except when the deferred income tax arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss at the time of the transaction.

Deferred income tax asset are recognized to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences and the carry forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilised. The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred income tax asset to be utilised.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using substantively enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which the temporary differences are expected to be received or settled.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when they relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority and the relevant entity intends to settle its current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis.

k) Financial Instruments

Financial assets and liabilities are recognized when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Financial assets and liabilities are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities (other than financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss) are added to or deducted from the fair value measured on initial recognition of financial asset or financial liability.

Cash and cash equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid financial instruments, which are readily convertible into known amounts of cash that are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value and having original maturities of three months or less from the date of purchase, to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents consist of balances with banks which are unrestricted for withdrawal and usage.

Financial Assets at Amortized Cost

Financial assets are subsequently measured at amortized cost if these financial assets are held within a business whose objective is to hold these assets in order to collect contractual cash flows and the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

Financial assets at Fair Value Through proft and Loss ( FVTPL)

Financial assets at FVTPL are measured at fair value at the end of each reporting period, with any gains or losses arising on re-measurement recognized in profit and loss. The net gain or loss recognized in profit and loss incorporates any dividend or interest earned on the financial asset and is included in the ’Other Income / Other expenses’ line item. Dividend on financial assets at FVTPL is recognized when the Company’s right to receive the dividends is established, it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the dividend will flow to the entity and the amount of dividend can be measured reliably.

Financial assets at Fair Value Through other comprehensive income ( FVTOCI)

Financial assets at FVTOCI are measured at fair value through other comprehensive income if these financial assets are held within a business whose objective is to hold these assets in order to collect contractual cash flows and the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding and selling financial assets.

The company has made an irrevocable election to present subsequent change in the fair value of Debt instruments not held for trading in other comprehensive income.

74

DSJ KEEP LEARNING LIMITED (FORMERLY KNOWN AS DSJ COMMUNICATIONS LIMITED)

Annual Report 2021-2022

Reclassifcation of Financial Assets

The Company determines classification of financial assets and liabilities on initial recognition. After initial recognition, no reclassification is made for financial assets which are equity instruments and financial liabilities. For financial assets which are debt instruments, a reclassification is made only if there is a change in the business model for managing those assets. Changes to the business model are expected to be infrequent. The Company’s senior management determines change in the business model as a result of external or internal changes which are significant to the company’s operations. Such changes are evident to external parties. A change in the business model occurs when a company either begins or ceases to perform an activity that is significant to its operations. If the Company reclassifies financial assets, it applies the reclassification prospectively from the reclassification date which is the first day of the immediately next reporting period following the change in business model. The Company does not restate any previously recognized gains, losses (including impairment gains and losses) or interest.

Impairment of fnancial assets

The Company applies the expected credit loss model for recognizing impairment loss on financial assets measured at amortized cost, lease receivables, trade receivables, other contractual rights to receive cash or other financial asset, and financial guarantees not designated as at FVTPL

For trade receivables or any contractual rights to receive cash or another financial assets that results from transactions that are within the scope of Ind AS 18, the Company always measures their allowances at an amount equal to lifetime expected credit losses.

Further, for the purpose of measuring lifetime expected credit loss allowance for trade receivable, the Company has used a practical expedient as permitted under Ind AS 109. This expected credit loss allowance is computed based on a provision matrix which takes into account historical credit loss experience and adjusted for forward-looking information.

Derecognition of fnancial assets

The Company de-recognizes a financial asset when contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire, or when it transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the asset to another party. If the Company neither transfers nor retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership and continues to control the transferred asset, the Company recognizes its retained interest in the asset and an associated liability for amounts it may have to pay. If the Company retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of a transferred financial asset, the Company continues to recognize the financial asset and also recognizes a collateralized borrowing for the proceeds received.

Foreign exchange gains and losses

The fair value of financial assets denominated in a foreign currency is determined in that foreign currency and translated at the spot rate at the end of each reporting period.

For foreign currency denominated financial assets measured at amortized cost and FVTPL, exchange differences are recognized in profit and loss, except for those which are designated as hedging instruments in a hedging relationship.

Financial Liabilities

Financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortized cost or at FVTPL

Financial liabilities at FVTPL

Financial liabilities such as derivative that is not designated and effective as a hedging instrument are classified as at FVTPL.

Financial liabilities at FVTPL are stated at fair value, with any gains or losses arising on re-measurement recognized in profit and loss. The net gain or loss recognized in profit and loss is included in the ‘Other Income/ Other expenses’ line item.

Financial liabilities subsequently measured at amortized cost

Financial liabilities that are not held for trading and are not designated as at FVTPL are measured at cost.

Foreign exchange gains and losses

For financial liabilities that are denominated in a foreign currency and are measured at amortized cost at the end of each reporting period, the foreign exchange gains or losses are determined based on the amortized cost of the instruments and are recognized in ‘Other Income / Other Expenses’.

75

The fair value of financial liabilities denominated in foreign currency is determined in that foreign currency and translated at the spot rate at the end of the reporting period. For financial liabilities that are measured at FVTPL, the foreign exchange component forms part of the fair value gains or losses and is recognized in profit and loss.

Derecognition of fnancial liabilities

The Company de-recognizes financial liabilities when, and only when, the Company’s obligations are discharged, cancelled or have expired.

Equity instruments

An equity instrument is a contract that evidences residual interest in the assets of the company after deducting all of its liabilities. Equity instruments recognised by the Company are recognised at the proceeds received net off direct issue cost.

Earnings Per Share (EPS)

The Company reports basic and diluted earnings per share in accordance with Ind AS 33 on Earnings per share. Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing the net profit or loss for the period by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing the net profit or loss for the period by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period as adjusted for the effects of all diluted potential equity shares except where the results are anti-dilutive.

Share Capital

Ordinary Shares

Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs, if any, directly attributable to the issue of ordinary shares are recognized as a deduction from other equity, net of any tax effects.

Fair Value Measurement

Fair value is the price that would be received from the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value measurement is based on the presumption that the transaction to sell an asset or transfer the liability takes place either:

  • in the principle market for the asset or liability

  • in the absence of principle market, in the most advantageous market for the asset or liability.

  • The principle or the most advantageous market must be accessible by the Company.

The fair value of an asset or a liability is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, assuming that market participants act in their economic best interest.

The fair value measurement of a non-financial asset takes into account a market participant’s ability to generate economic benefits by using the asset in its highest and best use or by selling it to another market participant that would use the asset in its highest and best use.

The Company uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available to measure fair value, maximizing the use of relevant observable inputs and minimizing the use of unobservable inputs.

All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the financial statements are categorized within the fair value hierarchy, described as follows, based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole:

  • Level 1 – Quoted (Unadjusted) Market prices in active markets for incidental assets or liabilities

- Level 2 –Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is directly or indirectly observable

  • Level 3 – Valuation Techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement

  • is unobservable.

For assets and liabilities that are recognized in the financial statements on a recurring basis, the Company determines whether transfers that have occurred between levels in the hierarchy by re-assessing categorization (based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole) at the end of each reporting period.

76

DSJ KEEP LEARNING LIMITED (FORMERLY KNOWN AS DSJ COMMUNICATIONS LIMITED)

Annual Report 2021-2022

Determination of Fair Value

1) Financial Assets - Debt Instruments at amortized cost

After initial measurement the financial assets are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the Effective Interest Rate (EIR) method. Amortized cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or cost that are an integral part of the EIR.

2) Financial Assets - Debt Instruments at Fair Value through Other Comprehensive Income (FVTOCI)

Measured initially as well as at each reporting date at fair value. Fair value movements are recognized in the Other Comprehensive Income (OCI). On derecognition of the asset, cumulative gain or loss previously recognized in OCI is reclassified from the equity to P&L.

3) Debt instruments & derivatives at Fair Value through Profit or Loss (FVTPL)

FVTPL is a residual category for debt instruments. Any debt instrument, which does not meet the criteria for categorization as at amortized cost or as FVTOCI, is classified as at FVTPL.

4) Equity Instruments at Fair Value through Other Comprehensive Income

On initial recognition, the Company can make an irrevocable election (on an instrument-by-instrument basis) to present the subsequent changes in fair value in ither comprehensive income pertaining to investments in equity instruments. These elected inbestments are initially measured at fair value plus transaction costs. Subsequently, they are measured at fair value with gains / losses arising from changes in fair value recognized in other comprehensive income. This cumulative gain or loss is not reclassified to profit or loss on disposal of the investments.

5) Financial Liabilities

Financial liabilities are classified, at initial recognition, as financial liabilities at fair value through profit & loss, loans and borrowings, payables, or as derivatives designated as hedging instruments in an effective hedge, as appropriate.

All financial liabilities are recognized initially at fair value and, in the case of loans and borrowings and payables, net of directly attributable transaction costs. The Companies financial liabilities include trade and other payables, loans and borrowings including bank overdrafts and derivative financial instruments.

Subsequent Measurement

Fair value through Proft & Loss

Financial liabilities at fair value through profit & loss include financial liabilities held for trading and financial liabilities designated upon initial recognition as at fair value through profit or loss. All changes in fair value of such liabilities are recognised in statement of profit or loss.

Loans and Borrowings

After initial recognition, interest-bearing loans and borrowings are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the EIR method. Gains and losses are recognized in profit or loss when the liabilities are derecognized as well as through the EIR amortization process. The EIR amortization is included as finance costs in the statement of profit and loss.

Dividend

Dividend on share is recorded as liability on the date of approval by the shareholders and is shown as a reduction from retained earnings under Other Equity.

Segment Reporting

The Company identifies primary segments based on the dominant source, nature of risks and returns and the internal organisation and management structure. The operating segments are the segments for which separate financial information is available and for which operating profit / loss amounts are evaluated regularly by the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance.

The accounting policies adopted for segment reporting are in line with the accounting policies of the Company. Segment revenue, segment expenses, segment assets and segment liabilities have been identified to segments on the basis of their relationship to the operating activities of the segment. Inter-segment revenue is accounted on the basis of transactions which are primarily determined based on market / fair value factors. Revenue, expenses, assets and liabilities which relate to the Company as a whole and are not allocableto segments on reasonable basis have been included under “unallocated revenue / expenses / assets / liabilities”.

Level 1 - Inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 - Inputs are other than quoted prices included within level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e., as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices)

Level 3 - Inputs are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs). Fair value are determined in whole or in part using a valuation model based on assumption that are neither supported by prices from observable current market transaction in the same instrument nor are they based on available market data. The Investments included in level 3 of fair value hierarchy have been valued using the cost approach to arrive at their fair value. The cost of unquoted investments approximates the fair value because there is a wide range of possible fair value measurements and the cost represents estimate of fair value within the range.

The Following table summarizes fair value hierarchy of financial assets measured at fair value on recurring basis:
