Note on segment information

Business segments

Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise for which discrete financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the Chief Operating Decision Maker (‘CODM’), in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. Operating segments are identified based on the internal organization at the Balance Sheet date. With the objective of internal financial reporting and decision making of the Group, the CODM has reviewed the manner in which the Group views the business risks and returns and monitors its operations. Accordingly, the group has identified business segment which comprises of Banking and Financial Services, Healthcare, Communication, Media and Technology and Diverse Industries.

Revenues and expenses directly attributable to the segments are reported under each reportable segment. The accounting principles used in the preparation of the segment information are consistently applied to record revenue and expenditure in individual business segments.

Assets and liabilities used in the Group’s business are not directly identified to any of the operating segments, as these are used interchangeably between segments. Allocation of such assets and liabilities is not practicable and any forced allocation would not result in any meaningful segregation. Hence assets and liabilities have not been identified to any of the reportable segments by the Group.
