6 Estimation uncertainty relating to the global health pandemic - COVID-19
$\vec{\Omega}$
In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared Covid-19 a global pandemic. Consequent to this, Government of India declared a nations wide lockdown, which has impacted normal business operations of the Company. The Company has resumed its business activities from June 2020, in line with the guidelines issued by the Government authorities, taken steps to strengthen its liquidity position and initiated cost restructuring exercise. Then again second wave of Covid-19 came in the month of Mar-21 which lasted till June-21. In preparation of these financial results, the Company has taken into account internal and external sources of information to assess possible impacts of the pandemic, including but not limited to assessment of liquidity, assessment of recoverable and carrying value of certain assets such as property, plant and equipment, intangible assets, impact on revenues and receivables including unbilled revenue. Majority of customer base of the company are governmental authorities and on account of delay in sanctioning the new proposals, revenue from operations represents declining trend post imposition of lockdown in the first quarter of the current financial year. The impact of Covid-19 pandemic on the overall economic environment being uncertain may affect the underlying assumptions and estimates used to prepare Company's financial results, which may differ from impact considered as on the date of approval of these financial results. Based on current indicators, the company has sufficient liquidity and it expects to recover the carrying value of its assets as stated in Statement of assets and liabilities. The Company has resumed its business activities again from June 2021, in line with the guidelines issued by the Government authorities, taken steps to strengthen its liquidity position and initiated cost restructuring exercise. The Company will continue to monitor any material changes to future economic conditions.

6 Estimation uncertainty relating to the global health pandemic - COVID-19
In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared Covid-19 a global pandemic. Consequent to this, Government of India declared a nations wide lockdown, which has impacted normal business operations of the Company. The Company has resumed its business activities from June 2020, in line with the guidelines issued by the Government authorities, taken steps to strengthen its liquidity position and initiated cost restructuring exercise. Then again second wave of Covid-19 came in the month of Mar-21 which lasted till June-21. In preparation of these financial results, the Company has taken into account internal and external sources of information to assess possible impacts of the pandemic, including but not limited to assessment of liquidity, assessment of recoverable and carrying value of certain assets such as property, plant and equipment, intangible assets, impact on revenues and receivables including unbilled revenue. Majority of customer base of the company are governmental authorities and on account of delay in sanctioning the new proposals, revenue from operations represents declining trend post imposition of lockdown in the first quarter of the current financial year. The impact of Covid-19 pandemic on the overall economic environment being uncertain may affect the underlying assumptions and estimates used to prepare Company's financial results, which may differ from impact considered as on the date of approval of these financial results. Based on current indicators, the company has sufficient liquidity and it expects to recover the carrying value of its assets as stated in Statement of assets and liabilities. The Company has resumed its business activities again from June 2021, in line with the guidelines issued by the Government authorities, taken steps to strengthen its liquidity position and initiated cost restructuring exercise. The Company will continue to monitor any material changes to future economic conditions.
