Diluted earning per share is calculated by dividing net profit attributable to Equity Shareholders (after adjustment for diluted earnings) by average number of weighted Equity Shares outstanding during the year. 14) Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets : A provision is recognized when the Company has a brsent legal obligation as a result of past event and it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation, in respect of which reliable estimate can be made.
