The automotive world is on the cusp of revolutionary change.
Driven by unprecedented advances in technology, these
changes are transforming the industry, impacting every
aspect − from product to processes and from manufacturing
to marketing.
To remain relevant and sustain the momentum of growth amidst these defining
changes, organisations need to re-think, re-align and re-structure their strategy,
capabilities and business models.
At Greaves Cotton, we believe that every change brings with it new opportunities.

Responsibility Report STATEMENTS SUBSIDIARY COMPANIES FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. General Information:
Greaves Cotton Limited (the ‘Company’) is engaged in manufacturing of engines, engine applications and trading of power tillers,
spares related to engines and infrastructure equipment etc. The Company has manufacturing facilities in the states of Maharashtra
and Tamil Nadu. The products are mainly sold in India with some export to Middle East, Africa & South East Asia Region. The Company
has one direct and one indirect subsidiary.
The company is public limited company incorporated and domiciled in India. The address of its corporate office is 3rd Floor, Motilal
Oswal Tower, Junction of Gokhale Road & Sayani Road, Prabhadevi, Mumbai – 400 025.
The Financial statements for the year ended 31st March 2018 were approved by the Board of Directors and authorised for issue on
3rd May 2018.
Historical cost is generally based on the fair value of the consideration given in exchange for goods and services.
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between
market participants at the measurement date, regardless of whether that price is directly observable or estimated using another
valuation technique. In estimating the fair value of an asset or a liability, the Company takes into account the characteristics of
the asset or liability if market participants would take those characteristics into account when pricing the asset or liability at the
measurement date.
In addition, for financial reporting purposes, fair value measurements are categorised into Level 1, 2, or 3 based on the
degree to which the inputs to the fair value measurements are observable and the significance of the inputs to the fair value
measurement in its entirety, which are described as follows:
• Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access
at the measurement date;
• Level 2 inputs are inputs, other than quoted prices included within Level 1, that are observable for the asset or liability,
either directly or indirectly; and
• Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.
Non-current assets classified as held for sale are measured at the lower of their carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell.
Consequent to the introduction of Goods and Service Tax (GST) with effect from 1st July 2017, Central Excise, Value Added Tax
(VAT) etc. have been subsumed into GST. In accordance with Ind-AS 18 on Revenue and Schedule III of the Companies Act, 2013,
unlike Excise Duties, levies like GST, VAT etc. are not part of Revenue.
Interest income from a financial asset is recognised 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.
Exchange differences on monetary items are recognised in the statement of profit and loss in the year in which they arise except
for exchange differences arising on marking forward contracts to market rates are recognised in the statement of profit and loss
in the year in which they arise and the premium paid/ received is accounted as expenses/ income over the period of contract.

and the Central Provident Fund under the State Pension scheme. There are no other obligations other than the
contribution payable to the Regional Provident Fund Commissioner and the Central Provident Fund under the State
Pension scheme.
Contribution to Superannuation Fund and National Pension Scheme, a defined contribution scheme, is made at pre-
determined rates to the Superannuation Fund managed by Life Insurance Corporation and various asset management
companies under National Pension Scheme and is charged to the statement of profit and loss. There are no other
obligations other than the contribution payable to the Superannuation Fund & National Pension Scheme.
2.8. Taxation:
2.8.1. Current 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 and loss because of items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years
and items that are never taxable or deductible. The Company’s current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been
enacted by the end of the reporting period.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent
that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.
Deferred tax liabilities and assets are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the year in which the
liability is settled or the asset realised, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted
by the end of the reporting year.
Depreciation on fixed assets is provided under the straight line method over the useful life of the assets. Extra shift depreciation
is provided based on number of shifts for which the plant has worked. Leasehold land is amortised over the primary period of
the lease. Leasehold building improvements are written off over the period of lease or their estimated useful life, whichever
is lower, on a straight line basis. Residual value of the assets is estimated at 5% of cost. The useful lives of the assets of the
Company are as follows:
Asset Useful lives
Leasehold land Over lease period
Leasehold improvements Over lease period
Buildings 30 years
Plant & equipment 15 years
Office equipment 5 years
Furniture and fixtures 10 years
Vehicles 8 years
When an asset is scrapped or otherwise disposed off, the cost and related depreciation are removed from the books and the
resultant profit or loss (including capital profit), if any, is reflected in the statement of profit and loss.
The estimated useful life and residual value is reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of any changes in
estimate being accounted for on a prospective basis.
An investment property is de-recognised upon disposal or when the investment property is permanently withdrawn from use
and no future economic benefits are expected from the disposal. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of the property
(calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in the
statement of profit and loss in the year in which the property is de-recognised.
Investment property owned by the Company is depreciated under the straight line method over its estimated useful life of 30
years.
Intangible assets with finite useful lives that are acquired separately or own developed are carried at cost less
accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses. Amortisation is recognised on a straight-line basis over

their estimated useful lives. The estimated useful life and residual value is reviewed at the end of each reporting period,
with the effect of any changes in estimate being accounted for on a prospective basis.
If the recoverable amount of an asset (or CGU) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset
(or CGU) is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised in the statement of profit and loss.
2.13. Inventories:
Inventories are valued, after providing for obsolescence, as under:
a. Raw materials, stores, spares, packing materials, loose tools and traded goods at weighted average cost or net realisable
value, whichever is lower.
b. Work-in-progress at lower of weighted average cost including conversion cost or net realisable value, whichever is lower.
c. Finished goods at lower of weighted average cost including conversion cost or net realisable value, whichever is lower.
2.14. Provisions:
Provisions are recognised when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is
probable that the Company will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the
obligation.
The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the
end of the reporting period, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation.
When some or all of the economic benefits required to settle a provision are expected to be recovered from a third party, a
receivable is recognised as an asset if it is virtually certain that reimbursement will be received and the amount of the receivable
can be measured reliably.
2.15. Warranties:
Provisions for the expected cost of warranty obligations are recognised at the date of sale of the relevant products, at the
management’s best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the Company’s obligation.
All recognised financial assets are subsequently measured in their entirety at either amortised cost or fair value, depending on
the classification of the financial assets
2.17.1. Financial assets at fair value through profit 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 recognised in the statement of profit and loss. The net gain or loss recognised in the statement of
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 recognised 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.
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.
For foreign currency denominated financial assets measured at amortised cost and FVTPL, exchange differences are
recognised in the statement of profit and loss, except for those which are designated as hedging instruments in a
hedging relationship.
82
Business FINANCIAL INFORMATION ON CONSOLIDATED
Responsibility Report STATEMENTS SUBSIDIARY COMPANIES FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Financial liabilities at FVTPL are stated at fair value, with any gains or losses arising on remeasurement recognised in the
statement of profit and loss. The net gain or loss recognised in the statement of profit and loss is included in the ‘other
income / expense’ line item.
The fair value of financial liabilities dominated 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 recognised in the statement of profit and loss.
Derivatives are initially recognised at fair value at the date the derivative contracts are entered into and are subsequently
remeasured to their fair value at the end of each reporting period. The resulting gain or loss is recognised in the statement of
profit and loss immediately.
Contingent liabilities and contingent assets are reviewed at each balance sheet date and updated / recognised as appropriate.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in
the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods
if the revision affects both current and future periods.
In the following areas the management of the Company has made critical judgements and estimates:
The Company determines the appropriate discount rate at the end of each year. This is the interest rate that should be used to
determine the present value of estimated future cash outflows expected to be required to settle the defined benefit obligations.
In determining the appropriate discount rate, the Company considers the interest rates of government bonds of maturity
approximating the terms of the related plan liability.
(b) Useful lives of property, plant and equipment & intangible assets:
The Company reviews the useful life of property, plant and equipment & intangible assets at the end of each reporting period.
This reassessment may result in change in depreciation expense in future periods.

Investment risk The present value of the defined benefit plan obligation is based on the Indian government security
yields prevailing as at 20th February 2018 for estimated terms of obligation. The trustees of the fund have
outsourced the investment management to the AMCs. The investments are in Unit Linked Insurance Plans,
fixed income funds and debt funds.
Interest risk A decrease in the bond interest rate will increase the plan liability; however, this will be partially offset by an
increase in the return on the plan's debt investments.
Longevity risk The present value of the defined benefit plan obligation is calculated with reference to the published rates
under the Indian Assured Lives Mortality (2006-08) Ult table. An increase in the life expectancy of the plan
participants will increase the plan's liability.
Salary risk The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated by reference to the future salaries taking
into account the inflation, seniority, promotion and other relevant factors.

Sensitivity Analysis:
Gratuity is a lump sum plan and the cost of providing these benefits is typically less sensitive to small changes in demographic
assumptions. The key actuarial assumptions to which the benefit obligation results are particularly sensitive to are discount rate
and future salary escalation rate. The following table summarizes the impact in percentage terms on the reported defined benefit
obligation (DBO) at the end of the reporting period arising on account of an increase or decrease in the reported assumption by 50

Responsibility Report STATEMENTS SUBSIDIARY COMPANIES FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. General Information:
Greaves Cotton Limited (the ‘Company’) is engaged in manufacturing of engines, engine applications and trading of power tillers,
spares related to engines and infrastructure equipment etc. The Company has manufacturing facilities in the states of Maharashtra
and Tamil Nadu. The products are mainly sold in India with some export to Middle East, Africa & South East Asia Region. The Company
has one direct and one indirect subsidiary.
The company is public limited company incorporated and domiciled in India. The address of its corporate office is 3rd Floor, Motilal
Oswal Tower, Junction of Gokhale Road & Sayani Road, Prabhadevi, Mumbai – 400 025.
The Financial statements for the year ended 31st March 2018 were approved by the Board of Directors and authorised for issue on
3rd May 2018.
Historical cost is generally based on the fair value of the consideration given in exchange for goods and services.
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between
market participants at the measurement date, regardless of whether that price is directly observable or estimated using another
valuation technique. In estimating the fair value of an asset or a liability, the Company takes into account the characteristics of
the asset or liability if market participants would take those characteristics into account when pricing the asset or liability at the
measurement date.
In addition, for financial reporting purposes, fair value measurements are categorised into Level 1, 2, or 3 based on the
degree to which the inputs to the fair value measurements are observable and the significance of the inputs to the fair value
measurement in its entirety, which are described as follows:
• Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access
at the measurement date;
• Level 2 inputs are inputs, other than quoted prices included within Level 1, that are observable for the asset or liability,
either directly or indirectly; and
• Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.
Consolidation of a subsidiary begins when the Company obtains control over the subsidiary and ceases when the Company
loses control of the subsidiary. Specifically, incomes and expenses of a subsidiary acquired or disposed of during the year are
included in the consolidated statement of statement of profit and loss from the date the Company gains control until the date
when the Company ceases to control the subsidiary.
When necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring accounting policies in line with the
Group’s accounting policies.
All intragroup assets and liabilities, equity, income, expenses and cash flows relating to transactions between members of the
Group are eliminated in full on consolidation.
When the Group loses control of a subsidiary, a gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss and is calculated as the difference
between (i) the aggregate of the fair value of consideration received and the fair value of any retained interest and (ii)
the previous carrying amount if the assets (including goodwill), and liabilities of the subsidiary and any non-controlling
interests. All amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income in relation to that subsidiary are accounted for
as if the Group had directly disposed of the related assets and liabilities of the subsidiary. The fair value of any investment
retained in the former subsidiary at the date when control is lost is regarded as the fair value on initial recognition for
subsequent accounting under Ind AS 109, or, when applicable, the cost on initial recognition of an investment in an
associate or a joint venture.
Non-current assets classified as held for sale are measured at the lower of their carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell.
Consequent to the introduction of Goods and Service Tax (GST) with effect from 1st July 2017, Central Excise, Value Added Tax
(VAT) etc. have been subsumed into GST. In accordance with Ind-AS 18 on Revenue and Schedule III of the Companies Act, 2013,
unlike Excise Duties, levies like GST, VAT etc. are not part of Revenue.
128
Business FINANCIAL INFORMATION ON CONSOLIDATED
Responsibility Report STATEMENTS SUBSIDIARY COMPANIES FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Interest income from a financial asset is recognised 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.
Contribution to Superannuation Fund and National Pension Scheme, a defined contribution scheme, is made at pre-
determined rates to the Superannuation Fund managed by Life Insurance Corporation and various asset management
companies under National Pension Scheme and is charged to the statement of profit and loss. There are no other
obligations other than the contribution payable to the Superannuation Fund & National Pension Scheme.
2.8.3.
Compensated Absences:
Compensated absences which accrue to employees and which are expected to be availed within twelve months
immediately following the year end are reported as expenses during the year in which the employee performs the service
that the benefit covers and the liabilities are reported at the undiscounted amount of the benefit, and where the availment
or encashment is otherwise not expected to wholly occur within the next twelve months, the liability on account of the
benefit is actuarially determined using the projected unit credit method.
2.9. Taxation:
2.9.1. Current 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 and loss because of items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and
items that are never taxable or deductible. The Company’s current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted
by the end of the reporting period.
2.9.2.
Deferred tax:
Deferred tax is recognised on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial
statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit. Deferred tax liabilities are generally
recognised for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are generally recognised for all deductible temporary
differences to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary
differences can be utilised.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that
it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.
Deferred tax liabilities and assets are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the year in which the liability
is settled or the asset realised, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the
end of the reporting year.
Depreciation on fixed assets is provided under the straight line method over the useful life of the assets. Extra shift depreciation
is provided based on number of shifts for which the plant has worked. Leasehold land is amortised over the primary period of
the lease. Leasehold building improvements are written off over the period of lease or their estimated useful life, whichever
is lower, on a straight line basis. Residual value of the assets is estimated at 5% of cost. The useful lives of the assets of the
Company are as follows:
130
Business FINANCIAL INFORMATION ON CONSOLIDATED
Responsibility Report STATEMENTS SUBSIDIARY COMPANIES FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
When an asset is scrapped or otherwise disposed off, the cost and related depreciation are removed from the books and the
resultant profit or loss (including capital profit), if any, is reflected in the statement of profit and loss.
The estimated useful life and residual value is reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of any changes in
estimate being accounted for on a prospective basis.
An investment property is de-recognised upon disposal or when the investment property is permanently withdrawn from use
and no future economic benefits are expected from the disposal. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of the property
(calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in the
statement of profit and loss in the year in which the property is de-recognised.
Investment property owned by the Company is depreciated under the straight line method over its estimated useful life of
30 years.
Intangible assets with finite useful lives that are acquired separately or own developed are carried at cost less
accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses. Amortisation is recognised on a straight-line basis over
their estimated useful lives. The estimated useful life and residual value is reviewed at the end of each reporting period,
with the effect of any changes in estimate being accounted for on a prospective basis.
If the recoverable amount of an asset (or CGU) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset
(or CGU) is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised in the statement of profit and loss.
2.14. Inventories:
Inventories are valued, after providing for obsolescence, as under:
(a) Raw materials, stores, spares, packing materials, loose tools and traded goods at weighted average cost or net realisable
value, whichever is lower.
(b) Work-in-progress at lower of weighted average cost including conversion cost or net realisable value, whichever is lower.
(c) Finished goods at lower of weighted average cost including conversion cost or net realisable value, whichever is lower.
2.15. Provisions:
Provisions are recognised when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is
probable that the Company will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the
obligation.
The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the
end of the reporting period, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation.
When some or all of the economic benefits required to settle a provision are expected to be recovered from a third party, a
receivable is recognised as an asset if it is virtually certain that reimbursement will be received and the amount of the receivable
can be measured reliably.
2.16. Warranties:
Provisions for the expected cost of warranty obligations are recognised at the date of sale of the relevant products, at the
management’s best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the Company’s obligation.
All recognised financial assets are subsequently measured in their entirety at either amortised cost or fair value, depending on
the classification of the financial assets.
2.18.1. Financial assets at fair value through profit 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 recognised in the statement of profit and loss. The net gain or loss recognised in the statement of
132
Business FINANCIAL INFORMATION ON CONSOLIDATED
Responsibility Report STATEMENTS SUBSIDIARY COMPANIES FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
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 recognised 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.
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.
For foreign currency denominated financial assets measured at amortised cost and FVTPL, exchange differences are
recognised in the statement of profit and loss, except for those which are designated as hedging instruments in a
hedging relationship.
Financial liabilities at FVTPL are stated at fair value, with any gains or losses arising on remeasurement recognised in the
statement of profit and loss. The net gain or loss recognised in the statement of profit and loss is included in the ‘other
income / expense’ line item.
The fair value of financial liabilities dominated 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 recognised in the statement of profit and loss.
Derivatives are initially recognised at fair value at the date the derivative contracts are entered into and are subsequently
remeasured to their fair value at the end of each reporting period. The resulting gain or loss is recognised in the statement of
profit and loss immediately.
Contingent liabilities and contingent assets are reviewed at each balance sheet date and updated / recognised as appropriate.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in
the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods
if the revision affects both current and future periods.

Business FINANCIAL INFORMATION ON CONSOLIDATED
Responsibility Report STATEMENTS SUBSIDIARY COMPANIES FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
In the following areas the management of the Company has made critical judgements and estimates:
a. Employee Benefits:
The present value of the defined benefit obligations depends on a number of factors that are determined on an actuarial
basis using a number of assumptions. The assumptions used in determining the net cost (income) for post employments plans
include the discount rate. Any changes in these assumptions will impact the carrying amount of such obligations.
The Company determines the appropriate discount rate at the end of each year. This is the interest rate that should be used to
determine the present value of estimated future cash outflows expected to be required to settle the defined benefit obligations.
In determining the appropriate discount rate, the Company considers the interest rates of government bonds of maturity
approximating the terms of the related plan liability.

Investment risk The present value of the defined benefit plan obligation is based on the Indian government security yields
prevailing as at 20th February 2018 for estimated terms of obligation. The trustees of the fund have outsourced
the investment management to the AMCs. The investments are in Unit Linked Insurance Plans, fixed income
funds and debt funds.
Interest risk A decrease in the bond interest rate will increase the plan liability; however, this will be partially offset by an
increase in the return on the plan’s debt investments.
Longevity risk The present value of the defined benefit plan obligation is calculated with reference to the published rates
under the Indian Assured Lives Mortality (2006-08) Ult table. An increase in the life expectancy of the plan
participants will increase the plan’s liability.
Salary risk The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated by reference to the future salaries taking into
account the inflation, seniority, promotion and other relevant factors.
The principal assumptions used for the purposes of the actuarial valuations were as follows:

Sensitivity Analysis:
Gratuity is a lump sum plan and the cost of providing these benefits is typically less sensitive to small changes in demographic
assumptions. The key actuarial assumptions to which the benefit obligation results are particularly sensitive to are discount rate
and future salary escalation rate. The following table summarizes the impact in percentage terms on the reported defined benefit
obligation (DBO) at the end of the reporting period arising on account of an increase or decrease in the reported assumption by 50
basis points.

Discount Rate Escalation Discount Rate Escalation

Impact of increase in 50 bps on DBO (0.77) 0.76 (0.82) 0.71
Impact of decrease in 50 bps on DBO 0.80 (0.74) 0.87 (0.70)
These sensitivities have been calculated to show the movement in defined benefit obligation in isolation and assuming there are no
other changes in market conditions at the accounting date. There have been no changes from the previous periods in the methods
and assumptions used in preparing the sensitivity analysis.
The average duration of the benefit obligation at 31st March 2018 is 10.59 years, (as at 31st March 2017: 12.16 years).
