Trade debtors are non-interest bearing. The carrying amount of trade debtors impaired by credit losses is reduced through
the use of an allowance account unless the Group writes off the amount ascertained to be uncollectible. In subsequent
periods when a trade debtor is ascertained to be uncollectible, it is written off against the allowance account.
Significant financial difficulties of the debtor, probability that the debtor will enter bankruptcy or financial reorganisation,
and default or delinquency in payments (more than 90 days aging of debtor balances) are considered indicators that the
trade debtor is impaired. Individual trade debtor is written off when management deems the amount not to be collectible.
Accrued receivables pertain to services rendered in advance of billings.
Amounts owing by subsidiary, associated and joint venture companies are unsecured, trade-related, non-interest bearing
and are repayable on demand. The amounts are neither overdue nor impaired.
