2.0 FINANCE SECTOR REPORT

2.1 IntroductionFinance companies are either non-bank companies or lending institutions, which primarily raise money from the public

(deposits) and lend to its customers by way of Loans, Leases, Hire Purchases, Microfinance. Finance companies play an

essential role in the economy of the country by helping to increase the investment capacity of the economy by converting

low cost funds to investments.

The regulation and supervision of Registered Finance Companies (RFC) is governed by the Finance Companies Act.

The Department of Supervision of Non-Bank Financial Institutions of the Central Bank carries out the regulatory and

supervisory functions in respect of RFC, with the objective of ensuring that these institutions comply with the minimum

prudential requirements stipulated by the Central Bank. These functions are carried out mainly through off-site surveillance

and on-site examinations.

The Directions and Rules issued under the provision of the Finance Companies Act cover minimum capital adequacy

and liquidity requirements, deposits, provisioning for bad and doubtful debts, single borrower limits and limits on equity

investments. Matters relating to non-compliance with prudential requirements and any weaknesses and deficiencies in the

financial condition, controls and systems of a finance company are brought to the notice of its Board of Directors, to ensure

that corrective action is taken by the finance company.

Currently, the sector consists of 36 financial institutions categorised under registered financial institutions and monitored by

the Central Bank of Sri Lanka (CBSL). The decline in demand for new credit and the failure of several entities connected

to banks and finance companies in the Ceylinco Group, significantly hindered the normal business activities of the sector

in the past two years. As a result of that, the performance of the RFC sector, in terms of profitability, earnings and capital

adequacy was adversely affected in the last few years.

However, RFC sector continued to make an important contribution, especially in the area of vehicle financing by catering

to a diverse and important customer base that have limited access to bank finance. The RFC sector grew by approximately

9% at the end of September 2010, and with an asset base of Rs. 202 Billion. The two largest RFC, The Finance Company

PLC and Central Finance, together accounted for approximately 40% of the sector in FYE10.

Summary of the sector assets composition is given in the following table:

Assets distribution of the sector has been quite stable during the past five years. As at September 2010, loans and

advances accounted for 65% of the total assets in the sector with an assets base of Rs. 131,156 Million.

Furthermore, owing to the current depression in the real estate market, loans against real estate declined by 8% to

Rs. 7,154 Million as at September 2010. The reduction in interest rates in 2009 had a positive impact on the business,

resulting in a drastic reduction in the borrowing cost.

2.2 Sources and Uses of FundsThe failure of several entities connected to banks and finance companies in the Ceylinco Group significantly hindered the

normal business activities of the sector. As a consequence, the performance of the RFC sector, in terms of profitability,

earnings and capital adequacy was adversely affected. The major source of funding continued to be from public deposits

and its contribution has remained at 68% compared to previous year (2009).

Graph 01 illustrates the current composition of funding sources and their relevant contribution given to RFC sector.

Source: RAM Rating

Public Deposits continued to be the major source of funding. Deposits of RFCs accounted for 68% of total funds of RFC.

Deposit liabilities increased by 9%, for six months ended, to Rs. 137 Billion in September 2010 compared to 28% growth in

the last year. The declining growth in deposits could be attributed to the lower interest rates. The other two main sources

of funding by RFC were borrowings and capital funds, which accounted for 13% and 10%, respectively of total resources.

Despite the severe stresses encountered by some companies, RFCs sector continued to make an important contribution,

especially in the area of vehicle financing by catering to a diverse and important customer base that have no easy access

to bank finance. The total assets of RFC as at September 2010 stood at Rs. 202 Billion, a growth of 9% compared to a

growth of 6% in 2009.

Loans and advances accelerated due to the higher demand for hire purchases and leasing as interest rates declined

drastically. Credit for investment activities, including loans (13.25%), hire purchase (25.35%), leasing including motor

vehicles (20.32%) and real estate investments including housing and property development (3.54%) are the sectors to

which the RFC have given most credit. These four sectors account for about 62.45% of the total assets base.

Since the assets base of RFC comprises more loans, HPs and leases, the advantage of falling interest rates has resulted

in a positive benefit to the sector, that is deposit base of the RFC’s is re-pricing faster than assets base including long-

term lending. Further, decline in real estate market may cause to reduce the business risk as market risk and liquidity risk,

associated with real estate business remained at higher position.

Growths in different assets classes attached to loans and advances portfolio are presented below -

Sri Lankan financial markets became more liquid and stable during the last year. The easing of monetary policy and

increased liquidity resulted in a gradual decline in interest rates and reduced volatility in the money market. Enabled by the

decline in inflation as well as a favourable outlook for inflation, CBSL continued to lower its policy rates signalling to the

market the need to lower the overall interest rate structure. Short-term money market interest rates remained at a low level

with much of the volatility smoothened out during 2010. The average weighted call money rate (AWCMR), was brought

within CBSL’s policy interest rate corridor by end March 2009, thus improving the effectiveness of the monetary policy

operations of CBSL through the interest rate channel. This has resulted in credit expansion in the RFC sector.

2.3 Efficiency of the Business EnvironmentProfitability of RFC in year 2009/10 was severely affected due to the slowdown of business activities and adverse impact

from few peer companies. The sector reported an after tax loss of Rs. 1382 Million as at March 2010, compared with

the after tax profit of Rs. 311 Million in 2008. Nevertheless, the sector’s profitability has been largely influenced by the

significant losses incurred by a few RFC. However, some RFC performed well even during the crisis, due to their well-

adopted business practices and good governance.

However, it should be noted that the sector is now performing well with reported six month after tax profit of Rs. 990 Million

as at the end of September 2010. NIM of the sector has remained at stable level during five years with 2009/10 NIMs at

6.09%. Even though, the sector reported positive NIMs for the period ended March 2010, net profit show a negative figure

due to higher non-interest expenses and loan loss provisions incurred by the sector. Other than that, the sector was reporting

a taxable income and thereby the tax expenses have increased. However, the reduction of VAT in Financial Services and

rationalisation of the overall tax regime in the recent Budget will positively benefit RFC performance in the future.

Cost to income ratio measures the efficiency of the business operation of a lending institute. The RFC has been recording

an increasing rate of cost to income ratio during the past 6 years, hence the efficiency of RFC is considered to be low. The

main reason for having higher cost to income ratio is due to higher non-interest expenses incurred by the sector in their

operations. However, the six months ended 11th September have shown a decline and this trend urges well for the future

of the industry.

As far as Assets’ Quality of the sector is concerned, sector shows weak performance of asset management. The main

purpose of a finance company is to convert their financial assets to future cash flows without incurring substantial losses on

the transactions. Simply, this is measured by the Non-Performing Loans (NPL) statistics of the sector. At RFC, their gross

NPL ratio has increased to 7.90% as at March 2010, compared to 6.46% in 2009. Impact of this event has resulted in a

higher annual provision requirement. The continued trend in the increase as reflected in the 11th September figure (9.22%)

is of great concern and needs the attention of all stakeholders for the sake of future stability of the sector.

Liquidity position of the sector shows the strength of the sector to meet outside obligations in future. Additionally, it provides

an indication of the quality of ALM, (Assets and Liability Management), and soundness of the monetary policy adopted by

the companies. The sector Loans to Deposit ratio is a key indicator by which an assessment can be made of the quality of

ALM. Loans to Deposits ratio for the sector has reduced to 90.28% in 2001/10 from 105.02% in previous year, 2008/09.

This was mainly due to the increase in the deposit base as a result of opening of new branches in the North and the East

regions. RAM Ratings Lanka has estimated the industry’s statutory liquid asset ratio as 13.97% as at September 2010,

from 15.62% in the previous year. The sector maintains adequate level of liquid assets, which satisfies the minimum

statutory liquid assets ratio of 10% as mandated by CBSL regulations.

2.4 Risk ManagementRisk management is “the process of analysing exposure to risk and determining how to best handle such exposure”,

which ensures that participants assume well calculated business risks which safeguard their capital, funding sources and

profitability from various sources of risks. The mechanism permits to create a culture of risk awareness across all sections

of the Company, to identify, measure, analyse and evaluate risks and to set appropriate policies to the risk appetite in

order to manage and hedge such identified risks identified.

Credit risk - The borrowers’ inability to meet the obligations towards the Company on time would expose a company to this

risk. The management of this risk is in the hands of each company hence there are several actions companies take prior

to lending facilities to clients. Assessing the credit worthiness of the client is done by considering details of the property

held by the client, obtaining a report from Credit Information Bureau (CRIB), getting creditworthy guarantors, etc. Valuing

the credit worthiness of the customer depends on the knowledge and experience of the credit officer concerned, hence

companies make sure that the staff is given a comprehensive training in this regard. Further, being conservative, the

companies provide provisions out of the profit to meet this risk. RFC also maintain such fund in their account but increasing

trend of this figure does not show good performance of the Company.

Economic risk associated with debtors’ capability to meet the obligations as well as a potential borrowers’ ability to borrow

would get adversely affected due to changes in the state of the economy. This too is to a greater extent beyond the control

of the Company. However, in order to mitigate the risk, participant can improve the accuracy of the predictions made,

based on the analysis of past trends and prevailing market conditions.

FINANCE SECTOR REPORT

Commercial Credit Limited Introductory Document10

Interest rate risk is the potential impact on an institution’s earnings and net assets values of changes in interest rates.

Interest rate risk arises when an institution’s principal and interest cash flows (including final maturities), both On and

Off-Balance Sheet, have mismatched re-pricing dates. The amount at risk is a function of the magnitude, direction of

interest rate changes and the size and maturity structure of the mismatch position.

Managing interest rate risk is a fundamental component of safe and sound management of all institutions. It involves prudently

managing positions in order to control, within set parameters, the impact of changes in interest rate on the institution.

Significant factors in managing the risk include the frequency, volatility and direction of rate changes, the slope of the

interest rate yield curve, the size of the interest-sensitive position and the basis of re-pricing at roll over dates.

Liquidity risk is the risk faced by the participants due to the shortage of cash or cash equivalent to meet the obligations

of the Company on time. Management of this risk is mainly a responsibility of the Treasury Department. Each company

should ensure that there are sufficient liquid assets to meet the working capital requirement, thus ensuring a smooth run in

daily operations. One of the main risks RFC face in this context is the asset liability mismatch and RFC must ensure that the

Company’s cash inflow is in line with cash outflow. All RFC participants should maintain minimum amount of liquid assets,

10%, which is mandated by CBSL regulations.

Operational risk is the risk caused by the failure in the routine operational functions of the Company. This could arise

as a result of a failure in the systems, procedures, processes, failure of the employees to comply with the set rules and

regulations or through human error. As a mitigation strategy, RFC participants place special emphasis on training given

to employees, thus ensuring that they have comprehensive knowledge and skills required to perform the particular job

assigned to them. Further, all the employees are given a well-defined job profile, which clearly communicates the roles

and responsibilities of each. Authority levels are assigned to employees considering the role he/she plays in the corporate

hierarchy and it is clearly communicated to the staff, thus ensuring that every employee follows the relevant instructions.

Reputation risk can be defined as the risk arising from negative perception on the part of customers, counterparties,

shareholders, investors or regulators that can adversely affect a RFC ability to maintain existing, or establish new business

relationships and continued access to sources of funding. This risk is not directly related to one particular company but

affects the whole sector. RFC sector experienced this risk with the failure of several entities connected to banks and

finance companies in the Ceylinco Group, significantly hindering the normal business activities of the sector.

2.5 Future Outlook Since the profitability of the sector depends on the interest rates prevailing in the country, reduction in interest rates will

positively affect the sector’s profitability. Therefore, reduction in interest rates will stimulate investments in the country and

thereby sector’s net interest margins will increase. This effect is shown in the six month ended Financial Statements of

the sector where NIM of the sector has increased from 6.07% to 7.95% as at September 2010. In addition, the revision

in Government tax policy is also expected to benefit the sector with the reduction in the tax rates effective from January 2011.

The regulatory framework relating to RFC is strengthened. In order to make the Board of Directors of RFC responsible and

accountable for the companies’ performance and risk management, compliance with the Finance Companies (Corporate

Governance) Direction is closely monitored. The Finance Companies (Reporting Requirement) Direction No. 5 of 2009 was

imposed to grant more powers to CBSL to regulate RFC.

Furthermore, listing on the Colombo Stock Exchange was made compulsory for RFC by end June 2011. This is expected

to improve Corporate Governance and Transparency in the Management of the RFC resulting in overall performance of

the sector.

More importantly, to prevent further financial scams arising from the misconduct of unauthorised players, the Finance

Business Act is to be enacted in the near future. This will replace the current Finance Companies Act (FCA). The major

revisions proposed in the draft Finance Business Act are: to make the acceptance of deposits without authority an

offence, to provide a clear definition of the term ‘deposits’, to enhance powers for examinations and investigations to curb

unauthorised finance/deposits taking businesses, to enhance public disclosure, and to empower the Monetary Board to

establish a mandatory deposit insurance scheme.

3.0 PROFILE OF THE ENTITY

3.1 Incorporation and HistoryFourth October 1982 witnessed the birth of Commercial Credit Limited in the hill capital of Kandy. The Company, registered

as a Finance Company under Finance Companies Act No. 78 of 1988 under the Monetary Board of Central Bank of

Sri Lanka from a steady foundation laid over a period of 28 years has re-emerged as the NEW KID IN THE BLOCK with

the shifting of the main operations of the Company to Colombo in March 2010.

During the initial stages of operations, the Company was mainly focused on lending to the Agricultural sector with this

sector accounting for over 50% of the lending portfolio. Although the Company had 16 locations spread around the country,

the traditional agricultural regions of the country, such as Anuradhapura, Dehiattakandiya, etc., accounted for the bulk of

the business of the Company.

A key achievement of the Company during its first phase of the existence was the inculcation of a very strong culture of

Process and System driven mind set. This has resulted in the development of a highly advanced Management Information

System (MIS), enabling the Company to manage day-to-day operations with a very lean staff structure. The Process Mind

Set also enabled the Company to obtain ISO 9001:2008 in October 2006 for enhanced quality management compliance.

A change in the majority shareholding of the Company in October 2009 resulted in a new management team with

Mr. Roshan Egodage, taking over the operations of the Company. A well-planned and executed strategy of New Corporate

Image, New Innovative Products and Modern Infrastructure together with an empowered work culture has resulted in the

Company recording a huge growth in the deposit and lending base, unprecedented in the sector in the past. The very robust

and user friendly MIS system together with the extended branch reach were the key enabling factors for the growth of

the Company.

The driving force behind the Company’s astronomical success todate is the Company’s dedicated workforce drawn from

the cream of the industry’s talent pool. The Company’s culture of liberalisation and empowerment has enabled the team

to over deliver in terms of Industry norms. The loyalty and commitment of the team members have been a pivotal factor in

the Company’s success story. During this period, the Company has increased the staff strength threefold from 150 to 458

with over 80% of the new recruits being marketers.

The scalability the Company has achieved has been possible due to the culture of empowerment practiced thoughout the

Company together with the MIS system, which has facilitated the Credit Management at the front line, while ensuring that

control and information flow is maintained at the head office to ensure compliance and creditworthiness. This has enabled

the Company to achieve one of the best NPL ratios and Cost to Income Ratios in the industry.

During this period, the Company has introduced many new innovative and trail-blazing products, both for mobilisation of

funds and increase of the lending portfolio. Microfinance, Education Loan, Quick Loan, etc. has enabled the Company to

reach out to a wider segment of the society and serve a client base of over 100,000 customers.

During the past 15 months, the Company expanded its reach from 16 locations to 36 locations spread across the country.

The Company also upgraded the existing branch infrastructure in order to create a modernised ambience for both staff

and the customers. This branch expansion and the infrastructure upgrading, coupled with the NEW BRAND LOGO and

innovative marketing and advertising strategy have laid the foundation for the future growth of the Company and its

aspiration to be among the Top-3 Finance Companies in the country within the next three years.

Having served over 100,000 customers across the country, Commercial Credit will strive to create future leaders, who will

be empowered to uplift the living standards of society at large, with enhanced customer service and innovative products.

Commercial Credit Limited Introductory Document14

The People-Driven Culture combined with SPEED and SERVICE EXCELLENCE will support the successful implementation

of the following strategies:

1. The Expansion of Reach with a total of 25 branches and 50 service locations operational within the next three years.

2. Regular launch of New and Innovative products to cater to the specific needs of customers from different parts of

the country.

3. A well-balanced portfolio of products with no products being more than 30% of the total product value. This will insulate

the Company from overexposure and sudden dips due to changes in the environment outside of the Company’s control.

4. Pawning will be one of the key products of the future, which would address the issue of duration mismatch, which is an

inherent problem of the Finance Industry.

5. Land sales to be a major contributor to the bottom line performance of the Company. However, this will be achieved

while ensuring the total investment in the land bank to be below 5% of the asset base of the Company.

The effectiveness and the implementation of the above strategies can be best judged by the performance of the Company

in the six month period March 2010 to September 2010, viz-a-viz the industry -

(a) Deposit Growth - From Rs. 1.7 Billion to Rs. 2.7 Billion. This represents a growth of 60%, during this same period the

industry has recorded a deposit increase of Rs. 11.8 Billion representing a growth of 9%. The increase in the Company

deposit during this period represents 8.48% of the total industry increase in deposits.

(b) Lending Growth - From Rs. 1.6 Billion to Rs. 2.6 Billion. This represents a growth of 68.41%, during this same period

the industry has recorded a lending increase of Rs. 17.78 Billion representing a growth of 15.68%. The increase in the

Company lending during this period represents 5.6% of the total industry increase in lending during this period.

(c) Cost to Income Ratio, improved to 49% as at 30th September 2010, well below the industry standard of 60% for the

same date. By December 2010, the Company has managed to reduce it to 41%.

(d) Loans to Deposits Ratio of Commercial Credit has moved from 91% to 96% from end of March 2010 to September

2010; when the movement in the industry is from 90% to 95%.

Risk Associated to the Future Plans

Credit risk - the borrowers’ inability to meet the obligations towards the Company on time would expose the Company to

this risk. The management of this risk is in the hands of each company, hence there are several actions companies take

prior to lending facilities to clients. Assessing the creditworthiness of the client is done by considering details of the property

held by the client, obtaining a report from Credit Information Bureau (CRIB), getting creditworthy guarantors, etc.

The Company has a very tight credit evaluation process with a well-developed MIS to manage the Credit Risk. In addition,

the Company has adopted CBSL guidelines to identify trends and take corrective actions to rectify negative patterns to

mitigate credit risk.

Economic risk associated with debtors’ capability to meet the obligations as well as a potential borrowers’ ability to

borrow, would get adversely affected due to changes in the state of the economy. This too is, to a greater extent, beyond

the control of the Company.

The Company has a diversified lending base which covers Agriculture, Corporate Finance, Hire Purchase; Lease Products,

etc. The Company has a policy of no one class of product being more than 30% of the total portfolio and this balance basket

of products will help the Company mitigate the Economic risk due to overexposure.

PROFILE OF THE ENTITY

Commercial Credit Limited Introductory Document 15

Interest rate risk is the potential impact on an institution’s earnings and net assets values of changes in interest rates.

Interest rate risk arises when an institution’s principal and interest cashflows (including final maturities), both On and Off-

Balance Sheet, have mismatched re-pricing dates.

Significant factors in managing the risk include the frequency, volatility and direction of rate changes, the slope of the

interest rate yield curve, the size of the interest-sensitive position and the basis of re-pricing at roll over dates.

As the product portfolio of the Company has a mix of long-term and short-term lending products, Commercial Credit is less

exposed to interest rate risk.

Liquidity risk is the risk faced by the participants due to the shortage of cash or cash equivalent to meet the obligations

of the Company on time. Management of this risk is mainly a responsibility of the Treasury Department. Each company

should ensure that there are sufficient liquid assets to meet the working capital requirement, thus ensuring a smooth run

in daily operations.

In addition to maintaining well above stipulated liquid asset criteria as mandated by CBSL, the Company arranged Credit

Lines from Licensed Banks to mitigate any cash shortfall arsing when liabilities are due.

Reputation risk can be defined as the risk arising from negative perception on the part of customers, counterparties,

shareholders, investors or regulators that can adversely affect a RFC ability to maintain existing, or establish new business

relationships and continued access to sources of funding.

The Company has carried out various CSR and PR activities to enhance both the social welfare and corporate image in

the minds of various stakeholders. The Company’s Innovative Brand Building campaign and the superior level of service

delivery has helped the Company build a very Strong Loyalty among its customer base.

for real estate.

bank borrowings and equity. Deposit base has experienced a significant growth during the last eighteen months. Despite

the intense competition, the Company managed to maintain the momentum by recording a 158 % increase of the deposit

Accounting Policy ChangesYear Accounting Policy Changes

2005/06 There were no material changes.

2006/07 There were no material changes.

2007/08 Except for the following there were no material accounting policy changes to the Financial Statements:

Deferred TaxesDeferred taxation is provided using the Balance Sheet method, providing for the temporary differences

between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts

used for taxation purposes. The amount of deferred tax provided is based on expected manner of

realisation or settlement of the carrying amounts of the assets and liabilities, using tax rates enacted or

substantively enacted by the reporting date.

Deferred tax assets including those relating to temporary tax effects of income tax losses and credits

available to carried forward are recognised only to the extent that is probable that future taxable profit will

be available against which the asset can be utilised. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting

date and are reduced to the extent that is no longer probable that related tax benefit will be realised.

2008/09 Except for the following there were no material accounting policy changes to the Financial Statements:

The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the previous financial year except where the

Group has made changes to be in compliance with Sri Lanka Accounting Standard No. 16 - ‘Employee

Benefits’ (Revised 2006, which is discussed below).

Measurement of Defined Benefit PlansDuring the year ended 31st March 2009, the Company changed its accounting policy for the

measurement of Retirement Gratuity (Defined Benefit Plan). The Company now performs the

computation based on Actuarial Valuation Method of SLAS 16 (Revised 2006).

The principal assumptions used in determining the post employment benefit liability for the Company are

shown below:

Staff turnover rate

Age 20 25 30 35 40 45 50Turnover (%) 10.00 10.00 10.00 7.50 5.00 2.5 1.00

2006/07 Unqualified opinion.

2007/08 Unqualified opinion.

2008/09 No other qualification reported except for the following:

We were unable to satisfy ourselves as to the accuracy of the following balances due to non availability

of supporting evidence:

Dealer Advance Branches Cr. 4,318,043Suspense Clearance Cr. 665,896Receivable GST Dr. 1,060,890Interest SFD for the year Cr. 1,113,175

A significant difference was noted with regard to unearned income between the credit base and the

ledger balance of the Company amounting to Rs. 35,274,234/- as at 31st March 2009.

2009/10 No other qualification reported except for the following:

As discussed in Note 4.18, profit on sale of real estate under easy payment scheme amounting to

Rs. 17,272,424/- has been recognised upon entering into the contract of agreement to sell. However, the

equitable interest and legal title of the property are transferred to the buyer upon settlement of 100% of the

instalment. In our opinion, the Company had not transferred to the buyer, the significant risk and rewards

of ownership of the land, and retains continuing managerial involvement to the degree usually associated

with ownership and effective control of the land at the time of entering into an agreement to sell, which is

not in compliance with Sri Lanka Accounting Standard 29 - ‘Revenue Recognition’. Accordingly, profit for

the year has been overstated by the said amount.

As discussed in Note 35 C, assessment of net realisable value of real estate stock was carried out as

at 31st March 2010 and the provision for fall in value amounting to Rs. 36,034,423/- has been adjusted

through reserves. In our opinion, it is not a prior period error in accordance with Sri Lanka Accounting

Standards 10 - ‘Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors’. Therefore, profit for the

year has been overstated by the said amount.

As discussed in note 35 H and I, advance company tax amounting to Rs. 1,671,329/- and GST receivable

amounting to Rs. 1,060,890/- had been charged to retained earnings due to non availability of information.

In our opinion, it is not a prior period error in accordance with Sri Lanka Accounting Standards 10 -

‘Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors’. Therefore, profit for the year has been

overstated by Rs. 2,732,219/-.

The Company has not maintained the minimum core capital as required by the Central Bank Direction

No. 1 of 2006 throughout the year.

The Audit Committee does not comprise solely of Non-Executive Directors as required by the Central Bank

Direction No. 3 of 2008.

INDEpENDENT AUDIToR’S REpoRT

INDEpENDENT AUDIToR’S REpoRT To THE SHAREHoLDERS oF CoMMERCIAL CREDIT LIMITEDReport on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Commercial Credit Ltd. which comprise the balance sheet as

at 31st March 2010, and the income statement, statement of changes in equity and cash flow statement for the year then

ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory notes.

Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with

Sri Lanka Accounting Standards. This responsibility includes: designing, implementing and maintaining internal control

relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether

due to fraud or error: selecting and applying appropriate accounting policies, and making accounting estimates that are

reasonable in the circumstances.

Scope of Audit and Basis of opinion

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in

accordance with Sri Lanka Auditing Standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain

reasonable assurance whether the financial statements are free from material misstatements.

An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.

An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well

as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.

We have obtained all the information and explanations, except for the matters referred to in paragraph 1 below, which to

the best of our knowledge and belief were necessary for the purposes of our audit. We therefore believe that our audit

provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

opinionDisagreement with the Management

As discussed in note 4.18, profit on sale of real estate under easy payment scheme amounting to Rs 17,272,424 has

been recognised upon entering into the contract of agreement to sell. However, the equitable interest and legal title of

the property are transferred to the buyer upon settlement of 100% of the installment. In our opinion, the company had

not transferred to the buyer, the significant risk and rewards of ownership of the land, and retains continuing managerial

involvement to the degree usually associated with ownership and effective control of the land at the time of entering into an

agreement to sell, which is not in compliance with Sri Lanka Accounting Standard - 29 “Revenue Recognition”. Accordingly,

profit for the year has been overstated by the said amount.

63Commercial Credit Limited Introductory Document

As discussed in note 35-H, assessment of net realizable value of real estate stock was carried out as at 31 March 2010

and the provision for fall in value amounting to Rs 36,034,423 has been adjusted through reserves. In our opinion, it is not

a prior period error in accordance with Sri Lanka Accounting Standards - 10 “Accounting policies, Changes in Accounting

Estimates and Errors”. Therefore, profit for the year has been overstated by the said amount.

As discussed in note 35-F and G, advance company tax amounting to Rs. 1,671,329 and GST receivable amounting to

Rs. 1,060,890 had been charged to retained earnings due to non availability of information. In our opinion, it is not a

prior period error in accordance with Sri Lanka Accounting Standards - 10 “Accounting policies, Changes in Accounting

Estimates and Errors”. Therefore, profit for the year has been overstated by Rs. 2,732,219.

In our opinion, except for the effect of any adjustment in the financial statements resulting from the matters referred to in the

preceding paragraphs, so far as appears from our examination, the Company maintained proper accounting records for the

year ended 31 March 2010, and the financial statements give a true and fair view of the Company’s state of affairs as at 31

March 2010 and of its profit and cash flows for the year then ended, in accordance with Sri Lanka Accounting Standards.

Report on Legal and other Regulatory Requirements

The Company has not maintained the minimum core capital as required by the Central Bank Direction No. 1 of 2006

throughout the year.

The audit committee does not comprise solely of Non-Executive directors as required by the Central Bank Direction No. 3

of 2008.

Except for the above, the financial statements also comply with the requirements of Section 151(2) of the Companies Act

No. 07 of 2007 and Finance Companies Act No. 78 of 1988.

Losses expected from future events are not recognised. Any provision identified is charged to the Income Statement and

the carrying amount of the loan on the Balance Sheet is reduced.

Thresholds used for making specific provisions for bad and doubtful debts -

Period outstanding Classification Provision as a percentage of net exposure

6-12 months Doubtful 50%12 months and over Loss 100%

Revenue Recognition on Non-performing Advances and Leases

When an advance or a lease is classified as non-performing, interest income ceases to be recognised using the accrual

basis and is taken to income only on a cash basis.

4.6 InventoriesReal Estate

Real estates are valued at cost or net realisable value whichever is lower. Cost includes all expenses necessary to bring

the real estate to the condition as at the balance sheet date. Net realisable value is the price at which inventories can be

sold in the ordinary course of business less estimated costs of completion and estimated costs necessary to make the sale.

other Inventories

These are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value.

4.7 Hire purchase Receivables

Assets purchased by customers under agreements that transfer substantially all the risks and rewards associated with

ownership other than legal title are classified as hire purchase receivables. Hire purchase receivables in the Balance Sheet

include total hire purchase installments due, net of unearned interest and provision for doubtful debts.

4.8 Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, balances with banks, and short-term highly liquid investments, readily

convertible to known amounts of cash and subject to insignificant risk of changes in value.

For the purpose of cash flow statement, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash in hand and deposits in banks net of

outstanding bank overdrafts. The cash flow statement is reported based on the direct method.

4.9 property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost or valuation less subsequent accumulated depreciation and any subsequent

accumulated impairment losses. All items of property and equipment are initially recorded at cost. The cost of property

and equipment is the cost of acquisition or construction together with any expenses incurred in bringing the asset to the

SIGNIFICANT ACCoUNTING poLICIES

71Commercial Credit Limited Introductory Document

condition for its intended use. Where items of property and equipment are subsequently re-valued, the entire class of such

assets is re-valued. The Company has adopted a policy of revaluing assets every 5 years. When an asset is re-valued,

any increase in the carrying amount is credited directly to a revaluation reserve, except to the extent that it reverses a

revaluation decrease of the same asset previously recognised in the Income Statement, in which case the increase is

recognised in the Income Statement. Any revaluation deficit that offsets a previous surplus in the same asset is directly

offset against the surplus in the revaluation reserve and any excess recognised as an expense. Upon disposal, any

revaluation reserve relating to the asset sold is transferred to retained earnings.

Items of property and equipment are de-recognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from

its use. Any gain or loss arising on de-recognition of the asset is included in the Income Statement in the year the asset is

de-recognised.

Subsequent expenditure incurred for the purpose of acquiring, extending or improving assets of a permanent nature

by means of which to carry on the business or to increase the earning capacity of the business are treated as capital

expenditure.

Depreciation

Depreciation is provided on written-down value basis to write off net book value of all the assets appropriate to the estimated

useful lives of the different type of assets-

Building 2%Motor vehicles 25%Furniture and fittings 12.5%Office equipment 12.5%Computers 20%Photocopy/fax machines 12.5%Air conditioners 12.5%Generators 12.5%

4.10 Investment property

Investment property, which is property held to earn rentals and/or for capital appreciation, is measured initially at its cost,

including transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, investment property is measured at fair value, which reflects

market conditions at the Balance Sheet date. Gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value of investment property

are included in profit or loss for the period in which they arise.

4.10 Intangible Assets4.10.1 Basis of Recognition

Intangible assets are recognised if it is probable that the future economic benefits that are attributable to the assets will

flow to the entity and the cost of the assets can be measured reliably in accordance with Sri Lanka Accounting Standard

No. 37 ‘Intangible Assets’. Accordingly, these assets are stated in the Balance Sheet at cost less accumulated amortisation

and impairment losses.

4.10.2 Subsequent Expenditure

Subsequent expenditure on intangible assets is capitalised only when it increases the future economic benefits embodied

in these assets. All other expenditure is expensed as incurred.

SIGNIFICANT ACCoUNTING poLICIES

72 Commercial Credit Limited Introductory Document

4.10.3 Amortisation

The useful lives of intangible assets are assessed to be either finite or infinite. Intangible assets with finite lives are

amortised over the useful economic life. The amortisation period and the amortisation method for an intangible asset with

a finite useful life are reviewed at each financial year-end. Changes in the expected useful life or the expected pattern of

consumption of future economic benefits embodied in the asset are accounted for by changing the amortisation period

or method, as appropriate and are treated as changes in accounting estimates. The amortisation expense on intangible

assets with finite lives is recognised in the Income Statement in the expenses category consistent with the function of

intangible asset.

4.10.4 Computer software

Computer software is stated at cost less accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment loss. Amortisation is

made at 25% per annum on cost.

4.11 Leasehold Assets

Leases are classified as finance leases whenever terms of the lease transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of

ownership to the lessee. All other leases are classified as operating leases.

Finance leases

Assets held under finance leases are initially recognised as assets of the Company at their fair value at the inception of the

lease or, if lower, at the present value of the minimum lease payments. The corresponding liability to the lessor is included

in the Balance Sheet as a finance lease obligation.

Lease payments are apportioned between finance charges and reduction of the lease obligation so as to achieve a constant

rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. Finance charges are charged directly to Income Statement, unless

they are directly attributable to qualifying assets, in which case they are capitalised in accordance with the Company’s

general policy on borrowing costs (see Note 4.17). Contingent rentals are recognised as expenses in the periods in which

they are incurred.

operating leases

Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term, except where

another systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern in which economic benefits from the leased asset are

consumed. Contingent rentals arising under operating leases are recognised as an expense in the period in which they

are incurred.

4.12 Impairment 4.12.1 Financial assets

In addition to the provision made for possible loan losses based on the parameters and directives for the specific and

general provisions on loans and advances by the Central Bank of Sri Lanka, the Company reviews its loans and advances

portfolio at each reporting date to assess whether a further allowance for impairment should be provided in the Income

Statement. The judgment by the management is required in the estimation of these amounts and such estimates are based

on assumptions about a number of factors though actual results may differ, resulting in future changes to the provisions.

4.12.2 Impairment of Non-Financial Assets

At each Balance Sheet date, the Company reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible and intangible assets to determine

whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the

recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). Where it is not

possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Company estimates the recoverable amount of the

cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. Where a reasonable and consistent basis of allocation can be identified,

SIGNIFICANT ACCoUNTING poLICIES

73Commercial Credit Limited Introductory Document

corporate assets are also allocated to individual cash-generating units, or otherwise they are allocated to the smallest

group of cash-generating units for which a reasonable and consistent allocation basis can be identified.

If the recoverable amount of an asset (or cash-generating unit) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the

carrying amount of the asset (cash-generating unit) is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised

immediately in the Income Statement, unless the relevant asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the

impairment loss is treated as a revaluation decrease.

4.13 Income Taxes

Income tax expense represents the sum of taxes currently payable and deferred. Income tax relating to items recognised

directly in equity is recognised in equity.

Deferred Taxes

Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable temporary differences, and 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. Such assets and liabilities are not recognised if the

temporary difference arises from goodwill or from initial recognition (other than in business combination) of other assets

and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the taxable profit nor the accounting profit.

The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is reviewed at each Balance Sheet date and reduced to the extent that

it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred income tax asset to

be utilised. (Income tax relating to items recognised directly in equity is recognised in equity.)

Deferred Income Tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in which

the liability is settled or the asset realised, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantially

enacted by the Balance Sheet date.

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets

against current liabilities and when they relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority and intends to settle

them on a net basis.

Current Taxes

Current Income tax is based on the elements of income and expenditure as reported in the Financial Statements but is

computed in accordance with provisions of Inland Revenue Act No. 10 of 2006 and its subsequent amendments.

4.14 Value Added Tax on Financial Services

The base for the computation of Value Added Tax on Financial Services is the accounting profit before income tax

adjusted for the economic depreciation, emoluments of employees and computed on prescribed rates. During the year,

the Company’s total value addition was subject to a 20% Value Added Tax on financial services as per the Section 25 A of

Value Added Tax Act No. 14 of 2002 and amendments thereto.

4.15 Employee Retirement BenefitsDefined Benefit Plan - Gratuity

The Company is liable to pay gratuity in terms of the payment of Gratuity Act No. 12 of 1983, according to which an obligation

to pay gratuity arises only on completion of 5 years of continued service. A provision for the Company’s obligations under

this act is determined based on an actuarial valuation, using the projected unit credit method, carried out by a professional

actuary as at each Balance Sheet date. Actuarial gains and losses that exceed 10% of the greater of the present value of

defined benefit obligations are amortised over the expected average remaining working lives of the employees. This liability

is not externally funded.

SIGNIFICANT ACCoUNTING poLICIES

74 Commercial Credit Limited Introductory Document

Defined Contribution Plan - Employees’ Provident Fund and Employees’ Trust Fund

Employees are eligible for Employees’ Provident Fund contributions and Employees’ Trust Fund contributions in line with

respective statutes and regulations. The Company contributes the defined percentages of gross emoluments of employees

to an approved Employees’ Provident Fund and to the Employees’ Trust Fund respectively, which are externally funded.

4.16 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 Balance Sheet date, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. Where a provision is

measured using the cash flows estimated to settle the present obligation, its carrying amount is the present value of those

cash flows.

When some or all of the economic benefits required to settle a provision are expected to be recovered from a third party,

the 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.

4.17 Deposits from customers

Deposits include savers’ deposits and term deposits. They are recognised at the gross value of the outstanding balance.

Interest accrued is charged to the Income Statement.

4.18 Revenue RecognitionInterest Income - Advances

Interest income from advances is recognised on an accrual basis. Interest ceases to be taken into revenue when the

recovery of interest and/or principal is in arrears for six (6) months.

Interest Income - Lease / Hire purchase Receivables

Interest income on leasing is accounted for based on a pattern reflecting a constant periodic rate of return on capital

outstanding. The excess of aggregate lease/hire purchase rentals receivable over the cost of the leased/hire purchased

assets constitutes the total unearned lease interest/hire purchase income at the commencement of a lease/hire purchase.

The unearned lease/hire purchase interest income is taken into income over the term of the lease/hire purchase commencing

with the month in which the lease/hire purchase is executed in proportion to the declining receivable balance.

Interest income ceases to be taken to revenue when installments are in arrears for six months.

Interest Income - Investments

Interest income from investments is recognised on an accrual basis.

Interest Income - Non-performing Advances, Leases and Investments

Interest income on non-performing advances, investments and leases is accounted for on a cash basis.

Real Estate Income - outright Sales

Revenue is recognised when properties are sold and the buyer has taken possession of such properties.

SIGNIFICANT ACCoUNTING poLICIES

75Commercial Credit Limited Introductory Document

Real Estate Income - Sales Under Easy payment

Profit is recognised 100% on land sales under loans easy payment contracts upon the receipt of 30% down payment, even

before the transfer of risk and rewards to the buyer.

Dividend Income

Dividend income is recognised in the Income Statement when the Company’s right to receive the payment is established.

Rent Income

Rent income is recognised on accrual basis.

Commission Income

Commission income is recognised on cash basis.

Amortisation of Discount on Government Treasury Bills

The discount on the Treasury Bills is amortised over the period to the maturity.

Profit on Disposal of Assets

Profit earned on disposal of investment and seized assets are accounted for in the Income Statement based on realised

net profit.

4.19 Expenditure Recognition operating Expenses

All expenditure incurred in the running of the business and in maintaining the property and equipment in a state of efficiency

has been charged to revenue in arriving at the profit for the year.

For the purpose of presentation of the Income Statement, the “nature of expenses” method has been adopted, on the basis

that it presents fairly the elements of the Company’s performance.

4.20 Borrowing Costs

Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset that normally take

a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use or sale, are added to the cost of those assets, until such

time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale. Income earned from temporarily investing specific

borrowings pending their expenditure on a qualifying asset is deducted from the borrowing costs eligible to be added to

the carrying amount.

All other borrowing costs are recognised in profit or loss in the year in which they are incurred.

4.21 Segment Reporting

Business segment has been determined based on the nature of the service provided by the Company subject to risk and

rewards of each type of product.

Segment income and expenses are allocated to the segment to the extent that it is directly attributable to the segment or/

and allocated to the segment on a reasonable basis.

The activities of each of the reported business segments of the Company are detailed in Note 39.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of these Financial Statements are set out below.

The Directors have made an assessment of the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern in the foreseeable future,

and they do not intend to liquidate, cease or curtail the trading.

4.1 Financial Investments - Dealing Securities

Securities held for resale in the near future to benefit from short-term market movements are treated as dealing securities.

These investments are stated at lower of cost and market value determined on an aggregate portfolio basis, in total. The

cost of an Investment is the cost of acquisition inclusive of brokerages, duties and bank charges.

Financial Investments - Investment Securities

Investments acquired with the positive intent to hold on long-term basis, are classified as investment securities. These are

acquired and held for yield or capital growth in the long term and are recorded at cost net of provision for any diminution

in value which is non-temporary.

4.2 Investment in Treasury Bills Held to Maturity

Investment in Treasury Bills held to maturity is reflected at the value of bills purchased and the discount/premium accrued

thereon. Discount received/premium paid is taken to the Income Statement based on the pattern reflecting a constant

periodic rate of return.

4.3 Advances to Customers

Advances to customers represent loans and advances originated by the Company and are recognised when cash is

advanced to borrowers. They are de-recognised when either borrower repays their obligations, or the loans are sold or

written off, or substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are transferred. They are recorded at the amount disbursed.

SIgNIFICANT ACCoUNTINg poLICIES

107Commercial Credit Limited Introductory Document

4.4 Lease Receivables

Assets leased to customers under agreement that transfer substantially all the risk and rewards associated with ownership

other than legal title are classified as finance leases. Amounts receivable under finance leases are included under ‘lease

receivable’ and trade receivables. Leasing balances are stated in the Balance Sheet after deducting initial rentals received,

unearned lease income and the provisions for rentals doubtful of recovery.

4.5 Provision for Non-Performing Advances and Leases

Advances (including leases), which are 180 days or more in arrears of due capital and/or interest, are classified as

non-performing. Provision for such advances is recognised when there is adequate evidence of non-performance, as

determined by the management, and according to the directions issued by the Central Bank of Sri Lanka and Sri Lanka

Accounting Standard No. 33 - ‘Revenue Recognition and Disclosures in the Financial Statements of Finance Companies’.

Losses expected from future events are not recognised. Any provision identified is charged to the Income Statement and

the carrying amount of the loan on the Balance Sheet is reduced.

Thresholds used for making specific provisions for bad and doubtful debts:

Period outstanding Classification Provision as a percentage of net exposure

6-12 months Doubtful 50%12 months and over Loss 100%

Revenue Recognition on Non-Performing Advances and Leases

When an advance or a lease is classified as non-performing, interest income ceases to be recognised using the accrual

basis and is taken to income only on a cash basis.

4.6 InventoriesReal Estate

Real estates are valued at cost or net realisable value whichever is lower. Cost includes all expenses necessary to bring

the real estate to the condition as at the Balance Sheet date. Net realisable value is the price at which inventories can be

sold in the ordinary course of business less estimated costs of completion and estimated costs necessary to make the sale.

Other Inventories

These are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value.

4.7 Hire Purchase Receivables

Assets purchased by customers under agreements that transfer substantially all the risks and rewards associated with

ownership other than legal title are classified as hire purchase receivables. Hire purchase receivables in the Balance Sheet

include total hire purchase instalments due net of unearned interest and provision for doubtful debts.

4.8 Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and Cash Equivalents include cash in hand, balances with banks and short-term highly liquid investments, readily

convertible to known amounts of cash and subject to insignificant risk of changes in value.

For the purpose of Cash Flow Statement cash and cash equivalent consists of cash in hand and deposits in banks net of

outstanding bank overdrafts. The Cash Flow Statement is reported based on the direct method.

4.9 properties and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost or valuation less subsequent accumulated depreciation and any subsequent

accumulated impairment losses. All items of property and equipment are initially recorded at cost. The cost of property and

equipment is the cost of acquisition or construction together with any expenses incurred in bringing the asset to its condition

SIgNIFICANT ACCoUNTINg poLICIES

108 Commercial Credit Limited Introductory Document

for its intended use. Where items of property and equipment are subsequently revalued, the entire class of such assets is

revalued. The Company has adopted a policy of revaluing assets every 5 years. When an asset is revalued, any increase in

the carrying amount is credited directly to a revaluation reserve, except to the extent that it reverses a revaluation decrease

of the same asset previously recognised in the Income Statement, in which case the increase is recognised in the Income

Statement. Any revaluation deficit that offsets a previous surplus in the same asset is directly offset against the surplus in

the revaluation reserve and any excess recognised as an expense. Upon disposal, any revaluation reserve relating to the

asset sold is transferred to retained earnings.

Items of property and equipment are de-recognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from

its use. Any gain or loss arising on de-recognition of the asset is included in the Income Statement in the year the asset is

de-recognised.

Subsequent expenditure incurred for the purpose of acquiring, extending or improving assets of a permanent nature

by means of which to carry on the business or to increase the earning capacity of the business are treated as capital

expenditure.

Depreciation

Depreciation is provided on written down value basis to write off net book value of all the assests appropriate to the

estimated useful lives of the different type of assets.

Building 2%Motor vehicles 25%Furniture and fittings 12.5%Office equipment 12.5%Computers 20%Photocopy/fax machines 12.5%Air-conditioners 12.5%Generators 12.5%

4.10 Intangible Assets4.10.1 Basis of Recognition

Intangible asset is recognised if it is probable that the future economic benefits that are attributable to the asset will flow

to the entity and the cost of the assets can be measured reliably in accordance with Sri Lanka Accounting Standard

No. 37 on ‘Intangible Assets’. Accordingly, these assets are stated in the Balance Sheet at cost less accumulated

amortisation and impairment losses.

4.10.2 Subsequent Expenditure

Subsequent expenditure on intangible asset is capitalised only when it increases the future economic benefits embodied

in these assets. All other expenditure is expensed as incurred.

4.10.3 Amortisation

The useful lives of intangible assets are assessed to be either finite or infinite. Intangible assets with finite lives are

amortised over the useful economic life. The amortisation period and the amortisation method for an intangible asset with

a finite useful life are reviewed at least each financial year end. Changes in the expected useful life or the expected pattern

of consumption of future economic benefits embodied in the asset are accounted for by changing the amortisation period

or method, as appropriate and are treated as changes in accounting estimates. The amortisation expense on intangible

assets with finite lives is recognised in the Income Statement in the expenses category consistent with the function of

intangible asset.

SIgNIFICANT ACCoUNTINg poLICIES

109Commercial Credit Limited Introductory Document

4.10.4 Computer Software

Computer software is stated at cost less accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment loss. Amortisation is

made at 25% per annum on cost.

4.11 Lease Hold Assets

Leases are classified as finance leases whenever terms of the lease transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of

ownership to the lessee. All other leases are classified as operating leases.

Finance Leases

Assets held under finance leases are initially recognised as assets of the Company at their fair value at the inception of the

lease or, if lower, at the present value of the minimum lease payments. The corresponding liability to the lessor is included

in the Balance Sheet as a finance lease obligation.

Lease payments are apportioned between finance charges and reduction of the lease obligation so as to achieve a constant

rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. Finance charges are charged directly to Income Statement, unless

they are directly attributable to qualifying assets, in which case they are capitalised in accordance with the Company’s

general policy on borrowing costs (see Note 4.17). Contingent rentals are recognised as expenses in the periods in which

they are incurred.

operating Leases

Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term, except where

another systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern in which economic benefits from the leased asset are

consumed. Contingent rentals arising under operating leases are recognised as an expense in the period in which they

are incurred.

4.12 Impairment 4.12.1 Financial Assets

In addition to the provision made for possible loan losses based on the parameters and directives for the specific and

general provisions on loans and advances by the Central Bank of Sri Lanka, the Company reviews its loans and advances

portfolio at each reporting date to assess whether a further allowance for impairment should be provided in the Income

Statement. The judgment by the management is required in the estimation of these amounts and such estimates are based

on assumptions about a number of factors through actual results may differ, resulting in future changes to the provisions.

4.12.2 Impairment of Non-Financial Assets

At each Balance Sheet date, the Company reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible and intangible assets to determine

whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the

recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). Where it is not

possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Company estimates the recoverable amount of the

cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. Where a reasonable and consistent basis of allocation can be identified,

corporate assets are also allocated to individual cash-generating units, or otherwise they are allocated to the smallest

group of cash-generating units for which a reasonable and consistent allocation basis can be identified.

If the recoverable amount of an asset (or cash-generating unit) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the

carrying amount of the asset (cash-generating unit) is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised

immediately in the Income Statement, unless the relevant asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the

impairment loss is treated as a revaluation decrease.

SIgNIFICANT ACCoUNTINg poLICIES

110 Commercial Credit Limited Introductory Document

4.13 Income Taxes

Income tax expense represents the sum of taxes currently payable and deferred. Income tax relating to items recognised

directly in equity is recognised in equity.

Deferred Taxes

Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable temporary differences, and 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. Such assets and liabilities are not recognised if the

temporary difference arises from goodwill or from initial recognition (other than in business combination) of other assets

and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the taxable profit nor the accounting profit.

The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is reviewed at each Balance Sheet date and reduced to the extent that

it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred income tax asset to

be utilised. (Income tax relating to items recognised directly in equity is recognised in equity.)

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in which the

liability is settled or the asset realised, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantially enacted

by the Balance Sheet date.

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets

against current liabilities and when they relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority and intends to settle

them on a net basis.

Current Taxes

Current income tax is based on the elements of income and expenditure as reported in the Financial Statements, but is

computed in accordance with provisions of Inland Revenue Act No. 10 of 2006 and its subsequent amendments.

4.14 Value Added Tax on Financial Services

The base for the computation of Value Added Tax on financial services is the accounting profit before income tax adjusted for

the economic depreciation, emoluments of employees and computed on prescribed rates. During the year, the Company’s

total value addition was subject to a 20% Value Added Tax on financial services as per the Section 25 A of Value Added

Tax Act No. 14 of 2002 and amendments thereto.

4.15 Employee Retirement BenefitsDefined Benefit Plan - Gratuity

The Company is liable to pay gratuity in terms of the payment of Gratuity Act No. 12 of 1983, according to which an obligation

to pay gratuity arises only on completion of 5 years of continued service. A provision for the Company’s obligations under

this act is determined based on an actuarial valuation, using the Projected Unit Credit Method, carried out by a professional

actuary as at each Balance Sheet date. Actuarial gains and losses that exceed 10% of the greater of the present value of

defined benefit obligations are mortised over the expected average remaining working lives of the employees. This liability

is not externally funded.

Defined Contribution Plan - Employees’ Provident Fund and Employees’ Trust Fund

Employees are eligible for Employees’ Provident Fund contributions and Employees’ Trust Fund contributions in line with

respective statutes and regulations. The Company contributes the defined percentages of gross emoluments of employees

to an approved Employees’ Provident Fund and to the Employees’ Trust Fund respectively, which are externally funded.

SIgNIFICANT ACCoUNTINg poLICIES

111Commercial Credit Limited Introductory Document

4.16 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 Balance Sheet date, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. Where a provision is

measured using the cash flows estimated to settle the present obligation, its carrying amount is the present value of those

cash flows.

When some or all of the economic benefits required to settle a provision are expected to be recovered from a third party,

the 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.

4.17 Deposits from Customers

Deposits include savers’ deposits and term deposits. They are recognised at the gross value of the outstanding balance.

Interest accrued is charged to the Income Statement.

4.18 Revenue RecognitionInterest Income - Advances

Interest income from advances is recognised on an accrual basis. Interest ceases to be taken into revenue when the

recovery of interest and/or principal is in arrears for six (6) months.

Interest Income - Lease/Hire Purchase Receivables

Interest income on leasing is accounted based on a pattern reflecting a constant periodic rate of return on capital outstanding.

The excess of aggregate lease/hire purchase rentals receivable over the cost of the leased/hire purchase assets constitutes

the total unearned lease interest/hire purchase income at the commencement of a lease/hire purchase. The unearned

lease/hire purchase interest income is taken into income over the term of the lease/hire purchase commencing with the

month in which the lease/hire purchase is executed in proportion to the declining receivable balance.

Interest income ceases to be taken to revenue when instalments are in arrears for six months.

Interest Income - Investments

Interest income from investments is recognised on an accrual basis.

Interest Income - Non-Performing Advances, Leases and Investments

Interest income on non-performing advances, investments and leases is accounted for on a cash basis.

Real Estate Income - Outright Sales

Revenue is recognised when properties are sold and the buyer has taken possession of such properties. When there is

insufficient assurance as to the receipt of the total consideration, income is accounted for on a cash received basis.

Real Estate Income - Sales Under Easy Payment

Profit is recognised 100% on land sales under loans easy payment contracts upon the receipt of 30% down payment, even

before the transfer of risk and rewards to the buyer.

SIgNIFICANT ACCoUNTINg poLICIES

112 Commercial Credit Limited Introductory Document

Dividend Income

Dividend income is recognised in the Income Statement when the Company’s right to receive the payment is established.

Rent Income

Rent income is recognised on accrual basis.

Commission Income

Commission income is recognised on cash basis.

Amortisation of Discount on Government Treasury Bills

The discount on the Treasury Bill is amortised over the period to the maturity.

Profit on Disposal of Assets

Profit earned on disposal of investment and seised assets are accounted for in the Income Statement based on realised

net profit.

4.19 Expenditure Recognition operating Expenses

All expenditure incurred in the running of the business and in maintaining the Property, Plant & Equipment in a state of

efficiency has been charged to revenue in arriving at the profit for the year.

For the purpose of presentation of the Income Statement, the ‘nature of expenses’ method has been adopted, on the basis

that it presents fairly the elements of the Company performance.

4.20 Borrowing Costs

Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset that normally take

a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use or sale, are added to the cost of those assets, until such

time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale. Income earned from temporarily investing specific

borrowings pending their expenditure on a qualifying asset is deducted from the borrowing costs eligible to be added to

the carrying amount.
