As regards the assessment of materiality of an item in preparing interim financial statements, paragraph 25
        of  Ind  AS  34,  Interim  Financial  Statements,  states  that  while  judgement  is  always  required  in  assessing
        materiality, this Standard bases the recognition and disclosure decision on data for the interim period by itself

        for reasons of understandability of the interim figures. Thus, for example, unusual items, changes in accounting
        policies or estimates, and errors are recognised and disclosed on the basis of materiality in relation to interim
        period  data  to  avoid  misleading  inferences  that  might  result  from  non-disclosure.  The  overriding  goal  is  to
        ensure that an interim financial report includes all information that is relevant to understanding an entity‖s
        financial position and performance during the interim period.

        As per the above, while materiality judgements always involve a degree of subjectivity, the overriding goal is to
        ensure that an interim financial report includes all the information that is relevant to an understanding of the
        financial position and performance of the entity during the interim period. It is therefore not appropriate to
        base  quantitative  assessments  of  materiality  on  projected  annual  figures  when  evaluating  errors  in  interim
        financial statements.

        Accordingly, the management is required to correct the error in the interim financial statements since it is
        assessed to be material in relation to interim period data.
