Integrated Annual Report 2024-25 370 2. Material Accounting Policy Information (Continued) Incremental costs of acquisition of the members are deferred over the period of effective membership in line with revenue deferral. Incremental costs are those that would not have been incurred if the contract was not obtained. Such cost which will be amortised in the future period are disclosed under deferred acquisition cost. Revenue is recognised only when it is probable that economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the Group. Revenue with respect to instalments / contracts where there is an uncertainty about collectability, is deferred (even though the membership is not cancelled). The estimation of such revenues where there is uncertainty in collection has been made by the Group based on past trends of year-wise cancellation of memberships and considering factors impacting future collections. Revenue from Annual subscription fees Annual subscription fee dues from members are recognised as income on accrual basis and fees pertaining to the period beyond the year end is disclosed under Contract Liabilities and payment is due as per due date mentioned in invoice.
