Acquisition through business combinations for the year ended March 31, 2018, includes goodwill recognized on four acquisitions. Also refer Note 6 to the consolidated financial statements. The Company is organized by two operating segments: IT Services and IT Products. Goodwill as at March 31, 2017 and 2018 has been allocated to the IT Services operating segment. Goodwill recognized on business combinations is allocated to Cash Generating Units (CGUs), within the IT Services operating segment, which are expected to benefit from the synergies of the acquisitions. Goodwill has been allocated to the CGUs as at March 31, 2017 and 2018 as follows:
CGUs |  | As at March 31, 2017 |  |  | As at March 31, 2018 |
Banking Financial Services and Insurance (BFSI) |  | ₹ | 19,826 |  |  | ₹ | 17,475 |
Healthcare and Life Sciences (HLS) |  |  | 48,144 |  |  |  | 49,085 |
Consumer (CBU) |  |  | 17,442 |  |  |  | 14,776 |

For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill is allocated to a CGU representing the lowest level within the Group at which goodwill is monitored for internal management purposes, and which is not higher than the Company’s operating segment. Goodwill is tested for impairment at least annually in accordance with the Company’s procedure for determining the recoverable value of each CGU. The recoverable amount of the CGU is determined on the basis of Fair Value Less Cost of Disposal (FVLCD). The FVLCD of the CGU is determined based on the market capitalization approach, using the turnover and earnings multiples derived from observable market data. The fair value measurement is categorized as a level 2 fair value based on the inputs in the valuation techniques used. Based on the above testing, no impairment was identified as at March 31, 2017 and 2018 as the recoverable value of the CGUs exceeded the carrying value. Further, none of the CGU’s tested for impairment as at March 31, 2017 and 2018 were at risk of impairment. An analysis of the calculation’s sensitivity to a change in the key parameters (turnover and earnings multiples), did not identify any probable scenarios where the CGU’s recoverable amount would fall below its carrying amount.
