Sensitivity analysis

 

Reasonably possible changes at the reporting date to one of the relevant actuarial assumptions, holding other assumptions constant, would have affected the defined benefit obligation by the amounts shown below:

  

   March 31, 
   2022   2023 
a) Impact of the change in discount rate        
a) Impact due to increase of 0.50 %   920    1,032 
b) Impact due to decrease of 0.50 %   (952)   (1,069)
           
b) Impact of the change in salary increase          
a) Impact due to increase of 0.50 %   (1,018)   (1,083)
b) Impact due to decrease of 0.50 %   1,105    1,059 

 

The sensitivity analyses above have been determined based on a method that extrapolates the impact on the defined benefit obligation as a result of reasonable changes in key assumptions occurring at the end of the reporting period. These analysis are based on a change in a significant assumption, keeping all other assumptions constant and may not be representative of an actual change in the defined benefit obligation as it is unlikely that changes in assumptions would occur in isolation of one another.

 

The following payments are expected contributions to the defined benefit plan in future years:

 

   March 31, 
   2022   2023 
Year 1   40,306    38,753 
Year 2   15,206    13,545 
Year 3   7,370    6,942 
Year 4   4,080    5,042 
Year 5   3,495    4,867 
Year 6-10   13,351    18,198 
Total expected payments   83,808    87,347
