The cost and related accumulated depreciation of assets sold or otherwise retired are eliminated from the accounts and any gain or loss is included in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to earnings as incurred, while additions, renewals and betterments, which are expected to extend the useful life of assets, are capitalized. The Company also re-evaluates the periods of depreciation to determine whether subsequent events and circumstances warrant revised estimates of useful lives.

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets with definite lives are initially recorded at cost. Amortization of definite-lived intangible assets is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated average useful lives. Intangible assets with indefinite lives should not be amortized but should be tested for impairment at least annually or when event occurs or circumstances that could indicate that the asset might be impaired.

The estimated useful lives of intangible assets are as follows:

                              Useful life  
  Proprietary technology      5 years      
  Customer relationships      5 years      

Impairment of Long-lived Assets other than goodwill

The Company reviews long-lived assets, including definite-lived intangible assets, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If the estimated cash flows from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition are below the asset’s carrying value, then the asset is deemed to be impaired and written down to its fair value. The Company recorded impairment of intangible asset amounted to $1,108,333 as of March 31, 2025 and there were no impairments of these assets as of March 31, 2024.

Right-of-use assets

The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease and determines the classification of the lease, as either operating or finance, at commencement. The Company has operating leases for office buildings and has no finance leases as of March 31, 2025 and 2024. Operating lease ROU assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the lease payments over the lease term at commencement date.

As the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, an incremental borrowing rate is used based on the information available at the commencement date, to determine the present value of lease payments. The incremental borrowing rate approximates the rate the Company would pay to borrow in the currency of the lease payments for the weighted-average life of the lease.
