Derecognition of financial liabilities
The Group derecognises a financial liability when the contractual obligations are discharged, or cancelled or expire. The
Group also derecognises the financial liability when its terms are modified and the cashflows of the modified liability
are substantially different, in which case a new financial liability based on the new terms is recognised at fair value. On
derecognition of a financial liability, the difference between the carrying amount extinguished and the consideration paid
(including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed) is recognised in profit or loss
