1) Interest expenses and Interest incomes are the items that arises from Investing activities and Dividend income arises from financial activities.So we shows these item in their respective head in Cash Flow............2) we arrives at net profit after adjustment of Interest expenses , Interest incomes, Dividend income. which are non operational items So we have to first adjust them to find the cash flow from operational activities.
As per para 19 of AS 3:
 
Under the direct method, information about major classes of gross cash receipts and gross cash payments may be obtained either :
 
- from the accounting records of the enterprise; or
 
- by adjusting sales, cost of sales (interest and similar income and interest expense and similar charges for a financial enterprise) and other items in the statement of profit and loss for:
 
              (i) changes during the period in inventories and operating receivables              and payables;
 
(ii) other non-cash items; and
 
(iii) other items for which the cash effects are investing or                             financing cash flows.
 

Respected Sivaram sir,

 As the marked items of Interest Income And Dividend Income  are Investing Cash Flow items and Interest Expense is  Finacing Cash Flow items these are added back to Profit for computing the Operating Cash Flow.  and shown in appropriate head.

WE ARE TO FIND OPERATING CASH FLOW..........

SO UNDER INDIRECT METHOD WE HAVE TO ADD BACK ALL NON-OPERATING ITEMS  OF CASHFLOW

(ie., financing and investing cashflow)

THIS IS MY VIEW!!!........SIR!........................
