Profit or Loss Query

I have one basic doubt regarding profit or loss.
For example
In “profit/loss for the period” in the attached image.
Does loss / profit carry forward to next year ? i.e

loss in march 2013 = -34.56 cr
loss in march 2014 = -29.53 cr

Does the above mean : covered loss of 5.03 cr ?
or
total loss of march 2013 and march 2014 = -34.56 -29.53 = -64.09 cr ?

So total loss till now from march 2013 to march 2017 = -231.28 cr ?
or
It’s just -6.84 cr ?


P&l r specific to that yr and they impact company’s reserves at year end
Profits add to d reserves, losses reduce them.
U may only infer that compared to 2013, losses have reduced by 5.03 cr or by 14.55% in yr 2014
