2. Summary of Material Accounting Policies
The Ind AS Financial Statements comprise of the Audited Statement of Assets and Liabilities as at March 31, 2024 and as at March 31, 2023, the related Audited Ind AS Statement of Profit and Loss (including Other Comprehensive Income), the Statement of Changes in Equity, and the Statement of Cash Flows for the year ended March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023 respectively and the Significant Accounting Policies and Other Financial Information.
These Standalone Financial Statements have been prepared in terms of the requirements of: (a) Section 26 of Part I of Chapter III of the Companies Act, 2013 (the “Act”); (b) relevant provisions of the SEBI ICDR Regulations; and (c) the Guidance Note on Reports in Company Prospectuses (Revised 2019) issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI) (the “Guidance Note”).
2.1 Basis of preparation and presentation of financial statements
Compliance with Ind AS
The Standalone Financial Statements are prepared in accordance with Indian Accounting Standards ("Ind AS"), under the historical cost convention on the accrual basis except for certain financial instruments which are measured at fair values. The Ind AS are prescribed under Section 133 of the Act read with the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015, as amended and other relevant provisions of the Act.
Effective April 1, 2018, the Company has adopted all the Ind AS and the adoption has been carried out in accordance with Ind AS 101, First Time Adoption of Indian Accounting Standards, with April 1, 2018 a the transition date. The transition was carried out from Indian Accounting Principles generally accepted in India as prescribed under Section 133 of the Act, which was the previous GAAP.
A. Basis of preparation
(i) The Audited Ind AS Statement of Assets and Liabilities of the Company as at March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023 respectively and the Audited Ind AS Statement of Profit and Loss, Audited Ind AS Statement of Changes in Equity and Audited Ind AS Statement of Cash Flows for the year ended March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023 respectively (hereinafter collectively referred to as “Ind AS Financial Information”) have been prepared under Indian Accounting Standards ("Ind AS") notified under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 (the "Act") and other relevant provisions of the Act as amended from time to time.
(ii) The audited financial statements of the Company as at and for the year ended March 31, 2024 prepared in accordance with recognition and measurement principles under Indian Accounting Standard (‘Ind AS’) 34 "Interim Financial Reporting", specified under section 133 of the Act and other accounting principles generally accepted in India, which have been approved by the Board of Directors at their meeting held on May 21, 2024.
The Board of Directors approved the Financial Statements as per the Ind AS, for the year ended on March 31, 2024 along with Financial Statements for the year ended March 31, 2023 and authorised to issue the same vide resolution passed in the Board Meeting held on May 21, 2024.
B. Basis of measurement
The Financial Statements have been prepared on historical cost basis considering the applicable provisions of Companies Act 2013. The exceptions to the same are:
• certain financial assets and liabilities (including derivative instruments) that are measured at fair value; and
• net defined benefit (asset) / liability that are measured at fair value of plan assets less present value of define benefit obligations.
C. Current and non-current classification of assets and liabilities
The Assets and Liabilities and the Statement of Profit & Loss, including related notes, are prepared and presented as per the requirements of Schedule III (Division II) to the Companies Act, 2013. All assets and liabilities have been classified and disclosed as current or non-current as per the Company’s normal operating cycle and other criteria set out in Schedule III. Based on the nature of products and the time between the acquisition of assets for processing and their realization into cash and cash equivalents, the Company has ascertained its operating cycle as twelve months for the purpose of current - non current classification of assets and liabilities.
D. Functional and presentation currency
The functional and presentation currency in these Financial Statements is INR and all amounts are rounded to nearest MM, up to 2 decimal places, unless otherwise stated.
E. Use of judgements, estimates and assumptions The preparation of Financial Statements in conformity with Ind AS requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect
the reported amounts of revenue, expenses, current assets, non-current assets, current liabilities, non¬ current liabilities and the disclosure of the contingent liabilities on the date of the preparation of Financial Statements. Such estimates are on a reasonable and prudent basis considering all available information, however due to uncertainties about these judgements, estimates and assumptions, the actual results could differ from those estimates. Information about each of these estimates and judgements is included in relevant notes. Any revision to accounting estimates is recognised prospectively in current and future periods.
Judgements
Information about judgements made in applying accounting policies that have the most significant effects on the amounts recognised in the Financial Statements is included in the following notes:
Note No. 44 - classification of financial assets: assessment of business model within which the assets are held and assessment of whether the contractual terms of the financial assets are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
Assumption and estimation of uncertainties
Information about assumptions and estimation uncertainties that have a significant risk of resulting in a material adjustment, assumptions and estimation uncertainties are provided here, whereas the quantitative break-ups for the same are provided in the notes mentioned below:
• Note 3 and Note 6: Useful life of depreciable assets, Property, Plant and Equipment and Other Intangible Assets
• Note 38: Recognition of contingencies, key assumptions about the likelihood and magnitude of outflow of resources
• Note 37: Recognition of tax expenses including deferred tax
• Note 46: Defined benefit obligation, key actuarial assumptions
• Note 12: Impairment of trade receivables
• Note 10: Valuation of Inventories
Going concern assumption
These Financial Statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. The management has, given the
significant uncertainties arising out of the various situations, assessed the cash flow projections and available liquidity for a period of at least twelve months from the date of this Financial Statements. Based on this evaluation, management believes that the Company will be able to continue as a "going concern" in the foreseeable future and for a period of at least twelve months from the date of these Financial Statements based on the following:
• Expected future operating cash flows based on business projections, and
• Available credit facilities with its bankers
Based on the above factors, the management has concluded that the "going concern" assumption is appropriate. Accordingly, the Financial Statements do not include any adjustments regarding the recoverability and classification of the carrying amount of assets and classification of liabilities that might result, should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
On November 29, 2023, an accidental fire broke out at our Manufacturing Facility - II which is situated at Plot No. 8203, Road No. 8, GIDC Industrial Estate, Sachin, Surat - 394230, Gujarat (India).
This fire accident has adversely impacted the Manufacturing Facility 2, mainly damaging Plant 2 (fully), Plan 1 and Tank Farm (partially). This Site - II had been contributing the major share to revenue from operations and hence, the fire accident has hampered the revenues of the Company in FY 2023-24, as the entire Site - II was closed for at least three months. Revocation permission for unaffected plants at Site - II were received from GPCB and DISH, which helped the Company revive the Site for last month only.
The Company has, due to this fire accident, suffered loss of Fixed Assets (Plant & Machinery, Equipment, Furniture & Fixtures, and others), Inventories (mostly Semi Finished and Finished Goods at the shop floor) and Loss of Profit.
The Company is adequately insured to the extent of damage occurred in the fire accident, including impacted property, plant & equipment, inventories and the loss of profit.
The impact of loss is being assessed for the fixed assets and the survey is ongoing by the insurance surveyor, hence the loss is yet to be ascertained. Loss
of inventory is Rs. 138.97 MM due to this fire accident, which has been assessed and written off for in FY 2023-24 itself. The claim will be settled in the coming FY 2024-25. Insurance claim for loss of profit, will be assessed once the claim for fixed assets and inventory is settled in FY 2024-25.
Final claim amount from the Insurance Company will be completed in FY 2024-25 and any gain / loss will be booked in the said financial year.
This fire accident has not affected our "Going Concern" assumption. Accordingly, the Company will continue as a going concern.
Reclassification
The company reclassifies comparative amounts, unless impracticable and whenever the company changes the presentation or classification of items in its financial statements materially. No such material reclassification has been made during the year.
2.2 Property, Plant And Equipment
Recognition and measurement
The Company has elected to continue with the carrying value of Property, Plant and Equipment (‘PPE’) recognised as of transition date measured as per the Previous GAAP and use that carrying value as its deemed cost of the PPE as on the transition date.
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Cost includes purchase price (after deducting trade discount / rebate), non-refundable import duties and taxes, cost of replacing the component parts, borrowing costs and other directly attributable cost to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management.
Spares parts procured along with the Plant and Equipment or subsequently having value of Rs. 50,000 or more individually which meets the recognition criteria of PPE are capitalized and added to the carrying amount of such items. The carrying amount of those spare parts that are replaced are de¬ recognized when no future economic benefits are expected from their use or upon disposal. If the cost of the replaced part is not available, the estimated cost of similar new parts is used as an indication of what the cost of the existing part was when the item was acquired.
An item of PPE is de-recognised on disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from use. Any profit or loss arising on the de-recognition of an item of property, plant and equipment is determined as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and is recognized in Statement of Profit and Loss.
Subsequent costs
The cost of replacing a part of an item of property, plant and equipment is recognised in the carrying amount of the item if it is probable that the future economic benefits embodied within the part will flow to the Company and its cost can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced part is de¬ recognised. The cost of the day-to-day servicing the property, plant and equipment are recognised in the statement of profit and loss as incurred.
Disposal
An item of property, plant and equipment is de¬ recognised upon the disposal or when no future benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Gains and losses on disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment are determined by comparing the proceeds from disposal with the carrying amount of property, plant and equipment, and are recognised net within other income / expenses in the statement of profit and loss.
Depreciation
The depreciable amount of an asset is determined after deducting its residual value. Where the residual value of an asset increases to an amount equal to or greater than the asset’s carrying amount, no depreciation charge is recognised till the asset’s residual value decreases below the asset’s carrying amount. Depreciation of an asset begins when it is available for use, i.e., when it is in the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the intended manner. Depreciation of an asset ceases at the earlier of the date that the asset is classified as held for sale in accordance with IND AS 105 and the date that the asset is de-recognised.
The insurance claim is being assessed at the moment and hence, the depreciation as per the Companies Act, 2013 and the Income Tax Act, 1961 is being continued
Impairments of non-financial assets
The Company assesses at each balance sheet date whether there is any indication that an asset or cash generating unit (CGU) may be impaired. Indefinite life intangibles are subject to a review for impairment annually or more frequently if events or circumstances indicate that it is necessary. If any such indication exists, the Company estimates the recoverable amount of the asset. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset's or CGU's fair value less costs of disposal or its value in use. Where the carrying amount of an asset or CGU exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount.
In assessing the value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. In determining the fair value less costs of disposal, recent market transactions are considered.
An impairment loss is recognised if the carrying amount of an asset or CGU exceeds its recoverable amount, Impairment losses are recognised in the statement of profit and loss.
If at the balance sheet date there is an indication that a previously assessed impairment loss no longer exists, an impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset's carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortisation, if no impairment loss had been recognised.
2.3 Intangible assets
Recognition and measurement
Intangible assets are recognised when the asset is identifiable, is within the control of the Company, it is probable that the future economic benefits that are attributable to the asset will flow to the Company and cost of the asset can be reliably measured.
Intangible assets acquired separately are measured on initial recognition at cost. The cost of intangible assets acquired in a business combination is their fair value at the date of acquisition. Intangible assets acquired by the Company that have finite useful lives are measured at cost less accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses. Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are not amortised, but are tested for impairment annually, either individually or at the cash-generating unit level.
Expenditure on Research activities is recognised in the statement of Profit and Loss as incurred. Development expenditure is capitalised only if the expenditure can be measured reliably, the product or process is technically and commercially feasible, future economic benefits are probable, and the Company intends to complete development and to use or sell the asset.
Intangible assets which comprise of the development expenditure incurred on new product and expenditure incurred on acquisition of user licenses for computer software are recorded at their acquisition price.
Subsequent measurement
Subsequent expenditure is capitalised only when it increases the future economic benefits embodied in the specific asset to which it relates.
Amortisation
The useful lives of intangible sets are assessed as either finite of indefinite.
intangible assets i. e., computer software is amortized on a straight-line basis over the period of expected future benefits commencing from the date the asset is available for its use.
The management has estimated the useful life of the intangible Assets as mentioned below:
Asset Class Years
Software & Licenses 6
Trade Marks 4
Other Assets 4
Amortisation method, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at the end of each financial year and adjusted if appropriate.
intangible assets are assessed for impairment whenever there is an indication that the intangible asset may be impaired.
Disposal
Gains or losses arising from de-recognition of an intangible asset are measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and are recognised in the statement of profit and loss when the asset is de¬ recognized.
2.4. Financial Assets
A. Fair Value Assessment
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date, regardless of whether that price is directly observable or estimated using another valuation technique. In estimating the fair value of an asset or a liability, the Company takes into account the characteristics of asset and liability if market participants would take those into consideration. Fair value for measurement and / or disclosure purposes in these Financial Statements is determined in such basis except for transactions in the scope of Ind AS 2, 17 and 36. Normally at initial recognition, the transaction price is the best evidence of fair value.
The fair value of an asset or a liability is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, assuming that market participants act in their economic best interest.
A fair value measurement of a non-financial asset takes into account a market participant’s ability to generate economic benefits by using the asset in its highest and best use or by selling it to another market participant that would use the asset in its highest and best use.
The Company uses valuation techniques those are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available to measure fair value, maximizing the use of relevant observable inputs and minimizing the use of unobservable inputs.
All financial assets and financial liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the Financial Statements are categorized within the fair value hierarchy, described as follows, based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole.
B. Subsequent Measurement
For purposes of subsequent measurement financial assets are classified in three categories:
• Financial assets measured at amortized cost
• Financial assets at fair value through OCi
• Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
C. Financial assets measured at amortized cost
Financial assets are measured at amortized cost if the financials asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows and the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. These financials assets are amortized using the effective interest rate (‘EIR’) method, less impairment. Amortized cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of the EIR. The EIR amortization is included in finance income in the Statement of Profit And Loss. The losses arising from impairment are recognized in the Statement of Profit And Loss.
D. Financial assets at fair value through OCI (‘FVTOCI’)
Financial assets are measured at fair value through other comprehensive income if the financial asset is held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets and the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. At initial recognition, an irrevocable election is made (on an instrument-by-instrument basis) to designate investments in equity instruments other than held for trading purpose at FVTOCI. Fair value changes are recognized in the other comprehensive income (‘OCI’). However, the Company recognizes interest income, impairment losses and reversals and foreign exchange gain or loss in the Statement of Profit And Loss. On de-recognition of the financial asset other than equity instruments designated as FVTOCI, cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in OCI is reclassified to the Statement of Profit and Loss.
E. Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss (‘FVTPL’)
Any financial asset that does not meet the criteria for classification as at amortized cost or as financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income is classified as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss. Further, financial assets at fair value through profit or loss also include financial assets held for trading and financial assets designated upon initial recognition at fair value through profit or loss. Financial assets are classified as held for trading if they are acquired for the purpose of selling or repurchasing in the near term. Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are fair valued at each reporting date with all the changes recognized in the Statement of Profit And Loss.
F. De-recognition
The Company de-recognises a financial asset only when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire, or when it transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the asset to another entity. If the Company neither transfers nor retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership and continues to control the financial asset, the Company recognizes its retained interest in the asset and an associated liability for amounts it may have to pay.
G. Impairment of Financial Assets
The Company assesses impairment based on expected credit loss (‘ECL’) model on the following:
• Financial assets that are measured at amortised cost; and
• Financial assets measured at FVTOCI
ECL is measured through a loss allowance on a following basis:
• The 12 month expected credit losses (expected credit losses that result from those default events on the financial instruments that are possible within
• 12 months after the reporting date)
• Full life time expected credit losses (expected credit losses that result from all possible default events over the life of financial instruments)
2.5. Financial Liabilities
The Company’s financial liabilities include trade payable.
A. Initial recognition and measurement
All financial liabilities at initial recognition are classified as financial liabilities at amortized cost or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, as appropriate. All financial liabilities classified at amortized cost are recognized initially at fair value net of directly attributable transaction costs. Any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the fair value at initial recognition is recognised in the Statement of Profit And Loss.
B. Subsequent measurement
The subsequent measurement of financial liabilities depends upon the classification as described below:-
(i) Financial Liabilities classified as Amortised Cost - Financial Liabilities that are not held for trading and are not designated as at FVTPL are measured at amortised cost at the end of subsequent accounting periods. Amortised cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of the EIR. Interest expense that is not capitalized as part of costs of assets is included as Finance costs in the Statement of Profit And Loss.
(ii) Financial Liabilities classified as FVTPL - Financial liabilities classified as FVTPL includes financial liabilities held for trading and financial liabilities
designated upon initial recognition as FVTPL. Financial liabilities are classified as held for trading if they are incurred for the purpose of repurchasing in the near term. Financial liabilities designated upon initial recognition at FVTPL only if the criteria in Ind AS 109 is satisfied.
Exports benefits are accounted for in the year of exports based on the eligibility and when there is certainty of receiving the same.
(iii) De-recognition - A financial liability is de¬ recognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged / cancelled / expired. When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as the de recognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability. The difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognized in the Statement of Profit And Loss.
(iv) Offsetting of financial instruments - Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the balance sheet if there is a currently enforceable legal right to offset the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis, to realise the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.
Other incomes, other than interest and dividend are recognized when the same are due to be received and right to receive such other income is established.
2.6. Share Capital and Share Premium
Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares are shown in equity as a deduction net of tax from the proceeds. Par value of the equity share is recorded as share capital and the amount received in excess of the par value is classified as share premium.
2.7. Dividend Distribution to equity shareholders
The Company recognizes a liability to make cash distributions to equity holders when the distribution is authorized and the distribution is no longer at the discretion of the Company. As per the corporate laws in India, a distribution is authorized when it is approved by the shareholders. A corresponding amount is recognized directly in other equity.
2.8. Cash Flows and Cash and Cash Equivalents
Statement of cash flows is prepared in accordance with the indirect method prescribed in the relevant IND AS. For the purpose of presentation in the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, cheques and drafts on hand, deposits held with Banks, other short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value, and book overdrafts. However, Book overdrafts are to be shown within borrowings in current liabilities in the balance sheet for the purpose of presentation.
The Company is banking with the below mentioned Banks for its Working Capital and Banking Requirements:
(i) ICICI Bank Ltd.
(ii) HDFC Bank Ltd.
(iii) State Bank of India
