New standards, interpretations and amendments adopted by the Company effective from April 01, 2024:
The Company applied for the first time the below amendments, which are effective for annual periods beginning on or after April 01, 2024. The Company has not adopted any other standard, interpretation or amendment that has been issued but is not yet effective.
Amendments to IND AS 116: Lease Liability in a Sale and Leaseback
The MCA notified the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Second Amendment Rules, 2024, which amend Ind AS 116, Leases, with respect to Lease Liability in a Sale and Leaseback.
The amendment specifies the requirements that a seller-lessee uses in measuring the lease liability arising in a sale and leaseback transaction, to ensure the seller-lessee does not recognise any amount of the gain or loss that relates to the right of use it retains.
The amendment is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after April 01, 2024 and must be applied retrospectively to sale and leaseback transactions entered into after the date of initial application of Ind AS 116.
This amendment had no impact on these standalone financial statements.
3.1 A. Revenue:
The company derives revenue mainly from the supply of electronics and electro-mechanical systems and components including design, research & development of systems which are used in missile programmes (weapon systems electronics), underwater missile programmes (weapon systems electronics), avionics systems, ship borne systems, submarine systems, etc
Revenue is recognised when the transfer of control of promised goods or services has been transferred to customers, upon the satisfaction of performance obligations under the contract in an amount that reflects consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange of those goods and services.
To recognise revenues, the company apply the following five step approach Viz., (1) Identify the Contract with customer) (2) Identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) reallocate the transaction price to the performance obligation in the contact; and (5) recognise the revenue when a performance obligation is satisfied.
Revenue from the sale of goods is measured at the transaction price which is the consideration received or receivable, net of expected returns, taxes and applicable trade discounts and allowances.
In arriving at the transaction price, the Company considers the terms of the contract with the customers and its customary business practices. The transaction price is the amount of consideration the Company is entitled to receive in exchange for transferring promised goods or services, excluding amounts collected on behalf of third parties. The amount of consideration varies because of estimated returns which are considered to be key estimates.
For performance obligation satisfied overtime, revenue recognition is made using Input/output method based on performance completion till reporting date. The progress is measured in terms of a proportion of actual costs incurred to-date, to the total estimated cost attributable to the performance obligation as it best depicts the transfer of control that occurs as costs are incurred.
The company transfers control of good and service over time and therefore Satisfies a performance obligation and recognises revenue over a period of time if one of the following criteria is met:
(a) the consumer simultaneously consumes benefit of the company performance; or
(b) the consumer controls the asset as it is created/ enhanced by the company's performance, or
(c) there is no alternative of the asset, and the company has either explicit or implicit sight of payment considering legal precedents
Significant judgment and estimates are used in determining selling price of goods or service that do not have an observable selling price and maximise. The use of observable inputs while making an estimate the revenue recognised in case of performance obligation satisfied over a period of time, measuring progress forwards complete satisfaction of performance obligation, determining expected credit losses and determining method to be applied the arrive at variable consideration requiring adjustments to the transaction price.
When entity satisfy performance obligation at which customers obtain control of promised assets that are not limited to
a) entity has present right to payment
b) customer has legal title to asset
c) entity has transferred physical position of asset
d) the customer as the significant risk and rewards of asset and customer has accepted the asset.
In all other contracts, revenue is recognised at the point of time where performance obligation is satisfied at a point of time, the company recognise revenue when customer obtains control of promised goods and services in the contract.
Contract Balances Contract Asset:
In a contract, if the entity performs by transferring goods or services to a customer before the customer pays consideration or before payment is due, it shall
be presented as a contract asset, excluding any amounts presented as receivable. A contract asset is an entity's right to consideration in exchange for goods and services that the entity has transferred to the customer.
Contract Liability:
If a customer pays consideration, or an entity has a right to an amount of consideration that is unconditional (i.e. a receivable), before the entity transfers a good or service to the customer, it shall be presented as a contract liability when the payment is made or the payment is due (whichever is earlier). Contract liabilities are recognised as revenue when the Company performs the contract i.e., (transfers control of the related goods or services to the customer).
Trade Receivables:
A receivable is recognised if an amount of consideration that is unconditional (i.e., only the passage of time is required before payment of the consideration is due).
B. Other Income:
(i) Interest Income:
Interest income is earned on loans and other deposits provided and on fixed deposits maintained with banks that are accrued on a time basis by reference to the principal outstanding at stipulated interest rates and at effective interest rate classified as FVTPL or FVTOCI. Interest receivable on customer dues, if any, receivable is recognised as income in the statement of profit & loss on accrual basis provided that there is no uncertainty of realisation.
(ii) Govt Grants
(iii) Dividend income
(iv) Export Incentives
(v) Rental Income from Investment property:
Rental income is accounted as per rental agreements executed for relevant investment property
(vi) Other Income:
Other items of income are accounted as and when right to receive such income arises, and it is probable that the economic benefit flow to the company and the amount of income can be measured monetarily and reliably.
3.2 Leases:
As a lessee, the Company mainly has lease arrangement for buildings. The Company assesses whether a contract is or contains a lease at inception of the contract. The assessment involves the exercise of judgement about whether there is an identified asset, whether the Company has the right to direct the use of the asset and whether the Company obtains substantially all the economic benefits from use of that asset.
The Company recognise a right-of- use asset (ROU) and a corresponding lease liability at the lease commencement date. The lease liability is measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at the commencement date, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if that rate cannot be readily determined, the Company uses the incremental borrowing rate.
The ROU assets are initially recognised at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or prior to the commencement date of the lease plus any initial direct costs less any lease initiatives. ROU assets are amortised from the commencement date on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease term and useful life of the underlying assets. ROU assets are evaluated for recoverability whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable.
The lease liability is initially measured at amortised cost at the present value of future lease payments. The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or if nor readily determinable, using the incremental borrowing rate. Lease liabilities are remeasured with a corresponding adjustment to the related ROU asset if the Company changes its assessment of whether it will exercise an extension or a termination option.
3.3 Foreign currency:
Functional and presentation currency
These standalone financial statements are presented in Indian rupees, which is the functional currency of the Company. All financial information presented, except information related to share and per share data, in Indian rupees has been rounded to the nearest lakhs.
Foreign currency transactions
Transactions in foreign currencies are recorded at exchange rates prevailing on the date of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the reporting date are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rate at that date. Non-monetary items that are measured based on historical cost in a foreign currency are translated at the exchange rate at the date of the transaction.
Exchange differences arising on the settlement of monetary items or on translating monetary items at rates different from those at which they were translated on initial recognition during the period or in previous standalone financial statements are recognised in the standalone statement of Profit and Loss in the period in which they arise.
However, foreign currency differences arising from the translation of the following items are recognised in other comprehensive income ("OCI”):
• certain equity instruments where the Company had made an irrevocable election to present in OCI subsequent changes in the fair value in OCI and;
• qualifying cash flow hedges, to the extent that the hedges are effective.
When several exchange rates are available, the rate used is that at which the future cash flows represented by the transaction or balance could have been settled if those cash flows had occurred at the measurement date.
3.4 Income taxes
Income tax expense consists of current and deferred tax. Income tax expense is recognized in the statement of Profit and loss except to the extent that it relates to items recognized in the other comprehensive income
or directly in the equity, in which case the current and deferred taxes are also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity.
Current tax
Current tax is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years.
Deferred tax
Deferred tax is recognized using the balance sheet approach, providing for temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognised for deductible temporary differences arising between the tax base of the assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts, except when the deferred income tax arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability is a transaction that is not a business combination and affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss at the time of the transaction.
Deferred tax is recognised to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available, against which the deductible temporary differences can be utilised.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using substantively enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which the temporary differences are expected to be resolved or settled.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when they relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority and the relevant entity intends to settle its current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis.
Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realized.
3.5 Earnings per share:
The Company presents basic and diluted earnings per share ("EPS”) data for its ordinary shares. The basic earnings per share is computed by dividing the net profit attributable to equity shareholders for the period by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year.
Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing the net profit attributable to equity shareholders for the year relating to the dilutive potential equity shares, by the weighted average number of equity shares considered for deriving basic earnings per share and the weighted average number of equities shares which could have been issued on the conversion of all dilutive potential equity shares. Potential equity shares are deemed to be dilutive only if their conversion to equity shares would decrease the net profit per share.
3.6 Property, plant and equipment (PPE):
Recognition and measurement
Items of property, plant and equipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any.
The initial cost of PPE comprises its purchase price, including import duties and non-refundable purchase taxes, and any directly attributable costs of bringing an asset to working condition and location for its intended use, including relevant borrowing costs and any expected costs of decommissioning, less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. Free lands at is carried at historical costs less any accumulated impairment losses and is not depreciated. Expenditure incurred after the PPE have been put into operation, such as repairs and maintenance, are charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss in the period in which the costs are incurred.
If significant parts of an item of PPE have different useful lives, then they are accounted for as separate items (major components) of PPE.
Material items such as spare parts, stand-by equipment and service equipment are classified as PPE when they meet the definition of PPE as specified in Ind AS 16 - Property, Plant and Equipment.
Expenditure during construction period (including financing cost related to borrowed funds for construction or acquisition of qualifying PPE) is included under Capital Work-in-Progress, and the same is allocated to the respective PPE on the completion of their construction.
Advances given towards acquisition or construction of PPE outstanding at each reporting date are disclosed as Capital advances under "Other non¬ current Assets”.
Borrowing cost:
Borrowing costs are interest and other costs incurred in connection with the borrowing of funds. Borrowing costs directly attributable to acquisition, construction or production of an asset which necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use or sale are capitalised as part of the cost of that asset. Other borrowing costs are recognised as an expense in the period in which they are incurred
Depreciation
Depreciation is the systematic allocation of the depreciable amount of PPE over its useful life and is provided on a straight-line basis over the useful lives as prescribed in Schedule II to the Act or as per technical assessment.
Depreciable amount for PPE is the cost of PPE less its estimated residual value. The useful life of PPE is the period over which PPE is expected to be available for use by the Company, or the number of production or similar units expected to be obtained from the asset by the Company.
The Company has componentised its PPE and has separately assessed the life of major components. In case of certain classes of PPE, the Company uses different useful lives than those prescribed in Schedule II to the Act. The useful lives have been assessed based on technical advice, taking into account the nature of the PPE and the estimated usage of the asset on the basis of management's best estimation of obtaining economic benefits from those classes of assets.
Depreciation on additions is provided on a pro-rata basis from the month of installation or acquisition and in case of Projects from the date of commencement of commercial production. Depreciation on deductions/ disposals is provided on a pro-rata basis up to the date of deduction/disposal.
3.7 Research and development:
Expenditures on research activities undertaken with the prospect of gaining new scientific or technical knowledge and understanding are recognized in the statement of profit and loss as and when incurred.
Development activities involve a plan or design for the production of new or substantially improved products and processes. Development expenditures are capitalized only if development costs can be measured reliably; the product or process is technically and commercially feasible; future economic benefits are probable; and the Company intends to and has sufficient resources to complete development and to use or sell the asset.
The expenditures to be capitalized include the cost of materials and other costs directly attributable to preparing the asset for its intended use. Other development expenditures are recognized as expense in the statement of profit and loss as incurred.
3.8 Intangible assets:
Intangible assets including software licenses of enduring nature and contractual rights acquired separately are measured on initial recognition at cost.
Cost comprises the purchase price and any directly attributable cost of bringing the asset to its working condition for its intended use.
Following initial recognition, intangible assets are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses, if any.
Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized over the useful economic life and assessed for impairment whenever there is an indication that the intangible asset may be impaired.
The amortisation period and the amortisation method for an intangible asset with a finite useful life are reviewed at least at the end of each reporting period.
All intangible assets amortised over a period of five years from the date of recognition.
Changes in the expected useful life or the expected pattern of consumption of future economic benefits embodied in the asset are considered to modify the amortisation period or method, as appropriate, and are treated as changes in accounting estimates.
The amortisation expense on intangible assets with finite lives is recognised in the statement of profit and loss unless such expenditure forms part of carrying value of another asset.
Intangible assets are de-recognised either on their disposal or where no future economic benefits are expected from their use.
Gains or losses arising upon derecognition of an intangible asset are measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and are recognized in the statement of profit and loss when the asset is disposed.
3.9 Inventories:
Inventories are valued as follows:
• Raw materials, fuel, stores & spare parts and packing materials:
Valued at lower of cost and net realisable value (NRV). However, these items are considered to be realisable at cost, if the finished products, in which they will be used, are expected to be sold at or above cost. Cost is determined on weighted average basis.
• Work-in- progress (WIP), finished goods and stock-in-trade:
Valued at lower of cost and NRV. Cost of finished goods and WIP includes cost of raw materials, cost of conversion and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. Cost of inventories is computed on weighted average basis.
Inventories are recorded at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost is ascertained on a weighted average basis. Costs comprise direct materials and, where applicable, direct labour costs and those overheads that have been incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. Net realisable value is the price at which the inventories can be realised in the normal course of business after allowing for the cost of conversion from their existing state to a finished condition and for the cost of marketing, selling and distribution.
3.10 Impairment of non-financial assets
The carrying amounts of the Company's non-financial assets, other than inventories and deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, then the recoverable amount is estimated for the asset or the cash generating unit to which the asset belongs. For goodwill and intangible assets that have indefinite lives or that are not yet available for use, an impairment test is performed each year at March 31, or when circumstances indicate that carrying value may be impaired.
The recoverable amount of an asset or cash-generating unit (as defined below) is the greater of its value in use and its fair value less costs to sell. In assessing value in use, 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 the cash-generating unit. For the purpose of impairment testing, assets are grouped together into the smallest group of assets that generate cash inflows from continuing use that are largely independent of the cash inflows of other assets or groups of assets
(the "cash-generating unit”).An impairment loss is recognised in the standalone statement of Profit and Loss if estimated recoverable amount of an asset or its cash-generating unit is lower than its carrying amount. Impairment losses recognised in respect of cash-generating units are allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the units and then to reduce the carrying amount of the other assets in the unit on a pro-rata basis.
3.11 Employee benefits:
Short-term employee benefits
Short-term employee benefits are expensed as the related service is provided. A liability is recognized for the amount expected to be paid if the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation to pay this amount as a result of past service provided by the employee and the obligation can be estimated reliably.
(i) Defined contribution plans
A defined contribution plan is a post-employment benefit plan which an entity pays fixed contribution into a Separate entity and will have no legal or Constructive obligation to pay further amounts. The Company makes specified monthly contribution towards Government administered provident Fund scheme and other funds obligation for contribution plans recognized as an employee benefit expense in statement of profit and loss in the period during which the related service is rendered by employees.
(ii) Defined benefit plans
For defined benefits plans, the cost of providing benefits is actually valued used by the projected unit credit method at the end of each annual reporting period re- measurement comprising actuarial gains and losses the effect of changes to the asset ceiling (if applicable) and return on plan Assets (excluding net interest ) is reflected immediately in balance sheet with a change or credit recognized in the compressive income (or) in the period in which they occur. Remeasurements recognized in OCI is reflected immediately in retained earnings and will not be reclassified to statement of profit and loss. Past service cost is recognised in the statement of profit and loss in the period of plan amendment.
Net interests is calculated by applying the discount rate at the beginning of the period to the net defined benefit liability or asset.
A defined benefit plan is a post-employment benefits plan others than a defined contribution plan. The liability or asset recognized in the balance sheet is respect of defined benefit plan is the present value of defined benefits obligation at the end of reporting period less the fair value of plan asset.
The present value of the defined benefit obligation to determine by the discounting the estimated future cash outflows by reference to market yields at the end of the reporting period on government bonds that have terms approximating to the terms of the related obligation.
Remeasurement gain and losses arising from experience adjustment and changes in actuarial assumptions or recognized in the period in which they occur ,directly in the other comprehensive income they are included in retained earnings in the statement of changes in equity and in the balance sheet.
A liability for a termination benefit is recognized at the earlier of when the entity can no longer withdraw the offer of the termination benefits and when the entity recognizes any related restructuring costs.
Change in the present value of the defined benefit obligation resulting from plan amendment or curtailments are recognized immediately in profit or loss as past service costs.
(iii) compensated absence
The Company's current policies permit certain categories of its employees to accumulate and carry forward a portion of their unutilised compensated absences and utilise them in future periods or receive cash in lieu thereof in accordance with the terms of such policies. The Company measures the expected cost of accumulating compensated absences as the additional amount that the Company incurs as a result of the unused entitlement that has accumulated at the reporting date. Such measurement is based on actuarial valuation as
at the reporting date carried out by a qualified actuary. The resultant expenses are recognized in the standalone statement of Profit and Loss.
