2. Summary of Material Accounting Policies2.1 Basis of Preparation of Financial Statement
The standalone financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Indian Accounting Standards ("Ind-AS”) notified under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013, read with the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015.
Historical Cost Conventions and Fair Value
These standalone financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for items required to be measured at fair value under Ind AS.
Historical cost is generally based on the fair value of the consideration given in exchange for goods and services. 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.
Reporting Presentation Currency
The standalone financial statements are presented in Indian Rupees, which is the Company’s functional and presentation currency. All amounts are presented in Rupees in millions, unless otherwise stated.
Current and non-current classification
The Company presents assets and liabilities in the balance sheet based on current and non-current classification.
An asset is classified as current when it is expected to be realised, sold or consumed in the Company’s normal operating cycle; held primarily for trading; expected to be realised within twelve months after the reporting period; or is cash or cash equivalent unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period. Current assets include the current portion of non- current financial assets All other assets are classified as non-current.
A liability is classified as current when it is expected to be settled in the Company’s normal operating cycle; held primarily for trading; due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period; or the Company does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least twelve months after the reporting period. Current liabilities include current portion of noncurrent financial liabilities. All other liabilities are classified as non-current. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as non-current.
Operating cycle
The Company has identified twelve months as its operating cycle.
2.2 Use of Estimates and judgments
The preparation of the standalone financial statement requires management to make estimates, judgements and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expenses and the disclosures. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis, and appropriate changes are made as management becomes aware of the circumstances surrounding the estimates. Changes in estimates are reflected in the financial statement in the period in which changes are made and if material, their effects are disclosed in the notes to the standalone Financial Statement. Areas involving significant judgement or estimation include useful lives and residual values of property, plant and equipment and leased assets; impairment and expected credit loss of financial assets; net realisable value of inventories; fair value measurement of financial instruments; recognition of deferred tax assets; provisions including warranty obligations; employee benefit obligations; and assessment of lease terms. The area involving measurement, estimates and judgements are as under:-
a) Fair value measurement
b) Deferred Tax
c) Rate of Depreciation
2.3 Revenue Recognition
Revenue from contracts with customers/ Income from services:
The Company recognises revenue when ‘control’ of the goods or services underlying the particular performance obligation is transferred to the customer at an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for those products or services.
Revenue from sale of products is recognised upon transfer of control of promised products
to customers, generally on delivery of the goods. Revenue is measured at the transaction price, which is the consideration, net of trade discounts and volume discounts/incentives, if any. Revenue also excludes taxes collected from customers.
Revenue from services is recognized, as per contractual terms with the customer, over period of time and in the accounting period in which the services are rendered.
Revenue towards satisfaction of a performance obligation is measured at the amount of transaction price (net of variable consideration) allocated to that performance obligation. The transaction price of goods sold, and services rendered is net of variable consideration on account of various discounts and schemes offered by the Company as part of the contract.
Export incentive has been recognized when the right to receive credit as per the terms of the scheme is established in respect of exports made and when there is reasonable certainty regarding the ultimate collection of the relevant export proceeds.
Lease income from operating leases is recognized in the statement of profit and loss on a straight¬ line basis over the lease term, unless another systematic basis better represents the pattern of benefit from the leased asset. It is more representative of the time pattern in which benefit derived from the use of the leased asset is diminished. Costs including depreciation, incurred in earning the lease income are recognized as an expense. Lease income (excluding receipts for services provided such as insurance and maintenance) is recognized in the statement of profit and loss on a straight¬ line basis over the lease term. The depreciation of leased assets should be on a basis consistent with the normal depreciation policy of the lessor for similar assets, and the depreciation charge should be calculated on the basis of leasing period is 4 years and considering residual value 20% Depreciation amortized on leased assets in the books of accounts is at the rate 20% over the 4
years as balance being the residual value of asset leased.
2.4 Other Income
Interest income is recognized using the effective interest rate.
Net gains or losses on financial instruments measured at fair value through profit or loss and foreign exchange differences not arising from revenue transactions are presented under other income/other gains and losses, as appropriate.
Corporate guarantee commission from subsidiaries is recognised over the period for which the guarantee is provided, based on the terms of the arrangement. Unless such activity forms part of ordinary operations, such commission is classified as other income.
2.5 Retirement and other employee benefits:
The Code on Social Security, 2020, and the Code on Wages, 2019, received Presidential assent and were subsequently notified in the Official Gazette. The Government of India has implemented these Codes effective November 21, 2025, with final rules being notified on April 1, 2026.
The Company has assessed the impact of these Codes on its financial statements, particularly concerning the revised definition of ‘Wages’ for the calculation of gratuity, provident fund, and leave encashment. Accordingly, the Company has re-evaluated its employee benefit obligations through an updated actuarial valuation as of March 31, 2026.
i. Short-term employee benefits
Short-term employee benefits are recognised as an expense at the undiscounted amount expected to be paid as the related services are rendered.
ii. Defined benefit plan
The Company’s gratuity plan is funded, the defined benefit obligation of which is
determined annually by a qualified actuary using the projected unit credit method as at each balance sheet date. The liability or asset recognised in the Balance Sheet is the present value of the defined benefit obligation at the end of the reporting period less the fair value of plan assets. Re-measurement of defined benefit obligation, which comprises of actuarial gains and losses are recognised in other comprehensive income in the period in which they occur. The Company determines the net interest expenses on the net defined benefit obligation, taking into account any changes in the net defined benefit liability during the period as a result of contribution and benefit payments. Net interest expenses related to defined benefit plan are recognized in employee benefit expenses in the statement of profit and loss.
The benefit vests upon completion of five years of continuous service and once vested it is payable to employees on retirement or on termination of employment. In case of death while in service, the gratuity is payable irrespective of vesting.
iii. Defined contribution plan
Defined contribution plans, including provident fund and employee state insurance, are recognised as expense when employees render the related services and the Company has no further obligation beyond the contributions payable.
iv. Long-term employee benefits
The Company’s obligation in respect of long term employee benefits other than postemployment benefits is the amount of future benefit that employees have earned in return for their service in the current and prior periods. The obligation is measured on the basis of an annual independent actuarial valuation using the projected unit credit method as at each balance sheet date.
The tax expense comprises of income tax and deferred tax. Tax is recognized in Statement of Profit and Loss, except to the extent that it relates to items recognized in the comprehensive income or in equity.
i. Current Income taxes: Current income tax for the current and prior periods are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities based on the taxable income for the period. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the current tax amounts are those that are enacted or substantively enacted as at the reporting date and applicable for the period. The Company offsets current tax assets and current tax liabilities, where it has a legally enforceable right to set off the recognized amounts and where it intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realize the asset and liability simultaneously.
ii. Deferred taxes: Deferred income tax is recognized using the balance sheet approach. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for deductible and taxable temporary differences arising between the tax base of assets and liabilities and their carrying amount in Financial Information, except when the deferred income tax arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and affects neither accounting nor taxable profits or loss at the time of the transaction.
Deferred income tax assets are recognized to the extent it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences and the carry forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilized.
Deferred income tax liabilities are recognized for all taxable temporary differences except in respect of taxable temporary differences that is expected to reverse within the tax holiday period.
The offsets deferred income tax assets and liabilities, where it has a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets against current tax liabilities, and they relate to taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either the same taxable entity, or on different taxable entities where there is an intention to settle the current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis or their tax assets and liabilities will be realized simultaneously.
2.7 Property, Plant and Equipment
Recognition and measurement: Property, plant and equipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, if any.
Expenditure during construction / erection period is included under capital work-in-progress and is allocated to the respective property, plant and equipment on completion of construction / erection.
2.8 Depreciation and Amortization:
Depreciation on all assets of the Indian Company has been provided on Written down value at the rates and in the manner specified in schedule II of the Companies Act, 2013. The useful lives of assets would be reviewed by the management at each financial year and revised, if appropriate. In case of a revision the unamortized depreciable amount is charged over the revised remaining useful life of the asset.
Foreign currency transactions are recorded at the exchange rate prevailing on the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the functional currency spot rate of exchange at the reporting date. Exchange differences arising on settlement or translation of monetary items are taken to the statement of profit and loss. Non-monetary items measured at historical cost are translated at the exchange rate on the date of the transaction. Non-monetary items measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value is determined.
The gain or loss arising on retranslation of non-monetary items is treated in line with the recognition of gain or loss on change in fair value of the item (i.e., translation differences on items whose fair value gain or loss is recognized in other comprehensive income or profit or loss is also recognized in other comprehensive income or profit or loss, respectively). The gain and loss on retranslation of Property, Plant & Equipment of Foreign Subsidiary has been routed through Property, Plant & Equipment.
2.10Borrowing costs
Borrowing costs consist of interest and other costs incurred in connection with the borrowing of funds. Borrowing costs also include exchange differences to the extent regarded as an adjustment to the borrowing costs.
Borrowing costs that are attributable to the acquisition or construction of qualifying assets (i.e., an asset that necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use) are capitalized as a part of the cost of such assets. All other borrowing costs are charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss.
2.11 Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Costs of inventories are
determined on a first-in-first-out basis. Net realisable value represents the estimated selling price for inventories less all estimated costs of completion and costs necessary to make the sale. The cost includes cost of purchases, which are net of discounts and rebates and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition.
