2.1 Material Accounting policies
2.1.1 Property, plant and equipment (including capital work-in-progress)
Property, plant and equipment are stated at costs less accumulated depreciation and impairment loss, if any.
Depreciation is provided for property, plant and equipment on the straight-line method over the estimated useful life from the date the assets are ready for intended use. The estimated useful lives, residual values and depreciation method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimate accounted for on a prospective basis.
Depreciation on Property, Plant and Equipment has been provided on the straight-line method as per the useful life prescribed in Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013 other than leasehold improvements.
Estimated Useful Life of the various categories of Property, Plant & Equipment in the Company are as below:
1. Plant & Machinery (SLM % 6.33 / 15 years)
2. Vehicles (SLM% 11.88 / 8 years)
3. Furniture (SLM% 9.50 / 10 years)
4. Office Equipments (SLM% 19 / 5 years)
5. Computers (SLM% 31.67 / 3 years)
6. Leasehold Improvement (SLM % 10 / 10 Years) based on the technical assessment of the management considering the past trend of renewal of leases.
2.1.2 Intangible assets
Intangible assets purchased are measured at cost as of the date of acquisition, as applicable, less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment, if any.
Intangible assets comprise of aquired softwares and are amortised on a straight line basis over their estimated useful lives of 3 years. The estimated useful lives of the intangible assets and the amortisation period are reviewed at the end of each financial year and the amortisation period is revised to reflect the changed pattern, if any.
2.1.3 Employee benefits
Defined contribution plan
The Company makes defined contribution to Government Employee Provident Fund, Government Employee Pension Fund, Employee Deposit Linked Insurance and Employee State Insurance, which are recognised in the statement of Profit and loss on accrual basis. The Company recognises contribution payable to the provident fund scheme as an expenditure, when an employee renders the service entitling them to the contributions.
The Company has no obligation, other than the contribution payable to the provident fund.
Retirement benefit costs and termination benefits
Liabilities for gratuity funded in terms of a scheme administered by the LIC are determined using the projected unit credit method, with actuarial valuations being carried out at each balance sheet date. The liability or asset recognised in the balance sheet in respect of gratuity plan is the present value of the defined benefit obligation at the end of the reporting period less the fair value of plan assets.
The present value of the defined benefit obligation is determined by 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. The net interest cost is calculated by applying the discount rate to the net balance of the defined benefit obligation and the fair value of plan assets. This cost is included in employee
benefit expense in the statement of profit and loss.
Remeasurement, comprising actuarial gains and losses and the return on plan assets (excluding net interest), is reflected immediately in the balance sheet with a charge or credit recognised in other comprehensive income in the period in which they occur. They are included in retained earnings in the statement of changes in equity and in the balance sheet.
Changes in the present value of the defined benefit obligation resulting from plan amendments or curtailments are recognised immediately in profit or loss as past service cost.
2.1.4 Leases
The Company’s lease asset class primarily consist of leases of buildings which are typically made for fixed periods of one month to twelve years.
The Company as a lessee: At the commencement of the lease, the Company recognises a right of use asset (ROU) and a corresponding lease liability for all lease arrangements in which it is a lessee, except for short term leases and low value leases. Short-term leases are leases with a lease term of 12 months or less, without a purchase option. For those Short term and low value leases, the Company recognises the lease payments as an operating expense on a straight line basis over the term of the lease. Certain lease arrangements includes the options to extend or terminate the lease before the end of the lease term. ROU assets and lease liabilities includes these options when it is reasonably certain that they will be exercised.
The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease. If that rate cannot be readily determined, which is generally the case for leases in the Company, the lessee’s incremental borrowing rate is used, being the rate that the individual lessee would have to pay to borrow the funds necessary to obtain an asset of similar value to the right-of-use asset in a similar economic environment with similar terms, security and conditions.
Contracts might contain both lease and non¬ lease components. The Company allocates the consideration in the contract to the lease and non-lease components based on their relative stand-alone prices.
2.1.5 Financial Instruments
A) Initial Recognition
Financial assets and liabilities are recognised when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
All financial assets and liabilities are recognised at fair value on initial recognition, except for trade receivables which are initially measured at transaction price. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities (other than financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through statement of profit and loss) are added to or deducted from the fair value measured on initial recognition of financial asset or financial liability. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are recognised immediately in profit or loss.
B) Subsequent Measurement Financial assets
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash comprises cash on hand and demand deposits with banks. Cash equivalents are short-term balances (with an original maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition), highly liquid investments that are readily convertible into known amounts of cash and which are subject to insignificant risk of changes in value.
Financial assets at amortised cost
Financial assets subsequently measured at amortised cost if these financial assets are held within a business whose objective is to hold these 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.
Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI)
Financial assets are measured at fair value through other comprehensive income if these financial assets are held within a
business whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets and the contractual terms of the financial asset gives rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. The Company has not made an irrevocable election for its investments to present the subsequent changes in fair value in other comprehensive income based on its business model.
Financial assets at fair value through profit and loss (FVTPL)
Financial assets are measured at fair value through profit and loss unless it is measured at amortised cost or at fair value through other comprehensive income on initial recognition. The transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets and liabilities at fair value through profit and loss are immediately recognised in statement of profit and loss. The Company has elected to measure its investments at fair value through profit and loss.
Foreign exchange gains and losses
The fair value of foreign assets denominated in a foreign currency is determined in that foreign currency and translated at the spot rate at the end of each reporting period. For the foreign currency denominated financial assets measured at amortised cost and FVTPL, the exchange differences are recognised in statement of profit and loss.
Financial liabilities and Equity
Financial liabilities at amortized cost
Financial liabilities are subsequently carried at amortized cost using the effective interest method.For trade and other payables maturing within one year from the Balance Sheet date, the carrying amounts approximate fair value due to the short maturity of these instruments.
Borrowings & Security Deposits
Any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the repayment amount is recognised in profit or loss over the period of the liability and subsequently
measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Gains and losses are recognised in the profit or loss when the liabilities are derecognised as well as through the EIR amortisation process.
Equity instruments
An equity instrument is contract that evidences residual interest in the assets of the Company after deducting all of its liabilities. Equity instruments recognised by the Company are recognised at the proceeds received net off direct issue cost.
Foreign exchange gains and losses
For financial liabilities that are denominated in a foreign currency and are measured at amortized cost at the end of each reporting period, the foreign exchange gains and losses are determined based on the amortized cost of the instruments and are recognized in ‘Other income”.
The fair value of financial liabilities denominated in a foreign currency is determined in that foreign currency and translated at the spot rate at the end of the reporting period. For financial liabilities that are measured as at FVTPL, the foreign exchange component forms part of the fair value gains or losses and is recognized in the profit and loss.
C) Derecognition
Financial Asset
The Company derecognises a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire or it transfers the financial asset and the transfer qualifies for derecognition under Ind AS 109.
Financial Liability
A financial liability (or a part of a financial liability) is derecognised from the Company’s Balance Sheet when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged or cancelled or expires.
>.1.6 Trade receivables
Trade receivables are amounts due from customers for goods sold or services provided i n the ordinary course of business and reflect the Company’s unconditional right to consideration
(that is, payment is due only on the passage of time).
Trade receivables are recognised initially at the transaction price as they do not contain significant financing components. The Company holds the trade receivables with the objective of collecting the contractual cash flows and therefore measures them subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less loss allowance.
For trade receivables and contract assets, the Company applies the simplified approach required by Ind AS 109, which requires expected lifetime losses to be recognised from initial recognition of the receivables.
2.1.7 Inventories
Inventories of raw materials are valued at the lower of cost (on weighted average basis) and the net realisable value after providing for obsolescence and other losses, where considered necessary. Cost includes cost of purchase and other costs in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition.
Inventories of work-in-progress, finished good and stock-in-trade are valued at the lower of cost (on weighted average basis) and the net realisable value after providing for obsolescence and other losses, where considered necessary. Cost of work-in-progress and finished goods include cost of conversion.
Net realisable value represents the estimated selling price for inventories less all estimated costs of completion and costs necessary to make the sale.
2.1.8 Revenue
Revenue from contract with customer is recognised, when control of the goods or services are transferred to the customer, at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company is expected to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The specific recognition criteria described below must also be met before revenue is recognised. Revenue is recognised as follows:
Sale of goods
Revenue from contracts with customers
Revenue from contracts with customers is recognised upon transfer of control of promised
goods/ services to customers at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expect to be entitled for those goods/ services.
To recognise revenues, the Company applies the following five-step approach:
• Identify the contract with a customer;
• Identify the performance obligations in the contract;
• Determine the transaction price;
• Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and
• Recognise revenues when a performance obligation is satisfied.
Revenue from sale of goods
Revenue from sale of goods is recognised when goods are delivered and control has been transferred to the customer. Revenue towards satisfaction of a performance obligation is measured at the amount of transaction price (net of variable consideration and returns) 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 includes estimated customer returns.
Goods and Service Tax (GST) is not received by the Company in its own account. Rather, it is tax collected on value added to the commodity by the seller on behalf of the government. Accordingly, it is excluded from revenue.
Sales are recognised, net of returns and trade discounts, rebates, and Goods and Services Tax (GST).
Assets and liabilities arising from right to return
Under the Company’s standard contract terms, customers have a right of return goods as per Company’s policy.
Right to return assets
A right of return gives an entity a contractual right to recover the goods from a customer (right to return asset), if the customer exercises its option to return the goods and obtain a refund. The asset is measured at the carrying amount of
the inventory, less any expected costs to recover the goods, including any potential decreases in the value of the returned goods.
Refund liabilities
A refund liability is the obligation to refund part or all of the consideration received (or receivable) from the customer. The Company has therefore recognised refund liabilities in respect of customer’s right to return. The liability is measured at the amount the Company ultimately expects it will have to return to the customer. The Company updates its estimate of refund liabilities (and the corresponding change in the transaction price) at the end of each reporting period.
The Company has presented its right to return assets and refund liabilities under other current assets and other current liabilities, respectively.
Income from gift voucher
Customer discounts offered with purchase give rise to a separate obligation as it entitles the customers to redeem these discount vouchers against the future purchase transaction price. The transaction price is allocated to different performance obligations on a relative stand¬ alone selling price basis. The Company estimates the stand-alone selling price for a customer’s option to acquire additional goods considering the likelihood that the discount would be exercised.
For other customer discounts, sales are recognised when the discounts are redeemed, and the goods are sold to the customer.
2.1.9 Dividend and Interest Income
Interest income from a financial asset is recognised when it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Company and the amount of income can be measured reliably. Interest income is accrued on a time basis, by reference to the principal outstanding and at the effective interest rate applicable, which is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset to that asset’s net carrying amount on initial recognition. Dividend Income is accounted for when right to receive it is established.
2.2.1 Foreign currencies
Determination of functional currency:
Currency of the primary economic environment in which the Company operates ("the functional currency”) is Indian Rupee (INR) in which the Company primarily generates and expends cash. Accordingly, the Management has assessed its functional currency to be Indian Rupee (INR).
Transactions in foreign currency are recorded on the basis of the exchange rate prevailing as on the date of transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency are restated at rates prevailing at the year-end. The net loss or gain arising out of such restatement is dealt with in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Non-monetary assets and non-monetary liabilities denominated in a foreign currency and measured at fair value are translated at the exchange rate prevalent at the date when the fair value was determined. Non-monetary assets and non-monetary liabilities denominated in a foreign currency and measured at historical cost are translated at the exchange rate prevalent at the date of the transaction. The related revenue and expense are recognised using the same exchange rate.
2.2.2 Taxation
Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax. Current and deferred tax are recognised in the statement of profit and loss, except when they relate to items that are recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case, the current and deferred tax are also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity respectively.
Current tax
The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from ‘profit before tax’ as reported in the statement of profit and loss because of items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and items that are never taxable or deductible. The Company’s current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.
Deferred tax
Deferred tax is recognised on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are generally recognised for all deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary differences can be utilized. Such deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognised if the temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the taxable profit nor the accounting profit.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.
Deferred tax liabilities and assets are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in which the liability is settled or the asset realized, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.
The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Company expects, at the end of the reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.
2.2.3 Property, plant and equipment and Depreciation on Property, Plant and Equipment
The cost of property, plant and equipment includes purchase price net of any trade discounts and rebates, any import duties and other taxes (other than those subsequently recoverable from the tax authorities), any directly attributable expenditure on making the asset ready for its intended use, other incidental expenses and interest on borrowings attributable to acquisition of qualifying fixed assets up to the date the asset is ready for its intended use. All upgradation / enhancements are charged off as revenue expenditure unless they bring similar significant additional benefits.
Subsequent expenditure on property, plant and equipment after its purchase / completion is capitalized only if such expenditure results in an increase in the future economic benefits from such asset beyond its previously assessed standard of performance. The carrying amount of any component accounted for as a separate asset is derecognised when replaced.
The residual values are 5% of the original cost of the asset.
Assets individually costing less than or equal to ' 5,000 are fully depreciated in the year of acquisition.
Capital work in progress
Projects under which tangible property, plant and equipment not ready for their intended use are disclosed under capital work-in-progress. The capital work- in-progress are carried at cost, comprising direct cost, related incidental expenses and attributable interest.
2.2.4 Leases
The Company assesses whether a contract contains a lease, at inception of a contract. A contract is, or contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. To assess whether a contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset, the Company assesses whether: (i) the contract involves the use of an identified asset (ii) the Company has substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the asset through the period of the lease (iii) the Company has the right to direct the use of the asset.
The right-of-use 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 incentives. They are subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Right-of-use assets are depreciated from the commencement date on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease term and useful life of the underlying asset.
Right of use assets are evaluated for recoverability whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. For the purpose of impairment
testing, the recoverable amount (i.e. the higher of the fair value less cost to sell and the value-in¬ use) is determined on an individual asset basis unless the asset does not generate cash flows that are largely independent of those from other assets. In such cases, the recoverable amount is determined for the Cash Generating Unit (CGU) to which the asset belongs.
The lease liability is initially measured at amortised cost at the present value of the future lease payments. Lease liabilities are re¬ measured with a corresponding adjustment to the related right of use asset if the Company changes its assessment if whether it will exercise an extension or a termination option.
Variable lease payments that depend on sales are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which the condition that triggers those payments occurs.
Lease payments are allocated between principal and finance cost. The finance cost is charged to profit or loss over the lease period so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability for each period.
Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) vide its notification dated September 18, 2021, has provided practical expedient for the companies to recognise the short term waivers received on account of Covid 19 pandemic, upto September 2022, as ‘Other Income’ in the Statement of Profit and Loss if all the conditions are met. The Company had applied the expedient to all eligible rent concessions.
2.2.5 Intangible assets
An intangible asset is derecognised on disposal, or when no future economic benefits are expected from use or disposal. Gains or losses arising from derecognition 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 profit or loss when the asset is derecognised.
2.2.6 Impairment
Financial assets (other than fair value)
The Company assesses at each date of balance sheet whether a financial asset or a group of financial assets is impaired. Ind AS 109 requires expected credit losses to be measured through a
loss allowance. The Company recognises lifetime expected losses for all contract assets and / or all trade receivables that do not constitute a financing transaction.
The Company applies simplified approach of expected credit loss model for recognising Impairment loss on trade receivables, other contractual rights to receive cash or other financial asset. Expected credit losses are the weighted average of credit losses with the respective risks of default occurring as the weights. Expected credit loss is the difference between all contractual cash flows that are due to the Company in accordance with the contract and all the cash flows that the Company expects to receive (i.e. all cash shortfalls), discounted at the original effective interest rate.
For all other financial assets, expected credit losses are measured at an amount equal to the 12 month expected credit losses or at an amount equal to the life time expected credit losses if the credit risk on the financial asset has increased significantly since initial recognition.
Non-financial assets
Property, plant and equipment and intangible assets with finite life are evaluated for recoverability whenever there is any indication that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount (i.e. higher of the fair value less cost to sell and the value-in-use) is determined on an individual asset basis unless the asset does not generate cash flows that are largely independent of those from other assets. In such cases, the recoverable amount is determined for the cash generating unit (CGU) to which the asset belongs.
If the recoverable amount of an asset (or CGU) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset (or CGU) is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised in the statement of profit and loss.
