Material accounting policy information has been identified and disclosed based on the guidance provided under Ind AS 1. The material accounting policy information used in preparation of the standalone financial statements have been disclosed in the respective notes.
3.1 Key accounting estimates and judgements
The preparation of the Company's Standalone financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities, and the accompanying notes and disclosures, and the disclosure of contingent liabilities. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets or liabilities affected in future periods.
Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised prospectively. The changes in the estimates are reflected in the Standalone financial statements in the period in which changes are made and, if material, their effects are disclosed in the notes to the Standalone financial statements.
Critical accounting estimates and key sources of estimation uncertainty: Key assumptions
(i) Useful lives of Property, plant and equipment and Other intangible assets
The Company uses its technical expertise along with historical and industry trends for determining the economic life of an asset/component of an asset. The useful lives are reviewed by management periodically and revised, if appropriate. In case of a revision, the unamortised depreciable amount is charged over the remaining useful life of the assets (refer note 4A and 6).
(ii) Fair value measurement of financial instruments
When the fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities recorded in the balance sheet cannot be measured based on quoted prices in active markets, their fair value is measured using certain valuation techniques. The inputs to these models are taken from observable market data where possible, but where this is not feasible, a degree of judgement is required in establishing fair values. Judgements include considerations of inputs such as volatility risk and credit risk (refer note 40).
(iii) Defined benefit plan
The Company provides defined benefit employee retirement plans. Measurement of such plans require numerous assumptions and estimates that can have a significant impact on the recognized costs and obligation (refer note 24).
(iv) Revenue Recognition
Revenue is recognised upon transfer of control of promised products or services to customers at transaction price that reflects the consideration which the Company expects to receive in exchange for those products or services. The Company exercises judgment in determining whether the performance obligation is satisfied at a point in time or over a period of time. The Company considers the terms of the contract in determining the transaction price. For incentives/discounts offered to customers/dealers, the Company makes estimates related to customer performance and sales volume to determine the total amounts earned and to be recorded as deductions. No element of significant financing is deemed present as the sales are made with a credit term, which is consistent with market practice.
(v) Determination of lease liabilities
The Company evaluates if an arrangement qualifies to be a lease as per the requirements of Ind AS 116. Identification of a lease requires significant judgement. The Company uses significant judgement in assessing the lease term (including anticipated renewals) and the applicable discount rate. The Company determines the lease term as the non-cancellable period of a lease, together with both periods covered by an option to extend the lease if the Company is reasonably certain to exercise that option; and periods covered by an option to terminate the lease if the Company is reasonably certain not to exercise that option. In assessing whether the Company is reasonably certain to exercise an option to extend a lease, or not to exercise an option to terminate a lease, it considers all relevant facts and circumstances that create an economic incentive for the Company to exercise the option to extend the lease, or not to exercise the option to terminate the lease. The Company revises the lease term if there is a change in the non¬ cancellable period of a lease. The discount rate is generally based on the incremental borrowing rate specific to the lease being evaluated or for a portfolio of leases with similar characteristics [refer note 35(e)].
(vi) Determination of Right of use (ROU) assets
Certain key assumptions used in determination of ROU assets and liabilities, incremental borrowing rate and lease term. Right of use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease term and the estimated useful lives of the assets (refer note 5).
4A.Property, plant and equipment Accounting Policy
Property, plant and equipment held for use in the production or/and supply of goods or services, or for administrative purposes, are stated in the balance sheet at cost, less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses, if any.
The cost of an item of property, plant and equipment comprises its purchase price, including import duties and non¬ refundable purchase taxes, after deducting trade discounts and rebates, any directly attributable cost of bringing the item to its working condition for its intended use and estimated costs of dismantling and removing the item and restoring the site on which it is located.
Where an asset or part of an asset is replaced and it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will be available to the Company, the expenditure is capitalised and the carrying amount of the item replaced is derecognised. Similarly, overhaul costs associated with major maintenance which can be measured reliably are capitalised and depreciated over their useful lives where it is probable that future economic benefits will be available and any remaining carrying amounts of the cost of previous overhauls are derecognised. All other costs are charged to profit and loss during the reporting period in which they are incurred.
4A.Property, plant and equipment (Contd.)
In case of self-constructed assets, cost includes the costs of all materials used in construction, direct labour, allocation of overheads, directly attributable borrowing costs.
Depreciation is calculated on estimated useful lives using the written down value method for Property, plant and equipment situated at Liluah Unit - I (Howrah), Vapi and Vizag, and on property, plant and equipment situated at other locations are provided on straight line method over the useful lives of assets, at the rates and in the manner specified in Part C of Schedule II of the Act except in respect of certain categories of assets, where the useful life of the assets has been assessed based on a technical evaluation.
The estimated useful life, depreciation method and residual value are reviewed at the end of each annual reporting year, with the effect of any changes in estimate being accounted for on a prospective basis. Each component of an item of property, plant and equipment with a cost that is significant in relation to the cost of that item is depreciated separately if its useful life differs from the other components of the asset.
Freehold land is not depreciated. Leasehold land (includes development cost) is amortised on a straight-line basis over the period of respective lease, except land acquired on perpetual lease. Useful lives and residual values are reviewed at each financial year end and adjusted, as appropriate. Leasehold improvements are amortised/ depreciated over the remaining tenure of the contract.
Based on technical assessment done by experts in earlier years and management's estimate:
- Useful life of property, plant and equipment are different than those indicated in Schedule II to the Act, as stated above.
- Residual value on property, plant and equipment has been estimated at 5% of the cost, specified in Schedule II of the Act.
The management believes that these estimated useful lives and residual values are realistic and reflect fair approximation of the period over which the assets are likely to be used.
Depreciation on additions/ (disposals) is provided on a pro-rata basis i.e. from/ (upto) the date on which asset is ready for use/ (disposed off).
Property, plant and equipment 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. Impairment losses are reversed in the standalone statement of profit and loss only to the extent that the asset's carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined if no impairment loss had previously been recognised.
(b) As at 31 March 2026, Property, plant and equipment with net carrying amount of J408.66 lakhs (31 March 2025: H1,37,733.16 lakhs) are subject to first charge to secure borrowings (refer note 19).
(c) Gross carrying amount includes Research and development assets (Building, Plant and equipment, Furniture and fixtures and Office equipment) of J3,012.70 lakhs (31 March 2025: H2,830.70 lakhs) and net carrying amount of J1,711.64 lakhs (31 March 2025: H1,698.58 lakhs). Additions to the Research and development assets during the year 2025-2026 is J182.00 lakhs (2024-2025: H342.11 lakhs).
(d) The title deeds of leasehold Land are duly registered with appropriate authorities and title deeds of Freehold land amounting to J518.86 lakhs, which were transferred to the Company pursuant to the Scheme of Amalgamation, are in the process of transfer in the name of the Company.
(e) For contractual commitment with respect to Property, plant and equipment, refer note 35(d).
(f) The Company has not revalued its property, plant and equipment during the year ended 31 March 2026 and also during previous year ended 31 March 2025.
(g) The Company has performed an assessment of its property plant and equipment for possible triggering events or circumstances for an indication of impairment and has concluded that there were no triggering events or circumstances that would indicate the property plant and equipment are impaired.
(h) Addition to plant and machinary include trial and expenses amounting to J4,733.08 lakhs (31 March 2025: Nil).
4B. Capital work-in-progress Accounting Policy
Capital work-in-progress assets in the course of construction for production or/and supply of goods or services or administrative purposes, or for purposes not yet determined, which are not ready for intended use as on the date of Balance Sheet are disclosed as Capital work-in-progress and are carried at cost, less any recognised impairment loss, if any. Temporarily suspended projects do not include those projects where temporary suspension is a necessary part of the process of getting an asset ready for its intended use.
Directly attributable expenditure (including finance costs relating to borrowed funds/general borrowings for construction or acquisition of property, plant and equipment) incurred on project under implementation are treated as Pre-operative expenses pending allocation to the asset and are shown under CWIP.
The Company has performed an assessment of its Capital work in progress for possible triggering events or circumstances for an indication of impairment and has concluded that there were no triggering events or circumstances that would indicate the Capital work in progress are impaired.
Capital Work-in-Progress as at 31 March 2026 mainly comprises of construction of warehouse, office building, plant & equipment related to R&D and other projects. As at 31 March 2025 capital work-in-progress mainly comprises construction of warehouse building, plant & equipment related to speciality carbon black project, R&D and other projects.
5. Right of use assets Accounting Policy
The Company recognises right of use assets at the commencement date of the lease (i.e., the date the underlying asset is available for use). Right of use assets are measured at cost, less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, and adjusted for any remeasurement of lease liabilities. The cost of right of use assets includes the amount of lease liabilities recognised, initial direct costs incurred, and lease payments made at or before the commencement date. Right of use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease term and the estimated useful lives of the assets. If ownership of the leased asset transfers to the Company at the end of the lease term or the cost reflects the exercise of a purchase option, depreciation is calculated using the estimated useful life of the asset.
7. Financial Assets Accounting Policy
AH financial assets are recognised on trade date when the purchase of a financial asset is under a contract whose term requires delivery of the financial asset within the timeframe established by the market concerned. Financial assets are initially measured at fair value, plus transaction costs, except for those financial assets which are classified at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL) at inception. All recognised financial assets are subsequently measured in their entirety at either amortised cost or fair value.
The Company derecognises 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.
Classification of financial assets
Financial assets are classified as 'equity instrument' if it is a non-derivative and meets the definition of 'equity' for the issuer (under Ind AS 32 Financial Instruments: Presentation). All other non-derivative financial assets are 'debt instruments'.
Initial Recognition and Subsequent Recognition
(i) Amortised Cost
Financial assets are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, 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 assets give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
The Company may irrevocably elect at initial recognition to classify a debt instrument that meets the amortised cost criteria above as at FVTPL if that designation eliminates or significantly reduces an accounting mismatch had the financial asset been measured at amortised cost.
Financial assets classified at amortised cost comprise trade receivables, loans, government securities etc.
(ii) 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 on specified dates that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding and selling financial assets.
On initial recognition, the Company has an irrevocable option to present changes in the fair value of equity investments not held for trading in OCI. This option is made on an investment-by¬ investment basis.
Investments in equity instruments at FVTOCI are subsequently measured at fair value with gains and losses arising from changes in fair value recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in other Equity. Where the asset is disposed of, the cumulative gain or loss previously accumulated in the other Equity is directly reclassified to retained earnings.
(iii) Fair value through profit and loss (FVTPL)
Financial assets are measured at fair value through profit or loss unless they are 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 or loss are immediately recognised in standalone statement of profit and loss.
Disclosure related to Fair value measurement of financial instruments (refer note 40).
(iv) Investments in subsidiaries are carried at cost and tested for impairment in accordance with Ind AS 36 'Impairment of Assets'.
De-recognition of Financial Assets:
The Company derecognises financial assets on trade date only when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire, or when it transfers the financial assets and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to another entity or when it retains contractual rights to retain contractual cash flows from asset, but assumes a contractual obligation to pay the cash flows to one or more recipient.
Impairment of Financial Assets
At each reporting date, the Company assesses whether the credit risk on a financial instrument has increased significantly since initial recognition. When making the assessment, the Company compares the risk of a default occurring on the financial instrument as at the reporting date with the risk of a default occurring on the financial instrument as at the date of initial recognition and consider reasonable and supportable information, that is available without undue cost or effort, that is indicative of significant increases in credit risk since initial recognition. The amount of expected credit losses (or reversal) that is required to adjust the loss allowance at the reporting date is recognised as an impairment loss or gain in the standalone statement of profit and loss.
(a) The Company had made investments in equity shares and given loans and advances to its wholly owned subsidiary, AAT Global Limited ('AAT'), Hongkong. AAT, in turn, invested in equity shares and had given loans and advances to its subsidiary, Shandong Dawn Himadri Chemical Industry Limited ('SDHCIL'), China. There had been shortfall in the business performance of both AAT and SDHCIL as compared with budgets and further changes in the technology, market, economic environment have had adverse impact on the value of the investments and recoverability of loans and advances given. Due to the on-going size of operations and cost- benefit trend, both AAT and SDHCIL had been incurring losses and their net worth are fully eroded. Accordingly, the Company's investments in equity shares of AAT, amounting to H5,244.64 lakhs, had been fully impaired and loans and advances given to AAT, amounting to H7,554.01 lakhs, had been fully provided during the year ended 31 March 2020.
(b) Optionally Convertible Debentures (OCDs) issued by Birla Tyres Limited (Issuer) are Convertible into equal number of equity shares at the option of the Debenture Holder any time within 5 years from the date of allotment.

This voting right does not qualify HBTMPL as a subsidiary under Section 2(87) of the Companies Act, 2013. However based on contractual rights (including potential voting right), the Company has the power to make decisions concerning relevant activities and thus has control over HBTMPL and consequently, the management of the Company has decided to consider investment in HBTMPL as investment in subsidiary company.
(d) Redeemable Non-Convertible Debentures (NCDs) issued by Dalmia Bharat Refractories Limited (Issuer) are redeemable on expiry of 5 years from the date of Allotment unless mutually extended by the Issuer and Debenture

This voting right does not qualify ICPL as a subsidiary under Section 2(87) of the Companies Act, 2013. However based on contractual rights (including potential voting right combined with 40% voting right), the Company has the power to make decisions concerning relevant activities and thus has control over ICPL as per IND AS 110: "Consolidated Financial Statements." Consequently, the management of the Company has decided to consider the investment in ICPL as investment in subsidiary Company.
