II. MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
a) Property, plant and equipment
An item of Property, Plant and Equipment that qualified as an asset is measured at initial recognition at Cost. Following initial recognition, items of property, plant and equipment (PPE) are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment, if any. Costs directly attributable to acquisition are capitalized until the property, plant and equipment are ready for use, as intended by the management.
The company identifies and determines cost of each part of PPE separately, if the part has a cost which is significant to the total cost of that items of PPE and has useful life that is materially different from that of the remaining items.
Advances paid for acquisition of Property, plant and equipment outstanding at each balance sheet date is classified as capital advances under other non-current assets. Cost of the assets not put to use before such date are disclosed under ‘Capital Work-in-progress’. Any subsequent expenditure relates to property, plant and equipment is capitalized only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with these will flow to the company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. Repairs and maintenance costs are recognized in the statement of profit and loss when incurred. Items of spare parts are recognized as Property, plant and equipment when they meet the definition of PPE. The cost and related depreciation are eliminated from the PPE upon sale or retirement of the asset and the resultant gain or losses are recognized in statement of profit and loss.
b) Intangible assets
Intangible assets are stated at cost of acquisition less accumulated amortization. Intangible assets are amortized over their respective individual estimated useful lives on a straight line basis from the date they are available for use.
c) Borrowing costs
Borrowing Costs, that are directly attributable to the acquisition or construction of assets, that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use, are capitalised as part of the cost of qualifying asset when it is possible that they will result in future economic benefits and the cost can be measured reliably.
d) Depreciation and amortization
Depreciation is recognized so as to write off the cost of assets less their residual values based on useful lives
as specified in Schedule II of the Companies Act, 2013 as follows:
i) Under straight line method in respect of plant and machinery of wind power division.
ii) Under written down value method on the remaining assets of the company.
iii) The intangible assets, being computer software is amortized over a period of 5 years on straight line method.
Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed periodically at each financial year end.
e) Inventories
i) Finished goods are valued at lower of cost or net realizable value.
ii) Cost of work-in-progress and finished goods includes appropriate portion of overheads etc.,
iii) Raw materials, stores and spares are valued at cost using weighted average method.
iv) Work-in-progress, raw materials, stores, spares, material in transit, are valued at cost except where the net realizable value of the finished goods they are used in is less than the cost of finished goods and in such an event, if the replacement cost of such materials etc., is less than their book values, they are valued at replacement cost.
v) By-products and scrap are valued at net realizable value.
f) Revenue recognition
Revenue is recognized to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the company
and the revenue can be reliably measured.
i) Revenue from sale of products is recognised when the entity satisfies a performance obligation by transferring the promised goods to customers and the goods are transferred when the customer obtains control over the goods and the company retains no effective control over the goods sold. Revenue is measured at the amount of transaction price (net of variable consideration) allocated to that performance obligation. The transaction price of goods sold is net of variable consideration on account of discounts offered as part of contract.
When there is any uncertainty as to the measurement or collectability of consideration, revenue recognition to the extent of amount of uncertainty is postponed until such uncertainty is resolved.
ii) Amounts collected on behalf of third parties such as GST are excluded from Revenue.
iii) Revenue realized on processing charges is recognized to the extent of completion of job as per the agreements/arrangements with the concerned parties.

g) Taxes on income
Income tax expense comprises the sum of tax currently payable and deferred tax. Income tax expense is recognized in net profit in the statement of profit and loss except to the extent that it relates to items recognized directly in equity, in which case it is recognized in other comprehensive income.
Current tax is determined at the amount expected to be paid to or recovered from the tax authorities, using the tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date.
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for all temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each year 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 assets to be recovered.
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured using tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or subsequently enacted by the balance sheet date and are expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect of changes in tax rates on deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized as income or expense in the year of enactment. A deferred income tax asset is recognized to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences and tax losses can be utilized.
h) Segment reporting
The operating segments of the entity are identified based on the revenues earned and expenses incurred whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the entity’s decision maker to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance for which discrete financial information is available.
The accounting policies adopted for segment reporting are in line with the accounting policies of the Company.
Inter segment revenue has been accounted for based on the market related prices.
Revenue and expenses have been identified to segments on the basis of their relationship to the operating activities of the segment.

The cost of providing benefits is determined using the projected unit credit method with actuarial valuations being carried out at the end of each reporting period. Remeasurement, comprising actuarial losses and gains, the effect of changes to the asset ceiling and actual return on plan assets, in excess of the yield computed by applying the discount rate used to measure the defined benefit obligation, is reflected in the balance sheet with a charge or credit recognized in other comprehensive income in the period in which they occur. Such remeasurement losses/gains are not reclassified to profit or loss subsequently.
The liability in respect of compensated absences due or expected to be availed within one year from the balance sheet date is recognized on the basis of undiscounted value of estimated amount required to be paid. Liability in respect of compensated absences becoming due or expected to be availed more than one year after the balance sheet date is estimated on the basis of actuarial valuation using projected unit credit method at the end of each year.
j) Research & development expenditure
Revenue expenditure is charged to Statement of Profit & Loss and Capital expenditure is added to the cost of Fixed Assets in the year in which it is incurred.
k) Foreign exchange transactions
The functional currency of the company is the Indian rupee and the financial statements are presented in Indian rupee.

ii) Foreign currency denominated non-monetary items are reported using the exchange rate at which they were initially recognized.
Transaction gains or losses realized upon settlement of foreign currency transactions are included in statement of profit and loss.
l) Impairment of assets
i) Financial assets (other than at fair value)
The company assesses at each balance sheet date 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 recognizes lifetime expected losses for all trade receivables that do not constitute a financing transaction. 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.
ii) 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 amount may not be recoverable. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount (i.e higher of the fair value less cost of sale and value in use) is determined on an individual asset basis unless the asset does not generates 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 recognized in the statement of profit and loss.
An impairment loss is reversed in the statement of profit and loss if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount and the carrying amount of the asset is increased to its revised recoverable amount subject to maximum of carrying amount.
