Significant Accounting Policies
a) Basis of preparation of standalone financial statements:
The standalone financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with the Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in India (Indian GAAP) to comply with the Accounting Standards specified under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013, read with relevant rules there under and other accounting principles generally accepted in India. The standalone financial statements have been prepared on accrual basis under the historical cost convention. The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the standalone financial statements are consistent with those followed in the previous year
All assets and liabilities have been classified as current and non-current as per normal operating cycle of the Company and other criteria set out in the Schedule III of the Companies Act, 2013.
b) Revenue recognition:
i) Revenue is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the company and the revenue can be reliably measured.
ii) Revenue from maintenance contracts are recognised pro rata over the period of the contract as and when services are rendered.
iii) All other income and expenditure are recognised and accounted for on accrual basis.
c) Use of estimates:
The preparation of standalone financial statements requires estimates and assumptions to be made that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities on the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Difference between the actual results and estimates are recognised in the period in which the results are known/ materialised.
d) Cash and Cash Equivalents (for purposes of Cash Flow Statement)
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.
e) Cash Flow Statement
Cash flows are reported using the indirect method, whereby profit/loss before tax is adjusted for the effects of transactions of non-cash nature and any deferrals or accruals of past or future cash receipts or payments. The cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities of the Company are segregated based on the available information.
f) Inventories
Inventories are valued at lower of cost and net realizable value, including necessary provision for obsolescence. Cost is determined using the weighted average method.
Work in Progress are valued at cost including related overhead costs.
g) Tangible Fixed Assets:
i. An item is classified as Tangible fixed asset only if it satisfies the recognition criteria stated in AS 10 (i.e.) is probable that future economic benefits will flow to the company and the cost of such item could be measured. Stores and Spares fulfilling the above conditions are also classified as fixed assets. Fixed assets are initially recognized at its purchase price including all costs directly attributable to bring the asset in a ready to use condition. All subsequent cost incurred such as day to day running expenses, repair and maintenance expenses are treated as revenue expenses except when such expenditure satisfied the recognition criteria stated above. Cost Model is followed after initial recognition i.e. Fixed Assets are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation/amortization/impairment.
ii. Depreciation: Fixed assets are depreciated using the Written Down Value method. Useful lives of assets necessary for calculation of depreciation rates are taken as specified in Schedule II of Companies Act, 2013.
iii. Fixed assets retired from active use and held for sale are stated at the lower of their net book value and net realizable value and are disclosed separately.
iv. Capital Work-in-Progress: Projects under which tangible fixed assets are not yet ready for their intended use and other capital work-in-progress are carried at cost, comprising direct cost, related incidental expenses and attributable borrowing costs.
h) Intangible Assets/Intangible Asset under Development:
Intangible Assets are recorded at the consideration paid for acquisition of such assets and are carried at cost less accumulated amortization and impairment.
Software Products Developed/Purchased which are held for use in the production or supply of goods and services, for rental to others or for administrative purposes have been recognized as Intangible Assets.
Research Costs are expensed as incurred. Software product development cost are expensed as incurred unless technical and commercial feasibility of the product is demonstrated, future economic benefits are probable, the company has an intention and ability to complete and use or sell the software and the costs can be measured reliably. The costs which can be capitalized include the cost of materials, directs labour, and overhead cost that are directly or indirectly attributable to preparing the asset for intended use.
Self-Generated Intangible assets which are ready for sale are amortized on Straight Line method over their estimated useful life or 10 years, whichever is lower. The estimated useful life of the intangible assets and the amortization period are reviewed at the end of each financial year and the amortization period is revised to reflect the changed pattern, if any.
Subsequent Expenditure on Self-Generated Intangible Assets are capitalized only if it will enable the asset to generate future economic benefits in excess of its originally assessed standard of performance and the expenditure can be measured and attributed to the asset reliably. Amortization of subsequent expenditure is done in line with that of the original cost over the remaining life of the asset.
Intangible Asset under Development: - All Software Development Expenses eligible for capitalization are recognized as “Intangible Assets under Development” until the Software Product is ready for market.
i) Impairment of assets:
The carrying value of assets/cash generating units at each balance sheet date is reviewed for impairment if any indication of impairment exists. If the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the estimated recoverable amount, impairment is recognized for such excess amount. The impairment loss is recognized as an expense in the Statement of Profit and Loss, unless the asset is carried at revalued amount, in which case any impairment loss of the revalued asset is treated as a revaluation decrease to the extent a revaluation reserve is available for that asset.
The recoverable amount is the greater of the net selling price and their value in use. Value in use is arrived at by discounting the future cash flows to their present value based on an appropriate discount factor.
When there is indication that an impairment loss recognized for an asset (other than a revalued asset) in earlier accounting periods no longer exists or may have decreased, such reversal of impairment loss is recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss, to the extent the amount was previously charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss. In case of revalued assets such reversal is not recognized.
j) Investments:
Investments are classified into current and long-term investments. Current investments are stated at lower of cost and fair value. Long-term investments are stated at cost. A provision for diminution is made to recognise a decline, other than temporary, in the value of long-term investments.
k) Employee benefits:
Wages, salaries, paid annual leave, sick leave and bonuses are accrued in the year in which the services are rendered by the employees. The company does not permit accumulating of unused leaves. The company does not provide any long-term employee benefits except gratuity.
The company is not having any defined contribution plan and nor has made any provision for payment of Gratuity
l) Borrowing cost:
Borrowing cost attributable to the acquisition or construction of qualifying assets are capitalised as part of the cost of such assets. A qualifying asset is one that necessarily takes substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use. All other borrowing costs are charged to revenue.
m) Taxation:
The tax expense for the period comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognized in Statement of Profit and Loss, except to the extent that it relates to items recognized in the reserves directly. In such cases, the tax is also recognized in the reserves.
- Current tax
Current tax assets and liabilities are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities, based on tax rates and laws that are enacted or substantively enacted at the Balance sheet date.
- Deferred tax
Deferred tax is recognized 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 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 carrying amount of Deferred tax liabilities and assets are reviewed at the end of each reporting period.
