Note 2: Significant accounting policies
The significant accounting policies applied by the Company in the preparation of its financial statements are listed below. Such accounting policies have been applied consistently to all the periods presented in these financial statements.
(i) Statement of compliance
The financial statements are prepared and presented in accordance with indian Accounting standards (ind As) notified under the Companies (indian Accounting standards) Rules 2015, as amended from time to time as notified under section 133 of the Companies Act 2013, the relevant provision of the Companies Act 2013 ("the Act”) and other accounting principles generally accepted in india.
(ii) Basis of preparation
The standalone financial statements have been prepared in confirmity with indian Accounting standards (ind As) prescribed under section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 read with the Companies (indian Accounting standards) Rules, 2015 as amended
The financial statements have been prepared on accrual basis under the historical cost basis except for certain financial instruments which are measured at fair value at the end of each reporting period.
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. in estimating the fair value of an asset or a liability the Company takes into account the characteristics of the asset or liability if market participants would take those characteristics into account when pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. Fair value for measurement and/or disclosure purposes in
these financial statements is determined on such a basis, except for leasing transactions that are within the scope of ind As 116, and measurements that have some similarities to fair value but are not fair value, such as net realizable value in ind As 2 or value in use in ind As 36.
in addition, for financial reporting purposes, fair value measurements are categorised into Level 1, 2, or 3 based on the degree to which the inputs to the fair value measurements are observable and the significance of the inputs to the fair value measurement in its entirety, which are described as follows:
Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date;
level 2 inputs are inputs, other than quoted prices included within Level 1, that are observable for the asset or liability either directly or indirectly; and
level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.
(iii) Use of estimates and critical accounting judgements
I n preparation of the financial statements, the Company makes judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and the associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and the underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised and future periods affected.
The following are the critical judgements, apart from those involving estimations that the directors have made in the process of applying the Company's accounting policies and that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the standalone financial statements.
Deferred Income tax assets and liabilities
significant management judgement is required to determine the amount of deferred tax assets that can be recognised, based upon the likely timing and the level of future taxable profits.
The amount of total deferred tax assets could change if estimates of projected future taxable income or if tax regulations udergo a change.
Income Taxes
Deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is regarded as probable that deductible temporary differences can be realized. The Company estimates deferred tax assets and liabilities based on current tax laws and rates and in certain cases, business plans, including management's expectations regarding the manner and timing of recovery of the related assets. Changes in these estimates may affect the amount of deferred tax liabilities or the valuation of deferred tax assets and thereby the tax charge in the standalone statement of Profit or Loss.
Provision for tax liabilities require judgements on the interpretation of tax legislation, developments in case law and the potential outcomes of tax audits and appeals which may be subject to significant uncertainty.
Therefore, the actual results may vary from expectations resulting in adjustments to provisions, the valuation of deferred tax assets, cash tax settlements and therefore the tax charge in the standalone statement of Profit or Loss.
Useful lives of Property, plant and equipment (‘PPE')
The Company reviews the estimated useful lives and residual value of PPE at the end of each reporting period. The factors such as changes in the expected level of usage, technological developments and product life-cycle, could significantly impact the economic useful lives and the residual values of these assets. Consequently, the future depreciation charge could be revised and thereby could have an impact on the profit of the future years.
Defined benefit plans
The cost of the defined benefit plans and the present value of the defined benefit obligation ('DBO') are based on actuarial valuation using the projected unit credit method. An actuarial valuation involves making various assumptions that may differ from actual developments in the future. These include the determination of the discount rate, future salary increases and mortality rates. Due to the complexities involved in the valuation and its long-term nature, a defined benefit obligation is highly sensitive to changes in these assumptions. All assumptions are reviewed at each reporting date.
Fair value measurement of derivative and other financial instruments
The fair value of financial instruments, that are not traded in an active market, is determined by using valuation
techniques. This involves significant judgements in selection of a method in making assumptions that are mainly based on market conditions existing at the Balance sheet date and in identifying the most appropriate estimate of fair value when a wide range of fair value measurements are possible.
(iv) Basis of Measurement
These standalone financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost except for the following assets and liabilities which have been measured at fair value: . The standalone financial statements are presented in indian Rupees ('), which is the Company's functional and presentation currency and all amounts are rounded to the nearest Lakh and two decimals thereof, except as stated otherwise.
(v) Property, Plant and Equipment (PPE) and Capital Works in Progess
Freehold land is carried at historical cost. All other items of property, plant and equipment are stated at historical cost less depreciation and impairment if any. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the items.
Cost is inclusive of inward freight, duties and taxes and incidental expenses related to acquisition or construction. All upgradation / enhancements are charged off as revenue expenditure unless they bring similar significant additional benefits. An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of asset. Any gain or loss arising on the disposal or retirement of an item of property, plant and equipment is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and is recognised in the statement of profit and loss
subsequent costs are included in the asset's carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of any component accounted for as a separate asset is derecognised when replaced. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to statement of Profit or Loss during the reporting period in which they are incurred.
Projects under which tangible property, plant and equipment are not yet ready for their intended use are carried at cost,
comprising direct cost, related incidental expenses and attributable interest.
Machinery spares which can be used only in connection with an item of fixed asset and whose use is expected to be irregular are capitalised and depreciated over the useful life of 3 years.
Property, plant and equipment acquired in business combination are recognised at fair value at the acquisition date. subsequent costs are included in the assets carrying value or recognised as a separate assets as appropriate only when it is possible that future economic benefit associated with the item will flow to the Company.
Projects under which tangible fixed assets are not yet ready for their intended use are carried at cost, comprising direct cost, related incidental expenses and attributable interest.
(vi) Depreciation and Amortisation
(a) Depreciation on the property plant and equipment is provided over the useful life of assets which is coincide with the life specified in schedule ii to the Companies Act, 2013 except in the case of the certain categories of assets, in whose case the life of the assets has been assessed as under based on techinical advice, taking into account the nature of the asset, the estimated usage of the asset, the operating conditions of the asset, past history of replacement, anticipated technological changes,manufacturers warranties and maintenance support etc. The range of useful lives of the Property,Plant and Equipment are as follows:
The depreciation is provided based on the useful life of assets specified in schedule ii to the Companies Act, 2013 on straight line method. The useful lives of assets as mentioned above is on their single shift basis, if an asset is used for any time during the year for double shift, the depreciation will increase by 50% for that period and in case of triple shift the depreciation shall be calculated on the basis of 100%for that period.
(b) Property, plant and equipment (PPE) which are added/ disposed- of during the year, depreciation is provided on pro-rata basis from (up- to) the date on which the PPE is available for use (disposed-of).
(c) Assets residual values and useful lives are reviewed at each financial year end considering the physical condition of the assets and benchmarking analysis or whenever there are indicators for review of residual value and useful life adjusted prospectively, if appropriate. Freehold land is not depreciated. Lease hold land is amortised over the period of lease.
(d) Free-hold land are not subject to amortisation.
(vii) Intangible Assets
intangible assets acquired separately are measured on initial recognition at historical cost. intangibles assets have a finite life and are subsequently carried at cost less any accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses if any.
i ntangible assets with finite lives are amortized over the useful life and assessed for impairment whenever there is an indication that the intangible asset may be impaired. The amortization period and the amortization method for an intangible asset with a finite useful life are reviewed at least at the end of each reporting period.
Changes in the expected useful life or the expected pattern of consumption of future economic benefits embodied in the asset are considered to modify the amortization period or method, as appropriate, and are treated as changes in accounting estimates. The amortization expense on intangible assets with finite lives is recognized in the statement of profit and loss unless such expenditure forms part of carrying value of another asset.
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 recognized in the statement of profit or loss when the asset is derecognized.
(viii) Investment Property
Property that is held for long-term rental yields or for capital appreciation or both, and that is not occupied by the Company is classified as investment property
Recognition: investment property is recognised as an asset when and only when, (a) it is probable that the future economic benefits that are associated with the investment property will flow to the company (b) the cost of the investment property can be measured reliably.
Initial Measurement:
(i) investment property is initially recognised at cost comprising the purchase price and directly attributable transaction costs (e.g. legal services, transfer services)
(ii) The cost of a purchased investment property comprises its purchase price and any directly attributable expenditure. Directly attributable expenditure includes, for example, professional fees for legal services, property transfer taxes and other transaction costs.
(iii) The cost of an investment property is not increased by:
(a) start-up costs (unless they are necessary to bring the property to the condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by the management
(b) operating losses incurred before the investment property achieves the planned level of occupancy, or
(c) abnormal amounts of wasted material, labour or other resources incurred in constructing or developing the property.
(iv) if payment for an investment property is deferred, its cost is the cash price equivalent. The difference between this amount and the total payments is recognised as interest expense over the period of credit.
(v) The fair value of an asset for which comparable market transactions do not exist is reliably measurable if (a) the variability in the range of reasonable fair value estimates is not significant for that asset or (b) the probabilities of the various estimates within the range can be reasonably assessed and used in estimating fair value. if the entity is able to determine reliably the fair value of either the asset received or the asset
given up, then the fair value of the asset given up is used to measure cost unless the fair value of the asset received is more clearly evident.
Subsequent Measurement:
(a) subsequently investment property is carried at cost model, which is cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses.
(b) subsequent expenditures on investment property are capitalised when it is probable that economic benefits in excess of the original standards flow to the company, otherwise it is charged to P&L.
Fair Value Measurement:
The fair value of an investment property is being measured on a continuing basis. However ,in exceptional cases, there is clear evidence when the company first acquires an investment property (or when an existing property first becomes investment property after a change in use) that the fair value of the investment property is not reliably measureable on a continuing basis. This arises when ,and only when, the market for comparable properties is inactive and alternative reliable measurements of fair value are not available.
Disposasls:
investment property is derecognised (eliminated from Balance sheet) on disposal or when the investment property is permanently withdrawn from use and no future economic benefits are expected from its disposal. Gains or losses arising from the retirement or disposal of investment property is determined as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and is recognised in profit or loss in the period of the retirement or disposal.
depreciation or Amortisation:
i Depreciation on the investment property is provided over the useful life of assets which is coincide with the life specified in schedule ii to the Companies Act, 2013. The range of useful lives of the investment property are as follows:
The depreciation is provided based on the useful life of assets specified in Schedule ii to the Companies Act, 2013 on straight line method.
ii I nvestment property which are added/ disposed- of during the year, depreciation is provided on pro-rata basis from (up- to) the date on which the investment property is available for use (disposed-of).
iii Assets residual values and useful lives are reviewed at each financial year end considering the physical condition of the assets and benchmarking analysis or whenever there are indicators for review of residual value and useful life adjusted prospectively, if appropriate. Freehold land is not depreciated. Lease hold land is amortised over the period of lease.
iv Free-hold land are not subject to amortisation.
(ix) Goodwill
The excess of cost to the company of its investments in the subsidiary companies over its share of equity of the subsidiary companies , at the dates on which the investments in the subsidiary companies were made, is recognised as 'Goodwill' being an asset in the financial statements and is tested for impairment on annual basis as required by ind AS 36 impairment of assets. On the other hand, where the share of equity in the subsidiary companies as on the date of investment is in excess of cost of investments of the company, it is recognised as 'Capital Reserve' and shown under the head 'Reserves & Surplus', in the financial statements. The 'Goodwill' is determined separately for each subsidiary Company and such amounts are not set off between different entities.
(x) Cash and cash equivalents
For the purpose of presentation in the Statement of Cash Flows, cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, other short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities in the Balance Sheet.
Cash flows are reported using the indirect method, whereby net profit before tax is adjusted for the effects of transactions of a non-cash nature, 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.
Short term borrowings, repayments and advances having maturity of three months or less, are shown as net in cash flow statement.
(xi) Inventories Raw material, work in progress, stores, traded and finished goods
inventories are valued at the lower of cost (First in First Out - FiFO basis) and the net realisable value after providing for obsolescence and other losses, where considered necessary. Cost includes cost of purchase, all charges in bringing the goods to the point of sale, including indirect levies, transit insurance and receiving charges. Finished goods include appropriate proportion of overheads and, where applicable.
Cost of inventories also include all other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition.
Rejection and scrap
Rejection and scrap are valued at net realisable value.
Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.
(xii) Employee benefits
Employee benefits include provident fund, employee state insurance scheme, gratuity, compensated absences and performance incentives.
(i) Short-term obligations
Liabilities for wages and salaries, including non¬ monetary benefits that are expected to be settled wholly within 12 months after the end of the period in which the employees render the related service are recognised in respect of employees' services up to the end of the reporting period and are measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled. The liabilities are presented as current employee benefit obligations in the Balance Sheet.
The cost of short-term compensated absences is accounted as under:
(a) in case of accumulated compensated absences, when employees render the services that increase their entitlement of future compensated absences; and
(b) in case of non-accumulating compensated absences, when the absences occur.
(ii) Other long-term employee benefit obligations
Provisions for other long term employee benefits- compensated absences, a defined benefit scheme, is made on the basis of actuarial valuation at the end of each financial year and are charged to the statement of profit and loss. All actuarial gains or losses are recognised immediately in the statement of profit and loss.
The obligations are presented as current liabilities in the balance sheet if the entity does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least twelve months after the reporting period, regardless of when the actual settlement is expected to occur.
(iii) Post-employment obligations
Defined contribution plans: The Company's contribution to provident fund are considered as defined contribution plans and are charged as an expense based on the amount of contribution required to be made and when services are rendered by the employees.
Defined benefit plans: The Company provides for gratuity, a defined benefit retirement plan ('the Gratuity Plan') covering eligible employees. The Gratuity Plan provides a lumpsum payment to vested employees at retirement, death, or termination of employment, of an amount based on the respective employee's salary and the tenure of employment with the Company. Liabilities with regard to the Gratuity Plan are determined by actuarial valuation, performed by an independent actuary, at each balance sheet date using the projected unit credit method.
The company recognizes the net obligation of a defined benefit plan in its balance sheet as an asset or liability. Gains and losses through re-measurements of the net defined benefit liability/ (asset) are recognised in other comprehensive income. The actual return of the portfolio of plan assets, in excess of the yields computed by applying the discount rate used to measure the defined benefit obligations is recognised in Other Comprehensive income. The effect of any plan amendments are recognised in net profits in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
(xiii) Foreign currency Transaction
(i) Functional and presentation currency:
The financial statements are presented in indian rupee (iNR), which is functional and presentation currency.
(ii) transactions and balances :
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at year end exchange rates are generally recognised in statement of Profit and Loss.
Foreign exchange differences regarded as an adjustment to borrowing costs are presented in the statement of Profit and Loss, within finance costs. All other foreign exchange gains and losses are presented in the statement of Profit and Loss on a net basis within other gains/(losses).
(xiv) Leases As a lessee
The Company's lease asset classes primarily consist of leases for land and buildings. 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 and
(iii) the Company has the right to direct the use of the asset.
At the date of commencement of the lease, the Company recognizes a right-of-use asset ("ROU") and a corresponding lease liability for all lease arrangements in which it is a lessee, except for leases with a term of twelve months or less (short-term leases) and low value leases. For these short-term and low value leases, the Company recognizes 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 right-ofuse assets are initially recognized 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.
The lease liability is initially measured at amortized cost at the present value of the future lease payments. The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if not readily determinable, using the incremental borrowing rates in the country of domicile of these leases. Lease liabilities are remeasured 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. Lease liability and ROu asset have been separately presented in the Balance sheet and lease payments have been classified as financing cash flows.
(xv) Financial instruments-Initial recognition,subsequent measurement
A financial instrument is any contact that gives rise to a financial asset of one entity and a financial liability or equity instrument of another entity
A. Investments and other financial assets
(i) Classification
The Company classifies its financial assets in the following measurement categories:
- those to be measured subsequently at fair value (either through other comprehensive income, or through profit or loss), and
- those measured at amortised cost.
The classification depends on the entity's business model for managing the financial assets and the contractual terms of the cash flows.
For assets measured at fair value, gains and losses will either be recorded in the statement of profit or loss or other comprehensive income.
The classification criteria of the Company for debt and equity instruments is provided as under:
(a) Debt instruments
Depending upon the business model of the Company debt instruments can be classified under following categories:
- Debt instruments measured at amortised cost
- Debt instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income
- Debt instruments measured at fair value through profit or loss
The Company reclassifies debt instruments when and only when its business model for managing those assets changes.
(b) Equity instruments
The equity instruments can be classified as:
- Equity instruments measured at fair value
through profit or loss ('FvTPL')
- equity instruments measured at fair value
through other comprehensive income ('FvTOCi')
equity instruments and derivatives are normally measured at FvTPL. However, on initial recognition, an entity may make an irrevocable election (on an instrument-by-instrument basis) to present in OCi the subsequent changes in the fair value of an investment in an equity instrument within the scope of ind As -109.
(ii) Measurement
At initial recognition, the Company measures a financial asset at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial asset not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset. Transaction costs of financial assets carried at fair value through profit or loss are expensed in the statement of profit or loss. However, trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component are measured at transaction price.
Debt instruments
subsequent measurement of debt instruments depends on the Company's business model for managing the asset and the cash flow characteristics of the asset. There are three measurement categories into which the Company classifies its debt instruments:
Amortised cost: Assets that are held for collection of contractual cash flows where those cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest are measured at amortised cost. A gain or loss on a debt investment that is subsequently measured at amortised cost and is not part of a hedging relationship is recognised in the statement of profit or loss when the asset is derecognised or impaired. Interest income from these financial assets is included in finance income using the effective interest rate method.
Fair value through other comprehensive income: Assets that are held for collection of contractual cash flows and for selling the financial assets, where the assets' cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest, are measured at fair value through other comprehensive income. Movements in the carrying amount are taken through OCi, except for the recognition of impairment gains or losses, interest revenue and foreign exchange gains and losses which are recognised in profit and loss. when the financial asset is derecognised, the cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in OCI is reclassified from equity to profit or loss and recognised in other gains/ (losses). interest income from these financial assets is included in other income using the effective interest rate method.
Fair value through profit or loss: Assets that do not meet the criteria for amortised cost or FvOCi are measured at fair value through profit or loss. A gain or loss on a debt investment that is subsequently measured at fair value through profit or loss and is not part of a hedging relationship is recognised in the statement of profit or loss and presented net in the statement of profit and loss within other gains/ (losses) in the period in which it arises. interest income from these financial assets is included in other income.
Investment in equity shares
The Company subsequently measures all equity investments at fair value (Other than the investment in wholly owned subsidiaries which are measured at cost). where the management has elected to present fair value gains and losses on equity investments in other comprehensive income, there is no subsequent reclassification of fair value gains and losses to profit or loss. Dividends from such investments are recognised in the statement of profit or loss as other
income when the Company's right to receive payments is established.
Changes in the fair value of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are recognised in other gain/ (losses) in the statement of profit and loss. impairment losses (and reversal of impairment losses) on equity investments measured at FvOCi are not reported separately from other changes in fair value.
(iii) Derecognition of financial assets
A financial asset is derecognised only when:
- the Company has transferred the rights to receive cash flows from the Financial asset or
- retains the contractual rights to receive the cash flows of the financial asset, but assumes a contractual obligation to pay the cash flows to one or more recipients.
where the Company has transferred an asset, the Company evaluates whether it has transferred substantially all risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset. in such cases, the financial asset is derecognised. where the Company has not transferred substantially all risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset, the financial asset is not derecognised.
i. Financial liabilities
(i) Classification
The Company classifies its financial liabilities in the following measurement categories:
- Financial liabilities measured at fair value through profit or loss
- Financial liabilities measured at amortized cost
(ii) Measurement
The measurement of financial liabilities depends on their classification, as described below:
Financial liabilities measured at fair value through profit or loss:
Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss include financial liabilities held for trading. At initial recognition, such financial liabilities are recognised at fair value.
Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are, at each reporting date, measured at fair value with
all the changes recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Financial liabilities measured at Amortized Cost :
At initial recognition, all financial liabilities other than fair valued through profit and loss are recognised initially at fair value less transaction costs that are attributable to the issue of financial liability. Transaction costs of financial liability carried at fair value through profit or loss is expensed in the statement of profit or loss.
After initial recognition, financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption amount is recognised in the statement of profit or loss over the period of the financial liabilities using the effective interest method. Fees paid on the establishment of loan facilities are recognised as transaction costs of the loan to the extent that it is probable that some or all of the facility will be drawn down.
(iii) De-recognition of financial liability
A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires. The difference between the carrying amount of a financial liability that has been extinguished or transferred to another party and the consideration paid, including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed, is recognised in the statement of profit or loss as other income or finance costs.
(xvi) derivative financial instruments
The Company uses derivative financial instruments, such as forward contracts to hedge its foreign currency exposure. The recognizing of the resulting gain or loss depends on whether the derivative is designated as a hedging instrument, and if so, on the nature of the item being hedged. Any gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value of derivatives are taken directly to profit or loss.
(xvii) Borrowings
Borrowings are initially recognised at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised cost. Any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption amount is recognised in statement of Profit and Loss over the period of the borrowings. Fees paid on the establishment
of loan facilities are recognised as transaction costs of the loan to the extent that it is probable that some or all of the facility will be drawn down. in this case, the fee is deferred until the draw down occurs. To the extent there is no evidence that it is probable that some or all of the facility will be drawn down, the fee is capitalised as a prepayment for liquidity services and amortised over the period of the facility to which it relate
Borrowings are removed from the Balance sheet when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged, cancelled or expired. The difference between the carrying amount of a financial liability that has been extinguished or transferred to another party and the consideration paid, including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed, is recognised in statement of Profit and Loss as other gains/ (losses).
Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the Company has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period. where there is a breach of a material provision of a long-term loan arrangement on or before the end of the reporting period with the effect that the liability becomes payable on demand on the reporting date, the entity does not classify the liability as current, if the lender agreed, after the reporting period and before the approval of the financial statements for issue, not to demand payment as a consequence of the breach.
(xviii) Borrowing costs
a) Borrowing costs that are attributable to the acquisition, construction, or production of a qualifying asset are capitalised as a part of the cost of such asset till such time the asset is ready for its intended use or sale. A qualifying asset is an asset that necessarily requires a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use or sale.
b) All other borrowing costs are recognised as expense in the period in which they are incurred.
(xix) Income tax
The income tax expense or credit for the period is the tax payable on the current period's taxable income based on the applicable income tax rate for each year adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to temporary differences and to unused tax losses.
The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the end of the reporting period. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in tax returns with respect to situations in
which applicable tax regulation is subject to interpretation. it establishes provisions where appropriate on the basis of amounts expected to be paid to the tax authorities.
Deferred tax is recognised on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying values in the financial statements. Deferred tax is determined using tax rates (and laws) that have been enacted or substantially enacted by the end of the reporting period and are expected to apply when the related deferred income tax asset is realised or the deferred income tax liability is settled.
Deferred tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses only if it is probable that future taxable amounts will be available to utilise those temporary differences and losses.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets and liabilities and when the deferred tax balances relate to the same taxation authority. Current tax assets and tax liabilities are offset where the entity has a legally enforceable right to offset and intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
The carrying value of deferred tax assets is reviwed 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 thte asset to be recovered.
Current and deferred tax is recognised in statement of Profit and Loss, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in Other Comprehensive income. in this case, the tax is also recognised in Other Comprehensive income.
(xx) Revenue recognition
Revenue towards satisfaction of a performance obligation is measured at the amount of transaction price (net of variable consideration) allocated to that performance obligation.
(a) Sale of goods
The Company derives revenue from sale of Goods and revenue is recognized upon transfer of control of promised goods to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for those goods. To recognize revenues, the Company applies the following five step approach: ( 1) identify the contract with a customer, (2) identify the performance obligations
in the contract, (3) determine the transaction price, (q) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and (5) recognize revenues when a performance obligation is satisfied. The Company recognises revenue at point in time ,
Any change in scope or price is considered as a contract modification. The Company accounts for modifications to existing contracts by assessing whether the services added are distinct and whether the pricing is at the standalone selling price.
The Company accounts for variable considerations like, volume discounts, rebates and pricing incentives to customers as reduction of revenue on a systematic and rational basis over the period of the contract. The Company estimates an amount of such variable consideration using expected value method or the single most likely amount in a range of possible consideration depending on which method better predicts the amount of consideration to which we may be entitled.
Revenues are shown net of allowances/ returns, goods and services tax and applicable discounts and allowances.
(b) Interest income
interest income is accrued on a time proportion basis, by reference to the principle outstanding and the effective interest rate applicable.
(c) Rental Income
Rental income is recognized on a time-apportioned basis in accordance with the underlying substance of the relevant contract.
(d) Dividend Income
Dividend income from investments is recognised when the shareholder's rights to receive payment have been established.
(e) Commision Income
Commission income is recognised when the services are rendered.
xxi) Government grants / Assistance
Government grants are recognised where there is reasonable assurance that the grant will be received and all attached conditions will be complied with.Government grants related
to assets are presented in the balance sheet as deferred income and is recognised in the Statement of profit or loss on a systematic basis over the expected useful life of the related asset. The grant which is received to compensate the import cost of assets subject to an export obligation as prescribed in the export promotion capital goods scheme is recognised as income in the statement of profit and loss linked to fulfilment of associated export obligations. The benefit of a government loan at a below-market rate of interest is treated as government grant, measured as the difference between proceeds received and the fair value of the loan based on prevailing market interest rates and are presented in the balance sheet as deferred income.
(xxii) Dividend Distribution
Annual dividend distribution to the shareholders is recognised as a liability in the period in which the dividends are approved by the shareholders. Any interim dividend paid is recognised on approval by Board of Directors. Dividend payable and corresponding tax on dividend distribution is recognised directly in equity.
(xxiii) Fair Value measurement
The Company measures financial instruments at fair value at each balance sheet date. 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. The fair value measurement is based on the presumption that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability takes place either: in the principal market for the asset or liability, or in the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the asset or liability The principal or the most advantageous market must be accessible by the Company. The fair value of an asset ora liability is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, assuming that market participants act in their economic best interest. A fair value measurement of a non¬ financial asset takes into account a market participant's ability to generate economic benefits by using the asset in its highest and best use or by selling it to another market participant that would use the asset in its highest and best use. The Company uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available to measure fair value, maximising the use of relevant observable inputs and minimising the use of unobservable inputs. All assets and liabilities for which fair
value is measured or disclosed in the financial statements are categorised within the fair value hierarchy, described as follows, based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole:
Level 1: Quoted (unadjusted) prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities
Level 2: Other techniques for which all inputs which have a significant effect on the recorded fair value are observable either directly or indirectly
Level 3: Techniques which use inputs that have a significant effect on the recorded fair value that are not based on observable market data. For assets and liabilities that are recognised in the financial statements on a recurring basis, the Company determines whether transfers have occurred between levels in the hierarchy by re-assessing categorisation (based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole) at the end of each reporting period. For the purpose of fair value disclosures, the Company has determined classes of assets & liabilities on the basis of the nature, characteristics and the risks of the asset or liability and the level of the fair value hierarchy as explained above.
(xxiv) Earnings per share
Basic earnings per equity share is computed by dividing the net profit attributable to the equity holders of the company by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year.
Diluted earnings per equity share is computed by dividing the net profit attributable to the equity holders of the company by the weighted average number of equity shares considered for deriving basic earnings per equity share and also the weighted average number of equity shares that could have been issued upon conversion of all dilutive potential equity shares.
(xxv) Impairment of assets
At each balance sheet date, the Company reviews the carrying values of its property, plant and equipment and intangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that the carrying value of those assets may not be recoverable through continuing use. if any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is reviewed in order to determine the extent of impairment loss (if any).
Where the assets does not generate cash flows that are independent from other assets, the Company estimates the recoverable amount of the cash generating unit to which the asset belongs.
Recoverable amount is the highest of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. in assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset for which the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted. An impairment loss is recognised in the statement of profit and loss as and when the carrying value of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount.
where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying value of the asset (or cash generating unit) is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount so that the increased carrying value does not exceed the carrying value that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset (or cash generating unit) in prior years.
