B. Material Accounting Policies

1.1 Basis of Preparation:

These standalone financial statements are prepared on going concern basis following
accrual system of accounting and in compliance with the Indian Accounting
Standards (Ind AS) notified under the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards)
Rules, 2015 and subsequent amendments thereto, the Companies Act, 2013 (to the
extent notified and applicable) and the provisions of the Electricity Act, 2003 to the
extent applicable.

These financial statements were authorized for issue by the Board of Directors on
May 15, 2026.

Use of estimates and management judgments:

The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make
judgments, estimates and assumptions that may impact the application of accounting
policies and the reported value of Assets, Liabilities, Income, Expenses and related
disclosures concerning the items involved as well as contingent assets and liabilities
at the balance sheet date. The estimates and management’s judgements are based
on previous experience and other factor considered reasonable and prudent in the
circumstances. Actual results could vary from these estimates. The estimates and
underlying assumptions are reviewed on an on-going basis. Revisions to accounting
estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimates are revised and in any
future periods affected.

In order to enhance understanding of the financial statements, information about
significant areas of estimation, uncertainty and critical judgments in applying
accounting policies that may have the material effect on the amount recognized in the
financial statements are as under:

a) Useful life of Property, Plant & Equipment and intangible assets:

The estimated useful life of property, plant & equipment and intangible assets is based
on a number of factors including the effects of obsolescence, demand, competition
and other economic factors (such as the stability of the industry and known
technological advances) and the level of maintenance expenditure required to obtain
the expected future cash flow from the asset.

Useful life of the asset used for generation of electricity is determined by the Central
Electricity Regulatory Commission (CERC) tariff regulations as mentioned in Part-B
of schedule-II of the Companies act 2013 except for computer & peripherals, mobile
phones, Furniture & Fixture, Office/ Electrical Equipment and solar and wind power
plants which are as per management assessment.

b) Recoverable amount of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets:
The recoverable amount of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets is
based on estimates and assumptions regarding, in particular, the expected market
outlook and future cash flows associated with the power plants. Any changes in these
assumptions may have a material impact on the measurement of the recoverable
amount and could result in impairment.

c) Post-employment benefits plan:

Employee benefits obligations are measured on the basis of actuarial assumptions
which include mortality and withdrawal rates as well as assumptions concerning
future developments in discount rates, the rate of salary increases and the inflation
rate. The Company considers that the assumptions used to measure its obligations
are appropriate and documented. However, any changes in these assumptions may
have an impact on the resulting calculations.

d) Revenue:

The company recognizes revenue from sale of power based on tariff approved by the
CERC. However, in cases where tariff rates are yet to be approved, provisional rates
are adopted considering the applicable CERC tariff regulations / PPA signed with
beneficiaries.

e) Contract Assets:

Receivables arising out of the Company’s right to consideration in exchange for goods
and services that the Company has transferred/ provided to customers when that right
is conditioned upon matters other than passage of time, like filing of tariff petitions,
receiving of truing up orders of the CERC, etc. are recognized as Contract Assets.

f) Regulatory deferral account balances:

Recognition of regulatory deferral account balances involves significant judgments

including about future tariff regulations since these are based on estimation of the
amounts expected to be recoverable/payable through tariff in future.

g) Investment in Subsidiaries and Joint Ventures:

Investment has been carried at cost and as per assessment by the Company, there is
no indication of impairment on such investments. Any changes in assumption may
have a material impact on the measurement of the recoverable amount.

h) Provisions and contingencies:

The assessments undertaken in recognising provisions and contingencies have been
made in accordance with Ind AS 37, ‘Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent
Assets’. The evaluation of the likelihood of the contingent events has been made on
the basis of best judgment by management regarding probable outflow of economic
resources. Such estimation can change on occurrence of unforeseeable
developments.

i) MAT Credit Entitlements:

MAT credit entitlement is recognized as an asset in accordance with Ind AS 12, based
on reasonable certainty that the Company will generate sufficient future taxable
profits to utilize the credit within the specified period under the Income-tax Act, 1961.
The assessment involves significant judgment regarding future profitability and tax
laws. The asset is reviewed at each reporting date and is adjusted, if required, to
reflect the amount that is reasonably expected to be recovered.

1.2 Basis of Measurement:

These financial statements have been prepared on accrual basis and under the
historical cost convention except following which have been measured at fair value:

- financial assets and liabilities except certain Investments and borrowings carried at
amortised cost,

- assets held for sale - measured at fair value less cost of disposal,

- defined benefit plans - plan assets measured at fair value,

- Right of Use Assets - measured at fair value.

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. Normally at initial recognition, the transaction price is the best evidence of fair
value. However, when the Company determines that transaction price does not
represent the fair value, it uses inter-alia 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.

These 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, except as stated otherwise.

1.3 Property, plant and equipment (PPE)

a) The Company has opted to utilize the option under Ind AS 101 which permits to
continue to use the Indian GAAP carrying amount as a deemed cost under Ind AS
at the date oftransition to IndAS- Therefore, the carrying amount of property, plant
and equipment according to the Indian GAAP as at April 1, 2015 i.e. Company's
date of transition to Ind AS, were maintained in transition to Ind AS.

b) An item of PPE is recognized as an asset if 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.

c) PPE are initially measured at cost of acquisition/construction including decommissioning or
restoration cost wherever required. The cost includes expenditure that is directly
attributable to the acquisition/construction of the asset. Where final settlement of bills with
contractors is pending/under dispute, capitalization is done on estimated/provisional basis
subject to necessary adjustment in the year offinal settlement.

d) After initial recognition, Property, Plant & Equipment is carried at cost less
accumulated depreciation/amortisation and accumulated impairment losses, if any.

e) Deposits, Payments/liabilities made provisionally towards compensation, rehabilitation
and other expenses relatable to land in possession are treated as cost of land.

f) Asset created on land not belonging to the company where the company is having control
over the use and access of such asset are included under Property, Plant and Equipment.

g) Items of spare parts, stand-by equipment and servicing equipment which meet the
definition of property, plant and equipment are capitalized. The cost of replacing part
of an item of property, plant and equipment is recognised in the carrying amount of
the item if it is probable that the future economic benefits embodied within the part
will flow to the Company and its cost can be measured reliably. The carrying
amount of the replaced part is derecognised when no future economic benefits are
expected from its use or upon disposal. The costs of the day-to-day servicing of
property, plant and equipment are recognised in statement of profit and loss as and
when incurred. Other spares are treated as “stores & spares” forming part of the
inventory and charged to statement of profit & loss when used / consumed.

h) Subsequent expenditure is recognized as an increase in the carrying amount of the
asset when it is probable that future economic benefits deriving from the cost
incurred will flow to the company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably.

i) Expenditure incurred on renovation and modernization of PPE on completion of the
originally estimated useful life of the power station resulting in increased life and/or
efficiency of an existing asset, is added to the cost of the related asset.

j) Property, plant and equipment is derecognized when no future economic benefits are
expected from its use or upon its disposal. Gains and losses on disposal of an item of
property, plant and equipment is recognized in the statement of profit and loss.

1.4 Capital Work-in-progress

a) Expenditure incurred on assets under construction (including a project) is carried at
cost under Capital Work-in-progress (CWIP). Such cost comprises of purchase price
of asset including other costs directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location
and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the intended manner.

b) Cost directly attributable to projects under construction include costs of employee
benefits, expenditure in relation to survey and investigation activities of the projects,
depreciation on assets used in construction of projects, interest during construction
and other costs if attributable to construction of projects. Such costs are accumulated
under “Expenditure Attributable to Construction (EAC)” and subsequently allocated
on systematic basis over major immovable assets, other than land and infrastructure
facilities on commissioning of projects. Net pre-commissioning income/expenditure is
adjusted directly in the cost of related assets.

c) Capital Expenditure incurred for creation of facilities, over which the Company does
not have control but the creation of which is essential for construction of the project is
carried under “Capital Work-in-progress” and subsequently allocated on systematic
basis over major immovable assets, other than land and infrastructure facilities on
commissioning of projects. Expenditure of such nature incurred after completion of
the project, is charged to Statement of Profit and Loss.

d) Expenditure on Survey and Investigation of the Project is carried as capital work in
progress and capitalized as cost of Project on completion of construction of the Project or
the same is expensed in the year in which it is decided to abandon such project.

e) Expenditure against “Deposit Works” is accounted for on the basis of statement of
account received from the concerned agency and acceptance by the company.
However, provision is made wherever considered necessary.

f) Claims for price variation/ exchange rate variation in case of contracts are accounted
for on acceptance.

1.5 Non -CurrentAssets Held for Sale

The Company classifies non-current assets and disposal groups as held for sale if
their carrying amounts will be recovered principally through a sale rather than through
continuing use and a sale is considered highly probable.

Assets and disposal group identified/ approved for sale, which should be expected to
qualify for recognition as a completed sale within one year from the date of
classification as held for sale, and actions required to complete the plan of sale should
indicate that it is unlikely that significant changes to the plan will be made or that the
plan will be withdrawn. Non-Current Assets held for sale and disposal groups are
measured at the lower of their carrying amount and the fair value less cost to sell.
Non-current assets classified as held for sale are not depreciated or amortized.

1.6 Investment Property

a) Land or a building or part of building or both held by company to earn rentals or for
capital appreciation or both is classified as Investment property other than for:

i. Use in the production or supply of goods or services or for administrative purpose; or

ii. Sale in the ordinary course of business.

b) Investment property is recognised as an asset when, and only when:

i. It is probable that the future economic benefits that are associated with the investment
property will flow to the entity; and

ii. The cost of the investment property can be measured reliably.

c) Investment properties are initially measured at cost, including transaction costs.
Subsequent to initial recognition, investment properties are carried at cost less
accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment loss, if any.

d) Investment properties are derecognised either when they have been disposed off or
when they are permanently withdrawn from use and no future economic benefit is
expected from their disposal. The difference between the net disposal proceeds and
the carrying amount of the asset is recognised in the statement of profit and loss in the
period of derecognition.

e) Transfers to or from investment property is made when and only when there is a
change in use.

1.7 Intangible Assets and intangible assets under development

a) Intangible assets are identifiable non-monetary asset without physical substance.
Intangible assets are recognised if:

i. It is probable that the expected future economic benefit that are attributable to the
asset will flow to the entity; and

ii. the cost of the asset can be measured reliably.

b) Intangible assets acquired separately are measured on initial recognition at cost. After
initial recognition, intangible assets are carried at cost less any accumulated
amortisation and accumulated impairment losses.

c) Subsequent expenditure on already capitalized Intangible assets is capitalised when
it increases the future economic benefits embodied in an existing asset and is
amortised prospectively.

d) Software (not being an integral part of the related hardware) acquired for internal use, is
stated at cost of acquisition less accumulated amortisation and impairment losses, if any.

e) An item of Intangible asset is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic
benefits are expected from its 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 the
Statement of Profit and Loss when the asset is derecognised.

f) Expenditure on development activities is capitalised only if the expenditure can be
measured reliably, the product or process is technically and commercially feasible,
future economic benefits are probable and the company intends to & has sufficient
resources to complete development and to use or sell the asset.

g) Expenditure incurred which are eligible for capitalisation under intangible assets are
carried as intangible assets under development till they are ready for their intended use.

1.8 Regulatory deferral accounts

a) Expenses/ income recognized in the Statement of Profit & Loss to the extent recoverable
from or payable to the beneficiaries in subsequent periods as per CERC Tariff Regulations
are recognized as ‘Regulatory deferral account balances’ as per IndAS-114.

b) Regulatory deferral account balances are adjusted from the year in which the same
become recoverable from or payable to the beneficiaries.

c) Regulatory deferral account balances are evaluated at each balance sheet date to
ensure that the underlying activities meet the recognition criteria and it is probable that
future economic benefits associated with such balances will flow to the entity. If these
criteria are not met, the regulatory deferral account balances are derecognised.

1.9 Impairment of non-financial assets

a) The carrying amounts of the Company’s non-financial assets primarily include
property, plant and equipment and Capital-work-in-progress, which are reviewed at
each reporting date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any
such indication exists, then the asset’s recoverable amount is estimated. An asset’s
recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s or cash-generating unit’s (CGU’s) fair
value less costs of disposal and its value in use. Recoverable amount is determined
for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are
largely independent of those from other assets of the Company. When the carrying
amount of an asset or CGU exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is considered
impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount. The resulting impairment loss
is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

b) 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. In determining fair value
less costs of disposal, recent market transactions are taken into account. If no such
transactions can be identified, an appropriate valuation model is used.

c) Impairment losses recognized in earlier period are assessed at each reporting date
for any indication that loss has decreased or no longer exists. An impairment loss is
reversed if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the
recoverable amount. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset’s
carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been
determined, net of depreciation or amortisation, if no impairment loss had been
recognized.

1.10 Inventories

a) Inventories mainly comprise stores and spare parts to be used for maintenance of
Property, Plant and Equipment.

b) Inventories and Certified Emission Reduction (CERs-Carbon Credit) are valued at the
lower of cost and net realizable value.

c) Cost includes cost of purchase and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to
their present location and condition. Cost is determined on weighted average basis.

d) Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less
estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.

e) Net realizable value of obsolete, unserviceable and surplus stores & spares is
ascertained at the end of financial year and provided for, wherever required. Scrap is
accounted for as and when sold.

1.11 Foreign Currency Transactions:

a) Functional and presentation currency:

These financial statements have been presented in Indian Rupees ('), which is the
Company’s functional and presentation currency.

b) Transactions and balances

i. Transactions in foreign currency are initially recorded at exchange rate prevailing on
the date of transaction. At each Balance Sheet date, monetary items denominated in
foreign currency are translated at the exchange rates prevailing on that date. Non¬
monetary items denominated in foreign currency are reported at the exchange rate
prevailing at the date of transaction.

ii. Exchange differences arising on translation or settlement of monetary items are
recognised in the statement of profit and loss in the year in which it arises with the
exception that exchange differences on long term monetary items related to
acquisition of fixed assets entered up to March 31,2016 are adjusted to carrying cost
of fixed assets.

iii. In case of advance consideration received or paid in a foreign currency, the date of
transaction for the purpose of determining the exchange rate to use on initial
recognition of the related asset, expense or income (or part of it), is when the
Company initially recognises the non-monetary asset or non-monetary liability arising
from the payment or receipt of advance consideration.

The Company has elected to avail the exemption available under IND AS 101, with
regard to continuation of policy for accounting of exchange differences arising from
translation of long term foreign currency monetary liabilities.

1.12 Financial instruments - initial recognition, subsequent measurement and
impairment

A financial instrument is any contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one entity
and a financial liability or equity instrument of another entity.

a) Financial Assets

A financial asset includes inter-alia any asset that is cash, equity instrument of another
entity or contractual obligation to receive cash or another financial assets or to
exchange financial asset or financial liability under condition that are potentially
favourable to the Company. A financial asset is recognized when and only when the
Company becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Financial
assets of the Company comprise cash and cash equivalents, Bank Balances, Loans
to employees/ contractors, security deposit, claims recoverable etc.

Initial recognition and measurement:

i. All financial assets except trade receivables are recognised initially at fair value plus in
the case of financial assets not recorded at fair value through profit or loss, transaction
costs that are attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset. T ransaction costs of
financial assets carried at fair value through profit or loss are expensed in statement of
profit or loss.

ii. The company measures the trade receivables at their transaction price if the trade
receivables do not contain a significant financing component. A receivable is
classified as a ‘trade receivable’ if it is in respect to the amount due from customers on
account of goods sold or services rendered in the ordinary course of business.

Subsequent measurement:

i. Financial Assets are measured at amortized cost or fair value through Other
Comprehensive Income or fair value through Profit or Loss, depending on its business
model for managing those financial assets and the assets contractual cash flow
characteristics.

ii. After initial measurement, financial assets classified at amortised cost are
subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate (EIR)
method. EIR is the rate that exactly discounts the estimated future cash payments or
receipts over the expected life of the financial instrument. Amortised cost is calculated
by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs that
are an integral part of the EIR. The EIR amortisation is included in finance income in
the statement of profit and loss.

iii. Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income are measured at
each reporting date at fair value. Fair value changes are recognized in the other
comprehensive income (OCI). However, the company recognizes interest income,
impairment losses and reversals and foreign exchange gain or loss in the Statement
of Profit and Loss. On derecognition of the financial asset other than equity
instruments, cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in OCI is reclassified to the
Statement of Profit and Loss.

iv. Any financial asset that does not meet the criteria for classification as at amortized
cost or as financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income, is
classified as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss. Financial assets at fair
value through profit or loss are fair valued at each reporting date with all the changes
recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

Impairment of financial assets:

i. For impairment purposes significant financial assets are tested on an individual basis,

other financial assets are assessed collectively in groups that share similar credit risk
characteristics.

ii. In accordance with Ind-AS 109, the Company applies expected credit loss (ECL)
model for measurement and recognition of impairment loss and follows ‘simplified
approach’ for recognition of impairment loss allowance on trade receivables or
contract assets resulting from transactions within the scope of Ind-AS 115.

iii. The application of simplified approach does not require the company to track changes
in credit risk. Rather, it recognises impairment loss allowance based on lifetime ECLs
at each reporting date, right from its initial recognition.

iv. For recognition of impairment loss on other financial assets, the company assesses
whether there has been a significant increase in the credit risk since initial recognition.
If credit risk has increased significantly, ECL is provided. For assessing increase in
credit risk and impairment loss, the company assesses the credit risk characteristics
on instrument-by-instrument basis.

v. Impairment loss allowance (or reversal) recognized during the period is recognized as
expense/income in the statement of profit and loss.

Derecognition:

A financial asset is derecognised when all the cash flows associated with the financial asset

has been realised or such rights have expired.

b) Financial liabilities

Financial liabilities of the Company are contractual obligation to deliver cash or
another financial asset to another entity or to exchange financial assets or financial
liabilities with another entity under conditions that are potentially unfavourable to the
Company. The Company’s financial liabilities include loans & borrowings, trade and
other payables etc.

Classification, initial recognition and measurement:

a) Financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value minus transaction costs that
are directly attributable to the issue of financial liabilities. Any difference between the
proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the fair value at initial recognition is
recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss or in the “Expenditure Attributable to
Construction” if another standard permits inclusion of such cost in the carrying
amount of an asset over the period of the borrowings using the effective rate of
interest.

b) 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.

Subsequent measurement:

a) After initial recognition, financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortised
cost using the EIR method. Gains and losses are recognised in Statement of Profit
and Loss or in the “Expenditure Attributable to Construction” if another standard
permits inclusion of such cost in the carrying amount of an asset, when the liabilities
are derecognised as well as through the EIR amortisation process.

b) Amortised cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on
acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of the EIR. The EIR amortisation
is included as finance costs in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

Derecognition:

A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or

cancelled or expires.

c) Offsetting of financial instruments

Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the
balance sheet if there is a currently enforceable legal right to offset the recognised
amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis, to realise the assets and
settle the liabilities simultaneously.

1.13 Investment in Subsidiaries

a) A subsidiary is an entity controlled by the Company. Control exists when the Company
has power over the entity, is exposed, or has rights to variable returns from its
involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns by using its power
over entity. Power is demonstrated through existing rights that give the ability to direct
relevant activities, those which significantly affect the entity’s returns.

b) Investments in subsidiaries are carried at cost. The cost comprises price paid to
acquire investment and directly attributable cost. On transition to IND AS, the
Company has adopted optional exemption under IND AS 101 to value investments in
subsidiaries at cost less impairment, if any.

1.14 Investment in joint ventures and associates:

a) A joint venture is a type of joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control

of the arrangement have rights to the net assets of the joint venture. Joint control is the
contractually agreed sharing of control of an arrangement, which exists only when
decisions about the relevant activities require unanimous consent of the parties
sharing control.

b) An associate is an entity over which the Company has significant influence.
Significant influence is the power to participate in the financial and operating policy
decisions of the investee but does not have control or joint control over those policies.

c) The investment in joint ventures and associates are carried at cost. The cost
comprises price paid to acquire investment and directly attributable cost less
impairment, if any.

1.15 Leases

The Company has adopted Ind AS 116-Leases effective 1st April, 2019, using the
modified retrospective method. The Company has applied the standard to its leases
with the cumulative impact recognised on the date of initial application (1st April,
2019).

Lease is a contract that conveys the right to control the use of 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 use of an identified
assets, (ii) the customer has substantially all the economic benefits from the use of the
asset through the period of the lease and (iii) the customer has the right to direct the
use ofthe asset.

i) As a lessee

At the date of commencement of 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 lease with a term of twelve months or less (i.e. short term leases)
and leases for which the underlying asset is of low value. For these short-term and
leases for which underlying asset is of low value, the company recognizes the lease
payments on the straight-line basis over the term of the lease.

Certain lease arrangements include the options to extend or terminate the lease
before the end of the lease term. ROU assets and lease liability includes these options
when it is reasonably certain that they will be exercised.

The right-to-use assets are initially recognized at cost, which comprises the amount of
initial measurement of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or
before the inception date of lease along with the initial direct costs, restoration
obligations and lease incentives received.

Subsequently, the right-to-use assets is measured at cost less any accumulated
depreciation, accumulated impairment losses, if any and adjusted for any
remeasurement of lease liability. The Company applies Ind AS 36 to determine
whether a ROU asset is impaired and accounts for any identified impairment loss as
described in accounting policy 1.9 on “Impairment of non-financial assets”.

The lease liability is initially measured at present value of the lease payments that are
not paid at the commencement date, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the
lease or, if that rate cannot be readily determined, the Company’s incremental
borrowing rate. Generally, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate as the
discount rate.

The interest cost on lease liability is expensed in the Statement of Profit and Loss,
unless eligible for capitalization as per accounting policy 1.17 on “Borrowing Cost”.
Lease liability and ROU assets have been separately presented in the financial
statements and lease payments have been classified as financing cash flows.

ii) As a Lessor

Leases for which the Company is a lessor is classified as a finance or operating lease.
Whenever the terms of the lease transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of
ownership to the lessee, the contract is classified as a finance lease. All other leases
are classified as operating leases.

For operating leases, rental income is recognised on a straight line basis over the term
of the relevant lease.

1.16 Government Grants

a) Government grants with a condition to purchase, construct or otherwise acquire long¬
term assets are initially measured based on grant receivable under the scheme. Such
grants are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss on a systematic basis over
the useful life of the asset. Amount of benefits receivable in excess of grant income
accrued based on usage of the assets is accounted as Government grant received in
advance. Changes in estimates are recognised prospectively over the remaining life
of the assets.

b) Government revenue grants relating to costs are deferred and recognised in the
Statement of Profit and Loss over the period necessary to match them with the costs
that they are intended to compensate.

c) Non-monetary government grants are recorded at a nominal amount.

1.17 Borrowing cost

Borrowing costs consist of interest and other costs that an entity incurs in connection
with the borrowing of funds. Borrowing cost also includes interest expense on lease
liabilities recognized in accordance with Ind AS 116- ‘Leases’ and exchange
differences to the extent regarded as an adjustment to the borrowing costs. Borrowing

costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction/erection or production of a
qualifying asset that necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its
intended use or sale are capitalised as part of the cost of the asset. Capitalisation of
borrowing costs ceases when substantially all the activities necessary to prepare the
qualifying assets for their intended uses are complete. All other borrowing costs are
expensed in the period in which they occur.

Income earned on temporary investment made out of the borrowings pending
utilization for expenditure on the qualifying assets is deducted from the borrowing
costs eligible for capitalization.
