3. Summary of Material Accounting Policies:
The standalone financial statements have been prepared using the accounting policies and measurement basis summarized below. The Accounting Policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated.
3.1 Basis of Measurement
The standalone financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis and on accrual basis, except for the following material items in the balance sheet:
• Long-Term borrowings are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method.
• Certain financial assets are measured either at fair value or at amortised cost depending on the classification.
• Employee defined benefit assets/ (liabilities) are recognized as the net total of the fair value of plan assets, plus actuarial losses, less actuarial gains and the present value of the defined benefit obligation.
• Right-of use the assets are recognized at the present value of lease payments that are not paid at that date.
3.2 Current and Non- Current Classification:
The Company presents assets and liabilities in the balance sheet based on current and non-current classification.
All assets and liabilities have been classified as current or non-current as per the Company's normal operating cycle and other criteria set out in the schedule III (Division II) to the companies Act,2013 and Ind AS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements.
ASSETS:
i. An asset is classified as current when it satisfies any of the following criteria:
• Expected to be realised or intended to be sold or consumed in normal operating cycle;
• Held primarily for the purpose of trading;
• Expected to be realised within twelve months after the reporting period, or
• Cash or Cash Equivalent unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period.
ii. Current assets include the current portion of non-current assets. All other Assets are classified as non-current.
LIABILITIES:
(i) A liability is classified as current when it satisfies the any of the following criteria:
• Expected to settle the liability in normal operating cycle;
• Held primarily for the purpose of trading;
• Due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period, or
• There is no unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period.
(ii) Current liabilities include the current portion of non¬ current liabilities. All Other liabilities are classified as non-current.
Deferred Tax Assets and Liabilities are always classified as non-current assets and liabilities.
The Operating Cycle is the time between the acquisition of assets for processing and their realisation in Cash and Cash Equivalents. The Company has identified Twelve months as its Operating Cycle.
3.3 Revenue Recognition:
Revenue is recognized upon transfer of control of promised products or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for those products or services. 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,
(4) allocate the transaction price to the performance
obligations in the contract, and
(5) recognize revenues when a performance
obligation is satisfied.
The specific recognition criteria described below must also be met before revenue is recognised.
The Company's revenue is derived from sale of goods, sale of services. Most of such revenue is generated from the sale of goods. Accounting policies relating to revenue for the periods are as follows:
(i) Revenue from Sale of Goods:
Revenue is recognized when the control of the goods has been transferred to a third party. This is usually when the title passes to the customer, either upon shipment or upon receipt of goods by the customer. At that point, the customer has full discretion over the channel and price to sell the products, and there are no unfulfilled obligations that could affect the customer's acceptance of the product.
Revenue from the sale of goods is measured at the transaction price which is the consideration received or receivable, net of returns, taxes and applicable trade discounts and allowances. Revenue includes shipping and handling costs billed to the customer.
In arriving at the transaction price, the Company considers the terms of the contract with the customers and its customary business practices. The transaction price is the amount of consideration the Company is entitled to receive in exchange for transferring promised goods or services, excluding amounts collected on behalf of third parties. The amount of consideration varies because of estimated rebates, returns and chargebacks, which are considered to be key estimates. Any amount of variable consideration is recognised as revenue only to the extent that it is highly probable that a significant reversal will not occur. The Company estimates the amount of variable consideration using the expected value method
(ii) Revenue from Sale of Services:
Revenue from Sale of services is recognised as per the terms of the contracts with customers when the related services are performed or the agreed milestones are achieved.
(iii) Export incentives:
Export incentives are recognized as income when the right to receive credit as per the terms of the scheme is established in respect of the export made and where there is no significant uncertainty regarding the ultimate collection of the relevant export proceeds.
(iv) Dividend Income:
Dividends are recognised as other income in profit or loss when the right to receive payment is established, which is generally when shareholders approve the dividend.
(v) Interest Income:
Interest income from financial assets at fair value through profit or loss is disclosed as interest income within other income. Interest income, on financial assets at amortised cost and financial assets at FVOCI, is calculated using the effective interest method and the same is recognized in the statement of profit and loss as part of other income. Interest income is calculated by applying the effective interest rate to the gross carrying amount of a financial asset except for financial assets
that subsequently become credit-impaired. For credit- impaired financial assets, the effective interest rate is applied to the net carrying amount of the financial asset (after deduction of the loss allowance).
3.4 Foreign Currency Transactions:
(i) Functional and Presentation Currency:
The standalone financial statements are presented in Indian Rupee ('INR' or 'H') which is also the functional currency of the Company.
(ii) Initial Recognition:
Foreign currency transactions are recorded in the functional currency, by applying to the exchange rate between the functional currency and the foreign currency at the date of the transaction.
(iii) Conversion on Reporting Date:
Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded by the Company at its functional currency spot rates at the date the transaction first qualifies for initial recognition. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the functional currency spot rates of exchange at the reporting date.
(iv) Exchange Differences:
Exchange differences arising on the settlement of monetary items, or on reporting monetary items of company at rates different from those at which they were initially recorded during the year or reported in previous financial statements are recognized in the statement of profit and loss in the year in which they arise.
(v) Non-Monetary Items:
Non-Monetary Items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the dates of the initial transactions.
3.5 Property, Plant and Equipment:
(i) Recognition and Initial Measurement
Property, Plant and Equipment is initially recognized at their cost of acquisition. The cost comprises purchase price, including import duties and non-refundable taxes, after deducting trade discounts and rebates.
Cost includes any directly attributable costs of bringing the asset to its working condition for the intended use by management and borrowing costs if recognition criteria are met.
Assets under installation or under construction as at the Balance Sheet date are stated at cost and shown as Capital Work in Progress. Advances paid towards acquisition of assets are shown as Capital Advances.
Borrowing Cost relating to acquisition of Property, Plant and Equipment which takes substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use are also included to the extent they relate to the period till such assets are ready for its intended use.
Subsequent Costs are included in the asset's carrying amount or recognized as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Company. All other repair and maintenance costs are recognized in statement of profit or loss as incurred.
(ii) Subsequent Measurement (Depreciation and Useful Lives)
Depreciation on property, plant and equipment is provided on the straight-line basis over the useful lives as estimated by management which coincides with useful life prescribed in Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013. Freehold land is not depreciated.
Depreciation on addition to/deletion from fixed assets made during the year is provided on pro-rata basis from/up to the date of such addition/deletion as the case may be. In case of assets costing less than H5,000/- purchased during the year also depreciation has been provided at normal rates on pro-rata basis from the date of purchase.
The residual values, useful lives and method of depreciation are reviewed at each financial year end by management based on the expected utility of the asset and adjusted prospectively, if appropriate.
(iii) De-recognition
An item of Property, Plant and Equipment and any significant part initially recognized is derecognized upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss arising on de-recognition of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds
and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in the statement of profit and loss when the asset is derecognized.
(iv) Capital advances
Advances paid towards acquisition of tangible fixed assets outstanding at each balance sheet date are shown under other non-current assets as capital advances.
(v) Capital work-in-progress
Capital work-in-progress includes cost of property, plant and equipment under installation/construction as at the balance sheet date.
(vi) Impairment :
The Company assesses, at each reporting date, whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. If any indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the Company estimates the asset's recoverable amount. An asset's recoverable amount is the higher of an asset's or cash-generating unit's (CGU) 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 or groups of assets. 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.
3.6 Intangible Assets:
(i) Recognition and Initial Measurement
Intangible Assets are initially recognized at their cost of acquisition. The cost comprises purchase price, including import duties and non-refundable taxes, after deducting trade discounts and rebates.
Cost includes any directly attributable costs of bringing the asset to its working condition for the intended use by management and borrowing costs if recognition criteria is met.
(ii) Subsequent measurement (amortization):
The cost incurred on Intangible Assets is amortized on straight line basis over a period of estimated useful life of 6 years in case of Computer Software and 4 years for Patents.
3.7 Leases:
The company assesses at contract inception whether a contract is, or contains, a lease. That is, if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration.
Company as a lessee
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 short-term leases and leases of low-value assets. Lease liabilities representing the lease payments to be made and right-of-use assets representing the right to control the use of underlying assets.
i) Right-of-use assets
Right-of-use 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, if any, and adjusted for any measurement of lease liabilities. Right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight line basis over the shorter of the lease term and estimated useful lives of the assets, as follows:
If ownership of the leased asset transfers to the Company at the end of the lease term or the cost of right to use asset reflects the exercise of a purchase option, depreciation is calculated using the estimated useful life of the asset.
Costs incurred relating to Right-of-use assets accounted by applying other applicable standards,such as Ind AS 16 and depreciated on straight line basis over the lease period.
ii) Lease Liabilities
At the commencement date of the lease, lease liabilities initially recognized at amortized cost at the present value of lease payments to be made over the lease term. The lease payments include fixed payments (including in substance fixed payments) less any lease incentives receivable, variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, and amounts expected to be paid by lessee under residual value guarantees. The lease payments also include the exercise price of
a purchase option if the company is reasonably certain to be exercised that option and payments of penalties for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the Company exercising the option to terminate.
In calculating the present value of lease payments, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate being the rate that the company would have to pay to borrow the funds necessary to obtain an asset of similar value to the right- of-use asset in a similar economic environment with similar terms, security and conditions at the lease commencement date because the interest rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable. After the commencement date, the amount of lease liabilities is increased to reflect the accretion of interest and reduced for the lease payments made. In addition, the carrying amount of lease liabilities is remeasured if there is a change in the lease term, a change in the lease payments (e.g., changes to future payments resulting from a change in an index or rate used to determine such lease payments) or a change in the assessment of an option to purchase the underlying asset.
iii) Short-term leases and leases of low-value assets
The Company applies the short-term lease recognition exemption to its short-term leases of asset (i.e., those leases that have a lease term of 12 months or less from the commencement date and do not contain a purchase option). It also applies the lease of low value assets recognition exemption to leases in which underlying assets are considered to be low value. Lease payments on short-term leases and leases of low-value assets are recognized as expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term or another systematic basis if that basis is more representative of the pattern of the benefit.
Lease liability and ROU asset have been separately presented in the Balance Sheet and lease payments have been classified as financing activity in cash flow statement.
Company as a Lessor:
Leases in which the Company does not transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of an asset are classified as operating leases. Rental income from operating lease is recognised on a straight-line basis over the term of the relevant lease. Initial direct costs incurred in negotiating and arranging an operating lease are added to the carrying
amount of the leased asset and recognised over the lease term on the same basis as rental income.
3.8 Inventories:
Raw material, packaging material, are carried at cost. Stores and spares are being charged to revenue as and when purchased. Cost includes purchase price excluding taxes those are subsequently recoverable by the company from the concerned authorities, freight inwards and other expenditure incurred in bringing such inventories to their present location and condition. Cost of Raw Material, packaging material is determined using the weighted average cost method.
The carrying cost of raw materials, packing materials are appropriately written down to replacement cost if the finished products in which they will be incorporated are expected to be sold below cost.
Finished goods and work in progress are valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost of work in progress and manufactured finished goods is determined on weighted average basis and comprises cost of direct material, cost of conversion and other costs incurred in bringing these inventories to their present location and condition. Cost of traded goods is determined on weighted average basis.
Net realizable 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.
Spare Parts, Stand-by Equipment and Servicing Equipment are recognized in accordance with Ind AS-16 when they meet the definition of property, plant and Equipment. Otherwise, such items are classified as inventory and are valued at Cost.
3.9 Cash and Cash Equivalents:
Cash and Cash equivalents include cash on hand and at bank, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term, highly liquid investment with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value and are held for meeting short-term cash commitments.
For the purpose of the statement of Cash Flows, cash and cash equivalents consists of cash and short term deposits, as defined above, net of outstanding bank overdraft as they are being considered as integral part of the Company's cash management.
3.10 Financial Instruments:
(i) Financial Assets
(a) Initial recognition and measurement
All financial assets are recognised initially at fair value and transaction cost that is attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset is also adjusted.
(b) Subsequent measurement Debt instruments -
A 'debt instrument' is measured at the amortised cost if both the following conditions are met:
• The asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets for collecting contractual cash flows, and
• Contractual terms of the asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest (SPPI) on the principal amount outstanding
After initial measurement, such financial assets are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate (EIR) method.
Equity investments -
All equity investments in scope of Ind-AS 109 are measured at fair value. Equity instruments which are held for trading are generally classified as at fair value through profit and loss (FVTPL). For all other equity instruments, the Company decides to classify the same either as at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI) or fair value through profit and loss (FVTPL). The Company makes such election on an instrument by instrument basis. The classification is made on initial recognition and is irrevocable.
Investment in Associates, Subsidiaries and Joint Venture:
Investments in Subsidiaries, Associates and Joint ventures are carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses, if any. Where an indication of impairment exists, the carrying amount of the investment is assessed and written down to its recoverable amount. On disposal of investments in subsidiaries and joint venture, the difference between net disposal proceeds and the carrying
amounts are recognised in the statement of profit and loss.
(c) De-recognition of financial assets
A financial asset is primarily de-recognised when the rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired or the Company has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from the asset.
(d) Trade Receivables:
Trade receivables are amounts due from customers for goods sold or services performed in the ordinary course of business and reflects unconditional right to consideration (that is, payment is due only on the passage of time). Trade receivables are recognized initially at the transaction price as they do not contain significant financing components. The Company holds the trade receivables with the objective of collecting the contractual cash flows and therefore measures them subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less loss allowance.
(ii) Financial liabilities
(a) Initial Recognition and Measurement
All financial liabilities are recognized initially at fair value and transaction cost that is attributable to the acquisition of the financial liabilities is also adjusted. These liabilities are classified as amortized cost.
(b) Subsequent Measurement
These liabilities include borrowings and deposits. Subsequent to initial recognition, these liabilities are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method.
(c) De-recognition of Financial Liabilities
A financial liability is de-recognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires. When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as the de-recognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability. The difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognised in the statement of profit or loss.
(d) Loans and Borrowings:
Borrowings are initially recognized at fair value, net of transaction cost incurred. Borrowings are subsequently measured at amortized cost. Any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption amount is recognized in profit or loss over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method.
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 recognized in profit or loss as other gains/(losses).
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 financial statements for issue, not to demand payment as consequence of the breach.
(e) Trade and other Payables:
These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the company prior to the end of financial year which are unpaid. Trade and other payables are presented as current liabilities unless payment is not due within 12 months after the reporting period. They are recognized initially at their fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method
(iii) Financial Guarantee Contracts
Financial Guarantee Contracts are those contracts that require a payment to be made to reimburse the holder for a loss it incurs because the specified party fails to make a payment when due in accordance with the terms of a debt instrument. Financial guarantee contracts are recognized initially as a liability at fair value, adjusted for transaction costs that are directly attributable to the issuance of the guarantee. Subsequently, the liability is measured at the higher of the amount of expected loss allowance determined as per impairment requirements of Ind-AS 109 and the amount recognised less cumulative amortization.
(iv) 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 recognized amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis, to realise the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.
(v) Impairment of Trade Receivables
In accordance with Ind-AS 109, the Company applies expected credit loss (ECL) model for measurement and recognition of impairment loss on trade receivables.
For this purpose, the company follows a "simplified approach” for recognition of impairment loss allowance on the trade receivable balances. The application of this 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.
ECL is the difference between all contractual cash flows that are due to the Company in accordance with the contract and all the cash flows that the Company expects to receive.
As a practical expedient, the company uses a provision matrix to determine impairment loss allowance on portfolio of its trade receivables. The provision matrix is based on its historically observed default rates over the expected life of the trade receivables and is adjusted for forward-looking estimates. At every reporting date, the historical observed default rates are updated and changes in the forward-looking estimates are analysed.
(vi) Impairment of other Financial Assets:
For recognition of impairment loss on other financial assets and risk exposure, the company determines whether there has been a significant increase in the credit risk since initial recognition.
If credit risk has not increased significantly,12-month ECL is used to provide for impairment loss. However, if credit risk has increased significantly, lifetime ECL is used. Lifetime ECL are the expected credit losses resulting from all possible default events over the expected life of a financial instrument. The 12-month ECL is a portion of the lifetime ECL which results from default events that are possible within 12 months after the reporting date.
3.11 Income Taxes:
Current Tax
Tax expense comprises of current and deferred tax. Current tax is measured at the amount expected to be paid to the tax authorities in accordance with tax laws enacted or substantially enacted at the end of the reporting period. Current tax includes taxes to be paid on the profit earned during the year and adjustment to tax payable in respect of prior periods, if any.
Deferred Tax
Deferred income taxes are provided based on the balance sheet approach considering the temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes at the reporting date.
Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for all taxable temporary differences, except for the temporary differences on the initial recognition of assets or liabilities in a transaction that is not a business combination and that affects neither accounting nor taxable profit.
Deferred tax assets are recognized for all deductible temporary differences, the carry forward of unused tax credits and any unused tax losses except for the deductible temporary differences on the initial recognition of assets or liabilities in a transaction that is not a business combination and that affects neither accounting nor taxable profit. Deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that there is reasonable certainty that sufficient future taxable income will be available against which the deductible temporary differences can be utilized. In situations where a component has unabsorbed depreciation or carry forward tax losses, all deferred tax assets are recognised only if it is probable that they can be utilised against future taxable profits.
The Carrying amount of deferred tax assets are reviewed at each balance sheet date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient future taxable income will be available against which the deductible temporary differences can be utilized. Unrecognized deferred tax assets are re-assessed at each reporting date and are recognized to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profits will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered.
Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates that are expected to be applied to the temporary differences when they reverse, based on the laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.
Deferred tax relating to items recognized outside profit or loss is recognized outside profit or loss(either in other comprehensive income or in equity).Deferred tax items are recognized in correlation to the underlying transaction either in OCI or directly in equity.
3.12 Segment Reporting:
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker. The Chairman and managing director has been identified as being the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM). The Company is engaged in manufacturing and sale of Active Pharma Ingredients and their Intermediates and operates in a single operating segment. Revenues are attributed to geographical areas based on the location of the customers.
3.13 Government Grants:
Government grants are recognized at their fair value where there is reasonable assurance that the grant will be received and all attached conditions will be complied with.
Government grants relating to income are deferred and recognized in the profit or loss over the period necessary to match them with the costs that they are intended to compensate and presented within other income.
Government grants relating to the purchase of property, plant and equipment are included in non-current liabilities as deferred income and are credited to profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the expected lives of the related assets and presented within other income.
Export incentives are recognized as income when the right to receive credit as per the terms of the scheme is established in respect of the exports made and where there is no significant uncertainty regarding the ultimate collection of the relevant export proceeds.
3.14 Borrowing Cost
Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of an asset that necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use or sale are capitalized as part of the cost of the asset. All other borrowing costs are expensed in the period in which they occur. Borrowing costs consist of interest and other costs that an entity incurs in connection with the borrowing of funds. Borrowing cost also includes exchange differences to the extent regarded as an adjustment to the borrowing costs.
