These are Company's first financial statements prepared in accordance with Ind AS and Ind AS 101 'First time adoption of Indian Accounting Standards' has been applied. An explanation and effect of transition from Indian GAAP (Referred to as "Previous GAAP") to Ind AS has been described in note 2(c) to these standalone Ind AS financial statements.
(b) Basis for preparation of the standalone Ind AS financial statements:
The standalone Ind AS financial statementshave been prepared under the historical cost basis which is generally based on the fair value of consideration given in exchange for goods and services.
(c) First-Time Adoption of Ind AS
The Company has prepared its first Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS) compliant standalone financial statements for the periods commencing from April 1, 2021 with restated comparative figures for the year ended March 31, 2024. The Company has prepared these standalone financial statements in accordance with Ind AS notified under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013. Accordingly, the Balance Sheet in line with Ind AS transitional provisions has been prepared as at April 1, 2021 i.e. the date of Company's transition to Ind AS.
Ind AS 101 also allows to first time adopter certain exemptions from the retrospective application of certain requirements under Ind AS. Accordingly, the company has availed the following exemptions/mandatory exceptions as per Ind AS 101:
(i) Fair Value as Deemed Cost Exemption: -
The company has elected to measure items of property, plant & equipment and intangible assets at its carrying value at the transition date.
(ii) Investments in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates: -
The company has elected to measure investment in subsidiaries, joint venture and associate at cost.
(iii) Classification & Fair value measurement of financial assets or financial liabilities at initial recognition: -
The financial assets and financial liabilities have been classified on the basis of facts existing as at the date of transition to Ind AS. In addition, the exemption permits prospective application of requirements of Ind AS 109 to transactions entered into on or after date of transition.
(d) Use of Estimates:
The preparation of standalone financial statements requires the management of the company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities on the date of the financial statements, disclosure of contingent liabilities as at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reported period. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimates are revised.
(e) Critical accounting estimates
(i) Income Taxes
Significant judgments are involved in determining the provision for income taxes, including amount expected to be paid/recovered for uncertain tax positions.
(ii) Impairment of Investments:
The carrying value of investments is reviewed at cost annually, or more frequently whenever, there is indication for impairment. If the recoverable amount is less than the carrying amount, the impairment loss is accounted for.
(iii) Provisions:
Provisions are recognized when the company has a present obligation as a result of past event and it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation, in respect of which a reliable estimate can be made. These are reviewed at each balance sheet date adjusted to reflect the current best estimates.
(f) Property, plant and equipment
Properties, Plant & equipment are stated at actual cost less accumulated depreciation and net of impairment. The actual cost capitalized includes material cost, freight, installation cost, duties and taxes, eligible borrowing costs and other incidental expenses incurred during the construction/ installation stage.
The Company has chosen the cost model for recognition and this model is applied to all class of assets. After recognition as an asset, an item of PPE is carried at its cost less any accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses.
Depreciable amount of an asset is the cost of an asset less its estimated residual value.
Depreciation on Property, Plant and Equipment, including assets taken on lease, other than freehold land is charged based on Straight Line method on an estimated useful life as prescribed in Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013. The useful life of asset taken into consideration as per Schedule II for the purpose of calculating depreciation is as follows: -
An item of Property, Plant and Equipment is derecognized upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset. Any gain or loss arising on the disposal or retirement of an item of Property, Plant and Equipment are determined as a difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and is recognized in the profit and loss.
At the end of each reporting period, the Company reviews the carrying amounts of tangible and intangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss.
(g) Intangible assets and amortisation thereof
Intangible assets, representing software is initially recognised at cost and subsequently carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment. The intangible assets are amortised using the straight line method over a period of five years, which is the Management's
estimate of its useful life. The useful lives of intangible assets are reviewed at each financial year end and adjusted prospectively, if appropriate.
(a) Revenue recognition:
Revenue is recognised to the extent it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Company & revenue is reliably measured.
(i) Interest Income: The Company recognises interest income using Effective Interest Rate (EIR) on all financial assets subsequently measured at amortised cost. EIR is calculated by considering all costs and incomes attributable to acquisition of a financial asset or assumption of a financial liability and it represents a rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments/receipts through the expected life of the financial asset/financial liability to the gross carrying amount of a financial asset or to the amortised cost of a financial liability.
(ii) Dividend: Dividend income from investments is recognised when the shareholders' right to receive payment has been established which is generally when the shareholders approve the dividend.
(iii) Other revenue from operations: The Company recognises revenue from contracts with customers (other than financial assets to which Ind AS 109 'Financial Instruments' is applicable) based on a comprehensive assessment model as set out in Ind AS 115 'Revenue from contracts with customers'. The Company identifies contract(s) with a customer and its performance obligations under the contract, determines the transaction price and its allocation to the performance obligations in the contract and recognises revenue only on satisfactory completion of performance obligations. Revenue is measured at fair value of the consideration received or receivable.
(b) Financial Instruments:
(i) Financial Assets: -
Recognition and initial measurement: -
Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially recognised when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument and are measured initially at fair value adjusted for transaction cost.
Subsequent measurement: -
Equity instrument and Mutual Fund: - All equity Instrument and mutual funds within scope of Ind-AS 109 are measured at fair value. Equity instrument and Mutual fund which are held for trading are classified as at fair value through profit & loss (FVTPL). For all other equity instruments, the Company decided to classify them as at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI).
Debt instrument: - A 'debt instrument' is measured at the amortised cost if both the following conditions are met. The assets is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets for collecting contractual cash flows, and contractual terms of the assets give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. After initial measurement, such financial assets are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate (EIR) method.
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 Company has transferred its right to receive cash flow from the asset.
(ii) Financial Liabilities: -
Recognition and initial measurement: -
All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value and transaction cost that is attributable to the acquisition of the financial liabilities is also adjusted. Financial liabilities are classified at amortised cost.
Subsequent measurement: -
Subsequent to initial recognition, these liabilities are measured at Amortised cost using the effective interest rate method.
De-recognition of Financial liabilities: -
Financial liabilities are derecognized when the obligation under the liabilities are discharged or cancelled or expires. Consequently, write back of unsettled credit balances is done on closure of the concerned project or earlier based on the previous experience of Management and actual facts of each case and recognized in other Operating Revenues.
Further when an existing Financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms , or the terms of 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 recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
(iii) Offsetting of Financial Instrument: -
Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the Balance Sheet if there is currently enforceable legal right to offset the recognized amounts and there is an intention to settle on net basis, to realize the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.
(iv) Impairment of Financial Assets
Equity instruments, Debt Instruments and Mutual Fund: -In accordance with Ind-AS 109, the Company applies Expected Credit Loss model for measurement and recognition of impairment loss for financial assets. Expected Credit Loss 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.
Other Financial Assets: - The Company determines whether there has been a significant increase in the credit risk since initial recognition and if credit risk has increased significantly, impairment loss is provided.
(c) Cash & Cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents in the balance sheet comprise of cash at bank and on hand and short term deposits with an original maturity of three months or less, which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. For the purpose of the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and short-term deposits, as defined above, net of outstanding bank overdrafts if they are considered an integral part of the Company's cash management.
(d) Taxation
Tax expense comprises of current tax and deferred tax. Current tax is measured at the amount expected to be paid/recovered from the tax authorities, based on estimated tax liability computed after taking credit for allowances and exemption in accordance with Income Tax Act, 1961.
Current and deferred tax are recognised in profit and loss, except when they relates to items that are recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case, the income taxes are recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, respectively.
Advance taxes and provisions for current income taxes are presented in the statement of financial position after off-setting advance tax paid and income tax provision.
Deferred income tax is recognised using the balance sheet approach. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognised for deductible and taxable temporary differences arising between the tax base of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts.
Deferred income tax are recognised to the extent it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences and the carry forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilized. The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date. Deferred tax asset/liability is measured at the tax rates that are expected to be applied to the period when the asset is realized or the liability is settled.
Deferred tax assets include Minimum Alternative Tax (MAT) paid which is considered as an asset if there is probable evidence that the Company will pay normal income tax after the tax holiday period.
(e) Employee Benefits
(i) Short-term Employee Benefits:-
Liabilities for short-term employee 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 recognized in respect of employee's services up to the end of the reporting period and are measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled.
(ii) Post-Employment Benefits:-
Defined Benefit Plans:-
The liability or asset recognized in the Balance Sheet in respect of defined benefit plans is the present value of the defined benefit obligation at the end of the reporting period less the fair value of plan assets.
The defined benefit obligation is calculated annually by actuaries using the projected unit credit method. The present value of the defined benefit obligation is determined by discounting the estimated future cash outflows by reference to market yields at the end of the reporting period on government bonds that have terms approximating to the terms of the related obligation. The net interest cost is calculated by applying the discount rate to the net balance of the defined benefit obligation and the fair value of plan assets. This cost is included in 'Employee Benefits Expense' in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Re-measurement gains and losses arising from experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions are recognized in the period in which they occur, directly in Other Comprehensive Income. These are included in 'Retained Earnings' in the Statement of Changes in Equity.
(f) Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings/ (loss) per share are calculated by dividing the net profit/ (loss) for the period attributable to equity shareholders by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period. The weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period are adjusted for any bonus shares issued during the period and also after the Balance Sheet date but before the date the standalone Ind AS financial statements are approved by the Board of Directors.
For the purpose of calculating diluted earnings/ (loss) per share, the net profit/ (loss) for the period attributable to equity shareholders and the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period are adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potential equity shares.
The number of equity shares and potentially dilutive equity shares are adjusted for bonus shares as appropriate. The dilutive potential equity shares are adjusted for the proceeds receivable, had
the shares been issued at fair value. Dilutive potential equity shares are deemed converted as of the beginning of the period, unless issued at a later date.
