1.9 Revenue Recognition
The Company's revenue recognition policy is aligned to the principles enunciated in Ind AS 115. The company recognises revenue from contracts with customers when it satisfies a performance obligation by transferring a promised good or service to a customer. Revenue towards satisfaction of a performance obligation is measured at the amount of transaction price allocated to the performance obligation. The transaction price of goods sold and services rendered is net of variable consideration on account of various discounts and schemes offered by the Company as part of the contract, if any.
Transaction price is the amount of a consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring good or service to a customer. Payment terms agreed with a customer are as per business practice and there is no financing component involved in the transaction price.
Sale of goods
Revenue from sale of goods is recognised when the control of the same is transferred to the customer and it is probable that the Company will collect the consideration to which it is entitled in exchange of goods.
Rendering of services
Revenue from rendering services is recognised when performance obligation is satisfied and customer obtains the control of the transferred services. Following criteria is required to be met for transfer of control of services:
i) the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits from the services transferred.
ii) the Company has an enforceable right to payment for services transferred.

1.12 Financial Instruments Financial Assets
Initial recognition and measurement
All financial assets and liabilities are initially recognized at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities, which are not at fair value through profit or loss, are adjusted to the fair value on initial recognition.
Subsequent measurement
Financial assets carried at amortised cost (AC)
A financial asset is measured at amortised cost if it is held within a business model whose objective is to hold the asset in order to collect contractual cash flows and the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. For financial assets maturing within one year from the balance sheet date, the carrying amounts are approximate to fair value due to the short maturity of these instruments. T rade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component are measured at transaction price.
Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI)
A financial asset is measured at FVTOCI if it is held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets and the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL)
A financial asset which is not classified in any of the above categories are measured at FVTPL.
Financial liabilities
Initial recognition and measurement
All financial liabilities are recognized at fair value.
Subsequent measurement
Financial liabilities are carried at amortized cost using the effective interest method. For trade and other payables maturing within one year from the balance sheet date, the carrying amounts approximate fair value due to the short maturity of these instruments.
Derecognition of financial instruments
The Company derecognizes a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire or it transfers the financial asset and the transfer qualifies for derecognition under Ind AS 109. A financial liability (or a part of a financial liability) is derecognized from the Company's Balance Sheet when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged or cancelled or expires.
1.13 Impairment of Assets
The carrying value of assets at each balance sheet date are reviewed for Impairment. If any indication exists, the recoverable amount of such assets is estimated and impairment is recognized if the carrying amount of these assets exceeds their recoverable amount.
1.14 Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets
Provisions are recognised when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre-tax rate that reflects, when appropriate, the risks specific to the liability. When discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognized as a finance cost.
In respect of warranty on sale of engines, the estimated cost of warranty is accrued at the time of sale. The estimate for accounting of warranty is periodically reviewed and revisions are made as and when required.
1.15 Use of estimates and judgments
The preparation of the Company's financial statements requires management to make judgement, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of revenue, expenses, assets and liabilities and the accompanying disclosures. Uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets or liabilities affected in future periods.
Depreciation / amortisation and useful lives of property plant and equipment/ intangible assets:
Property, plant and equipment / intangible assets are depreciated / amortised over their estimated useful lives, after taking into account estimated residual value. Management reviews the estimated useful lives and residual values of the assets annually in order to determine the amount of depreciation / amortisation to be recorded during any reporting period. The useful lives and residual values are based on the Company's historical experience with similar assets and take into account anticipated technological changes. The depreciation / amortisation for future periods is revised if there are significant changes from previous estimates.
Fair value measurement of financial instruments
The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year. The Company based its assumptions and estimates on parameters available when the financial statements were prepared. Existing circumstances and assumptions about future developments, however, may change due to market changes or circumstances arising that are beyond the control of the Company. Such changes are reflected in the assumptions when they occur.
Provision for product warranty
The Company recognizes provision for product warranties in respect of its products that it sells. Provisions are discounted, where necessary to its present value based on the best estimate required to settle the obligation at the balance sheet date. These are reviewed at each balance sheet date and adjust to reflect the current best estimates.
1.16 Earnings per share
Basic EPS is calculated by dividing the net profit or loss for the year attributable to equity shareholders by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year. Diluted EPS is computed using the weighted average number of equity and dilutive equity equivalent shares outstanding during the year.
1.17 Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents includes cash in hand and deposits with any qualifying financial institution repayable on demand or maturing within three months from the date of acquisition and which are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value.
1.18 Leases
The Company evaluates if an arrangement qualifies to be a lease as per the requirements of Ind AS 116. The Company uses significant judgement in assessing the lease term (including anticipated renewals) and the applicable discount rate which is generally based on the interest rate specific to the lease being evaluated or if that cannot be easily determined the incremental borrowing rate for similar term is used.
The Company recognises the lease payments associated with these leases as per expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
The Company as a lessee
The Company recognises a right-of-use asset and a lease liability at the lease commencement date. The right-of-use asset is initially measured at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payment made at or before the commencement date, plus any initial direct costs incurred and restoration cost, less any lease incentives received.
The right-of-use assets are subsequently depreciated over the shorter of the asset's useful life and the lease term on a straight-line basis. In addition, the right-of-use asset is reduced by impairment losses, if any.
The lease liability is initially measured at amortised cost at the present value of the future lease payments.
1.19 Accounting Policies not specifically referred above are consistent with generally accepted Accounting practices.
