3.9 Provisions , Contingent Liabilities and Contingent assets
a) Provisions
A provision is recognized if, as a result of a past event,
the Company has a present legal obligation that can be
estimated reliably, and it is probable that an outflow of
economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation.
Provisions (excluding retirement benefits and
compensated leave) are not discounted to its present value
and are determined by the best estimate of the outflow of
economic benefits required to settle the obligation at the
reporting date. These are reviewed at each reporting date
adjusted to reflect the current best estimates.
Warranty obligations included in this type of provisions are
not treated as a separate performance obligation, unless
the customer has the option of contracting the warranty
separately, therefore they are recognized in accordance
with Ind AS 37. These provisions are classified as current
liabilities since they relate to the operating construction
projects cycle, in line with Ind AS 1.
Provision towards guarantee claims in respect of ships
delivered wherever provided/ maintained is based on
technical estimation. For the ships delivered, guarantee
claims are covered by way of insurance policies covering the
guarantee period on case-to-case basis, wherever required
Provisions for anticipated losses are recognized when it
becomes apparent that the total costs expected to fulfi
a contract exceed expected contract revenues. For the
purpose of determining, where appropriate, the amount
of the provision, budgeted contract revenue will include
the forecast revenue that is considered probable, in line
with Ind AS 37 as well as incremental costs. General costs
are not directly attributable to a contract and are therefore
excluded from the Budgeted cost unless they are explicitly
passed on to the counterparty in accordance with the
contract, in line with paragraph 68 of Ind AS 37.
b) Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets
In the normal course of business, contingent liabilities may
arise from litigations and other claims against the Company.
Where the potential liabilities have a low probability of
crystallizing or are very difficult to quantify reliably, the
Company treats them as contingent liabilities. Such liabilities
are disclosed in the notes but are not provided for in the
financial statements. Although there can be no assurance
regarding the final outcome of the legal proceedings
Company does not expect them to have a materially
adverse impact on the financial position or profitability
The Company does not recognize a contingent liability but
discloses its existence in the financial statements.
A contingent asset is a possible asset that arises from past
events and whose existence will be confirmed only by the
occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain
future events not wholly within the control of the entity.
The Company does not recognize a contingent asset but
discloses its existence in the financial statements where an
inflow of economic benefits is probable.
3.10 Revenue Recognition
a) Revenue from Operations
Revenue from contracts with customers are measured
based on the consideration specified in a contract with a
customer (ie., transaction price, which is the fair value of
consideration received or receivable)
At the first instance, revenue recognition process involves
identifying the relevant contracts and technical evaluation
of the performance obligations, contained therein.
A single performance obligation is identified in
shipbuilding and/or ship repair segments for each vessel,
due to the high degree of integration and customization of
the various goods and services forming a combined output
that is transferred to the customer over time.
The company choses the appropriate method of measuring
the progress of the completion at the contract inception
for recognizing revenue over time, and are applied
consistently to similar performance obligations under the
respective segments and/or activities carried out thereon.
Recognition of Revenue for a performance obligation
satisfied over time is made only if the company can
reasonably measure its progress towards complete
satisfaction of the performance obligation.
The performance obligations for the shipbuilding and
Ship repair activities carried out by the company are
satisfied over time rather than at a point in time since
the Company's performance does not create an asset
with an alternative use to the Company ie contractual
restrictions and practical limitations to readily direct that
asset for another use (Even in some cases it will be able to
do so, it can only be done after significant changes and at
significant cost) and it has an enforceable right to payment
for performance completed to date.
Revenue is recognized when the company satisfies
performance obligations by transferring promised goods
and services to the customer over a period of time using
output method based on measurement of physical
performance completed to date in respect of contracts
with customers for ship building and ship repair other than
Indigenous Aircraft Carrier (IAC).
In respect of contract with Indian Navy for construction
of Indigenous Aircraft Carrier, which is partly 'fixed price
basis' and partly 'cost plus basis', the revenue:
• from fixed price portion is recognized using
output method .
• by way of mark up from cost plus part of the contract
for procuring and supply of materials and design
outsourcing is recognized when performance
obligations as per the terms of the contract are
fulfilled upon making payments to the suppliers.
• The cost of materials, value of design outsourcing
and other expenses incurred for the vessel which are
recoverable separately from Navy are charged off
to the statement of Profit and Loss when materials
are consumed/activities are performed/expenses are
incurred and are simultaneously grossed up with the
value of work done and recognized as revenue.
In the case of ship repair contracts involving continuous
multiple years maintenance support/ recurring and routine
services, the company opted for time-elapsed output
method, i.e, measuring the progress based on time elapsed
to reporting date, which is representative of the satisfaction
of performance obligation subject to entitlement of
consideration in exchange of goods and/or services.
Based on the technical assessment considering the latest
available information to the company, measuring the
progress towards complete satisfaction of a performance
obligation in the method adopted will be revised/updated
on an ongoing basis.
During the initial stages of a contract, where the company
may not be able to reasonably measure the outcome of
a performance obligation and the company expects to
recover the costs incurred in satisfying the performance
obligation, revenue will be recognized only to the extent
of the costs incurred until such time that it can reasonably
measure the outcome of the performance obligation.
Contract modifications are accounted when additions,
deletions or changes are approved either to the contract
scope or contract price. The accounting for modifications
of contracts involves assessing whether the services added
to an existing contract are distinct and whether the pricing
is at the stand alone selling price. Where the goods or
services added are not distinct, adjustment to revenue is
made on a cumulative catch up basis. Where the goods or
services added are distinct, and such additional goods or
services are priced at standalone selling prices, the contract
modification is accounted for as a separate contract;
whereas if the modification is not priced at standalone
selling price, the same is accounted as a termination of the
existing contract and creation of a new contract.
The Company generally does not recognize any revenue
from additional work until it has been approved by the
customer. When the scope of work has been approved but
the impact on revenue is yet to be valued, the "variable
consideration" requirement (as explained below) will
apply. This entails recognizing revenue in an amount that
is unlikely to be reversed.
If the consideration promised in a contract includes variable
amounts like discounts, rebates, refunds, credits, price
concessions, liquidated damages or other similar items, the
Company estimates the net amount of consideration to which
the Company is entitled in exchange for transferring the
promised goods or services to a customer and accounts for the
same. The payment terms are based on milestones specified
in the respective contracts with customers. On achieving the
specified milestones these payments are released.
Revenue from Supply of Base & Depot Spares is recognized
based on the satisfaction of performance obligation at a
point in time on proof of receipt of goods from customer.
Unlike revenue recognition, amounts billed to the
customer are based on the various milestones reached
under the contract and on acknowledgement thereof by
the customer by means of a contractual document referred
to as a progress billing certificate. Therefore, the amounts
recognized as revenue for a given year do not necessarily
match those billed to or certified by the customer. For
contracts in which the revenue recognized exceeds the
amount billed or certified, the difference is recognized in
as "Contract Asset" under "Other Current Assets", while for
contracts in which the revenue recognized is lower than
the amount billed or certified, the difference is recognized
as "Contract Liability" under "Other Current Liabilities".
Other Operating Revenue with respect to sale of stock
items ,scrap and consultancy income is recognized at a
point in time when the company satisfies performance
obligations and right to receive the income is established
as per terms of the contract by transferring promised
goods and services to the customer.
Management fee is also recognized over a period of time.
b) Government Grants
Government grants are recognized when there is
reasonable assurance that the Company will comply with
the conditions attaching to them and that the grants
will be received.
Government grants are recognized in Statement of Profit
and Loss on a systematic basis over the periods in which
the Company recognizes as expenses, the related costs for
which the grants are intended to compensate. Where the
Grant relates to an asset value, it is recognized as deferred
income, and amortized over the expected useful life of
the asset. Other grants are recognized in the statement
of Profit & Loss concurrent to the expenses to which such
grants relate/ are intended to cover.
Ship Building Financial Assistance (SBFA) is recognized
over a period of time in proportion to the expenses / cost
incurred and classified under "other operating revenue".
Government grants that are receivable as compensation
for expenses or losses already incurred or for the purpose
of giving immediate financial support to the Company with
no future related costs are recognized in statement of
profit & loss in the period in which they become receivable.
c) Other income
i) Liquidated damages and interest on advances
No income is recognized on (a) interest on advances
given and (b) liquidated damages, where the levies
depend on decisions regarding force majeure
condition of contract. These are accounted for
on completion of contracts and / or when final
decisions are taken.
In the case of contracts entered into for execution of
capital works having long gestation period, where the
extant commercial terms of the contract provides for
provision of extending interest bearing mobilisation
advance to the service provider for mobilising various
resources for timely execution, mobilisation advances
are paid and interest is accounted on accrual basis.
ii) Accounting for insurance claims
(i) Warranty/Builder Risk claims
In the case of guarantee defects covered under
warranty insurance policies or claims under
Insurance Policies taken for ship building and
ship repair works, the insurance claims lodged
are recognized in the financial statements in the
year in which the survey is completed and the
probable amount of settlement is intimated by
the insurance Company.
(ii) Other Insurance Policies
In the case of other Insurance Policies like Asset
Insurance, Transit Insurance, Marine Insurance,
Cash Insurance etc., the claims are recognized
in the the financial statements on settlement of
the claims by way of receipt of the amount from
the Insurance Company.
In the case of Medical insurance, claims are
recognized on due basis, based on the claims
submitted with the insurance company.
Other items of income are accounted as and
when the right to receive such income arises
and it is probable that the economic benefits
will flow to the company and the amount of
income can be measured reliably.
11 Employee benefits
Employee benefits consist of salaries and wages,
contribution to provident fund, superannuation fund,
gratuity fund, towards medical assistance, which are short
term in nature and contribution towards compensated
absences, which is long term in nature.
Post-employment benefit plans
i) Defined Contribution plans
Defined contribution to Employees Pension scheme
for eligible employees is made to National Pension
Scheme (NPS) and are charged as expense as they
fall due. Such benefits are classified as Defined
Contribution Schemes as the Company does not
carry any further obligations, apart from the
contributions made.
The Company makes contributions to the Cochin
Shipyard Employees Mutual Public Welfare Trust
and Employees Medical Assistance Trusts, which
are charged as expense, as and when they fall due.
Such benefits are classified as Defined Contribution
Schemes as the Company does not carry any further
obligations, apart from the contributions made.
Gratuity
The Company provides for gratuity, a defined benefit
retirement plan covering eligible employees. The
fund is managed by the trustees of the Cochin
Shipyard Ltd Group Gratuity Trust .The liability or
asset recognized in the balance sheet in respect
of its defined benefit plan 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 periodically
by actuaries using the projected unit credit method.
The present value of the said obligation is determined
by discounting the estimated future cash outflows,
using market yields of government bonds that have
terms approximating the terms of the related liability.
The interest income / (expense) are calculated
by applying the discount rate to the net defined
benefit liability or asset. The net interest income /
(expense) on the net defined benefit liability or asset
is recognised in the Statement of Profit and loss.
Remeasurement gains and losses arising from
experience adjustments and changes in actuarial
assumptions are recognised in the period in which they
occur, directly in other comprehensive income. They
are included in retained earnings in the Statement of
Changes in Equity and in the Balance Sheet.
Changes in the present value of the defined
benefit obligation resulting from plan amendments
or curtailments are recognised immediately in
Statement of profit and loss as past service cost.
Provident Fund and Pension Scheme
The Company also makes contribution towards
provident fund. The provident fund is administered
by the Trustees of the Cochin Shipyard Limited
Employees Contributory Provident Fund Trust. The
rules of the Company's provident fund administered
by the Trust, require that if the Board of Trustees
are unable to pay interest at the rate declared by
the Government under para 60 of the Employees'
Provident Fund Scheme, 1952, then the deficiency
shall be made good by the Company. The deficiency,
if any assessed by the Company based on actuarial
valuation will be provided for in the accounts.
Other employee benefits
Compensated absences
The Company has a policy on compensated absence
which are both accumulating and non-accumulating
in nature. The expected cost of accumulating
compensated absence is determined by Actuarial
valuation performed by an independent actuary at
each Balance Sheet date using projected unit credit
method on the additional amount expected to be
paid/availed as a result of unused entitlement that
has accumulated at the Balance Sheet date. Expense
on non-accumulating compensated absence is
recognised in the period in which the absences occur.
3.12 Taxes on Income
a) Income tax
Income tax expense comprises current tax expense
and the net change in the deferred tax asset or liability
during the year.
Current and deferred taxes are recognized in Statement of
Profit and Loss, except when they relate to items that are
recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in
equity, in which case, the current and deferred tax are also
recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in
equity, respectively.
The Company has determined that interest and
penalties related to income taxes, including uncertain
tax treatments, do not meet the definition of income
taxes, and therefore accounted for them under Ind AS 37
Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets.
b) Current tax
Current tax is measured at the amount of tax expected
to be payable or receivable on the taxable income or
loss for the year and any adjustment to the tax payable
or receivable in respect of previous years as determined
in accordance with the provisions of the Income Tax Act,
1961. The amount of current tax payable or receivable is
the best estimate of the tax amount expected to be paid
or received that reflects uncertainty related to income
taxes, if any. It is measured using the tax rates enacted or
substantively enacted at the reporting date.
Current tax assets and current tax liabilities are offset,
when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the
recognized amounts and there is an intention to settle the
asset and the liability on a net basis.
Deferred tax is recognized using the Balance Sheet
approach. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognised
for deductible and taxable temporary differences arising
between the tax base of assets and liabilities and their
carrying amount, except when the deferred tax arises
from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a
transaction that is not a business combination and affects
neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss at the time of
the transaction.
Deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that
it is probable that either future taxable profits or reversal
of deferred tax liabilities will be available, against which the
deductible temporary differences, and the carry forward
of unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilised.
The carrying amount of a deferred tax asset shall be
reviewed at the end of each reporting date and reduced
to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient
taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the
deferred income tax asset to be utilised. 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 assets to be recovered.
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 assets and liabilities are measured using
the tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or
substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period
and are expected to apply when the related deferred tax
asset is realised or the deferred tax liability is settled.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are off set when there is
a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets and
liabilities and when the deferred tax balances relate to the
same taxation authority.
3.13 Operating Segments
Operating segments are defined as components of an
enterprise for which discrete financial information is
available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating
decision maker, in deciding how to allocate resources and

1. Revenue is recognized when the company satisfies performance obligations by transferring promised goods and services to
the customer over a period of time using output method based on measurement of physical performance completed to date.
Output method faithfully depicts the Company's performance towards complete satisfaction of the performance obligation and
gives a clear picture of Company's efforts and hence the same is being adopted to depict the performance completed to date
2. Refer Note No 43 on Ind AS 115 "Revenue from Contract with Customers".
3. Out of the Revenue from Operations, H 53,436.82 lakhs (H 23140.03 lakhs in previous year) pertain to revenue from export orders.
4. The Company has considered the lock down period due to COVID 19 & Gol circular dated May 13, 2020, which ever is applicable
to the projects and Kerala Flood natural calamity 2018 as Force Majeure period for computation of Liquidated Damages while
calculating Revenue from operations.
5. The Company is executing shipbuilding contracts with the Andaman & Nicobar (A&N) Administration for the construction of two
1200-passenger vessels (yard nos. SH.0023 and SH.0024). The contractual delivery dates, as extended, have expired for both
vessels as on 29 April 2023 for vessel SH.0023, and 30 October 2023 for vessel SH.0024.
The two vessels are customized and designed for specific operations between Andaman Islands and Main Land. Subsequently
based on a request from the A&N Administration, the Company has abated delivery activity, as the Administration has sought
reallocation of the vessels to other prospective buyers. However, such reallocation would necessitate significant technical
modifications and cost, and the vessels, in their current state, are considered to have no alternative use.
Given that the Company continues to have a valid and enforceable contract with the A&N Administration, and there is no current
mutual termination or novation of the contract, no additional provision for LD has been recognized beyond 29 April 2023 and 30
October 2023, respectively, for SH.0023 and SH.0024 for reason of abated delivery at the request of the buyer. In accordance
with the terms of the contract and based on prudent estimates, the Company has recognized provision for liquidated damages
(LD) up to the aforementioned dates.
The Company continues to monitor developments related to this contract and will review its accounting estimates and
provisioning requirements in subsequent periods as more information becomes available.
The cumulative percentage of completion for the two vessels as on 31.03.2025 is 54.84 percent for SH.0023 and 55.19 percent
for SH.0024. The total liquidated damages for SH.0023 is H. 11814.08 lakhs and for SH.0024 is H. 9756.34 lakhs up to the financial
year 2024-25. The Company has recognized revenue to the tune of H. 16943.66 lakhs towards SH.0023 and H. 17156.89 lakhs
towards SH.0024 upto 31.03.2025 after considering the liquidated damages.
6. The Government of India provides Ship Building Financial Assistance (SBFA) to promote domestic shipbuilding. This scheme is
aimed at compensating the cost incurred in the construction of vessels and not for any operational losses.
In accordance with the SBFA policy guidelines, financial assistance is available only for vessels that are constructed and delivered

8. Disclosure pursuant to CAG audit observation
The company reassesses the measurement progress of its performance obligation under the output method as mandated
by Ind AS 115 at every reporting date. During the year, the company noticed that on application of Ind AS 21, the existing
measurement resulted in variations in faithful representation of revenue in the case of export contracts denominated in foreign
currency. In order to address the same, the Company refined its quantification approach for the said contracts. Revenue is
recognised by applying the physical completion percentage on the total transaction price, which the company is entitled to,
without bifurcating between material and service portions. The effect of change in the quantification measure in the current
year has resulted in increase in revenue from operations of about Rs. 11808.65 lakhs. The Company intends to consistently
adopt this measurement technique in recognising revenue for contracts involving similar performance obligations.

exchange rates. The Company's exposure to the risk of changes in foreign exchange rates relates primarily to the Company's
operating activities (when revenue or expense is denominated in a foreign currency).
Foreign currency risk of the company is managed through a properly documented risk management policy approved by the
board. The Board of directors also reviews the foreign currency exposure of the Company on quarterly basis. The company
