For the financial assets that are measured at amortized cost, the fair values are not materially different from their carrying amounts, since they are either of short term nature or interest receivable is close to current market rates.

Trade receivables are recognized at their original invoiced amounts which represent their fair values on initial recognition. Trade receivables are considered to be of short duration and are not discounted. The carrying values are equivalent to their fair values. All trade receivables are reviewed and assessed for default on a regular basis. Trade receivables are mainly from customers having high credit quality and strong financials. In determining the allowances for doubtful trade receivables, the Company has used a practical expedient by computing the expected credit loss allowance for trade receivables based on historical credit loss experience and is adjusted for forward looking information. The Company has availed fund based working capital facilities by hypothecation of trade receivables.

Employee benefit plans 23A Defined contribution plans

The Company makes contribution towards provided fund to a defined contribution benefit plan for qualifying employees. Under the plan, the Company is required to contribute a specified percentage of payroll cost to the contribution plan to fund the benefits. The provident fund plan is operated by the Government administrated Employee Provident Fund. Eligible employees receive benefits from the said Provident Fund. Both the employees and the Company make monthly contributions to the Provident Fund plan equal to a specific percentage of the covered employee''s salary. The Company has no obligations other than this to make the specified contribution.

23B (A) Defined benefit plans

The Company earmark liability towards Gratuity and provide for payment under Group Gratuity Scheme administered by the Life Insurance Corporation of India (LIC).

(a) Characteristics of defined benefit plan

The Company has a defined benefit gratuity plan in India (funded). The Company''s defined benefit gratuity plan is a final salary plan for employees, which requires contributions to be made to a separately administered fund. The fund is managed by a trust which is governed by the Board of Trustees. The Board of Trustees are responsible for the administration of the plan assets and for the definition of the investment strategy.

(b) Risks associated with defined benefit plan

Gratuity is a defined benefit plan and Company is exposed to the Following Risks:

Interest rate risk: A fall in the discount rate which is linked to the G. Sec. Rate will increase the present value of the liability requiring higher provision. A fall in the discount rate generally increases the mark to market value of the assets liability requiring higher provision. A fall in the discount rate generally increases the mark to market value of the assets depending on the duration of asset.

Salary Risk: The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated by reference to the future salaries of members. As such, an increase in the salary of the members more than assumed level will increase the plan''s liability.

Investment Risk: The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated using a discount rate which is determined by reference to market yields at the end of the reporting period on government bonds. If the return on plan asset is below this rate, it will create a plan deficit. Currently, for the plan in India, it has a relatively balanced mix of investments in government securities, and other debt instruments.

Asset Liability Matching Risk: The plan faces the ALM risk as to the matching cash flow. Since the plan is invested in lines of Rule 101 of Income Tax Rules, 1962, this generally reduces ALM risk.

Mortality risk: Since the benefits under the plan is not payable for life time and payable till retirement age only, plan does not have any longevity risk.

Concentration Risk: Plan is having a concentration risk as all the assets are invested with the insurance Company and a default will wipe out all the assets. Although probability of this is very less as insurance Companies have to follow regulatory guidelines.

(c) Characteristics of defined benefit plans

During the year, the Company has changed the benefit scheme in line with Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972 by increasing monetary ceiling from 10 lakhs to 20 lakhs, for those employees who are getting benefit as per Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972. Change in liability (if any) due to this scheme change is recognized as past service cost.

(d) A separate trust fund is created to manage the Gratuity plan and the contributions towards the trast fund is done as guided by rule 103 of Income Tax Rules, 1962.

Note :

27.1 As per the guidelines provided under Ind AS 101- first time adoption of Indian Accounting Standards , the Company has decided to change its accounting policy related to hedge accounting. Under Ind AS, the Company will follow Ind AS -21-The effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates, under which restated gain or loss on such foreign currency borrowing will be charged to profit and loss account for the respective period. On transition date i.e. 1 April, 2016, the debit balance in Foreign Currency Hedge Reserve has been transferred to Retained earnings.

The exceptional items includes credit for the year of Rs. 427.51 Lakhs ( Previous year Rs. 1369.05 Lakhs ).

27.2 The Company considers the probability of recovering loans and advances and receivables from the subsidiaries as extremely low, and has therefore provided for Rs. 1785.88 lakhs on account of loans and advances and Rs. 1156.22 lakhs on account of receivables. This is considered as an exceptional item in the standalone financial result.

27.3 In view of its losses and taking into consideration the future profitability of the business prospects of one Subsidiary of the Company. viz Garware Offshore International Singapore Pte Ltd., the Company, as a matter of prudence, has provided for an amount of Rs. 2273.58 lakhs towards the impairment in the value of the investment in equity of the said Subsidiary. This is considered as an exceptional item.

In view of the mounting losses and Net Worth getting eroded in the second subsidiary of the Company viz. Global Offshore Services B.V., the Company carried out the impairment testing of the investment based on the enterprise valuation of the business, (since majority of the vessels are working). As a prudent measure the Management decided to take a provision of 38% of equity invested, equivalent to Rs. 6851.47 lakhs towards the impairment of investment which is considered as an exceptional item.

27.4 The Company carried out the impairment testing of its own vessels based on discounted cash flow mechanism. The EV of the vessels is arrived on the basis of the discounting the projected cash flow. Accordingly, the Company has provided for an amount Rs. 410.24 lakhs towards the impairment in the value of the assets.

29 - Risk management

29A Capital risk management

The Company manages its capital to ensure that it will be able to continue as a going concern while making all efforts to maximize returns to stakeholders.

29B Financial instruments

The significant accounting policies, including the criteria for recognition, the basis of measurement and the basis on which income & expenses are recognized, in respect of each class of financial asset, financial liability and equity instrument are as disclosed in notes to financial statements.

The management considers that the carrying amount of financials assets & financial liabilities recognized in the financial statements are at approximately their fair values.

29C Financial and liquidity risk management objectives

The average payment terms of creditors (trade payables) is 45-60 days. Other financial liabilities viz. employee payments, other payables are payable within one year.

29D Credit risk management

Credit risk refers to the risk that a counter party will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the Company. The major class of financial asset of the Company is trade receivables. For credit exposures to customer, management assesses the credit quality of the customer, taking into account its financial position, past experience and

other factors. As the Company does not hold any collateral, the maximum exposure to credit risk for each class of financial instruments is the carrying amount of that class of financial instruments presented on the statement of financial position. 29E Foreign Currency risk management

Since the majority of the revenues of the Company are denominated in US dollars, there is a translation risk as the Company has to report its financial performance in INR. A significant part of this exposure is hedged by denominating most of its debt servicing obligations in U.S. Dollars and incurring some of its operating and repair costs in foreign currency. However, in view of non payment of some of its debts the natural hedge is now limited.

30 - Segment Information

The Company is engaged in only one type of business i.e. charter of offshore support vessels and there are no separate reportable segment.
