Note 49 : FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT Financial risk management objectives and policies

The Company''s financial risk management is an integral part of how to plan and execute its business strategies. The Company''s financial risk management policy is set by the Audit Committee of the Board of Director.

Market risk is the risk of loss of future earnings, fair values or future cash flows that may result from a change in the price of a financial instrument. The value of a financial instrument may change as a result of changes in the interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, equity prices and other market changes that affect market risk sensitive instruments. Market risk is attributable to all market risk sensitive financial instruments including investments and deposits, foreign currency receivables, payables and loans and borrowings.

The Company manages market risk through a Finance department, which evaluates and exercises independent control over the entire process of market risk management. The Finance department recommend the risk management objectives and policies, which are approved by Senior Management and the Audit Committee. The activities of this department include management of cash resources, implementing hedging strategies for foreign currency exposures like foreign exchange forward contracts, borrowing strategies and ensuring compliance with market risk limits and policies.

Market Risk- Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of the financial instruments will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. In order to optimize the Company''s position with regards to interest income and interest expenses and to manage the interest rate risk, finance department performs a comprehensive corporate interest rate risk management policy by balancing the proportion of fixed rate and floating rate financial instruments in its total portfolio.

According to the Company interest rate risk exposure is only for floating rate borrowings. For floating rate liabilities, the analysis is prepared assuming the amount of the liability outstanding at the end of the reporting period was outstanding for the whole year. A 50 basis point increase or decrease is used when reporting interest rate risk internally to key management personnel and represents management''s assessment of the reasonably possible change in interest rates.

Market Risk- Foreign currency risk.

The company operates internationally and is exposed to foreign exchange risk arising from foreign currency transactions, primarily with respect to USD, EURO, GBP and AUD. Foreign exchange risk arises from future commercial transactions and recognised assets and liabilities denominated in a currency that is not the company''s functional currency (INR). The risk is measured through a forecast of highly probable foreign currency cash flows. The objective of the hedges is to minimise the volatility of the INR cash flows of highly probable forecast transactions.

The company risk management policy is to hedge forecasted foreign currency sales for the subsequent 24 to 60 months. As per the risk management policy, foreign exchange forward contracts are taken to hedge forecasted sales.

The company also imports certain materials and Capital Goods which are denominated in USD, EURO, GBP, CHF,JPY,CNY which exposes the company to foreign currency risk to minimise the risk of imports, the company naturally hedges its imports.

The spot component of forward contracts is determined with reference to relevant spot market exchange rates. The differential between the contracted forward rate and the spot market exchange rate is defined as the forward points.

Credit risk arises from the possibility that the counter party may not be able to settle their obligations as agreed. To manage this, the Company periodically assesses financial reliability of customer and other counter parties, taking into account the financial condition, current economic trends, and analysis of historical bad debts and ageing of financial assets. Individual risk limits are set and periodically reviewed on the basis of such information.

The Company consider the probability of default upon initial recognition of asset and whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk on an ongoing basis through each reporting period. To assess whether there is a significant increase in credit risk the Company compares the risk of default occurring on asset as at the reporting date with the risk of default as at the date of initial recognition. It considers reasonable and supportive forward looking information such as:

• Actual or expected significant adverse changes in business,

• Actual or expected significant changes in the operating results of the counterparty,

• Financial or economic conditions that are expected to cause a significant change to the counterparty''s ability to meet its obligations,

• Significant increase in credit risk on other financial instruments of the same counterparty,

• Significant changes in the value of the collateral supporting the obligation or in the quality of the third-party guarantees or credit enhancements.

Financial assets are written off when there is no reasonable expectations of recovery, such as a debtor failing to engage in a repayment plan with the Company. Where loans or receivables have been written off, the Company continues to engage in enforcement activity to attempt to recover the receivable due. Where recoveries are made, these are recognized as income in the statement of Profit and Loss.

The Company measures the expected credit loss of trade receivables and loan from individual customer based on historical trend, industry practices and the business environment in which the entity operates. Loss rates are based on actual credit loss experience and past trends. Based on the historical data, loss on collection of receivable is not material hence no additional provision considered.

Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and marketable securities and the availability of funding through an adequate amount of committed credit facilities to meet obligations when due and to close out market positions. Due to the dynamic nature of the underlying businesses, Company treasury maintains flexibility in funding by maintaining availability under committed credit lines. Management monitor rolling forecasts of the Company''s liquidity position (comprising the undrawn borrowing facilities below) and cash and cash equivalents on the basis of expected cash flows.

The Company manages market risk through a Finance department, which evaluates and exercises independent control over the entire process of market risk management. The Finance department recommend the risk management objectives and policies, which are approved by Senior Management and the Audit Committee. The activities of this department include management of cash resources, implementing hedging strategies for foreign currency exposures like foreign exchange forward contracts, borrowing strategies and ensuring compliance with market risk limits and policies.

Market Risk- Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of the financial instruments will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. In order to optimize the Company’s position with regards to interest income and interest expenses and to manage the interest rate risk, finance department performs a comprehensive corporate interest rate risk management policy by balancing the proportion of fixed rate and floating rate financial instruments in its total portfolio.

According to the Company interest rate risk exposure is only for floating rate borrowings. For floating rate liabilities, the analysis is prepared assuming the amount of the liability outstanding at the end of the reporting period was outstanding for the whole year. A 50 basis point increase or decrease is used when reporting interest rate risk internally to key management personnel and represents management’s assessment of the reasonably possible change in interest rates.

Market Risk- Foreign currency risk.

The Company operates internationally and is exposed to foreign exchange risk arising from foreign currency transactions, primarily with respect to USD, EURO, GBP and AUD. Foreign exchange risk arises from future commercial transactions and recognised assets and liabilities denominated in a currency that is not the company’s functional currency (INR). The risk is measured through a forecast of highly probable foreign currency cash flows. The objective of the hedges is to minimise the volatility of the INR cash flows of highly probable forecast transactions.

The Company risk management policy is to hedge forecasted foreign currency sales for the subsequent 24 to 60 months. As per the risk management policy, foreign exchange forward contracts are taken to hedge forecasted sales. The Company also imports certain materials and Capital Goods which are denominated in USD, EURO, GBP, CHF, JPY, CNY which exposes the Company to foreign currency risk to minimise the risk of imports, the Company hedges imports upto 12 to 60 months in advance by entering into foreign exchange forward contracts.

The spot component of forward contracts is determined with reference to relevant spot market exchange rates. The differential between the contracted forward rate and the spot market exchange rate is defined as the forward points.

Derivative financial instruments such as foreign exchange forward contracts are used for hedging purposes and not as trading or speculative instruments.

Credit risk

Credit risk arises from the possibility that the counter party may not be able to settle their obligations as agreed. To manage this, the Company periodically assesses financial reliability of customers and other counter parties, taking into account the financial condition, current economic trends, and analysis of historical bad debts and ageing of financial assets. Individual risk limits are set and periodically reviewed on the basis of such information.

The Company considers the probability of default upon initial recognition of asset and whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk on an ongoing basis through each reporting period. To assess whether there is a significant increase in credit risk the Company compares the risk of default occurring on asset as at the reporting date with the risk of default as at the date of initial recognition. It considers reasonable and supportive forward looking information such as:

- Actual or expected significant adverse changes in business,

- Actual or expected significant changes in the operating results of the counterparty,

- Financial or economic conditions that are expected to cause a significant change to the counterparty’s ability to meet its obligations,

- Significant increase in credit risk on other financial instruments of the same counterparty,

- Significant changes in the value of the collateral supporting the obligation or in the quality of the third-party guarantees or credit enhancements.

Financial assets are written off when there is no reasonable expectations of recovery, such as a debtor failing to engage in a repayment plan with the Company. Where loans or receivables have been written off, the Company continues to engage in enforcement activity to attempt to recover the receivable due. Where recoveries are made, these are recognized as income in the statement of Profit and Loss.

The Company measures the expected credit loss of trade receivables and loan from individual customers based on historical trend, industry practices and the business environment in which the entity operates. Loss rates are based on actual credit loss experience and past trends. Based on the historical data, loss on collection of receivable is not material hence no additional provision considered.

Liquidity Risk

Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and marketable securities and the availability of funding through an adequate amount of committed credit facilities to meet obligations when due and to close out market positions. Due to the dynamic nature of the underlying businesses, Company treasury maintains flexibility in funding by maintaining availability under committed credit lines. Management monitors rolling forecasts of the Company’s liquidity position (comprising the undrawn borrowing facilities below) and cash and cash equivalents on the basis of expected cash flows.

(i) Financing arrangements

The Company had access to the following undrawn borrowing facilities at the end of the reporting period:

The bank over draft facilities may be drawn at any time and may be terminated by the bank without notice. Subject to the continuance of satisfactory credit ratings, the bank loan facilities may be drawn at any time in INR. The amount is arrived at based on the Sanctioned Limits by the Banks and the same is subject to change based on the Maximum Permissible Bank Finance (MPBF) and Drawing Power.

In practice, this is unlikely to occur, and changes in some of the assumptions may be correlated. When calculating the sensitivity of the defined benefit obligation to significant actuarial assumptions the same method (present value of the defined benefit obligation calculated with the projected unit credit method at the end of the reporting period) has been applied as when calculating the defined benefit liability recognized in the balance sheet.

The methods and types of assumptions used in preparing the sensitivity analysis did not change compared to the prior period.

Fair value hierarchy

Level 1 :Hierarchy includes financial instruments measured using quoted prices. This includes listed equity instruments and mutual funds that have quoted price. The mutual funds are valued using the closing NAV.

Level 2 : The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market (like forward contract) is determined using valuation techniques which maximize the use of observable market data and rely as little as possible on entity-specific estimates. If all significant inputs required to fair value an instrument are observable, the instrument is included in level 2.

Level 3 : If one or more of the significant inputs is not based on observable market data, the instrument is included in level 3. This is the case for unlisted equity securities etc. included in level 3.

This section explains the judgements and estimates made in determining the fair values of the financial instruments that are (a) recognized and measured at fair value and (b) measured at amortized cost and for which fair values are disclosed in the financial statements. To provide an indication about the reliability of the inputs used in determining fair value, the Company has classified its financial instruments into the three levels prescribed under the accounting standard. An explanation of each level follows underneath the table.

The Company has only one reporting segment of its business i.e. Pharmaceutical, wherein the Company''s strategic steering committee, consisting of the chief executive officer, the chief financial officer and the manager for corporate planning, examines the Company''s performance both from a product and geographic perspective.

The steering committee primarily uses a measure of adjusted earnings before finance cost, tax, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA, see below) to assess the performance of the operating segments. However, the steering committee also receives information about the segments'' revenue and assets on a monthly basis.

(b) Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA excludes discontinued operations and the effects of significant items of income and expenditure which may have an impact on the quality of earnings such as restructuring costs, impairments when the impairment is the result of an isolated, non-recurring event. It also excludes the effects of share-based payments and gains or losses on financial instruments.

Interest income and finance cost are not allocated to segments, as this type of activity is driven by the central treasury function, which manages the cash position of the Company.

(c) Segment revenue

The segment revenue is measured in the same way as in the statement of profit or loss.

Note 8 : First-time adoption of Ind AS Transition to Ind AS

This is the Company''s first financial statements prepared in accordance with Ind AS.

The accounting policies set out in note 1 have been applied in preparing the financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2017, the comparative information presented in these financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2016 and in the preparation of an opening Ind AS balance sheet at April 1, 2015 (the Company''s date of transition). In preparing its opening Ind AS balance sheet, the Company has adjusted the amounts reported previously in financial statements prepared in accordance with the accounting standards notified under Companies (Accounting Standards) Rules, 2006 (as amended) and other relevant provisions of the Act (previous Indian GAAP). An explanation of how the transition from previous IGAAP to Ind AS has affected the Company''s financial position, financial performance and cash flows is set out in the following tables and notes.

A. Exemptions and exceptions availed

Set out below are the applicable Ind AS 101 optional exemptions and mandatory exceptions applied in the transition from previous IGAAP to Ind AS.

A.1 Ind AS optional exemptions

A.1.1 Cumulative translation differences

Ind AS 101 permits cumulative translation gains and losses to be reset to zero at the transition date. This provides relief from determining cumulative currency translation differences in accordance with Ind AS 21 from the date a subsidiary or equity method investee was formed or acquired. The Company elected to reset all cumulative translation gains and losses to zero by transferring it to opening retained earnings at its transition date.

A.1.2 Deemed cost

Ind AS 101 permits a first-time adopter to elect to continue with the carrying value for all of its property, plant and equipment as recognized in the financial statements as at the date of transition to Ind AS, measured as per the previous IGAAP and use that as its deemed cost as at the date of transition after making necessary adjustments for de-commissioning liabilities. This exemption can also be used for intangible assets covered by Ind AS 38 Intangible Assets and investment property covered by Ind AS 40 Investment Properties.

Accordingly, the Company has elected to measure all of its property, plant and equipment, intangible assets and investment property at their previous IGAAP carrying value.

A.1.3 Designation of previously recognized financial instruments

Ind AS 101 allows an entity to designate investments in equity instruments at FVOCI on the basis of the facts and circumstances at the date of transition to Ind AS.

The Company has elected to apply this exemption for its investment in equity investments

A.1.4 Leases

Appendix C to Ind AS 17 requires an entity to assess whether a contract or arrangement contains a lease. In accordance with Ind AS 17, this assessment should be carried out at the inception of the contract or arrangement. Ind AS 101 provides an option to make this assessment on the basis of facts and circumstances existing at the date of transition to Ind AS, except where the effect is expected to be not material.

The Company has elected to apply this exemption for such contracts/arrangements.

A.2.2 Estimates

An entity''s estimates in accordance with Ind ASs at the date of transition to Ind AS shall be consistent with estimates made for the same date in accordance with previous IGAAP (after adjustments to reflect any difference in accounting policies), unless there is objective evidence that those estimates were in error.

Ind AS estimates as at April 1, 2015 are consistent with the estimates as at the same date made in conformity with previous IGAAP. The Company made estimates for following items in accordance with Ind AS at the date of transition as these were not required under previous IGAAP:

Investment in equity instruments carried at FVPL or FVOCI;

Investment in debt instruments carried at FVPL; and

Impairment of financial assets based on expected credit loss model.

B: Reconciliations between previous IGAAP and Ind AS

Ind AS 101 requires an entity to reconcile equity, total comprehensive income and cash flows for prior periods. The following tables represent the reconciliations from previous IGAAP to Ind AS.

C: Notes to first-time adoption:

9: Fair valuation of investments

Under the previous IGAAP, investments in equity instruments and mutual funds were classified as long-term investments or current investments based on the intended holding period and realisability. Long-term investments were carried at cost less provision for other than temporary decline in the value of such investments. Current investments were carried at lower of cost and fair value. Under Ind AS, these investments are required to be measured at fair value. The resulting fair value changes of these investments (other than equity instruments designated as at FVOCI) have been recognized in retained earnings as at the date of transition and subsequently in the profit or loss for the year ended March 31, 2016. This increased the retained earnings by Rs. 47.20 lakhs as at March 31, 2016 (April 1, 2015 - NIL ).

10: Deferred tax

Deferred tax have been recognized on the adjustments made on transition to Ind AS.

11: Borrowings

Ind AS 109 requires transaction costs incurred towards origination of borrowings to be deducted from the carrying amount of borrowings on initial recognition. These costs are recognized in the profit or loss over the tenure of the borrowing as part of the interest expense by applying the effective interest rate method.

Under previous IGAAP, these transaction costs were charged to profit or loss as and when incurred. Accordingly, borrowings as at March 31, 2016 have been reduced by Rs. 56.41 lakhs (April 1, 2015 - Rs. 23.61 lakhs) with a corresponding adjustment to retained earnings. The total equity increased by an equivalent amount. The profit for the year ended March 31, 2016 increased by Rs. 36.29 lakhs as a result of the additional interest expense.

12: Proposed dividend

Under the previous IGAAP, dividends proposed by the board of directors after the balance sheet date but before the approval of the financial statements were considered as adjusting events. Accordingly, provision for proposed dividend including dividend distribution tax was recognized as a liability. Under Ind AS, such dividends are recognized when the same is approved by the shareholders in the general meeting. Accordingly, the liability for proposed dividend including dividend distribution tax of Rs. 221.83 lakhs as at March 31, 2016 (April 1, 2015 -Rs. 1,774.56 lakhs) included under provisions has been reversed with corresponding adjustment to retained earnings. Consequently, the total equity increased by an equivalent amount.

13 : Excise duty

Under the previous IGAAP, revenue from sale of products was presented exclusive of excise duty. Under Ind AS, revenue from sale of goods is presented inclusive of excise duty. The excise duty paid is presented on the face of the statement of profit and loss as part of expenses. This change has resulted in an increase in total revenue and total expenses for the year ended March 31, 2016 by Rs. 1,003.37 lakhs. There is no impact on the total equity and profit.

14 : Cash Discount

Under previous IGAAP, cash discount amounting to Rs. 111.64 lakhs was recognised as part of other expenses which has been adjusted against the revenue under Ind AS during the year ended March 31, 2016. There was no impact on the total equity and profit.

15: Remeasurements of post-employment benefit obligations

Under Ind AS, remeasurements i.e. actuarial gains and losses and the return on plan assets, excluding amounts included in the net interest expense on the net defined benefit liability are recognized in other comprehensive income instead of profit or loss. Under the previous IGAAP, these remeasurements were forming part of the profit or loss for the year. As a result of this change, the profit for the year ended March 31, 2016 reduced by Rs. 19.40 lakhs. There is no impact on the total equity as at March 31, 2016.

16 : Assets classified as held for sale

In the year 2015-16, the Company announced its intention to sale its Tarapur plant and initiated an active program to locate a buyer. Under previous IGAAP, the concept of disposal group held for sale does not exist. Accordingly, assets and liabilities of disposal group have not been presented as held for sale. The Company has disclosed property, plant and equipment held for sale under ''Current assets'' in accordance with AS 10 Accounting for Fixed Assets.

Ind AS 105 Non-current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations requires disposal group to be identified as held for sale if the carrying amount will recovered principally through a sale transaction rather than through continuing use and a sale is considered highly probable. Ind AS 105 lays down detailed guidelines and criteria in this regard. Based on the assessment performed by the management, it has been determined that the plant held at Tarapur should be presented as held for sale under Ind AS. Consequently, the assets of disposal group held for sale have been presented separately from the other assets respectively in the balance sheet. There is no impact on the total equity or profit as a result of this adjustment

Based on above, the following assets and liabilities were classified as held for sale as at March 31, 2016:

17: Retained earnings

Retained earnings as at April 1, 2015 has been adjusted consequent to the above Ind AS transition adjustments.

18: Other comprehensive income

Under Ind AS, all items of income and expense recognized in a period should be included in profit or loss for the period, unless a standard requires or permits otherwise. Items of income and expense that are not recognized in profit or loss but are shown in the statement of profit and loss as ''other comprehensive income'' includes remeasurements of defined benefit plans. The concept of other comprehensive income did not exist under previous IGAAP.

19 : Provision for Sales Return & Cost of Goods Sold

The Company has provided for sales return @ 3.4% on the domestic sales based on average sales returns of the last 3 years. The Company has, therefore, recognized revenue on this transaction with a corresponding provision against revenue for estimated returns. Accordingly, short term provisions as at March 31, 2016 have been increased by Rs. 1,525.99 lakhs (April 1, 2015 - Rs. 1,393.26 lakhs) with a corresponding adjustment to retained earnings. The total equity reduced by an equivalent amount. The profit for the year ended March 31, 2016 reduced by Rs. 132.72 lakhs as a result of sales provision (net).

Cost on goods sold has been created on saleable returns. Accordingly, inventory have been increased by Rs. 149.99 lakhs (April 1, 2015 - Rs. 115.84 lakhs) with a corresponding adjustment to retained earnings. The total equty increased by an equivalent amount. The profit for the year ended March 31, 2016 increased by Rs. 34.15 lakhs.

20 : Mark to Market Gain / (Loss) (MTM)

Mark to Market Gain (Net of loss) have been accounted in books. Accordingly, Other financial assets have been reduced by Rs. 239.74 lakhs (April 1, 2015 - Rs. 436.20 lakhs) with a corresponding adjustment to retained earnings.

21 : Property, Plant & Equipment

Depreciation has been created on lease hold land on the basis of its lease terms. Accordingly, Property, plant & equipment have been reduced by Rs. 143.34 lakhs (April 1, 2015 - Rs. 114.07 lakhs) with a corresponding adjustment to retained earnings. The total equity reduced by an equivalent amount. The profit for the year ended March 31, 2016 reduced by Rs. 29.27 lakhs.
