NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2018

(All amounts in Rupees lakhs, unless otherwise stated)

1. Corporate Information

Indosolar Limited is a public company domiciled and headquartered in India. The Company''s shares are listed on the National Stock Exchange (NSE) and Bombay Stock Exchange {BSE). The Company Is the leading Indian manufacturer of solar photovoltaic cells and its manufacturing facility is located at Greater Noida, Utter Pradesh.

These financial statements were authorised by the Board of Directors for issuing accordance with a resolution passed on May 25,2018.

2. Significant accounting policies

The significant accounting policies applied by The Company in the preparation of its financial statements are listed below. Such accounting policies have been applied consistently to all the periods presented in these financial statements and in preparing the opening Ind AS balance sheet as at April 01, 2016 for the purpose of transition to Ind AS, unless otherwise Indicated.

2.1 Basis of preparation

a) Statement of compliance with Ind AS:

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Indian Accounting Standards (hereinafter referred to as the ''Ind AS'') as notified by Ministry of Corporate Affairs pursuant to section 133 of the Companies Act 2013 and the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 as amended and other relevant provisions of the Act.

For all periods upto and including the year ended 31st March, 2017, the Company prepared its financial statements in accordance with the accounting standards notified under the section 133 of the Companies Act 2013, read together with paragraph 7 of the Companies (Accounts) Rules, 2014 (hereinafter referred to as ''Previous GAAP'') used for its statutory reporting requirement in India immediately before adopting Ind AS.

These financial statements for the year ended 31st March, 2018 are the first financial statements that the Company has prepared under Ind AS. The financial statements for the year ended 31st March, 2017 and the opening Balance Sheet as at 1st April, 2016 (being the ''date of transition to Ind AS'') have been restated in accordance with Ind AS for comparative information. Reconciliations and explanations of the effect of the transition from Previous GAAP to Ind AS on the Company''s Balance Sheet, Statement of Profit and Loss and Statement of Cash Rows are provided in note 3.

b) Basis of measurement

These financial statements are prepared under the historical cost convention except for the following material items those have been measured at fair value as required by relevant Ind AS :

- certain financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value;

- defined benefit plans - plan assets measured at fair value;

Also, the fair values of financial instruments measured at amortised cost are required to be disclosed in the said financial statements.

Historical cost is generally based on the fair value of the consideration given in exchange for assets.

Fair value measurement:

Fair value is the price that would be received on sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (that is, an exit price), ft is a market-based measurement, not an entity-specific measurement. The fair value measurement is based on the presumption that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability takes place either

â¢ In the principal market for the asset or liability, or

â¢ In the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the asset or liability

The principal or the most advantageous market must be accessible by the Company. The fair value of an asset or a liability is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, assuming that market participants act in their economic best interest.

A fair value measurement of a non-financial asset takes into account a market participant''s ability to generate economic benefits by using the asset in its highest and best use or by selling it to another market participant that would use the asset in its highest and best use.

The Company uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data is available to measure fair value, maximising the use of relevant observable inputs and minimising the use of unobserv-able inputs.

Where required/appropriate, external valuers are involved.

All financial assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the financial statements are categorised within the fair value hierarchy established by Ind AS 113, that categorises into three levels, the inputs to valuation tech-

nlques used to measure fair value. These are based on the degree to which the Inputs to the fair value measurements are observable and the significance of the inputs to the fair value measurement in its entirety:

Level 1 Inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) In active markets for Identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date.

Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either dlrectly(l.e. as prices) or lndirectly(i.e. derived from prices).

Level 3 Inputs are unobservable Inputs for the asset or liability.

The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) In active markets for Identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 inputs) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 inputs).

For financial assets and liabilities maturing within one year from the Balance Sheet date and which are not earned at fair value, the carrying amount approximates fair value due to the short maturity of these instruments.

The Company recognises transfers between levels of fair value hierarchy at the end of reporting period during which change has occurred.

c) Current non-current classification:

The Company presents assets and liabilities in the balance sheet based on current/ non-current classification. An asset is treated as current when it is:

â¢ Expected to be realised or intended to be sold or consumed in normal operating cycle

â¢ Held primarily for the purpose of trading

â¢ Expected to be realised within twelve months after the reporting period, or

â¢ Cash or cash equivalent unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelvemonths after the reporting period

All other assets are classified as non-current.

A liability is current when:

â¢ It is expected to be settled in normal operating cycle

â¢ It is held primarily for the purpose of trading

â¢ It is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period, or

â¢ There is no unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period The Company classifies all other liabilities as non-current.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as non-current assets and liabilities.

The operating cycle is the time between the acquisition of assets for processing and their realisation in cash and cash equivalents. Based on the nature of products / services and time between acquisition of assets for processing / rendering of services and their realization in cash and cash equivalents, operating cycle is less than 12 months. However, for the purpose of current/non-current classification of assets & liabilities period of 12 months has been considered as normal operating cycle.

d) Functional and presentation currency

Items included in the financial statements of the Company are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the Company operates (i.e. the "functional currency"). The financial statements are presented in Indian Rupee, the national currency of India, which is the functional currency of the Company.

e) Rounding of amounts:

All amounts disclosed in the financial statements and notes are in Indian Rupees in lakhs rounded off to two decimal places as permitted by Schedule III to the Companies Act, 2013, unless otherwise stated.

2.2 Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with the recognition and measurement principles of the Ind AS requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of the accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues, expenses and the results of operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Such estimates & assumptions are based on management evaluation of relevant facts & circumstances as on date of financial statements. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period; they are recognised in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

2.3 Revenue recognition Sale of goods

Revenue from sale of goods is recognised when all the significant risks and rewards of ownership in the goods are transferred to the buyer as per the terms of the contract, which Is mainly upon delivery and the amount of revenue can be measured reliably. The Company retains no effective control of the goods transferred to a degree usually associated with ownership and no significant uncertainty exists regarding the amount of the consideration that will be derived from the sale of goods. Revenue is measured at fair value of the consideration received or receivable, after deduction of any trade discounts, volume rebates and any taxes or duties collected on behalf of the government which are levied on sales such as goods and services tax, value added tax, etc.

Interest Income:

Interest Income Is recognized on a time proportion basis taking Into account the amount outstanding and the applicable effective interest rate (EIR). EIR is the rate that exactly discounts the estimated future cash payments or receipts over the expected life of a financial liability or a financial asset to their gross carrying amount.

2.4 Property, plant and equipment (PPE)

Property, plant and equipment is stated at acquisition cost net of accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. Subsequent costs are Included In the asset''s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss during the period in which they are incurred.

Cost of an item of property, plant and equipment comprises -

i. its purchase price, including import duties and non -refundable purchase taxes (net of duty/ tax credit availed), after deducting trade discounts and rebates, ii. any costs directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management.

iii. borrowing cost directly attributable to the qualifying asset in accordance with accounting policy on borrowing cost. iv. the costs of dismantling, removing the item and restoring the site on which it is located.

PPE in the course of construction for production, supply or administrative purposes are carried at cost, less any recognised impairment loss. Cost includes direct costs, related pre-operational expenses and for qualifying assets applicable borrowing costs to be capitalised in accordance with the Company''s accounting policy. Administrative, general overheads and other indirect expenditure (including borrowing costs) incurred during the project period which are not directly related to the project nor are incidental thereto, are expensed.

Property, plant and equipment which are not ready for intended use as on the date of Balance Sheet are disclosed as "Capital work-in-progress". They are classified to the appropriate categories of property, plant and equipment when completed and ready for intended use. Depreciation of these assets, on the same basis as other items of PPE, commences when the assets are ready for their intended use.

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 asset. Any gain or loss arising on the disposal or retirement of an item of property, plant and equipment is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

The Company identifies and determines cost of each component/part of the plant and equipment separately, if the component/part has a cost which is significant to the total cost of the plant and equipment and has useful life that is materially different from that of the remaining plant and equipment.

Machinery spares which meets the criteria of PPE is capitalized and depreciated over the useful life of the respective asset.

Deemed cost on transition to Ind AS:

Under the Previous GAAP, all property, plant and equipment were carried at in the Balance Sheet on basis of historical cost, except leasehold land which was carried at revalued amount. The Company has elected to continue with the carrying value of all of its property, plant and equipment recognised as of April 1, 2013 (the transition date) measured as per the previous GAAP (including previous GAAP revaluation of leasehold land as at 31st December, 2008) and use such carrying value as its deemed cost as of the transition date.

Depreciation:

Depreciation on fixed assets (other than freehold land and capital work in progress) is provided on the straight line method, based on their respective estimate of useful lives, as given below. Estimated useful lives of assets are determined based on internal assessment estimated by the management of the Company and supported by technical advice wherever so required. The management believes that useful lives currently used, which is as prescribed under Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013, fairly reflect its estimate of the useful lives and residual values of fixed assets, though these lives in certain cases are different from lives prescribed under Schedule II.

"Based on internal technical evaluation and external advised received, the management believes that the useful lives as considered for arriving at the depreciation rates, best represent the period over which management expect to use these assets. Hence, the useful lives for these assets is different from the useful lives as prescribed under Part C of Schedule II of the Companies Act, 2013.

Assets individually costing Rs. 5000 or less are fully depreciated in the year of acquisition.

Depreciation of an asset begins when it is available for use, i.e., when it is in the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management. Depreciation of an asset ceases at the earlier of the date that the asset is retired from active use and is held for disposal and the date that the asset is derecognised.

Assets held under finance leases are depreciated over their expected useful lives on the same basis as owned assets or, where shorter, the term of the relevant lease.

Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed periodically including at the end of each financial year. Any changes in depreciation method, useful lives and residual values are treated as a change in accounting estimate and applied/adjusted prospectively, if appropriate.

2.5 Intangible assets

Identifiable intangible assets are recognised when the Company controls the asset, it is probable that future economic benefits attributed to the asset will flow to the Company and the cost of the asset can be reliably measured.

At initial recognition, the separately acquired intangible assets with finite useful lives are recognised at cost of acquisition. Following initial recognition, the intangible assets are carried at cost less any accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses, if any.

Intangible assets not ready for the intended use on the date of the balance sheet are disclosed as ''intangible assets under development''.

An intangible asset should be derecognised (eliminated from the balance sheet) on disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use and subsequent disposal.

Gains or losses arising from the retirement or disposal of an intangible asset should be determined as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and should be recognised as income or expense in the statement of profit and loss.

Deemed cost on transition to Ind AS:

Under the Previous GAAP, all Intangible assets were carried at in the Balance Sheet on basis of historical cost. The Company has elected to continue with the carrying value of all of its intangible assets recognised as of April 1, 2016 (the transition date) measured as per the previous GAAP and use such carrying value as its deemed cost as of the transition date.

Amortisation:

Intangible assets are amortised on a straight line basis over the estimated useful lives of respective assets from the date when the asset are available for use, on pro-rata basis. Estimated useful lives by major class of finite-life intangible assets are as follows:

The amortisation period and the amortisation method for finite-life intangible assets is reviewed at each financial year end. Changes in the expected useful life or the expected pattern of consumption of future economic benefits embodied in the asset are considered to modify the amortisation period or method, as appropriate, and are treated as changes in accounting estimates and adjusted prospectively.

2.6 Financial Instruments Financial Assets: Initial recognition and measurement:

Financial assets are recognised when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

On initial recognition, a financial asset is recognised at fair value, except for trade receivables which are initially measured at transaction price. In case of financial assets which are recognised at fair value through profit and loss (FVTPL), Its transaction costs are recognised in the statement of profit and loss. In other cases, the transaction costs are added to or deducted from the fair value of the financial assets.

Financial assets are subsequently classified as measured at

â¢ 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)

â¢ fair value through profit and loss (FVTPL)

â¢ fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI).

Derecognition:

The Company derecognises a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire, or it transfers the contractual rights to receive the cash flows from the asset.

Impairment of Financial Asset:

In accordance with Ind AS 109, the Company applies expected credit loss (ECL) model for measurement and recognition of impairment loss on the financial assets and credit risk exposures.

The Company follows ''simplified approach'' for recognition of impairment loss allowance on trade receivables or contract revenue receivables. Simplified approach does not require the Company to track changes in credit risk. Rather, it recognizes impairment loss allowance based on lifetime ECL at each reporting date, right from its initial recognition. This involves use of provision matrix constructed on the basis of historical credit loss experience and adjusted for forward looking information. The expected credit loss allowance is based on the ageing of the receivables that are due and the rates used in the provision matrix.

ECL is the difference between all contractual cash flows that are due to the group in accordance with the contract and all the cash flows that the entity expects to receive (i.e., all cash shortfalls), discounted at the original EIR. Lifetime ECL are the expected credit losses resulting from all possible default events over the expected life of a financial instrument. The 12-month ECL is a portion of the lifetime ECL which results from default events that are possible within 12 months after the reporting date.

The Company measures the expected credit loss associated with its assets based on historical trend, industry practices and the business environment in which the entity operates or any other appropriate basis. The impairment methodology applied depends on whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk.

ECL impairment loss allowance (or reversal) recognized during the period is recognized as income/ expense in the statement of profit and loss.

Financial Liabilities and equity Instruments:

Classification as debt or equity

Debt and equity instruments issued by the Company are classified as either financial liabilities or as equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangements and the definitions of a financial liability and an equity instrument.

Equity instruments

An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of an entity after deducting all of its liabilities. Equity instruments issued by a company entity are recognised at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs.

Financial liabilities

Initial recognition and measurement:

Financial liabilities are recognised when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

Financial liabilities are classified, at initial recognition, as financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, loans and borrowings, payables, or as derivatives designated as hedging instruments in an effective hedge, as appropriate. All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value and, in the case of loans and borrowings and payables, net of directly attributable transaction costs.

The fair value of a financial instrument at initial recognition is normally the transaction price. If the Company determines that the fair value at initial recognition differs from the transaction price, difference between the fair value at initial recognition and the transaction price shall be recognized as gain or loss unless it qualifies for recognition as an asset or liability.

This normally depends on the relationship between the lender and borrower or the reason for providing the loan. Accordingly, in case of interest-free loan from promoters to the Company, the difference between the loan amount and its fair value Is treated as an equity contribution to the Company.

In accordance with Ind AS 113, the fair value of a financial liability with a demand feature is not less than the amount payable on demand, discounted from the first date that the amount could be required to be paid.

The Company''s financial liabilities include trade and other payables and loans and borrowings including bank overdrafts.

Subsequent measurement

The measurement of financial liabilities depends on their classification, as described below:

Loans and borrowings

After initial recognition, Interest-bearing loans and borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the EIR method. Gains and losses are recognised in profit or loss when the liabilities are derecognised as well as through the EIR amortisation process.

Amortised cost is calculated by taking Into account any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of the EIR. The EIR amortisation is included as finance costs in the statement of profit and loss, unless and to the extent capitalised as part of costs of an asset.

The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial liability and of allocating interest expense over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments (including all fees and points paid or received that form an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and other premiums or discounts) through the expected life of the financial liability, or (where appropriate) a shorter period, to the net carrying amount on initial recognition.

Trade and other payables

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.

Derecognltion

A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires. When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as the derecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability. The difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognised in the statement of profit or loss.

Offsetting of Financial Instruments

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 recognised amount and there is an intention to settle on a net basis, to realise the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.

2.7 Preference shares

a. Convertible preference shares

Convertible preference shares are separated into liability and equity components based on the terms of the contract.

On issuance of the convertible preference shares, the fair value of the liability component is determined using a market rate for an equivalent non-convertible instrument This amount is classified as a financial liability measured at amortised cost (net of transaction costs) until it is extinguished on conversion or redemption.

The remainder of the proceeds is allocated to the conversion option that is recognised and included in equity since conversion option meets Ind AS 32 criteria for fixed to fixed classification. Transaction costs are deducted from equity, net of associated income tax. The carrying amount of the conversion option is not remeasured in subsequent years.

Transaction costs are apportioned between the liability and equity components of the convertible preference shares based on the allocation of proceeds to the liability and equity components when the instruments are initially recognised.

b. Contingent Convertible preference shares

A contingent convertible preference shares is an instrument that is convertible, at the option of the holder, only on the occurrence of a contingent event outside of the control of the holder or the issuer. If the contingent event occurs then the holder has the option, but not the obligation, to convert. If the contingent event does not occur, then the instrument will be settled in cash at maturity/due dates.

The fact that conversion is only contingent does not mean the instrument has no equity component. If, on occurrence of the contingent event, exercise of the conversion option would result in the exchange of a fixed number of the issuer''s own equity instruments for a fixed amount of cash (in the functional currency of the issuing entity), the conversion option would meet the definition of an equity Instrument under IAS 32 and the overall Instrument would be treated as compound instrument.

Whether or not the contingency is within the control of the issuer is an important consideration when classifying financial Instruments with contingent settlement provisions as either financial liabilities or equity.

If a contingent settlement provision Is regarded as outside the control of the issuing entity, the Instrument Is classified as a liability by the issuer. If a contingent settlement provision is regarded as within the control of the reporting entity, the Instrument will be classified as equity, provided that It has no other features requiring Its classification as a liability and that the contingent settlement event is also outside the control of the holder.

The Company has issued 1% Optionally Convertible Cumulative Redeemable Preference shares (OCCRPS) to Union Bank of India under Debt Settlement Agreement pursuant to One Time Settlement with them.ln case of an event of default by the Company in timely repayment/redemption as defined in the said Agreement, the Bank has a right to convert the preference shares Into equity at a Conversion Price, being higher of par value and market value of the equity share In accordance with SEBI formula. Hence the contingent settlement event is Event of default by the Company which is not within the Issuer''s {the Company''s) control and the exercise of the conversion option would result In the exchange of a variable number of the issuer''s own equity instruments.

The Company, the issuer of the instrument does not have the unconditional right to avoid delivering cash or another financial asset {or otherwise to settle It In such a way that It would be a financial liability). Therefore, It Is a financial liability of the Company.

2.8 Impairment of Non-financial assets

The carrying amounts of non-financial assets other than inventories are assessed at each reporting date to ascertain whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, then the asset''s recoverable amount is estimated. An impairment loss is recognised, as an expense in the Statement of Profit and Loss, for the amount by which the asset''s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset''s fair value less cost to sell and value in use. Value in use is ascertained through discounting of the estimated future cash flows using a discount rate that reflects the current market assessments of the time value of money and the risk specific to the assets. For the purpose of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels into cash generating units for which there are separately identifiable cash flows.

Impairment losses recognised in prior years are reversed when there is an indication that the impairment losses recognised no longer exist or have decreased. Such reversals are recognised as an increase in carrying amounts of assets to the extent that it does not exceed the carrying amounts that would have been determined {net of amortization or depreciation) had no impairment loss been recognised in previous years.

2.9 Borrowing costs

Borrowing costs comprises interest expense on borrowings calculated using the effective interest method and exchange differences arising from foreign currency borrowings to the extent that they are regarded as an adjustment to interest costs.

The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial asset or a financial liability and of allocating the interest income or interest expense over the relevant period.

The effective interest rate (EIR) is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments or receipts through the expected life of the financial instrument or, when appropriate, a shorter period to the net carrying amount of the financial asset or financial liability. EIR calculation does not include exchange differences.

Borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset, which are assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use or sale, are included in the cost of those assets. Such borrowing costs are capitalised as part of the cost of the asset when it is probable that they will result in future economic benefits to the entity and the costs can be measured reliably. Other borrowing costs are recognised as an expense in the period in which they are incurred.

The capitalisation of borrowing costs as part of the cost of a qualifying asset commences when expenditure for the asset is being incurred, borrowing costs are being incurred and activities that are necessary to prepare the asset for its intended use or sale are in progress.

Capitalisation of borrowing costs is suspended or ceases when substantially all the activities necessary to prepare the qualifying asset for its intended use or sale are interrupted or completed.

Investment income earned on the temporary investment of specific borrowings pending their expenditure on qualifying assets is deducted from the borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation.

2.10 Foreign currency transactions

The financial statements are presented in Indian Rupees (INR), the functional currency of the Company. Items included in the financial statements of the Company are recorded using the currency of the primary economic environment In which the Company operates (the functional currency'').

Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using exchange rates at the date of the transac-tion. Foreign exchange gains and losses from settlement of these transactions, and from translation of monetary assets and liabilities at the reporting date exchange rates are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign currency and measured at historical cost are translated at the exchange rate prevalent at the date of transaction.

Under Previous GAAP, the Company had opted for paragraph 46A of Accounting Standard for ''Effect of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates'' (AS 11) which provided an alternative accounting treatment whereby exchange differences arising on long term foreign currency monetary items relating to depreciable capital asset can be added to or deducted from the cost of the asset and should be depreciated over the balance life of the asset.

Ind AS 101 Includes an optional exemption that allows a first-time adopter to continue the above accounting treatment in respect of the long-term foreign currency monetary items recognised in the financial statements for the period ending Immediately before the beginning of the first Ind AS financial reporting period as per the previous GAAP. The Company has elected to avail this optional exemption. However, the capitalization of exchange differences is not allowed on any new long term foreign currency monetary item recognized from the first Ind AS financial reporting period.

2.11 Leases

The determination of whether an arrangement is (or contains) a lease is based on the substance of the arrangement at the inception of the lease. The arrangement is, or contains, a lease if fulfillment of the arrangement is dependent on the use of a specific asset or assets and the arrangement conveys a right to use the asset or assets, even if that right is not explicitly specified in an arrangement.

Company as a lessee

A lease is classified at the inception date as a finance lease or an operating lease.

Leases are classified as finance leases whenever the terms of the lease transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the lessee. All other leases are classified as operating leases.

Finance lease:

Assets held under finance leases are initially recognised as assets of the Company at their fair value at the inception of the lease or, if lower, at the present value of the minimum lease payments. The corresponding liability to the lessor is included in the balance sheet as a finance lease obligation.

Lease payments are apportioned between finance expenses and reduction of the lease obligation so as to achieve a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. Finance expenses are recognised immediately in Statement of Profit and Loss, unless they are directly attributable to qualifying assets, in which case they are capitalized in accordance with the Company''s policy on borrowing cost. Contingent rentals are recognised as expenses in the periods in which they are incurred.

A leased asset is depreciated over the useful life of the asset. However, if there is no reasonable certainty that the Company will obtain ownership by the end of the lease term, the asset is depreciated over the shorter of the estimated useful life of the asset and the lease term.

Operating lease:

In respect of assets taken on operating lease, lease rentals are recognized as an expense in the Statement of Profit and Loss on straight line basis over the lease term unless another systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern in which the benefit is derived from the leased asset or the payments to the lessor are structured to increase in the line with expected general inflation to compensate for the lessor''s expected inflationary cost increases.

2.12 Inventories

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value.

Costs incurred in bringing each product to its present location and condition, are accounted for as follows:

â¢ Raw materials, stores and spares: cost includes cost of purchase(viz. the purchase price, import duties and other taxes (other than those subsequently recoverable by the entity from the taxing authorities), and transport, handling and other costs directly attributable to the acquisition and is net of trade discounts, rebates and other similar items) and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. Cost is determined on first in, first out basis.

â¢ Materials and other supplies held for use in the production of inventories are not written down below cost if the finished products in which they will be incorporated are expected to be sold at or above cost.

* Spare parts, which do not meet the definition of property, plant and equipment are classified as inventory.

* Finished goods and work in progress: cost includes cost of direct materials and labour and a proportion of manufacturing overheads based on the normal operating capacity, but excluding borrowing costs. Cost is determined on first in, first out basis.

* Traded goods: cost includes cost of purchase and other costs incurred In bringing the inventories to their presen locatlon and condition. Cost is determined on first in, first out basis.

Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.

Obsolete, slow moving and defective Inventories are identified from time to time and, where necessary, a provision Is made for such inventories.

2.13 Employee benefits

Short- term employee benefits:

All employee benefits payable wholly within twelve months of rendering the service are classified as short-term employee benefits. Benefits such as salaries, wages, social security contributions, short term compensated absences (paid annual leaves) etc. are measured on an undlscounted basis at the amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled and are expensed in the period in which the employee renders the related service.

Post-employment benefits:

I) Defined contribution plan

The defined contribution plan is postemployment benefit plan under which the Company contributes fixed contribution to a government administered fund and will have no obligation to pay further contribution. The Company''s defined contribution plan comprises of Provident Fund, Employee State Insurance Scheme and Labour Welfare Fund. The Company''s contribution to defined contribution plans are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss in the period in which employee renders the related service.

II) Defined benefit plan

The Company''s obligation towards gratuity liability is funded to an approved gratuity fund, which fully covers the said liability under Cash Accumulation Policy of Life Insurance Corporation of India (LIC). The present value of the defined benefit obligations is determined based on actuarial valuation using the projected unit credit method. The rate used to discount defined benefit obligation is determined by reference to market yields at the Balance Sheet date on Indian Government Bonds for the estimated term of obligations.

The amount recognised as ''Employee benefit expenses'' in the Statement of Profit and Loss is the cost of accruing employee benefits promised to employees over the current year and the costs of individual events such as past/future service benefit changes and settlements (such events are recognised immediately in the Statement of Profit and Loss).

The amount of net interest expense calculated by applying the liability discount rate to the net defined benefit liability or asset is charged or credited to ''Finance costs'' in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

Re-measurement of net defined benefit liability/ asset pertaining to gratuity comprise of actuarial gains/ losses (i.e. changes in the present value of the defined benefit obligation resulting from experience adjustments and effects of changes in actuarial assumptions), the return on plan assets (excluding interest) and the effect of the asset ceiling (if any, excluding interest)and is recognised immediately in the balance sheet with a charge or credit recognised in other comprehensive income in the period in which they occur. Re-measurements are not reclassified to profit or loss account in subsequent periods.

Other long-term employee benefit obligations:

The liabilities for earned leave that are not expected to be settled wholly within 12 months are measured as the present value of expected future payments to be made in respect of services provided by employees up to the end of the reporting period using the projected unit credit method. The benefits are discounted using the market yields at the end of the reporting period that have terms approximating to the terms of the related obligation. Remeasuremervtsas a result of experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.Accumulated leave, which is expected to be utilized within the next 12 months, is treated as short term employee benefit.

2.14 Government Grant:

Government grants are recognised only when there is reasonable assurance that the Company will comply with the conditions attaching to them and the grants will be received.

Government grants are recognised in profit or loss on a systematic basis over the periods in which the Company recognises as expenses the related costs for which the grants are intended to compensate.

Accordingly, government grants:

a) related to or used for assets are included in the Balance Sheet as deferred income and recognised as income in profit or loss on a systematic basis over the useful life of the assets.

b) related to an expense item is recognised as income on a systematic basis over the periods that the related costs, for which it Is Intended to compensate, are expensed.

In the unlikely event that a grant previously recognised Is ultimately not received, it Is treated as a change In estimate and the amount cumulatively recognised is expensed in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

2.15 Taxation

Tax expense comprises of current and deferred tax and includes any adjustments related to past periods in current and/ or deferred tax adjustments that may become necessary due to certain developments or reviews during the relevant period.

Current Income tax:

Tax on income for the current period is determined on the basis of taxable income (or on the basis of book profits wherever minimum alternate tax Is applicable) and tax credits computed in accordance with the provisions of the Income Tax Act 1961, and based on the expected outcome of assessments/appeals.

Current income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted or substantively enacted, at the reporting date in the countries where the company operates and generates taxable income.

Current income tax relating to items recognised, either in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, is also recognized in other comprehensive income or in equity, as appropriate and not in the Statement of Profit and Loss. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in the tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulations are subject to interpretation and establishes provisions where appropriate.

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:

Deferred tax is provided using the liability method on temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities

and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes at the reporting date.

Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences, except:

â¢ When the deferred tax liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss.

â¢ In respect of taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates and interests in joint arrangements, when the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences can be controlled and it is probable that the temporary differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future.

Deferred tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, the cany forward of unused tax credits and any unused tax losses & unabsorbed tax depreciation. Deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that 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 utilised, except:

â¢ When the deferred tax asset relating to the deductible temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss.

â¢ In respect of deductible temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates and interests in joint arrangements, deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that the temporary differences will reverse in the foreseeable future and taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilized.

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at 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 tax asset to be utilised. Unrecognised deferred tax assets are re-assessed at each reporting date and are recognised to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profits will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the year when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.

Deferred tax relating to items recognised outside profit or loss is recognised outside profit or loss. Deferred tax items are recognised in correlation to the underlying transaction either in OCI or directly in equity.

Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset if a legally enforceable right exists to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and the deferred taxes relate to the same taxable entity and the same taxation authority.

Deferred Tax Assets Include Minimum Alternative Tax (MAT) paid In accordance with the tax laws in India, which Is likely to give future economic benefits in the form of availability of set off against future income tax liability. Accordingly, MAT is recognised as deferred tax assets In the Balance sheet when the asset can be measured reliably and it Is probable that the future economic benefit associated with the asset will be realised.

2.16 Provisions and contingencies

Provisions:

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. Provisions are measured at the best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the present obligation at the Balance Sheet date.

If the effect of the time value of money Is material, provisions are discounted to reflect its present value using a current pretax rate that reflects the current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the obligation. When discounting is used, the Increase In the provision due to the passage of time is recognised as a finance cost.

Where the Company expects some or all of a provision to be reimbursed, the reimbursement Is recognised as a separate asset but only when the reimbursement is virtually certain. The expense relating to any provision is presented in the income statement net of any reimbursement.

Contingencies: Contingent liabilities A contingent liability Is:

â¢ a possible obligation arising from past events, the existence of which will be confirmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of the Company, or

â¢ a present obligation that arises from past events but is not recognised because :

- it is not probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation; or

- the amount of the obligation cannot be measured with sufficient reliability.

Contingent liabilities are not recognized but disclosed unless the contingency is remote.

Contingent assets

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 Company.

2.21 Earnings per share

The Basic Earnings per equity share (''EPS'') is computed by dividing the net profit or loss after tax before other comprehensive income for the year attributable to the equity shareholders of the Company by weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year. Ordinary shares that will be issued upon the conversion of a mandatorily convertible instrument are included in the calculation of basic earnings per share from the date the contract is entered into. Contingently issuable shares are treated as outstanding and are included in the calculation of basic earnings per share only from the date when all necessary conditions are satisfied (i.e. the events have occurred).

Diluted earnings per equity share are computed by dividing the net profit or loss before OCI attributable to equity holders of the Company by the weighted average number of equity shares considered tor deriving basic earnings per equity share and also the weighted average number of equity shares that could have been issued upon conversion of all dilutive potential equity shares (including options and warrants).

As the said event has not happened till the end of the reporting period, exercise or conversion is not assumed tor the purpose of calculating diluted earnings per share and accordingly potential ordinary shares are not included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share. Anti-dilutive effects are ignored.

2.22 Events after Reporting date

Where events occurring after the Balance Sheet date provide evidence of conditions that existed at the end of the reporting period, the impact of such events is adjusted within the financial statements. Where the events are indicative of conditions that arose after the reporting period, the amounts are not adjusted, but are disclosed if those non-adjusting events are material.

Indosolar Limited is a public company domiciled and headquartered in India. The Companyâs shares are listed on the National Stock Exchange (NSE) and Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE). The Company is the leading Indian manufacturer of solar photovoltaic cells and its manufacturing facility is located at Greater Noida, Uttar Pradesh.

1. Significant accounting policies

The accounting policies set out below have been applied consistently to the periods presented in these financial statements.

i. Basis of preparation

These financial statements are prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) under the historical cost convention on the accrual basis except for certain financial instruments which are measured at fair values. GAAP comprises mandatory accounting standards as prescribed under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 (âthe Actâ) read with Rule 7 of the Companies (Accounts) Rules, 2014, the provisions of the Act (to the extent notified) and guidelines issued by the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI). Accounting policies have been consistently applied except where a newly issued accounting standard is initially adopted or are vision to an existing accounting standard requires a change in the accounting policy hitherto in use. The financial statements are presented in Indian rupees rounded off to the nearest lakhs.

The Company has continued to incur losses in the current year ended 31 March 2016 resulting in further erosion of its net worth which had already been fully eroded during the year ended 31 March 2014. Accordingly the Company had, during the year ended 31 March 2015, made reference to Board of Industrial and Financial Reconstruction (BIFR) vide its letter dated 25 November 2014 in accordance with the requirements of Sick Industrial Companies Act, 1985.

The Company had received a letter from BIFR stating that the product âSOLAR PHOTOVOLTAIC CELLâ manufactured by the Company does not feature in the first schedule of Industries Development and Regulation Act, 1951. However, the Company had submitted that such product is covered under the heading 5(1) of the first schedule of Industries Development and Regulation Act, 1951. No further communication has been received from BIFR till date.

As on 31 March 2016, the current liabilities exceed the current assets by Rs 79,472.87 lakhs, including an amount of Rs. 59,444.59 lakhs which is payable as per the terms of the first Corporate Debt Restructuring (CDR) package. Further, an amount of Rs. 10,07750 lakhs will become payable by 31 March 2017. The above mentioned current liabilities includes, outstanding liabilities for purchase of raw material and capital goods amounting to Rs. 6,452.78 lakhs. Due to continued liquidity issues, the Company had approached the bankers for a second Corporate Debt Restructuring Package on the basis of a techno economic viability study conducted by an external expert. During the year ended 31 March 2016, consortium bankers in their joint lenders meeting has decided that banksâ are not considering second restructuring proposal as of now and exploring the possibility of sale to Asset Restructuring Company and/or to invoke change in management.

The Solar industry has witnessed turmoil owing to significant downturn in the global market due to structural over supply situation. However, the domestic market as a result of several government initiatives to enhance solar power capacity in India has been showing an upturn off late. The Company which had not been able to utilize its capacity for significant part of last four years, had recommenced the commercial production from August 2015. Based on orders in hand of approximately 71 MW as on 31 March 2016, the Company expects to operate at the significant level of capacity at least till July 2016.

During the current year, World Trade Organization (WTO) issued the ruling against Indiaâs Solar Policy to promote domestically manufactured power equipment. Government of India has filed an appeal against the said ruling. However, in managementâs view, the ruling of WTO is not applicable in case of government purchases. Accordingly, the government is issuing tenders through Public Sector Undertakings to support domestic manufacturers and till date has issued tenders for supply of 2,557 MW to be installed within a period of one year. The management believes that in light of these tenders, the Company will be able to utilize significant capacity for the year ending 31 March 2017.

ii. Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and reported amounts of assets and liabilities, incomes and expenses and disclosure of contingent liabilities on the date of the financial statements. Examples of estimates among others includes provision for doubtful debts, provision of future obligations under employee retirement benefit plans, estimated useful life of fixed assets, provision for warranties and sales returns, customer claims, provision for price change and estimates of future cash flow for impairment testing. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Any revision to accounting estimates is recognized in accordance with the requirements of the respective Accounting Standard, generally prospectively, in current year and future periods.

iii. Current and non-current classification

All assets and liabilities are classified into current and non-current.

Assets

An asset is classified as current when it satisfies any of the following criteria:

a. it is expected to be realized in, or is intended for sale or consumption in, the Companyâs normal operating cycle;

b. it is held primarily for the purpose of being traded;

c. it is expected to be realized within 12 months after the reporting date; or

d. it is cash or cash equivalent unless it is restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least 12 months after the reporting date.

Current assets include the current portion of non-current financial assets.

All other assets are classified as non-current.

Liabilities

A liability is classified as current when it satisfies any of the following criteria:

(a) it is expected to be settled in the Companyâs normal operating cycle;

(b) it is held primarily for the purpose of being traded;

(d) the Company does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting date. Terms of a liability that could, at the option of the counterparty, result in its settlement by the issue of equity instruments do not affect its classification.

Current liabilities include current portion of non-current financial liabilities.

All other liabilities are classified as non-current.

Operating cycle

Operating cycle is the time between the acquisition of assets for processing and their realization in cash or cash equivalents.

iv. Revenue recognition

Sale of goods

Revenue from sale of goods in the course of ordinary activities is recognized when property in goods or all significant risks and rewards of their ownership are transferred to the customers and no significant uncertainty exist regarding the amount of the consideration that will be derived from the sale of the goods and regarding its collection. The amount recognized as revenue is exclusive of duties, taxes and is net of returns and discounts.

Interest income

Interest income is recognized on a time proportion basis taking into account the amount outstanding and the interest rate applicable.

v. Fixed assets

Tangible fixed assets

Tangible fixed assets are carried at cost of acquisition or construction less accumulated depreciation and/ or accumulated impairment loss, if any. The cost of an item of tangible fixed assets comprises its purchase price, including import duties and other non-refundable taxes or levies and any directly attributable cost of bringing the asset to its working condition for its intended use; any trade discounts and rebates are deducted in arriving at purchase price.

Exchange differences (favorable as well as unfavorable) arising in respect of transaction/settlement of long term foreign currency borrowing attributable to the acquisition of depreciable asset are also included in the cost of the asset.

Cost of assets not ready for use and administration and other general overhead expenses that are directly attributable to the construction activity of specific asset until commissioning of such assets, are disclosed as Capital work in progress.

Intangible fixed assets

Intangible assets that are acquired by the Company are measured initially at cost. After initial recognition, an intangible asset is carried at its cost less accumulate amortization and any accumulated impairment loss.

Subsequent expenditure is capitalized only when it increases the future economic benefits from the specific assets to which it relates.

vi. Depreciation Tangible fixed assets

Depreciation on tangible fixed asset is provided on straight-line method over the estimated useful life of each asset as determined by the management.

Pursuant to the Act, the Company has aligned the depreciation rates based on the useful life as specified Part C of Schedule-II to the Act, except for certain items of plant and machinery which have been depreciated over the life of 25 years and for machinery spares which have been depreciated over life of pro rata basis where the management estimate of useful is higher/shorter than the envisaged in the aforesaid schedule. Based on internal technical evaluation and external advised received, the management believes that the useful lives as considered for arriving at the depreciation rates, best represent the period over which management expect to use these assets.

Depreciation on addition to fixed assets is provided on pro rata basis from the date on which is ready for use. Depreciation on sale/deduction from fixed assets is provided for up to the date of sale/deduction, as the case may be.

Leasehold land is amortized on straight line basis over the period of lease i.e. 90 years.

Intangible fixed assets

Intangible assets representing computer software are depreciated over a period of 5 years on a pro rata basis.

vii. Impairment

The carrying amounts of the Companyâs assets are reviewed at each reporting date in accordance with Accounting Standard-28 âImpairment of assetsâ to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, the assetâs recoverable amount is estimated as higher of its net selling price and value in use. An impairment loss is recognized whenever the carrying amount of an asset or its cash generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount. Impairment losses are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss. An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the assetâs carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined net of depreciation or amortization, had no impairment loss been recognized.

viii. Borrowing costs

Borrowing costs are interest and other costs (including exchange differences arising from foreign currency borrowings to the extent that they are regarded as an adjustment to interest costs) incurred by the Company in connection with the borrowing of funds. Borrowing costs directly attributable to acquisition or construction of those fixed assets which necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use are capitalized. Other borrowing costs are recognized as expense in the period in which they are incurred. In determining the amount of borrowing costs eligible for capitalization during a period, any income earned on the temporary investment of those borrowings is deducted from the borrowing costs incurred.

Expenses incurred on commitment charges and other ancillary costs related to availing of loan facility or loan commitment from banks are amortized over the period of loan commencing from the first drawdown of such loans. Until such commencement of amortization, they are disclosed in the financial statements as unamortized borrowing cost.

ix. Operating leases

Lease rental in respect of assets taken on operating lease are charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss on straight-line basis over the lease term.

x. Inventories

Inventories which comprise raw materials, finished goods, stock-in-trade and stores and spares are carried at the lower of cost and net realizable value.

Cost of inventories comprises of all cost of purchase including duties and taxes other than those subsequently recovered by the enterprise from the tax authorities, freight inward, cost of conversion and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition.

Cost is determined on the basis of first-in first-out method. In the case of manufactured inventories fixed production overheads are allocated on the basis of normal capacity of production facilities. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated cost of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.

Raw materials and other supplies held for use in the production of finished products are not written down below cost except in cases where material prices have declined and it is estimated that the cost of finished products will exceed their net realizable value.

The comparison of cost and net realizable value is made on an item-by-item basis.

Obsolete and slow moving inventories are identified at the time of physical verification of inventories and, where necessary, a provision for obsolescence is recognized or the same is written-off.

Consumables stores are charged to the Statement of profit and loss at the point of purchase.

Stock of scrap and waste is valued at estimated realizable value. Machinery spares that are of regular use are charged to Statement of Profit and Loss as and when consumed.

xi. Foreign currency transactions

Foreign exchange transactions are recorded at the exchange rates prevailing at the date of transaction. Realized gains and losses on foreign exchange transactions during the year are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss. Monetary assets and monetary liabilities that are determined in foreign currency are translated at the exchange rate prevalent at the date of Balance Sheet. The resulting difference is recorded in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

In accordance with Accounting Standard 11, âAccounting for the effects of changes in foreign exchange rates, exchange differences arising in respect of long term foreign currency monetary items used for acquisition of depreciable capital asset, are added to or deducted from the cost of asset, till it is capitalized, and are depreciated over the balance life of asset.

In respect of forward exchange contracts taken by the Company for hedging purposes, the premium or discount on such contracts is amortized as income or expense over the life of the contract. Any profit or loss arising on the cancellation or renewal of forward contracts is recognized as an income or expense for the period. The exchange difference on such a forward exchange contract is calculated as the difference between-

(a) the foreign currency amount of the contract translated at the exchange rate at the Balance Sheet date, or the settlement date where the transaction is settled during the reporting period; and

(b) the same foreign currency amount translated at the later of the date of inception of the forward exchange contract and the last reporting date. Such exchange differences are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss in the reporting period in which the exchange rates change.

xii. Employee benefits

- Defined benefit plans

The Companyâs gratuity benefit scheme is a defined benefit plan. The present value of obligation under such defined benefit plan is determined based on actuarial valuation carried at the yearend using the Projected Unit Credit Method, which recognizes each period of service as giving rise to additional unit of employee benefit entitlement and measures each unit separately to build up the final obligation. The obligation is measured at the present value of the estimated future cash flows. The discount rates used for determining the present value of obligation under defined benefit plans, is based on the market yields on Government securities as at the balance sheet date, having maturity periods approximating to the terms of related obligations. Actuarial gains and losses are recognized immediately in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

- Other long term employee benefit:

Income tax expenses comprise current tax (i.e. the amount of tax for the period determined in accordance with the Income-tax Act, 1961) and deferred tax charge or credit (reflecting the tax effects of the timing differences between the accounting income and taxable income for the period). The deferred tax charge or credit and the corresponding deferred tax liabilities or assets are recognized using the tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the Balance Sheet date. Deferred tax assets are recognized only to the extent there is reasonable certainty that the assets can be realized in the future, however, where there is unabsorbed depreciation or carry forward loss under taxation laws, deferred tax assets are recognized only if there is virtual certainty of realization of such assets. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each Balance Sheet date and written down or written up to reflect the amount that is reasonably/ virtually certain (as the case may be) to be realized.

Deferred tax consequences of timing differences that originate in the tax holiday period and reverse after the tax holiday period are recognized in the period in which the timing differences originate.

xiv. Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing the net profit or loss for the year attributable to equity shareholders by the number of equity shares outstanding at the end of the year. For the purpose of calculating diluted earnings per share, net profit or loss for the year attributable to equity shareholders and the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year are adjusted for the effect of all dilutive potential equity shares except where the results would be anti-dilutive.

xv. Provisions and contingencies

The Company recognizes a provision when there is a present obligation as a result of a past event that probably requires an outflow of resources and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. A disclosure for a contingent liability is made when there is a possible but not probable obligation or a present obligation that may, but probably will not, entail an outflow of resources. When there is an obligation in respect of which the likelihood of outflow of resources is remote, no provision or disclosure is made.

xvi. Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash at bank and in hand and fixed deposits with banks with an original maturity of three months or less.

Corporate Information

Indosolar Limited is the leading Indian manufacturer of solar photovoltaic cells. The Company's manufacturing facility is located at Greater Noida, Uttar Pradesh.

i. Basis of preparation

These financial statements have been prepared and presented on a going concern basis, under the historical cost convention on an accrual basis of accounting and comply with the Indian Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) and comply with the accounting standards, as prescribed by the Section133 of the Companies Act, 2013 ('Act') read with Rule 7 of the Companies (Accounts) Rules, 2014, other pronouncements of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India and the relevant provisions of the Companies Act, 2013 and guidelines issued by the Securities and Exchange Board of India to the extent applicable, as adopted consistently by the Company. Accounting policies have been consistently applied except where a newly issued accounting standard is initially adopted or a revision to an existing accounting standard requires a change in the accounting policy hitherto in use. The financial statements are presented in Indian rupees rounded off to the nearest lakhs.

The Company has made a profit in the last quarter though on a full year basis company has made a loss resulting in full erosion of its net worth as at 31 March 2015. During the previous year, on erosion of more than 50% of peak net worth, the Company made reference to BIFR (Board of Industrial and Financial Reconstruction) on 22 November 2013 in accordance with the requirements of Sick Industrial Companies Act, 1985. The Solar industry witnessed turmoil owing to significant downturn in the global market due to structural over supply situation resulting in a significant reduction in prices of PV cells. However, the domestic market as a result of several government initiatives to enhance solar power capacity in India has been showing an upturn off late. The Company which had not been able to utilize its capacity for a significant part of the last two years has recently won orders aggregating to 132.65 MW for an aggregate consideration of Rs. 37,500 lakhs, as a result of which the plant has recommenced commercial production and utilised full capacity in the current year ending 31 March 2015. Due to the prevailing conditions, the actual net cash inflows in the year ended 31 March 2015 and year ended 31 March 2014 have been significantly lower than the projections for the same period incorporated in the first CDR package. Accordingly, the cash flow projections approved as part of the first CDR package continues to be unreliable and future cash flows in the light of prevailing conditions are not determinable. Due to continued liquidity issues, the Company had approached the bankers for a second Corporate Debt Restructuring Package and the same is under active consideration with all consortium member banks.

As at 31 March 2015, the networth is fully eroded. On an overall basis as on 31 Mach 2015, the short term liabilities exceed the short term assets by Rs 55,464.27 lakhs, including an amount of INR 26,522.78 lakhs, became payable as per the terms of the first Corporate Debt Restructuring package and further an amount of INR21,210.94 lakhs will become repayable by 31 March 2016. The above includes, outstanding foreign currency liabilities for purchase of raw material and capital goods aggregating to Rs. 3,866.32 lakhs which are outstanding for a period of more than 3 years as at 31 March 2015. Further as explained in Note 35, the Company has not met its NFE obligations 5 years after commencement of business nor has it been able to set up Line C within the stipulated time permitted under Custom regulations in respect of duty free import of capital goods.

During the previous year, there have been some key policy announcements in the guidelines issued under the 'Jawaharlal Nehru National Solar Mission (JNNSM), Phase-II, Batch-I' that provided for bidding with domestic content requirement (both PV/ thin film based cells and modules must be manufactured in India). Certain Public Sector Units (PSU) have also announced solar installation plans with domestic content requirement. The guidelines issued under JNNSM provide that such projects shall be incentivised by way of 'Viability Gap Funding' and the extent of funding shall be determined basis the project cost of setting up of such projects. The impact of these policy decisions in terms of pricing and orders placed on the Company shall be known only in the next few quarters.

On the regulatory side, the Anti Dumping Duty application filed by Solar Manufacturers Association of India dated 18th January 2012, has been withdrawn by the association in view of the government's assurance of its intention to support domestic industry and meet its ambitious targets of solar installation.

Considering the domestic content requirements as put out in the guidelines and other expression of interests issued by certain PSUs, procurement of recent orders and resumption of fully capacity production since the previous quarter and a techno economic viability conducted by an external expert which forms the basis of the application for seeking a second Corporate Debt Restructuring package, management believes that there is no impairment in respect of the carrying value of its fixed assets including capital work in progress as at 31 March 2015 and that it is appropriate to prepare the accounts on a going concern basis. The issue relating to the Company's eligibility for certain capital incentives is currently under litigation and the outcome is not known at present.

ii. Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities, at the end of the reporting period and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Examples of estimates amongst others, includes provisions of future obligations under employee benefit plans, the useful lives of fixed assets, provision for warranties and sales returns, customer claims, provision for price changes and impairment of assets. Actual result could differ from these estimates. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Any revision to accounting estimates is recognized prospectively in the current and future periods.

iii. Current and non-current classification

All assets and liabilities are classified into current and non-current.

Assets

An asset is classified as current when it satisfies any of the following criteria:

(a) it is expected to be realised in, or is intended for sale or consumption in, the Company's normal operating cycle;

(b) it is held primarily for the purpose of being traded;

(c) it is expected to be realised within 12 months after the reporting date; or

(d) it is cash or cash equivalent unless it is restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least 12 months after the reporting date.

Current assets include the current portion of non-current financial assets.

All other assets are classified as non-current.

Liabilities

A liability is classified as current when it satisfies any of the following criteria:

(a) it is expected to be settled in the Company's normal operating cycle;

(b) it is held primarily for the purpose of being traded;

(c) it is due to be settled within 12 months after the reporting date; or

(d) the Company does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting date. Terms of a liability that could, at the option of the counterparty, result in its settlement by the issue of equity instruments do not affect its classification.

Current liabilities include current portion of non-current financial liabilities.

All other liabilities are classified as non-current.

Operating cycle

Operating cycle is the time between the acquisition of assets for processing and their realisation in cash or cash equivalents. The company's normal operating cycle is 12 months.

iv. Revenue recognition

Sale of goods

Revenue from sale of goods is recognised when significant risks and rewards of ownership in the goods are transferred to the customers. The amount recognised as revenue is exclusive of duties, taxes and is net of returns and discounts.

Interest income

Interest income is recognised using the time proportionate method, based on the applicable interest rates.

v. Inventories

Raw materials and finished goods are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value. The cost of purchase consists of the purchase price including duties and taxes other than those subsequently recoverable by the enterprise from the taxing authorities, freight inwards and other expenditure directly attributable for its acquisition.

Cost is determined on the basis of first-in first-out method. In respect of finished goods, cost includes appropriate share of manufacturing overheads, wherever applicable.

Obsolete and slow moving inventories are identified at the time of physical verification of inventories and, where necessary, a provision for obsolescence is recognised or the same is written-off.

Consumable stores are charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss at the point of purchase.

Stock of scrap and waste is valued at estimated realisable value. Machinery spares that are of regular use are charged to Statement of Profit and Loss as and when consumed.

vi. Fixed assets

Fixed assets including machinery spares are stated at cost of acquisition or construction less accumulated depreciation. Cost of acquisition is inclusive of freight, duties, taxes and other incidental costs related to acquisition and installation. In respect of fixed assets constructed, costs comprises cost of construction that relate directly to the specific asset and administration and other general overhead expenses that are directly attributable to the construction activity and can be allocated to the specific asset.

Exchange differences (favorable as well as unfavorable) arising in respect of transaction/settlement of long term foreign currency borrowing attributable to the acquisition of depreciable asset are also included in the cost of the asset.

Cost of assets not ready for use and administration and other general overhead expenses that are directly attributable to the construction activity of specific asset until commissioning of such assets, are disclosed as Capital work in progress.

vii. Depreciation

Tangible assets

Depreciation on fixed assets is provided using the straight line method as per the estimated useful lives of the fixed assets estimated by the management.

Pursuant to Companies Act, 2013 ('the Act') being effective from 1 April 2014, the Company has aligned the depreciation rates based on the useful lives as specified in Part 'C' of Schedule II to the Act, except for certain items of Plant and machinery which has been depreciated over life of twenty five years and for Machinery spares which have been depreciated over life of five year on pro rata basis where the management estimate of useful life is higher/ shorter than that envisaged in the aforesaid schedule. Based on internal technical evaluation and external advice received, the management believes that the useful lives as considered for arriving at depreciation rates, best represent the period over which management expects to use these assets.

Depreciation on addition to fixed assets is provided on pro-rata basis from the first day of month when the assets are put to use. Depreciation on sale/deduction from fixed assets is provided for up to the date of sale, deduction as the case may be.

Intangible assets

The intangible assets are amortized over a period of five years, which in the management's view represents the economic useful life. Amortization expense is charged on a pro-rata basis for assets purchased during the year. The appropriateness of the amortization period and the amortization method is reviewed at each financial year-end.

viii. Impairment

The carrying amounts of the Company's assets are reviewed at each reporting date in accordance with Accounting Standard - 28 on ' Impairment of assets' to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, the asset's recoverable amount is estimated as higher of its net selling price and value in use. An impairment loss is recognized whenever the carrying amount of an asset or its cash generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount. Impairment losses are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss. An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset's carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined net of depreciation or amortisation, had no impairment loss been recognised.

ix. Operating leases

Lease rental in respect of assets taken on operating lease are charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

x. Foreign currency transactions

Foreign exchange transactions are recorded at the exchange rates prevailing at the date of transaction. Realised gains and losses on foreign exchange transactions during the year are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss. Monetary assets and monetary liabilities that are determined in foreign currency are translated at the exchange rate prevalent at the date of Balance Sheet. The resulting difference is recorded in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

In accordance with Accounting Standard 11, "Accounting for the effects of changes in foreign exchange rates", exchange differences arising in respect of long term foreign currency monetary items used for acquisition of depreciable capital asset, are added to or deducted from the cost of asset and are depreciated over the balance life of asset.

In respect of forward exchange contracts taken by the Company for hedging purposes, the premium or discount on such contracts is amortized as income or expense over the life of the contract. Any profit or loss arising on the cancellation or renewal of forward contracts is recognised as an income or expense for the period. The exchange difference on such a forward exchange contract is calculated as the difference between- (a) the foreign currency amount of the contract translated at the exchange rate at the Balance Sheet date, or the settlement date where the transaction is settled during the reporting period; and

(b) the same foreign currency amount translated at the later of the date of inception of the forward exchange contract and the last reporting date. Such exchange differences are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss in the reporting period in which the exchange rates change.

xi. Taxation

Income taxes are accrued in the same period in which the related revenue and expense arise. Income tax expenses comprise current tax (i.e. the amount of tax for the period determined in accordance with the Income tax Act, 1961) and deferred tax charge or credit (reflecting the tax effects of the timing differences between the accounting income and taxable income for the period). The deferred tax charge or credit and the corresponding deferred tax liabilities or assets are recognised using the tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the Balance Sheet date. Deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent there is reasonable certainty that the assets can be realised in the future, however, where there is unabsorbed depreciation or carry forward loss under taxation laws, deferred tax assets are recognised only if there is virtual certainty of realisation of such assets. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each Balance Sheet date and written down or written up to reflect the amount that is reasonably/ virtually certain (as the case may be) to be realised.

Deferred tax consequences of timing differences that originate in the tax holiday period and reverse after the tax holiday period are recognised in the period in which the timing differences originate.

xii. Earnings per share

Basic earning per share is computed 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. For the purpose of calculating diluted earnings per share, net profit or loss for the year attributable to equity shareholders and the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year are adjusted for the effect of all dilutive potential equity shares except where the results would be anti-dilutive.

xiii. Borrowing costs

Borrowing costs are interest and other costs (including exchange differences arising from foreign currency borrowings to the extent that they are regarded as an adjustment to interest costs) incurred by the Company in connection with the borrowing of funds. Borrowing costs directly attributable to acquisition or construction of those tangible fixed assets which necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use are capitalised. Other borrowing costs are recognised as expense in the period in which they are incurred. In determining the amount of borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation during a period, any income earned on the temporary investment of those borrowings is deducted from the borrowing costs incurred.

Expenses incurred on commitment charges and other ancillary costs related to availing of loan facility or loan commitment from banks are amortised over the period of loan commencing from the first drawdown of such loans. Until such commencement of amortisation, they are disclosed in the financial statements as unamortised borrowing cost.

xiv. Employee benefits

The Company's obligations towards various employee benefits have been recognised as follows:

Short- term employee benefits:

All employee benefits payable wholly within twelve months of rendering service are classified as short-term employee benefits. Benefits such as salaries, allowances, short-term compensated absences and the expected cost of other benefits is recognised in the period in which the employee renders the related service.

Post employment benefits:

- Defined contribution plan

The Provident Fund Scheme is a defined contribution plan. The Company's contribution to defined contribution plans is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss in the financial year to which they relate.

- Defined benefit plans

The Company's gratuity scheme is a defined benefit plan. The present value of obligation under such defined benefit plan is determined based on actuarial valuation carried at the year end using the Projected Unit Credit Method, which recognises each period of service as giving rise to additional unit of employee benefit entitlement and measures each unit separately to build up the final obligation. The obligation is measured at the present value of the estimated future cash flows. The discount rates used for determining the present value of obligation under defined benefit plans, is based on the market yields on Government securities as at the balance sheet date, having maturity periods approximating to the terms of related obligations. Actuarial gains and losses are recognised immediately in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

- Other long term employee benefit:

As per the Company's policy, eligible leaves can be accumulated by the employees and carried forward to future periods to either be utilised during the service, or encashed. The Company accounts for the liability for compensated absences payable in future and long service awards based on an independent actuarial valuation using the projected unit credit method as at the year end. Actuarial gains and losses are recognised immediately in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

xv. Provisions and contingencies

The Company recognises a provision when there is a present obligation as a result of a past event that probably requires an outflow of resources and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. A disclosure for a contingent liability is made when there is a possible but not probable obligation or a present obligation that may, but probably will not, entail an outflow of resources. When there is a obligation in respect of which the likelihood of outflow of resources is remote, no provision or disclosure is made.

xvi. Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash at bank and in hand and fixed deposits with banks with an original maturity of three months or less.

Mar 31, 2014

I. Basis of preparation

These financial statements have been prepared and presented on the accrual basis of accounting and comply with the Accounting Standards prescribed in the Companies (Accounting Standards) Rules, 2006 issued by the Central Government, the relevant provisions of the Companies Act, 1956 and other accounting principles generally accepted in India, to the extent applicable. The financial statements are presented in Indian rupees rounded off to the nearest lakhs.

The Company has continued to incur significant losses in the year ended 31 March 2014 resulting in full erosion of its net worth as at 31 March 2014. During the previous year, on erosion of more than 50% of peak net worth, the Company made reference to BIFR (Board of Industrial and Financial Reconstruction) on 22 November 2013 in accordance with the requirements of Sick Industrial Companies Act, 1985.

The Solar industry witnessed turmoil owing to significant downturn in the global market due to structural over supply situation resulting in a significant reduction in prices of PV cells. The Company has been unable to utilise its capacity as the prices of solar cells in demand did not yield margins owing to higher cost of production of solar cells and consequently, the plant has remained shut for a significant part of the current year ended 31 March 2014 and previous year ended 31 March 2013. Due to the prevailing conditions, the actual net cash inflows in the year ended 31 March 2014 and year ended 31 March 2013 have been significantly lower than the projections for the same period incorporated in the first CDR package. Accordingly, the cash flow projections approved as part of the first CDR package continues to be unreliable and future cash flows in the light of prevailing conditions are not determinable. Due to continued liquidity issues the Company has approached the bankers for a second Corporate Debt Restructuring package. The response of the banks is awaited.

As at 31 March 2014, the networth is fully eroded. On an overall basis the short term liabilities exceed the short term assets by Rs. 34,956.01 lakhs. In addition as per the terms of the first Corporate Debt Restructuring package, an amount of Rs. 8,469.75 lakhs has become repayable as at 31 March 2014 and an amount of Rs 17,741.85 lakhs is repayable by 31 March 2015. Also, there are outstanding foreign currency liabilities for purchase of material and capital goods aggregating to Rs. 2,993.48 lakhs which are outstanding for a period of more than 3 years as at 31 March 2014. Further as explained in Note 35, the Company has not met its NFE obligations 5 years after commencement of business nor has it been able to set up Line C within the stipulated time permitted under Custom regulations in respect of duty free import of capital goods.

During the current year, there have been some key policy announcements in the guidelines issued under the ''Jawaharlal Nehru National Solar Mission (JNNSM), Phase-II, Batch-I'' that provided for bidding with domestic content requirement (both PV/ thin film based cells and modules must be manufactured in India). Also, the guidelines provide that such projects shall be incentivised by way of ''Viability Gap Funding'' and the extent of funding shall be determined basis the project cost of setting up of such projects. The impact of these policy decisions in terms of pricing and orders placed on the Company shall be known only in the next few quarters. Further, certain key decisions that are much awaited for providing a sustained impetus remains unknown at present. Some of these relate to: a) the imposition of Anti Dumping Duty per the application filed by Solar Manufacturers Association of India dated 18th January 2012, wherein subsequent to the year end, on 22 May 2014, notification for final findings has been issued by Ministry of Commerce & Industry recommending anti dumping duty to be imposed. The recommendation is pending with the Central Government for their consideration ; and b) eligibility of the Company for certain capital incentives.

The above factors create multiple uncertainties and the effect thereof on the financial statements, if any, is not ascertainable. The management however believes that it is appropriate to prepare the financial statements on the going concern assumption and accordingly these financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of uncertainties explained above.

ii. Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Examples of such estimates include estimates for provision for doubtful debts, future obligations under employee retirement benefit plans and estimated useful life of fixed assets and estimates of future cash flow for impairment testing. Difference between the actual results and estimates are recognised in the year in which such results are materialised. Any revision to accounting estimates is recognised in accordance with the requirements of the respective Accounting Standard, generally prospectively, in current year and future periods.

iii. Current and non-current classification

The discount rates used for determining the present value of obligation under defined benefit plans, is based on the market yields on Government securities as at the balance sheet date, having maturity periods approximating to the terms of related obligations. Actuarial gains and losses are recognised immediately in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

* Other long term employee benefit:

As per the Company''s policy, eligible leaves can be accumulated by the employees and carried forward to future periods to either be utilised during the service, or encashed. The Company accounts for the liability for compensated absences payable in future and long service awards based on an independent actuarial valuation using the projected unit credit method as at the year end. Actuarial gains and losses are recognised immediately in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

xv. Provisions and contingencies

The Company recognises a provision when there is a present obligation as a result of a past event that probably requires an outflow of resources and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. A disclosure for a contingent liability is made when there is a possible but not probable obligation or a present obligation that may, but probably will not, entail an outflow of resources. When there is a obligation in respect of which the likelihood of outflow of resources is remote, no provision or disclosure is made.

xvi. Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash at bank and in hand and fixed deposits with banks with an original maturity of three months or less.

I. Basis of preparation

These financial statements have been prepared and presented on the accrual basis of accounting and comply with the Accounting Standards prescribed in the Companies (Accounting Standards) Rules, 2006 issued by the Central Government, the relevant provisions of the Companies Act, 1956 and other accounting principles generally accepted in India, to the extent applicable. The financial statements are presented in Indian rupees rounded off to the nearest lakhs.

The Company has incurred significant losses in the year ended 31st March 2013 resulting in substantial erosion of its net worth because of which the reference required in case of erosion of more than 50% of peak net worth was made to BIFR on 22nd November 2012.

The Solar industry has witnessed turmoil owing to significant downturn in the global market due to structural over supply situation resulting in a significant reduction in prices of PV cells. As a result, the Company was unable to utilise its capacity as the cost of production of solar cells continued to be higher than the prevailing market prices and the plant has remained shut for a significant part of the current year and for the other part of the year has been operational at significantly low levels of capacity utilisation. Due to continuing pricing pressure the plant has been shut again in April 2013.

The management however believes that it is appropriate to prepare the financial statements on the going concern assumption and accordingly these financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of uncertainties more fully explained in Note 1 (ii) below.

As a result, the Company was unable to utilise its capacity as the cost of production of solar cells continued to be higher than the prevailing market prices and the plant has remained shut for a significant part of the current year and for the other part of the year has been operational at significantly low levels of capacity utilisation. Due to continuing pricing pressure the plant has been shut again in April 2013. Due to the prevailing conditions, the actual net cash inflows during the year ended 31st March 2013 are significantly lower than the projections for the same period incorporated in the first CDR package. Accordingly, the cash flow projections approved as part of the first CDR package are no longer reliable and future cash flows in the light of prevailing conditions is not determinable. Due to continued liquidity issues, the Company has approached the bankers for a second Corporate Debt Restructuring package. The response of the banks is awaited. Results of key policy decisions necessary for the revival of the sector remain unknown at present. Some of these relate to: a) the imposition of Anti Dumping Duty per the application filed by Solar Manufacturers Association of India dated 18th January 2012; b) domestic content requirements for thin film technology; c) Incentivisation programme for solar projects; and d) eligibility of the Company for certain capital incentives. As at the balance sheet date, the short term liabilities are exceeding the short term assets Rs. 7,125.31 lakhs. Also, as per the terms of Corporate Debt Restructuring package an amount of Rs. 2,281.89 lakhs representing 3% of the outstanding Term Loans, Funded Interest Term Loans, Working Capital Demand Loan and Priority Term Loan shall become payable in the year ending 31st March 2014. Further, there is a quarterly interest thereon which shall become payable from the beginning of the quarter ending 30th September 2013. The above factors create multiple uncertainties and the effect thereof on the financial statements, if any, is not ascertainable.

iii. Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Examples of such estimates include estimates for provision for doubtful debts, future obligations under employee retirement benefit plans and estimated useful life of fixed assets and estimates of future cash flow for impairment testing. Difference between the actual results and estimates are recognised in the year in which such results are materialised. Any revision to accounting estimates is recognised in accordance with the requirements of the respective Accounting Standard, generally prospectively, in current year and future periods.

iv. Current-non-current classification

All assets and liabilities are classified into current and non-current.

Assets

An asset is classified as current when it satisfies any of the following criteria:

(a) it is expected to be realised in, or is intended for sale or consumption in, the Company''s normal operating cycle;

(b) it is held primarily for the purpose of being traded;

(c) it is expected to be realised within 12 months after the reporting date; or

(d) it is cash or cash equivalent unless it is restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least 12 months after the reporting date.

Current assets include the current portion of non-current financial assets.

All other assets are classified as non-current.

Liabilities

A liability is classified as current when it satisfies any of the following criteria:

(a) it is expected to be settled in the Company''s normal operating cycle;

(b) it is held primarily for the purpose of being traded;

(c) it is due to be settled within 12 months after the reporting date; or

(d) the Company does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting date. Terms of a liability that could, at the option of the counterparty, result in its settlement by the issue of equity instruments do not affect its classification.

Current liabilities include current portion of non-current financial liabilities.

All other liabilities are classified as non-current.

Operating Cycle

Operating cycle is the time between the acquisition of assets for processing and their realisation in cash or cash equivalents. The company''s normal operating cycle is 12 months.

v. Revenue Recognition

Sale of goods

Revenue from sale of goods is recognised when significant risks and rewards of ownership in the goods are transferred to the customers.

Interest income

Interest income is recognised using the time proportionate method, based on the applicable interest rates.

vi. Inventories

Raw materials and finished goods are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value. The cost of purchase consists of the purchase price including duties and taxes other than those subsequently recoverable by the enterprise from the taxing authorities, freight inwards and other expenditure directly attributable for its acquisition.

Cost is determined on the basis of first-in first-out method. In respect of finished goods, cost includes appropriate share of manufacturing overheads, wherever applicable.

Obsolete and slow moving inventories are identified at the time of physical verification of inventories and, where necessary, a provision for obsolescence is recognised or the same is written-off.

Consumable stores are charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss at the point of purchase.

Stock of scrap and waste is valued at estimated realisable value. Machinery spares that are of regular use are charged to Statement of Profit and Loss as and when consumed.

vii. Fixed Assets

Fixed assets including machinery spares are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Cost of acquisition is inclusive of freight, duties, taxes and other incidental costs related to acquisition and installation. In respect of fixed assets constructed, costs comprises cost of construction that relate directly to the specific asset and administration and other general overhead expenses that are directly attributable to the construction activity and can be allocated to the specific asset.

Exchange differences (favorable as well as unfavorable) arising in respect of transaction/settlement of long term foreign currency borrowing attributable to the acquisition of depreciable asset are also included in the cost of the asset.

Cost of assets not ready for use and administration and other general overhead expenses that are directly attributable to the construction activity of specific asset until commissioning of such assets, are disclosed as Capital work in progress.

viii. Depreciation

Tangible assets

Depreciation has been calculated on a pro rata basis, under the straight-line method over the useful life of assets, based on rates specified in Schedule XIV to the Companies Act, 1956, except mobile phones and leasehold land. Mobile phones (included under office equipments) are depreciated over a period of one year and leasehold land is amortised over the period of lease on a straight line basis.

Machinery spares are depreciated over the useful life of 5 years on a pro rata basis.

Intangible assets

Intangible assets representing computer software are depreciated over a period of 5 years on a pro rata basis.

Assets costing upto Rs. 5,000 are fully depreciated in the year of purchase.

ix. Impairment

The carrying amounts of the Company''s assets are reviewed at each Balance Sheet date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, the asset''s recoverable amount is estimated as higher of its net selling price and value in use. An impairment loss is recognised whenever the carrying amount of an asset or its cash generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount. Impairment losses are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss. An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset''s carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined net of depreciation or amortisation, had no impairment loss been recognised.

x. Operating leases

Lease rental in respect of assets taken on operating lease are charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

xi. Foreign currency transactions

Foreign exchange transactions are recorded at the exchange rates prevailing at the date of transaction. Realised gains and losses on foreign exchange transactions during the year are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss. Monetary assets and monetary liabilities that are determined in foreign currency are translated at the exchange rate prevalent at the date of Balance Sheet. The resulting difference is recorded in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

In accordance with Accounting Standard 11, "Accounting for the effects of changes in foreign exchange rates", exchange differences arising in respect of long term foreign currency monetary items used for acquisition of depreciable capital asset, are added to or deducted from the cost of asset and are depreciated over the balance life of asset.

In respect of forward exchange contracts taken by the Company for hedging purposes, the premium or discount on such contracts is amortized as income or expense over the life of the contract. Any profit or loss arising on the cancellation or renewal of forward contracts is recognised as an income or expense for the period. The exchange difference on such a forward exchange contract is calculated as the difference between:

(a) The foreign currency amount of the contract translated at the exchange rate at the Balance Sheet date, or the settlement date where the transaction is settled during the reporting period; and

(b) The same foreign currency amount translated at the later of the date of inception of the forward exchange contract and the last reporting date. Such exchange differences are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss in the reporting period in which the exchange rates change.

xii. Taxation

Income taxes are accrued in the same period in which the related revenue and expense arise. Income tax expenses comprise current tax (i.e. the amount of tax for the period determined in accordance with the Income tax Act, 1961) and deferred tax charge or credit (reflecting the tax effects of the timing differences between the accounting income and taxable income for the period). The deferred tax charge or credit and the corresponding deferred tax liabilities or assets are recognised using the tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the Balance Sheet date. Deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent there is reasonable certainty that the assets can be realised in the future, however, where there is unabsorbed depreciation or carry forward loss under taxation laws, deferred tax assets are recognised only if there is virtual certainty of realisation of such assets. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each Balance Sheet date and written down or written up to reflect the amount that is reasonably/ virtually certain (as the case may be) to be realised.

Deferred tax consequences of timing differences that originate in the tax holiday period and reverse after the tax holiday period are recognised in the period in which the timing differences originate.

xiii. Earnings per share

Basic earning per share is computed 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. For the purpose of calculating diluted earnings per share, net profit or loss for the year attributable to equity shareholders and the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year are adjusted for the effect of all dilutive potential equity shares except where the results would be anti-dilutive.

xiv. Borrowing Costs

Borrowing costs are interest and other costs (including exchange differences arising from foreign currency borrowings to the extent that they are regarded as an adjustment to interest costs) incurred by the Company in connection with the borrowing of funds. Borrowing costs directly attributable to acquisition or construction of those tangible fixed assets which necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use are capitalised. Other borrowing costs are recognised as expense in the period in which they are incurred. In determining the amount of borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation during a period, any income earned on the temporary investment of those borrowings is deducted from the borrowing costs incurred.

Expenses incurred on commitment charges and other ancillary costs related to availing of loan facility or loan commitment from banks are amortised over the period of loan commencing from the first drawdown of such loans. Until such commencement of amortisation, they are disclosed in the financial statements as unamortised borrowing cost.

xv. Employee benefits

The Company''s obligations towards various employee benefits have been recognised as follows:

Short- term employee benefits:

All employee benefits payable wholly within twelve months of rendering service are classified as short-term employee benefits. Benefits such as salaries, allowances, short-term compensated absences and the expected cost of other benefits is recognised in the period in which the employee renders the related service.

Post employment benefits:

- Defined contribution plan

The Provident Fund Scheme is a defined contribution plan. The Company''s contribution to defined contribution plans is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss in the financial year to which they relate.

- Defined benefit plans

The Company''s gratuity scheme is a defined benefit plan. The present value of obligation under such defined benefit plan is determined based on actuarial valuation carried at the year end using the Projected Unit Credit Method, which recognises each period of service as giving rise to additional unit of employee benefit entitlement and measures each unit separately to build up the final obligation. The obligation is measured at the present value of the estimated future cash flows. The discount rates used for determining the present value of obligation under defined benefit plans, is based on the market yields on Government securities as at the balance sheet date, having maturity periods approximating to the terms of related obligations. Actuarial gains and losses are recognised immediately in the Statement of Profit and Loss. Actuarial gains and losses are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

- Other long term employee benefit:

As per the Company''s policy, eligible leaves can be accumulated by the employees and carried forward to future periods to either be utilised during the service, or encashed.

Actuarial gains and losses are recognised immediately in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

xvi. Provisions and Contingencies

The Company recognises a provision when there is a present obligation as a result of a past event that probably requires an outflow of resources and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. A disclosure for a contingent liability is made when there is a possible but not probable obligation or a present obligation that may, but probably will not, entail an outflow of resources. When there is an obligation in respect of which the likelihood of outflow of resources is remote, no provision or disclosure is made.

I. Basis of preparation

These financial statements have been prepared and presented on the accrual basis of accounting and comply with the Accounting Standards prescribed in the Companies (Accounting Standards) Rules, 2006 issued by the Central Government, the relevant provisions of the Companies Act, 1956 and other accounting principles generally accepted in India, to the extent applicable. The financial statements are presented in Indian rupees rounded off to the nearest lakhs.This is the first year of application of the revised Schedule VI to the Companies Act, 1956 for the preparation of the financial statements of the company. The revised Schedule VI introduces some significant conceptual changes as well as new disclosures. These include classification of all assets and liabilities into current and non-current. The previous year figures have also undergone a major reclassification to comply with the requirements of the revised Schedule VI.

The Company has incurred significant losses in the year ended 31st March, 2012. The accumulated losses have resulted in substantial erosion of its net worth. The Solar industry and the Company have undergone turmoil owing to significant downturn in the global market. As a consequence, the Company has been unable to utilise its capacity as the cost of production of solar cells continue to be higher than the prevailing market prices. Management has formulated plans to increase its focus in the domestic market by entering into strategic alliances with module manufacturers that would enable them to participate in the entire supply chain and increase their profitability. The outlook of the industry, especially the domestic market, has shown some signs of recovery. Consequently, management intends to negotiate the prices of solar cells, maintain consistent margins on cells and intends to utilise its capacity to the optimum as a long terms strategy. Further, considering the difficulties the Company has faced during the past one year, it has had its debt restructured as more fully explained in Note 6. Under the debt restructuring package additional credit facilities have been sanctioned. In the short term, management has improved collections and is making efforts in monetising some of its receivables. Further, the Company has been able to obtain loan from one of its related party and also has been able to obtain contribution from its promoters. The management believes that it is appropriate to prepare the financial statements on the going concern assumption and accordingly these results do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of uncertainties more fully explained in Note 28.

ii. Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Examples of such estimates include estimates for provision for doubtful debts, future obligations under employee retirement benefit plans and estimated useful life of fixed assets and estimates of future cash flow for impairment testing.

vii. Impairment

Management periodically assesses using external and internal sources whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. Impairment occurs where the carrying value exceeds the present value of future cash flows expected to arise from the continuing use of the asset and its eventual disposal. The impairment loss to be expensed is determined as the excess of the carrying amount over the higher of the asset's net sales price or present value as determined above. An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recorded only to the extent that the asset's carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined net of depreciation or amortisation, if no impairment loss had been recognised.

The resulting difference is recorded in the Profit and Loss Account.

In respect of forward exchange contracts taken by the Company for hedging purposes, the premium or discount arising at the inception of a forward exchange contract is amortised as expense or income over the life of the contract. Exchange differences on such contracts are recognised in the Profit and Loss Account in the reporting period in which the exchange rates change. The foreign currency receivable or payable arising under the forward contract is revalued using the closing rate, and any resultant gain or loss is taken to the Profit and Loss Account.

x. Taxation

Income taxes are accrued in the same period in which the related revenue and expense arise. Income tax expenses comprise current tax (i.e. the amount of tax for the period determined in accordance with the Income Tax Act, 1961) and deferred tax charge or credit (reflecting the tax effects of the timing differences between the accounting income and taxable income for the period). The deferred tax charge or credit and the corresponding deferred tax liabilities or assets are recognised using the tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the Balance Sheet date. Deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent there is reasonable certainty that the assets can be realised in the future, however, where there is unabsorbed depreciation or carry forward loss under taxation laws, deferred tax assets are recognised only if there is virtual certainty of realisation of such assets. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each Balance Sheet date and written down or written up to reflect the amount that is reasonably/ virtually certain (as the case may be) to be realised.

Deferred tax consequences of timing differences that originate in the tax holiday period and reverse after the tax holiday period are recognised in the period in which the timing differences originate.

xi. Earnings per share

Basic earning per share is computed 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. For the purpose of calculating diluted earnings per share, net profit or loss for the year attributable to equity shareholders and the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year are adjusted for the effect of all dilutive potential equity shares except where the results would be anti-dilutive.

xii. Borrowing costs

Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition or construction of qualifying assets are capitalised. Other borrowing costs are recognised as expenses in the period in which they are incurred. In determining the amount of borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation during a period, any income earned on the temporary investment of those borrowings is deducted from the borrowing costs incurred.

Expenses incurred on commitment charges and other ancillary costs related to availing of loan facility or loan commitment from banks are amortised over the period of loan commencing from the first drawdown of such loans. Until such commencement of amortisation, they are disclosed in the financial statements as unamortised borrowing cost.

xiii. Employee benefits

The Company's obligations towards various employee benefits have been recognised as follows:

Short- term employee benefits:

All employee benefits payable wholly within twelve months of rendering service are classified as short-term employee benefits. Benefits such as salaries, allowances, short-term compensated absences and the expected cost of other benefits is recognised in the period in which the employee renders the related service.

Post employment benefits:

- Defined contribution plan

The Provident Fund Scheme is a defined contribution plan. The Company's contribution to defined contribution plans is recognised in the Profit and Loss Account in the financial year to which they relate.

- Defined benefit plans

The Company's gratuity scheme is a defined benefit plan. The present value of obligation under such defined benefit plan is determined based on actuarial valuation carried at the year end using the Projected Unit Credit Method, which recognises each period of service as giving rise to additional unit of employee benefit entitlement and measures each unit separately to build up the final obligation. The obligation is measured at the present value of the estimated future cash flows. The discount rate used for determining the present value of the obligation under defined benefit plans, is based on the market yields on Government securities as at the balance sheet date. Actuarial gains and losses are recognised in the Profit and Loss Account.

- Other long term employee benefit:

Benefits under the Company's leave encashment constitute other long term employee benefits, recognised as an expense in the profit and loss account for the period in which the employee has rendered services. Estimated liability on account of these benefits is actuarially determined based on the projected unit credit method using the yield on government bonds, as on the date of the balance sheet, as the discounting rate. Actuarial gains and losses are charged to the Profit and Loss Account.

xiv. Miscellaneous expenditure

Until 31st March 2010, the Company had an accounting policy to amortise share issue expenses over a period of 5 years. The share issue expenses amounting to Rs.308,863,060 incurred during the year and the balance of Rs. 26,960,927 remaining unamortised as at 31st March 2010, has now been adjusted against the Securities Premium Account as permitted under Section 78 of the Companies Act, 1956, on account of a change in the accounting policy in the year ended 31st March 2011. Had the Company continued to follow the same accounting policy, the miscellaneous expenditure written off and the net loss would have been higher by Rs. 34,778,485 for the year ended and miscellaneous expenditure would have been higher by Rs. 301,045,502 as at 31st March 2011.

I. Basis of preparation

The financial statements of Indosolar Limited ("the Company") have been prepared under the historical cost convention on accrual basis of accounting in accordance with the Indian Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) and mandatory accounting standards as specified in the Companies (Accounting Standards) Rules, 2006, the provisions of the Companies Act, 1956, to the extent applicable, and as adopted consistently by the Company.

ii. Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Examples of such estimates include estimates for provision for doubtful debts, future obligations under employee retirement benefit plans and estimated useful life of fixed assets. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

The Company recognises a provision when there is a present obligation as a result of a past event that probably requires an outflow of resources and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. A disclosure for a contingent liability is made when there is a possible but not probable obligation or a present obligation that may, but probably will not, entail an outflow of resources. When there is a obligation in respect of which the likelihood of outflow of resources is remote, no provision or disclosure is made.

iii. Revenue recognition

Sale of goods

Revenue from sale of goods is recognised when significant risks and rewards of ownership are transferred to the customers.

Interest income

Interest income is recognised using the time proportionate method, based on interest rates implicit in the transaction.

iv. Inventories

Raw materials and finished goods are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value. The cost of purchase consists of the purchase price including duties and taxes other than those subsequently recoverable by the enterprise from the taxing authorities, freight inwards and other expenditure directly attributable for its acquisition.

Cost is determined on the basis of first-in first-out method. In respect of finished goods, cost includes appropriate share of manufacturing overheads, wherever applicable.

Obsolete and slow moving inventories are identified at the time of physical verification of inventories and, where necessary, a provision for obsolescence is recognised or the same is written-off.

Stock of scrap and waste is valued at estimated realisable value. Consumable stores are charged to revenue at the point of purchase.

Machinery spares that are of regular use are charged to Profit and Loss Account as and when consumed.

v. Fixed assets

Fixed assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Cost of acquisition is inclusive of freight, duties, taxes and other incidental costs related to acquisition and installation. In respect of fixed assets constructed, costs comprises costs of construction that relate directly to the specific asset and administration and other general overhead expenses that are directly attributable to the construction activity and can be allocated to the specific asset.

Cost of assets not ready for use, advances paid towards acquisition of fixed assets and administration and other general overhead expenses that are directly attributable to the construction activity of specific asset until commissioning of such assets, are disclosed as Capital Work in Progress.

vi. Depreciation

Tangible assets

Depreciation has been calculated on a pro rata basis, under the straight-line method over the useful life of assets, based on rates specified in Schedule XIV to the Companies Act, 1956, except mobile phones and leasehold land. Mobile phones (included under office equipments) are depreciated over a period of one year and leasehold land is amortised over the period of lease on straight line basis.

Intangible assets

Intangible assets representing computer software are depreciated over a period of 5 years on a pro rata basis.

Assets costing upto Rs. 5,000 are fully depreciated in the year of purchase.

vii. Impairment

Management periodically assesses using external and internal sources whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. Impairment occurs where the carrying value exceeds the present value of future cash flows expected to arise from the continuing use of the asset and its eventual disposal. The impairment loss to be expensed is determined as the excess of the carrying amount over the higher of the assets net sales price or present value as determined above. An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recorded only to the extent that the assets carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined net of depreciation or amortisation, if no impairment loss had been recognised.

viii. Operating leases

Lease rental in respect of assets taken on operating lease are charged to the Profit and Loss Account on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

ix. Foreign currency transactions

Foreign exchange transactions are recorded at the exchange rates prevailing at the date of transaction. Realised gains and losses on foreign exchange transactions during the year are recognised in the Profit and Loss Account. Monetary assets and monetary liabilities that are determined in foreign currency are translated at the exchange rate prevalent at the date of Balance Sheet. The resulting difference is recorded in the Profit and Loss Account.

In respect of forward exchange contracts taken by the Company for hedging purposes, the premium or discount arising at the inception of a forward exchange contract is amortised as expense or income over the life of the contract. Exchange differences on such contracts are recognised in the Profit and Loss Account in the reporting period in which the exchange rates change.

In respect of forward contracts which are covered under Accounting Standard (AS) 11, Effect of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates, the difference between spot rate and forward rate on the date the forward exchange contract is entered into, is amortised over the tenure of the contract. The foreign currency receivable or payable arising under the forward contract is revalued using the closing rate, and any resultant gain or loss is taken to the Profit and Loss Account.

x. Taxation

Income taxes are accrued in the same period in which the related revenue and expense arise. Income tax expenses comprise current tax (i.e. the amount of tax for the period determined in accordance with the Income tax Act, 1961) and deferred tax charge or credit (reflecting the tax effects of the timing differences between the accounting income and taxable income for the period). The deferred tax charge or credit and the corresponding deferred tax liabilities or assets are recognised using the tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the Balance Sheet date. Deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent there is reasonable certainty that the assets can be realised in the future, however, where there is unabsorbed depreciation or carry forward loss under taxation laws, deferred tax assets are recognised only if there is virtual certainty of realisation of such assets. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each Balance Sheet date and written down or written up to reflect the amount that is reasonably/ virtually certain (as the case may be) to be realised.

Deferred tax consequences of timing differences that originate in the tax holiday period and reverse after the tax holiday period are recognised in the period in which the timing differences originate.

xi. Earnings per share

Basic earning per share is computed using the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year. Diluted earning per share is computed using the weighted average number of equity and dilutive equity equivalent shares outstanding during the period end, except where the results would be anti-dilutive.

xii. Borrowing costs

Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition or construction of qualifying assets are capitalised. Other borrowing costs are recognised as expenses in the period in which they are incurred. In determining the amount of borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation during a period, any income earned on the temporary investment of those borrowings is deducted from the borrowing costs incurred.
