48 Financial InstrumentsCapital management

The Company manages its capital to ensure that entities in the Company will be able to continue as going concern, while maximising the return to stakeholders through the optimisation of the debt and equity balance.

The Company determines the amount of capital required on the basis of annual operating plans and long-term product and other strategic investment plans. The funding requirements are met through equity, long-term borrowings and other short-term borrowings.

Financial risk management objectives

The treasury function provides services to the business, co-ordinates access to domestic and international financial markets, monitors and manages the financial risks relating to the operations through internal risk reports which analyse exposures by degree and magnitude of risks. These risks include market risk (including currency risk, interest rate risk and other price risk), credit risk and liquidity risk.

The Company seeks to minimise the effects of these risks by using natural hedging financial instruments and forward contracts to hedge risk exposures. The use of financial derivatives is governed by the Company''s policies approved by the board of directors, which provide written principles on foreign exchange risk, the use of financial derivatives, and the investment of excess liquidity. The Company does not enter into or trade financial instruments, including derivative financial instruments, for speculative purposes.

Market risk

Market risk is the risk of any loss in future earnings, in realizable fair values or in future cash flows that may result from a change in the price of a financial instrument. The Company''s activities expose it primarily to the financial risks of changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. The Company actively manages its currency and interest rate exposure through its finance division, wherever required, to mitigate the risks from such exposures.

Foreign currency risk management

The Company undertakes transactions denominated in foreign currencies; consequently, exposures to exchange rate fluctuations arise. The Company actively manages its currency rate exposures through a centralised treasury division and uses natural hedging principles to mitigate the risks from such exposures.

Disclosure of hedged and unhedged foreign currency exposure

The carrying amounts of the Company''s foreign currency denominated monetary assets and monetary liabilities at the end of the reporting period are as follows:

Foreign currency sensitivity analysis

Movement in the functional currencies of the various operations of the Company against major foreign currencies may impact the Company''s revenues from its operations. Any weakening of the functional currency may impact the Company''s cost of imports and cost of borrowings and consequently may increase the cost of financing the Company''s capital expenditures. The foreign exchange rate sensitivity is calculated for each currency by aggregation of the net foreign exchange rate exposure of a currency and a simultaneous parallel foreign exchange rates shift in the foreign exchange rates of each currency by 2%, which represents management''s assessment of the reasonably possible change in foreign exchange rates. The sensitivity analysis includes only outstanding foreign currency denominated monetary items and adjusts their translation at the period end for a 2% change in foreign currency rates.

In management''s opinion, the sensitivity analysis is unrepresentative of the inherent foreign exchange risk because of the existing exchange earning capacity of the company on account of its EOU status (Export oriented undertaking) and higher proportion of earnings in foreign exchange through exports.

Interest rate risk management

The Company is exposed to interest rate risk because it borrows funds at both fixed and floating interest rates. The risk is managed by the Company by maintaining an appropriate mix between fixed and floating rate borrowings. Hedging activities are evaluated regularly to align with interest rate views and defined risk appetite, ensuring the most cost-effective hedging strategies are applied. Further, in appropriate cases, the Company also effects changes in the borrowing arrangements to convert floating interest rates to fixed interest rates.

Interest rate sensitivity analysis

The sensitivity analysis below have been determined based on the exposure to interest rates for non-derivative instruments at the end of the reporting period. For floating rate liabilities, the analysis is prepared assuming the amount of the liability outstanding at the end of the reporting period was outstanding for the whole year. A 25 basis point increase or decrease is used when reporting interest rate risk internally to key management personnel and represents management''s assessment of the reasonably possible change in interest rates.

If interest rates had been 25 basis points higher/lower and all other variables were held constant, the Company''s loss for the year ended March 31, 2022 would decrease/ increase by Rs. 36.95 lakhs (March 31, 2021 : Rs.91.00 lakhs). This is mainly attributable to the Company''s exposure to interest rates on its variable rate borrowings.

Credit risk management

Credit risk arises when a customer or counterparty does not meet its obligations under a customer contract or financial instrument, leading to a financial loss. The Company is exposed to credit risk from its operating activities primarily trade receivables and from its financing/ investing activities, including deposits with banks and foreign exchange transactions. The Company has no significant concentration of credit risk with any counterparty.

Exposure to credit risk

The carrying amount of financial assets represents the maximum credit exposure. The maximum exposure is the total of the carrying amount of balances with banks, short term deposits with banks, trade receivables, margin money and other financial assets excluding equity investments.

(a) Trade Receivables

The Company has credit evaluation policy for each customer and based on the evaluation, credit limit of each customer is defined. Wherever the Company assesses the credit risk as high, the exposure is backed by either bank guarantee/letter of credit or security deposits.

The Company does not have higher concentration of credit risks to a single customer. As per simplified approach, the Company makes provision of expected credit losses on trade receivables using a provision matrix to mitigate the risk of default in payments and makes appropriate provision at each reporting date wherever outstanding is for longer period and involves higher risk.

(b) Investments, Cash and Cash Equivalents and Bank Deposits

Credit Risk on cash and cash equivalents, deposits with the banks/financial institutions is generally low as the said deposits have been made with the banks/financial institutions, who have been assigned high credit rating by international and domestic rating agencies.

Credit Risk on Derivative Instruments is generally low as the Company enters into the Derivative Contracts with the reputed Banks.

Investments of surplus funds are made only with approved banks/ financial institutions/ counterparty. Investments primarily include bank deposits, etc. These bank deposits and counterparties have low credit risk. The Company has standard operating procedures and investment policy for deployment of surplus liquidity, which allows investment in bank deposit and restricts the exposure in equity markets.

Offsetting related disclosures

Offsetting of cash and cash equivalents to borrowings as per the bank agreement is available only to the bank in the event of a default. Company does not have the right to offset in case of the counter party''s bankruptcy, therefore, these disclosures are not required.

Liquidity risk management

Liquidity risk refers to the risk that the Company cannot meet its financial obligations. The objective of liquidity risk management is to maintain sufficient liquidity and ensure that funds are available for use as per requirements. The Company invests its surplus funds in bank fixed deposits, which carry minimal mark to market risks. The Company also constantly monitors funding options available in the debt and capital markets with a view to maintaining financial flexibility.

Liquidity tables

The following tables detail the Company''s remaining contractual maturity for its non-derivative financial liabilities with agreed repayment periods. The tables have been drawn up based on the undiscounted cash flows of financial liabilities based on the earliest date on which the Company can be required to pay.

50 Retirement benefit plans Defined contribution plans

In accordance with Indian law, eligible employees of the Company are entitled to receive benefits in respect of Gratuity fund, a defined contribution plan, in which both employees and the Company make monthly contributions at a specified percentage of the covered employees'' salary. The contributions, as specified under the law, are made to the Provident fund, Gratuity fund, Superannuation fund as well as Employee State Insurance Fund.

The total expense recognised in profit or loss of Rs.589.34 Lakhs (for the year ended March 31, 2021: Rs. 535.68 Lakhs) represents contribution paid to these plans by the Company at rates specified in the rules of the plan.

Defined benefit plans (a) Gratuity

Gratuity is payable as per Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972. In terms of the same, gratuity is computed by multiplying last drawn salary (basic salary including dearness Allowance if any) by completed years of continuous service with part thereof in excess of six months and again by 15/26. The Act provides for a vesting period of 5 years for withdrawal and retirement and a monetary ceiling on gratuity payable to an employee on separation, as may be prescribed under the Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972, from time to time. However, in cases where an enterprise has more favourable terms in this regard the same has been adopted.

These plans typically expose the Company to actuarial risks such as: investment risk, interest rate risk and salary risk.

Investment risk The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated using a discount rate determined by reference to the market yields on government bonds denominated in Indian Rupees. If the actual return on plan asset is below this rate, it will create a plan deficit.

Interest risk A decrease in the bond interest rate will increase the plan liability. However, this will be partially offset by an increase in the return on the plan''s debt investments.

Longevity risk The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated by reference to the best estimate of the mortality of plan participants both during and after their employment. An increase in the life expectancy of the plan participants will increase the plan''s liability.

Salary risk The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated by reference to the future salaries of plan

participants. As such, an increase in the salary of the plan participants will increase the plan''s liability.

(e) Proceedings under the Benami Transactions (Prohibition) Act, 1988 (45 of 1988) and rules made thereunder

There are no proceedings initiated or are pending against the company for holding any benami property under the Benami Transactions (Prohibition) Act, 1988 (45 of 1988) and rules made thereunder

(f) Borrowings from banks

The Company is not declared as wilful defaulter by any bank or financial Institution or other lenders.

(g) Relationship with Struck off Companies

(h) Compliance with number of layers of companies

The Company is in compliance with the number of layers prescribed under clause (87) of section 2 of the Act read with Companies (Restriction on number of Layers) Rules, 2017.

Formula adopted for above Ratios:

Current Ratio = Current Assets / (Total Current Liabilities - Security Deposits payable on Demand - Current maturities of Long Term Debt)

Debt-Equity Ratio = Total Debt / Total Equity

Debt Service Coverage Ratio = (EBITDA - Current Tax) / (Principal Repayment Gross Interest on term loans)

Return on Equity Ratio = Total Comprehensive Income / Average Total Equity

Inventory Turnover Ratio (Average Inventory days) = 365 / (Net Revenue / Average Inventories)

Trade receivables Turnover Ratio (Average Receivables days) = 365 / (Net Revenue / Average Trade receivables)

Trade Payables Turnover Ratio (Average Payable days) = 365 / (Net Revenue / Average Trade payables)

Net Capital Turnover Ratio = (Inventory Turnover Ratio Trade receivables turnover ratio - Trade payables turnover ratio)

Net Profit Ratio = Net Profit / Net Revenue

Return on Capital employed = (Total Comprehensive Income Interest) / (Average of (Equity Total Debt)

Return on Investment (Assets) = Total Comprehensive Income / Average Total Assets

Reasons for Variation if more than 25%Current Ratio

The current ratio have been decreased mainly due to decrease in non current asset held for sale compared to the previous year. Debt equity ratio

Major portion of the term loans have been repaid during the year and accordingly, the Debt Equity Ratio has decreased.

Debt Service Coverage Ratio

Due to significant decrease in loss, due to profit on sale of IKKT undertaking, the Debt Service Coverage Ratio has significantly improved.

(j) Scheme of arrangements

The Ind AS are prescribed under Section 133 of the Act read with Rule 3 of the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 and Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Amendment Rules, 2016.

Basis of preparation and presentation

For all periods up to and including the year ended March 31, 2017, the Company prepared its financial statements in accordance with accounting standards notified under section 133 of the Companies Act 2013, read together with paragraph 7 of the Companies (Accounts) Rules, 2014 (Indian GAAP).

The financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2018 are the first financial statements the Company has prepared in accordance with Ind AS with the date of transition as April 1, 2016. Refer to note 53 for information on how the Company adopted Ind AS.

Pending approval of the Hon’ble NCLT on the proposed resolution plan and expected implementation of the resolution plan as part of CIRP, the financial statements have been prepared and presented by the Company on a going concern basis.

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, liabilities, income and expenses and the disclosure of contingent liabilities on the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Any revision to accounting estimates is recognised prospectively in current and future periods.

Functional and presentation currency

These financial statements are presented in Indian Rupees (INR), which is the Company’s functional currency. All financial information presented in INR has been rounded to the nearest Lakhs (up to two decimals). The financial statements are approved for issue by the Company’s Resolution Professionals/ Board of Directors on August 21, 2018.

2A Critical accounting estimates and management judgments

In application of the accounting policies, which are described in note 2, the management of the Company is required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant.

Information about significant areas of estimation, uncertainty and critical judgements used in applying accounting policies that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements is included in the following notes:

Property, Plant and Equipment (PPE) and Intangible Assets

The residual values and estimated useful life of PPEs and Intangible Assets are assessed by the technical team at each reporting date by taking into account the nature of asset, the estimated usage of the asset, the operating condition of the asset, past history of replacement and maintenance support. Upon review, the management accepts the assigned useful life and residual value for computation of depreciation/amortisation. Also, management judgement is exercised for classifying the asset as investment properties or vice versa.

Current tax

Calculations of income taxes for the current period are done based on applicable tax laws and management’s judgement by evaluating positions taken in tax returns and interpretations of relevant provisions of law.

Deferred Tax Assets

Significant management judgement is exercised by reviewing the deferred tax assets at each reporting date to determine the amount of deferred tax assets that can be retained/ recognised, based upon the likely timing and the level of future taxable profits together with future tax planning strategies.

Fair value

Management uses valuation techniques in measuring the fair value of financial instruments where active market quotes are not available. In applying the valuation techniques, management makes maximum use of market inputs and uses estimates and assumptions that are, as far as possible, consistent with observable data that market participants would use in pricing the instrument. Where applicable data is not observable, management uses its best estimate about the assumptions that market participants would make. These estimates may vary from the actual prices that would be achieved in an arm’s length transaction at the reporting date.

Impairment of Trade Receivables

The impairment for trade receivables are done based on assumptions about risk of default and expected loss rates. The assumptions, selection of inputs for calculation of impairment are based on management judgement considering the past history, market conditions and forward looking estimates at the end of each reporting date.

Impairment of Non-financial assets (PPE/ Intangible Assets)

The impairment of non-financial assets is determined based on estimation of recoverable amount of such assets. The assumptions used in computing the recoverable amount are based on management judgement considering the timing of future cash flows, discount rates and the risks specific to the asset.

Defined Benefit Plans and Other long term employee benefits

The cost of the defined benefit plan and other long term employee benefits, and the present value of such obligation are determined by the independent actuarial valuer. An actuarial valuation involves making various assumptions that may differ from actual developments in future. Management believes that the assumptions used by the actuary in determination of the discount rate, future salary increases, mortality rates and attrition rates are reasonable. Due to the complexities involved in the valuation and its long term nature, this obligation is highly sensitive to changes in these assumptions. All assumptions are reviewed at each reporting date.

Fair value measurement of financial instruments

When the fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities could not be measured based on quoted prices in active markets, management uses valuation techniques including the Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) model, to determine its fair value The inputs to these models are taken from observable markets where possible, but where this is not feasible, a degree of judgement is exercised in establishing fair values. Judgements include considerations of inputs such as liquidity risk, credit risk and volatility.

Provisions and contingencies

The recognition and measurement of other provisions are based on the assessment of the probability of an outflow of resources, and on past experience and circumstances known at the reporting date. The actual outflow of resources at a future date may therefore vary from the figure estimated at end of each reporting period.

2B Recent accounting pronouncements Standards issued but not yet effective

The following standards have been notified by Ministry of Corporate Affairs

a. Ind AS 115 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers (effective from April 1, 2018)

b. Ind AS 116 - Leases (effective from April 1, 2019)

The sensitivity analysis includes only outstanding foreign currency denominated monetary items and adjusts their translation at the period end for a 2% change in foreign currency rates.

In management’s opinion, the sensitivity analysis is unrepresentative of the inherent foreign exchange risk because of the existing i I exchange earning capacity of the company on account of its EOU status (Export oriented undertaking) and higher proportion of earnings in foreign exchange through exports.

Interest rate risk management

The Company is exposed to interest rate risk because it borrows funds at both fixed and floating interest rates. The risk is I managed by the Company by maintaining an appropriate mix between fixed and floating rate borrowings. Hedging activities are I 1 evaluated regularly to align with interest rate views and defined risk appetite, ensuring the most cost-effective hedging strategies I are applied. Further, in appropriate cases, the Company also effects changes in the borrowing arrangements to convert floating i interest rates to fixed interest rates.

Interest rate sensitivity analysis

The sensitivity analysis below have been determined based on the exposure to interest rates for non-derivative instruments at the j end of the reporting period. For floating rate liabilities, the analysis is prepared assuming the amount of the liability outstanding at j | the end of the reporting period was outstanding for the whole year. A 25 basis point increase or decrease is used when reporting j interest rate risk internally to key management personnel and represents management’s assessment of the reasonably possible | change in interest rates.

The 25 basis point interest rate changes will impact the profitability by INR 793.81 Lakhs for the year (Previous INR 884.94 Lakhs)

As the quantum of debt which will be continued to be serviced is yet to be determined as on March 31,2018 on account of CIRP j i ! proceedings pending for approval before NCLT, the interest rate sensitivity analysis for the existing quantum of debt may not j represent any reasonable situation.

Credit risk management

Credit risk arises when a customer or counterparty does not meet its obligations under a customer contract or financial instru- | i ment, leading to a financial loss. The Company is exposed to credit risk from its operating activities primarily trade receivables j and from its financing/ investing activities, including deposits with banks and foreign exchange transactions. The Company has j no significant concentration of credit risk with any counterparty.

Exposure to credit risk

The carrying amount of financial assets represents the maximum credit exposure. The maximum exposure is the total of the | | carrying amount of balances with banks, short term deposits with banks, trade receivables, margin money and other financial | assets excluding equity investments.

(a) Trade Receivables

! The Company has credit evaluation policy for each customer and, based on the evaluation, credit limit of each customer is de- I i | fined. Wherever the Company assesses the credit risk as high, the exposure is backed by either bank, guarantee/letter of credit j or security deposits.

I The Company does not have higher concentration of credit risks to a single customer. As per simplified approach, the Company j | i makes provision of expected credit losses on trade receivables using a provision matrix to mitigate the risk of default in payments | I and makes appropriate provision at each reporting date wherever outstanding is for longer period and involves higher risk.

(b) Investments, Cash and Cash Equivalents and Bank Deposits

Credit Risk on cash and cash equivalents, deposits with the banks/financial institutions is generally low as the said deposits have | I been made with the banks/financial institutions, who have been assigned high credit rating by international and domestic rating j agencies.

I | Credit Risk on Derivative Instruments is generally low as the Company enters into the Derivative Contracts with the reputed < I Banks.

i Investments of surplus funds are made only with approved banks/ financial institutions/ counterparty. Investments primarily j | | include bank deposits, etc. These bank deposits and counterparties have low credit risk. The Company has standard operating | i procedures and investment policy for deployment of surplus liquidity, which allows investment in bank deposit and restricts the j exposure in equity markets.

Offsetting related disclosures

Offsetting of cash and cash equivalents to borrowings as per the bank agreement is available only to the bank in the event of a | | default. Company does not have the right to offset in case of the counter party’s bankruptcy, therefore, these disclosures are not | | required.

Liquidity risk management

| Liquidity risk refers to the risk that the Company cannot meet its financial obligations. The objective of liquidity risk management | j is to maintain sufficient liquidity and ensure that funds are available for use as per requirements. The Company invests its surplus j I funds in bank fixed deposits, which carry minimal mark to market risks. The Company also constantly monitors funding options i i available in the debt and capital markets with a view to maintaining financial flexibility.

Liquidity tables

I The following tables detail the Company’s remaining contractual maturity for its non-derivative financial liabilities with agreed 1 repayment periods. The tables have been drawn up based on the undiscounted cash flows of financial liabilities based on the i earliest date on which the Company can be required to pay.

6 Retirement benefit plans Defined contribution plans

In accordance with Indian law, eligible employees of the Company are entitled to receive benefits in respect of Gratuity fund, a defined contribution plan, in which both employees and the Company make monthly contributions at a specified percentage of the covered employees’ salary. The contributions, as specified under the law, are made to the Provident fund, Gratuity fund, Superannuation fund as well as Employee State Insurance Fund.

The total expense recognised in profit or loss of Rs 777.87 Lakhs (for the year ended March 31, 2017: Rs. 437.96 Lakhs) represents contribution paid to these plans by the Company at rates specified in the rules of the plan.

Defined benefit plans

(a) Gratuity

Gratuity is payable as per Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972. In terms of the same, gratuity is computed by multiplying last drawn salary (basic salary including dearness Allowance if any) by completed years of continuous service with part thereof in excess of six months and again by 15/26. The Act provides for a vesting period of 5 years for withdrawal and retirement and a monetary ceiling on gratuity payable to an employee on separation, as may be prescribed under the Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972, from time to time. However, in cases where an enterprise has more favourable terms in this regard the same has been adopted.

Sensitivity analysis

In view of the fact that the Company for preparing the sensitivity analysis considers the present value of the defined benefit obligation which has been calculated using the projected unit credit method at the end of the reporting period, which is the same as that applied in calculating the defined benefit obligation liability recognised in the balance sheet.

(b) Compensated absences

The leave scheme is a final salary defined benefit plan, that provides for a lumpsum payment at the time of separation; based on scheme rules the benefits are calculated on the basis of last drawn salary and the leave count at the time of separation and paid as lumpsum.

The above provisions are reflected under ‘Provision for employee benefits- leave encashment’ (long-term provisions) [Refer note 20] and ‘Provision for employee benefits - leave encashment’ (short-term provisions) [Refer note 25].

7 First-time adoption of Ind AS Transition to Ind AS These are the Company’s first financial statements prepared in accordance with Ind AS.

The accounting policies set out in Note 3 have been applied in preparing the financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2018, the comparative information presented in these financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2017 and in the preparation of an opening Ind AS balance sheet at April 1, 2016 (The company’s date of transition).

In preparing its opening Ind AS balance sheet, the company has adjusted the amounts reported previously in financial statements prepared in accordance with the accounting standards generally applicable to the Company (as amended from time to time) and other relevant provisions of the Act (previous GAAP or Indian GAAP).

An explanation of how the transition from previous GAAP to Ind AS has affected the Company’s financial position, financial performance and cash flows is set out in the following tables and notes.

A. Exemptions and exceptions availed

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

A.1 Ind AS optional exemptions

A.1.1 Deemed cost for PPE and Intangibles

Ind AS 101 permits a first-time adopter to elect to fair value a class of property, plant and equipment or to continue with the carrying value for all of its PPE as recognised in the financial statements as at the date of transition to Ind AS, measured as per the previous GAAP and use that as its deemed cost as at the date of transition after making necessary adjustments for de-commissioning liabilities.

Accordingly, the company has elected to continue to measure the property, plant and equipment at their previous GAAP carrying values.

A.1.2. Deemed cost for Intangible Assets

Ind AS 101 permits a first-time adopter to elect to fair value the intangible assets or to continue with the carrying value as per the previous GAAP as deemed cost on the date of transition

The company has elected to continue the carrying value on the date of transition as per previous GAAP as deemed cost.

A.1.3. Designation of previously recognised financial instruments

Ind AS 101 allows an entity to designate investments in equity instruments at FVOCI or FVTPL on the basis of the facts and circumstances at the date of transition to Ind AS. The company has elected to apply this exemption for its investment in equity investments.

A.1.4. Leases

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

A.1.5. Business Combinations before the date of transition

As per Ind AS 101, a first time adopter of Ind AS may elect not to apply Ind AS 103 “Business Combinations” retrospectively in respect of business combinations that occurred before the date of transition to Ind AS. The company has elected to apply this exemption for the business combinations that occured prior to April 1, 2016.

A.2 Ind AS mandatory exceptions

A.2.1 Estimates

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

Ind AS estimates as at April 1, 2016 are consistent with the estimates as at the same date made in conformity with previous GAAP. The company made estimates for impairment of financial assets based on expected credit loss model in accordance with Ind AS at the date of transition as these were not required under previous GAAP.

B. Notes to first-time adoption

B.1 Fair valuation of financial assets and liabilities

Under Ind AS, financial assets and liabilities are to be valued at amortised cost or fair valued through profit and loss (FVTPL) or fair valued through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI) based on the Company’s business objectives and the cash flow characteristics of the underlying financial assets and liabilities. The Company has remeasured the financial assets and liabilities as on the date of transition and the consequential impact has been given in the opening retained earnings.

B.2 Allowance for expected credit loss on trade receivables

As per Ind AS 109, the company is required to apply expected credit loss model for recognising the allowance for doubtful debts. As a result, the total equity as at March 31, 2017 decreased by Rs. 308.69 lakhs and profit for the year ended March 31, 2017 decreased by Rs. 308.69 lakhs.

B.3 Straight-lining of rental expense

As per Ind AS 17, in the case of operating leases, lease payments are recognised as an expense on a straight-line basis unless another systematic basis is representative of the time pattern of the user’s benefit, even if the payments are not on that basis. Accordingly, the company has re-measured the rental expense for the year on a straight-line basis.

B.4 Remeasurement of post-employment benefit obligations

Under Ind AS, remeasurements i.e. actuarial gains and losses and the return on plan assets, excluding amounts included in the net interest expense on the net defined benefit liability are recognised in other comprehensive income instead of profit or loss. Under the previous GAAP, these remeasurements were forming part of the profit or loss for the year. Adjustments have been made for such re-classifications/ remeasurements.

B.5 Income Tax relating to earlier years

As per Ind AS 101, the items not meeting the recognition criteria of an asset as per Ind AS are to be derecognised while preparing the opening Ind AS balance sheet with corresponding adjustment in the retained earnings. The company has assessed the tax balances and made the required adjustments as on April 1, 2016.

B.6 Deferred tax

Under Ind AS, the deferred tax asset and liabilities are required to be accounted based on balance sheet approach and also to be recognised on all adjustments considered in the opening Ind AS balance sheet. Accordingly, the Company has remeasured its deferred tax assets and liabilities as aforesaid and accounted in the Ind AS financial statements.

B.7 Excise duty

Under the previous GAAP, revenue from sale of products was presented exclusive of excise duty. Under Ind AS, revenue from sale of goods is presented inclusive of excise duty. The excise duty paid is presented on the face of the statement of profit and loss as part of expenses. This change has resulted in an increase in total revenue and total expenses for the year ended March 31, 2018 by Rs. 488.34 lakhs (previous year Rs. 1,093.25 lakhs). There is no impact on the total equity or profit as a result of this adjustment.

8 The net worth of all the subsidiaries as on the reporting date is negative. In the opinion of the management, these investments are strategic and long term in nature and hence no provision is considered necessary against the carrying value of investments in subsidiaries (net of provisions) aggregating to Rs. 12,369.90 Lakhs and the loans/ advances given to given to these subsidiaries (net of provisions) aggregating to Rs. 5,229.36 Lakhs.

9 The Company is in the process of carrying out a comprehensive confirmation and reconciliation of receivables, loans and advances given, payables, bank balances and other financial assets, the claims received from the employees, financial creditors (including excess/ short provision of interest, non-provision of penal interest by the Company considering the agreement reached by the joint lenders meeting) and operational creditors with the books of account.

Further, the Company is in the process of carrying out physical verification of fixed assets/ related reconciliation with the books of account and reconciliation of restatement account of foreign currency assets and liabilities.

Pending completion of the aforesaid comprehensive reconciliation, the possible impact, if any, is not presently determinable. Accordingly, no adjustment has been made in the financial statements.

10 The Committee of Creditors have favourably voted for the resolution plan proposed by one of the successful bidder, which has been filed by the RP with the Hon’ble NCLT. However, the final order of the Hon’ble NCLT is yet to be pronounced/ received by the Company.

Pending receipt of the aforesaid Order, no effect has been given in the financial statements for the possible adjustments, if any, required in the carrying amount of assets and liabilities, possible presentation and disclosure requirements,
