The standalone financial statements of the Company for the year ended March 31, 2023 were approved by the Board of Directors and authorized for issue on May 11, 2023.
Note 2: Statement of compliance
The Standalone financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS) as prescribed under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 read with the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 as amended and other relevant provisions of the Companies Act, 2013, as applicable and the guidelines issued by Securities and Exchange Board of India, to the extent applicable.
The accounting policies are applied consistently to all the periods presented in the standalone financial statements.
Basis of preparation and presentation
The standalone financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost convention on accrual basis except for certain financial instruments which are measured at fair value at the end of each reporting period, as explained in the relevant accounting policies mentioned. The financial statements are presented in H and all values are rounded to the nearest Lakhs except where otherwise stated."
Going concern
The Board of Directors have considered the financial position of the Company at March 31, 2023 and the projected cash flows and financial performance of the Company for at least twelve months from the date of standalone financial statements as well as planned cost and cash improvement actions, and believe that the plan for sustained profitability remains on course. The Board of Directors have taken actions to ensure that appropriate long-term cash resources are in place at the date of signing the accounts to fund the Company''s operations."
Recent accounting pronouncement
The Ministry of Corporate Affairs (""MCA"") notifies new standards or amendments to the existing standards under Companies (Indian
Accounting Standards) Rules as issued from time to time. On March 31 2023, MCA amended the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Amendment Rules, 2023, which are effective from annual period beginning on or after April 1, 2023. Details of which are given below:
Ind AS 107 - Financial instrument - The amendment substitutes the paragraph 21 - while presenting a Financial Statement an entity discloses material accounting policy information. Information about the measurement basis (or bases) for financial instruments used in preparing the financial statements is expected to be material accounting policy information. The Company has evaluated the amendment and there is no impact on its standalone financial statements.
Ind AS 1 - Presentation of financial statements - The standard requires the entities to disclose their material accounting policies rather than significant accounting policies, which forms the basis of making material judgements.
Ind AS 8 - Accounting policies, changes in accounting estimates and errors - The standard has introduced a definition of ''accounting estimates'' and included appropriate amendments to help entities distinguish changes in accounting policies from change in accounting estimates.
Ind AS 12 - Income Taxes - The standard has narrowed the scope of initial recognition exemption so that it does not applytotransactions that give rise to equal and offsetting temporary differences. The Group has evaluated the aforementioned amendments and there is no material impact on the standalone financial statements."
The preparation of standalone financial statements in conformity with Ind AS requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amount of assets, liabilities, income, expenses and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of these standalone financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses for the years presented. Actual results may differ from the estimates.
In the process of applying the Company''s accounting policies, management has made the following judgements, which have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the standalone financial statements:
The Company reviews the useful life of property, plant and equipment at the end of each reporting period. This reassessment may result in change in depreciation expense in future periods.
The Company determines whether a property qualifies as an investment property, and has developed criteria in making that judgement. Investment property is a property held to earn rentals or for capital appreciation or both. Therefore, the Company considers whether a property generates cash flows largely independently of the other assets held by the Company. Some properties comprise a portion that is held to earn rentals or for capital appreciation and another portion that is held for use in the production or supply of goods or services or for administrative purposes. If these portions could be sold separately or leased out separately under a finance lease, the Company accounts for the portions separately. If the portions could not be sold separately, the property is an investment property only if an insignificant portion is held for use in the production or supply of goods or services or for administrative purposes. Judgement is made on an individual property basis to determine whether ancillary services are so significant that a property does not qualify as an investment property.
The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year, are described below. The Company based its assumptions and estimates on parameters available when the standalone financial statements were prepared. Existing circumstances and assumptions about future developments, however, may change due to market changes or circumstances arising that are beyond the control of the Company. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed at each balance sheet date. Such changes are reflected in the assumptions when they occur.
i) Income taxes
The Company is subject to income tax laws as applicable in India. Significant judgment is required in determining provision for income taxes. There are many transactions and calculations for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain during the ordinary course of business. The Company recognizes liabilities for anticipated tax issues based on estimates of whether additional taxes will be due. Where the final tax outcome of these matters is different from the amounts that were initially recorded, such differences will impact the income tax and deferred tax provisions in the period in which such determination is made.
ii) Contingencies
Contingent liabilities may arise from the ordinary course of business in relation to claims against the
Company, including legal and other claims. By virtue of their nature, contingencies will be resolved only when one or more uncertain future events occur or fail to occur. The assessment of the existence, and potential quantum, of contingencies inherently involves the exercise of significant judgements and the use of estimates regarding the outcome of future events.
iii) Recoverability of deferred taxes
In assessing the recoverability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the losses can be utilized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which the temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies in making this assessment.
iv) Defined benefit plans
The present value of the gratuity and compensated absences are determined using actuarial valuations. An actuarial valuation involves making various assumptions that may differ from actual developments in the future. These include the determination of the discount rate, future salary increases and mortality rates. Due to the complexities involved in the valuation and its long-term nature, a defined benefit obligation is highly sensitive to changes in these assumptions. All assumptions are reviewed at each reporting date.
The parameter most subject to change is the discount rate. In determining the appropriate discount rate for plans operated in India, the management considers the interest rates of government bonds in currencies consistent with the currencies of the post-employment benefit obligation. The mortality rate is based on publicly available mortality tables for the specific countries. Those mortality tables tend to change only at interval in response to demographic changes.
v) Impairment of long lived assets
The evaluation of applicability of indicators of impairment of assets requires assessment of several external and internal factors which could result in deterioration of recoverable amount of the assets. The Company assesses impairment of long lived assets which are recorded at cost. At the time when there are any indications that such assets have suffered a loss, if any, is recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
vi) Uncertainty relating to the global health pandemic on Covid-19
In assessing the recoverability of receivables, goodwill, PPE, intangible assets, and certain investments, the
Company has considered relevant internal business projections, cash flows, and external information available up to the date of approval of these standalone financial statements. The Company has performed sensitivity analysis on the assumptions used herein. Based on the current indicators of future economic conditions, the Company expects to recover the carrying amount of these assets. The Company basis its assessment believes that the probability of the occurrence of forecasted transactions is not impacted by Covid-19. The Company has also considered the effect of changes, if any, in both counterparty credit risk and own credit risk while assessing hedge effectiveness and measuring hedge ineffectiveness and continues to believe that there is no impact on effectiveness of its hedges. The impact of Covid-19 remains uncertain and may be different from what the Company has estimated as of the date of approval of these standalone financial statements and the Company will continue to closely monitor any material changes to future economic conditions.
vi) Employee stock option plan
Estimating fair value for share-based payment transactions requires determination of the most appropriate valuation model, which depends on the terms and conditions of the grant. This estimate also requires determination of the most appropriate inputs to the valuation model including the expected life of the share option or appreciation right, volatility and dividend yield and making assumptions about them. The Company initially measures the cost of cash-settled transactions with employees using a Black Scholes model to determine the fair value of the liability incurred. For cash-settled share-based payment transactions, the liability needs to be remeasured at the end of each reporting period up to the date of settlement, with any changes in fair value recognised in profit or loss. This requires a reassessment of the estimates used at the end of each reporting period. For the measurement of the fair value of equity-settled transactions with employees at the grant date, the Company uses a Black Scholes model. The assumptions and models used for estimating fair value for share-based payment transactions are disclosed in Note 44.
vii) Provision for expected credit losses (ECL) on trade receivables
"The Company uses a provision matrix to calculate ECLs for trade receivables. The provision rates are based on days past due for groupings of various customer segments that have similar loss patterns (i.e., by product type and customer type). The provision matrix is initially based on the Company''s
historical observed default rates. The Company will calibrate the matrix to adjust the historical credit loss experience with forward-looking information. For instance, if forecast economic condition (i.e., gross domestic products) are expected to deteriorate over the next year which can lead to an increased number of defaults in the manufacturing sector, the historical default rates are adjusted. At each reporting date, the historical observed default rates are updated and changes in the forward-looking estimates are analysed. The assessment of the correlation among historical observed default rates, forecast economic conditions and ECLs is a significant estimate. The amount of ECLs is sensitive to changes in circumstances and forecast economic conditions. The Company''s historical credit loss experience and forecast of economic conditions may also not be representative of customer''s actual default in the future. The information about the ECLs on the Company''s trade receivables is disclosed in note 12 to the standalone financial statements."
The Company presents assets and liabilities in the balance
sheet based on a current/ non-current classification.
An asset is treated as current when it is:
i) Expected to be realized or intended to be sold or consumed in normal operating cycle.
ii) Held primarily for the purpose of trading
iii) Expected to be realized within twelve months after the reporting period, or
iv) Cash or cash equivalent unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period. All other assets are classified as non-current. "
A liability is current when:
i) It is expected to be settled in normal operating cycle
ii) It is held primarily for the purpose of trading
iii) It is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period, or
iv) There is no unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period All other liabilities are classified as non-current.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as noncurrent assets and liabilities.
Property, plant and equipment, capital work in progress are stated at costless accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. Such cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset. An item of property, plant and equipment and any significant part initially recognized is de-recognized upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use. Any gain or loss arising on de-recognition of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in the statement of profit and loss within other income or expense (as applicable).
Subsequent Costs: The cost of replacing a part of an item of property, plant and equipment is recognized in the carrying amount of the item of property, plant and equipment, if it is probable that the future economic benefits embodied within the part will flow to the Company and its cost can be measured reliably with the carrying amount of the replaced part getting derecognized. The cost for day-to-day servicing of property, plant and equipment are recognized in statement of profit and loss as and when incurred.
Decommissioning Costs : The present value of expected cost for the decommissioning of an asset after its use is included in the cost of the respective asset if the recognition criteria for a provision are met.
Capital work in progress: Capital work in progress comprises the cost of fixed assets that are not ready for their intended use at the reporting date.
Depreciation: Depreciation on PPE, except leasehold improvements, is provided on straight-line method over the useful lives of assets as per Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013. Depreciation for assets purchased / sold during a period is proportionately charged to Statement of Profit and Loss. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the lease term or the remaining useful life of the assets whichever is lower.
The estimated useful lives of items of property, plant and equipment are as follows:
Asset |
Useful life |
Furniture and fixtures |
10 years |
Office equipment''s |
5 years |
Vehicles |
8 years |
Electrical installations and equipment''s |
10 years |
Building |
60 years |
Computers |
3 years |
Freehold land is not depreciated. |
(i) Recognition and measurement
Investment property is property held either to earn rental income or for capital appreciation or for both, but not for sale in the ordinary course of business, use in the production or supply of goods or services or for administrative purposes. Investment property comprises freehold land and building.
Investment properties are measured initially at cost, including transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, investment properties are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment loss, if any.
The Company measures investment property using cost based measurement and the fair value of investment property is disclosed in the notes. Fair values are determined based on an annual evaluation performed by an accredited external independent valuer.
Investment properties are derecognized either when they have been disposed of or when they are permanently withdrawn from use and no future economic benefit is expected from their disposal. The difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset is recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss in the period of derecognition.
(ii) Depreciation
Depreciation on Investment Property (except freehold land) is provided, under the Straight Line Method, pro rata to the period of use, based on useful lives specified in Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013. Freehold land is not depreciated. (Refer table above)
Recognition and measurement
Intangible assets that are acquired by the Company are measured initially at cost. Intangible assets with finite useful lives are measured at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses, if any.
Amortization: Intangible assets, with infinite lives, are amortized over their respective individual estimated useful lives on a straight-line basis, commencing from the date the assets are available to the Company for their use. In case of the trade mark capitalized, the Company is amortizing it over period of 5 years from the date of capitalization. Specialized softwares are amortized over a period of 5 years or license period whichever is earlier.
Borrowing costs consists of interest and amortization of ancillary costs that an entity incurs in connection with the
borrowing of funds. Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of an asset that necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use or sale are capitalized as part of the cost of the asset. All other borrowing costs are expensed in the period in which they occur. Borrowing costs consist of interest and other costs that an entity incurs in connection with the borrowing of funds. Borrowing cost also includes exchange differences to the extent regarded as an adjustment to the borrowing costs.
Interest income earned on the temporary investment of specific borrowings pending their expenditure on qualifying assets is deducted from the borrowing costs eligible for capitalization.
The Company''s standalone financial statements are presented in Indian Rupees (H) which is also the Company''s functional currency. Functional currency is the currency of the primary economic environment in which a Company operates and is normally the currency in which the Company primarily generates and expends cash. All the financial information presented in H in lakhs except where otherwise stated.
Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency of the Company at the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions or an average rate if the average rate approximates the actual rate at the date of the transaction.
Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rate at the reporting date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rate when the fair value was determined. Nonmonetary assets and liabilities that are measured in terms of historical cost are not retranslated.
Revenue from contracts with customers is recognized when control of the goods or services are transferred to the customer at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Revenue excludes value added tax or other sales taxes and is after deduction of any trade discounts.
When the consideration in a contract includes a variable amount, the amount of consideration is estimated to which the Company will be entitled in exchange for
transferring the goods or services to the customer. The variable consideration is estimated at contract inception and constrained until it is highly probable that a significant revenue reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the associated uncertainty with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved.
The Company does not expect to have any contracts where the period between the transfer of the promised goods or services to the customer and payment by the customer exceeds one year. As a consequence, it does not adjust any of the transaction prices for the time value of money. The Company recognises revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. A 5-step approach is used to recognise revenue as below:
Step 1: Identify the contract(s) with a customer Step 2: Identify the performance obligation in contract Step 3: Determine the transaction price Step 4: Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract
Step 5: Recognise revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligationâ
Income from corporate and sourcing support services rendered to group companies are recognized as the services are rendered based on a cost plus mark-up in accordance with the terms of respective arrangements.
â Unbilled revenue'' included in other financial assets represent revenue in excess of billings as of the Balance Sheet date. âUnearned revenues'' included in financial liabilities represent billing in excess of revenue recognized.
Revenue is recognised when a customer obtains control of the goods which is ordinarily upon shipment or delivery at the customer premises and on completion of performance obligation. Revenue is recognised at a transaction price allocated to the extent of performance obligation satisfied 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, etc. For certain contracts that permit the customer to return an item, revenue is recognised to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognised will not occur. As a consequence, for those contracts for which the Company is unable to make a reasonable estimate of return, revenue is recognised when the return period lapses or a reasonable estimate can be made.
Rental income is recognized when services are rendered and same becomes chargeable. Service Income comprises amounts billed for leasing out the property and other support services rendered to entities in accordance with terms of agreements entered into with them.
i) I nterest income from a financial asset is recognized when it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Company and the amount of income can be measured reliably. Interest income is accrued on a time basis, by reference to the principal outstanding and at the effective interest rate applicable, which is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset to that asset''s net carrying amount on initial recognition.
ii) Dividend income is recognized when the right to receive payment is established.
iii) Any other income is recognized on an accrual basis. Export incentives
Export incentives are recognized as income when the Company is entitled to the incentive as per the terms of the scheme in respect of the exports made and where it is probable that the Company will collect such incentive proceeds.
The Company assesses at contract inception whether a contract is, or contains, a lease. A contract is, or contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration.
The Company applies a single recognition and measurement approach for all leases, except for short-term leases and leases of low-value assets. The Company recognizes lease liabilities to make lease payments and right-of-use assets representing the right to use the underlying assets.
(a) Right-of-use assets
Right-of-use assets are recognized at the commencement date of the lease (that is the date the underlying asset is available for use). Right-of-use assets are measured at cost, less any accumulated depreciation and any impairment losses, and adjusted for any remeasurement of lease liabilities. The cost of right-of-use assets includes the amount of lease liabilities recognized, initial direct costs incurred, and lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received. Right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the lease terms and the estimated useful lives of the assets.
If ownership of the leased asset transfers to the Company by the end of the lease term or the cost reflects the exercise of a purchase option, depreciation is calculated using the estimated useful life of the asset.
(b) Lease liabilities
Lease liabilities are recognized at the commencement date of the lease at the present value of lease payments to be made over the lease term. The lease payments include fixed payments (including in-substance fixed payments) less any lease incentives receivable, variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, and amounts expected to be paid under residual value guarantees. The lease payments also include the exercise price of a purchase option reasonably certain to be exercised by the Company and payments of penalties for termination of a lease, if the lease term reflects the Company exercising the option to terminate. The variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or a rate are recognized as an expense in the period in which the event or condition that triggers the payment occurs.
In calculating the present value of lease payments, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate at the lease commencement date because the interest rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable. After the commencement date, the amount of lease liabilities is increased to reflect the accretion of interest and reduced for the lease payments made. In addition, the carrying amount of lease liabilities is remeasured if there is a modification, a change in the lease term, a change in lease payments (e.g., a change to future lease payments resulting from a change in an index or rate) or a change in assessment of an option to purchase the underlying asset.
(c) Short term leases
The Company applies the short-term lease recognition exemption to its short-term leases of machinery and equipment (that is those leases that have a lease term of 12 months or less from the commencement date and do not contain a purchase option). It also applies the recognition exemption for leases of low-value assets to leases of office equipment and laptop computers that are considered to be of low value. Lease payments on short-term leases and leases of low-value assets are recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
When the Company acts as a lessor, it classifies at lease inception (or when there is a lease modification) each of its leases as either an operating lease or a finance lease. Leases in which the Company does not transfer
substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of an asset are classified as operating leases. When a contract contains lease and non-lease components, the Company allocates the consideration in the contract to each component on a relative standalone selling price basis. Rental income is accounted for on a straight-line basis over the lease terms and is included in revenue in the statement of profit or loss due to its operating nature. Initial direct costs incurred in negotiating and arranging an operating lease are added to the carrying amount of the leased asset and recognized over the lease term on the same basis as rental income. Contingent rents are recognized as revenue in the period in which they are earned.
Leases are classified as finance leases when substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership transfer from the Company to the lessee. At the inception of a finance lease, the cost of the leased asset is capitalized at the present value of the minimum lease payments and recorded together with the obligation, excluding the interest element, to reflect the purchase and financing. Assets held under capitalized finance leases, including prepaid land lease payments under finance leases, are included in property, plant and equipment, and depreciated over the shorter of the lease terms and the estimated useful lives of the assets. The finance costs of such leases are charged to the statement of profit or loss so as to provide a constant periodic rate of charge over the lease terms.
i) Employee''s benefits
Short term employee benefits
All employee benefits expected to be settled wholly within twelve months of rendering the service are classified as short-term employee benefits. When an employee has rendered service to the Company during an accounting period, the Company recognizes the undiscounted amount of short-term employee benefits expected to be paid in exchange for that service as an expense unless another Ind AS requires or permits the inclusion of the benefits in the cost of an asset. Benefits such as salaries, wages, bonus and ex-gratia etc. are recognized in Statement of profit and loss in the period in which the employee renders the related service.
Defined contribution plan
A defined contribution plan is a post-employment benefit plan under which an entity pays fixed contributions to a statutory authority and will have no legal or constructive obligation to pay further amounts. Provident Fund and Employee State Insurance Schemes are defined contribution plans and contributions paid / payable are recognized as an expense in the Statement of Profit and Loss
during the year in which the employee renders the related service.
Defined benefit plan
A defined benefit plan is a post-employment benefit plan otherthan a defined contribution plan. The Company has an obligation towards gratuity, a defined benefit retirement plan covering eligible employees. The plan provides for a lump sum payment to vested employees at retirement, death while in employment or on termination of employment of an amount based on the respective employee''s salary and the tenure of employment. The Company accounts for the liability for gratuity benefits payable in future based on an independent actuarial valuation report using the projected unit credit method as at the year end. â
The obligations are measured at the present value of the estimated future cash flows. The discount rate is generally based upon the market yields available on Government bonds at the reporting date with a term that matches that of the liabilities. Re-measurements, comprising actuarial gains and losses including, the effect of the changes to the asset ceiling (if applicable), is reflected immediately in Other Comprehensive Income in the Statement of Profit and Loss. All other expenses related to defined benefit plans are recognized in Statement of Profit and Loss as employee benefit expenses. Gains or losses on the curtailment or settlement of any defined benefit plan are recognized when the curtailment or settlement occurs.
Other long term benefits
Long term compensated absences are provided for on the basis of actuarial valuation, using the projected unit credit method, at the end of each financial year. Actuarial gains/ losses, if any, are recognized immediately in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
The Company has equity-settled share-based remuneration plans for its employees. Where employees are rewarded using share-based payments, the fair value of employees'' services is determined indirectly by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments granted. This fair value is appraised at the grant date and excludes the impact of non-market vesting conditions (for example profitability and sales growth targets and performance conditions).
All share-based remuneration is ultimately recognised as an expense in profit or loss with a corresponding credit to equity. If vesting periods or other vesting
conditions apply, the expense is allocated over the vesting period, based on the best available estimate of the number of share options expected to vest. Upon exercise of share options, the proceeds received, net of any directly attributable transaction costs, are allocated to share capital up to the nominal (or par) value of the shares issued with any excess being recorded as share premium.â
For cash-settled share-based payments, the fair value of the amount payable to employees is recognised as employee benefits expense with a corresponding increase in liabilities, over the vesting period. The liability is remeasured at each reporting period up to, and including the settlement date, with changes in fair value recognised in employee benefits expense.
The Company has created an Employee Benefit Trust for providing share-based payment to its employees. The Company uses the Trust as a vehicle for distributing shares to employees under the employee remuneration schemes. The Trust buys shares of the Company from the market, for giving sharesto employees.The CompanytreatsTrust as its extension and shared held by the Trust are treated as treasury stock. Own equity instruments that are reacquired (treasury stock) are recognised at cost and deducted from Equity. No gain or loss is recognised in profit and loss on the purchase, sale, issue or cancellation of the Group''s own equity instruments. Any difference between the carrying amount and the consideration, if reissued, is recognised in capital reserve. Share options exercised during the reporting year are satisfied with treasury shares.
Where stock options are issued to employees of subsidiaries/ step down subsidiaries, and such subsidiary/ step down subsidiary does not have an obligation to settle the transaction, the transaction is treated as a parent''s equity contribution to the subsidiary/ step down subsidiary and presented as âdeemed investment'' under investment in subsidiaries.
Provisions are recognized when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past events and 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. If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre-tax rate that reflects, when appropriate, the risks specific to the liability. When discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognized as a finance cost.
Contingent liability is disclosed in the case of;
i) a present obligation arising from past events, when it is not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle obligation;
ii) a present obligation arising from past events, when no reliable estimate is possible.
Contingent assets are neither recognized nor disclosed. However, when realization of income is virtually certain, related asset is recognized.
Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets are reviewed at each balance sheet date and adjusted where necessary to reflect the current best estimate of obligation or asset.
A financial instrument is a contract that gives rise to a financial asset for one entity and a financial liability or equity instrument for another entity. Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognized when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instruments.
(i) Initial recognition and measurement
Trade receivables are initially recognized when they are originated. All other financial assets and financial liabilities are initially recognized when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
All financial assets are recognized initially at fair value, plus in the case of financial assets not recorded at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL), transaction costs that are attributable to the acquisition of the financial assets. However, trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component are measured at transaction price.
(ii) Classification and subsequent measurement
For purposes of subsequent measurement, financial assets are classified in following categories:
- Financial asset carried at amortized cost
- Financial asset at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI)
- Financial asset at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL)
Financial assets are not reclassified subsequent to their initial recognition, except if and in the period the Company changes its business model for managing financial assets.
⢠Financial assets carried at amortized cost
A financial asset is subsequently measured at amortized 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.
⢠Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income
A financial asset is subsequently measured at fair value through other comprehensive income if it is held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets 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.
⢠Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
A financial asset which is not classified in any of the above categories are subsequently fair valued through profit or loss.
⢠Equity investment
Investments representing equity interest in associates/ subsidiary are carried at cost less any provision for impairment. Investments are reviewed for impairment if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable.
De-recognition
A financial asset (or, where applicable, a part of a financial asset) is primarily derecognized (i.e. removed from the Company''s Balance Sheet) when:
(i) The contractual rights to receive cash flows from the asset has expired, or
(ii) The Company has transferred its contractual rights to receive cash flows from the financial asset or has assumed an obligation to pay the received cash flows in full without material delay to a third party under a âpass-through'' arrangement; and either (a) the Company has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, or (b) the Company has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, but has transferred control of the asset.
Initial recognition and measurement
Financial liabilities are classified, at initial recognition, as financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss. All financial liabilities are recognized initially at fair value and, in the case of loans and borrowings and
payables, net of directly attributable transaction costs. Subsequent measurement
For purposes of subsequent measurement, financial liabilities are classified in two categories:
- Financial liabilities at amortized cost
- Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss Loans and borrowings
Borrowings are initially recognized at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. After initial recognition, interest-bearing loans and borrowings are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the Effective Interest rate (EIR) method. Income and Expense are recognized in the statement of profit or loss when the liabilities are derecognized as well as through the EIR amortization process. Amortized 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 amortization is included as finance costs in the statement of profit and loss. This category generally applies to borrowings.
De-recognition
A financial liability is derecognized 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 de-recognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability. The difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognized in the statement of profit and loss.
Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the balance sheet if there is a currently enforceable legal right to offset the recognized amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis, to realize the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously
The Company applies the expected credit loss model for recognizing impairment loss on financial assets measured at amortized cost, debt instruments at FVTOCI, lease receivables, trade receivables, other contractual rights to receive cash or other financial asset, and financial guarantees not designated as at FVTPL.
Expected credit losses are the weighted average of credit
fair value measurement is based on the presumption that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability takes place either:
(a) In the principal market for the asset or liability, or
(b) In the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the asset or liabilityâ
All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the standalone financial statements are categorized within the fair value hierarchy, described as follows, based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole:
Level 1 â Quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level 2 â Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is directly or indirectly observable
Level 3 â Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is unobservable
For assets and liabilities that are recognized in the standalone financial statements on a recurring basis, the Company determines whether transfers have occurred between levels in the hierarchy by re-assessing categorization (based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole) at the end of each reporting period. The Company uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available to measure fair value, maximizing the use of relevant observable inputs and minimizing the use of unobservable inputs.
p) Taxes on income Current income tax
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.
Current income tax relating to items recognized outside profit or loss is recognized outside profit or loss (either in other comprehensive income (OCI) or in equity). Current tax items are recognized in correlation to the underlying transaction either in OCI or directly in equity. 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 are offset against current tax liabilities if, and only if, a legally enforceable right exists to set off the recognized amounts and there is an intention either to settle on a net basis, or to realize the asset and settle the
losses with the respective risks of default occurring as the weights. Credit loss is the difference between all contractual cash flows that are due to the Company in accordance with the contract and all the cash flows that the Company expects to receive (i.e. all cash shortfalls), discounted at the original effective interest rate (or credit-adjusted effective interest rate for purchased or originated credit-impaired financial assets). The Company estimates cash flows by considering all contractual terms of the financial instrument (for example, prepayment, extension, call and similar options) through the expected life of that financial instrument.
For trade receivables or any contractual right to receive cash or another financial asset that result from transactions that are within the scope of Ind AS 115 Revenue from contracts with customers, the Company applies simplified approach permitted by Ind AS 109 Financial Instruments, which requires expected life time losses to be recognized after initial recognition of receivables. For recognition of impairment loss on other financial assets and risk exposure, the Company determines whether there has been a significant increase in the credit risk since initial recognition. If credit risk has not increased significantly, twelve months ECL is used to provide for impairment loss. However, if credit risk has increased significantly, lifetime ECL is used. If, in a subsequent period, credit quality of the instrument improves such that there is no longer a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition, then the entity reverts to recognizing impairment loss allowance based on twelve-months ECL.
âNon- financial assets are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized 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 costs of disposal and value in use. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash inflows which are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets (cashgenerating units). Non- financial assets that suffered impairment are reviewed for possible reversal of the impairment at the end of each reporting period. If, at the reporting date there is an indication that a previously assessed impairment loss no longer exists, the recoverable amount is reassessed and the asset is reflected at the recoverable amount. Impairment losses previously recognized are accordingly reversed in the statement of profit and loss.
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The liability simultaneously.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the year when the asset is realized 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 assets are recognized for all deductible temporary differences, the carry forward of unused tax credits and any unused tax losses. Deferred tax assets are recognized 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 utilized.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each balance sheet date and is adjusted to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.
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 relating to items recognized outside profit or loss is recognized outside profit or loss (either in other comprehensive income or in equity). Deferred tax items are recognized 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.
Cash and cash equivalent in the Balance Sheet comprise cash at banks and on hand and short-term deposits with an original maturity of three months or less, which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. For the purpose of the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash balance on hand, cash balance at banks and short-term deposits, as defined above, net of outstanding bank overdrafts as they are considered an integral part of the Company''s cash management.
In determining earnings per share, the Company considers the net profit after tax and includes the post tax effect of any extra ordinary items.
- Basic earning per share is calculated 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 Earning per share, the number of shares comprises of weighted average shares considered for deriving basic earning per share and also the weighted average number of equity share which could have been issued on the conversion of all dilutive potential equity shares. Dilutive potential equity shares are deemed converted as of the beginning of the period, unless they have been issued at a later date. A transaction is considered to be antidilutive if its effect is to increase the amount of EPS, either by lowering the share count or increasing the earnings.
The Company has created an Employee Benefit Trust for providing share-based payment to its employees. The Company uses the Trust as a vehicle for distributing shares to employees under the employee remuneration schemes. The Trust buys shares of the Company from the market, for giving sharesto employees.The CompanytreatsTrust as its extension and shared held by the Trust are treated as treasury shares. Own equity instruments that are reacquired (treasury shares) are recognised at cost and deducted from Equity. No gain or loss is recognised in profit and loss on the purchase, sale, issue or cancellation of the Company''s own equity instruments. Any difference between the carrying amount and the consideration, if reissued, is recognised in capital reserve. Share options exercised during the reporting year are satisfied with treasury shares.
The Company has the policy of reporting the segments in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker. The Chief Operating Decision maker is considered to make strategic decisions and is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments.

Note 1: Corporate information
PDS Limited (Formerly PDS Multinational Fashions Limited) is a Public Limited Company (hereinafter referred as ''the Company'') domiciled in India and has its registered office at 758 & 759, 2nd Floor, 19th Main, HSR Layout, Sector-II, Bengaluru - 560102, Karnataka. The Company is engaged in trading of ready to wear apparels, providing services to group companies engaged in the export of ready to wear apparels and sourcing & distribution of their products. The Company is also engaged in the business of holding, owing, leasing or licensing real estate. The Company has its primary listings on the BSE Limited and the National Stock Exchange of India Limited.
The standalone financial statements of the Company for the year ended March 31,2022 were approved by the Board of Directors and authorized for issue on May 16, 2022.
Note 2: Statement of compliance
The Standalone financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS) as prescribed under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 read with the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 as amended and other relevant provisions of the Companies Act, 2013, as applicable.
The accounting policies are applied consistently to all the periods presented in the standalone financial statements.
The standalone financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost convention on accrual basis except for certain financial instruments which are measured at fair value at the end of each reporting period, as explained in the relevant accounting policies mentioned. The financial statements are presented in '' and all values are rounded to the nearest Lakhs except otherwise stated.
The Board of Directors have considered the financial position of the Company at March 31, 2022 and the projected cash flows and financial performance of the Company for at least twelve months from the date of standalone financial statements as well as planned cost and cash improvement actions, and believe that the plan for sustained profitability remains on course.
The Board of Directors have taken actions to ensure that appropriate long-term cash resources are in place at the date of signing the accounts to fund the Company''s operations.
Standards issued but not effective on Balance Sheet date; Ministry of Corporate Affairs (âMCAâ) notifies new standards or amendments to the existing standards under Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules as issued from time to time. On March 23, 2022, MCA amended the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Amendment Rules, 2022, as below.
Ind AS 109 - Financial Instruments
The amendment clarifies that the terms are substantially different if the discounted present value of the cash flows under the new terms, including any fees paid net of any fees received and discounted using the original effective interest rate, is at least 10 per cent different from the discounted present value of the remaining cash flows of the original financial liability. In determining those fees paid net of fees received, a borrower includes only fees paid or received between the borrower and the lender, including fees paid or received by either the borrower or lender on the otherâs behalf.
If an exchange of debt instruments or modification of terms is accounted for as an extinguishment, any costs or fees incurred are recognised as part of the gain or loss on the extinguishment. If the exchange or modification is not accounted for as an extinguishment, any costs or fees incurred adjust the carrying amount of the liability and are amortised over the remaining term of the modified liability.
Ind AS 16 - Property Plant and equipment - The amendment clarifies that excess of net sale proceeds of items produced over the cost of testing, if any, shall not be recognised in the profit or loss but deducted from the directly attributable costs considered as part of cost of an item of property, plant, and equipment. The Group has evaluated the amendment and there is no impact on its standalone financial statements.
Ind AS 37 - Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets - The amendment specifies that the âcost of fulfilling'' a contract comprises the âcosts that relate directly to the contract''. Costs that relate directly to a contract can either be incremental costs of fulfilling that contract (examples would be direct labour, materials) or an allocation of other costs that relate directly to fulfilling contracts (an example would be the allocation of the depreciation charge for an item of property, plant and equipment used in fulfilling the contract). The Group has evaluated the amendment and there is no impact on its standalone financial statements.
Note 3: Significant accounting policies a) Significant accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions
The preparation of standalone financial statements in conformity with Ind AS requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amount of assets, liabilities, income, expenses and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of these standalone financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses for the years presented. Actual results may differ from the estimates.
Judgements:
I n the process of applying the Company''s accounting policies, management has made the following judgements, which have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the standalone financial statements:
The Company reviews the useful life of property, plant and equipment at the end of each reporting period. This reassessment may result in change in depreciation expense in future periods.
The Company determines whether a property qualifies as an investment property, and has developed criteria in making that judgement. Investment property is a property held to earn rentals or for capital appreciation or both. Therefore, the Company considers whether a property generates cash flows largely independently of the other assets held by the Company. Some properties comprise a portion that is held to earn rentals or for capital appreciation and another portion that is held for use in the production or supply of goods or services or for administrative purposes. If these portions could be sold separately or leased out separately under a finance lease, the Company accounts for the portions separately. If the portions could not be sold separately, the property is an investment property only if an insignificant portion is held for use in the production or supply of goods or services or for administrative purposes. Judgement is made on an individual property basis to determine whether ancillary services are so significant that a property does not qualify as an investment property.
The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year, are described below. The Company based its assumptions and estimates on parameters available when the standalone financial statements were prepared. Existing circumstances and assumptions about future developments, however, may change due to market changes or circumstances arising that are beyond the control of the Company. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed at each balance sheet date. Such changes are reflected in the assumptions when they occur.
The Company is subject to income tax laws as applicable in India. Significant judgment is required in determining provision for income taxes. There are many transactions and calculations for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain during the ordinary course of business. The Company recognizes liabilities for anticipated tax issues based on estimates of whether additional taxes will be due. Where the final tax outcome of these matters is different from the amounts that were initially recorded, such differences will impact the income tax and deferred tax provisions in the period in which such determination is made.
Contingent liabilities may arise from the ordinary course of business in relation to claims against the Company, including legal and other claims. By virtue of their nature, contingencies will be resolved only when one or more uncertain future events occur or fail to occur. The assessment of the existence, and potential quantum, of contingencies inherently involves the exercise of significant judgements and the use of estimates regarding the outcome of future events.
In assessing the recoverability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the losses can be utilized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which the temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies in making this assessment.
The present value of the gratuity and compensated absences are determined using actuarial valuations. An actuarial valuation involves making various assumptions that may differ from actual developments in the future. These include the determination of the discount rate, future salary increases and mortality rates. Due to the complexities involved in the valuation and its long-term nature, a defined benefit obligation is highly sensitive to changes in these assumptions. All assumptions are reviewed at each reporting date.
The parameter most subject to change is the discount rate. In determining the appropriate discount rate for plans operated in India, the management considers the interest rates of government bonds in currencies consistent with the currencies of the post-employment benefit obligation. The mortality rate is based on publicly available mortality tables for the specific countries. Those mortality tables tend to change only at interval in response to demographic changes.
The evaluation of applicability of indicators of impairment of assets requires assessment of several external and internal factors which could result in deterioration of recoverable amount of the assets. The Company assesses impairment of long lived assets which are recorded at cost. At the time when there are any indications that such assets have suffered a loss, if any, is recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
The Company presents assets and liabilities in the balance sheet based on a current/ non-current classification.
An asset is treated as current when it is:
i) Expected to be realized or intended to be sold or consumed in normal operating cycle.
ii) Held primarily for the purpose of trading
iii) Expected to be realized within twelve months after the reporting period, or
iv) Cash or cash equivalent unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period. All other assets are classified as non-current.
A liability is current when:
i) It is expected to be settled in normal operating cycle
ii) It is held primarily for the purpose of trading
iii) I t is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period, or
iv) There is no unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period All other liabilities are classified as non-current.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as noncurrent assets and liabilities.
Property, plant and equipment, capital work in progress are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. Such cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset. An item of property, plant and equipment and any significant part initially recognized is de-recognized upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use. Any gain or loss arising on de-recognition of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in the statement of profit and loss within other income or expense (as applicable).
Subsequent Costs: The cost of replacing a part of an item of property, plant and equipment is recognized in the carrying amount of the item of property, plant and equipment, if it is probable that the future economic benefits embodied within the part will flow to the Company
and its cost can be measured reliably with the carrying amount of the replaced part getting derecognized. The cost for day-to-day servicing of property, plant and equipment are recognized in statement of profit and loss as and when incurred.
Decommissioning Costs : The present value of expected cost for the decommissioning of an asset after its use is included in the cost of the respective asset if the recognition criteria for a provision are met.
Capital work in progress: Capital work in progress comprises the cost of fixed assets that are not ready for their intended use at the reporting date.
Depreciation: Depreciation on PPE, except leasehold improvements, is provided on straight-line method over the useful lives of assets as per Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013. Depreciation for assets purchased / sold during a period is proportionately charged to Statement of Profit and Loss. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the lease term or the remaining useful life of the assets whichever is lower.
The estimated useful lives of items of property, plant and equipment are as follows:
Asset |
Useful life |
Furniture and fixtures |
10 years |
Office equipment''s |
5 years |
Vehicles |
8 years |
Electrical installations and equipment''s |
10 years |
Building |
60 years |
Computers |
3 years |
(i) Recognition and measurement
I nvestment property is property held either to earn rental income or for capital appreciation or for both, but not for sale in the ordinary course of business, use in the production or supply of goods or services or for administrative purposes. Investment property comprises freehold land and building.
I nvestment properties are measured initially at cost, including transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, investment properties are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment loss, if any.
The Company measures investment property using cost based measurement and the fair value of investment property is disclosed in the notes. Fair values are determined based on an annual evaluation performed by an accredited external independent valuer.
Investment properties are derecognized either when they have been disposed of or when they are permanently withdrawn from use and no future economic benefit is expected from their disposal. The difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset is recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss in the period of derecognition.
Depreciation on Investment Property (except freehold land) is provided, under the Straight Line Method, pro rata to the period of use, based on useful lives specified in Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013. Freehold land is not depreciated. (Refer table above)
Recognition and measurement
I ntangible assets that are acquired by the Company are measured initially at cost. Intangible assets with finite useful lives are measured at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses, if any.
Amortization: Intangible assets, with infinite lives, are amortized over their respective individual estimated useful lives on a straight-line basis, commencing from the date the assets are available to the Company for their use. In case of the trade mark capitalized, the Company is amortizing it over period of 5 years from the date of capitalization. Specialized softwares are amortized over a period of 5 years or license period whichever is earlier.
Borrowing costs consists of interest and amortization of ancillary costs that an entity incurs in connection with the borrowing of funds. Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of an asset that necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use or sale are capitalized as part of the cost of the asset. All other borrowing costs are expensed in the period in which they occur. Borrowing costs consist of interest and other costs that an entity incurs in connection with the borrowing of funds. Borrowing cost also includes exchange differences to the extent regarded as an adjustment to the borrowing costs.
I nterest income earned on the temporary investment of specific borrowings pending their expenditure on qualifying assets is deducted from the borrowing costs eligible for capitalization.
Functional and presentation currency
The Company''s standalone financial statements are presented in Indian Rupees (?) which is also the Company''s functional currency. Functional currency is the currency of the primary economic environment in which a Company
operates and is normally the currency in which the Company primarily generates and expends cash. All the financial information presented in '' in lakhs except where otherwise stated.
Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency of the Company at the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions or an average rate if the average rate approximates the actual rate at the date of the transaction.
Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rate at the reporting date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rate when the fair value was determined. Nonmonetary assets and liabilities that are measured in terms of historical cost are not retranslated.
Revenue from contracts with customers is recognized when control of the goods or services are transferred to the customer at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Revenue excludes value added tax or other sales taxes and is after deduction of any trade discounts.
When the consideration in a contract includes a variable amount, the amount of consideration is estimated to which the Company will be entitled in exchange for transferring the goods or services to the customer. The variable consideration is estimated at contract inception and constrained until it is highly probable that a significant revenue reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the associated uncertainty with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved.
The Company does not expect to have any contracts where the period between the transfer of the promised goods or services to the customer and payment by the customer exceeds one year. As a consequence, it does not adjust any of the transaction prices for the time value of money.
Income from corporate and sourcing support services rendered to group companies are recognized as the services are rendered based on a cost plus mark-up in accordance with the terms of respective arrangements.
â Unbilled revenue'' included in other financial assets represent revenue in excess of billings as of the Balance Sheet date. âUnearned revenues'' included
in financial liabilities represent billing in excess of revenue recognized.
Revenue from the sale of goods is recognized at point in time when controls of promised goods are transferred to the customer (i.e. upon satisfaction of performance obligation).
Rental income is recognized when services are rendered and same becomes chargeable. Service Income comprises amounts billed for leasing out the property and other support services rendered to entities in accordance with terms of agreements entered into with them.
i) I nterest income from a financial asset is recognized when it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Company and the amount of income can be measured reliably. Interest income is accrued on a time basis, by reference to the principal outstanding and at the effective interest rate applicable, which is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset to that asset''s net carrying amount on initial recognition.
ii) Dividend income is recognized when the right to receive payment is established.
iii) Any other income is recognized on an accrual basis. Export incentives
Export incentives are recognized as income when the Company is entitled to the incentive as per the terms of the scheme in respect of the exports made and where it is probable that the Company will collect such incentive proceeds.
The Company assesses at contract inception whether a contract is, or contains, a lease. A contract is, or contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration.
The Company applies a single recognition and measurement approach for all leases, except for short-term leases and leases of low-value assets. The Company recognizes lease liabilities to make lease payments and right-of-use assets representing the right to use the underlying assets.
Right-of-use assets are recognized at the commencement date of the lease (that is the date
the underlying asset is available for use). Right-of-use assets are measured at cost, less any accumulated depreciation and any impairment losses, and adjusted for any remeasurement of lease liabilities. The cost of right-of-use assets includes the amount of lease liabilities recognized, initial direct costs incurred, and lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received. Right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the lease terms and the estimated useful lives of the assets. If ownership of the leased asset transfers to the Company by the end of the lease term or the cost reflects the exercise of a purchase option, depreciation is calculated using the estimated useful life of the asset.
Lease liabilities are recognized at the commencement date of the lease at the present value of lease payments to be made over the lease term. The lease payments include fixed payments (including insubstance fixed payments) less any lease incentives receivable, variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, and amounts expected to be paid under residual value guarantees. The lease payments also include the exercise price of a purchase option reasonably certain to be exercised by the Company and payments of penalties for termination of a lease, if the lease term reflects the Company exercising the option to terminate. The variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or a rate are recognized as an expense in the period in which the event or condition that triggers the payment occurs.
I n calculating the present value of lease payments, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate at the lease commencement date because the interest rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable. After the commencement date, the amount of lease liabilities is increased to reflect the accretion of interest and reduced for the lease payments made. In addition, the carrying amount of lease liabilities is remeasured if there is a modification, a change in the lease term, a change in lease payments (e.g., a change to future lease payments resulting from a change in an index or rate) or a change in assessment of an option to purchase the underlying asset.
The Company applies the short-term lease recognition exemption to its short-term leases of machinery and equipment (that is those leases that have a lease term of 12 months or less from the commencement date and do not contain a purchase option). It also applies the recognition exemption for leases of low-value assets to leases of office equipment and laptop computers that are considered to be of low value.
Lease payments on short-term leases and leases of low-value assets are recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Company as a lessor
When the Company acts as a lessor, it classifies at lease inception (or when there is a lease modification) each of its leases as either an operating lease or a finance lease. Leases in which the Company does not transfer substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of an asset are classified as operating leases. When a contract contains lease and non-lease components, the Company allocates the consideration in the contract to each component on a relative standalone selling price basis. Rental income is accounted for on a straight-line basis over the lease terms and is included in revenue in the statement of profit or loss due to its operating nature. Initial direct costs incurred in negotiating and arranging an operating lease are added to the carrying amount of the leased asset and recognized over the lease term on the same basis as rental income. Contingent rents are recognized as revenue in the period in which they are earned.
Leases are classified as finance leases when substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership transfer from the Company to the lessee. At the inception of a finance lease, the cost of the leased asset is capitalized at the present value of the minimum lease payments and recorded together with the obligation, excluding the interest element, to reflect the purchase and financing. Assets held under capitalized finance leases, including prepaid land lease payments under finance leases, are included in property, plant and equipment, and depreciated over the shorter of the lease terms and the estimated useful lives of the assets. The finance costs of such leases are charged to the statement of profit or loss so as to provide a constant periodic rate of charge over the lease terms.
Short term employee benefits: All employee benefits expected to be settled wholly within twelve months of rendering the service are classified as short-term employee benefits. When an employee has rendered service to the Company during an accounting period, the Company recognizes the undiscounted amount of short-term employee benefits expected to be paid in exchange for that service as an expense unless another Ind AS requires or permits the inclusion of the benefits in the cost of an asset. Benefits such as salaries, wages, bonus and ex-gratia etc. are recognized in Statement of profit and loss in the period in which the employee renders the related service.
A defined contribution plan is a post-employment benefit plan under which an entity pays fixed contributions to a statutory authority and will have no legal or constructive obligation to pay further amounts. Provident Fund
and Employee State Insurance Schemes are defined contribution plans and contributions paid / payable are recognized as an expense in the Statement of Profit and Loss during the year in which the employee renders the related service.
A defined benefit plan is a post-employment benefit plan other than a defined contribution plan. The Company has an obligation towards gratuity, a defined benefit retirement plan covering eligible employees. The plan provides for a lump sum payment to vested employees at retirement, death while in employment or on termination of employment of an amount based on the respective employee''s salary and the tenure of employment. The Company accounts for the liability for gratuity benefits payable in future based on an independent actuarial valuation report using the projected unit credit method as at the year end.
The obligations are measured at the present value of the estimated future cash flows. The discount rate is generally based upon the market yields available on Government bonds at the reporting date with a term that matches that of the liabilities. Re-measurements, comprising actuarial gains and losses including, the effect of the changes to the asset ceiling (if applicable), is reflected immediately in Other Comprehensive Income in the Statement of Profit and Loss. All other expenses related to defined benefit plans are recognized in Statement of Profit and Loss as employee benefit expenses. Gains or losses on the curtailment or settlement of any defined benefit plan are recognized when the curtailment or settlement occurs.
Long term compensated absences are provided for on the basis of actuarial valuation, using the projected unit credit method, at the end of each financial year. Actuarial gains/ losses, if any, are recognized immediately in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
The Company has equity-settled share-based remuneration plans for its employees. Where employees are rewarded using share-based payments, the fair value of employees'' services is determined indirectly by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments granted. This fair value is appraised at the grant date and excludes the impact of non-market vesting conditions (for example profitability and sales growth targets and performance conditions).
All share-based remuneration is ultimately recognised as an expense in profit or loss with a corresponding credit to equity. If vesting periods or other vesting conditions apply, the expense is allocated over the vesting period, based on the best available estimate of the number of share options expected to vest.
Upon exercise of share options, the proceeds received, net of any directly attributable transaction costs, are allocated to share capital up to the nominal (or par) value of the shares issued with any excess being recorded as share premium.
For cash-settled share-based payments, the fair value of the amount payable to employees is recognised as employee benefits expense with a corresponding increase in liabilities, over the vesting period. The liability is remeasured at each reporting period up to, and including the settlement date, with changes in fair value recognised in employee benefits expense.
The Company has created an Employee Benefit Trust for providing share-based payment to its employees. The Company uses the Trust as a vehicle for distributing shares to employees under the employee remuneration schemes. The Trust buys shares of the Company from the market, for giving shares to employees. The Company treats Trust as its extension and shared held by the Trust are treated as treasury stock. Own equity instruments that are reacquired (treasury stock) are recognised at cost and deducted from Equity. No gain or loss is recognised in profit and loss on the purchase, sale, issue or cancellation of the Group''s own equity instruments. Any difference between the carrying amount and the consideration, if reissued, is recognised in capital reserve.
Where stock options are issued to employees of subsidiaries/ step down subsidiaries, and such subsidiary/ step down subsidiary does not have an obligation to settle the transaction, the transaction is treated as a parent''s equity contribution to the subsidiary/ step down subsidiary and presented as ''deemed investment'' under investment in subsidiaries.
Provisions are recognized when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past events and 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.
If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre-tax rate that reflects, when appropriate, the risks specific to the liability. When discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognized as a finance cost.
Contingent liability is disclosed in the case of;
i) a present obligation arising from past events, when it is not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle obligation;
ii) a present obligation arising from past events, when no reliable estimate is possible.
Contingent assets are neither recognized nor disclosed. However, when realization of income is virtually certain, related asset is recognized.
Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets are reviewed at each balance sheet date and adjusted where necessary to reflect the current best estimate of obligation or asset.
A financial instrument is a contract that gives rise to a financial asset for one entity and a financial liability or equity instrument for another entity. Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognized when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instruments.
(i) Initial recognition and measurement
Trade receivables are initially recognized when they are originated. All other financial assets and financial liabilities are initially recognized when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. A financial asset is initially recognized at fair value. In case of financial assets which are recognized at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL), its transaction cost are recognized in the statement of profit and loss. In other cases, the transaction cost are attributed to the acquisition value of the financial asset.
For purposes of subsequent measurement, financial assets are classified in following categories:
⢠Financial asset carried at amortized cost
⢠Financial asset at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI)
⢠Financial asset at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL)
Financial assets are not reclassified subsequent to their initial recognition, except if and in the period the Company changes its business model for managing financial assets.
A financial asset is subsequently measured at amortized 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.
A financial asset is subsequently measured at fair value through other comprehensive income if it is held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets 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.
A financial asset which is not classified in any of the above categories are subsequently fair valued through profit or loss.
Investments representing equity interest in associates/ subsidiary are carried at cost less any provision for impairment. Investments are reviewed for impairment if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable.
De-recognition
A financial asset (or, where applicable, a part of a financial
asset) is primarily derecognized (i.e. removed from the
Company''s Balance Sheet) when:
(i) The contractual rights to receive cash flows from the asset has expired, or
(ii) The Company has transferred its contractual rights to receive cash flows from the financial asset or has assumed an obligation to pay the received cash flows in full without material delay to a third party under a âpass-through'' arrangement; and either (a) the Company has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, or (b) the Company has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, but has transferred control of the asset.
Initial recognition and measurement Financial liabilities are classified, at initial recognition, as financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss. All financial liabilities are recognized initially at fair value and, in the case of loans and borrowings and payables, net of directly attributable transaction costs. The Company''s financial liabilities include trade and other payables, security deposits received etc.
Subsequent measurement
For purposes of subsequent measurement, financial liabilities are classified in two categories: - Financial liabilities at amortized cost - Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss.
Loans and borrowings
Borrowings are initially recognized at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. After initial recognition, interest-bearing loans and borrowings are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the Effective Interest rate (EIR) method. Income and Expense are recognized in the statement of profit or loss when the liabilities are derecognized as well as through the EIR amortization process. Amortized 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 amortization is included as finance costs in the statement of profit and loss. This category generally applies to borrowings.
De-recognition
A financial liability is derecognized 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 de-recognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability. The difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognized in the statement of profit and loss.
(c) Offsetting of financial instruments
Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the balance sheet if there is a currently enforceable legal right to offset the recognized amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis, to realize the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.
m) Impairment of financial assets
The Company applies the expected credit loss model for recognizing impairment loss on financial assets measured at amortized cost, debt instruments at FVTOCI, lease receivables, trade receivables, other contractual rights to receive cash or other financial asset, and financial guarantees not designated as at FVTPL.
Expected credit losses are the weighted average of credit losses with the respective risks of default occurring as the weights. Credit loss is the difference between all contractual cash flows that are due to the Company in accordance with the contract and all the cash flows that the Company expects to receive (i.e. all cash shortfalls), discounted at the original effective interest rate (or credit-adjusted effective interest rate for purchased or originated credit-impaired financial assets). The Company estimates
cash flows by considering all contractual terms of the financial instrument (for example, prepayment, extension, call and similar options) through the expected life of that financial instrument.
For trade receivables or any contractual right to receive cash or another financial asset that result from transactions that are within the scope of Ind AS 115 Revenue from contracts with customers, the Company applies simplified approach permitted by Ind AS 109 Financial Instruments, which requires expected life time losses to be recognized after initial recognition of receivables. For recognition of impairment loss on other financial assets and risk exposure, the Company determines whether there has been a significant increase in the credit risk since initial recognition. If credit risk has not increased significantly, twelve months ECL is used to provide for impairment loss. However, if credit risk has increased significantly, lifetime ECL is used. If, in a subsequent period, credit quality of the instrument improves such that there is no longer a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition, then the entity reverts to recognizing impairment loss allowance based on twelvemonths ECL.
Non- financial assets are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized 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 costs of disposal and value in use. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash inflows which are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets (cash-generating units). Non- financial assets that suffered impairment are reviewed for possible reversal of the impairment at the end of each reporting period. If, at the reporting date there is an indication that a previously assessed impairment loss no longer exists, the recoverable amount is reassessed and the asset is reflected at the recoverable amount. Impairment losses previously recognized are accordingly reversed in the statement of profit and loss.
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value measurement is based on the presumption that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability takes place either: (a) In the principal market for the asset or liability, or (b) In the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the asset or liability
All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the standalone financial statements are categorized within the fair value hierarchy, described as follows, based on the lowest level input that is
significant to the fair value measurement as a whole: Level 1 â Quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities Level 2 â Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is directly or indirectly observable Level 3 â Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is unobservable.
For assets and liabilities that are recognized in the standalone financial statements on a recurring basis, the Company determines whether transfers have occurred between levels in the hierarchy by re-assessing categorization (based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole) at the end of each reporting period. The Company uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available to measure fair value, maximizing the use of relevant observable inputs and minimizing the use of unobservable inputs.
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. Current income tax relating to items recognized outside profit or loss is recognized outside profit or loss (either in other comprehensive income (OCI) or in equity). Current tax items are recognized in correlation to the underlying transaction either in OCI or directly in equity. 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 are offset against current tax liabilities if, and only if, a legally enforceable right exists to set off the recognized amounts and there is an intention either to settle on a net basis, or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the year when the asset is realized 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 assets are recognized for all deductible temporary differences, the carry forward of unused tax credits and any unused tax losses. Deferred tax assets are recognized 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 utilized.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each balance sheet date and is adjusted to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.
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 relating to items recognized outside profit or loss is recognized outside profit or loss (either in other comprehensive income or in equity). Deferred tax items are recognized 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.
Cash and cash equivalent in the Balance Sheet comprise cash at banks and on hand and short-term deposits with an original maturity of three months or less, which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. For the purpose of the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash balance on hand, cash balance at banks and short-term deposits, as defined above, net of outstanding bank overdrafts as they are considered an integral part of the Company''s cash management.
In determining earnings per share, the Company considers the net profit after tax and includes the post tax effect of any extra ordinary items.
i) Basic earning per share is calculated 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.
ii) For the purpose of calculating Diluted Earning per share, the number of shares comprises of weighted average shares considered for deriving basic earning per share and also the weighted average number of equity share which could have been issued on the conversion of all dilutive potential equity shares. Dilutive potential equity shares are deemed converted as of the beginning of the period, unless they have been issued at a later date. A transaction is considered to be antidilutive if its effect is to increase the amount of EPS, either by lowering the share count or increasing the earnings.
The Company has created an Employee Benefit Trust for providing share-based payment to its employees. The Company uses the Trust as a vehicle for distributing shares to employees under the employee remuneration schemes. The Trust buys shares of the Company from the market, for giving shares to employees. The Company treats Trust as its extension and shared held by the Trust are treated as treasury shares. Own equity instruments that are reacquired (treasury shares) are recognised at cost and deducted from Equity. No gain or loss is recognised in profit and loss on the purchase, sale, issue or cancellation of the Company''s own equity instruments. Any difference between the carrying amount and the consideration, if reissued, is recognised in capital reserve. Share options exercised during the reporting year are satisfied with treasury shares.
The Company has the policy of reporting the segments in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker. The Chief Operating Decision maker is considered to make strategic decisions and is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments.

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS) as prescribed under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 and other relevant provisions of the Companies Act, 2013, as applicable. The financial statements up to the year ended March 31, 2017 were prepared in accordance with Accounting Standards notified under the Companies (Accounting Standards) Rules, 2006 and other relevant provisions of the Act (âPrevious GAAPâ). These are Companyâs first Ind AS financial statements. The date of transition to Ind AS is April 1, 2016. Refer Note 38 for an explanation of the transition from previous GAAP to Ind AS.
Basis of Preparation and presentation
The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost convention on accrual basis except for certain financial instruments which are measured at fair value at the end of each reporting period, as explained in the relevant accounting policies mentioned. The principal accounting policies are set out below. The financial statements are presented in '' and all values are rounded to the nearest Lakhs except otherwise stated.
Going Concern
The board of directors have considered the financial position of the Company at 31st March, 2018 and the projected cash flows and financial performance of the Company for at least twelve months from the date of approval of these financial statements as well as planned cost and cash improvement actions, and believe that the plan for sustained profitability remains on course. The board of directors have taken actions to ensure that appropriate long-term cash resources are in place at the date of signing the accounts to fund the Companyâs operations.
Recent Accounting Pronouncement
In March 2018, the Ministry of Corporate Affairs issued the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) (Amendments) Rules, 2018, notifying amendments to Ind AS 12 âIncome Taxes, Ind AS 21, âThe effects of changes in foreign exchange rates and also introduced new revenue recognition standard Ind AS 115 âRevenue from contracts with customersâ. These amendments rules are applicable to the Company from April 1, 2018.
Ind AS 115 âRevenue from Contracts with Customersâ (Ind AS 115)
Ministry of Corporate Affairs (âMCA) has notified new standard for revenue recognition which overhauls the existing revenue recognition standards including Ind AS 18 - Revenue. The new standard provides a control-based revenue recognition model and provides a five step application principle to be followed for revenue recognition:
(i) Identification of the contracts with the customer
(ii) Identification of the performance obligations in the contract
(iii) Determination of the transaction price
(iv) Allocation of transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract (as identified in step ii)
(v) Recognition of revenue when performance obligation is satisfied.
The standard permits two possible methods of transition:
- Retrospective approach - Under this approach the standard will be applied retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented in accordance with Ind AS 8 - Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors.
- Retrospectively with cumulative effect of initially applying the standard recognized at the date of initial application (Cumulative catch-up approach). The effective date for adoption of Ind AS 115 is financial periods beginning on or after April 1, 2018. The management is yet to assess the impact of this new standard on the Companyâs financial statements.
Amendment to Ind AS 12
The amendment to Ind AS 12 requires the entities to consider restriction in tax laws in sources of taxable profit against which entity may make deductions on reversal of deductible temporary difference (may or may not have arisen from same source) and also consider probable future taxable profit. The Company is evaluating the requirements of the amendment and its impact on the financial statements.
Amendment to Ind AS 21
The amendment to Ind AS 21 requires the entities to consider exchange rate on the date of initial recognition of advance consideration (asset/liability) for recognising related expense/ income on the settlement of said asset/liability. The Company is evaluating the requirements of the amendment and its impact on the financial statements.
Note 3: Significant accounting policies
a) Significant accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Ind AS requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amount of assets, liabilities, income, expenses and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of these financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses for the years presented. Actual results may differ from the estimates. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed at each balance sheet date. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimates are revised and future periods affected.
Judgements:
In the process of applying the Companyâs accounting policies, management has made the following judgements, which have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements:
Revenue recognition and presentation
The Company assesses its revenue arrangements against specific criteria, i.e. whether it has exposure to the significant risks and rewards associated with the sale of goods or the rendering of services, in order to determine if it is acting as a principal or as an agent. The Company has concluded that it is operating on a principal to principal basis in all its revenue arrangements. When deciding the most appropriate basis for presenting revenue or costs of revenue, both the legal form and substance of the agreement between the Company and its business partners are reviewed to determine each partyâs respective role in the transaction.
Useful lives of property, plant and equipment The Company reviews the useful life of property, plant and equipment at the end of each reporting period. This reassessment may result in change in depreciation expense in future periods.
Estimates and Assumptions:
The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year, are described below. The Company based its assumptions and estimates on parameters available when the financial statements were prepared. Existing circumstances and assumptions about future developments, however, may change due to market changes or circumstances arising that are beyond the control of the Company. Such changes are reflected in the assumptions when they occur.
i) Income taxes
The Company is subject to income tax laws as applicable in India. Significant judgment is required in determining provision for income taxes. There are many transactions and calculations for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain during the ordinary course of business. The Company recognises liabilities for anticipated tax issues based on estimates of whether additional taxes will be due. Where the final tax outcome of these matters is different from the amounts that were initially recorded, such differences will impact the income tax and deferred tax provisions in the period in which such determination is made.
ii) Contingencies
Contingent Liabilities may arise from the ordinary course of business in relation to claims against the Company, including legal and other claims. By virtue of their nature, contingencies will be resolved only when one or more uncertain future events occur or fail to occur. The assessment of the existence, and potential quantum, of contingencies inherently involves the exercise of significant judgements and the use of estimates regarding the outcome of future events.
iii) Recoverability of deferred taxes
In assessing the recoverability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the losses can be utilised. The ultimate realisation of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which the temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies in making this assessment.
iv) Defined benefit plans
The present value of the gratuity and compensated absences are determined using actuarial valuations. An actuarial valuation involves making various assumptions that may differ from actual developments in the future. These include the determination of the discount rate, future salary increases and mortality rates. Due to the complexities involved in the valuation and its long-term nature, a defined benefit obligation is highly sensitive to changes in these assumptions. All assumptions are reviewed at each reporting date.
The parameter most subject to change is the discount rate. In determining the appropriate discount rate for plans operated in India, the management considers the interest rates of government bonds in currencies consistent with the currencies of the post-employment benefit obligation. The mortality rate is based on publicly available mortality tables for the specific countries. Those mortality tables tend to change only at interval in response to demographic changes. Future salary increases and gratuity increases are based on expected future inflation rates for the respective countries.
b) Current versus non-current classification
The Company presents assets and liabilities in the balance sheet based on current/ non-current classification.
Assets:
An asset is treated as current when it is:
i) Expected to be realised or intended to be sold or consumed in normal operating cycle,
ii) Held primarily for the purpose of trading,
iii) Expected to be realised within twelve months after the reporting period, or
iv) Cash or cash equivalent unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period.
All other assets are classified as non-current.
Liabilities:
A liability is current when:
i) It is expected to be settled in normal operating cycle,
ii) It is held primarily for the purpose of trading,
iii) It is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period, or
iv) There is no unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period.
All other liabilities are classified as non-current.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as non-current assets and liabilities.
Operating cycle: The operating cycle is the time between the acquisition of assets for processing and their realisation in cash and cash equivalents. The Company has identified twelve months as its operating cycle.
c) Property, Plant and Equipment (PPE) and Investment Property
Property, plant and equipment and capital work in progress are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. Such cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset. An item of property, plant and equipment and any significant part initially recognised is de-recognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use. Any gain or loss arising on de-recognition of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in the statement of profit and loss within other income or expense (as applicable).
Subsequent Costs: The cost of replacing a part of an item of property, plant and equipment is recognised in the carrying amount of the item of property, plant and equipment, if it is probable that the future economic benefits embodied within the part will flow to the Company and its cost can be measured reliably with the carrying amount of the replaced part getting derecognised. The cost for day-to-day servicing of property, plant and equipment are recognised in statement of profit and loss as and when incurred.
Decommissioning Costs : The present value of the expected cost for the decommissioning of an asset after its use is included in the cost of the respective asset if the recognition criteria for a provision are met.
Capital work in progress: Capital work in progress comprises the cost of fixed assets that are not ready for their intended use at the reporting date.
Transition to Ind AS: On transition to Ind AS, the Company has elected to continue with the carrying value of all its property, plant and equipment as at April 1, 2016, measured as per the previous GAAP, and use that carrying value as the deemed cost of such property, plant and equipment w.e.f. April 1, 2016.
Depreciation: Depreciation on PPE, except leasehold improvements, is provided on straight-line method over the useful lives of assets as per Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013. Depreciation for assets purchased / sold during a period is proportionately charged to Statement of Profit & Loss. Leasehold improvements are amortised over the lease term or the useful life of the assets whichever is earlier. Investment Property
(i) Recognition and measurement
Investment Property comprise of Freehold Land and Building.
Investment properties are measured initially at cost, including transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, investment properties are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment loss, if any.
The Company measures investment property using cost based measurement and the fair value of investment property is disclosed in the notes. Fair values are determined based on an annual evaluation performed by an accredited external independent valuer. Investment properties are derecognised either when they have been disposed of or when they are permanently withdrawn from use and no future economic benefit is expected from their disposal. The difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset is recognised in the Standalone Statement of Profit and Loss in the period of derecognition.
(ii) Depreciation
Depreciation on Investment Property is provided, under the Straight Line Method, pro rata to the period of use, based on useful lives specified in Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013.
d) Intangible assets
Recognition and measurement
Intangible assets that are acquired by the Company are measured initially at cost. Intangible assets with finite useful lives are measured at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. All expenditures, qualifying as Intangible Assets are amortized over estimated useful life. Specialized softwareâs are amortized over a period of 5 years or license period whichever is earlier.
Transition to Ind AS
On transition to Ind AS, the Company has elected to continue with the carrying value of all its intangible assets recognized as at 1st April 2016, measured as per the previous GAAP, and use that carrying value as the deemed cost of such intangible assets.
Amortisation: Intangible assets, with infinite lives, are amortized over their respective individual estimated useful lives on a straight-line basis, commencing from the date the assets are available to the Company for their use. In case of the trade mark capitalised, the Company is amortizing it over period of 5 years from the date of capitalisation.
e) Borrowing costs
Borrowing costs consists of interest and amortization of ancillary costs that an entity incurs in connection with the borrowing of funds. Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of an asset that necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use or sale are capitalised as part of the cost of the asset. All other borrowing costs are expensed in the period in which they occur. Borrowing costs consist of interest and other costs that an entity incurs in connection with the borrowing of funds. Borrowing cost also includes exchange differences to the extent regarded as an adjustment to the borrowing costs.
Interest income earned on the temporary investment of specific borrowings pending their expenditure on qualifying assets is deducted from the borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation.
f) Foreign Currency Transaction Functional and presentational currency
The Companyâs financial statements are presented in Indian Rupees (?) which is also the Companyâs functional currency. Functional currency is the currency of the primary economic environment in which a Company operates and is normally the currency in which the Company primarily generates and expends cash. All the financial information presented in '' in lakhs except where otherwise stated.
Transactions and Balances
Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded by the Company at the functional currency spot rates at the date the transaction first qualifies for recognition.
Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the functional currency spot rates of exchange at the reporting date. Differences arising on settlement or translation of monetary items are recognised in statement of profit and loss. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction.
g) Revenue Recognition
Revenue is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Company and the revenue can be reliably measured. Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, taking into account contractually defined terms of payment
and excluding taxes or duties collected on behalf of the government.
i) Revenue from sale of service is recognized on cost plus method; when services are rendered and same becomes chargeable. Service Income comprises of amounts billed for providing services such as Corporate Strategic/ Management and support services rendered to intercompany affiliate(s) in accordance with terms of agreements entered into with them.
ii) Revenue from sale of traded goods (including samples) is recognised on accrual basis and when all the significant risk and rewards of ownership have been passed to the buyer. The sales are accounted for net of trade discount, sales tax/value added tax as applicable and sales return.
iii) Revenue relating to interest income is recognised on time proportionate basis determined by the amount outstanding and the rate applicable and where no significant uncertainty as to measurability or collectability exists.
iv) Revenue relating to rental income is recognized when services are rendered and same becomes chargeable. Service Income comprises amounts billed for leasing out the property and other support services rendered to entities in accordance with terms of agreements entered into with them.
v) Dividend income is recognized when the right to receive payment is established.
h) Inventories
Inventories, of traded goods, are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost includes purchase price, duties, non-refundable taxes and all other costs incurred in bringing the inventory to their present location. Cost is calculated on First in First out (FIFO) method.
i) 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. A lease is classified at the inception date as a finance lease or an operating lease. A lease that transfers substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership to the Company is classified as a finance lease. All the lease other than Finance lease are classified as operating lease. For arrangements entered into prior to the Ind AS transition date i.e. April 01, 2016, the Company has determined whether the arrangement contain lease on the basis of facts and circumstances existing on the date of transition.
Finance lease
Finance leases are capitalised at the commencement of the lease at lower of present value of minimum lease payments or inception date fair value of the leased property. Lease payments are apportioned between finance charges and reduction of the lease liability so as to achieve a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. Finance charges are recognised in finance costs in the Statement of Profit and Loss. 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
A lease where risks and rewards incidental to ownership of an asset substantially vest with the lessor is classified as operating lease. Lease payments under operating leases are recognised as an expense in the Statement of Profit and Loss on a straight line basis over the lease term.
The Company has ascertained that the payments to the lessor that are structured in line with expected general inflation to compensate for the lessorâs expected inflationary cost are not straight-lined. Hence, the lease payments are recognised on an accrual basis as per terms of the lease agreement. j) Employeeâs Benefits
Short Term Employee Benefits: All employee benefits expected to be settled wholly within twelve months of rendering the service are classified as short-term employee benefits. When an employee has rendered service to the Company during an accounting period, the Company recognises the undiscounted amount of short-term employee benefits expected to be paid in exchange for that service as an expense unless another Ind AS requires or permits the inclusion of the benefits in the cost of an asset. Benefits such as salaries, wages and short-term compensated absences, bonus and ex-gratia etc. are recognised in statement of profit and loss in the period in which the employee renders the related service.
Defined Contribution Plan
A defined contribution plan is a post-employment benefit plan under which an entity pays fixed contributions to a statutory authority and will have no legal or constructive obligation to pay further amounts. Provident Fund and Employee State Insurance Schemes are defined contribution scheme and contributions paid / payable are recognised as an expense in the Statement of Profit and Loss during the year in which the employee renders the related service.
Defined Benefit Plan
A defined benefit plan is a post-employment benefit plan other than a defined contribution plan.
The Company has an obligation towards gratuity, a defined benefit retirement plan covering eligible employees. The plan provides for a lump sum payment to vested employees at retirement, death while in employment or on termination of employment of an amount based on the respective employeeâs salary and the tenure of employment. The Company accounts for the liability for gratuity benefits payable in future based on an independent actuarial valuation report using the projected unit credit method as at the year end.
The obligations are measured at the present value of the estimated future cash flows. The discount rate is generally based upon the market yields available on Government bonds at the reporting date with a term that matches that of the liabilities. Re-measurements, comprising actuarial gains and losses including, the effect of the changes to the asset ceiling (if applicable), is reflected immediately in Other Comprehensive Income in the Statement of Profit and Loss. All other expenses related to defined benefit plans are recognised in Statement of Profit and Loss as employee benefit expenses. Gains or losses on the curtailment or settlement of any defined benefit plan are recognised when the curtailment or settlement occurs.
Other Long term Benefits
Long term compensated absences are provided for on the basis of actuarial valuation, using the projected unit credit method, at the end of each financial year. Actuarial gains/ losses, if any, are recognised immediately in the Statement of Profit and Loss. k) Provisions, Contingent liabilities and Contingent assets General
Provisions are recognised when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past events and 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. If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre-tax rate that reflects, when appropriate, the risks specific to the liability. When discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised as a finance cost. Contingent liability is disclosed in the case of;
i) a present obligation arising from past events, when it is not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle obligation;
ii) a present obligation arising from past events, when no reliable estimate is possible.
Contingent assets are neither recognised nor disclosed. However, when realisation of income is virtually certain, related asset is recognised.
Provision, contingent liabilities and contingent assets are reviewed at each balance sheet date and adjusted where necessary to reflect the current best estimate of obligation or asset.
l) Financial instruments
A financial instrument is a contract that gives rise to a financial asset for one entity and a financial liability or equity instrument for another entity. Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instruments.
(i) Initial recognition and measurement
Trade receivables are initially recognised when they are originated. All other financial assets and financial liabilities are initially recognised when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
A financial asset is initially recognised at fair value. In case of financial assets which are recognised at fair value through profit and loss (FVTPL), its transaction cost are recognised in the statement of profit and loss. In other cases, the transaction cost are attributed to the acquisition value of the financial asset.
(ii) Classification and Subsequent measurement
(a) Financial Assets
For purposes of subsequent measurement, financial assets are classified in following categories:
- Financial Asset carried at amortised cost
- Financial Asset at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI)
- Financial Asset at fair value through profit and loss (FVTPL)
Financial assets are not reclassified subsequent to their initial recognition, except if and in the period the Company changes its business model for managing financial assets.
- Financial Asset carried at amortised cost
A financial asset is subsequently measured at 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.
- Financial Asset at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI)
A financial asset is subsequently measured at fair value through other comprehensive income if it is held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets 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.
- Financial Asset at fair value through profit and loss (FVTPL)
A financial asset which is not classified in any of the above categories are subsequently fair valued through profit or loss.
- Equity investment
Investments representing equity interest in associates are carried at cost less any provision for impairment. Investments are reviewed for impairment if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. De-recognition
A financial asset (or, where applicable, a part of a financial asset) is primarily derecognised (i.e. removed from the Companyâs Balance Sheet) when:
(i) The contractual rights to receive cash flows from the asset has expired, or
(ii) The Company has transferred its contractual rights to receive cash flows from the financial asset or has assumed an obligation to pay the received cash flows in full without material delay to a third party under a âpass-throughâ arrangement; and either (a) the Company has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, or (b) the Company has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, but has transferred control of the asset.
(b) Financial Liabilities
Initial recognition and measurement
Financial liabilities are classified, at initial recognition, as financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss.
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 Companyâs financial liabilities include trade and other payables, security deposits received etc.
Subsequent measurement
For purposes of subsequent measurement, financial liabilities are classified in two categories:
- Financial liabilities at amortised cost
- Financial liabilities at fair value through profit and loss (FVTPL)
Financial liabilities at Amortized cost Loans and Borrowings
Borrowings are initially recognised at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. After initial recognition, interest-bearing loans and borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the EIR method. Income and Expense are recognised in the statement of 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. This category generally applies to borrowings.
De-recognition
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 DE recognition 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 and loss.
(c) Offsetting of Financial Instruments
Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the balance sheet if there is a currently enforceable legal right to offset the recognized amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis, to realize the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously. m) Impairment of Financial Assets
The impairment provisions for financial assets are based on assumptions about risk of default and expected loss rates. The Company uses judgments in making these assumptions and selecting the inputs to the impairment calculation, based on Companyâs past history, existing market conditions as well as forward looking estimates at the end of each reporting period.
n) Impairment of Non-Financial Assets
The carrying amounts of the Companyâs non-financial assets, other than deferred tax assets, are reviewed at the end of each reporting period to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, then the assetâs recoverable amount is estimated.
The recoverable amount of an asset or cash-generating unit (âCGUâ) is the greater of its value in use or its fair value less costs to sell. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre
tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset or CGU. For the purpose of impairment testing, assets that cannot be tested individually are grouped together into the smallest group of assets that generates cash inflows from continuing use that are largely independent of the cash inflows of other assets or groups of assets (âCGUâ).
An impairment loss is recognized, if the carrying amount of an asset or its CGU exceeds its estimated recoverable amount and is recognised in statement of profit and loss.
Impairment losses recognised in prior periods are assessed at end of each reporting period for any indications that the loss has decreased or no longer exists. 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 amortisation, if no impairment loss had been recognised.
o) Fair Value Measurement
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value measurement is based on the presumption that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability takes place either:
(a) In the principal market for the asset or liability, or
(b) In the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the asset or liability.
All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the financial statements are categorised within the fair value hierarchy, described as follows, based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole:
Level 1 â Quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 â Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is directly or indirectly observable.
Level 3 â Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is unobservable.
For assets and liabilities that are recognised in the financial statements on a recurring basis, the Company determines whether transfers have occurred between levels in the hierarchy by re-assessing categorisation (based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole) at the end of each reporting period. The Company uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available to measure fair value, maximising the use of relevant observable inputs and minimising the use of unobservable inputs. p) Taxes on Income Current Income Tax
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.
Current income tax relating to items recognized outside profit or loss is recognized outside profit or loss (either in other comprehensive income (OCI) or in equity). Current tax items are recognized in correlation to the underlying transaction either in OCI or directly in equity. 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 are offset against current tax liabilities if, and only if, a legally enforceable right exists to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention either to settle on a net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
Deferred Tax
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 assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, the carry forward of unused tax credits and any unused tax losses.
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. The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each balance sheet date and is adjusted to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered. 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 relating to items recognised outside profit or loss is recognised outside profit or loss (either in other comprehensive income or in equity).
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.
Minimum Alternate Tax
Minimum Alternate Tax (MAT) paid in the year is charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss as current tax. The Company recognises MAT credit available as an asset only to the extent that there is convincing evidence that the Company will pay normal income tax during the specified period, i.e., the period for which MAT credit is allowed to be carried forward. In the year in which Company recognises MAT credit as an asset in accordance with the Guidance Note on Accounting for Credit Available in respect of Minimum Alternate Tax under the Income Tax Act, 1961, the said asset is created by way of credit to the Statement of Profit and Loss and shown as âMAT Credit Entitlement.â The Company reviews the âMAT Credit Entitlementâ asset at each reporting date and writes down the asset to the extent the Company does not have convincing evidence that it will pay normal tax during the specified period. In accordance with Ind AS 12 Company is grouping MAT credit entitlement with Deferred Tax Assets / Liability (Net). q) Investment in Subsidiary and Associates Investment in subsidiaries
There is an option to measure investments in subsidiaries at cost in accordance with Ind AS 27 at either:
(a) Fair value on date of transition; or
(b) Previous GAAP carrying values
The Company has decided to use the previous GAAP carrying values to value its investments in its subsidiaries as on the date of transition, April 01, 2016. r) Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalent in the balance sheet comprise cash at banks and on hand and short-term deposits with an original maturity of three months or less, which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.
For the purpose of the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash balance on hand, cash balance at banks and short-term deposits, as defined above, net of outstanding bank overdrafts as they are considered an integral part of the Companyâs cash management. s) Earnings per share (EPS)
In determining earnings per share, the Company considers the net profit after tax and includes the post-tax effect of any extra ordinary items.
i) Basic earnings per share is calculated 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.
ii) For the purpose of calculating Diluted Earnings per share, the number of shares comprises of weighted average shares considered for deriving basic earnings per share and also the weighted average number of equity share which could have been issued on the conversion of all dilutive potential equity shares. Dilutive potential equity shares are deemed converted as of the beginning of the period, unless they have been issued at a later date. A transaction is considered to be antidilutive if its effect is to increase the amount of EPS, either by lowering the share count or increasing the earnings.
t) Segment Reporting
The Company has the policy of reporting the segments in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief decision maker. The chief decision maker is considered to be the Board of Directors who makes strategic decisions and is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments.
c) The Company Investment Property consist of a property situated at Udyog Vihar, Gurugram, Haryana in India. The Management has determined that the investment property consists of two class of assets - Land and building - based on the nature, characteristics and risks of the property.
d) The fair valuation is based on current prices in the active market for similar properties. The main input used are quantum, area, location, demand, age of building and trend of fair market rent in the location of the property.
e) The fair value is based on valuation performed by an accredited independent valuer. Fair valuation of Investment Property is based on Sales comparable method for land and Depreciated replacement cost method for built up structure. The fair value measurement is categorised in level 1 fair value hierarchy.
b) The above capital includes equity shares 25,996,724 nos* ( '' 2,599.67 lakhs) which were alloted during 2014-15 pursuant to the schemes of Demerger without payments being received in cash.
c) Terms/ rights attached to equity shares:
The company has only one class of equity shares having a par value of '' 10 per share. Each holder of equity shares is entitled to one vote per share. The company declares and pays dividends in Indian rupees. The dividend proposed by the Board of Directors is subject to the approval of the shareholders in the ensuing Annual General Meeting. During the year ended March 31, 2018, the amount of per share dividend recognized as distributions to equity shareholders was '' Nil per share (March 31, 2017: '' Nil per share; March 31, 2016: '' Nil per share). In the event of liquidation of the Company, the holders of equity shares will be entitled to receive remaining assets of the Company, after distribution of all preferential amounts. The distribution will be in proportion to the number of equity shares held by the shareholders.

(hereinafter referred as 'the company') domiciled in India and has its
registered office at A - 3, Community Centre, Naraina Industrial Area,
Phase - II, New Delhi. The Company is engaged in trading of ready to
wear apparels, providing services to group companies engaged in the
export of ready to wear apparels and sourcing & distribution of their
products. The Company has its primary listings on Bombay Stock Exchange
and National Stock Exchange in India.
a) Basis of Preparation
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
applicable accounting standards and relevant presentation requirements
of the Companies Act, 2013 and are based on the historical cost
convention and on an accrual basis of accounting. The Company has
complied in all material respects with Accounting Standard notified
under section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 read with Rule 7 of
Company (Accounts) Rules, 2014, the provisions of the Act(to the extent
notified) and guidelines issued by the Securities and Exchange Board of
India (SEBI). The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of
financial statements are consistent with those of previous year 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.
b) Uses of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Generally
Accepted Accounting Principles requires the management to make
judgment, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts
of revenues, expenses, assets & liabilities and disclosure of
contingent liabilities at the end of the reporting period. Although
these estimates are based on the management's best knowledge of current
events and actions, uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates
could results in the outcomes requiring a material adjustment to the
carrying amounts of assets or liabilities in future periods.
Differences between the actual results and estimates are recognized in
the year in which the results are known / materialized. Changes in
estimates are reflected in the financial statements in the period in
which changes are made and, if material, their effects are disclosed in
the notes to the financial statements.
c) Revenue Recognition
Revenue is recognized to the extent that it is probable that economic
benefits will flow to the Company and the revenue can be reliably
measured. Following are the specific revenue recognition criteria :-
(i) Revenue from sale of service is recognized on cost plus method;
when services are rendered and same becomes chargeable (except on
Gratuity and Leave encashment which in the view of management is
chargeable on payment basis). Service Income comprises amounts billed
for data processing, sourcing and distribution support services
rendered to inter-company affiliate(s) in accordance with terms of
agreements entered into with them.
(ii) Revenue from sale of traded goods (including samples) is
recognised on accrual basis and when all the significant risk and
rewards of ownership have been passed to the buyer. The sales are
accounted for net of trade discount, sales tax/value added tax as
applicable and sales return.
d) Fixed Assets & Depreciation
(i) Fixed assets are stated at cost of acquisition inclusive of
freight, duties & taxes and incidental expenses related to acquisition
and installation less accumulated depreciation up to the date of
installation. Fixed assets under construction, and cost of assets not
put to use before year end are shown as Capital Work in Progress. Gain
or loss arising on the sale of fixed assets are measured as the
difference between the net proceeds and the carrying amount of the
asset and are recognised in the Statement of Profit & Loss in the year
in which the asset is sold.
(ii) Depreciation on tangible assets is provided on the straight-line
method over the useful lives of assets estimated by the management.
Depreciation for assets purchased / sold during a period is
proportionately charged to Statement of Profit & Loss. Intangible
assets are amortized over their respective individual estimated useful
lives on a straight-line basis, commencing from the date the asset is
available to the Company for its use. The management estimates the
useful lives for the other fixed assets as follows:
(iii) Intangible Assets : Intangible assets are recorded at the
consideration paid for acquisition of such assets and are carried at
cost less accumulated amortization and impairment. All expenditures,
qualifying as Intangible Assets are amortized over estimated useful
life.
e) Inventory
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value.
Cost includes purchase price, duties, non refundable taxes and all
other costs incurred in bringing the inventory to their present
location. Cost is calculated on First in First out (FIFO) method.
f) Foreign Currency Transactions
(i) Initial Recognition: Transactions denominated in foreign currencies
are recorded at an exchange rate prevailing at the time of the
transaction
Conversion: Monetary items denominated in foreign currency are reported
using the closing exchange rate on each Balance Sheet Date. Non Â
monetary items which are carried in terms of historical cost
denominated in a foreign currency are reported using the exchange rate
at the date of the transaction.
Exchange difference: The exchange difference arising on the settlement
of monetary items or reporting these items at rates different from
rates at which these were initially recorded / reported in previous
financial statements are recognized as income/expense in the period in
which they arise.
(ii) Non Current Investment in foreign entities are recorded at the
exchange rates prevailing on the date of making the investments.
g) Employee's Benefits
Expenses and Liabilities in respect of employee benefits are recorded
in accordance with Revised Accounting Standard 15 Â Employees Benefits
(Revised 2005) :
(i) Short Term Employee Benefits: Short term employee benefits
including short term compensated absences are recognised as an expense
at an undiscounted amount in the Statement of Profit & Loss of the year
in which the related service is rendered. Terminal Benefits are
recognized as an expense immediately.
(ii) Defined Contribution Plan : Contributions payable to recognised
provident fund and employee state insurance scheme, which are
substantially defined contribution plans, are recognised as expense in
the Statement of Profit and Loss, as they incurred.
(iii) Defined Benefit Plan : The cost of providing defined benefits is
determined using the Projected Unit Credit Method, with actuarial
valuations being carried out at each balance sheet date. Actuarial
gains and losses are recognized in full in the Statement of Profit and
Loss for the period in which they occur. Past service cost is
recognized immediately to the extent that the benefits are already
vested, and otherwise is amortized on a straight line basis over the
average period until the benefit become vested. The retirement benefit
obligation recognised in the balance sheet represents the present value
of the defined benefit obligation as adjusted for unrecognized past
service cost and as reduced by the fair value of scheme assets. Any
asset resulting from this calculation is limited to past service cost,
plus the present value of available refunds and reductions in future
contributions to the scheme.
(iv) Other Long term Benefits : Long term compensated absences are
provided for on the basis of actuarial valuation, using the projected
unit credit method, at the end of each financial year. Actuarial gains/
losses, if any, are recognised immediately in the Statement of Profit
and Loss.
h) Borrowing Cost
"Borrowing costs include interest, amortisation of ancillary costs
incurred in connection with the arrangement of borrowings and exchange
differences arising from foreign currency borrowings to the extent they
are regarded as an adjustment to the interest cost."Borrowing costs
that are attributable to the acquisition or construction of qualifying
fixed assets are capitalized as part of the cost of assets. All other
borrowing costs are recognized as expense in the year in which they are
incurred."
i) Impairment of Assets
The company assesses at each reporting date whether there is an
indication that an asset may be impaired. If any indication exists, the
recoverable amount is determined. Where the carrying amount of an
asset or CGU exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is considered
impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount. In assessing
value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their
present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current
market assessments of the time value of money and risks specific to the
asset.
After impairment, depreciation is provided on the revised carrying
amount of the assets over its remaining useful life.
A previously recognised impairment loss is reversed in Statement of
Profit & Loss only if there has been a change in the assumptions used
to determine the asset's recoverable amount since the last impairment
loss was recognised. The reversal is limited so that the carrying
amount of the asset does not exceed its recoverable amount, nor exceed
the carrying amount that would have determined, net of depreciation,
had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years.
j) Leases
Assets acquired under leases where a significant portion of the risks
and rewards of ownership are retained by the lessor are classified as
operating leases. Lease rentals are charged to the Statement of Profit
& Loss on accrual basis on straight line basis.
k) Taxes On Income
Tax expense comprises current and differed tax
Current income-tax
Current Tax is measured and expected to be paid to the tax authorities
in accordance with the provisions of the Income Ta x Act, 1961, and
based on the expected outcome of assessment/appeals. The tax rates and
tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted or
substantively enacted, at the reporting date. Current Income Ta x
relating to the items recognised directly in equity is recognised in
equity and not in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Deferred income taxes
Deferred tax reflect the impact of timing differences between taxable
income and accounting income originating during the current year and
reversal of timing differences for the earlier years. Deferred tax is
measured using the tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount
are those that are enacted or substantively enacted, at the reporting
date. Deferred tax assets subject to consideration of prudence, are
recognized and carried forward only to the extent that there is
reasonable certainty that sufficient future taxable income will be
available against which such deferred tax assets can be realized. Such
assets are reviewed as at each balance sheet date to re-assess
realization.
l) Provision, Contingent Liabilities And Contingent Assets
Provisions are recognized in the accounts in respect of present
probable obligations arising as a result of past events and it is
probable that there will be an outflow of resources, the amount of
which can be reliably estimated.
Contingent liabilities are disclosed in respect of possible obligations
that arise from past events but their existence is confirmed by the
occurrence or non occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not
wholly within the control of the Company.
Contingent Assets are neither recognized nor disclosed in the financial
statements.
m) Earning per Share (EPS)
In determining earnings per share, the company considers the net profit
after tax and includes the post tax effect of any extra ordinary items.
(i) Basic earning per share is calculated 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.
(ii) For the purpose of calculating Diluted Earning per share, the
number of shares comprises of weighted average shares considered for
deriving basic earning per share and also the weighted average number
of equity share which could have been issued on the conversion of all
dilutive potential equity shares. Dilutive potential equity shares are
deemed converted as of the beginning of the period, unless they have
been issued at a later date. A transaction is considered to be
and dilutive if its effect is to increase the amount of EPS, either by
lowering the share count or increasing the earnings.
n) Cash Flow Statement
Cash flows are reported using the indirect method, whereby profit
before tax is adjusted for the effects of transactions of a non-cash
nature, any deferrals or accruals of past or future operating cash
receipts or payments and item of income or expenses associated with
investing or financing cash flows. The cash flows from operating,
investing and financing activities of the Company are segregated as
specified in Accounting Standard -3(AS-3) " Cash Flow Statement".
o) Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash and cash on deposit with banks.
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a remaining
maturity at the date of purchase of three months or less and that are
readily convertible to known amounts of cash to be cash equivalents.
b) Terms/rights attached to Equity shares
The company has only one class of equity shares having a par value of
Rs.10 per share. Each holder of Equity shares is entitled to one vote
per share. In the event of liquidation of the company, the holders of
equity shares will be entitled to receive remaining assets of the
company, after distribution of all preferential amounts. The
distribution will be in proportion to the number of equity shares held
by the shareholders.
(i) Defined Contribution Plan
The Company makes contribution towards Provident Fund (PF) & Employee
State Insurance (ESI) as defined contribution retirement benefit plan
for the qualifying employees. The provident fund plan is operated by
the Regional Provident Fund Commissioner and the Company contributes a
specified percentage of payroll cost to the said schemes to fund the
benefits. Similarly, contribution is made at a specified percentage in
case of Employee State Insurance.
During the year company recognized Rs. 428,376 (March 31, 2014: Rs.
268,470) for provident fund contribution and Rs. 49,313 (March 31, 2014:
Rs. 67,023) for ESI contribution in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
The contribution payable to these plans by the Company is at rates
specified in the rules of the schemes.
(ii) Defined Benefit Plan : It includes :
a) Gratuity (Unfunded)
b) Leave Encashment/Compensated Absence (Unfunded)
In accordance with Accounting Standard 15 (revised 2005), an actuarial
valuation is carried out in respect of aforesaid defined benefit
plans and other long term benefits based on the assumption given in the
table with subheading ' d ' below. The present value of obligation is
determined based on actuarial valuation 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 at year end. The
obligation for leave encashment is recognized in the same manner as of
gratuity.
Mar 31, 2014
A) Inventories
i) Inventories of finished goods manufactured by the company are valued
at lower of cost and estimated net realizable value. Cost includes

proceeds and the Carrying amount of the assets and are recognised in
the statement of Profit & Loss in the year in which the asset is sold.
f) Intangible Assets

recognized as an intangible asset and is measured at cost. It is
amortized by way of a systematic allocation of the depreciable amount
over its useful life and recognized in the balance sheet at net of any
accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses thereon.
g) Foreign Currency Transactions
i) Initial Recognition: Transactions denominated in foreign currencies
are recorded at an exchange rate prevailing at the time of the
transaction.Sales made in foreign currency are translated on average
exchange rate.
Conversion: Monetary items denominated in foreign currency are reported
using the closing exchange rate on each Balance Sheet Date. Non Â
monetary items which are carried in terms of historical cost
denominated in a foreign currency are reported using the exchange rate
at the date of the transaction.
Exchange difference: The exchange difference arising on the settlement
of monetary items or reporting these items at rates different from
rates at which these were initially recorded / reported in previous
financial statements are recognized as income/expense in the period in
which they arise.

h) Investment and Financial Assets
As per AS-30, the company has classified its investments as follows:-
Held for trading: Trading securities are those (both debt & equity)
that are bought and held principally for the purpose of selling them in
near term. Such securities are valued at fair value and gain/loss is
recognised in the Statement of Profit & Loss.
Held to Maturity: The investments are classified as held to maturity
only if the company has the positive intent and ability to hold these
securities to maturity. Such securities are held at historical cost.
Available-for-sale financial assets: Available-for-sale financial
assets are non- derivative financial assets in listed and unlisted
equity & debt instruments that are designated as available for sale and
are initially recognized at their value. Subsequent to initial
recognition, available-for-sale financial assets are measured at fair
value, with gains or loss recognised as a separate component of equity
as ÂInvestment Revaluation Reserve until the investment is
derecognised or until the investment is determined to be impaired, at
which time the cumulative gain or loss previously reported in equity is
included in the income statement.
When the fair value of unlisted equity securities cannot be reliably
measured because, first the variability in the range of reasonable fair
value estimates is significant for that investment or, secondly the
probabilities of the various estimates within the range cannot be
reasonably assessed and used in estimating fair value, such securities
are stated at cost less any impairment.
Fair value: The fair value of investments that are actively traded in
organised financial markets is determined by rereference to quoted
market bid prices at the close of business at the balance sheet date.
i) Derivative financial instruments and hedging
The Company uses derivative financial instruments such as forward
currency contracts to hedge its risks associated with foreign currency
fluctuations. Such derivative financial instruments are initially
recognized at cost on the date on which a derivative contract is
entered into and are subsequently re-measured at fair value.
Derivatives are carried as assets when the fair value is positive and
as liabilities when the fair value is negative.
Any gains or losses arising from changes in fair value on derivatives
that do not qualify for hedge accounting are taken directly to the
Statement of Profit & Loss.
The fair value of forward currency contracts is calculated by reference
to current forward exchange rates for contracts with similar maturity
profiles.
For the purpose of hedge accounting, hedges are classified as:
Fair value hedges: A hedge of the exposure to changes in the fair value
of recognized asset or liability or an unrecognized firm commitment
(except for foreign risk); or identified portion of such asset,
liability or firm commitment (except for foreign risk),or an identified
portion of such asset, liability or firm commitment that is
attributable to a particular risk and could affect profit or loss.
Cash flow hedges: A hedge of the exposure to variability in cash flows
that is either attributable to a particular risk associated with a
recognized asset or liability or a highly probable forecast
transaction, and could affect profit or loss.
The effective portion of the gain or loss on the hedging instrument is
recognized directly in the equity, while the ineffective portion is
recognized in the Statement of Profit & Loss.

The cost of providing defined benefits is determined using the
Projected Unit Credit Method, with actuarial valuations being carried
out at each balance sheet date. Actuarial gains and losses are
recognized in full in the Statement of Profit and Loss for the period
in which they occur. Past service cost is recognized immediately to the
extent that the benefits are already vested, and otherwise is amortized
on a straight line basis over the average period until the benefit
become vested. The retirement benefit obligation recongnised in the
balance sheet represents the present value of the defined benefit
obligation as adjusted for unrecognized past service cost and as
reduced by the fair value of scheme assets. Any asset resulting from
this calculation is limited to past service cost, plus the present
value of available refunds and reductions in future contributions to
the scheme.
(iv) Other Long term Benefits
Long term compensated absences are provided for on the basis of
acturial valuation, using the projected unit credit method, at the end
of each financial year. Acturial gains/ losses, if any, are recognised
immediately in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
k) Borrowing Costs
Borrowing costs that are attributable to the acquisition or
construction of qualifying assets are capitalized as part of the cost

- Assets acquired under leases where the company has substantially all
the risks and rewards of ownership are classified as finance leases.
Such assets are capitalized at the inception of the lease at the lower
of the fair value or the present value of minimum lease payments and a
liability is created for an equivalent amount. Each lease rental paid
is allocated between the liability and the interest cost, so as to
obtain a constant periodic rate of interest on the outstanding
liability for each period.
- Assets acquired under leases where a significant portion of the risks
and rewards of ownership are retained by the lessor are classified as
operating leases. Lease rentals are charged to the Statement of Profit
& Loss on accrual basis on straight line basis.

income is recognized on accrual basis over the lease term.
m) Taxes On Income

year as determined in accordance with the provisions of the Income Tax
Act, 1961.

differences between taxable income and accounting income that originate
in one period and are capable of reversal in one or more subsequent
periods.
Deferred tax assets in respect of unabsorbed depreciation and carry
forward of losses are recognized if there is a virtual certainty that
there will be sufficient future taxable income available to reverse
such losses.
n) Impairment of Assets
An asset is treated as impaired when the carrying cost of assets
exceeds its recoverable value. An impairment loss is charged to the
Profit & Loss Account in the year in which an asset is identified as
impaired. The impairment loss recognized in prior accounting period is
reversed if there has been a change in the estimate of recoverable
amount.
o) Provision, Contingent Liabilities And Contingent Assets
Provisions involving substantial degree of estimation in measurement
are recognized when there is a present obligation as a result of past
events and it is probable that there will be an outflow of resources.
Contingent liabilities are not recognized but are disclosed in the
Notes to Account. Contingent assets are neither recognized nor
disclosed in the financial statements.
p) Earning per Share (EPS)
In determining earnings per share, the company considers the net profit
after tax and includes the post tax effect of any extra ordinary items.
Basic earning per share is calculated 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 Earning per share, the number of
shares comprises of weighted average shares considered for deriving
basic earning per share and also the weighted average number of equity
share which could have been issued on the conversion of all dilutive
potential equity shares. Dilutive potential equity shares are deemed
converted as of the beginning of the period, unless they have been
issued at a later date. A transaction is considered to be antidilutive
if its effect is to increase the amount of EPS, either by lowering the
share count or increasing the earnings.
