This note provides a list of the significant accounting policies adopted in the presentation of these standalone financial statements.
1.01 BASIS OF PREPARATION
(i) Compliance with Ind AS:
The standalone financial statements comply in all material aspects with Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS) notified under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 (the Act), and relevant rules issued thereunder. In accordance with proviso to the Rule 4A of the Companies (Accounts) Rules, 2014, the terms used in these financial statements are in accordance with the definitions and other requirements specified in the applicable Accounting standards.
(ii) Historical cost convention:
The standalone financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for the following:
- certain financial assets and liabilities (including derivative instruments) is measured at fair value; and
- defined benefit plans - plan assets measured at fair value.
1.02 ROUNDING OF AMOUNTS
All amounts disclosed in the standalone financial statements and notes have been rounded off to the nearest thousands, except where otherwise indicated.
1.03 CURRENT VERSUS NON-CURRENT CLASSIFICATION
The Company presents assets and liabilities in the Balance Sheet based on current/ non-current classification. An asset is classified as current if it is:
i) Expected to be realized or intended to 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.
The Company classifies all other liabilities as non-current.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as non-current assets and liabilities.
All assets and liabilities have been classified as current or non-current as per the Companyâs normal operating cycle. Based on the nature of operations, the Company has ascertained its operating cycle as twelve months for the purpose of current - non-current classification of assets and liabilities.
1.04 USE OF JUDGEMENTS, ESTIMATES & ASSUMPTIONS
While preparing standalone financial statements in conformity with Ind AS, the management makes certain estimates and assumptions that require subjective and complex judgments. These judgments affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amount of assets, liabilities, income and expenses, disclosure of contingent liabilities at the statement of financial position date and the reported amount of income and expenses for the reporting period. Financial reporting results rely on our estimate of the effect of certain matters that are inherently uncertain. Future events rarely develop exactly as forecast and the best estimates require adjustments, as actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The management continually evaluate these estimates and assumptions based on the most recently available information.
Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimates are revised and in any future periods affected. In particular, information about significant areas of estimation uncertainty and critical judgments in applying accounting policies that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the standalone financial statements are as below:
Key sources of estimation uncertainty
i) Financial instruments; (Refer note 4.08)
ii) Useful lives of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets; (Refer note 1.06)
iii) Valuation of inventories; (Refer note 1.10)
iv) Assets and obligations relating to employee benefits; (Refer note 4.04)
v) Evaluation of recoverability of deferred tax assets; (Refer note 2.06) and
vi) Contingencies. (Refer note 4.02)
1.05 FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSACTIONS
(i) Functional and presentation currency
The Companyâs standalone financial statements are prepared in INR, which is also the Companyâs functional and presentation currency.
(ii) Transactions and balances Monetary items
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at year end exchange rates are generally recognized in Statement of Profit and Loss.
Non - Monetary items
Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the dates of the initial transactions.
1.06 PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT
Property, plant and equipment is stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. The initial cost of an asset comprises its purchase price, any costs directly attributable to bringing the asset into the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management, the initial estimate of any decommissioning obligation, if any. The purchase price is the aggregate amount paid and the fair value of any other consideration given to acquire the asset.
Subsequent costs are included in the assetâs carrying amount or recognized as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of any component accounted for as a separate asset is derecognized when replaced. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to Statement of Profit and Loss during the reporting period in which they are incurred.
An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognized upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset. Any gain or loss arising on the disposal or retirement of an item of property, plant and equipment is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and is recognized in Statement of Profit and Loss.
Stores & Spares which meet the definition of property plant and equipment and satisfy the recognition criteria of Ind AS 16 are capitalized as property, plant and equipment.
Depreciation on Property, plant and equipment
Depreciation on Property, Plant & Equipment is provided on written down value method. In accordance with requirements prescribed under Schedule II of Companies Act, 2013, the Company has assessed the estimated useful lives of its Property, Plant & Equipment and has adopted the useful lives and residual value as prescribed in Schedule II.
In case of additions/deletions during the year, the depreciation is computed from the month in which such assets are put to use and upto the previous month of sale or disposal as the case may be. In case of impairment, depreciation is provided on the revised carrying amount over its remaining useful life.
All assets costing up to Rs. 5,000/- are fully depreciated in the year of capitalization.
The estimated useful lives and residual values are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimate accounted for on a prospective basis.
1.07 INTANGIBLE ASSETS
Intangible assets acquired separately are measured on initial recognition at cost. Following initial recognition, intangible assets are carried at cost less any accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses.
Intangible assets with finite lives are amortised on written down value basis over their useful economic life and assessed for impairment whenever there is an indication that the intangible asset may be impaired. The amortisation period and the amortisation method for an intangible asset with a finite useful life are reviewed at each year end. The amortisation expense on Intangible assets with finite lives and impairment loss is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Business application software intended for long term use are recorded at their acquisition cost and the cost of assets at their carrying value.
Amortization of intangible assets
Computer software is amortized over the estimated useful life of the assets.
1.08 IMPAIRMENT OF ASSETS
Carrying amount of tangible assets, intangible assets and investments in subsidiary (which is carried at cost) is 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 assetâs carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an assetâs fair value less costs of disposal and value in use.
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. In determining fair value less costs of disposal, recent market transactions are taken into account. If no such transactions can be identified, an appropriate valuation model is used.
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 Companyâs assets (cash-generating units). Non- financial assets other than goodwill that suffered an impairment are reviewed for possible reversal of the impairment at the end of each reporting period.
1.09 LEASES
The determination of whether an arrangement is, or contains, a lease is based on the substance of the arrangement at the inception date, whether fulfillment of the arrangement is dependent on the use of a specific asset or assets or the arrangement conveys a right to use the asset, even if that right is not explicitly specified in an arrangement.
As a Lessee
Operating Lease
Leases in which a significant portion of the risks and rewards of ownership are not transferred to the Company as lessee are classified as operating leases. Payments made under operating leases (net of any incentives received from the lessor) are charged to Statement of Profit and Loss on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease unless the payments are structured to increase in line with expected general inflation to compensate for the lessorâs expected inflationary cost increases.
1.10 INVENTORIES
Inventories are valued as follows:
Raw materials, packing materials, work-in-process and finished goods are valued at cost or net realizable value, whichever is lower. Cost of raw materials and packing materials is determined on FIFO basis. Cost of work-in-process and finished goods is determined on the basis of absorption costing method.
Property under development
Property under development represents free hold land converted into stock-in-trade on the basis of valuation made by approved valuer and development expenses incurred thereon.
1.11 CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
For the purpose of presentation in the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, deposits held at call with financial institutions, other short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.
1.12 INVESTMENT IN SUBSIDIARY
A subsidiary is an entity that is controlled by another entity. An investor controls an investee if and only if the investor has the following; (i) Power over the investee, (ii) exposure, or rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and
(iii) the ability to use its power over the investee to affect the amount of the investorâs returns.
The Companyâs investments in its subsidiary is accounted at cost and reviewed for impairment at each reporting date.
1.13 FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognized when a Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instruments.
Initial Recognition and Measurement - Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities
Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities (other than financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss and ancillary costs related to borrowings) are added to or deducted from the fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are recognized immediately in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Classification and Subsequent Measurement: Financial Assets
The Company classifies financial assets as subsequently measured at amortized cost, fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI) or fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL) on the basis of following:
- the entityâs business model for managing the financial assets and
- the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial asset.
Amortized Cost:
A financial asset is classified and measured at amortized cost if both of the following conditions are met:
- the financial asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold financial assets 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.
FVTOCI:
A financial asset is classified and measured at FVTOCI if both of the following conditions are met:
- the financial asset 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.
FVTPL:
A financial asset is classified and measured at FVTPL unless it is measured at amortized cost or at FVTOCI.
All recognized financial assets are subsequently measured in their entirety at either amortized cost or fair value, depending on the classification of the financial assets.
Impairment of Financial Assets:
The Company assesses on a forward looking basis the expected credit losses associated with its assets carried at amortized cost. The impairment methodology applied depends on whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk.
Classification and Subsequent measurement: Financial Liabilities
The Companyâs financial liabilities include trade payables and other financial liabilities.
Financial Liabilities at FVTPL:
Financial liabilities are classified as at FVTPL when the financial liability is held for trading or are designated upon initial recognition as FVTPL.
Gains or losses on financial liabilities held for trading are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Other Financial Liabilities:
Other financial liabilities (including borrowings and trade and other payables) are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method.
The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortized cost of a financial liability and of allocating interest expense over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments (including all fees and points paid or received that form an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and other premiums or discounts) through the expected life of the financial liability, or (where appropriate) a shorter period, to the net carrying amount on initial recognition.
Derecognition of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities:
The Company derecognizes a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire, or it transfers the rights to receive the contractual cash flows in a transaction in which substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are transferred. If the Company enters into transactions whereby it transfers assets recognized on its Balance Sheet, but retains either all or substantially all of the risks and rewards of the transferred assets, the transferred assets are not derecognized.
A financial liability is derecognized when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires.
Offsetting Financial Instruments:
Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the Balance Sheet where there is a legally enforceable right to offset the recognized amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. The legally enforceable right must not be contingent on future events and must be enforceable in the normal course of business and in the event of default, insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company or the counterparty.
1.14 PROVISIONS, CONTINGENT LIABILITIES AND CONTINGENT ASSETS
Provisions are recognized when the company has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and the amount can be reliably estimated. Provisions are not recognized for future operating losses.
Provisions are measured at the present value of managementâs best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period. The discount rate used to determine the present value is a current pretax rate. The increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognized as interest expense.
Contingent liabilities are disclosed in the case of:
- a present obligation arising from the past events, when it is not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation;
- a present obligation arising from the past events, when no reliable estimate is possible;
- a possible obligation arising from past events, unless the probability of outflow of resources is remote.
Contingent Assets is disclosed when inflow of economic benefits is probable.
1.15 REVENUE RECOGNITION
The Company derives revenue primarily from sale of products.
Effective April 1, 2018 the Company adopted Ind AS 115 Revenue from Contracts with Customers using the cumulative catchup transition method, applied to contracts with customers that were not completed as at April 1, 2018. In accordance with the cumulative catch-up transition method, the comparatives have not been retrospectively adjusted. The following is the summary of new and/ or revised significant accounting policies related to revenue recognition. Refer Note 1.00 Significant Accounting Policies, in the Companyâs 2018 Annual Report for the policies in effect for revenue prior to April 1, 2018. The effect on adoption of Ind AS 115 was insignificant.
Significant accounting policy
Revenue is recognized upon transfer of control of promised products or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expect to receive in exchange for those products or services.
To recognize revenues, the Company applies the following five step approach:
1. Identify the contract with a customer;
2. Identify the performance obligations in the contract;
3. Determine the transaction price;
4. Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and
5. Recognize revenues when a performance obligation is satisfied
Revenue is measured based on the consideration specified in a contract with a customer and excludes amounts collected on behalf of third parties.
The Company presents revenue net of indirect taxes in its Statement of Profit and Loss.
Interest
Interest income is recognized using the effective interest rate method taking into account the amount outstanding and the applicable interest rate. Interest income is included under the head other income in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Dividend
Dividends are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss only when the right to receive payment is established, it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the dividend will flow to the Company, and the amount of the dividend can be measured reliably.
1.16 TAXES ON INCOME Current Tax
Tax on income for the current period is determined on the basis of estimated taxable income and tax credits computed in accordance with the provisions of the relevant tax laws and based on the expected outcome of assessments / appeals.
Current income tax relating to items recognized directly in equity is recognized in equity and not in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Management periodically evaluates positions taken in the tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulations are subject to interpretation and establishes provisions where appropriate.
Deferred tax
Deferred tax is provided using the Balance Sheet approach on temporary differences at the reporting date between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes 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 reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred tax asset to be utilized. Unrecognized deferred tax assets are reassessed at each reporting date and are recognized to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profits will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the year when the asset is 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 relating to items recognized outside the Statement of Profit and Loss is recognized outside the Statement of Profit and Loss. Deferred tax items are recognized in correlation to the underlying transaction either in other comprehensive income or directly in equity.
The break-up of the major components of the deferred tax assets and liabilities as at Balance Sheet date has been arrived at after setting off deferred tax assets and liabilities where the Company have a legally enforceable right to set-off assets against liabilities and where such assets and liabilities relate to taxes on income levied by the same governing taxation laws.
1.17 EMPLOYEE BENEFITS
Short-term obligations
Short term employee benefits are recognized as an expense at an undiscounted amount in the Statement of Profit and Loss of the year in which the related services are rendered.
Post-employment obligations
The Company operates the following post-employment schemes:
- defined benefit plans such as gratuity; and
- defined contribution plans such as provident fund.
Gratuity obligations
The liability or asset recognized in the Balance Sheet in respect of defined benefit gratuity plans is the present value of the defined benefit obligation at the end of the reporting period less the fair value of plan assets. The defined benefit obligation is calculated annually by actuaries using the projected unit credit method.
The present value of the defined benefit obligation denominated in INR is determined by discounting the estimated future cash outflows by reference to market yields at the end of the reporting period on government bonds that have terms approximating to the terms of the related obligation.
The net interest cost is calculated by applying the discount rate to the net balance of the defined benefit obligation and the fair value of plan assets. This cost is included in employee benefit expense in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Measurement gains and losses arising from experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions are recognized in the period in which they occur, directly in other comprehensive income. They are included in retained earnings in the statement of changes in equity and in the Balance Sheet.
Changes in the present value of the defined benefit obligation resulting from plan amendments or curtailments are recognized immediately in Statement of Profit and Loss as past service cost.
Defined contribution plans
The Company pays provident fund contributions to publicly administered provident funds as per local regulations. The Company has no further payment obligations once the contributions have been paid. The contributions are accounted for as defined contribution plans and the contributions are recognized as employee benefit expense when they are due. Prepaid contributions are recognized as an asset to the extent that a cash refund or a reduction in the future payments is available.
Other long-term employee benefit obligations
The liabilities for leave are not expected to be settled wholly within twelve months after the end of the period in which the employees render the related service. They are therefore measured as the present value of expected future payments to be made in respect of services provided by employees up to the end of the reporting period using the projected unit credit method. The benefits are discounted using the market yields at the end of the reporting period that have terms approximating to the terms of the related obligation. Measurements as a result of experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions are recognized in Statement of Profit and Loss.
The obligations are presented as current liabilities in the Balance Sheet if the entity does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least twelve months after the reporting period, regardless of when the actual settlement is expected to occur.
1.18 EARNINGS PER SHARE (EPS)
Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing the net profit or loss for the period attributable to equity shareholders (after deducting attributable taxes) by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period.
For the purpose of calculating diluted earnings per share, the net profit or loss for the period attributable to equity shareholders is adjusted for after income tax effect of interest and other financing cost associated with dilutive potential equity shares and the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period are adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potential equity shares.
Mar 31, 2015
(i) Basis of accounting
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the
generally accepted accounting principles in India, under the historical
cost convention on accrual basis. These financial statements have been
prepared to comply, in all material aspects, with the accounting
standards specified under section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 read
with Rule 7 of the Companies (Accounts) Rules,2014 .The items contained
in this financial statements are in accordance with the above
Accounting Standards.
All assets and liabilities have been classified as current or
non-current as per the Company's normal operating cycle and other
criteria set out in the Schedule III to the Companies Act, 2013. All
the divisions of the Company have normal operating cycle of less than
twelve months, hence a period of twelve months has been considered for
bifurcation of assets and liabilities into current and non-current as
required by Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013 for preparation of
Financial Statements.
Use of Estimate
The preparation of financial statement in conformity with the generally
accepted accounting principles requires estimates and assumptions to be
made that affect the reported amounts of the assets and liabilities on
the date of financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues
and expenses during the reporting period. Difference between actual
results and estimates are recognized in the period in which the results
get materialized.
(ii) Fixed assets and depreciation
a. Fixed assets Intangibles
Business application software intended for long term use are recorded
at their acquisition cost and cost of assets at their carrying values.
Tangibles
All fixed assets are stated at cost of acquisition, less accumulated
depreciation and includes adjustments arising from exchange rate
variations attributable to fixed assets. In the case of fixed assets
acquired for new projects / expansion, interest cost borrowings, and
other related expenses incurred upto the date of completion of project
are capitalised.
b. Depreciation Intangibles
Computer software is being depreciated on written down method at the
rates specified in schedue II of the Companies Act,2013.
Tangibles
Depreciation on tangible assets has been provided on written down
method at the rates specified in Schedule II of the Companies Act,2013.
c. Impairment of assets
The Company assesses at each balance sheet date whether there is any
indication that an asset may be impaired. If any such indication
exists, the Company estimates the recoverable amount of the asset. If
such recoverable amount of the asset or the recoverable amount of the
cash generating unit to which the asset belongs is less than its
carrying amount, the carrying amount is reduced to its recoverable
amount. The reduction is treated as an impairment loss and is
recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss. If at the balance sheet
date there is an indication that if a previously assessed impairment
loss no longer exists, the recoverable amount is reassessed and the
asset is reflected at the recoverable amount.
(iii) Investments
Investments which are readily realizable and intended to be held for
not more than one year from the date on which such investments are
made, are classified as current investments. All other investments are
classified as long-term investments.
On initial recognition, all investments are measured at cost. The cost
comprises purchase price and directly attributable acquisition charges
such as brokerage, fees and duties. If an investment is acquired, or
partly acquired, by the issue of shares or other securities, the
acquisition cost is the fair value of the securities issued. If an
investment is acquired in exchange for another asset, the acquisition
cost of the investment is determined by reference to the fair value of
the asset given up or by reference to the fair value of the investment
acquired, whichever is more clearly evident.
Current investment are carried in the financial statements at lower of
cost and fair value determined on an individual investment basis.
Long-term investments are carried at cost. However, provision for
diminution in value is made to recognize a decline other than temporary
in the value of the investments.
On disposal of an investment, the difference between its carrying
amount and net disposal proceeds is charged or credited to the
Statement of Profit and Loss.
(iv) Inventories
Stores, spares and packing materials, raw materials, work-in-process
and finished goods are valued at cost or net realisable value,
whichever is lower. Cost of stores, spares and packing materials and
raw materials is determined on FIFO basis. Cost of work-in-process and
finished goods is determined on the basis of absorption costing method.
(v) Property under development
Property under development represents free hold land converted into
stock-in-trade on the basis of valuation made by approved valuers and
development expenses incurred thereon.
(vi) Employee benefits
a. Short term employee benefits (benefits which are payable within
twelve months after the end of the period in which employees render
services) are measured at cost.
b. Long term employee benefits (benefits which are payable after the
end of twelve months in which the employees render services) and post
employment benefits (benefits which are payable on completion of
employment) are measured on a discounted basis by the Projected Unit
Credit Method on the basis of actuarial valuation annually.
c. Contributions to Provident Fund, a defined contribution plan are
made in accordance with the statute and recognised as an expense when
employees have rendered service entitling them to the contributions.
d. The cost of providing gratuity, a defined benefit contribution plan,
is determined using Projected Unit Credit Method on the basis of
actuarial valuation carried out by actuaries at the balance sheet date.
The gratuity obligation recognised in balance sheet represents the
present value of the obligation as reduced by the fair value of plan
assets. Actuarial gains and losses are recognised in the Statement of
Profit and Loss.
(vii) Accounting of CENVAT credit
CENVAT credit on raw material and capital goods is accounted for by
reducing the purchase of cost of raw material and capital goods
respectively.
(viii) Revenue recognition
Revenue (Income) is recognised when no significant uncertainty as to
determination or realization exists. Sales are recognised ex-works and
are inclusive of excise duty and net of sales tax.
(ix) Foreign currency transactions
a. Foreign currency transactions are accounted at the exchange rate
prevailing on the date of transaction.
b. The difference between the rate at which the transactions are
accounted as stated above and the contracted rate is spread over the
life of the contract. The difference on account of fluctuation in the
rate of exchange is dealt with in the Statement of Profit and Loss .
c. Year end monetary assets are translated at year end rate of
exchange.
(x) Borrowing costs
Borrowing costs that are attributable to the acquisition, construction
or production of qualifying assets are capitalised as part of the cost
of such assets. A qualifying asset is one that necessarily takes a
substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use. All other
borrowing cost are charged to revenue.
(xi) Taxes on income
Provision for taxation is made on the basis of the taxable profits
computed for the current accounting period (reporting period) in
accordance with the Income Tax Act, 1961.
Deferred income taxes reflect the impact of current year's timing
differences between taxable income and accounting income of the year
and reversal of timing differences of earlier years.
Deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent there is reasonable
certainty that these assets can be realized in future.
(xii) Segment reporting
The accounting policies adopted for segment reporting are in conformity
with the accounting policies adopted for the Company. Further ,
inter-segment revenue have been accounted for based on the transaction
price agreed to between segments which is primarily market based.
Revenue and expenses have been identified to segments on the basis of
their relationship to the operating activities of the segment. Revenue
and expenses, which relate to the Company as a whole and are not
allocable to segments on a resonable basis, have been included under
"Unallocated expenses".
(xiii) Earnings per share
a. Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing the net profit
or loss for the period attributable to equity shareholders (after
deducting preference dividends and attributable taxes) by the weighted
average number of equity shares outstanding during the period. Partly
paid equity shares are treated as a fraction of an equity share to the
extent that they are entitiled to participate in dividends relative to
a fully paid equity share during the reporting period. The weighted
average number of equity shares outstanding during the period is
adjusted for events such as bonus issue, bonus element in a rights
issue, share split, and reverse share split (consolidation of shares)
that have changed the number of equity shares outstanding, without a
corresponding change in resources.
b. For the purpose of calculating diluted earnings per share, the net
profit or loss for the period attributable to equity shareholders and
the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period are
adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potential equity shares.
(xiv) Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets
A provision is recognised when an enterprise had present obligations as
a result of past event and it is probable that an outflow of resources
will be required to settle the obligation in respect of which reliable
estimates can be made. Provisions are not discounted to their present
value and are determined based on management estimates required to
settle the obligations at the balance sheet date.
These are reviewed at the balance sheet date and adjusted to reflect
the current management estimates.
(xv) Cash and cash equivalents
In the cash flow statement, cash and cash equivalents includes cash in
hand, demand deposits with banks, other short- term highly liquid
investments with original maturities of three months or less.
The Company has one class of equity shares having a par value of Rs
10/- per share. Each shareholder is eligible for one vote per share
held. The dividend proposed by the Board of Directors is subject to the
approval of the shareholders in the ensuing Annual General Meeting
except in case of interim dividend. In the event of liquidation, the
equity shareholders are eligible to receive the remaining assets of the
Company after distribution of all preferential amounts, in proportion
to their shareholding.
Mar 31, 2014
(i) Basis of accounting
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the
generally accepted accounting principles in India, on the basis of
going concern under the historical cost convention and also on accrual
basis. These financial statements comply, in all material aspects, with
the provisions of the Companies Act, 1956 and the Companies Act, 2013
(to the extent applicable) and also accounting standards prescribed by
the Companies (Accounting Standards) Rules, 2006, which continue to be
applicable in respect of Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 in
terms of General Circular 15/2013 dated September 13, 2013 of the
Ministry of Corporate Affairs.
All assets and liabilities have been classified as current or
non-current as per the Company''s normal operating cycle and other
criteria set out in the Schedule VI to the Companies Act, 1956. All the
divisions of the Company have normal operating cycle of less than
twelve months, hence a period of twelve months has been considered for
bifurcation of assets and liabilities into current and non-current as
required by Schedule VI to the Companies Act, 1956 for preparation of
Financial Statements.
Use of Estimate
The preparation of financial statement in conformity with the generally
accepted accounting principles requires estimates and assumptions to be
made that affect the reported amounts of the assets and liabilities on
the date of financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues
and expenses during the reporting period. Difference between actual
results and estimates are recognized in the period in which the results
get materialized.

cash generating unit to which the asset belongs is less than its
carrying amount, the carrying amout is reduced to its recoverable
amount. The reduction is treated as an impairment loss and is
recognised in the statement of profit and loss. If at the balance
sheet date there is an indication that if a previously assessed
impairment loss no longer exists, the recoverable amount is reassessed
and the asset is reflected at the recoverable amount.

acquisition cost is the fair value of the securities issued. If an
investment is acquired in exchange for another asset, the acquisition
cost of the investment is determined by reference to the fair value of
the asset given up or by reference to the fair value of the investment
acquired, whichever is more clearly evident.

average number of equity shares outstanding during the period is
adjuted for events such as bonus issue, bonus element in a rights
issue, share split, and reverse share split ( consolidation of shares )
that have changed the number of equity shares outstanding, without a
corresponding change in resources.
b. For the purpose of calculating diluted earnings per share, the net
profit or loss for the period attributable to equity shareholders and
the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period are
adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potential equity shares.
(xiv) Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets
A provision is recognised when an enterprise had present obligations as
a result of past event and it is probable that an outflow of resources
will be required to settle the obligation in respect of which reliable
estimates can be made. Provisions are not discounted to their present
value and are determined based on management estimates required to
settle the obligations at the balance sheet date.
These are reviewed at the balance sheet date and adjusted to reflect
the current management estimates.
