46. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

The Board of Directors (BOD) has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the Company’s risk management framework and thus established a risk management policy to identify and analyses the risk faced by the Company. Risk Management systems are reviewed by the BOD periodically to reflect changes in market conditions and the Company’s activities. The Company through its training and management standards and procedures develop a disciplined and constructive control environment in which all employees understand their roles and obligations. The Audit Committee oversees how management monitors compliance with the Company’s risk management policies and procedures, and reviews the risk management framework. The Audit committee is assisted in the oversight role by Internal Audit. Internal Audit undertakes reviews of the risk management controls and procedures, the results of which are reported to the Audit Committee.

The Board of Directors regularly reviews these risks and approves the risk management policies, which covers the management of these risks:

Credit Risk

Credit Risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if the customer or counterparty to the financial instruments fails to meet its contractual obligations and arises principally from the Company’s receivables, treasury operations and other operations that are in the nature of lease.

Receivables

The Company’s exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristic of each customer. The Company extends credit to its customers in the normal course of business by considering the factors such as financial reliability of customers. The Company evaluates the concentration of the risk with respect to trade receivables as low, as its customers are located in several jurisdictions and operate in largely independent markets. The Company maintains adequate security deposits from its customers in case of wholesale and retail segment. The exposures with the Government are generally unsecured but they are considered as good. However, unsecured credits are extended based on creditworthiness of the customers on case to case basis.

Financial Instruments and Cash deposits

I nvestments of surplus funds are made only with the approved counterparties. The Company is presently exposed to counter party risk relating to short term and medium term deposits placed with banks, and also investments made in mutual funds. The Company places its cash equivalents based on the creditworthiness of the financial institutions.

Liquidity Risk

Liquidity Risks are those risk that the Company will not be able to settle or meet its obligations on time or at reasonable price. In the management of liquidity risk, the Company monitors and maintains a level of cash and cash equivalents deemed adequate by the management to finance the Company’s operations and to mitigate the effects of fluctuations in cash flows.

Fund Management

Due to the dynamic nature of the underlying business, the Company aims at maintaining flexibility in funding by keeping both committed and uncommitted credit lines available. The Company has laid well defined policies and procedures facilitated by robust information system for timely and qualitative decision making by the management including its day to day operations

Foreign Currency Risk

The Company’s exposure in USD and other foreign currency denominated transactions in connection with import of raw material, capital goods and spares, besides exports of finished goods and borrowings in foreign currency, gives rise to exchange rate fluctuation risk. The Company has following policies to mitigate this risk:

Decisions regarding borrowing in Foreign Currency and hedging thereof, (both interest and exchange rate risk) and the quantum of coverage is driven by the necessity to keep the cost comparable. Foreign Currency loans, imports and exports transactions are hedged by way of forward contract after taking into consideration the anticipated Foreign exchange inflows/outflows, timing of cash flows, tenure of the forward contract and prevailing Foreign exchange market conditions.

Cash flow and fair value interest rate risk

Interest rate risk arises from long term borrowings with variable rates which exposed the company to cash flow interest rate risk. The Company’s fixed rate borrowing are carried at amortized cost and therefore are not subject to interest rate risk as defined in Ind AS 107 since neither the carrying amount nor the future cash flows will fluctuate because of the change in market interest rates. The Company is exposed to the evolution of interest rates and credit markets for its future refinancing, which may result in a lower or higher cost of financing, which is mainly addressed through the management of the fixed/floating ratio of financial liabilities. The Company constantly monitors credit markets to strategize a well-balanced maturity profile in order to reduce both the risk of refinancing and large fluctuations of its financing cost. The Company believes that it can source funds for both short term and long term at a competitive rate considering its strong fundamentals on its financial position. Sensitivity on interest rate fluctuation.

In order to achieve this overall objective, the Company’s capital management, amongst other things, aims to ensure that it meets financial covenants attached to the interest-bearing loans and borrowings that define capital structure requirements. There have been no breaches in the financial covenants of any interest-bearing loans/borrowing. The Company has been consistently focusing on reduction in long term borrowings. There are no significant changes in the objectives, policies or processes for managing capital during the years ended 31-03-2022 and 31-03-2021.

48. PROJECT REVENUE RECOGNITION

(d) Return on Equity Ratio = Total Comprehensive Income / Average Total Equity

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

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

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

(h) Net Capital Turnover Ratio = (Inventory Turnover Ratio Trade Receivable Turnover Ratio - Trade Payable Ratio)

(i) Net Profit Ratio = Net Profit / Total Income

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

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

Reasons for Variation if more than 25%

The increase in Debt-Equity Ratio by 29% from 0.17 times in previous year to 0.22 times in current year is mainly due to increased Working capital borrowing.

The increase in Debt-Service Coverage Ratio by 119% from 3.52 times in previous year to 7.73 times in current year is mainly due to Lower Term Loan repayments and reduced interest rates

The decline in Return on Equity Ratio by 26% from 15% in previous year to 11% in current year is mainly due to decrease in operational margin.

The decline in Return on Investment (Assets) Ratio by 25% from 10% in previous year to 7% in current year is mainly due to decrease in operational margin and increase in assets.

Mar 31, 2018

5. Significant Estimates and Judgements

The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities and the accompanying disclosures, and the disclosure of contingent liabilities. Actual results could vary from these estimates. The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an on-going basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision effects only that period or in the period of the revision or future periods, if the revision affects both current and future years.

Accordingly, the management has applied the following estimates / assumptions / judgements in preparation and presentation of financial statements:

Property, Plant and Equipment, Intangible Assets and Investment Properties

The residual values and estimated useful life of PPEs, Intangible Assets and Investment Properties are assessed by technical team duly reviewed by the management at each reporting date. Wherever the management believes that the assigned useful life and residual value are appropriate, such recommendations are accepted and adopted for computation of depreciation/amortisation. Also, management judgement is exercised for classifying the asset as investment properties or vice versa.

Current Taxes

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

Deferred Tax Asset (Including MAT Credit Entitlement)

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

Contingent Liabilities

Management judgement is exercised for estimating the possible outflow of resources, if any, in respect of contingencies / claims / litigations against the Company as it is not possible to predict the outcome of pending matters with accuracy.

Impairment of Trade receivables

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

Impairment of Non-financial assets (PPE/lntangible Assets/Investment Properties)

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

Defined Benefit Plans and Other Ions term benefits

The cost of the defined benefit plan and other long term benefits, and the present value of such obligation are determined by the independent actuarial valuer. Management believes that the assumptions used by the actuary in determination of the discount rate, future salary increases, mortality rates and attrition rates are reasonable. Due to the complexities involved in the valuation and its long term nature, this obligation is highly sensitive to changes in these assumptions.

Fair value measurement of financial instruments

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

Interests in other entities

Significant management judgement is exercised in determining the interests in other entities. The management believes that wherever there is significant influence over certain companies belong to its group, such companies are treated as Associate companies even though it holds less than 20% of the voting rights.

(a) As per the Guidance Note on Division II, Ind AS Schedule III to the Companies Act, 2013 issued by ICAI, Revenue includes only the gross inflows of economic benefits received and receivable by the entity on its own account. Amounts collected such as sales taxes, goods and services taxes and value added taxes are not economic benefits which flow to the entity and do not result in increases in equity. Therefore, they have excluded from revenue. On the other hand, the recovery of excise duty is an inflow that the entity receives on its own account since the Company acts as a principal in collecting the excise duty and therefore the revenue has grossed up to include excise duty.

43. Disclosure of Fair value measurements

The fair values of financial assets and liabilities are determined at the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale. Fair value of cash and short-term deposits, trade and other short term receivables, trade payables, other current liabilities, short term loans from banks and other financial instruments approximate their carrying amounts largely due to their short term maturities of these instruments.

are located in several jurisdictions and operate in largely independent markets. The Company maintains adequate security deposits from its customers in case of wholesale and retail segment. The exposures with the Government are generally unsecured but they are considered as good. However, unsecured credits are extended based on creditworthiness of the customers on case to case basis.

Financial instruments and cash deposits

Investments of surplus funds are made only with the approved counterparties. The Company is presently exposed to counter party risk relating to short term and medium term deposits placed with banks, and also investments made in mutual funds. The Company places its cash equivalents based on the creditworthiness of the financial institutions.

Liquidity Risk

Liquidity Risks are those risk that the Company will not be able to settle or meet its obligations on time or at reasonable price. In the management of liquidity risk, the Company monitors and maintains a level of cash and cash equivalents deemed adequate by the management to finance the company’s operations and to mitigate the effects of fluctuations in cash flows. Due to the dynamic nature of the underlying business, the Company aims at maintaining flexibility in funding by keeping both committed and uncommitted credit lines available. The Company has laid well defined policies and procedures facilitated by robust information system for timely and qualitative decision making by the management including its day to day operations.

Foreign Currency Risk

The Company’s exposure in USD and other foreign currency denominated transactions in connection with import of raw material, capital goods and spares, besides exports of finished goods and borrowings in foreign currency, gives rise to exchange rate fluctuation risk. The Company has following policies to mitigate this risk:

Decisions regarding borrowing in Foreign Currency and hedging thereof, (both interest and exchange rate risk) and the quantum of coverage is driven by the necessity to keep the cost comparable. Foreign Currency loans, imports and exports transactions are hedged by way of forward contract after taking into consideration the anticipated Foreign exchange inflows/ outflows, timing of cash flows, tenure of the forward contract and prevailing Foreign exchange market conditions.

Cash flow and fair value interest rate risk

Interest rate risk arises from long term borrowings with variable rates which exposed the company to cash flow interest rate risk. The Company’s fixed rate borrowing are carried at amortized cost and therefore are not subject to interest rate risk as defined in Ind AS 107 since neither the carrying amount nor the future cash flows will fluctuate because of the change in market interest rates. The Company is exposed to the evolution of interest rates and credit markets for its future refinancing, which may result in a lower or higher cost of financing, which is mainly addressed through the management of the fixed/ floating ratio of financial liabilities. The Company constantly monitors credit markets to strategize a well-balanced maturity profile in order to reduce both the risk of refinancing and large fluctuations of its financing cost. The Company believes that it can source funds for both short term and long term at a competitive rate considering its strong fundamentals on its financial position.

The Audit Committee oversees how management monitors compliance with the Company’s risk management policies and procedures, and reviews the risk management framework. The Audit committee is assisted in the oversight role by Internal Audit. Internal Audit undertakes reviews of the risk management controls and procedures, the results of which are reported to the Audit Committee.

The Board of Directors regularly reviews these risks and approves the risk management policies, which covers the management of these risks:

Credit Risk

Credit Risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if the customer or counterparty to the financial instruments fails to meet its contractual obligations and arises principally from the Company’s receivables, treasury operations and other operations that are in the nature of lease.

Receivables

The Company’s exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristic of each customer. The Company extends credit to its customers in the normal course of business by considering the factors such as financial reliability of customers. The Company evaluates the concentration of the risk with respect to trade receivables as low, as its customers are located in several jurisdictions and operate in largely independent markets. The Company maintains adequate security deposits from its customers in case of wholesale and retail segment. The exposures with the Government are generally unsecured but they are considered as good. However, unsecured credits are extended based on creditworthiness of the customers on case to case basis.

Trade receivables are written off when there is no reasonable expectation of recovery, such as a debtor declaring bankruptcy or failing to engage in a repayment plan with the company and where there is a probability of default, the company creates a provision based on Expected Credit Loss for trade receivables under simplified approach as below:

Note: Provision amount of receivables relating to legal case Rs.46.54 lakhs

Other disputed Rs.27.23 lakhs Total Rs.73.77 lakhs

Financial instruments and cash deposits

Investments of surplus funds are made only with the approved counterparties.

The Company places its cash equivalents based on the creditworthiness of the financial institutions.

Liquidity Risk

Liquidity Risks are those risk that the Company will not be able to settle or meet its obligations on time or at reasonable price. In the management of liquidity risk, the Company monitors and maintains a level of cash and cash equivalents deemed adequate by the management to finance the company’s operations and to mitigate the effects of fluctuations in cash flows. Due to the dynamic nature of the underlying business, the Company aims at maintaining flexibility in funding by keeping both committed and uncommitted credit lines available. The Company has laid well defined policies and procedures facilitated by robust information system for timely and qualitative decision making by the management including its day to day operations.

Foreign Currency Risk

The Company’s exposure in USD and other foreign currency denominated transactions in connection with import of raw material, capital goods and spares, besides exports of finished goods and borrowings in foreign currency, gives rise to exchange rate fluctuation risk. The Company has following policies to mitigate this risk:

Decisions regarding borrowing in Foreign Currency and hedging thereof, (both interest and exchange rate risk) and the quantum of coverage is driven by the necessity to keep the cost comparable. Foreign Currency loans, imports and exports transactions are hedged by way of forward contract after taking into consideration the anticipated Foreign exchange inflows/ outflows, timing of cash flows, tenure of the forward contract and prevailing Foreign exchange market conditions.

Cash flow and fair value interest rate risk

Interest rate risk arises from long term borrowings with variable rates which exposed the company to cash flow interest rate risk. The Company’s fixed rate borrowing are carried at amortized cost and therefore are not subject to interest rate risk as defined in Ind AS 107 since neither the carrying amount nor the future cash flows will fluctuate because of the change in market interest rates. The Company is exposed to the evolution of interest rates and credit markets for its future refinancing, which may result in a lower or higher cost of financing, which is mainly addressed through the management of the fixed/ floating ratio of financial liabilities. The Company constantly monitors credit markets to strategize a well-balanced maturity profile in order to reduce both the risk of refinancing and large fluctuations of its financing cost. The Company believes that it can source funds for both short term and long term at a competitive rate considering its strong fundamentals on its financial position. Sensitivity on interest rate fluctuation

However, under Ind AS, this has been taken through profit and loss for the year ended 31-3-2016 as it not a GAAP difference.

B. Leasehold Land

Lease prepayments made for Leasehold land were classified as Leasehold Land under previous GAAP.

Accordingly, lease prepayments as at 1-4-2015 are reclassified from Property, Plant and Equipment into Prepaid expenses.

Under Ind AS, the Company is required to measure the investments in mutual funds at fair value through profit & loss and accordingly recognized the fair value gain/loss in Opening Equity or in the Statement of Profit and Loss for the year ended 31-3-2016. Under previous GAAP, long term equity instruments were measured at cost less provision for permanent diminution. In respect of investments in companies other than in Subsidiary and Associates, the Company is required to designate such investments necessarily at fair value. Therefore, the Company has designated such investments as FVTOCI Investments. At the date of transition to Ind AS, the excess /deficit of fair value of equity instruments over the previous GAAP carrying amount is recognized as fair value gain/loss, in the FVTOCI reserve/Other Comprehensive Income for the year ended 31-3-2016.

Where guarantees in relation to loans are provided for no compensation, the fair values are accounted for as contributions and recognized as part of the cost of the investment if the loan is given to Associate/Subsidiary, and recognized as Other expenses if the loan is given to other related parties. The carrying amount of financial guarantee obligation is recognized as other income over the tenure of the corporate guarantee.

G. Presentation of MAT Credit Entitlement as ‘Deferred Tax Assets''

For the year ended 31-3-2016, the Company has reversed the transaction cost pertaining to the Borrowings availed during the year 2015-16 and the additional Interest impact computed using EIR method is recognized as Finance cost.

J. Recognition and Measurement of Forward Contracts on Mark To Market (MTM)

Under Ind AS, the fair value of forward foreign exchange contracts has to be recognized. Accordingly, the assets and liabilities related to forward contracts recognized under previous GAAP are reversed and Mark to Market (MTM) gain/loss is recognized as other expenses in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

K. Deferred Tax

Deferred tax is accounted using income statement approach by computing the differences between taxable profits and accounting profits for the period under previous GAAP. As per Ind AS 12, the deferred tax is to be computed using the balance sheet approach, which is based on temporary differences between the carrying amount of an asset or liability in the balance sheet and its tax base. Deferred tax adjustments are recognized either in retained earnings or a separate component of equity.

L. Security Deposits from Customers & Service Providers

The company has presented the Security deposits from Customers & Service providers as Non-current liability under previous GAAP as per the FAQ on Schedule III to the Companies Act 2013 issued by ICAI based on the fact that company’s past record shows that these deposits are not generally claimed and hence it was appropriate to treat it as non-current liability. However, as per Educational material issued by ICAI on Ind AS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements, such deposits have to be classified under Current Financial Liability only in view of the fact that the Company does not have the unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability. Accordingly, the Company has reclassified Security Deposits from Customers/Service providers from non-current liability to other current financial liabilities.

Under Ind AS re-measurements of net defined benefit asset/liability comprising of actuarial gains or losses are arising from experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumption are charged/credited to other comprehensive income.

Q. Bank Overdraft

Under previous GAAP, bank overdrafts were considered as part of borrowings and movements in the same were shown as part of financing activities.
