1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

i. Property Plant and Equipment

a) Property Plant and Equipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses.

b) The cost of property, plant and equipment includes those incurred directly for the construction or acquisition of the asset and directly attributable to bringing it to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by the management and includes the present value of expected cost for dismantling/ restoration wherever applicable.

c) The cost of major spares is recognised in the carrying amount of the item of property, plant and equipment in accordance with the recognition criteria set out in the standard. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognised at the time of actual replacement. The cost of the day-to-day servicing of the item are recognised in statement of profit and loss account.

ii. Intangible Assets

a) Intangible asset is recognised when it is probable that future economic benefits that are attributable to the asset will flow to the enterprise and the cost of the asset can be measured reliably. Expenditure incurred for creating infrastructure facilities where the ownership does not rest with the Company and where the benefits from it accrue to the Company over a future period is also considered as intangible asset.

b) New product development expenditure, software licences, technical know-how fee, infrastructure and logistic facilities etc., are recognised as intangible asset upon completion of development and commencement of commercial production

c) Intangible assets are amortised on straight line method over their technically estimated useful life.

d) Residual values and useful lives for all intangible assets are reviewed at each reporting date. Changes if any are accounted for as changes in accounting estimates.

iii. Impairment of Asset

a) Financial Assets

Company applies expected credit loss (ECL) model for measurement and recognition of impairment loss on the following financial assets and credit risk exposure:

1. Financial assets that are debt instruments and are measured at amortized cost whether applicable for e.g. loans debt securities, deposits, and bank balances.

2. Trade Receivables

Company follows ‘simplified approach’ for recognition of impairment loss allowance on trade receivables which do not contain a significant financing component. The application of simplified approach does not require the Company to track changes in credit risk. Rather, it recognises impairment loss allowance based on lifetime ECLs at each reporting date, right from its initial recognition.

b) Non - financial assets

Company assesses at each reporting date whether there is any objective evidence that a non-financial asset or a group of non-financial assets is impaired. If any such indication exists, the Company estimates the amount of impairment loss.

iv. Inventories

Items of inventories are valued at lower of cost or net realisable value after providing for obsolescence, if any. Cost of inventories comprises of cost of purchase, cost of conversion and other costs incurred in bringing them to their respective present location and condition. Cost of raw material is determined on FIFO method. Appropriate provisions will be made for non-moving / slow-moving items.

v. Foreign Currency Transactions

a) Transactions relating to non-monetary items and purchase and sale of goods / services denominated in foreign currency are recorded at the exchange rate prevailing or a rate that approximates the actual rate on the date of transaction.

b) Assets and liabilities in the nature of monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are translated and restated at prevailing exchange rates as at the end of the reporting period.

c) Exchange differences arising on account of settlement / conversion of foreign currency monetary items are recognised as expense or income in the period in which they arise.

d) Foreign currency gains and losses are reported on a net basis.

vi. Revenue Recognitions

Sales are recognised on dispatch of goods from the factory. In respect of export sales, the revenue is recognised on the basis of bill of lading. Miscellaneous sales are recognised on the basis of dispatch of goods. Other income such as interest etc., are recognised on accrual basis. Sales revenue is measured at fair value net of returns, trade discounts and volume rebates.

vii. Employee Benefits

a) Short term Benefits

All employee benefits falling due wholly within twelve months of rendering the service are classified as short-term employee benefits. The cost of the benefits like salaries, wages, medical, short term compensated absences, bonus, exgratia etc., are recognised as an expense in the period in which the employee renders the related service.

b) Post-employment benefits

1. Defined Contribution Plans

The contribution paid / payable under provident fund scheme, ESI scheme, and employee pension scheme is recognised as expenditure in the period in which the employee renders the related service.

2. Defined Benefit Plans

The Company’s obligation towards gratuity is a defined benefit plan. As there are frequent changes in workers/employees, the company record retirement benefits on cash basis.

viii. Borrowing Cost

a) Borrowing costs incurred for obtaining assets which take substantial period to get ready for their intended use are capitalised to the respective assets wherever the costs are directly attributable to such assets and in other cases by applying weighted average cost of borrowings to the expenditure on such assets.

b) Other borrowing costs are treated as expense for the year.

c) Significant transaction costs in respect of long-term borrowings are amortised over the tenor of respective loans using effective interest method.

ix. Provision for Current and Deferred Tax

a) Current Tax

The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profits differ from the profit as reported in the statement of profit and loss because of items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and items that are never taxable or deductible. The Company’s current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantially enacted by the end of the reporting period. In the event of tax computed as stated is less than the tax computed under section 115JB of the Income tax Act., 1961, provision for current tax will be made in accordance with such provisions.

b) Deferred Tax

Deferred tax is recognised on temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are generally recognised for all deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary differences can be utilised.

The carrying amount of deferred tax asset is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.

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

The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Company expects, at the end of the reporting period to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.

c) Current and deferred Tax for the year

Current and deferred tax are recognised in profit and loss, except when they relate to items that are recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case, the current and deferred tax are also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity respectively.

Deferred tax resulting from “timing difference” between taxable and accounting income is accounted for using the tax rates and laws that are enacted or substantively enacted as on the balance sheet date. Deferred tax asset is recognised and carried forward only to the extent there is reasonably certain that there will be sufficient future income to recover such Deferred Tax Asset.

x. Minimum Alternate Tax Credit

Minimum Alternate Tax Credit Entitlement is recognized in the books of account when there is convincing evidence that the Company will pay normal income tax during the specified period. The entitlement is reviewed at each balance sheet date with regard to the correctness of the carrying amount

xi. Research and Development

Research and Development Costs that are in the nature of tangible assets and are expected to generate probable future economic benefits are capitalised as tangible assets. Revenue expenditure on research and development is charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss in the year in which it is incurred.

xii. Claims

Claims by and against the Company, including liquidated damages, are recognised on acceptance basis.
