Authorisation of Financial Statements: The financial statements were authorised for issue in accordance with a resolution of the directors on 25th May 2023
The financial statements are prepared in accordance with the Indian Accounting Standards (hereinafter referred to as the âInd ASâ) as notified by Ministry of Corporate Affairs pursuant to Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 read with Rule 3 of the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 and the other relevant provisions of the Act and rules thereunder.
The Financial Statements have been prepared under historical cost convention basis except
a. Certain financial assets and financial liabilities measured at fair value (refer accounting policies for financial instruments).
b. Defined Benefits plans âPlan assets measured at Fair Value
The accounting policies are applied consistently to all the periods presented in the financial statements 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.
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with Ind AS, requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions. These estimates, judgments and assumptions affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the period. Accounting estimates could change from period to period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Appropriate changes in estimates are made as management becomes aware of changes in circumstances surrounding the estimates. 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.
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or settle a liability in an ordinary transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value of an asset or a liability is measured using the assumption that market participants would use when pricing an asset or liability acting in their best economic interest. The Company used valuation techniques, which were appropriate in circumstances and for which sufficient data were available considering the expected loss/ profit in case of financial assets or liabilities.
Cash flows are reported using the indirect method, whereby profit / (loss) before extraordinary items and tax is adjusted for the effects of transactions of non-cash nature and any deferrals or accruals of past or future 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.
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost of acquisition less accumulated depreciation and impairment, if any.
The cost comprises of purchase price, taxes, duties, freight and other incidental expenses directly attributable and related to acquisition of the concerned assets and are further adjusted by the amount of Input Credit of taxes availed wherever applicable.
Property, plant and equipment which are not ready for intended use as on the date of Balance Sheet date are disclosed as âCapital work-in-progressâ.
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 asset.
The residual values are not more than 5% of the original cost of the Asset. The Property, plant and equipmentâs residual values and useful lives are reviewed at each Balance Sheet date and changes, if any, are treated as changes in accounting estimate.
The Company has applied principles of Ind AS 16 retrospectively from date of acquisition and considered the same as deemed cost in accordance with Ind AS 101 First Time adoption. On transition to Ind-AS, the Company has elected to continue with the carrying value of intangible assets recognised as at April 01, 2016 measured as per IGAAP as the deemed cost of assets.
The estimated useful lives considered of Property, Plant and Equipment of the Company are as follows:
Wind Turbine Generators |
22 Years |
Leasehold Land |
Shorter of lease period or estimated useful lives |
Plant and Equipment |
25 Years |
Furniture and Fixtures |
10 Years |
Computer software |
3 Years |
Vehicles |
8 Years |
Office Equipment |
5 Years |
Intangible assets acquired are measured on initial recognition at cost. Following initial recognition, intangible assets are carried at cost less any accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses, if any.
Depreciation of these assets commences when the assets are ready for their intended use. Items of property, plant and equipment are depreciated in a manner that amortizes the cost (or other amount substituted for cost) of the assets, less its residual value, over their useful lives as specified in Schedule II of the Companies Act, 2013 on a written down value basis except Lease Hold Land on which straight line basis depreciation is charged.
Investments, which are readily realisable 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 non current investments.
Long-term investments (excluding investment properties), are carried individually at cost less provision for diminution, other than temporary, in the value of such investments. Current investments are carried individually, at the lower of cost and fair value. Cost of investments includes acquisition charges such as brokerage, fees and duties.
Investments in subsidiaries are carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses, if any. Where an indication of impairment exists, the carrying amount of the investment is assessed and written down immediately to its recoverable amount. On disposal of investments in subsidiaries, the difference between net disposal proceeds and the carrying amounts are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss. Upon first-time adoption of Ind AS, the Company has elected to measure its investments in subsidiaries at the Previous GAAP carrying amount as its deemed cost on the date of transition to Ind AS i.e., April 01, 2016.
Operating Lease:
Company as Lessee - Leases, where the lessor effectively retains substantially all the risks and benefits of ownership of the leased item, are classified as operating leases. Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense in the statement of profit and loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Initial direct costs such as legal costs, brokerage costs, etc. are recognised immediately in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost of inventories have been computed to include all cost of purchase, and other cost incurred in bringing the goods to the present location and condition.
The cost is determined using the First in First Out Basis (FIFO) .
The Company considers all highly liquid financial instruments, which are readily convertible into known amounts of cash that are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value and having original maturities of three months or less from the date of purchase, to be cash equivalents.
Income tax expense comprises current tax expense and the net change in the deferred tax asset or liability during the year. Current and deferred tax are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss, except when they relate to items that are recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case, the current and deferred tax are also recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, respectively.
Current income tax for the current and prior periods are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities based on the taxable income for that period. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date.
Current tax assets and liabilities are offset only if, the Company:
- has a legally enforceable right to set off the recognized amounts; and
- Intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
Deferred tax is recognized for the future tax consequences of deductible temporary differences between the carrying values of assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases at the reporting date, using the tax rates and laws that are enacted or substantively enacted as on reporting date.
Deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probable that future taxable income will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, unused tax losses and credits can be utilized.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset only if:
- Entity has a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities; and
- Deferred tax assets and the deferred tax liabilities relate to the income taxes levied by the same taxation authority.
(a) Initial recognition and measurement
On initial recognition, a financial asset is 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. However, Trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component are measured at transaction price.
Subsequent measurement is determined with reference to the classification of the respective financial assets. The Company classifies financial assets as subsequently measured at amortised cost, fair value through other comprehensive income or fair value through profit or loss on the basis of its business model for managing the financial assets and the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial asset.
(i) Debt Instruments
A âdebt instrumentâ is measured at the amortised cost if both the following conditions are met:
- The asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets for collecting contractual cash flows, and
- Contractual terms of the asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest (SPPI) on the principal amount outstanding.
After initial measurement, such financial assets are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate (EIR) method. Amortised cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium and fees or costs that are an integral part of the EIR. The EIR amortisation is included in finance income in the Statement of Profit & Loss. The losses arising from impairment are recognised in the Statement of Profit & Loss.
(ia) Debt instruments at Fair value through Other Comprehensive Income (FVOCI)
A âdebt instrumentâ is measured at the fair value through other comprehensive income if both the following conditions are met:
- The asset is held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets
- Contractual terms of the asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest (SPPI) on the principal amount outstanding.
After initial measurement, these assets are subsequently measured at fair value. Interest income under effective interest method, foreign exchange gains and losses and impairment are recognised in the Statement of Profit & Loss. Other net gains and losses are recognised in other comprehensive Income.
(ib) Debt instruments at Fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL)
Fair value through profit or loss is a residual category for debt instruments. Any debt instrument, which does not meet the criteria for categorisation as at amortised cost or as FVOCI, is classified as at FVTPL.
(ii) Equity Instruments
All equity investments in scope of Ind-AS 109 are measured at fair value. Equity instruments which are held for trading are classified as at FVTPL. For all other equity instruments, the Company decides to classify the same either as at FVOCI or FVTPL. The Company makes such election on an instrument-by-instrument basis. The classification is made on initial recognition and is irrevocable.
For equity instruments classified as FVOCI, all fair value changes on the instrument, excluding dividends, are recognized in other comprehensive income (OCI).
Equity instruments included within the FVTPL category are measured at fair value with all changes recognized in the Statement of Profit & Loss.
(c) Derecognition
A financial asset (or, where applicable, a part of a financial asset or part of a group of similar financial assets) is primarily derecognised (i.e. removed from the Companyâs Balance Sheet) when:
(i) The rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired, or
(ii) The Company has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from the 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:
- The Company has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, or
- The Company has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, but has transferred control of the asset.
Impairment of financial assets
The Company measures the expected credit loss associated with its assets based on historical trend, industry practices and the Business environment in which the entity operates or any other appropriate basis. The impairment methodology applied depends on whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk.
Income Recognition
Interest Income from debt instruments is recognised using the effective interest rate method.
Initial recognition and measurement
All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value net of transaction costs that are attributable to the respective liabilities. Subsequent measurement
Subsequent measurement is determined with reference to the classification of the respective financial liabilities.
The measurement of Financial liabilities depends on their classification, as described below:
(i) Financial Liabilities at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL)
A financial liability is classified as at fair value through profit or loss if it is classified as held-for-trading or is designated as such on initial recognition. Financial liabilities at FVTPL are measured at fair value and changes therein, including any interest expense, are recognised in Statement of Profit & Loss.
(ii) Financial Liabilities measured at amortised cost
After initial recognition, financial liabilities other than those which are classified as fair value through profit or loss are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method (âEIRâ).
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 & Loss.
Derecognition
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 derecognition 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 & 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 recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis, or to realise the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.
In determining the fair value of its financial instruments, the Company uses following hierarchy and assumptions that are based on market conditions and risks existing at each reporting date.
Fair Value Hierarchy
All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the 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 : Quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
- Level 2 : Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is directly or indirectly observable
- Level 3 : 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 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.
All assets and liabilities are classified as current or non-current as per the Companyâs normal operating cycle (determined at 12 months) and other criteria set out in Schedule III of the Act.
Revenue from contracts with customers is recognised 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. The Company has generally concluded that it is the principal in its revenue arrangements, because it typically controls the goods or services before transferring them to the customer.
Revenue is measured based on the transaction price (which is the consideration, adjusted to discounts, incentives and returns, etc., if any) that is allocated to that performance obligation. These are generally accounted for as variable consideration estimated in the same period the related sales occur. The methodology and assumptions used to estimate rebates and returns are monitored and adjusted regularly in the light of contractual and legal obligations, historical trends, past experience and projected market conditions.
Revenue from sale of products and services are recognised at the time of satisfaction of performance obligation. The period over which revenue is recognised is based on entityâs right to payment for performance completed. In determining whether an entity has right to payment, the entity shall consider whether it would have an enforceable right to demand or retain payment for performance completed to date if the contract were to be terminated before completion for reasons other than entityâs failure to perform as per the terms of the contract.
Trade receivables are amounts due from customers for goods sold or services performed in the ordinary course of business and reflects companyâs unconditional right to consideration (that is, payment is due only on the passage of time). Trade receivables are recognised initially at the transaction price as they do not contain significant financing components.
The company holds the trade receivables with the objective of collecting the contractual cash flows and therefore measures them subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less loss allowance.
Export Incentives under various schemes are accounted in the year of export.
Interest income is recognized on time proportion basis taking into account the amount outstanding and the rate applicable.
Dividends are recognized 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.
Functional and presentation currency
The financial statements are presented in Indian rupee (INR), which is Companyâs functional and presentation currency. All amounts have been rounded off to the nearest lakhs, unless otherwise indicated.
Transactions in foreign currencies are recorded at the exchange rate prevailing on the date of transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the functional currency closing rates of exchange at the reporting date.
Monetary Items
Exchange differences arising on settlement or translation of monetary items are recognized in Statement of Profit and Loss except to the extent of exchange differences which are regarded as an adjustment to interest costs on foreign currency borrowings that are directly attributable to the acquisition or construction of qualifying assets, are capitalized as cost of assets.
Non - Monetary Items
Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are recorded using the exchange rates at the date of the transaction.
Employee benefits include provident fund, gratuity fund and compensated absences.
(a) Defined contribution plans
The Companyâs contribution to provident fund are considered as defined contribution plans and are charged as an expense as they fall due based on the amount of contribution required to be made.
(b) Defined benefit plans
Defined Benefit Plan i.e. gratuity is recognised on accrual basis based on the actuarial valuation in accordance with the requirement of Ind AS 19.
Payment for present liability of future payment of gratuity is being made to approve gratuity fund, which fully covers the same under Cash Accumulation Policy and Debt fund of the PNB Met Life Insurance Company Ltd. However, any deficit in plan assets managed by PNB Met Life Insurance as compared to the liability on the basis of an independent actuarial valuation is recognized as a liability. 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 in conformity with the principles and manner of computation specified in Ind AS 19. 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.
(c) Privilege leave entitlements
Privilege leave entitlements are recognized as a liability, in the calendar year of rendering of service, as per the rules of the Company. As accumulated leave can be availed and/or encashed at any time during the tenure of employment, subject to terms and conditions of the scheme, the liability is recognized on the basis of an actual working based on balance days of accumulated leave.
Borrowing cost directly attributable to development of qualifying assets are capitalized till the date qualifying assets is ready for put to use for its intended purpose as part of cost of that assets .Other borrowing cost are recognised as expenses in the period in which they are incurred.
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker.
The basic earnings per share is computed by dividing the net profit attributable to equity shareholders for the period by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period. The number of shares used in computing diluted earnings per share comprises the weighted average shares considered for deriving basic earnings per share, and also the weighted average number of equity shares which could be issued on the conversion of all dilutive potential equity shares.
The carrying values of assets/cash generating unit at each Balance Sheet date are reviewed for impairment. If any indication of impairment exists, the recoverable amount of such assets is estimated and impairment is recognized, if the carrying amount of these assets exceeds their recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the greater of the net selling price and therein value in use. Value in use is arrived at by discounting the future cash flows to their present value based on an appropriate discount factor. When there is indication than an impairment loss recognized for an asset in earlier accounting periods no longer exists or may have decreased, such reversal of impairment loss is recognized in the statement of profit and loss except in case of revalued assets.
The Company recognizes provisions when a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event exists and it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle such obligation and the amount of such obligation can be reliably estimated.
If the effect of 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.
A disclosure for a contingent liability is made when there is a possible obligation or a present obligation that may, but probably will not require an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits or the amount of such obligation cannot be measured reliably. When there is a possible obligation or a present obligation in respect of which likelihood of outflow of resources embodying economic benefits is remote, no provision or disclosure is made.
The preparation of financial statements requires the use of accounting estimates which, by definition, will seldom equal the actual results. Management also needs to exercise Judgement in applying the Companyâs accounting policies.
The estimates and judgements involves a higher degree of judgement or complexity, and of items which are more likely to be materially adjusted due to estimates and assumptions turning out to be different than those originally assessed .Detailed information about each of these estimates and judgements is included in relevant notes.
Critical estimates and judgements
The areas involving critical estimates or judgements are:
a. Estimation of current tax expenses and payable
b. Estimated useful life of Intangible assets
c. Estimation of defined benefit obligation
d. Estimation of Provisions and Contingencies
e. Estimation of Incremental Borrowing rate âLeases

The accounting policies are applied consistently to all the periods presented in the financial statements 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. All assets and liabilities have been classified as current or non current as per the Companyâs normal operating cycle and other criteria as set out in the Division II of Schedule III to the Companies Act, 2013.
1.2 Use of estimates
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with Ind AS, requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions. These estimates, judgments and assumptions affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the period. Accounting estimates could change from period to period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Appropriate changes in estimates are made as management becomes aware of changes in circumstances surrounding the estimates. 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.
1.3 Fair Value Remeasurements:
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or settle a liability in an ordinary transaction between market participants at the measurement date.

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 asset.
The residual values are not more than 5% of the original cost of the Asset. The Property, plant and equipmentâs residual values and useful lives are reviewed at each Balance Sheet date and changes, if any, are treated as changes in accounting estimate.
The Company has applied principles of Ind AS 16 retrospectively from date of acquisition and considered the same as deemed cost in accordance with Ind AS 101 First Time adoption. On transition to Ind-AS, the Company has elected to continue with the carrying value of intangible assets recognised as at April 01, 2016 measured as per IGAAP as the deemed cost of assets.

A financial asset (or, where applicable, a part of a financial asset or part of a group of similar financial assets) is primarily derecognised (i.e. removed from the Companyâs Balance Sheet) when:
(i) The rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired, or
(ii) The Company has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from the 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:
-The Company has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, or
-The Company has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, but has transferred control of the asset.
Impairment of financial assets
The Company measures the expected credit loss associated with its assets based on historical trend, industry practices and the Business environment in which the entity operates or any other appropriate basis. The impairment methodology applied depends on whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk.
Income Recognition
Interest Income from debt instruments is recognised using the effective interest rate method.
1.14 Financial Liabilities
Initial recognition and measurement
All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value net of transaction costs that are attributable to the respective liabilities.
Subsequent measurement
Subsequent measurement is determined with reference to the classification of the respective financial liabilities.
The measurement of Financial liabilities depends on their classification, as described below:
(i) Financial Liabilities at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL)
A financial liability is classified as at fair value through profit or loss if it is classified as held-for-trading or is designated as such on initial recognition. Financial liabilities at FVTPL are measured at fair value and changes therein, including any interest expense, are recognised in Statement of Profit & Loss.
(ii) Financial Liabilities measured at amortised cost
After initial recognition, financial liabilities other than those which are classified as fair value through profit or loss are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method (âEIRâ).
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 & Loss. Derecognition
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 derecognition 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 & Loss.
1.15 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 recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis, or to realise the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.
1.16 Fair Value of Financial Instruments
In determining the fair value of its financial instruments, the Company uses following hierarchy and assumptions that are based on market conditions and risks existing at each reporting date.
Fair Value Hierarchy
All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the 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 : Quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
- Level 2 : Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is directly or indirectly observable
- Level 3 : 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 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.
1.17 Classification of Assets and Liabilities as Current and Non-Current:
All assets and liabilities are classified as current or non-current as per the Companyâs normal operating cycle (determined at 12 months) and other criteria set out in Schedule III of the Act.
1.18 Revenue recognition
(a) Sale of Goods
Timing of recognition
Revenue from sale of goods is recognized when all the significant risks and rewards of ownership in the goods are transferred to the buyer as per the terms of the contract, there is no continuing managerial involvement with the goods, the amount of revenue can be measured reliably and it is probable that future economic benefits will flow to the entity and specific criteria have been met for each of the activities of the Company. This generally happens upon dispatch of the goods to customers, except for export sales which are recognized when significant risk and rewards are transferred to the buyer as per the terms of contract.
Based on the Educational Material on Ind AS 18 issued by the ICAI, the sales tax/ value added tax (VAT)/ Goods and Service tax (GST) is not received by the Company on its own account. Rather, it is tax collected on value added to the commodity by the seller on behalf of the government. Accordingly, it is excluded from revenue. The specific recognition criteria described below must also be met before revenue is recognised.
Revenue from Sale of Services rendered are recognonised on accrual basis as per terms of the contract.
Eligible export incentives and grants are recognized in the year in which the conditions precedent are met and there is no significant uncertainty about the collectability.
Measurement of revenue
Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable. Amount disclosed as revenue are inclusive of excise duty and net of, any trade discounts, volume rebates and any taxes or duties collected on behalf of the Government which are levied on sales such as sales tax, value added tax, goods and service tax (GST) etc. Revenue is recorded net of Duties and Taxes. Discounts given include rebates, price reductions and other incentives given to customers. The Company bases its estimates on historical results, taking into consideration the type of customer, the type of transaction and the specifics of each arrangement. No element of financing is deemed present as sales are made with a credit term which is consistent with market practice.
(b) Other income
Interest income is recognized on time proportion basis taking into account the amount outstanding and the rate applicable.
Dividends are recognized 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.
1.19 Foreign currency Translations Functional and presentation currency
The financial statements are presented in Indian rupee (INR), which is Companyâs functional and presentation currency. Transactions and Balances
Transactions in foreign currencies are recorded at the exchange rate prevailing on the date of transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the functional currency closing rates of exchange at the reporting date.
Monetary Items
Exchange differences arising on settlement or translation of monetary items are recognized in Statement of Profit and Loss except to the extent of exchange differences which are regarded as an adjustment to interest costs on foreign currency borrowings that are directly attributable to the acquisition or construction of qualifying assets, are capitalized as cost of assets. Non - Monetary Items
Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are recorded using the exchange rates at the date of the transaction.
1.20 Employee benefits
Employee benefits include provident fund, gratuity fund and compensated absences.
(a) Defined contribution plans
The Companyâs contribution to provident fund are considered as defined contribution plans and are charged as an expense as they fall due based on the amount of contribution required to be made.
(b) Defined benefit plans
Defined Benefit Plan i.e. gratuity is recognised on accrual basis based on the actuarial valuation in accordance with the requirement of Ind AS 19.
Payment for present liability of future payment of gratuity is being made to approve gratuity fund, which fully covers the same under Cash Accumulation Policy and Debt fund of the PNB Met Life Insurance Company Ltd. However, any deficit in plan assets managed by PNB Met Life Insurance as compared to the liability on the basis of an independent actuarial valuation is recognized as a liability. 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 in conformity with the principles and manner of computation specified in Ind AS 19. 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.
(c) Privilege leave entitlements
Privilege leave entitlements are recognized as a liability, in the calendar year of rendering of service, as per the rules of the Company. As accumulated leave can be availed and/or encashed at any time during the tenure of employment, subject to terms and conditions of the scheme, the liability is recognized on the basis of an actual working based on balance days of accumulated leave.
1.21 Borrowing costs
Borrowing cost directly attributable to development of qualifying assets are capitalized till the date qualifying assets is ready for put to use for its intended purpose as part of cost of that assets .Other borrowing cost are recognised as expenses in the period in which they are incurred.
1.22 Segment reporting
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker.
1.23 Earnings per share
The basic earnings per share is computed by dividing the net profit attributable to equity shareholders for the period by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period. The number of shares used in computing diluted earnings per share comprises the weighted average shares considered for deriving basic earnings per share, and also the weighted average number of equity shares which could be issued on the conversion of all dilutive potential equity shares.
1.24 Impairment of Non-financial assets
The carrying values of assets/cash generating unit at each Balance Sheet date are reviewed for impairment. If any indication of impairment exists, the recoverable amount of such assets is estimated and impairment is recognized, if the carrying amount of these assets exceeds their recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the greater of the net selling price and therein value in use. Value in use is arrived at by discounting the future cash flows to their present value based on an appropriate discount factor. When there is indication that an impairment loss recognized for an asset in earlier accounting periods no longer exists or may have decreased, such reversal of impairment loss is recognized in the statement of profit and loss except in case of revalued assets.
1.25 Provisions
The Company recognizes provisions when a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event exists and it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle such obligation and the amount of such obligation can be reliably estimated.
If the effect of 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.
1.26 Contingent Liabilities
A disclosure for a contingent liability is made when there is a possible obligation or a present obligation that may, but probably will not require an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits or the amount of such obligation cannot be measured reliably. When there is a possible obligation or a present obligation in respect of which likelihood of outflow of resources embodying economic benefits is remote, no provision or disclosure is made.

Amounts accumulated in the âHedging reserve accountâ are reclassified to the Statement of Profit and Loss in the same periods during which the forecasted transaction affects profit and loss. Hedge accounting is discontinued when the hedging instrument expires or is sold, terminated, or exercised, or no longer qualifies for hedge accounting. For forecasted transactions, any cumulative gain or loss on the hedging instrument recognized in âHedging reserve accountâ is retained until the forecasted transaction occurs. If the forecasted transaction is no longer expected to occur, the net cumulative gain or loss recognized in âHedging reserve accountâ is immediately transferred to the Statement of Profit and Loss.
2.18 Derivative contracts
The Company enters into derivative contracts in the nature of foreign currency forward contracts with an intention to hedge its existing assets and liabilities, firm commitments and highly probable transactions. Derivative contracts which are closely linked to the existing assets and liabilities are accounted as per the policy stated for Foreign Currency Transactions and Translations.

As on balance sheet date, profit/ loss on open position in commodities futures are accounted as follows
- Credit Balance in the âMark to Market Margin Accountâ being anticipated profit is ignored and no profit for the same is taken in the profit and loss account.
- Debit balance in the âMark to Market Margin Accountâ being anticipated loss is charged to profit and loss account. Settlement and Squaring up of contract is accounted as follows
- On final delivery settlement the difference between the settlement price and contract price is added/reduced from/to sale/purchase
- On squaring up of the contract the difference between the squared up price and contract price is recognized in profit and loss account
When more than one contract in respect of the relevant series of commodity future contract to which the settled/squared up contract pertains is outstanding at the time of settlement/squaring up of the contract, the contract price is determined using weighted average method for calculating the difference/ profit/loss on settlement/squaring up.

all timing differences. Deferred tax assets in respect of unabsorbed
depreciation and carry forward of losses are recognised only if there

The carrying values of assets / cash generating units at each Balance
Sheet date are reviewed for impairment. If any indication of impairment
exists, the recoverable amount of such assets is estimated and
impairment is recognised, if the carrying amount of these assets
exceeds their recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the greater
of the net selling price and their value in use. Value in use is
arrived at by discounting the future cash flows to their present value
based on an appropriate discount factor. When there is indication that
an impairment loss recognised for an asset in earlier accounting
periods no longer exists or may have decreased, such reversal of
impairment loss is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss,
except in case of revalued assets.

Balance Sheet date. These are reviewed at each Balance Sheet date and
adjusted to reflect the current best estimates. Contingent liabilities
are disclosed in the Notes.

contracts in a cash flow hedging relationship by applying the hedge
accounting principles set out in "Accounting Standard 30 Financial
Instruments: Recognition and Measurement". These forward contracts
are stated at fair value at each reporting date. Changes in the fair
value of these forward contracts that are designated and effective as
hedges of future cash flows are recognised directly in "Hedging
reserve account" under Reserves and surplus, net of applicable
deferred income taxes and the ineffective portion is recognised
immediately in the Statement of Profit and Loss. Amounts accumulated in
the "Hedging reserve account" are reclassified to the Statement of
Profit and Loss in the same periods during which the forecasted
transaction affects profit and loss. Hedge accounting is discontinued
when the hedging instrument expires or is sold, terminated, or
exercised, or no longer qualifies for hedge accounting. For forecasted
transactions, any cumulative gain or loss on the hedging instrument
recognised in "Hedging reserve account" is retained until the
forecasted transaction occurs. If the forecasted transaction is no
longer expected to occur, the net cumulative gain or loss recognised in
"Hedging reserve account" is immediately transferred to the
Statement of Profit and Loss.
2.18 Derivative contracts
The Company enters into derivative contracts in the nature of foreign
currency forward contracts with an intention to hedge its existing
assets and liabilities, firm commitments and highly probable
transactions. Derivative contracts which are closely linked to the
existing assets and liabilities are accounted as per the policy stated

the prices of commodities futures till the balance sheet date.
As on balance sheet date, profit/ loss on open position in commodities
futures are accounted as follows
- Credit Balance in the "Mark to Market Margin Account" being
anticipated profit is ignored and no profit for the same is taken in
the profit and loss account.

Squaring up of contract is accounted as follows
- On final delivery settlement the difference between the settlement
price and contract price is added/reduced from/to sale/purchase
- On squaring up of the contract the difference between the squared
up price and contract price is recognized in profit and loss account
When more than one contract in respect of the relevant series of
commodity future contract to which the settled/squared up contract
pertains is outstanding at the time of settlement/squaring up of the
contract, the contract price is determined using weighted average
method for calculating the difference/ profit/loss on

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing the profi t / (loss)
after tax (including the post tax effect of extraordinary items, if
any) by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during
the year. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing the profi
t / (loss) after tax (including the post tax effect of extraordinary
items, if any) as adjusted for dividend, interest and other charges to
expense or income relating to the dilutive potential equity shares, by
the weighted average number of gquity shares considered for deriving
basic earnings per share and the weighted average number of equity
shares which could have been issued on the conversion of all dilutive
potential equity shares. Potential equity shares are deemed to be
dilutive only if their conversion to equity shares would decrease the
net profi t per share from continuing ordinary operations. Potential
dilutive equity shares are deemed to be converted as at the beginning
of the period, unless they have been issued at a later date. The
dilutive potential equity shares are adjusted for the proceeds
receivable had the shares been actually issued at fair value (i.e.
average market value of the outstanding shares). Dilutive potential
equity shares are determined independently for each period presented.
The number of equity shares and potentially dilutive equity shares are
adjusted for share splits / reverse share splits and bonus shares, as
appropriate.
1.15 Taxes on income
Current tax is the amount of tax payable on the taxable income for the
year as determined in accordance with the provisions of the Income Tax
Act, 1961.
Minimum Alternate Tax (MAT) paid in accordance with the tax laws, which
gives future economic benefi ts in the form of adjustment to future
income tax liability, is considered as an asset if there is convincing
evidence that the Company will pay normal income tax. Accordingly, MAT
is recognised as an asset in the Balance Sheet when it is probable that
future economic benefi t associated with it will fl ow to the Company.
Deferred tax is recognised on timing differences, being the differences
between the taxable income and the accounting income that originate in
one period and are capable of reversal in one or more subsequent
periods. Deferred tax is measured using the tax rates and the tax laws
enacted or substantially enacted as at the reporting date. Deferred tax
liabilities are recognised for all timing differences. Deferred tax
assets in respect of unabsorbed depreciation and carry forward of
losses are recognised only if there is virtual certainty that there
will be suffi cient future taxable income available to realise such
assets. Deferred tax assets are recognised for timing differences of
other items only to the extent that reasonable certainty exists that
suffi cient future taxable income will be available against which these
can be realised. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if such
items relate to taxes on income levied by the same governing tax laws
and the Company has a legally enforceable right for such set off.
Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each Balance Sheet date for their
realisability.
1.16 Impairment of assets
The carrying values of assets / cash generating units at each Balance
Sheet date are reviewed for impairment. If any indication of impairment
exists, the recoverable amount of such assets is estimated and
impairment is recognised, if the carrying amount of these assets
exceeds their recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the greater
of the net selling price and their value in use. Value in use is
arrived at by discounting the future cash fl ows to their present value
based on an appropriate discount factor. When there is indication that
an impairment loss recognised for an asset in earlier accounting
periods no longer exists or may have decreased, such reversal of
impairment loss is recognised in the Statement of Profi t and Loss,
except in case of revalued assets.
1.17 Provisions and contingencies
A provision is recognised when the Company has a present obligation as
a result of past events and it is probable that an outfl ow of
resources will be required to settle the obligation in respect of which
a reliable estimate can be made. Provisions (excluding retirement
benefi ts) are not discounted to their present value and are determined
based on the best estimate required to settle the obligation at the
Balance Sheet date. These are reviewed at each Balance Sheet date and
adjusted to refl ect the current best estimates. Contingent liabilities
are disclosed in the Notes.
1.18 Hedge accounting
The Company uses foreign currency forward contracts to hedge its risks
associated with foreign currency fl uctuations relating to highly
probable forecast transactions. The Company designates such forward
contracts in a cash fl ow hedging relationship by applying the hedge
accounting principles set out in "Accounting Standard 30 Financial
Instruments: Recognition and Measurement". These forward contracts are
stated at fair value at each reporting date. Changes in the fair value
of these forward contracts that are designated and effective as hedges
of future cash fl ows are recognised directly in "Hedging reserve
account" under Reserves and surplus, net of applicable deferred income
taxes and the ineffective portion is recognised immediately in the
Statement of Profi t and Loss. Amounts accumulated in the "Hedging
reserve account" are reclassifi ed to the Statement of Profi t and Loss
in the same periods during which the forecasted transaction affects
profi t and loss. Hedge accounting is discontinued when the hedging
instrument expires or is sold, terminated, or exercised, or no longer
qualifi es for hedge accounting. For forecasted transactions, any
cumulative gain or loss on the hedging instrument recognised in
"Hedging reserve account" is retained until the forecasted transaction
occurs. If the forecasted transaction is no longer expected to occur,
the net cumulative gain or loss recognised in "Hedging reserve account"
is immediately transferred to the Statement of Profi t and Loss.
1.19 Derivative contracts
The Company enters into derivative contracts in the nature of foreign
currency forward contracts with an intention to hedge its existing
assets and liabilities, fi rm commitments and highly probable
transactions. Derivative contracts which are closely linked to the

Derivative contracts designated as a hedging instrument for highly
probable forecast transactions are accounted as per the policy stated
for Hedge Accounting.
All other derivative contracts are marked-to-market and losses are

anticipated profi t is ignored and no profi t for the same is taken in
the profi t and loss account.
- Debit balance in the "Mark to Market Margin Account" being
anticipated loss is charged to profi t and loss account.
Settlement and Squaring up of contract is accounted as follows
- On fi nal delivery settlement the difference between the settlement
price and contract price is added/reduced from/to sale/ rurchase.
- On squaring up of the contract the difference between the squared ur
price and contract price is recognized in profi t and loss account.
When more than one contract in respect of the relevant series of
commodity future contract to which the settled/squared up contract
pertains is outstanding at the time of settlement/squaring up of the
contract, the contract price is determined using weighted average
method for calculating the difference/ profi t/loss on
