Note 2. Going Concern

The Company was declared sick by the BIFR on July 20, 2006 and the BIFR, vide its order dated July 16, 2009, sanctioned the revival scheme for the Company which was further modified in June 2010. Relevant adjustments as required by the scheme including recasting of creditors had been carried out in the books of account.

Subsequently, the Appellate Authority for Industrial and Financial Reconstruction (AAIFR) vide its order dated March 22, 2011 allowed the appeal filed by one of the unsecured creditors and remanded the case back to the BIFR for considering revival scheme through Operating Agency (OA). IDBI Bank Ltd (IDBI), appointed as OA by BIFR, reviewed the Draft Rehabilitation Scheme (DRS) prepared by the Company and submitted it to BIFR on February 16, 2012. The Company revised the DRS with cut-off date as March 31, 2013 and the same was approved by BIFR in its meeting held on July 01, 2013 as modified sanctioned scheme MS-13.

The salient features of MS-13 include implementation of project, settlement of unsecured creditors at 30% of principal dues (as approved under earlier scheme) and issue of shares to promoter Company towards advance received against share application money. Further, the Company had applied to Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT) for carry forward of business losses beyond eight years which was approved subject to certain conditions specified in CBDT order.

Due to adverse market condition and change in regulatory norms in USA, the Company has proposed to shelve the plan of setting-up p-MPAA project as stated in MS-13.

However, any scheme of revival, which has already been sanctioned by the BIFR in the past and is under implementation, will continue to be in force. Accordingly, the MS-13 approved by BIFR in its meeting held on July 01, 2013 continues to be in place. In view of the above, books of account have been prepared on going concern basis.

The merger scheme pending approval of BIFR, stands abated. Subsequently, the Board of Directors in its meeting held on March 24, 2017 decided not to proceed with merger scheme.

Note 3. Employee Benefit Obligation

a) Defined contribution plans:

i) Provident fund

ii) State defined contribution plans

Employers'' contribution to employees'' state insurance Employers'' contribution to employees'' pension scheme 1995

The provident fund and the state defined contribution plan are operated by the Regional Provident Fund Commissioner. Under the scheme, the Company is required to contribute a specified percentage of payroll cost to the retirement benefit scheme to fund the benefits. These funds are recognised by the income tax authorities.The Company''s contribution to the provident fund and other contribution plans for all employees is charged to Statement of Profit and Loss.

b) Defined benefit plans:

Gratuity

The gratuity fund is maintained with the Life Insurance Corporation of India under Group Gratuity scheme.

The above sensitivity analysis are based on a change in an assumption while holding all other assumptions constant. In practice, this is unlikely to occur, and changes in some of the assumptions may be correlated. When calculating the sensitivity of the defined benefit obligation to significant actuarial assumptions the same method (present value of the defined benefit obligation calculated with the projected unit credit method at the end of the reporting period) has been applied as when calculating the defined benefit liability recognised in the Balance Sheet.

The methods and types of assumptions used in preparing the sensitivity analysis did not change as compared to the prior year.

Risk exposure

Through its defined benefit plans, the Company is exposed to a number of risks, the most significant of which are detailed below:

i) Interest rate risk

A fall in the discount rate which is linked to the government securities rate will increase the present value of the liability requiring higher provision. A fall in the discount rate generally increases the mark to market value of the assets depending on the duration of asset.

ii) Salary risk

The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated by reference to the future salaries of members. As such, an increase in the salary of the members more than assumed level will increase the plan''s liability.

iii) Investment risk

The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated using a discount rate which is determined by reference to market yields at the end of the reporting period on government bonds. If the return on plan asset is below this rate, it will create a plan deficit. Currently, for the plan in India, it has a relatively balanced mix of investments in government securities, and other debt instruments.

iv) Concentration risk

Plan is having a concentration risk as all the assets are invested with the insurance company and a default will wipe out all the assets. Although probability of this is very less as insurance companies have to follow regulatory guidelines.

c) Other long-term benefits

Long term compensated absences (Unfunded scheme)

Leave encashment is payable to eligible employees who have earned leaves, during the employment and | or on separation as per the policy of the Company. Valuation in respect of leave encashment have been carried out by independent actuary, as at the Balance Sheet date, based on the following assumptions:

Note 4. Capital Management

a) The Company was declared sick by the BIFR through its order dated July 31, 2006. Presently, the Modified Sanctioned Scheme (MS-13) approved by BIFR in its meeting held on July 01, 2013 continues to be in place. The management is taking all steps to maximise shareholder value as per approved MS-13 to revive the Company and make its net worth positive.

b) The Company has not declared any dividend.

b) Fair value hierarchy

This section explains the judgements and estimates made in determining the fair values of the financial instruments that are (a) recognised and measured at fair value and (b) measured at amortised cost and for which fair values are disclosed in the Financial Statements. To provide an indication about the reliability of the inputs used in determining fair value, the Company has classified its financial instruments into the three levels prescribed under the accounting standard. An explanation of each level follows underneath the table.

Level 1: Level 1 hierarchy includes financial instruments measured using quoted prices. This includes listed equity instruments and mutual fund units that have a quoted price. The fair value of all equity instruments which are traded on the Stock Exchanges is valued using the closing price as at the reporting period.

Level 2: The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market (for example over-the-counter derivatives) is determined using valuation techniques which maximise the use of observable market data and rely as little as possible on entity-specific estimates. If all significant inputs required to fair value an instrument are observable, the instrument is included in level 2. The mutual fund units are valued using the closing net assets value.

Level 3: If one or more of the significant inputs is not based on observable market data, the instrument is included in level 3.

c) Valuation technique used to determine fair value

Specific valuation techniques used to value financial instruments include:

i) the use of quoted market prices

ii) the fair value of the remaining financial instruments is determined using discounted cash flow analysis

d) Valuation processes

The Company obtains assistance of independent and competent third party valuers to perform the valuations of financial assets and liabilities wherever required for financial reporting purposes, including level 3 fair values. These experts report to the financial risk management team, Chief Financial Officer (CFO) and the Audit Committee (AC). Discussions of valuation processes and results are held between the Chief Financial Officer and the Audit Committee.

The carrying amounts of trade receivables, bank deposits with more than 12 months maturity, cash and cash equivalents, trade payables, employee benefit payables, payable towards expenses and retention payables are considered to be the same as their fair values due to the current and short-term nature of such business.

The fair values of non-current borrowings are based on discounted cash flows using a current borrowing rate. They are classified as level 3 fair values in the fair value hierarchy due to the use of unobservable inputs, including own credit risk.

Note:

i) For investment held by the Company in equity shares of Bharuch Enviro Infrastructure Ltd, its cost of acquisition has been considered as fair value, considering the statutory requirement of regulatory authorities relating to purchase and restriction on transfer. All other investments in unquoted equity shares held by the Company relate to non-operating | loss making entities which have been impaired in the past, and there are no factors which indicate upward valuation.

The business activities of the Company are exposed to a variety of financial risks, namely liquidity risk, market risk and credit risk. Responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the risk management framework lies with the senior management of the Company. The Company has constituted a Risk Management Committee, which is responsible for developing and monitoring the risk management policies of the Company. The key risks and mitigating actions are also placed before the Audit Committee of the Company. The risk management policies are established to identify and analyse the risks faced by the Company, to set appropriate risk limits and controls and to monitor risks and adherence to limits. risk management policies and systems are reviewed regularly to reflect changes in market conditions and the activities of the Company.

The Risk Management Committee of the Company is supported by the Finance team and experts who provides assurance that the financial risk activities of the Company are governed by appropriate policies and procedures and that financial risks are identified, measured and managed in accordance with the policies and risk objectives of the Company. The activities are designed to protect the financial results and position from financial risks, maintain market risks within acceptable parameters, while optimising returns and protect the financial investments, while maximising returns.

A) Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty fails to meet its contractual obligations. Credit risk arises from cash and cash equivalents, financial assets measured at amortised cost or fair value through profit and loss and deposits with banks and financial institutions, as well as credit exposures to trade | non-trade customers including outstanding receivables.

i) Credit risk management

Credit risk is managed through the policy surrounding Credit Risk Management.

ii) Provision for expected credit losses

The Company provides for expected credit loss based on the following:

Trade receivables

Trade receivables consist of few customers, majorly of amount receivable from Atul Ltd, the Holding Company, for which ongoing credit evaluation is performed on the financial condition of the account receivables.

B) Liquidity risk

Ultimate responsibility for liquidity risk management rests with the Board of Directors, who has approved an appropriate liquidity risk management framework for short, medium and long term funding and liquidity management requirements of the company. The Management monitors rolling forecasts of the liquidity position of the Company and cash and cash equivalents on the basis of expected cash flows and manages liquidity risk by continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows, and by matching the maturity profiles of financial assets and liabilities.

C) Market risk

i) Cash flow and fair value interest rate risk

Entire borrowings of the Company are from Atul Ltd (Holding Company) and are fixed rate borrowings that is 0% are carried at amortised cost. They are therefore 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 a change in market interest rates.

ii) Price risk

a) Exposure

The Company is mainly exposed to the price risk due to its investments in mutual funds. The price risk arises due to uncertainties about the future market values of these investments. In order to manage its price risk arising from investments in equity instruments, the Company maintains its portfolio in accordance with the framework set by the risk management policies.

The Company operates in a single business segment that is manufacturing of bulk chemicals. Further, its operations are confined within India and major customer of the Company is Atul Ltd. Accordingly, there are no separate reportable segments as per Ind AS-108 on ''Operating Segments'' and no further disclosures are required.

Note 5. Loans

During the year, the Company has not entered into any transaction in nature of loans and advances which falls within the purview of Regulation 34(3) read with para A of Schedule V to the SEBI (listing obligations and disclosure requirements) Regulations, 2015 read with Section 186(4) of the Companies Act, 2013.

Note 6. Regrouping Reclassification

Figures for previous year have been regrouped reclassified rearranged wherever necessary to make them comparable to those for the current year.

Note 7. Rounding off

All amounts are rounded off to the nearest thousand unless otherwise stated.

Note 8. Authorisation for issue of the Financial Statements

The Company has constituted a Risk Management Committee, which is responsible for developing and monitoring the Risk Management policies of the Company. The key risks and mitigating actions are also placed before the Audit Committee of the Company. The Risk Management policies are established to identify and analyse the risks faced by the Company, to set appropriate risk limits and controls and to monitor risks and adherence to limits. Risk Management policies and systems are reviewed regularly to reflect changes in market conditions and the activities of the Company.

The Risk Management Committee of the Company is supported by the Finance team and experts who provide assurance that the financial risk activities of the Company are governed by appropriate policies and procedures and that financial risks are identified, measured and managed in accordance with the policies and risk objectives of the Company. The activities are designed to protect the financial results and position from financial risks, maintain market risks within acceptable parameters, while optimising returns and protecting the financial investments, while maximising returns.

This note explains the sources of risk which the Company is exposed to and how the Company manages the risk in the Financial Statements.

A) Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty fails to meet its contractual obligations. Credit risk arises from cash and cash equivalents, investments carried at amortised cost or fair value through profit and loss and deposits with banks and financial institutions, as well as credit exposures to trade | non-trade customers including outstanding receivables.

i) Credit Risk Management

Credit risk is managed through the policy surrounding Credit Risk Management.

Trade receivables

Trade receivables consist of few customers, majorly of amount receivable from Atul Ltd, the Holding Company, for which ongoing credit evaluation is performed on the finanical condition of the account receivables.

B) Liquidity risk

Ultimate responsibility for liquidity risk management rests with the Board of Directors, which has established an appropriate liquidity risk management framework for short, medium and long term funding and liquidity management requirements of the Company. The Management monitors rolling forecasts of the liquidity position of the Company and cash and cash equivalents on the basis of expected cash flows and manages liquidity risk by continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows, and by matching the maturity profiles of financial assets and liabilities.

The following table shows the maturity analysis of financial liabilities of the Company based on contractually agreed undiscounted cash flows including contractual interest payment, as at the Balance Sheet date:

a) Ind AS optional exemptions

Set out below are the applicable Ind AS 101 optional exemptions and mandatory exceptions applied in the transition from previous IGAAP to Ind AS.

i) Deemed cost

Ind AS 101 permits a first-time adopter to elect to continue with the carrying value for all of its property, plant and equipment as recognized in the Financial Statements as at the date of transition to Ind AS, measured as per the IGAAP and use that as its deemed cost as at the date of transition after making necessary adjustments for de-commissioning liabilities. This exemption can also be used for intangible assets covered by Ind AS 38 Intangible assets and investment property covered by Ind AS 40 Investment properties. Accordingly, the Company has elected to measure all of its property, plant and equipment, property at their IGAAP carrying value.

ii) Business combinations

Ind AS 101 provides the option to apply Ind AS 103 "Business Combinations" prospectively from the transition date or from a specific date prior to the transition date.

iii) Designation of previously recognized financial instruments

The Company made estimates for following items in accordance with Ind AS at the date of transition as these were not required under IGAAP:

9) Investment in equity instruments carried at FATPL

10) Impairment of financial assets based on expected credit loss model.

B. Reconciliations between IGAAP and Ind AS

Ind AS 101 requires an entity to reconcile equity, total comprehensive income and cash flows for prior periods. The following tables represent the reconciliations from IGAAP to Ind AS.

i) Reconciliation of equity as at March 31, 2016 and April 01, 2015

* The IGAAP figures have been reclassified to confirm to Ind AS presentation requirements for the purposes of this note.

C Notes to the reconciliations

11. Under previous GAAP, preference shares were shown as part of equity and carried at cost. Redeemable preference shares contain a contractual obligation to deliver cash to the holders. Under Ind AS the same is classified as liability and current portion of preference shares amounting to Rs. 8,617 thousand has been classified as part of other financial liability.

12. As per Modified Sanctioned Scheme (MS-10 and MS-13) approved by the Board for Industrial and Financial Reconstruction (BIFR), the Company had issued 0% redeemable Preference shares of Rs. 1,00,000 thousand to Atul Ltd (Promoter) and received interest free secured loan of Rs. 1,12,900 thousand and interest free unsecured loan of Rs. 53,900 thousand from Atul Ltd. Under the Previous GAAP, borrowings are measured at the transaction price. Under IND AS, the initial recognition of all financial liabilities is at fair value and subsequently at amortized cost. As the Company has obtained interest free borrowings from the Holding company (Atul Limited) which had resulted in the fair value at initial recognition of these interest free borrowings to be lower than transaction price. This Day 1 gain has been recognized by the company as a deemed capital contribution from the holding company (Atul Ltd) under IND AS since it is a transaction with the parent in its capacity as such. Subsequently, the interest free borrowings has been recognized at amortized cost resulting in recognition of interest expense based on market rate of interest determined at inception of the transaction. The net effect of this is an increase in other equity as at March 31, 2016 of Rs. 112,428 thousand, increase as at April 01, 2015 of Rs. 135,975 thousand, and an increase in loss (finance cost) for the year ended March 31, 2016 of Rs. 23,548 thousand."

13. Excise duty

Under IGAAP, revenue from sale of products was presented exclusive of excise duty. Under Ind AS, revenue from sale of goods is presented inclusive of excise duty. The excise duty paid is presented on the face of the statement of profit and loss as part of expenses. This change has resulted in an increase in total revenue and total expenses for the year ended March 31, 2016 by Rs. 26,500 thousand. There is no impact on the total equity and profit.

14. Remeasurements of post-employment benefit obligations

Under Ind AS, remeasurements that is actuarial gains and losses and the return on plan assets, excluding amounts included in the net interest expense on the net defined benefit liability are recognized in other comprehensive income instead of profit or loss. Under the IGAAP, these remeasurements were forming part of the profit or loss for the year. As a result of this change, the profit for the year ended March 31, 2016 decreased by Rs. 161 thousand. There is no impact on the total equity as at March 31, 2016.

15. Cash discount

Under IGAAP, revenue from sale of products was measured at transaction price. Under Ind AS, revenue from sale of goods is measured at fair value of consideration received or receivable. Hence, cash discount is reduced from revenue to present the same at its fair value. This change has resulted in a decrease in total revenue and total expenses for the year ended March 31, 2016 by Rs. 201 thousand. There is no impact on the total equity and profit.

Note 16: Fair value measurements

(b) Fair value hierarchy

This section explains the judgments and estimates made in determining the fair values of the financial instruments that are (a) recognized and measured at fair value and (b) measured at amortized cost and for which fair values are disclosed in the financial statements. To provide an indication about the reliability of the inputs used in determining fair value, the Company has classified its financial instruments into the three levels prescribed under the accounting standard. An explanation of each level follows underneath the table.

There were no transfers between any levels during the year.

Level 1: Level 1 hierarchy includes financial instruments measured using quoted prices. This includes Mutual Funds that have a quoted price(NAV) and are valued using the closing NAV

Level 2: The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market (for example over-the-counter derivatives) is determined using valuation techniques which maximize the use of observable market data and rely as little as possible on entity-specific estimates. If all significant inputs required to fair value an instrument are observable, the instrument is included in level 2.

Level 3: If one or more of the significant inputs is not based on observable market data, the instrument is included in level 3.

(c) Valuation technique used to determine fair value

Specific valuation techniques used to value financial instruments include:

i) the use of quoted market prices.

ii) the fair value of the remaining financial instruments is determined using discounted cash flow analysis.

(d) Valuation Processes

The company obtains assistance of independent and competent third party valuers to perform the valuations of financial assets and liabilities wherever required for financial reporting purposes, including level 3 fair values. This experts report to the financial risk management team, chief financial officer (CFO) and the audit committee (AC). Discussions of valuation processes and results are held between the CFO and AC .

(e) Fair value of financial assets and liabilities measured at amortized cost.

The carrying amounts of trade receivables, bank deposits with more than 12 months maturity, cash and cash equivalents, Trade payables, employee benefit payable, provision for expenses and retention payable are considered to have their fair values approximately equal to their carrying values.

The fair values of non-current borrowings are based on discounted cash flows using a current borrowing rate. They are classified as level 3 fair values in the fair value hierarchy due to the use of unobservable inputs, including own and counter party credit risk.

(f) Valuation inputs and relationships to fair value

Note17: All investment in Unquoted Equity shares held by the company have been fully impaired, except for investment in equity shares of Bharuch Enviro Infrastructure Ltd for which, its cost of acquisition has been considered as fair value, Considering the statutory requirement of regulatory authorities relating to purchase and restriction on transfer.

*The change in the unobservable inputs for unquoted equity instruments does not have a significant impact in its value.
