1. MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The material accounting policies applied by the Company in the preparation of its financial statements are
listed below. Such accounting policies have been applied consistently to all the periods presented in these
financial statements and in preparing the Ind AS Balance Sheet, Statement of Profit and Loss Account,
Statement of Cash Flow, Statement of changes in equity and notes forming part of financials.

a. BASIS OF PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

These Standalone financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Indian Accounting
Standards (hereinafter referred to as the ''Ind AS'') 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 as amended from time to time.

The standalone financial statements have been prepared on accrual and going concern basis. The accounting
policies are applied consistently to all the periods presented in the standalone financial statements.

All assets and liabilities have been classified as current or non-current as per the Company''s normal operating
cycle, the Company has considered an operating cycle of 12 months

Financial statements are presented in Indian Rupee ('') which is the functional currency, and all values are
rounded to the nearest Lakhs as per the requirement of Schedule III to the Companies Act, 2013, except
where otherwise indicated. The Company has prepared the financial statements on the basis that it will
continue to operate as a going concern.

Foreign currency transactions are recorded at exchange rates prevailing on the date of the transaction.
Foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities are retranslated at the exchange rate
prevailing on the balance sheet dates and exchange gains and losses arising on settlement and restatement
are recognised in the statement of profit and loss.

b. USE OF ESTIMATES

The preparation of these financial statements in conformity with the recognition and measurement principles
of Ind AS requires the management of the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the
reported balances of assets and liabilities, disclosures relating to contingent liabilities as at the date of the
financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expense for the periods presented. Estimates
and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are
recognised in the period in which the estimates are revised and future periods are affected. Estimates and
judgements are continually evaluated. They are based on historical experience and other factors, including
expectations of future events that may have a financial impact on the company and that are believed to be

reasonable under the circumstances. Information about critical judgments in applying accounting policies,
as well as estimates and assumptions that have the most significant effect to the carrying amounts of assets
and liabilities within the next financial year, are as follows:

- Determination of the estimated useful lives of tangible assets and the assessment as to which component of
the cost may be capitalized - refer point 1 (d) of material accounting policies

- Determination of the estimated useful lives of Intangible assets and the assessment as to which component
of the cost may be capitalized - refer point 1 (e) of material accounting policies

- Recognition of deferred tax assets - refer note no. 6

- Recognition and measurement of defined benefit obligations - refer note no. 34

- Provisions and Contingent Liabilities - refer note no. 35

c. CURRENT AND NON - CURRENT CLASSIFICATION

The Company presents assets and liabilities in the balance sheet based on current/ non-current classification.
An asset is treated as current when it is:

â¢ Expected to be realised or intended to be sold or consumed in normal operating cycle

â¢ Held primarily for the purpose of trading

â¢ Expected to be realised within twelve months after the reporting period, or

â¢ Cash or cash equivalent unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least
twelve months after the reporting period

All other assets are classified as non-current.

A liability is current when:

â¢ It is expected to be settled in normal operating cycle

â¢ It is held primarily for the purpose of trading

â¢ It is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period, or

â¢ There is no unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the
reporting period.

The Company classifies all other liabilities as non-current.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as non-current assets and liabilities.

The operating cycle is the time between the acquisition of assets for processing and their realisation in cash
and cash equivalents. The Company has identified twelve months as its operating cycle.

d. PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT

Property, Plant and Equipment are stated at acquisition cost, net of accumulated depreciation and
accumulated impairment losses, if any. Cost includes acquisition cost and any capital expenditure directly
attributable to the cost of acquisition. All other repair and maintenance costs that do not enhance the life or
benefit of the property, plant and equipment are recognised in profit or loss as incurred.

Gains or losses arising on retirement or disposal of property, plant and equipment are recognised in the
Statement of Profit and Loss.

DEPRECIATION METHODS, ESTIMATED USEFUL LIFE AND RESIDUAL VALUE:

The residual values are not more than 5% of the original cost of the asset. The residual values, useful lives
and method of depreciation of property, plant and equipment is reviewed at each financial year end and
adjusted prospectively, if appropriate.

An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits
are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset. Any gain or loss arising on disposal or retirement
of an item of property, plant and equipment is determined as the difference between sales proceeds and
the carrying amount of the asset and is recognised in profit or loss. Fully depreciated assets still in use are
retained in financial statements at residual value.

e. INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Intangible Assets are recognized only when future economic benefits arising out of the assets flow to the
enterprise and are amortised over their useful life of 3 years or useful life of the intangible asset as decided
by the management. Following initial recognition, intangible assets are carried at cost less any accumulated
amortisation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. Internally generated intangibles, excluding
capitalised development costs, are not capitalised and the related expenditure is reflected in Statement of
Profit and Loss in the period in which the expenditure is incurred. Gains or losses arising from derecognition
of an intangible asset are measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying
amount of the asset and are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss when the asset is derecognised.
Kindly refer to Note No. 4 of the Standalone Financials for derecognition/ sale of Intangible Assets during
the year

f. INVESTMENT IN SUBSIDIARIES AND ASSOCIATES

Investments in subsidiaries and associates 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. Any disposal of investments in subsidiaries, the difference
between net disposal proceeds and the carrying amounts are recognized in the Statement of Profit and
Loss.

g. INVENTORIES

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost includes cost of purchase and other
cost incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. Cost is determined on First
in First out (FIFO) basis. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business,
less estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.

h. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

The Company considers all highly liquid investments, which are readily convertible into known amounts
of cash that are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value, to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash
equivalents consist of balances with banks, Cash in hand and short-term deposits with an original maturity
of three months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash, which are unrestricted for
withdrawal and usage.

Other bank balances represent balances held with banks that are not readily available for use by the Company
in its day-to-day operations and do not meet the definition of cash and cash equivalents. Such balances
primarily include:

â¢ Margin money deposits against borrowings, guarantees, or other commitments, and

â¢ Unpaid dividend accounts

These balances are carried at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method, where applicable.

i. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Financial assets and liabilities are recognised when the Company becomes a party to the contractual
provisions of the instrument. Financial assets and liabilities are initially measured at fair value. Transaction
costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities (other
than financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss) are added to or deducted
from the fair value measured on initial recognition of financial asset or financial liability.

FINANCIAL ASSETS AT AMORTISED COST

Financial assets are subsequently measured at amortised cost if these financial assets are held within a
business whose objective is to hold these assets in order to collect contractual cash flows and the contractual
terms of the financial assets give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal
and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

FINANCIAL ASSETS AT FAIR VALUE THROUGH OTHER COMPREHENSIVE INCOME (FVTOCI)

Financial assets are measured at fair value through other comprehensive income if these financial assets
are held within a business whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows that give
rise on specified dates to solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding and
by selling financial assets.

The Company has made an irrevocable election to present subsequent changes in the fair value of equity
investments not held for trading in Other Comprehensive Income

FINANCIAL ASSETS AT FAIR VALUE THROUGH PROFIT OR LOSS (FVTPL)

Financial assets are measured at fair value through profit or loss unless it is measured at amortised cost
or at fair value through other comprehensive income on initial recognition. The transaction costs directly
attributable to the acquisition of financial assets and liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are
immediately recognised in profit or loss.

FINANCIAL LIABILITIES

All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value and in the case of loans and borrowings and
payables, net of directly attributable transaction costs.

The Company''s financial liabilities include trade and other payables, loans and borrowings including bank
overdrafts and other current liabilities.

profit or loss when the liabilities are derecognised as well as through the EIR amortisation process. The EIR
amortisation is included as finance costs in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

OFF SETTING 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, to realise the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.

j. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT

i. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly
transaction between market participants at the measurement date under current market conditions
regardless of whether that price is directly observable or estimated using another valuation technique.
The fair value measurement is based on the presumption that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer
the liability takes place either:

â¢ In the principal market for the asset or liability or

â¢ In the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the asset or liability.

ii. The principal or the most advantageous market must be accessible by the Company. The fair value of an
asset or a liability is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing
the asset or liability, assuming that marketparticipants act in their economic best interest.

iii. A fair value measurement of a non-financial asset takes into account a market participant''s ability to
generate economic benefits by using the asset in its highest and best use or by selling it to another
market participant that would use the asset in its highest and best use.

iv. All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the financial statements are
categorised 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:

â¢ Level 1 - This hierarchy uses quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets
or liabilities.

â¢ Level 2 - The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market is determined
using valuation techniques which maximize the use of observable market data and rely as little as
possible on company specific estimates.

â¢ Level 3 - If the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is not based on
observable market data.

The fair value measurement is based on the presumption that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability takes place either:

â¢ In the principal market for the asset or liability or

â¢ In the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the asset or liability.

k) PROVISIONS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

Provisions are recognised when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. Provisions are measured at the best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the present obligation at the Balance Sheet date. If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted to reflect its present value using a current pre-tax rate that reflects the current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the obligation. When discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised as a finance cost. Contingent liabilities are disclosed when there is a possible obligation arising from past events, the existence of which will be confirmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of the Company or a present obligation that arises from past events where it is either not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation or a reliable estimate of the amount cannot be made. Contingent Assets are neither recoginsed nor disclosed in the standalone financial statements.

l) REVENUE RECOGNITION

Revenue from sale of goods is recognised 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 and the amount of revenue can be measured reliably. The Company retains no effective control of the goods transferred to a degree usually associated with ownership and no significant uncertainty exists regarding the amount of the consideration that will be derived from the sale of goods. Revenue is measured at fair value of the consideration received or receivable, after deduction of any trade discounts, volume rebates and any taxes or duties collected on behalf of the government which are levied on sales such as GST etc. No element of financing is deemed present as the Sales made to customers are made largely with same credit terms to all the customers and depending on the specific terms agreed between customers.

Export Sales are booked at the rate on the date of transaction and the resultant Gain/ Loss on realisation or on translation is accounted as "Foreign Exchange Rate Fluctuation" and is dealt with in the statement of Profit and Loss Account.

Export Entitlements are recognised when the right to receive the entitlements is established and there is no conditions involved where the reversal of entitlements is required. When the export entitlements is received the same is setoff with the Export Entitlements receivable.

Interest income is recognized using the effective interest rate (EIR) method when it is probable that economic benefits will flow to the Company and the amount of income can be measured reliably.

Other Income is recognised based on agreements/ arrangements with the customers, if any at the reporting date and the amount of income can be measured reliably.

Slump Sale is defined as the transfer of one or more undertakings as a result of the sale for a lump sum consideration without values being assigned to the individual assets and liabilities. The Company during the year has sold "C-kartOnline" Business Division, an online digital B2B E Commerce platform on slump sale basis and profit earned on this slump sale transaction i.e. Consideration received less amortised cost of assets and liabilities, if any, are shown under the head Other Income in the Statement of Profit and loss account.

m) EXPENDITURE

Expenses are accounted and recognised in Financials on accrual basis.

n) EMPLOYEE BENEFITS

i. SHORT TERM EMPLOYEE BENEFITS

Short-term employee benefits are employee benefits (other than termination benefits) that are expected to be settled wholly before twelve months such as salaries, bonuses, performance incentives, etc., after the end of the annual reporting period in which the employees render the related service. The Company recognises above short term employee benefits directly to Statement of Profit and Loss as an expense in the year in which services are rendered.

ii. DEFINED CONTRIBUTION PLANS

Contributions to defined contribution schemes such as employees'' state insurance, labour welfare fund, superannuation scheme, employee pension scheme etc. are charged as an expense based on the amount of contribution required to be made as and when services are rendered by the employees. Company''s provident fund contribution, in respect of certain employees, is made to a government administered fund and charged as an expense to the Statement of Profit and Loss. The above benefits are classified as Defined Contribution Schemes as the Company has no further defined obligations beyond the monthly contributions.

iii. DEFINED BENEFIT PLANS

The Company also provides for retirement/post-retirement benefits in the form of gratuity, pensions (in respect of certain employees). The Company''s liability is determined on the basis of an actuarial valuation using the projected unit credit method as at the balance sheet date. For defined benefit plans, the amount recognised as ''Employee benefit expenses'' in the Statement of Profit and Loss is the cost of accruing employee benefits promised to employees over the year and the costs of individual events such as past/future service benefit changes and settlements (such events are recognised immediately in the Statement of Profit and Loss). Any differences between the interest income/ loss on plan assets and the return actually achieved, and any changes in the liabilities over the year due to changes in actuarial assumptions or experience adjustments within the plans, are recognised immediately in ''Other comprehensive income'' and subsequently not reclassified to the Statement of Profit and Loss.

iv. For the purpose of presentation of defined benefit plans, the allocation between the short term and long-term provisions have been made as determined by an actuary. Obligations under other long-term benefits are classified as short term provision, if the Company does not have an unconditional right to defer the settlement of the obligation beyond 12 months from the reporting date.

o) IMPAIRMENT OF NON FINANCIAL ASSETS

Assessment for impairment is done at each Balance Sheet date as to whether there is any indication that a non-financial asset may be impaired. If any indication of impairment exists, an estimate of the recoverable amount of the individual asset/cash generating unit is made. Asset/ cash generating unit whose carrying value exceeds their recoverable amount are written down to the recoverable amount by recognising the impairment loss as an expense in the Statement of Profit and Loss. The impairment loss is allocated to reduce the carrying amount of assets of the unit, pro rata based on the carrying amount of each asset in the unit. Recoverable amount is higher of an asset''s or cash generating unit''s fair value less cost of disposal and its value in use. Value in use is the present value of estimated future cash flows expected to arise from the continuing use of an asset or cash generating unit and from its disposal at the end of its useful life. Assessment is also done at each Balance Sheet date as to whether there is any indication that an impairment loss recognised for an asset in prior accounting periods may no longer exist or may have decreased, basis the assessment a reversal of an impairment loss for an asset is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss account.

p) TAXES ON INCOME

Income tax expense comprises current and deferred tax and is recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss except to the extent that it relates to a business combination or to an item which is recognized directly in equity or in other comprehensive income.

CURRENT TAX

Current tax is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the year using applicable tax rates at the Balance Sheet date, and any adjustment to taxes in respect of previous years. It is measured using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.

DEFERRED TAX

Deferred tax is recognised in respect of temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the corresponding amounts used

for taxation purposes. A deferred tax liability is recognised based on the expected manner of realisation or settlement of the carrying amount of assets and liabilities, using tax rates enacted, or substantively enacted, by the end of the reporting period.

Deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the asset can be utilised. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realised.

Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities; and the deferred tax assets and the deferred tax liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority.

q) LEASES

Ind AS 116 requires lessees to determine the lease term as the non-cancellable period of a lease adjusted with any option to extend or terminate the lease, if the use of such option is reasonably certain. The Company makes an assessment on the expected lease term on a lease-by-lease basis and thereby assesses whether it is reasonably certain that any options to extend or terminate the contract will be exercised. In evaluating the lease term, the company considers factors such as any significant leasehold improvements undertaken over the lease term, costs relating to the termination of the lease and the importance of the underlying asset to company''s operations taking into account the location of the underlying asset and the availability of suitable alternatives. The lease term in future periods is reassessed to ensure that the lease term reflects the current economic circumstances.

The Company''s significant leasing arrangements are in respect of premises used for business, are accounted as a short term lease. The aggregate lease rentals payable are charged as rent in the statement of profit and loss and are recognised as an expense on a straight line basis over the lease term (Refer note 29 of the Financials). These lease arrangements are cancellable in nature and can be terminated by giving notice for a period, which vary from one months to three months.

r) FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSACTION

The financial statements are presented in INR, the functional currency of the Company. Items included in the financial statements of the Company are recorded using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the Company operates (the ''functional currency''). Foreign currency transactions are recorded at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of the transactions. At the year end, all the monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency are restated at the closing exchange rates. Exchange differences resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation of such monetary assets and liabilities at the year end are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

s) EARNINGS PER SHARE

Diluted earnings per share are computed by dividing the profit after tax as adjusted for dividend, interest and other charges to expense or income (net of any attributable taxes) relating to the dilutive potential equity shares, by the weighted average number of equity shares considered for deriving basic earnings per share and the weighted average number of equity shares which could have been issued on conversion of all dilutive potential equity shares.

1) SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The significant accounting policies applied by the Company in the preparation of its financial statements are listed below. Such accounting policies have been applied consistently to all the periods presented in these financial statements and in preparing the Ind AS Balance Sheet, Statement of Profit and Loss Account, Statement of Cash Flow, Statement of changes in equity and notes forming part of financials.

a) BASIS OF PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

These financial statements are prepared in accordance with Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS) under the historical cost convention on the accrual and going concern basis except for certain financial instruments which are measured at fair values as per the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013 (''the Act'') (to the extent notified) and guidelines issued by the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI). The Ind AS are prescribed under Section 133 of the Act read with Rule 3 of the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 and the relevant amendment rules issued thereafter.

Accounting policies have been consistently applied 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.

b) USE OF ESTIMATES

The preparation of these financial statements in conformity with the recognition and measurement principles of Ind AS requires the management of the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported balances of assets and liabilities, disclosures relating to contingent liabilities as at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expense for the periods presented. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimates are revised and future periods are affected. Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated. They are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that may have a financial impact on the company and that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.Information about critical judgments in applying accounting policies, as well as estimates and assumptions that have the most significant effect to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year, are as follows:

- Determination of the estimated useful lives of tangible assets and the assessment as to which component of the cost may be capitalized - refer point 1 (d) of significant accounting policies

- Determination of the estimated useful lives of Intangible assets and the assessment as to which component of the cost may be capitalized - refer point 1 (e) of significant accounting policies

- Recognition and measurement of defined benefit obligations - refer note no. 34

- Recognition of deferred tax assets - refer note no. 5

- Provisions and Contingent Liabilities - refer note no. 35

- Revenue recognition for Price Support - refer point 1 (k) of significant accounting policies

c) CURRENT AND NON - CURRENT CLASSIFICATION

The Company presents assets and liabilities in the balance sheet based on current/ noncurrent classification. An asset is treated as current when it is:

â¢ Expected to be realised or intended to be sold or consumed in normal operating cycle

â¢ Held primarily for the purpose of trading

â¢ Expected to be realised within twelve months after the reporting period, or

â¢ Cash or cash equivalent unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period

All other assets are classified as non-current. A liability is current when:

â¢ It is expected to be settled in normal operating cycle

â¢ It is held primarily for the purpose of trading

â¢ It is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period, or

â¢ There is no unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period.

The Company classifies all other liabilities as non-current.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as non-current assets and liabilities.

The operating cycle is the time between the acquisition of assets for processing and their realisation in cash and cash equivalents.

The Company has identified twelve months as its operating cycle.

d) PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT

Property, Plant and Equipment are stated at acquisition cost, net of accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. Cost includes acquisition cost and any capital expenditure directly attributable to the cost of acquisition. All other repair and maintenance costs that do not enhance the life or benefit of the property, plant and equipment are recognised in profit or loss as incurred.

Gains or losses arising on retirement or disposal of property, plant and equipment are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

Property, plant and equipment which are not ready for intended use as on the date of Balance Sheet are disclosed as "Capital work-in-progress".

DEPRECIATION METHODS, ESTIMATED USEFUL LIFE AND RESIDUAL VALUE:

Asset category	Estimated useful life
Buildings	60 years
Office equipment	5 years
Vehicle	8 years
Furniture & Fixture	10 years
Electrical Installation and Equipments	10 years
Computers and Other end devices	3 years

The residual values are not more than 5% of the original cost of the asset. The residual values, useful lives and method of depreciation of property, plant and equipment is reviewed at each financial year end and adjusted prospectively, if appropriate.

An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset. Any gain or loss arising on disposal or retirement of an item of property, plant and equipment is determined as the difference between sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and is recognised in profit or loss. Fully depreciated assets still in use are retained in financial statements.

e) INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Intangible Assets are recognized only when future economic benefits arising out of the assets flow to the enterprise and are amortised over their useful life 6 years as decided by the management. Intangible assets acquired separately are measured on initial recognition at cost. Following initial recognition, intangible assets are carried at cost less any accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. Internally generated intangibles, excluding capitalised development costs, are not capitalised and the related expenditure is reflected in Statement of Profit and Loss in the period in which the expenditure is incurred. Gains or losses arising from derecognition of an intangible asset are measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss when the asset is derecognised.

Asset category	Estimated useful life
Software	6 years

f) INVESTMENT IN SUBSIDIARIES

g) INVENTORIES

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost includes cost of purchase and other cost incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. Cost is determined on First in First out (FIFO) basis. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.

h) CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

Cash and cash equivalent for the purpose of presentation in cash flow statement and in the balance sheet comprise cash at banks and on hand and short-term deposits with an original maturity of three months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash, which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.

i) FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Financial assets and liabilities are recognised when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Financial assets and liabilities are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities (other than financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss) are added to or deducted from the fair value measured on initial recognition of financial asset or financial liability.

FINANCIAL ASSETS AT FAIR VALUE THROUGH OTHER COMPREHENSIVE INCOME (FVTOCI)

Financial assets are measured at fair value through other comprehensive income if these financial assets are held within a business whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows that give rise on specified dates to solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding and by selling financial assets.

The Company has made an irrevocable election to present subsequent changes in the fair value of equity investments not held for trading in Other Comprehensive Income

FINANCIAL ASSETS AT FAIR VALUE THROUGH PROFIT OR LOSS (FVTPL)

Financial assets are measured at fair value through profit or loss unless it is measured at amortised cost or at fair value through other comprehensive income on initial recognition. The transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets and liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are immediately recognised in profit or loss.

FINANCIAL LIABILITIES

All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value and in the case of loans and borrowings and payables, net of directly attributable transaction costs.

The Company''s financial liabilities include trade and other payables, loans and borrowings including bank overdrafts and other current liabilities.

OFF SETTING 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, to realise the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.

j) FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT

i. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date under current market conditions regardless of whether that price is directly observable or estimated using another valuation technique. The fair value measurement is based on the presumption that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability takes place either:

â¢ In the principal market for the asset or liability or

â¢ In the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the asset or liability.

ii. The principal or the most advantageous market must be accessible by the Company. The fair value of an asset or a liability is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, assuming that marketparticipants act in their economic best interest.

iii. A fair value measurement of a non-financial asset takes into account a market participant''s ability to generate economic benefits by using the asset in its highest and best use or by selling it to another market participant that would use the asset in its highest and best use.

iv. All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the financial statements are categorised 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:

â¢ Level 1 - This hierarchy uses quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

â¢ Level 2 - The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market is determined using valuation techniques which maximize the use of observable market data and rely as little as possible on company specific estimates.

â¢ Level 3 - If the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is not based on observable market data.

k) PROVISIONS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

Post - Sales Support

The company is mainly in to B-2-B distribution of branded products and works on pure Agent and Principal relationship, hence no provision are required since the obligation for post sales service is not on the company and the same is provided by the brand itself.

Contingent liabilities are disclosed when there is a possible obligation arising from past events, the existence of which will be confirmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of the Company or a present obligation that arises from past events where it is either not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation or a reliable estimate of the amount cannot be made.

l) REVENUE RECOGNITION

Revenue from sale of goods is recognised 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 and the amount of revenue can be measured reliably. The Company retains no effective control of the goods transferred to a degree usually associated with ownership and no significant uncertainty exists regarding the amount of the consideration that will be derived from the sale of goods. Revenue is measured at fair value of the consideration received or receivable, after deduction of any trade discounts, volume rebates and any taxes or duties collected on behalf of the government which are levied on sales such as GST etc. Export Sales are booked at the rate on the date of transaction and the resultant Gain/ Loss on realisation or on translation is accounted as "Foreign Exchange Rate Fluctuation" and is dealt with in the statement of Profit and Loss Account.

Income from services rendered is recognised based on agreements/ arrangements with the customers at the reporting date and the amount of revenue can be measured reliably.

Interest income is recognized using the effective interest rate (EIR) method when it is probable that economic benefits will flow to the Company and the amount of income can be measured reliably.

m) EXPENDITURE

Expenses are accounted on accrual basis.

n) EMPLOYEE BENEFITSi) SHORT TERM EMPLOYEE BENEFITS

ii) DEFINED CONTRIBUTION PLANS

iii) DEFINED BENEFIT PLANS

The Company also provides for retirement/post-retirement benefits in the form of gratuity, pensions (in respect of certain employees) For defined benefit plans, the amount recognised as ''Employee benefit expenses'' in the Statement of Profit and Loss is the cost of accruing employee benefits promised to employees over the year and the costs of individual events such as past/future service benefit changes and settlements (such events are recognised immediately in the Statement of Profit and Loss). Any differences between the interest income/ loss on plan assets and the return actually achieved, and any changes in the liabilities over the year due to changes in actuarial assumptions or experience adjustments within the plans, are recognised immediately in ''Other comprehensive income'' and subsequently not reclassified to the Statement of Profit and Loss.

o) IMPAIRMENT OF NON FINANCIAL ASSETS

Assessment for impairment is done at each Balance Sheet date as to whether there is any indication that a non-financial asset may be impaired. If any indication of impairment exists, an estimate of the recoverable amount of the individual asset/cash generating unit is made. Asset/cash generating unit whose carrying value exceeds their recoverable amount are written down to the recoverable amount by recognising the impairment loss as an expense in the Statement of Profit and Loss. The impairment loss is allocated to reduce the carrying amount of assets of the unit, pro rata based on the carrying amount of each asset in the unit. Recoverable amount is higher of an asset''s or cash generating unit''s fair value less cost of disposal and its value in use. Value in use is the present value of estimated future cash flows expected to arise from the continuing use of an asset or cash generating unit and from its disposal at the end of its useful life. Assessment is also done at each Balance Sheet date as to whether there is any indication that an impairment loss recognised for an asset in prior accounting periods may no longer exist or may have decreased, basis the assessment a reversal of an impairment loss for an asset is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss account.

p) TAXES ON INCOME

CURRENT TAX

Current tax is the expected tax payable/receivable on the taxable income/ loss for the year using applicable tax rates at the Balance Sheet date, and any adjustment to taxes in respect of previous years. It is measured using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date. DEFERRED TAX

Deferred tax is recognised in respect of temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the corresponding amounts used for taxation purposes. A deferred tax liability is recognised based on the expected manner of realisation or settlement of the carrying amount of assets and liabilities, using tax rates enacted, or substantively enacted, by the end of the reporting period.

Current tax assets and current tax liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle the asset and the liability on a net basis. Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities; and the deferred tax assets and the deferred tax liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority.

q) LEASES

The Company''s significant leasing arrangements are in respect of premises used for business, are accounted as a short term lease. The aggregate lease rentals payable are charged as rent in the statement of profit and loss (Refer note 29 of the Financials). These lease arrangements are cancellable in nature and can be terminated by giving notice for a period, which vary from one months to three months.

r) FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSACTION

s) EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing the net profit for the period attributable to the equity shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period. The Company did not have any potentially dilutive securities in any of the year presented.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation of Financial Statements:

The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with the Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in India (Indian GAAP) to comply with the Accounting Standards applicable under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013, read with Paragraph 7 of the Companies (Accounts) Rules, 2014 (as amended) and the relevant provisions of the Companies Act, 2013 ("the 2013 Act") as applicable. The financial statements have been prepared on an accrual basis and under the historical cost convention. The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of financial statements are consistent with those of previous year.

Use of Estimates:

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Indian GAAP requires estimates and assumptions to be made that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities on the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Although, these estimates are based upon management''s best knowledge of current events and actions, uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in the outcomes requiring a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets & liabilities in future period.

Inventories:

Trading goods are valued at cost or net realizable value, whichever is lower. The cost is determined on FIFO basis, and includes all costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in ordinary course of business, less estimated costs of completion and estimated costs necessary to make the sale.

Tangible Fixed Assets and Depreciation:

Fixed Assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Cost comprises the purchase price and directly attributable cost of bringing the asset to its working condition for its intended use. Depreciation has been charged on Fixed Assets on Written Down Method over useful lives of respective assets in the manner as prescribed in Schedule II of the Companies Act, 2013. Depreciation is charged on pro-rata basis for assets acquired or disposed of during the year. Gains & losses arising from sale/disposal of fixed assets are measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the assets and are recognised in the Statement of Profit & Loss when the asset is sold /disposed. Depreciation is not provided on assets acquired during the year and not put to use.

Cash Flow Statement:

The Cash Flow Statement is prepared by the "indirect method" set out in Accounting Standard 3 on "Cash Flow Statements" and presents the cash flows by operating, investing and financing activities of the Company.

Revenue Recognition:

Revenue is recognized to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Company and the revenue can be reliably measured. Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received net of discounts, rebates, and sales taxes or duty. Export Sales are booked at the rate on the date of transaction and the resultant gain or loss on realization or on translation is accounted as "Foreign Exchange Rate Fluctuation" and is dealt with in the statement of Profit and Loss Account. Other Income is accounted on accrual basis except where receipt of income is uncertain. Revenue is recognised as follows:

(a) Sale of goods Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised when an entity has delivered the products to the customer, the customer has accepted the products and collectibility of the related receivables is reasonably assured.

(b) Interest income

Interest income is recognised on a time-proportion basis using the effective interest method.

Dividend income is recognised when the right to receive payment is established.

Investments:

Investments are either classified as current or long-term investments. Current investments are carried at lower of cost and market value. Long-term investments are carried at cost of acquisitions, net of diminution in value, if any, which is other than temporary.

Employee Benefits:

a. Short-Term Employee Benefits

Short term employee benefits are recognised as an expense at the undiscounted amount expected to be paid over the period of services rendered by the employees to the Company.

b. Long-Term Employee Benefits

The Company has both defined-contribution and defined-benefit plans, of which some have assets in special funds or securities. The plans are financed by the Company and in the case of some defined contribution plans, it is financed by the Company along with its employees.

i) Defined-Contribution Plans

These are plans in which the Company pays pre-defined amounts to separate funds and does not have any legal or informal obligation to pay additional sums. These comprise of contributions to the employees'' provident fund, family pension fund and superannuation fund. The Company''s payments to the defined-contribution plans are reported as expenses during the period in which the employees perform the services that the payment covers.

ii) Defined-Benefit Plans

Expenses for defined-benefit gratuity plans are calculated as at the Balance Sheet date by independent actuaries in a manner that distributes expenses over the employee''s working life. These commitments are valued at the present value of the expected future payments, with consideration for calculated future salary increases, using a discount rate corresponding to the interest rate estimated by the actuary having regard to the interest rate on government bonds with a remaining term that is almost equivalent to the average balance working period of employees. Actuarial gains and losses are immediately recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

c. Other Employee Benefits

Compensated absences which accrue to employees is encashed in the financial year and not allowed to be carried forward. Such encashment is charged to profit and loss account in the same year.

Transactions in Foreign Currency:

a. Foreign currency transactions are recorded on initial recognition by applying the exchange rate prevailing on the date on which the transaction takes place.

b. As at the Balance Sheet date:

i) foreign currency monetary items are reported using the closing rate;

ii) non monetary items that are carried at historical cost and denominated in foreign currency are reported using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction; and

iii) non-monetary items which are carried at fair value or other similar valuation denominated in a foreign currency are reported using the exchange rates that existed when the values were determined.

c. Exchange differences arising on the settlement of monetary items or on reporting an enterprise''s monetary items at rates different from those at which they were initially recorded during the period, or reported in previous financial statements, are recognised as income or as expenses in the period in which they arise.

Borrowing Costs:

Borrowing costs that are attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets are capitalised as a part of the cost of such assets. A qualifying asset is one that necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use. All other borrowing costs are charged to revenue.

Segment Reporting:

Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise for which available discrete financial information is evaluated based on the a single operating segment ''Sale of computer peripherals , regularly by the chief operating decision maker, in deciding how to allocate resources and assessing performance.

Segment revenue, segment expenses, segment assets and segment liabilities have been identified to segments on the basis of their relationship to the operating activities of the segment.

Taxes on Income:

The Company''s income taxes include taxes on the Company''s taxable profits, adjustment attributable to earlier periods and changes in deferred taxes. Valuation of all tax liabilities / receivables is conducted at nominal amounts and in accordance with enacted tax regulations and tax rates or in the case of deferred taxes, those that have been substantially enacted.

Minimum Alternate Tax (MAT) paid in accordance with the tax laws, which gives future economic benefits 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 benefit associated with it will flow to the Company.

Earnings per Share:

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net profit/(loss) after tax attributable to equity shareholders by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net profit/(loss) after tax 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 equity shares considered for deriving basic earnings per share and the weighted average number of equity shares which could have been issued on the conversion

Taxation:

Income Tax expense represents the sum of tax currently payable and deferred tax.

Current tax:

The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from ''profit before tax'' as reported in the statement of profit and loss because it excludes 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 substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.

Deferred tax:

Deferred tax is recognised on temporary differences between the carrying amounts 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 to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary differences can be utilised. Such deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognised if the temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither taxable profit nor the accounting profit. The carrying amount of deferred tax assets 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 deferred income tax asset to be utilised. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period when the liability is settled or the asset is realised, based on the tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantially 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 cover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.

Current and deferred tax are recognised as an expense or income in the statement of 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.

Intangible Assets:

Intangible assets acquired separately are measured on initial recognition at cost. Intangible assets are amortized on the Straight Lines basis over the estimated useful economic life. The amortization period & the amortization method are reviewed at least at each financial year end. Gains & losses arising from de recognition of fixed assets are measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the assets and are recognised in the Statement of Profit & Loss when the asset is derecognized.

Provisions, Contingent Liabilities & Contingent Assets:

A provision is recognised when the company has a present obligation as a result of past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. Provisions involving substantial degree of estimation in measurement are recognized when there is a present obligation as a result of past events and it is probable that there will be an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits. Where no reliable estimate can be made, a disclosure is made as Contingent Liability. A disclosure for contingent liability is also made when there is a possible obligation or a present obligation that may, but probably will not; require an out flow of resources. Contingent Assets are neither recognized nor disclosed in the financial statements. When there is a possible or a present obligation in respect of which the likelihood of outflow of resources is remote, no provision or disclosure is made.
