A Basis of Preparation
The financial statements have been prepared and presented in accordance
with Indian Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) under the
historical cost convention on the accrual basis. GAAP comprises
accounting standards notified by the Central Government of India under
Section 211 (3C) of the Companies Act, 1956, other pronouncements of
Institute of Chartered Accountants of India, the provisions of
Companies Act, 1956 and guidelines issued by Securities and Exchange
Board of India.
b Use of Estimates
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities on the date of
financial statements and the reported amount of revenue and expenses
during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
estimates. Any revision to accounting estimates is recognized
prospectively in the current and future periods.
c Fixed assets, Intangible assets, Depreciation and Amortization
Fixed assets are stated at cost of acquisition or construction, less
accumulated depreciation. Cost includes inward freight, duties, taxes
and incidental expenses related to acquisition and installation of the
asset. Borrowing costs related to the acquisition or construction of
the qualifying fixed assets for the period up to the completion of
their acquisition or constructions are capitalized. Depreciation for
the year is provided on the wdv method at the rates and in the manner
specified in Schedule XIV of the Companies Act, 1956.
Depreciation is charged on pro-rata basis for assets purchased / sold
during the year. Individual assets costing less than Rs. 5,000/- are
depreciated at 100%.
Intangible assets are recorded at the consideration paid for
acquisition and are amortized over their estimated useful lives on a
straight-line basis, commencing from the date the asset is available to
the Company for its use.
Technical Know-how fees and computer software are amortized over a
period of 6 and 4 years respectively. Advances paid towards
acquisition of fixed assets and the cost of assets not ready to be put
to use before the yearend are disclosed under capital work in progress.
d Impairment of Assets
The Company assesses at each balance sheet date whether there is any
indication that an asset may be impaired. If any such indication
exists, the Company estimates the recoverable amount (higher of net
realizable value and value in use) of the asset. If such recoverable
amount of the asset or the recoverable amount of the cash generating
unit to which the asset belongs is less than the carrying amount, the
carrying amount is reduced to its recoverable amount. The reduction is
treated as an impairment loss and is recognized in the profit and loss
account. If at the balance sheet date there is an indication that a
previously assessed impairment loss no longer exists, the recoverable
amount is reassessed and the asset is reflected at the recoverable
amount subject to a maximum of depreciable historical cost.
e Operating Lease
Operating lease payments are recognized as an expense in the profit and
loss account on a straight line basis over the lease term.
f Investments
Trade investments are investments made to enhance the Company''s
business interests. Investments are either classified as current or
long-term based on the management''s intention. Current investments are
carried at the lower of cost and fair value. Long-term investments are
carried at cost and provisions recorded to recognize any decline, other
than temporary, in the carrying value of each investment.
g Inventories
Inventories of raw & packing materials are valued at the lower of cost
on a first in first out basis and net realizable value. Work
in-process, stores and spare parts and finished goods are valued at the
lower of cost and net realizable value. In the case of manufactured
inventories, costs are generally calculated at standards adjusted to
actual and include cost of conversion and other costs incurred in
bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. The
excise duty in respect of closing inventory of finished goods is
included as part of inventory. The amount of CENVAT credits in respect
of materials consumed for sales is deducted from the cost of materials
consumed.
h Retirement benefits
Gratuity and pension costs with respect to defined benefit schemes are
accrued based on actuarial valuations, carried out by an independent
actuary as at the balance sheet date. These contributions are made to a
registered trust. Provision is made for leave encashment based on
actuarial valuation, carried out by an independent actuary as at the
balance sheet date.
The Company''s contribution to Provident Fund, Employees'' State
Insurance Scheme, and defined contribution plans are charged to the
Profit and Loss Account when incurred.
i Revenue recognition
Revenue from the sale of goods is recognized on despatch of goods to
customers which generally coincides with the transfer of all
significant risks and rewards of ownership to the buyer. Revenue from
service is recognized on rendering of services to customers. Sales
amounts include excise duty but exclude sales tax and trade discounts.
Dividend income is recognized in the year when the right to receive
payment is established. Interest income is recognized on time
proportion basis.
j Transactions in foreign currency
Foreign currency transactions will be accounted at the exchange rates
prevailing on the date of the relevant transactions. Exchange
differences arising on foreign currency transactions settled during the
year will be recognized in the Profit and Loss Account of the year.
Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies as at
the Balance Sheet date would be translated at the closing exchange
rates on that date. The resultant exchange differences will be
recognized in the Profit and Loss Account.
k Taxation
Income tax expense comprises current tax (i.e. amount of tax for the
year determined in accordance with the income tax law) and deferred tax
charge or credit (reflecting the tax effects of the timing differences
between accounting income and taxable income for the year). The
deferred tax charge or credit and the corresponding deferred tax
liabilities or assets are recognized using the tax rates that have been
enacted or substantially enacted by the balance sheet date. Deferred
tax assets are recognized only to the extent there is reasonable
certainty that the assets can be realized in future; however, where
there is unabsorbed depreciation or carry forward of losses under
taxation laws, deferred tax assets are recognized only if there is
virtual certainty of realization of such assets. Deferred tax assets
are reviewed at each balance sheet date and written down or written up
to reflect the amount that is reasonably / virtually certain (as the
case may be) to be realized.
Current tax and deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset to the
extent to which the Company has a legally enforceable right to set off.
Deferred tax assets are written back this years an it is not likely to
be of any advantage.
l Earnings per share
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net profit or loss for
the period attributable to equity shareholders by the weighted average
number of shares outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per
share amounts are computed after adjusting the effects of all dilutive
potential equity shares. The number of shares used in computing diluted
earnings per share comprises the weighted average number of shares
considered for deriving basic earnings per share, and also the weighted
average number of equity shares, which could have been issued on the
conversion of all dilutive potential shares. In computing dilutive
earnings per share, only potential equity shares that are dilutive and
that decrease profit per share are included.
m Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets
The Company creates a provision when there is present obligation as a
result of past event that probably requires an outflow of resources and
a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. 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. Where there is a possible obligation
or a present obligation in respect of which the likelihood of outflow
of resources is remote, no provision or disclosure is made. Contingent
assets are neither recognised nor disclosed in the financial
statements.
n Cash flows
Cash flows are reported using the indirect method, whereby profit
before tax is adjusted for the effects of transactions of a non-cash
nature and any deferrals or accruals of past or future cash receipts or
payments. The cash flows from regular revenue generating, financing and
investing activities of the Company are segregated.
