Provisions are recognised when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past events and 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.
The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre-tax rate that reflects, when appropriate, the risks specific to the liability. When discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised as a finance cost. Provisions are reviewed at each Balance Sheet date and adjusted to reflect the current best estimates.
Contingent liability is disclosed in the case of :
- a present obligation arising from past events, when it is not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation.
- a present obligation arising from past events, when no reliable estimate is possible.
Contingent liabilities are disclosed in the Financial Statements by way of notes to accounts, unless possibility of an outflow of resources embodying economic benefit is remote. Contingent liabilities are disclosed on the basis of judgment of the management/independent experts. These are reviewed at each balance sheet date and are adjusted to reflect the current management estimate.
Contingent assets are neither recognised nor disclosed in the Financial Statements.
Basic earnings per equity share is calculated by dividing the net profit after tax for the year attributable to equity shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year.
Diluted earnings per equity share is computed by dividing adjusted net profit after tax by the aggregate of weighted average number of equity shares and dilutive potential equity shares during the year.
(i) Initial Recognition
The Company''s financial statements are presented in INR, which is also the Company''s functional currency. Transactions in foreign currencies are recorded on initial recognition in the functional currency at the exchange rates prevailing on the date of the transaction.
(ii) Measurement at the Balance Sheet Date
Foreign Currency monetary items of the Company, outstanding at the Balance Sheet date are restated at the year-end rates. Nonmonetary items which are carried at historical cost denominated in a foreign currency are reported using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction. Non-monetary items measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value is determined.
(iii) Treatment of exchange difference
Exchange differences on monetary items that arise, on settlement or, due to a different closing rate at Balance Sheet date, are recognised as income or expenses in the period in which they arise.
The Company recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Further, the Company evaluates the performance obligations, being distinct, to enable separate recognition and can impact timing of recognition of certain elements of multiple element arrangements.
Revenue from contracts with customers is recognized at the point in time when the Company satisfies a performance obligation by transferring control of a promised product or service to a customer at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for the sale of products and service, net of discount, taxes or duties. Any retrospective revision in prices is accounted for in the year of such revision.
Sale of Goods (Solar Power Generating System)
The Company''s revenue is derived from selling goods which are used in the solar panel installation at site, with revenue recognised at a point in time when control of the goods is transferred to the customer and the company retains none of the significant risks and rewards of ownership in the goods transferred.
The Company recognises revenue from the sale of goods measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, net of returns and allowances, trade discounts and volume rebates.
As per Ind AS 115, the Company determines whether there is a significant financing component in its contracts. However, the Company has decided to use practical expedient provided in Ind AS 115 and not to adjust the promised amount of consideration for the effects of a significant financing components in the contracts, where the Company expects, at contract inception that the period of completion of contract terms are one year or less.
Rendering of Services - Related to Solar Power System
The Company also renders services of installation of solar panels at site for its solar projects along with the goods, and Operation and Maintenance services after insallation of solar panels. The after sales services is rendered against independent contracts with customers or against assurance type warranty for goods sold. Revenue from sale of services is recognised at an amount entitled in exchange
for transferring services at a point in time to a customer, as per the elements of the contracts with customers.
With respect to Operation and Maintenance services contracts that existed immediately before the date of transition to Ind AS, for which the revenue is already recognised as per previous GAAP before the date of transition to Ind AS and the performance obligation for which is yet to be satisfied on the date of transition to Ind AS, the Company has adopted modified retrospective approach and consequently, the Company has not restated prior periods presented and the cumulative effect of initial application of Ind AS 115 on the said Operation and Maintenance revenue is recognised in the opening retained earnings on April 1, 2022 and corresponding credit to the Deferred Revenue - Sale of Service - Operation and Maintenance service in the Opening Balance Sheet. Subsequent revenue will be recognised as and when the performance obligation is satisfied over the tenure of the respective contracts with customers.
- Leasing of Electronic Vehicles
The Company has also entered into lease agreements with customers whereby the Company provides its commercial vehicles to the customers on an operating lease. The lease rental incomes arising from the said lease agreements are recognised as revenue in accordance with Ind AS 116 "Leasesâ.
Interest and Dividends and Other Income
Interest income on deposit with banks is recognised at effective interest rate applicable. Interest income from other financial assets is recognised at the effective interest rate method on initial recognition.
Dividend income from investments is recognised at the time the unconditional right to receive the dividend is established i.e. when the shareholder''s right to receive the dividend is established and it becomes probable that the economic benefits associated with the dividend will flow to the Company, and the amount of dividend can be measured reliably.
All Other incomes are recognised on accrual basis.
An item of income or expense which by its size, nature, type or incidence, requires disclosure in order to improve an understanding of the performance of the Company, is treated as an exceptional item and disclosed as such in the financial statements.
The Company''s lease asset classes primarily consist of leases for commercial vehicles (cars) and office premises. The Company evaluates if an arrangement qualifies to be a lease as per the requirements of Ind AS 116. Identification of a lease requires significant judgment. A contract is, or contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. The determination of whether an arrangement is (or contains) a lease is based on the substance of the arrangement at the inception of the lease. The arrangement is, or contains, a lease if fulfilment of the arrangement is dependent on the use of a specific asset or assets and the arrangement conveys a right to use the asset or assets, even if that right is not explicitly specified in an arrangement.
Effective from April 1, 2022, the Company has adopted Ind AS 116 "Leases", applied to all lease contracts existing on April 1, 2022 using the modified retrospective approach on the date of initial application.
Company as a Lessee
The Company assesses whether a contract contains a lease, at inception of a contract. A contract is, or contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. To assess whether a contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset, the Company assesses whether: (i) the contract involves the use of an identified asset (ii) the Company has substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the asset through the period of the lease and (iii) the Company has the right to direct the use of the asset. The Company uses significant judgement in assessing the lease term (including anticipated renewals) and the applicable discount rate. The determination of whether an arrangement is (or contains) a lease is based on the substance of the arrangement at the inception of the lease. The arrangement is, or contains, a lease if fulfilment of the arrangement is dependent on the use of a specific asset or assets and the arrangement conveys a right to use the asset or assets, even if that right is not explicitly specified in an arrangement.
At the date of commencement of the lease, the Company recognizes a right-of-use asset ("ROU") and a corresponding lease liability for all lease arrangements in which it is a lessee, except for leases with a term of twelve months or less (shortterm leases) and low value leases. For these shortterm and low value leases, the Company recognizes the lease payments as an operating expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.
Certain lease arrangements include the options to extend or terminate the lease before the end of the lease term. ROU assets and lease liabilities includes these options when it is reasonably certain that they will be exercised. Lease liabilities are remeasured with a corresponding adjustment to the related right of use asset if the Company changes its assessment if whether it will exercise an extension or a termination option.
The lease liability is initially measured at amortized cost at the present value of the future lease payments over the reasonably certain lease term. The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if not readily determinable, using the incremental borrowing rates in the country of domicile of these leases (the Company has taken rate of 10%).
The right-of-use assets are initially recognized at cost, which comprises the amount of the initial measurement of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or prior to the inception date of the lease along with any initial direct costs and restoration obligations less any lease incentives received.
Subsequently, the right-of-use assets are measured at cost less any accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. Right-of-use assets are depreciated from the commencement date on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease term and useful life of the underlying asset. The Company applies Ind AS-36 to determine whether a right-of-use asset is impaired and accounts for any identified impairment loss as described in the Point No.(d) of Note No. 3.3.
The interest cost on lease liability (computed using effective interest method), is expensed in the Statement of Profit and Loss, unless eligible for capitalization as "Borrowing costs".
The Company accounts for each lease component within the contract as a lease separately from nonlease components of the contract in accordance with Ind AS 116 and allocates the consideration in the contract to each lease component on the basis of the relative stand-alone price of the lease component and the aggregate stand-alone price of the non-lease components.
Any security deposits paid to lessor against the lease, if any, are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or the incremental borrowing rate (10%) from the date of commencement of the lease. The difference between the original amount of security deposits paid and the present value of such security deposits is added to the cost of ROU asset and depreciated over the lease term.
Lease liability and ROU asset have been separately presented in the Balance Sheet and lease payments have been classified as financing cash flows. Further, refer Note No. 50, classification of leases and other disclosures relating to leases.
Company as a Lessor
Leases in which the Company does not transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of an asset are classified as operating leases. Rental income from operating lease is recognised on a straight-line basis over the term of the relevant lease. Initial direct costs incurred in negotiating and arranging an operating lease are added to the carrying amount of the leased asset and recognised over the lease term on the same basis as rental income.
Any security deposits received from the lessee against the lease, if any, are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or the incremental borrowing rate (10%) from the date of commencement of the lease. The difference between the original amount of security deposits received and the present value of such security deposits is debited to the carrying value of such security deposits with corresponding credit to the Advance Lease Rentals - Non Current and Current. Such Advance Lease Rentals are recognised on a straight-line basis over the term of the relevant lease as rental income.
Leases are classified as finance leases when substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership transfer from the Company to the lessee. Amounts due from lessees under finance leases are recorded as receivables at the Company''s net investment in the leases. Finance lease income is allocated to accounting periods so as to reflect a constant periodic rate of return on the net investment outstanding in respect of the lease.
Employee benefits include salaries, wages, provident fund, employees'' state insurance fund, labour welfare fund, pension fund, gratuity and compensated absences.
All short term employee benefits are recognised at their undiscounted amount in the accounting period in which they are incurred. Short term Project related employee benefits are recognized as an expenses at the undiscounted amount in the Statement of Profit and Loss of the year in which the related service is rendered.
Defined Contribution Plans
The Company''s contribution to provident fund and pension fund is considered as defined contribution plan and is charged as an expense as they fall
due based on the amount of contribution required to be made and when services are rendered by the employees. The Company has no legal or constructive obligation to pay contribution in addition to its fixed contribution.
Defined Benefit Plans
Defined employee benefit plans comprising of gratuity are recognized based on the present value of defined benefit obligation which is computed using the projected unit credit method, with actuarial valuations being carried out by an independent actuary at the end of each annual reporting period. These are accounted either as current employee cost or included in cost of assets as permitted.
Net interest on the net defined liability is calculated by applying the discount rate at the beginning of the period to the net defined benefit liability or asset and is recognised the Statement of Profit and Loss except those included in cost of assets as permitted.
The service cost and the net interest cost would be charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss. Actuarial gains and losses arise due to difference in the actual experience and the assumed parameters and also due to changes in the assumptions used for valuation. The Company recognizes these remeasurements in the Other Comprehensive Income (OCI).
When the benefits of the plan are changed, or when a plan is curtailed or settlement occurs,the portion of the changed benefit related to past service by employees,or the gain or loss on curtailment or settlement, is recognized immediately in the Statement of Profit and Loss when the plan amendment or when a curtailment or settlement occurs.
The Gratuity Benefits liabilities of the Company are Unfunded. There are no minimum funding requirements for a Gratuity Benefits plan in India and there is no compulsion on the part of the Company to fully or partially pre-fund the liabilities under the Plan. Since the liabilities are unfunded, there is no Asset-Liability Matching strategy deviced for the plan.
Provision is made for compensated absence based on actuarial valuation, carried out by an independent actuary as at the balance sheet date.
Termination benefits, if any, are recognized as an expense as and when incurred.
Short-term Employee Benefits
The undiscounted amount of short-term employee benefits expected to be paid in exchange for the services rendered by employees are recognised
during the year when the employees render the service. These benefits include salaries, wages and performance incentive which are expected to occur within twelve months after the end of the period in which the employee renders the related service.
Non Current Employee Benefits
Compensated absences and other benefits like gratuity which are allowed to be carried forward over a period in excess of 12 months after the end of the period in which the employee renders the related service are recognised as a non-current liability at the present value of the defined benefit obligation as at the Balance Sheet date out of which the obligations are expected to be settled.
3.17 Taxes on Income
Income tax comprises Current and Deferred Tax. It is recognised in the Statement of Profit or Loss except to the extent that it relates to business combination or to an item recognised directly in equity or in other comprehensive income.
(a) Current Tax
Current income tax assets and / or liabilities comprise those obligations to, or claims from, fiscal authorities relating to the current or prior reporting periods, that are unpaid at the reporting date. Current tax is payable on taxable profit, which differs from profit or loss in the financial statements, because of items of income or expenses that are taxable or deductible in other years and items that are never taxable or deductible. Calculation of current tax is based on tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period and any adjustments to tax payable in respect of previous year.
Current tax assets and current tax liabilities are offset only if there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts, and it is intended to realise the asset and settle the liability on a net basis or simultaneously.
(b) Deferred Tax
Deferred tax is recognised using the balance sheet method, providing for 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 profits.
Deferred tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, the carry forward of unused tax credits and any unused
tax losses. Deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, and the carry forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilised, except when the deferred tax asset relating to the deductible temporary differences arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit or loss nor taxable profit or loss. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable temporary differences.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realized or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.
The measurement of deferred tax assets and liabilities reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Company expects, at the end of the reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.
Tax relating to items recognised directly in equity / other comprehensive income is recognised in respective head in equity / other comprehensive income item and not in the Statement of Profit & Loss.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each Balance Sheet date and is adjusted to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.
Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset only if a legally enforceable right exists to offset current tax assets against current tax liabilities and the deferred taxes relate to the same taxable entity and the same taxation authority.
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM).
Segment results that are reported to the CODM include items directly attributable to a segment as well as those that can be allocated on a reasonable basis. Unallocated items comprise mainly corporate
expenses, finance costs, income tax expenses and corporate income that are not directly attributable to segments. Revenue directly attributable to the segments is considered as segment revenue. Expenses directly attributable to the segments and common expenses allocated on a reasonable basis are considered as segment expenses.
Operating segments are identified and reported taking into account the different risks and returns, the organization structure and the internal reporting systems. Based on the same, the Company has determined its business segments as "Engineering, advisary & EPC of Solar Power Projects" and "Leasing of cars". There are two primary reportable segments, therefore the segment revenue, segment results, segment assets, segment liabilities and total cost incurred to acquire segment assets are all reflected in the Financial Statements.
Equity shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds.
Retained earnings include current and prior period retained profits. All transactions with owners of the Company are recorded separately within equity.
Dividend distribution (including interim dividend) to equity shareholders is accounted for in the year of actual distribution.
Investment properties are measured initially at cost, including transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, investment properties are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment loss, if any.
Free hold Land and Properties under construction are not depreciated. The management believes that the estimated useful lives are realistic and reflect fair approximation of the period over which the assets are likely to be used.
An investment property is derecognized upon disposal or when the investment property is permanently withdrawn from use and no future economic benefits are expected from the dispossal. Any gain or loss arising on de-recognition of the property (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in the Statement of Profit or Loss in the period in which the property is derecognized.
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.
The Company categorizes assets and liabilities measured at fair value into one of three levels depending on the ability to observe inputs employed in the measurement which are described as follows :
- Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
- Level 2 inputs are inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly, other than quoted prices included within Level 1 for the asset or liability.
- Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability reflecting significant modifications to observable related market data or Company''s assumptions about pricing by market participants.
For the purpose of fair value disclosures, the Company has determined classes of assets and liabilities on the basis of the nature, characteristics and risks of the asset or liability and the level of the fair value hierarchy as explained above.
Financial Instruments are recognised when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instruments.
Financial Instruments are initially measured at fair value except for trade receivables which are initially measured at transaction price. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial instruments (other than financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss) are added to or deducted from the fair value of the financial instruments, as appropriate, on initial recognition. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss are recognised immediately in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
I. Financial Assets
(a) Initial Recognition and Measurement
All financial assets are recognised initially at fair value plus, in case of financial assets not recorded at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs that are attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset, which are not at fair value through profit
and loss, are added to fair value on initial recognition. Transaction costs of financial assets carried at fair value through profit or loss are expensed in Statement of Profit and Loss.
(b) Subsequent Measurement
Financial assets are classified based on the business model within which the asset is held and on the basis of the financial asset''s contractual cash flow characteristics.
(i) Financial assets at amortised cost
A financial asset is subsequently measured at amortised cost if it is held within a business model whose objective is to hold the asset in order to collect contractual cash flows and the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. Such financial assets are measured at amortized cost using the Effective Interest Rate (EIR) method.
(ii) Financial assets at fair value through Other Comprehensive Income (FVOCI)
A financial asset is subsequently measured at fair value through other comprehensive income if it is held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets and the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
(iii) Financial assets at fair value through Profit or Loss (FVTPL)
A financial asset is measured at fair value through profit or loss unless they are 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 at fair value through profit or loss are immediately recognised in Statement of Profit and Loss.
(iv) Investment in Equity Instruments
All equity investments in entities other than subsidiaries, associates and joint venture companies are measured at fair value. Equity instruments which are held for trading are classified as at FVTPL. For all other equity instruments, the Company decides to classify the same either as at FVOCI or FVTPL. The election is made on an instrument-by-instrument basis. The classification is made on initial recognition and is irrevocable.
Equity instruments included within the FVTPL category are measured at fair value with all changes recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
If the Company decides to classify an equity instrument as at FVOCI, then all fair value changes on the instrument, excluding dividends, are recognized in the OCI. Dividends on such equity instruments are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss. There is no recycling of the amounts from OCI to Statement of Profit and Loss, even on sale/ disposal of investments. However, the Company may transfer the cumulative gain or loss within equity on sale / disposal of the investments.
(c) Impairment of Financial Assets
The Company assesses on a forward looking basis the Expected Credit Losses (ECL) associated with its assets measured at amortised cost and assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income. The impairment methodology applied depends on whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk.
(d) Derecognition of Financial Assets
A financial asset is derecognised when :
- The Company has transferred the right to receive cash flows from the financial assets or
- Retains the contractual rights to receive the cash flows of the financial assets, but assumes a contractual obligation to pay the cash flows to one or more recipients.
Where the Company transfers the financial asset, it evaluates the extent to which it retains the risk and rewards of the ownership of the financial assets. If the Company transfers substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset, the Company shall derecognise the financial asset and recognise separately as assets or liabilities any rights and obligations created or retained in the transfer. If the Company retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset, the Company shall continue to recognise the financial asset.
Where the Company has neither transferred a financial asset nor retains substantially all risks and rewards of the ownership of the financial asset, the financial asset is derecognised if the Company has not retained control of the financial assets. Where the Company retains control of the financial assets, the asset is continued to be recognised to the extent of continuing involvement in the financial asset.
II. Financial Liabilities
Initial Recognition and Subsequent Measurement
All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value and in case of borrowings and payables, net of directly attributable cost. Financial liabilities are subsequently carried at amortized cost using the effective interest method. For trade and other payables maturing within one year from the Balance Sheet date, the carrying amounts approximate fair value due to the short maturity of these instruments. Changes in the amortised value of liability are recorded as finance cost.
III. Equity Instruments
Equity Instruments issued by the Company are recorded at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs.
IV. Classification as Debt or Equity Instruments
Debt and equity instruments issued by the Company are classified as either financial liabilities or as equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangements and the definitions of a financial liability and an equity instrument.
V. Compound Financial Instruments
The component parts of compound financial instruments issued by the Company are classified separately as financial liabilities and equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangements. A conversion option that will be settled by the exchange of a fixed amount of cash or another financial asset for a fixed number of the Company''s own equity instruments is an equity instrument.
At the date of issue, the fair value of the liability component is estimated using the prevailing market interest rate for similar non-convertible instruments. This amount is recognized as a liability on an amortised cost basis using the effective interest method until extinguished upon conversion or at the instrument''s maturity date. The conversion option classified as equity is determined by deducting the amount of the liability component from the fair value of the compound financial instrument as a whole. This is recognized and included in equity, net of income tax effects, and is not subsequently remeasured. In addition, the conversion option classified as equity will remain in equity until the conversion option is exercised, in which case, the balance recognized in equity will be transferred to other component of equity. When the conversion option remains unexercised at the maturity date of the convertible note, the balance recognized in equity will be transferred to retained earnings. No gain or loss is recognized in profit or loss upon conversion or expiration of the conversion option.
Transaction costs that relate to the issue of the convertible notes are allocated to the liability and equity components in proportion to the allocation of the gross proceeds. Transaction costs relating to the equity component are recognized directly in equity. Transaction costs relating to the liability component are included in the carrying amount of the liability component and are amortised over the lives of the convertible notes using the effective interest method.
VI. Fair Value of Financial Instruments
In determining the fair value of its financial instruments, the Company uses a variety of methods and assumptions that are based on market conditions and risks existing at each reporting date. The methods used to determine
fair value include discounted cash flow analysis, available quoted market prices. All methods of assessing fair value result in general approximation of value, and such value may vary from actual realization on future date.
VII. Offsetting of Financial Instruments
Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the Balance Sheet, if there is a currently enforceable legal right to offset the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis, to realise the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.
VIII. Investment in Subsidiaries, Joint Ventures and Associates
The Company records the investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures at cost less impairment loss, if any.
When the Company issues financial guarantees on behalf of subsidiaries, initially it measures the financial guarantees at their fair values and subsequently measures at the higher of:
(i) the amount of loss allowance determined in accordance with impairment requirements of Ind AS 109 ''Financial Instruments'' and
(ii) the amount initially recognized less, when appropriate, the cumulative amount of income recognised in accordance with the principles of Ind AS 115 ''Revenue from Contracts with Customers''.
The Company records the initial fair value of financial guarantee as deemed investment with a corresponding liability recorded as deferred revenue under financial guarantee obligation. Such deemed investment is added to the carrying amount of investment in subsidiaries. Deferred revenue is recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss over the remaining period of financial guarantee issued as other income.
On disposal of investment in subsidiary, associate and joint venture, the difference between net disposal proceeds and the carrying amounts (including corresponding value of dilution in deemed investment) are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Where the Company is a subscriber in respect of Compulsory Convertible Debentures (CCDs) and Optionally Convertible Debentures (OCDs)
issued by subsidiaries & joint ventures, such Investment in CCDs and OCDs are recognized at fair value. The difference between the carrying value of the Investment in CCDs and OCDs and fair value of such Investment in CCDs and OCDs is credited to the carrying value of Investments in CCDs and OCDs with a corresponding debit to Deemed Investment. The Investment in CCDs and OCDs are subsequently measured at amortized cost. The Deemed Investment is added to the carrying amount of investment in subsidiaries or joint ventures and carried at cost.
Government grants are recognised at their fair value where there is reasonable assurance that the grant will be received and all attached conditions will be complied with.
When the grant relates to an expense item, it is deferred and recognised as income in the Statement of Profit and Loss on a systematic basis over the periods necessary to match the related costs, which they are intended to compensate.
When the grant relates to an asset or a non-monetary item, it is reduced from the gross amount of the asset to calculate book value. This signifies that the grant is being recognized in profit and loss account as a reduced charge of depreciation over the life of such asset.
The preparation of the Company''s financial statements requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities, the accompanying disclosures, and the disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Estimates and assumptions are continuously evaluated and are based on management''s experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets or liabilities affected in future periods.
In particular, the Company has identified the following areas where significant judgments, estimates and assumptions are required. Further information on each of these areas and how they impact the various accounting policies are described below and also in the relevant notes to the financial statements. Changes in estimates are accounted for prospectively.
In the process of applying the Company''s accounting
policies, management has made the following
judgments, which have the most significant effect on
the amounts recognised in the financial statements.
(a) Classification of Investments
Judgement is required in assessing the level of control obtained in a transaction to acquire an interest in another entity; depending upon the facts and circumstances in each case, the Company may obtain control, joint control or significant influence over the entity or arrangement. Transactions which give the Company control of a business are business combinations. If the Company obtains joint control of an arrangement, judgement is also required to assess whether the arrangement is a joint operation or a joint venture. If the Company has neither control nor joint control, it may be in a position to exercise significant influence over the entity, which is then classified as an associate.
(b) Determining whether an arrangement contain leases and classification of leases
The Company enters into hiring/service arrangements for various assets/services. The Company evaluates whether a contract contains a lease or not, in accordance with the principles of Ind AS 116. This requires significant judgements including but not limited to, whether asset is implicitly identified, substantive substitution rights available with the supplier, decision making rights with respect to how the underlying asset will be used, economic substance of the arrangement, etc.
Determining lease term (including extension and termination options)
The Company considers 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. Assessment of extension/termination options is made on lease by lease basis, on the basis of relevant facts and circumstances. The lease term is reassessed if an option is actually exercised. In case of contracts. where the Company has the option to hire and de-hire the underlying asset in some circumstances (such as operational requirements), the lease term is considered to be initial contract period.
Identifying lease payments for computation of lease liability
To identify fixed (including in-substance fixed) lease payments. the Company consider the non-operating day rate/standby as minimum fixed lease payments for the purpose of computation of lease liability and corresponding right-of-use asset.
Low value leases
Ind AS 116 requires assessment of whether an underlying asset is of low value. if lessee opts for the option of not to apply the recognition and measurement requirements of Ind AS 116 to leases where the underlying asset is of low value. For the purpose of determining low value, the Company has considered nature of assets and concept of materiality as defined in Ind AS 1 and the conceptual framework of Ind AS which involve significant judgement.
Contingent liabilities may arise from the ordinary course of business in relation to claims against the Company, including legal, contractor, land access and other claims. By their nature, contingencies will be resolved only when one or more uncertain future events occur or fail to occur. The assessment of the existence, and potential quantum, of contingencies inherently involves the exercise of significant judgments and the use of estimates regarding the outcome of future events.
The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year, are described below. The Company based its assumptions and estimates on parameters available when the standalone financial statements were prepared. Existing circumstances and assumptions about future developments, however, may change due to market change or circumstances arising beyond the control of the Company. Such changes are reflected in the assumptions when they occur.
(a) Impairment of Non-financial Assets
The Company assesses at each reporting date whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. If any indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset
is required, the Company estimates the asset''s recoverable amount. An asset''s recoverable amount is the higher of an asset''s or CGU''s fair value less costs of disposal and its value in use. It is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets or groups of assets. Where the carrying amount of an asset or CGU exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount.
In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. In determining fair value less costs of disposal, recent market transactions are taken into account. If no such transactions can be identified, an appropriate valuation model is used. The calculations are corroborated by valuation multiples, quoted share prices for publicly traded securities or other available fair value indicators.
(b) Estimation of Defined Benefit Obligations
The cost of the defined benefit plan and other post-employment benefits and the present value of such obligation are determined using actuarial valuations. An actuarial valuation involves making various assumptions that may differ from actual developments in the future. These include the determination of the discount rate, future salary increases, mortality rates and attrition rate. Due to the complexities involved in the valuation and its long term nature, a defined benefit obligation is highly sensitive to changes in these assumptions. All assumptions are reviewed at each reporting date.
(c) Fair Value Measurement of Financial Instruments
When the fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities recorded in the Balance Sheet cannot be measured based on quoted prices in active market, their fair value is measured using valuation techniques including the DCF model. The inputs to these models are taken from observable markets where possible, but where this is not feasible, a degree of judgment is required in establishing fair values. Judgements include considerations of inputs such as liquidity risk, credit risk and volatility. Changes in assumptions about these factors could affect the reported fair value of financial instruments.
(d) Estimation of Current Tax and Deferred Tax
Management judgment is required for the calculation of provision for income - taxes and deferred tax assets and liabilities. The Company reviews at each Balance Sheet date the carrying amount of deferred tax assets. The factors used in estimates may differ from actual outcome which could lead to adjustment to the amounts reported in the financial statements.
(e) Impairment of Financial Assets
The impairment provisions for financial assets are based on assumptions about risk of default and expected credit loss rates (ECL). The Company uses judgments in making these assumptions and selecting the inputs to the impairment calculation, based on Company''s past history, existing market conditions as well as forward looking estimates at the end of each reporting period.
(f) Impairment of Investments in Subsidiaries, Joint Ventures and Associates
The Company reviews its carrying value of investments carried at cost (net of impairment, if any) annually. If the estimated recoverable amount is less than its carrying amount, the impairment loss is accounted for in the statement of profit and loss.
(g) Determining discount rate for computation of lease liability
For computation of lease liability. Ind AS 116 requires lessee to use their incremental borrowing rate as discount rate if the rate implicit in the lease contract cannot be readily determined. For all the leases, the Company considers the incremental borrowing rate at 10% and other lease specific adjustments like relevant lease term.
The Group has two principal operating and reporting segments; viz.
(a) EPC : This includes Engineering, advisory & EPC of Solar Power Projects.
(b) Lease : This includes leasing of cars.
The accounting policies adopted for segment reporting are in line with the accounting policy of the Company with
following additional policies for segment reporting :
(i) Revenue and Expenses have been identified to a segment on the basis of relationship to operating activities of the segment. Revenue and Expenses which relate to enterprise as a whole and are not allocable to a segment on reasonable basis have been disclosed as "Unallocable".
(ii) Segment Assets and Segment Liabilities represent Assets and Liabilities in respective segments. Investments, tax related assets and other assets and liabilities that cannot be allocated to a segment on reasonable basis have been disclosed as "Unallocable".
The Company''s Risk Management framework encompasses practices relating to the identification, analysis, evaluation, treatment, mitigation and monitoring of the strategic, external and operational controls risks to achieving the Company''s business objectives. It seeks to minimize the adverse impact of these risks, thus enabling the Company to leverage market opportunities effectively and enhance its long-term competitive advantage. The focus of risk management is to assess risks and deploy mitigation measures.
The Company''s activities expose it to variety of financial risks namely market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The Company has various financial assets such as security deposits, trade and other receivables and cash and bank balances directly related to the business operations. The Company''s principal financial liabilities comprise of borrowings,
lease liabilities and security deposits. The Company''s senior management''s focus is to foresee the unpredictability and minimize potential adverse effects on the Company''s financial performance. The Company''s overall risk management procedures to minimize the potential adverse effects of financial market on the Company''s performance are outlined hereunder :
The Company''s Board of Directors have overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the Company''s risk management framework.
The Company''s risk management is carried out by the management in consultation with the Board of Directors. They provide principles for overall risk management, as well as policies covering specific risk areas.
The note explains the sources of risk which the entity is exposed to and how the entity manages the risk.
(a) Credit Risk :
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations, and arises principally from the Company''s receivables from customers and from its financial activities including deposits with banks and other financial instruments. The Company establishes an impairment allowance based on Expected Credit Loss model that represents its estimate of incurred losses in respect of trade and other receivables, advances and investments.
(i) Trade Receivables :
The Company extends credits to customers in normal course of the business. The Company considers the factors such as credit track record in the market of each customer and past dealings for extension of credit to the customers. The Company monitors the payment track record of each customer and outstanding customer receivables are regularly monitored. The Company evaluates the concentration of risk with respect to trade receivables as low, as its customers are located at several jurisdictions and industries and operate in large independent markets. The Company also takes advances and security deposits from customers which mitigate the credit risk to an extent.
The average credit period for customers in case of sale of goods and services varies in each case. Generally, no interest has been charged on the receivables. Allowances against doubtful debts are recognised against trade receivables based on estimated irrecoverable amounts determined by reference to past default experience of the counterparty and an analysis of the counterparty''s current financial position.
Before accepting any new customer, the Company uses an internal credit system to assess the potential customer''s credit quality and defines credit limit of customer. Limits attributed to customers are reviewed periodically.
The Company generally does not hold any collateral or other credit enhancements over any of its trade receivables (except in the nature of security deposits arising from the Company''s leasing operations) nor does it have a legal right of offset against any amounts owed by the Company to the counterparty.
Expected Credit Loss (ECL) :
The Company has used a practical expedient by computing the expected credit loss allowance for trade receivables based on a provision matrix. The provision matrix takes into account historical credit loss experience and adjusted for internal and external information. The expected credit loss allowance is based on the ageing of the days the receivables are due and the rates as given in the provision matrix. The provision matrix at the end of the reporting period is as follows:
(ii) Cash and cash equivalents and other bank balances :
The Company considers factors such as track record, size of institution, market reputation and service standard to select the banks with which deposits are maintained. The Company does not maintain significant deposit balances other than those required for its day to day operations. Credit risk on cash and cash equivalents is limited as these are generally held or invested in deposits with banks and financial institutions with good credit ratings.
(b) Liquidity Risk :
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will face in meeting its obligations associated with its financial liabilities. The Company''s approach in managing liquidity is to ensure that it will have sufficient funds to meet its liabilities when due without incurring unacceptable losses. In doing this, management considers both normal and stressed conditions.
The Company''s objective is to maintain optimum levels of liquidity to meet its cash and collateral requirements. The Company relies on a mix of borrowings, capital and excess operating cash flows to meet its needs for funds. The current committed lines of credit are sufficient to meet its short to medium term expansion needs. The Company monitors rolling forecasts of its liquidity requirements to ensure that it has sufficient cash to meet operational needs while maintaining sufficient headroom on its undrawn committed borrowing facilities so that it does not breach borrowing limits.
(C) Market Risk :
Market risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. Market risk comprises three types of risks : foreign currency risk, interest risk and other price risk such as commodity risk.
(i) Foreign Currency Risk :
Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of an exposure will fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates and arises where transactions are done in foreign currencies. It arises mainly where receivables and payables exist due to transactions entered in foreign currencies. The Company evaluates exchange rate exposure arising from foreign currency transactions and follows approved policy parameters utilizing forward foreign exchange contracts whenever felt necessary. The Company does not enter into financial instrument transactions for trading or speculative purpose.
The Company transacts business primarily in Indian Rupees, USD, AED and OMR. The Company has foreign currency trade payables, receivables and loans and advances, and is therefore, exposed to foreign exchange risk. Certain transactions of the Company act as a natural hedge as a portion of both assets and liabilities are denominated in similar foreign currencies. For the remaining exposure to foreign exchange risk, the Company adopts a policy of selective hedging based on risk perception of the management.
(iii) Commodity Price Risk :
The Company is exposed to the movement in the price of key raw materials and other traded goods in the domestic and international markets. The Company has in place policies to manage exposure to fluctuation in prices of key raw materials used in operations. The Company enters into contracts for procurement of raw materials and traded goods, most of the transactions are short term fixed price contracts and a few transactions are long term fixed price contracts.
Capital Management :
The Company manages its capital to be able to continue as a going concern wh
