1. Corporate information

Gulf Oil Lubricants India Limited (the ‘Company’) is a public limited Company incorporated in India with its registered office at IN Centre, 49/50, 12th Road, MIDC , Andheri (East), Mumbai- 400 093

The equity shares of the Company are listed on two recognised stock exchanges in India. The Company is engaged in the business of manufacturing, marketing and trading of automotive and non automotive lubricants.

2. Significant accounting policies

2.1 Basis of preparation

Statement of Compliance with Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS): The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Indian Accounting Standard (“Ind AS”) notified under the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 as notified under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 (“the Act”) and other relevant provisions of the Act and other accounting principles generally accepted in India. The date of transition to Ind AS is April 01, 2016. The financial statements have been prepared using the historical cost convention except for certain assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value, defined benefit plans -plan assets measured at fair value and share-based payments.

The Company prepared its financial statements upto March 31, 2017 in accordance with the requirements of the Accounting Standards notified under the Companies (Accounting Standards) Rules, 2006 (as amended) and notified under Section 133 of the Act and other relevant provisions of the Act.

First-time adoption: In accordance with Ind AS 101 on First-time adoption of Indian Accounting Standards, the Company’s first Ind AS financial statements include, three balance sheets viz. the opening balance sheet as at April 01, 2016 and balance sheets as at March 31, 2017 and as at March 31, 2018, and, two statements each of profit and loss, cash flows and changes in equity for the years ended March 31, 2017 and March 31, 2018 together with related notes. The same accounting policies have been used for all periods presented, except where the Company has made use of exceptions or exemptions allowed under Ind AS 101 in the preparation of the opening Ind AS balance sheet which have been disclosed in note 48.

2.2 Use of estimates and judgements

The preparation of financial statements requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions in the application of accounting policies that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates. Continuous evaluation is done on the estimation and judgments based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised prospectively.

2.3 Critical accounting estimates:

A. Useful lives of property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment represent a material portion of the Company’s asset base. The periodic charge of depreciation is derived after estimating useful life of an asset and expected residual value at the end of its useful life. The useful lives and residual values of assets are estimated by the management at the time the asset is acquired and reviewed periodically, including at each financial year end. The lives are based on various external and internal factors including historical experience, relative efficiency and operating costs and change in technology.

B. Defined benefit obligations

Defined benefit obligations are measured at fair value for financial reporting purposes. Fair value determined by actuary is based on actuarial assumptions. Management judgement is required to determine such actuarial assumptions. Such assumptions are reviewed annually using the best information available with the Management.

C. Contingencies

In the normal course of business, contingent liabilities may arise from litigation and other claims against the Company. Potential liabilities that are possible but not probable of crystalising or are very difficult to quantify reliably are treated as contingent liabilities. Such liabilities are disclosed in the notes but are not recognised.

2.4 New standards/ amendments to existing standard issued but not yet adopted

Following new standards, interpretations and amendments to the existing standards have been published and are not mandatory for March 31, 2018 reporting periods and have not been early adopted by the Company. The Company is currently assessing the impact of these amendments and intends to adopt these standards when they become effective.

a. Ind AS 115 - Revenue from contracts with customers: Ind AS 115, Revenue from contracts with customers deals with revenue recognition and establishes principles for reporting useful information to users of financial statements about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from an entity’s contracts with customers. Revenue is recognised when a customer obtains control of a promised good or service and thus has the ability to direct the use and obtain the benefits from the good or service in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services. The standard replaces Ind AS 18 Revenue and Ind AS 11 Construction contracts and related appendices.

A new five-step process must be applied before revenue can be recognised:

1. identify contracts with customers

2. identify the separate performance obligation

3. determine the transaction price of the contract

4. allocate the transaction price to each of the separate performance obligations, and

5. recognise the revenue as each performance obligation is satisfied.

The new standard is mandatory for financial years commencing on or after 1 April 2018 and early application is not permitted. The standard permits either a full retrospective or a modified retrospective approach for the adoption.

b. Appendix B to Ind AS 21 Foreign currency transactions and advance consideration: The

MCA has notified Appendix B to Ind AS 21, Foreign currency transactions and advance consideration. The appendix clarifies how to determine the date of transaction for the exchange rate to be used on initial recognition of a related asset, expense or income where an entity pays or receives consideration in advance for foreign currency-denominated contracts.

For a single payment or receipt, the date of the transaction should be the date on which the entity initially recognises the non-monetary asset or liability arising from the advance consideration (the prepayment or deferred income/contract liability). If there are multiple payments or receipts for one item, date of transaction should be determined as above for each payment or receipt.

The appendix can be applied:

1. Retrospectively for each period presented applying Ind AS 8;

2. Prospectively to items in scope of the appendix that are initially recognized on or after the beginning of the reporting period in which the appendix is first applied (i.e. 1 April 2018 for entities with March year-end); or from the beginning of a prior reporting period presented as comparative information (i.e. 1 April 2017 for entities with March year-end).

c. Amendments to Ind AS 40 Investment property - Transfers of investment property:

The amendments clarify that transfers to, or from, investment property can only be made if there has been a change in use that is supported by evidence. A change in use occurs when the property meets, or ceases to meet, the definition of investment property. A change in intention alone is not sufficient to support a transfer. The list of evidence for a change of use in the standard was re-characterised as a non- exhaustive list of examples and scope of these examples have been expanded to include assets under construction/ development and not only transfer of completed properties.

The amendment provides two transition options. Entities can choose to apply the amendment:

1. Retrospectively without the use of hindsight; or

2. Prospectively to changes in use that occur on or after the date of initial application (i.e. 1 April 2018 for entities with March year-end). At that date, an entity shall reassess the classification of properties held at that date and, if applicable, reclassify properties to reflect the conditions that exist as at that date.

d. Amendments to Ind AS 12 Income taxes regarding recognition of deferred tax assets on unrealised losses: The amendments clarify the accounting for deferred taxes where an asset is measured at fair value and that fair value is below the asset’s tax base. They also clarify certain other aspects of accounting for deferred tax assets set out below:

1. A temporary difference exists whenever the carrying amount of an asset is less than its tax base at the end of the reporting period.

2. The estimate of future taxable profit may include the recovery of some of an entity’s assets for more than its carrying amount if it is probable that the entity will achieve this. For example, when a fixed-rate debt instrument is measured at fair value, however, the entity expects to hold and collect the contractual cash flows and it is probable that the asset will be recovered for more than its carrying amount.

3. Where the tax law restricts the source of taxable profits against which particular types of deferred tax assets can be recovered, the overability of the deferred tax assets can only be assessed in combination with other deferred tax assets of the same type.

4. Tax deductions resulting from the reversal of deferred tax assets are excluded from the estimated future taxable profit that is used to evaluate the recoverability of those assets. This is to avoid double counting the deductible temporary differences in such assessment.

An entity shall apply the amendments to Ind AS 12 retrospectively in accordance with Ind AS 8. However, on initial application of the amendment, the change in the opening equity of the earliest comparative period may be recognised in opening retained earnings (or in another component of equity, as appropriate), without allocating the change between opening retained earnings and other components of equity.

b. Rights, preferences and restrictions attached to shares

The company has only one class of equity share having a par value of Rs.2 per share (previous year Rs.2 per share). Each shareholder is eligible to one vote per share held. The dividend proposed by the Board of directors is subject to the approval of shareholders in the ensuing Annual General Meeting, except in case of interim dividend. In the event of liquidation, the equity shareholders are eligible to receive the remaining assets of the Company after distribution of all preferential amounts, in proportion to their shareholding.

e. Shares allotted as fully paid up pursuant to scheme of arrangement without payment being received in cash

49,572,490 equity shares of Rs.2 each fully paid were issued on June 12, 2014 to the shareholders of GOCL Corporation Limited pursuant to the scheme of arrangement between the Company, GOCL Corporation Limited & their Shareholders without payment being received in cash.

f. Shares reserved for issue under options

Information relating to GOLIL Stock Options Plan including details of options issued , exercised and lapsed during the financial year and options outstanding at the end of the reporting period, is set out in note 41.

Note 3- Lease

Operating Lease: Where the Company is a Leassee

The Company’s significant leasing arrangements are in respect of operating leases for premises. The leasing arrangements, range generally between 11 months to 5 years and are usually renewable by mutual consent on agreed terms. All the lease agreements can be terminated as per termination clause of each individual lease agreement. The lease rents paid/payable charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss aggregate to Rs.749.13 Lakhs (March 31, 2017 : Rs.659.13 Lakhs).

Note 4- Segment Information

(a) Description of segments and principal activities

Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) of the Company. The CODM is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments of the Company.

The Company has integrated its organisation structure with respect to its automotive and non-automotive business considering that the synergies, risks and returns associated with business operations are not predominantly distinct. The Company has aligned its internal financial reporting system in line with its existing organisation structure. As a result the Company’s reportable business segment consists of a single segment of “Lubricants” in terms of Ind AS 108.

Pursuant to the Scheme of arrangement between GOCL, the Company and their respective shareholders and creditors, the “Lubricants Undertaking” of GOCL was demerged and transferred into the Company w.e.f. April 1, 2014 (the Appointed Date under the Scheme). Pursuant to the above scheme, the Company has issued a Deed of Undertaking to make contributions to HGHL for meeting any deficiency in the event of obligors’ inability to service the said facility. However, the Company has received back to back corporate guarantee from Gulf Oil International Limited, Cayman to secure its entire obligations, if any, arising out of the said Deed of Undertaking.

Note 5 -Employee benefits

Company has classified the various benefits provided as under:-1) Defined Contribution Plans

The Company has certain defined contribution plans. Contributions are made to Provident Fund in India for employees at the rate of 12% of basic salary as per regulations. The contributions are made to registered provident fund administered by the government. The obligation of the company is limited to the amount contributed and it has no further contractual nor any constructive obligation.

Company has the following contribution plans :

a) Employers’ Contribution to Provident Fund

b) Employers’ Contribution to Employee’s Pension Scheme, 1995

c) Employers’ Contribution to Superannuation Fund

During the year, the Company has incurred and recognised the following amounts in the Statement of Profit and Loss:

2) Defined Benefit Plan:

A) General Description of defined benefit plans i) Gratuity

The Company operates a gratuity plan wherein every employee is entitled to the benefit equivalent to fifteen days salary last drawn for each completed year of service depending on the date of joining. The same is payable on termination of service, retirement or death, whichever is earlier. The benefit vests after five years of continuous service in accordance with Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972. The Company has a defined benefit gratuity plan in India (funded).

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

The method and types of assumptions used in preparing the sensitivity analysis did not change compared to the prior period.

G. Risk Exposure

Through its defined benefit plans, the company is exposed to number of risks, the most important of which is asset volatility. The plan liabilities are calculated using a discount rate set with reference to bond yields: if plan assets underperform this yields, this will create a deficit. The plan assets are invested by the company in Insurer managed funds. The Company intends to maintain these investments in the continuing years.

3) Compensated absences

The Company has a policy on compensated absences which is applicable to its executives joined upto a specified period and all workers. The expected cost of accumulating compensated absences is determined by actuarial valuation performed by an independent actuary at each Balance Sheet date using projected unit credit method on the additional amount expected to be paid as a result of the unused entitlement that has accumulated at the Balance Sheet date.

Liability table as compensated absences is not a defined benefit plan.

Note 6 -Share based payments

The Company offers equity based award plan to its employees, officers through Company’s stock option plan. In respect of those options granted under the Gulf Oil Lubricants India Limited - Employees Stock Option Scheme - 2015, in accordance with the guidelines issued by Securities and Exchange Board of India [(Share Based Employees Benefits) Regulations, 2014], the fair value of options is accounted as deferred employee compensation, which is amortized on a straight - line basis over the vesting period.

The fair values were calculated using Black Scholes Model as permitted by the SEBI Guidelines and also Ind AS 102 issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India in respect of stock options granted. The inputs to the model include the share price on date of grant, exercise price, expected option life, expected volatility, expected dividends, expected terms and the risk free rate of interest.

The assumptions used in the calculations of the charge in respect of ESOP granted are set out below:

Note 7 -Financial risk management

The Company’s activities expose it to market risk, liquidity risk and credit risk. In order to minimise any adverse effects on the financial performance of the company, derivative financial instruments, such as foreign exchange forward contracts are entered to hedge certain foreign currency risk exposures. Derivatives are used exclusively for hedging purpose and not as trading or speculative instruments. This note explains the sources of risk which the company is exposed to and how the company manages the risk.

The Company’s risk management policies are established to identify and analyse the risks faced by the Company, to set and monitor appropriate risk limits and controls, periodically review the changes in market conditions and reflect the changes in the policy accordingly. The key risks and mitigating actions are also placed before the Audit Committee of the Company. The primary market risk to the Company is foreign exchange risk

A 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 comprise of two types of risk: foreign currency risk, interest risk, and commodity price risk. Financial instruments that are affected by market risk include deposits and foreign exchange forward contracts. The sensitivity analysis in the following sections relate to the position as at March 31, 2018, March 31, 2017 and April 01, 2016.

A1 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. The Company’s exposure to the risk of changes in foreign exchange rates relates primarily to the Company’s operating activities (primarily material costs are denominated in a foreign currency). The Company manages its foreign currency risk by hedging certain material costs that are expected to occur within a range of 2 to 4 months period for hedged purchases of base oil and additives. At March 31, 2018, March 31, 2017 and April 01, 2016 the Company hedged approximately ~ 60-65% of its expected foreign currency purchases for 2 to 4 months. This foreign currency risk is hedged by using foreign currency forward contracts. Details are as given below:

Sensitivity analysis

The Company is mainly exposed to changes in USD and Euro. The sensitivity analysis demonstrate as reasonably possible change in USD and Euro exchange rates with all other variables held constant. 5% appreciation/depreciation of USD and Euro with respect to functional currency of the company will have impact of the following (decrease)/increase in profit before tax.

A2 Interest rate risk

The Company had borrowed funds at floating interest rates. The Company’s interest rate risk arises from short term borrowings with variable rates The exposure of the company’s borrowing to interest rate changes at the end of the reporting period are as follows

A3 Commodity Price Risk

The Company’s exposure to market risk with respect to commodity prices primarily arises from the fact that we are a purchaser of base oil. This is a commodity product whose prices can fluctuate sharply over short periods of time. The prices of base oil generally fluctuate in line with commodity cycles. Material purchase forms the largest portion of our operating expenses. The Company evaluates and manages commodity price risk exposure through operating procedures and sourcing policies. The Company has not entered into any commodity derivative contracts. It may also be noted that there are no direct derivatives available for base oil, but there are derivatives for crude oil.

Sensitivity: 1% increase in commodity rates would have led to approximately an decrease in profit by Rs.34.00 lakhs (March 31, 2017 Rs.24.75 lakhs). 1% decrease in commodity rate would have led to an equal but opposite effect

B Credit Risk

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counter-party fails to meet its contractual obligations thus leading to a financial loss. The Company is exposed to credit risk from its operating activities (primarily trade receivables) and from its financial activities including deposits with bank, foreign exchange transactions and other financial instruments.

Trade Receivables

The Company’s customer mainly consists of its distributors and Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs). The Company has a credit policy, approved by the Management that is designed to ensure that consistent processes are in place to measure and control credit risk. The Company has trade relationships only with reputed third parties. The receivable balances are constantly monitored, resulting in an insignificant exposure of the Company to the risk of non-collectible receivables. Credit risk is managed through credit approvals, establishing credit limits, obtaining collaterals from the customers in the form of deposits and continuously monitoring the creditworthiness of customers to which the Company grants credit terms in the normal course of business. The maximum credit exposure associated with financial assets is equal to the carrying amount.

Concentrations of credit risk with respect to trade receivables are limited, due to the Company’s customer base being large and diverse. All trade receivables are reviewed and assessed for default on a quarterly basis. Our historical experience of collecting receivables, supported by the level of default, is that credit risk is low. Accordingly, our provision for expected credit loss on trade receivables is not material.

Reconciliation of provisions for doubtful debts has been provided as under

Other financial assets

The Company maintains exposure in cash and cash equivalents, term deposits with banks, investments in mutual funds. Individual risk limits are set for each counterparty based on financial position, credit rating and past experience. Credit limits and concentration of exposures are actively monitored by the Company’s Treasury department. The Company’s maximum exposure to credit risk as at March 31, 2018, March 31, 2017, and April 01, 2016 is the carrying value of each class of financial assets as disclosed in the financial statements.

C Liquidity Risk

The Company’s principal sources of liquidity are cash and cash equivalents and the cash flow that is generated from operations. The company has net positive cash surplus after adjusting its short term bank borrowings. Thus company believes that the working capital is sufficient to meet its current requirements and accordingly, there is no liquidity risk perceived.

Management monitors rolling forecasts of the liquidity position on the basis of expected cash flow. The company has access to the following undrawn borrowing facilities at the end of reporting period.

Note 8 -Fair Value Measurement

The carrying value and fair value of financial instruments by categories as on March 31, 2018, March 31,2017 and April 01, 2016 were as follows

The carrying amounts of trade receivables, trade payables and capital creditors are considered to be same as their fair value due to their short term nature. In case of non-current financial assets the difference between amortised cost and fair value is not significant and hence not disclosed.

Level 1

Level 1 hierarchy includes financial instruments measured using quoted prices. This includes listed equity instruments and mutual funds that have quoted price. The fair values of all equity instruments (including mutual funds) which are traded in the stock exchanges are valued using the closing price as at the reporting period.

Level 2

The fair values of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market (mainly derivative forward contracts) is determined using valuation techniques which maximise the use of observable market data and rely as little as possible on entity specific estimates. If all significant inputs required to fair value an instrument are observable, the instrument is included in level 2.

Level 3

If one or more of the significant inputs are not based on observable market data, the instrument is included in level 3. This is the case for unlisted equity securities, contingent consideration and indemnification asset in level 3.

i) Valuation technique used to determine fair value

Specific valuation technique used to value financial instruments include :

- the use of quoted market prices or dealer quotes for similar instruments

- the fair value if the remaining financial instruments is determined using discounted cash flow analysis.

ii) Fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3)

The Following table presents the changes in level 3 items as on March 31, 2018, March 31, 2017 and April 01, 2016

Note 9-Capital Management A Risk Management

For the purpose of the Company’s capital management, capital includes issued equity capital and all other equity reserves attributable to the equity holders. The primary objective of the Company is capital management is to maximise the shareholder value.

The Company monitors capital using a gearing ratio and is measured by net debt divided by total capital plus net debt. The Company’s net debt includes short term borrowings less cash and bank balances. The Company did not have any long term borrowings at any time during the year.

Note - 10First time adoption of Ind AS

These are the Company’s first financial statements prepared in accordance with Ind AS.

The accounting policies set out in note 2 have been applied in preparing the financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2018, the comparative information presented in these financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2017 and in the preparation of an opening Ind AS balance sheet as at April 1, 2016 (the Company’s date of transition). In preparing its opening Ind AS balance sheet, the Company has adjusted the amounts reported previously in the financial statements prepared in accordance with the accounting standards notified under Companies (Accounting Standards) Rules, 2006 (as amended) and other relevant provisions of the Act (Previous GAAP).

An explanation of how the transition from previous GAAP to Ind AS has affected the Company’s financial position, financial performance and cash flows is set out in the following tables and notes.

A. Exemptions and exceptions availed

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

I Deemed cost for property and equipment and intangible assets

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

II Designation of previously recognised financial instruments

Ind AS 101 allows an entity to designate investments in equity instruments at FVOCI on the basis of the facts and circumstances at the date of transition to Ind AS. The Company has elected to apply this exemption for its investment in equity investments of Gulf Ashley Motors Limited.

B. Mandatory exceptions

I Estimates

Under Ind AS 101, an entity’s estimates in accordance with Ind AS at ‘the date of transition to Ind AS’ or ‘the end of the comparative period presented in the entity’s first Ind AS financial statements’, as the case may be, should be consistent with estimates made for the same date in accordance with previous GAAP unless there is objective evidence that those estimates were in error. However, the estimates should be adjusted to reflect any differences in accounting policies.

Ind AS estimates as at April 01, 2016 are consistent with the estimates as at the same date made in conformity with previous GAAP. The Company made estimates for following items in accordance with Ind AS at the date transition as these were not required under previous GAAP:

(a) Investment in equity instruments carried at FVPL or FVOCI

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

II Classification and measurement of financial assets

Ind AS 101 provides exemptions to certain classification and measurement requirements of financial assets under Ind AS 109, where these are impracticable to implement and hence, classification and measurement needs to be done on the basis of facts and circumstances existing as on the transition date. Accordingly, the Company has determined the classification of financial assets based on facts and circumstances that exist on the transition date.

III Impairment of financial assets

Ind AS 101 requires an entity to use reasonable and supportable information that is available without undue cost or effort to determine the credit risk at the date that financial instruments were initially recognised and compare that to the credit risk at the date of transition to Ind AS.

IV De-recognition of financial assets and liabilities

Ind AS 101 requires a first-time adopter to apply the de-recognition provisions of Ind AS 109 prospectively for transactions occurring on or after the date of transition to Ind AS. However, Ind AS 101 allows a first time adopter to apply the de-recognition requirements in Ind AS 109 to financial assets and financial liabilities derecognised as a result of past transactions was obtained at the time of initially accounting for those transactions.

The company has elected to apply the de-recognition provisions of Ind AS 109 prospectively from the date of transition of Ind AS.

V Classification and measurement of financial assets

Ind AS 101 requires an entity to assess classification and measurement of financial assets (investment in debt instruments) on the basis of the facts and circumstances that exist at the date of transition to Ind AS.

C. Reconciliations between previous GAAP and Ind AS

Ind AS 101 requires reconciliations of its equity reported in accordance with previous GAAP to its equity in accordance with Ind AS, a reconciliation to its total comprehensive income and cash flow in accordance with Ind AS for the latest period in the entity’s most recent annual financial statements

Notes to first time adoption

Note 1: Fair valuation of investments

Under the previous GAAP, investments were classified as long-term investments or current investments based on the intended holding period and realisability. Long-term investments were carried at cost less provision for other than temporary decline in the value of such investments. Current investments were carried at lower of cost and fair value. Under Ind AS, these investments are required to be measured at fair value. Fair value changes with respect to investments in equity instruments designated as FVOCI have been recognised in FVOCI - Equity investments as at the date of transition and subsequently in the other comprehensive income for the year ended March 31, 2017. This increased FVOCI - Equity investments by Rs.55.63 lakhs as at March 31, 2017 (April 1, 2016 - Rs.30.78 lakhs).

Note 2: Proposed dividend

Under the previous GAAP, dividends proposed by the board of directors after the balance sheet date but before the approval of the financial statements were considered as adjusting events (upto March 31, 2016). Accordingly, provision for proposed dividend was recognised as a liability. Under Ind AS, such dividends are recognised when the same is approved by the shareholders in the general meeting. Accordingly, the liability for proposed dividend of Rs.2,386.57 lakhs as at April 01, 2016 included under provisions has been reversed with corresponding adjustment to retained earnings. Consequently, the total equity increased by an equivalent amount.

Note 3: Excise duty

“Under the previous GAAP, revenue from sale of products was presented exclusive of excise duty. Under Ind AS, revenue from sale of goods is presented inclusive of excise duty. The excise duty paid is presented as part of expenses. This change has resulted in an increase in total revenue and total expenses for the year ended March 31, 2017 by Rs.17,297.07 lakhs. There is no impact on the total equity and profit.

Note 4: Variable Consideration

Under previous GAAP, certain discounts and rebates paid to customers were recorded as part of expenses in the Statement of Profit and Loss. However, under Ind AS, these expenses are netted off against Revenue. This change has resulted in decrease in total revenue and total expenses for the year ended March 31, 2017 by Rs.4,426.40 lakhs. There is no impact on the total equity and profit.

Note 5: Re-measurements of post-employment benefit obligations

Under Ind AS, re-measurements i.e. actuarial gains and losses and the return on plan assets, excluding amounts included in the net interest expense on the net defined benefit liability are recognised in other comprehensive income instead of profit or loss. Under the previous GAAP, these re-measurements were forming part of the profit or loss for the year. As a result of this change, the profit for the year ended March 31, 2017 increased by Rs.34.44 lakhs . There is no impact on the total equity as at March 31, 2017.

Note 6: Employee stock option expense

Under the previous GAAP, the cost of equity-settled employee share-based plan were recognised using the intrinsic value method. Under Ind AS, the cost of equity settled share-based plan is recognised based on the fair value of the options as at the grant date. Consequently, the amount recognised in share option outstanding account increased by Rs.291.31 lakhs as at March 31, 2017 (April 01, 2016: Rs.298.12 lakhs). There is no impact on total equity. Also corresponding increase in employee based payment expense by Rs.291.31 lakhs for the year ended March 31, 2017 and Rs.298.12 lakhs for the year ended March 31, 2016.

Note 7: Financial instruments- derivatives

Under the previous GAAP, forward contracts were accounted for as prescribed under AS 11 “ The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates”, under which forward premium was amortised over the period of forward contract and forward contracts were restated at the closing spot exchange rate. Under Ind AS 109, all derivative financial instruments are to be marked to market and any resultant gain or loss is to be charged to the statement of profit and loss. Accordingly, the marked to market has been recognised and forward premium unamortised balance has been derecognised.

As a result of this adjustment, total equity as at March 31, 2017 decreased by Rs.5.72 lakhs (April 01, 2016 increased by Rs.121.85 lakhs). The profit for the year ended March 31, 2017 is lower by Rs.127.59 lakhs.

Note 8: Deferred tax

Deferred taxes impact of the above adjustments, wherever applicable have been recognised on transition to Ind AS.

Note 9: Retained Earning

Retained earnings as at April 1, 2016 has been adjusted consequent to the above Ind AS transition adjustments

Note 10: Other comprehensive income

Under Ind AS, all items of income and expense recognised in a period should be included in profit or loss for the period, unless a standard requires or permits otherwise. Items of income and expense that are not recognised in profit or loss but are shown in the statement of profit and loss as ‘other comprehensive income’ includes re-measurements of defined benefit plans, foreign exchange differences arising on translation of foreign operations or fair value gains/(losses) on FVOCI equity instruments. The concept of other comprehensive income did not exist under previous GAAP.

Note 11: Channel Financing Liabilities

The company offers its distributors a channel financing facility under which customer can discount bills drawn on them by the company using the company’s line of credit.
