A. Significant Accounting Policies and Key Accounting Estimates and Judgements 1. Significant Accounting Policies1.1 Statement of compliance

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS) notified under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 read with the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015.

1.2 Basis of Preparation and Compliance

The financial statements are prepared in accordance with the historical cost convention except for certain items that are measured at fair values at the end of each reporting period, as explained in the accounting policies set out below. The financial statements are prepared on a “going concern” basis using accrual concept except for the cash flow information.

Historical cost is generally based on fair value of the consideration given in exchange for goods and services.

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, regardless of whether that price is directly observable or estimated using another valuation technique. In estimating the fair value of an asset or a liability, the Company takes into account the characteristics of the asset or liability if market participants would take those characteristics into account when pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. Fair value for measurement and/or disclosure purposes in these financial statements is determined on such a basis and measurements that have some similarities to fair value but are not fair value, such as net realizable value in Ind AS-2 inventories or value in use in Ind AS 36 - Impairment of Assets.

In addition, for financial reporting purposes, fair value measurements are categorized into Level 1, 2 or 3 based on the degree to which the inputs to the fair value measurements are observable and the significance of the inputs to the fair value measurement in its entirety, as described hereunder:

Level 1 - Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date.

Level 2 - Other than quoted prices included within Level 1, that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

Transactions and balances with values below the rounding off norm adopted by the company have been reflected as “--“ in these financial statements.

1.3 Current / Non-Current Classification

An asset or liability is classified as current if it satisfies any of the following conditions:

(i) the asset / liability is expected to be realized / settled in the Company''s normal operating cycle;

(ii) the asset is intended for sale or consumption;

(iii) the asset / liability is held primarily for the purpose of trading;

(iv) the asset / liability is expected to be realized / settled within twelve months after the reporting period;

(v) the asset is cash or cash equivalent unless it is restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period;

(vi) in the case of a liability, the Company does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period.

All other assets and liabilities are classified as non-current.

For the purpose of current / non-current classification, the Company has reckoned its normal operating cycle as twelve months based on the nature of products and the time between the acquisition of assets or inventories for processing and their realization in cash and cash equivalents.

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

1.4 Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recent accounting pronouncements Ministry of Corporate Affairs (“MCA”) notifies new standards or amendments to the existing standards under Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules as issued from time to time. On March 31,2023, MCA amended the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Amendment Rules, 2023, and the major amendments are as below:

Ind AS 1 - Presentation of Financial Statements - This amendment requires the entities to disclose their material accounting policies rather than their significant accounting policies and also identify and eliminate immaterial accounting policies from the financial statements. The effective date for adoption of this amendment is annual periods beginning on or after April 1, 2023. The Company has evaluated the amendment and the impact of the amendment is insignificant in the standalone financial statements.

Ind AS 8 - Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors - This amendment has introduced a definition of ''accounting estimates'' which was absent and hitherto, and included amendments to Ind AS 8 to help entities distinguish changes in accounting policies from changes in accounting estimates. The effective date for adoption of this amendment is annual periods beginning on or after April 1, 2023. The Company has evaluated the amendment and there is no impact on its standalone financial statements.

Ind AS 12 - Income Taxes - This amendment has narrowed the scope of the initial recognition exemption so that it does not apply to transactions that give rise to equal and offsetting temporary differences. The effective date for adoption of this amendment is annual periods beginning on or after April 1, 2023. The Company has evaluated the amendment and there is no impact on its standalone financial statement.

1.5 Property, Plant and Equipment (PPE)

Property, plant and equipment are tangible items that:

(a) are held for use in the production or supply of goods or services, for rental to others, or for administrative purposes; and

(b) are expected to be used during more than one period.

The cost of an item of property, plant and equipment shall be recognized as an asset if, and only if:

(a) it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the entity; and

(b) the cost of the item can be measured reliably.

(i) An item of PPE that qualifies for recognition as an asset is measured on initial recognition at cost. Following initial recognition, PPEs are carried at its cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses.

(i) (a) For transition to Ind AS, the Company has elected to continue with the carrying value of all of

its PPE recognized as of April 1,2016 (transition date) measured as per the previous IGAAP as its deemed cost as on the transition date except land, which has been measured at fair value as deemed cost on the transition date.

(ii) The cost of an item of PPE comprises purchase price,taxes and duties net of input tax credit entitlement and other items directly attributable to the cost of bringing the asset to its working condition for its intended use. Trade discounts and rebates are deducted. Cost includes cost of replacing a part of a PPE if the recognition criteria are met. Expenses directly attributable to new manufacturing facility during its construction period are capitalized if the recognition criteria are met. Expenditure related to plans, designs and drawings of buildings or plant and machinery is capitalized under relevant heads of PPE if the recognition criteria are met.

(iii) The Company identifies and determines the cost of each part of an item of PPE separately, if the part has a cost which is significant to the total cost of that item of PPE and has useful life that is materially different from that of the remaining item.

(iv) Items such as spare parts, stand-by equipment and servicing equipment that meet the definition of PPE are capitalized at cost. Costs in nature of repairs and maintenance are recognized in the statement of Profit and Loss as and when incurred. All upgradation / enhancements are charged off as revenue expenditure unless they bring significant additional benefits. Borrowing Costs (net of interest earned on temporary investments of those borrowings) directly attributable to acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets are capitalized as part of the cost of the assets till the asset is ready for its intended use.

(v) Capital advances and capital work-in-progress

Advances given towards acquisition of fixed assets outstanding at each Balance Sheet date are disclosed as Other Non-Current Assets. Cost of assets not ready for intended use, as on the Balance Sheet date, is shown as capital work-in-progress. Such properties are classified to the appropriate categories of PPE when completed and ready for intended use. Depreciation on these assets commence when the assets are ready for their intended use.

(vi) Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost of assets (other than freehold land and properties under construction) less their residual values over their useful lives, using the straight-line method. The estimated useful lives and residual values are reviewed at the end of each reporting period and changes, if any, are treated as changes in accounting estimate.The useful lives are based on technical estimates and the management believes that the useful lives are realistic and fair approximation over the period of which the assets are likely to be used.

(vii) Estimated useful lives of the assets are as follows:

Asset

Years

Factory Buildings

30

Fences, Walls, Tube wells

5

Buildings (other than factory buildings)

10

Plant and Equipment - Silver Zinc Plant

15

Furniture and Fixtures

10

Vehicles (Secondhand vehicles Based on Kilometers run maximum 12 years)

15

Office Equipment

5

Assets costing Rs 5,000/- and below are depreciated in full within the Financial Year.

The useful lives are based on the technical estimates made by the management which in the opinion of the management are realistic and fair approximation over the period over which assets are likely to be used..

1.6 Intangible assets

a. Intangible assets acquired separately

Intangible assets with finite useful lives that are acquired separately are carried at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses. Amortization is recognized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. The estimated useful life is reviewed annually with the effect of any changes in estimate being accounted for on a prospective basis.

b. Useful lives of intangible assets

Intangible assets are amortized equally over the estimated useful life not exceeding five years. Estimated useful life of Computer Software is five years.

1.7 De-recognition of tangible and intangible assets

An item of tangible and intangible asset is de-recognized upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset. Any gain or loss arising on the disposal or retirement of an item of tangible and intangible assets is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds if any and the carrying amount of the asset and is recognized in the statement of profit or loss.

1.8 Impairment of tangible and intangible assets

The Company annually reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible and intangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). When it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Company estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. When a reasonable and consistent basis of allocation can be identified, corporate assets are also allocated to individual cash-generating units, or otherwise they are allocated to the smallest group of cash-generating units for which a reasonable and consistent allocation basis can be identified.

Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to Sell and value in use. 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 for which the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted.

If the recoverable amount of an asset (or cash-generating unit) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset (or cash-generating unit) is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognized immediately in profit or loss.

When an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset (or a cashgenerating unit) is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, so that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset (or cash-generating unit) in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognized immediately in profit or loss.

1.9 Revenue Recognition

Revenue from contract with customers

Effective from 1st April 2018, the company has applied IND AS-115- Revenue from contracts with customers.

a. Revenue Recognition

Revenue on sale of Goods is recognized at a point in time on transfer of control of the products to the customer in an amount that reflects the consideration the company expects to receive in exchange for those products pursuant to the contract with the Customer i.e Transaction price.

Transfer of control

Transfer of control happens

a) In respect of Aerospace, Naval and power system batteries on issue of Inspection Note by the customer and delivery to the common carrier and

b) In respect of Lead Acid Batteries when the goods are delivered to the common carrier. Development-cum-supply contracts

a) Revenue is recognized over a period of time based on output method and milestones achieved when the performance obligations in respect of the development work is distinct and independent from supply of goods.

b) Revenue is recognized over a period of time under the input method and milestones achieved where developmental work and the supplies are inter-related or inter-dependent.

c) When substantial portion of the developmental work has not been completed, the amount of expenditure incurred on the development work such as employees benefit expenses, materials and other direct expenses are carried forward as '' Work in progress''.

Significant financing component

Payment terms in Defense contracts are standardized and generally uniform across all customers. Typical payment terms are by way of advances, milestones achieved and 5%/10% payment on submission of BG or on the expiry of the warranty period.

The timing of the transfer of the goods is as specified by the customer in the contract. Advance from customers is for procuring specific materials having a long lead delivery time and specific to the products in nature and therefore the advances are not considered to have any significant financing component.

5% /10% payments are in the nature of retention towards performance warranty and do not carry any financing element and are moneys retained for reasons other than provision of finance. The retention moneys are payable on submission of bank guarantees and are classified as current.

Contract Assets (Included in Trade Receivables not due):

Contract Asset represents the company''s right to receive the consideration in exchange for the Goods or Services that the company has transferred to the customer, when the right is conditioned on something other than passage of time.

Materials receivable from the customer in respect of products already supplied as per the terms of the contract is recognized and is disclosed as non-financial assets - other current assets.

Contract liabilities - Cash Advance from Customers are disclosed under Current/Non Current based on the delivery period as per the contract as amended from time to time.

Advances in the form of materials from Customer are secured by Bank Guarantees and are netted off against the Inventory carried as the advance is to be adjusted by supply of products and is disclosed in the notes to accounts.

Impairment of Trade Receivables

Receivables from Government Departments are generally treated as fully recoverable based on past experience. However, in respect of other customers, impairment on account of expected credit loss is assessed on a case to case basis in respect of dues outstanding for a significant period of time.

b. Dividend and interest income

Dividend income from investments is recognised when the shareholder''s right to receive payment has been established (provided that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the company and the amount of income can be measured reliably).

Interest income from a financial asset is recognised when it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the company and the amount of income can be measured reliably. Interest income is accrued on a time basis, by reference to the principal outstanding and using effective interest rate method.

c. Insurance Claims

Insurance claims are recognized on the basis of claims admitted/expected to be admitted and to the extent that the amount recoverable can be measured reliably and it is reasonable to expect ultimate collection.

1.10 Government grants

Government grants are not recognised until there is reasonable assurance that the Company will comply with the conditions attached to them and that the grants will be received.

Grants are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss on a systematic basis over the period in which the Company recognises as expense the related costs which the grants are intended to compensate. Specifically, Government grants whose primary condition is that the Company should purchase, construct or otherwise acquire non-current assets are recognised as deferred revenue in the Balance Sheet and transferred to the Statement of Profit and Loss on a systematic and rational basis over the useful lives of the related assets.

Grants that are receivable as compensation for expenses or losses incurred or for the purpose of giving immediate financial support to the Company with no future related costs are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss in the period in which they become receivable.

Grants related to income are presented in the Statement of Profit and Loss as ''other income''. Grant receivable is disclosed under “Other Financial Assets”.

1.11 Inventories

Inventories are valued at lower of cost and net realizable value. Materials and other items intended for use in production of inventories are not written down below cost if the finished goods in which they will be incorporated are expected to be sold at or above cost. Cost includes taxes and duties, net of input tax credit entitlement. Cost of raw materials and components, stores and spares is determined on weighted average basis and includes inward freight and other direct expenses and Loose Tools are estimated to have useful life of three years and are charged to statement of profit and loss in equal installments over the useful life. Loose tools are carried at cost less amortization. Finished goods/Work-in-progress are valued at cost and cost includes material, direct labour, overheads (other than administrative overheads that do not contribute to bring the inventories to the present location and condition and selling costs) incurred in bringing the inventory to their present location and condition.

Net realizable value is the estimated selling price less estimated costs for completion and sale.

Obsolete, slow moving and defective inventories are periodically identified and provision is made where ever necessary.

1.12 Borrowing costs

Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets, which are assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use are added to the cost of those assets, until such time the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale. Interest income earned on the temporary investment of specific borrowings pending their expenditure on qualifying assets is deducted from the borrowing costs eligible for capitalization. All other borrowing costs are recognised in the Statement of profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred.

1.13 Employee Benefits

(a) Short term employee benefits

All employee benefits payable wholly within twelve months of rendering the service are classified as short term employee benefits and they are recognized in the period in which the employee renders the related service. The company recognizes the undiscounted amount of short term employee benefits expected to be paid in exchange for services rendered as a liability (accrued expense) after deducting any amount already paid.

(b) Post-employment benefits (i) Defined Contribution Plans

Contribution to Provident Fund (Defined Contribution Plan) as per the provisions of the Employees'' Provident Funds and Miscellaneous Provisions Act, 1952 is recognised as expense in the Statement of Profit and Loss and remitted to the Provident Fund Commissioner. The contribution to the Superannuation Fund (Defined Contribution Plan) is recognised as expense and funded with Life Insurance Corporation of India.

(ii) Defined Benefit Plans

The company operates the Defined Benefit Gratuity Plan for employees. The cost of providing defined benefits is determined using the Projected Unit Credit Method with actuarial valuations being carried out at each reporting date. The defined benefit obligations recognized in the Balance Sheet represent the present value of the defined benefit obligations as reduced by the fair value of plan assets, if applicable. Any defined benefit asset (negative defined benefit obligations resulting from this calculation) is recognized representing the present value of available refunds and reductions in future contributions to the plan.

All expenses represented by current service cost, past service cost, if any, and net interest on the defined benefit liability/(asset) are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss. Remeasurements of the net defined benefit liability/(asset) comprising actuarial gains and losses and the return on the plan assets (excluding amounts included in net interest on the net defined benefit liabilities/asset) are recognized in other comprehensive income and taken to retained earnings. Such re-measurements are not reclassified to the Statement of Profit and Loss in subsequent periods.

The entire liability towards gratuity is considered as current as the company is expected to contribute this amount to the gratuity fund within the next twelve months.

(c) Other Long-term Employee Benefits (Unfunded)

Entitlement to annual leave is recognized when they accrue to employees. Annual leave can be availed or encashed either during service or on retirement subject to a restriction on the maximum days of accumulation of leave. The company determines the liability for such accumulated leave using the Projected Unit Credit Method with actuarial valuation being carried out at each Balance Sheet date.

1.14 Provisions

Provisions are recognised when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that the Company 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. When a provision is measured using the cash flows estimated to settle the present obligation, its carrying amount is the present value of those cash flows (when the effect of the time value of money is material).

When some or all of the economic benefits required to settle a provision are expected to be recovered from a third party, a receivable is recognised as an asset if it is virtually certain that reimbursement will be received and the amount of the receivable can be measured reliably.

1.15 Financial instruments

A financial instrument is any contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one entity and a financial liability or equity instrument of another entity. Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the relevant instrument and are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities (other than financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss) are added to or deducted from the fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are recognised immediately in profit or loss. However Trade Receivables are recognized at Transaction Price.

1.16 Financial assets

All regular purchases or sales of financial assets are recognised and derecognised on a trade date basis. Regular way purchases or sales are purchases or sales of financial assets that require delivery of assets within the time frame established by regulation or convention in the marketplace.

All recognised financial assets are subsequently measured in their entirety at either amortized cost or fair value, depending on the classification of the financial assets. However, trade receivables are measured at transaction price.

a. Classification of financial assets

Debt instruments that meet the following conditions are subsequently measured at amortized cost. The debt instruments carried at amortised cost include Deposits, Loans and advances recoverable in cash.

• the asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets in order to collect contractual cash flows; and

• the contractual terms of the instrument give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

All other financial assets are subsequently measured at fair value.

b. Effective interest method (EIR)

The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortized cost of a debt instrument and of allocating interest income over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts (including all fees paid or received that form an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and other premiums or discounts) through the expected life of the debt instrument, or, where appropriate, a shorter period, to the net carrying amount on initial recognition.

Income is recognised on an effective interest basis for debt instruments other than those financial assets classified as FVTPL. Interest income is recognised in the Statement of profit or loss.

c. Investments in equity instruments at FVTOCI

The company has irrevocably designated to carry investment in equity instruments at Fair value through other comprehensive income. On initial recognition, the Company can make an irrevocable election (on an instrument-by-instrument basis) to present the subsequent changes

in fair value in other comprehensive income pertaining to investments in equity instruments. This election is not permitted if the equity investment is held for trading. These elected investments are initially measured at fair value plus transaction costs. Subsequently, they are measured at fair value with gains and losses arising from changes in fair value recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in the ''Reserve for equity instruments through other comprehensive income''. On derecognition of such Financial Assets, cumulative gain or loss previously reported in OCI is not reclassified from Equity to statement of Profit and Loss. However, the company may transfer such cumulative gain or loss into retained earnings within equity.

The Company has equity investments which are not held for trading. The Company has elected the FVTOCI irrevocable option for these investments (see note 3). Fair value is determined in the manner described in note 1.2.

Dividends on these investments in equity instruments are recognised in the statement of profit or loss when the Company''s right to receive same is established, it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the dividend will flow to the company, the dividend does not represent a recovery of part of cost of the investment and the amount of dividend can be measured reliably.

d. Impairment of Financial Assets

In accordance with Ind AS 109, the Company uses “Expected Credit Loss” (ECL) model, for evaluating impairment of financial assets other than those measured at fair value through profit and loss (FVTPL).

Expected credit losses are measured through a loss allowance at an amount equal to:

• The 12 months expected credit losses (expected credit losses that result from those default events on the financial instrument that are possible within 12 months after the reporting date); or

• Full lifetime expected credit losses (expected credit losses that result from all possible defaults events over the life of the financial instrument).

For trade receivable, Company applies ''simplified approach'' which requires expected/ lifetime losses to be recognized from initial recognition of the receivables.

For other assets, the Company uses 12 months ECL to provide for impairment loss where there is no significant increase in credit risk, if there is significant increase in credit risk full lifetime ECL is used.

e. De-recognition of Financial Assets:

The Company derecognizes a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire or it transfers the financial asset and the transfer qualifies for derecognition under Ind AS 109. A financial liability (or a part of a financial liability) is derecognized when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged or cancelled or expires.

Concomitantly, if the asset is one that is measured at

(a) Amortised cost, the gain or loss is recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

(b) Fair value through other comprehensive income, the cumulative fair value adjustments previously taken to reserves are reclassified to the Statement of Profit and Loss unless the asset represents an equity investment in which case the cumulative fair value adjustments previously taken to reserves is reclassified within equity.

1.17 Financial liabilities and equity instruments

a. Classification as debt or equity

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.

b. Equity instruments

An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of an entity after deducting all of its liabilities. Equity instruments issued by a company are recognised at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs.

c. Financial liabilities

All financial liabilities are initially recognized at the value of respective contractual obligations. Financial liabilities that are not held-for-trading and are not designated as at FVTPL are measured at amortized cost at the end of subsequent accounting periods. The carrying amounts of financial liabilities that are subsequently measured at amortized cost are determined based on the effective interest method. Interest expense that is not capitalized as part of costs of an asset is included in the ''Finance costs'' line item.

d. Derecognition of financial liabilities

A financial liability is derecognized when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires. When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as the Derecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability. The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability derecognized and the consideration paid is recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

1.18 Foreign Currency Transactionsa. Initial Recognition

On initial recognition, transactions in foreign currencies are recorded in the functional currency (i.e. Indian Rupees), by applying to the foreign currency amount the spot exchange rate between the functional currency and the foreign currency at the date of the transaction.

b. Measurement of foreign currency items at reporting date

Foreign currency monetary items are translated at the closing exchange rates. Non-monetary items that are measured at historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction. Non-monetary items that are measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value is measured.

c. Recognition of exchange difference

Exchange differences arising on the settlement of monetary items or on translating monetary items at rates different from those at which they were translated on initial recognition during the period or in previous financial statements is recognized in profit or loss in the period in which they arise.

1.19 Cash Flow Statement

Cash flows are reported using the indirect method, whereby profit / (loss) before tax is adjusted for the effects of transactions of non-cash nature and any deferrals or accruals of past or future cash receipts or payments. The cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities of the Company are segregated based on the available information.

1.20 Taxes on Income

Taxes on income comprise of current tax and deferred tax.

a. Current tax

Current tax is the amount of income taxes payable in respect of taxable profit for a period. Taxable profit differs from ''profit before tax'' as reported in the statement of Profit and Loss because of items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and items that are never taxable or deductible under the Income Tax Act, 1961.

Current tax is measured using tax rates and tax laws enacted during the reporting period together with any adjustment to tax in payable in respect of previous years.

b. Deferred tax

Deferred tax is recognized on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit under Income Tax Act, 1961.

Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for all taxable temporary differences. However, in case of temporary differences that arise from initial recognition of assets or liabilities in a transaction that affect neither the accounting profit nor the taxable profit, deferred tax liabilities are not recognized.

Deferred tax assets are recognized for all deductible temporary differences to the extent it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary difference can be utilized. In case of temporary differences that arise from initial recognition of assets or liabilities in a transaction that affect neither the taxable profit nor the accounting profit, deferred tax assets are not recognized.

Deferred Tax Assets in respect of tax carry forward of unused tax losses and unused tax credits are recognised to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the unused tax losses and unused tax credits can be utilised.

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow the benefits of part or all of such deferred tax assets to be utilized.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that have been enacted by the Balance Sheet date and are expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.

c. Current and deferred tax for the year

Current and deferred tax are recognised in the Statement of profit or loss, except when they relate to items that are recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case, the current and deferred tax are also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity respectively.

1.21 Events after reporting period

Where events occurring after the Balance Sheet date provide evidence of conditions that existed at the end of the reporting period, the impact of such events is adjusted within the financial statements. Otherwise, events after the Balance Sheet date of material size of nature are only disclosed.

1.22 Operating Segments

Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with internal reporting provided to the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) of the company. The CODM is responsible for allocating resource and assessing performance of the operating segments of the company. The Managing Director is identified as the CODM.

Segment accounting policies are in line with the accounting policies of the company.In addition, the specific accounting policies have been followed for segment reporting as under:

The Company has identified two business segments viz.1. Aerospace, Naval and Power System Batteries and 2. Lead Acid Batteries. Revenue and expenses have been identified to respective segments on the basis of operating activities of the enterprise. Revenue and expenses which relate to the enterprise as awhole and are not allocable to a segment on a reasonable basis have been disclosed as unallocable revenue and expenses.

Segment assets and liabilities represent assets and liabilities in respective segments. Other assets and liabilities that cannot be allocated to a segment on a reasonable basis have been disclosed as unallocable assets and liabilities.

Inter segment revenue / expenditure - Not Applicable.

Geographical segment - Not Applicable.

1.23 Earnings Per Share (EPS)

Basic EPS is calculated by dividing the profit or loss attributable to equity shareholders by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is determined by adjusting the profit or loss attributable to equity shareholders and the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding for the effects of all dilutive potential equity shares.

Key Accounting estimates and judgments 1.1 Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with IndAS requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of the accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities

at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the year. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

1.2 Key sources of estimation uncertainty

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

Key assumption concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the end of the reporting period that may have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year is as given below.

a. Fair value measurement and valuation processes

Some of the Company''s assets and liabilities are measured at fair value for financial reporting purposes. In estimating the fair value of an asset or a liability, the Company uses market-observable data to the extent it is available. Where Level 1 inputs are not available, the Company engages third party qualified valuers to perform the valuation. The management works closely with the qualified external valuers to establish the appropriate valuation techniques and inputs to the model.

b. Useful life of Property, Plant and Equipments

The Company reviews the estimated useful life of Property, Plant and equipment at the end of each reporting period. During the current year, there has been no change in useful life considered for the assets.

c. Actuarial valuation

The determination of Company''s liability towards defined benefit obligation to employees is made through independent actuarial valuation including determination of amounts to be recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss and in other comprehensive income. Such valuation depend upon assumptions determined after taking into account inflation, seniority, promotion and other relevant factors such as supply and demand factors in the employment market. Information about such valuation is provided in notes to the financial statements.

d. Impairment loss

Impairment loss is recognized based on an independent valuation and cost to sell which are estimates.

e. Claims, Provisions and Contingent Liabilities

The Company has ongoing litigations with various tax and regulatory authorities and third parties. Where an outflow of funds is believed to be probable and a reliable estimate of the outcome of the dispute can be made based on management''s assessment of specific circumstances of each dispute and relevant external advice, management provides for its best estimate of the liability. Such accruals are by nature complex and can take number of years to resolve and can involve estimation uncertainty. Information about such litigations is provided in notes to the financial statements.

A. Significant Accounting Policies and Key Accounting Estimates and Judgements

1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

1.1 Statement of compliance

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS) notified under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 read with the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules. 2015.

Up to the year ended 31st March, 2017. the Company prepared its financial statements in accordance with the requirements of Indian Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (IGAAP) that includes Standards notified under the Companies (Accounting Standards) Rules. 2006. ''

These are the Company''s first Ind AS financial statements. The date of transition to Ind AS is 01,04,2016. Please refer Note No. 1.19 for the details of exceptions and optional exemptions availed by the company and principal adjustments along with related reconciliations.

1.2 Basis of Preparation and Compliance

The financial statements are prepared in accordance with the historical cost convention except for certain items that are measured at fair values at the end of each reporting period, as explained in the accounting policies see out below. The financial statements are prepared on a going concern" basis using accrual concept except for the cash flow information.

Historical cost is generally based on fair value of the consideration given in exchange for goods and services.

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, regardless of what her that price is directly observable or estimated using another valuation technique. In estimating the fair value of an asset or a liability, the Company lakes into account the characteristics of the asset or liability if market participants would take those characteristics into account when pinking the asset or liability at the measurement date. Fair value for measurement and/or disclosure purposes in these financial statements is determined on such a basis and measurements that have some similarities to fair value but are not fair value, such as net realizable value in Ind AS-2 inventories or value in use in Ind AS 36 — Impairment of Assets.

In addition, for financial reporting purposes, fair value measurements are categorized into Level 1,2, or 3 based on the degree to which the inputs to the fair value measurements are observable and the significance of the inputs to the fair value measurement in its entirely, as described hereunder

Level 1 - Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement; date.

Level 2 - Other than quoted prices included within Level 1. that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

Transactions and balances with values below the rounding off norm adopted by The company have been reflected as "—" in these financial statements.

1.3 Current / Non-Current Classification

An asset or liability is classified as current If it satisfies any of the following conditions:

(ii) the asset / liability is expected to be realized / settled in the Company’s normal operating cycle;

(ii) the asset is intended for sale or consumption;

(mi) the asset! liability Is held primarily for the purpose of trading;

(iv) the asset / liability is expected to be realized / settled within twelve months after the reporting period;

(v) the asset is cash or cash equivalent unless it is restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period;

(vi) In the case of a liability, the Company does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period.

All other assets and liabilities are classified as non-current.

For the purpose of current I non-current classification, the Company has reckoned its normal operating cycle as twelve months based on the nature of products and the time between the acquisition of assets or inventories for processing and their realization in cash and cash equivalents.

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

1.4 Property, Plant and Equipment (PPE)

Property, plant and equipment are tangible items that:

(a) are held for use in the production or supply of goods or services, for rental to others, or for administrative purposes; and

(b) are expected lo bequest during more than one period.

The cost of an item of property, plant and equipment shall be recognised as an asset if. and only if:

(a) it is probable that nature economic benefits associated With the item will flow to the entity; and

(b) the cost of the item can be measured reliably.

(I) An item of PPE that qualifies for recognition as an asset is measured on initial recognition at cost. Following initial recognition. PPEs are carried at its cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses.

(i)(a) For transition to Ind AS. the Company has elected to continue with the carrying value of all of its PPE recognized as of April 1. 2016 (transition date) measured as per the previous I GAAP as its deemed cost as on the transition date except land, which has been measured at fair value as deemed cost on the transition date.

(ii) The cost of an item of PPE comprises purchase price, taxes and duties net of input tax credit entitlement and other items directly attributable to the cost of bringing the asset to its working condition for its intended use. Trade discounts and rebates are deducted. Cost includes cost of replacing a part of a PPE if the recognition criteria are met. Expenses directly attributable to new manufacturing facility during its construction period are capitalized if the recognition criteria are met. Expenditure related to plans, designs and drawings of buildings or plant and machinery is capitalized under relevant heads of PPE if the recognition criteria are met.

(iii) The Company identifies and determines the cost of each part of an item of PPE separately, if the part has a cost which Is significant to The total cost of that item of PPE and has useful life I hat is materially different from that of The remaining item.

(iii) Items such as spare parts, stand-by equipment and servicing equipment that meet the definition to PPE are capitalized at cost. Costs in nature of repairs and maintenance are recognized in the statement of Profit and Loss as and when incurred. All up gradation / enhancements are charged off as revenue expenditure unless they bring significant additional benefits. Borrowing Costs (net of interest earned on temporary investments of those borrowings) directly attributable to acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets are capitalized as part of the cost of the assets till the asset is ready for its intended use.

(v) Capital advances and capital work- in- progress

Advances given towards acquisition of fixed assets outstanding at each Balance Sheet date are disclosed as Other Non-Current Assets. Cost of assets not ready for intended use. as on the Balance Sheet date, is shown as capital work- in- progress. Such properties are classified to the appropriate categories of PPE when completed and ready for intended use. Depreciation on these assets commences when the assets are ready for their intended use which is generally on commissioning.

(vi) Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost of assets (other than freehold land and properties under construction) less their residual values over their useful lives, using the straight-line method. The estimated useful lives and residual values are reviewed at the end of each reporting period and changes, if any. are treated as changes in accounting estimate. The useful lives are based on technical estimates and the management believes that the useful lives are realistic and fair approximation over the period at which the assets are likely to be used.

Assess costing Rs 5,000/- and below are depreciated in full within the Financial Year.

The useful lives are based on the technical estimates made by the management which in the opinion of the management are realistic and fair approximation over the period over which assets are likely to be used.

1.5 Intangible assets

a. Intangible assets acquired separately

Intangible assets with finite useful lives that are acquired separately are earned at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses. Amortization is recognized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. The estimated useful life is reviewed annually with the effect of any changes in estimate being accounted for on a prospective basis.

b. Useful lives of intangible assets

Intangible assets are amortized equally over the estimated useful life.

1.6 De-recognition of tangible and Intangible assets

An item of tangible and intangible asset is de-recognized upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset. Any gain or loss arising on the disposal or retirement of an item of tangible and intangible assets is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds if any and the carrying amount of The asset and is recognized in the statement of profit or loss.

1.7 impairment of tangible and intangible assets

The Company annually reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible and intangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated In order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). When it is not passible ta estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Company estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. When a reasonable and consistent basis of allocation can be identified, corporate assets are a Isa allocated to individual cash-gene rating units, or otherwise I hey are allocated to the smallest group of cash-gen ©rating units for which a reasonable and consistent allocation basis can be identified.

Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs of disposal and value in use. 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 for which the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted.

If the recoverable amount of an asset (or cash-generating unit) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset (or cash-generating unit) is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognized immediately in profit or loss.

When an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset (or a cash-generating unit) is increased |o the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, so that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset (or cash-generating unit) in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognized Immediately in profit or loss.

1.8 Revenue Recognition

Revenue Is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for supply of goods or services net of returns.

a. Sale of products

Revenue from safe of products is recognized when the Company transfers alf significant risks and rewards of ownership to the buyer, and retains neither continuing managerial Involvement nor effective control o^/er the products sold. It is mainly upon delivery and the amount of revenue can be measured reliably and recovery of the consideration is probable.

b. Dividend and interest income

Dividend income from investments is recognised when the shareholder''s right to receive payment has been established (provided that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the company and the amount al income can be measured reliably interest income from a financial asset is recognised when it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to The company and the amount of income can be measured reliably. Interest income is accrued on a time basis, by reference to the principal outstanding and using effective interest rate method. ''

c. Insurance Claims

Insurance claims are recognized on the basis of claims admitted f expected to be admitted and to the extent that the amount recoverable can be measured reliably and it. is reasonable to expect ultimate collection.

1.9 Ind AS 115 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers

The standard is notified on 28.03.2018 and it is applicable for the accounting periods commencing on or alter 01-04.2018. Accordingly, this standard is not applicable for preparation of the financial statements for the year ended 31.03.2018. However, application of this standard from 01,04.2010 is not likely lo have any impact in the revenue recognition of the company.

1.10 Inventories

Inventories are valued at lower ol cost and net realizable value. Materials and other items intended for use in production of inventories are not written down below cost if the finished goods in which I hey will be incorporated are expected to be sold at or above cost. Cost includes taxes and duties, net of input tax credit entitlement. Cost of raw materials, consumables, stores and spares is determined on weighted average basis and includes inward height and other direct expenses. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price less estimated costs for completion and sale.

Obsolete, slow moving and defective inventories are periodically identified and provision is made where necessary.

1.11 Borrowing costs

Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets, which are assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use are added to the cost of those assets, until such time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale. Interest income earned on the temporary investment of specific borrowings pending their expenditure on qualifying assets is deducted from the borrowing costs eligible for capitalization, All other borrowing costs are recognised in the Statement of profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred.

1.12 Employee Benefits

Short term employee

All employee benefits payable wholly within twelve months of rendering the service are classified as short term employee benefits and they are recognized in the period in which the employee renders the related service. The company recognizes the undiscounted amount of short term employee benefits expected to be paid in exchange for services rendered as a liability (accrued expense) after deducting any amount already paid.

The contribution to the Superannuation Fund (Defined Contribution Plan) is recognised as expense and funded with Life Insurance Corporation of India.

(ii) Defined Benefit Plans

The company operates the Defined Benefit Gratuity Plan for employees. The cost of providing defined benefits is determined using the Projected Unit Credit Method with actuarial valuations being carried out at each reporting date. The defined benefit obligations recognized in the Balance Sheet represent the present value of the defined benefit obligations as reduced by The fair value of pain assets, if applicable. Any defined benefit asset (negative declined benefit obligations resulting from this calculation) is recognized representing the present value of available refunds and reductions in future contributions to The plan,

All expenses represented by current service cost, past service cost, if any, and net interest on the defined benefit liability/ (asset) are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss, Remeasuremenls of The net defined benefit liability/(asset) comprising actuarial gains and losses and the return on the plan assets (excluding amounts included in net interest on the net defined benefit liabilities/ asset) are recognized in other comprehensive income and taken to retained earnings. Such re-measurements are not reclassified to the Statement of Profit and Loss in subsequent periods.

The entire liability towards gratuity is considered as current as the company will contribute this amount to the gratuity fund within the next twelve months,

(c) Other Long-term Employee Benefits (Unfunded)

Entitlement to annual leave is recognized when I hey accrue to employees. Annual leave can be availed or encased either during service or on retirement subject to a restriction on the maximum number of accumulation ol leave.

1.13 Provisions

Provisions are recognised when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that the Company will be required to settle the obligation on 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. When a provision is measured using the cash flows estimated to settle the present obligation, its carrying amount is the present value of those cash flows (when the effect of the time value of money is material).

When some or all of the economic benefits required to settle a provision are expected to be recovered from a third party, a receivable is recognised as an asset if it is virtually certain that reimbursement will be received and the amount of the receivable can be measured reliably.

1.14 Financial instruments

A financial in strum an no is any contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one entity and a financial liability or equity instrument of another entity. Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the relevant instrument and are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities (other than financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or Joss) are added to or deducted from the lair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are recognised immediately in profit or loss.

1.15 Financial assets

All regular way purchases or sales of financial assets are recognised and derecognised on a trade date basis. Regular way purchases or sales are purchases or sales of financial assets that require delivery of assets within the time frame established by regulation or convention in the marketplace.

All recognised financial assets are subsequently measured in their entirety at either amortized cost or fair value, depending on the classification of the financial assets,

a. Classification of financial assets

Debt instruments that meet the following conditions are subsequently measured at amortized cost. The debt instruments carried at amortised cost include Deposits. Loans and advances recoverable in cash.

The asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets in order to collect contractual cash flows; and

The contractual terms of |he instrument give rise on specified dales lo cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

All other financial assets are subsequently measured at fair value.

b. Effective interest method [EIR)

The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortized cost of a debt instrument and of allocating interest income over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts (including all fees paid or received that form an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and other premiums or discounts) through the expected life of the debt instrument, or.

where appropriate, a shorter period, to the net carrying amount on initial recognition.

Income is recognised on an effective interest basis for debt instruments other than those financial assets classified as FVTPL. Interest income is recognised in the Statement of profit or loss.

c. Investments in equity instruments at FVTOCI

The company has irrevocably designated to carry investment in equity instruments at Fair value through other comprehensive income. On initial recognition, the Company can make an irrevocable election (on an instrument-by-instrument basis) to present the subsequent changes in fair value in other comprehensive income pertaining to investments in equity instruments. This election is not permitted if the equity investment is held for trading. These elected investments are initially measured at fair value plus transaction costs. Subsequently, they are measured at fair value with gains and losses arising from coinages in fair value recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in the ''Reserve for equity instruments through other comprehensive income''. On recognition of such Financial Assets, cumulative gain or loss previously reported in OCI is not reclassified from Equity to statement of Profit and Loss. However, the company may transfer such cumulative gain or loss into retained earnings within equity.

The Company has equity investments which are not held for trading. The Company has elected the FVTOCI irrevocable option for these investments (see note 3). Farr value is determined in the manner described in note 1.2.

Dividends on these investments in equity instruments are recognised in the statement of profit or loss when the Company''s right to receive same is established, it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the dividend will flow to the company, the dividend does not represent a recovery of part of cost of the investment and the amount of dividend can be measured reliably.

d. Impairment of Financial Assets

In accordance with Ind AS 103. the Company uses ^Expected Credit Loss (ECL) model, for evaluating impairment of financial assets other than those measured a| fair value through profit and loss (FVTPL).

Expected credit losses are measured through a loss allowance at an amount equal to:

The 12 months expected credit losses (expected credit losses that result from those default events on the financial instrument that are possible within 12 months after the reporting date or

Felt lifetime expected credit losses (expected credit losses that result from alt possible defaults events over the life of the financial instrument).

For trade receivable. Company applies ''simplified approach'' which requires expected life lime tosses to be recognized from initial recognition of the receivables.

For other assets, The Company uses 12 months ECL to provide for impairment loss where thane is no significant increase in credit risk, if there is significant increase in credit risk full lifetime ECL is used.

e. De-recognition of Financial Assets:

The Company derecognizes a I i nan dal asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire or if transfers the financial asset and the transfer qualifies for de-recognition under Ind AS 109, A financial liability (or a part of a financial liability) is derecognized when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged or cancelled or expires

Concomitantly, if the asset is one that is measured at:

(a) Amortised cost, the gain or loss is recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

(b) Fair value through other comprehensive income, the cumulative fair value adjustments previously taken to reserves are reclassified to the Statement of Profit and Loss unless the asset represents an equity investment in which case the cumulative fair value adjustments previously taken to reserves is reclassified within equity-

1.16 Financial liabilities and equity instruments

a. Classification as debt or equity

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.

Financial liabilities that are not held-for-trading and are not designated as at FVI PL are measured at amortized cost at the end of subsequent accounting periods, The carrying amounts of financial liabilities that are subsequently measured at amortized cost are determined based on the effective interest method. Interest expense that is not capitalized as part of costs of an asset is included in the ''Finance costs'' line item,

d. Derecognition of financial liabilities

A financial liability is derecognized when the obligation under (he liability is discharged or cancelled or expires, When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as the Derecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability, The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability derecognized and the consideration paid is recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

1.17 Foreign Currency Transactions a. Initial Recognition

On initial recognition, transactions in foreign currencies are recorded in the functional currency (i.e. Indian Rupees), by applying to the foreign currency amount the spot exchange rate between the functional currency and the foreign currency at the date of the transaction.

Measurement of foreign currency items at reporting date

Foreign currency monetary items are translated at the closing exchange rates. Nonmonetary items that are measured at historical cost in a foreign currency, are translated using the exchange rule at the date of the transaction. Non-monetary items that are measured at fair value in a foreign currency, are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the lair value is measured.

c, Recognition of exchange difference

However, this principle is subject to the certain exceptions and certain optional exemptions availed by the Company as detailed below,

b. Materiality

The company has applied the standards only to items / transactions which are material.

c. Classification of debt instruments

The Company has determined the classification of debt instruments in terms of whether they meet the amortized cost criteria or the FVTOCI criteria based on the facts and circumstances that existed as of the transition date.

d. Impairment of financial assets

The Company has applied the impairment requirements of Ind AS 109 retrospectively: however, as permitted by Ind A5 101, it has used 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 in order to compare it with the credit risk at the transition date. Further, the Company has not undertaken an exhaustive search for information when determining, at the date of transition to Ind ASs, whether there have been significant increases in credit risk since initial recognition, as permitted by Ind AS 101. The Company has determined the classification of debt instruments in terms of whether they meet the amortized cost criteria or the FVTOCI criteria based on the facts and circumstances that existed as of the transition date.

e. Deemed cost for property, plant and equipment

The Company has elected to continue with the carrying value of all of its property, plant and equipment recognised as of 1« April, 2016 (transition date) measured as per the previous IGAAP and use that carrying value as its deemed cost as of The transition date except land, which has been measured at fair value as deemed cost as on the transition date.

f. Business Combinations

The company has elected not to apply Ind AS -103 Business Combinations retrospectively for past business combinations.

1.20 Taxes on income

Taxes on income comprise of current tax and deferred tax.

a. Current tax

Current tax is the amount of income taxes payable in respect of taxable profit for a period. Taxable profit differs from profit before tax'' as reported in the statement of Profit and Loss because of items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and items that are never taxable or deductible under the Income Tax Act, 1961.

Current tax is measured using tax rates and lax laws enacted during the reporting period together with any adjustment to tax in payable m respect of previous years.

b. Deferred tax

Deferred tax is recognized on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding fax bases used in the computation of taxable profit under income Tax Act, 1961.

Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for all taxable temporary differences. However, in case of temporary differences that arise from initial recognition of assets or liabilities in a Transaction that affect neither the accounting profit nor the taxable profit, deferred tax liabilities are not recognized.

Deferred tax assets are recognized for all deductible temporary differences to the extent it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary difference can be utilized. In case of temporary differences that arise from initial recognition ol assets or liabilities in a transaction that affect neither the taxable profit nor the accounting profit, deferred tax assets are not recognized.

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at The end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow the benefits of part or all of such deferred tax assets to be utilized.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that have been enacted by the Balance Sheet date and are expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.

MAT Credit Entitlement are in the form of unused tax credits and are accordingly grouped under Deferred Tax Assets.

c. Current and deferred tax for the year

Current and deferred tax are recognised in the Statement of profit or loss, except when they relate to items that are recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case, the current and deferred tax are also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity respectively.

1.21 Events after reporting period

Revenue and expenses which relate to the enterprise as a whole and are not allocable to a segment on a reasonable basis have been disclosed as unallowable revenue and expenses. Segment assets and liabilities represent assets and liabilities in respective segments. Other assets and liabilities that cannot be allocated to a segment on a reasonable basis have been disclosed as unallowable assets and liabilities.

Inter segment revenue i expenditure - Mot Applicable.

Geographical segment - No! Applicable.

1.23 Earnings per Share (EPS)

Basic EPS is calculated by dividing the profit or loss attributable to equity shareholders by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is determined by adjusting the profit or loss attributable to equity shareholders and the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding for the effects of all dilutive potential equity shares.

B. Key Accounting estimates and judgments

1.1 Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Ind AS requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of the accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the year. Actual results could differ From those estimates.

1.2 Key sources of estimation uncertainty

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an on-going basis. Revisions lo accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if The revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

Key assumption concerning the future, and other key sources of estimation uncertainty al the end of the reporting period that may have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year is as given below.

a. Fair value measurement and valuation processes

Some of the Company''s assets and liabilities are measured at fair value for financial reporting purposes. In estimating the fair value of an asset or a liability, the Company uses market-observable data to the extent it is available. Where Level 1 inputs are not available, the Company engages Third party qualified values to perform the valuation. The management works closely with the qualified external values to establish the appropriate valuation techniques and inputs to the model.

b. Useful life of Property Plant and Equipment’s

The Company reviews the estimated useful lives of Property, plant and equipment at the end of each reporting period. During the current year, there has been no change in us etui life considered for the assets.

c. Actuarial valuation

The determination of Company''s liability towards defined benefit obligation to employees is made through independent actuarial valuation including determination of amounts to be recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss and in other comprehensive income.

Information about such valuation is provided in notes to the financial statements.

d. Claims, Provisions and Contingent Liabilities

The Company has on-going obligations with various tax and regulatory authorities and third parties. Where an outflow of funds is believed to be probable and a reliable estimable of the outcome of the dispute can he made based on management’s assessment of specific circumstances of each dispute and relevant external advice, management provides for its best estimate ol the liability. Such accruals are by nature complex and can take number of years to resolve and can involve estimation uncertainly, information about such litigations is provided in notes to the financial statements.
