Notes to Accounts of Honeywell Automation India Ltd.

Mar 31, 2023

B. Contract balances

Progress on satisfying performance obligations under contracts with customers and the related billings and cash collections are recorded in accounts receivable and the unbilled receivables in Other Financial Assets. The customer advances are recorded as Other Current Liabilities. Unbilled receivables (Contract Assets) arise when the timing of cash collected from customers differs from the timing of revenue recognition, such as when contract provisions require specific milestones to be met before a customer can be billed. Those assets are recognized when the revenue associated with the contract is recognized prior to billing and derecognized when billed in accordance with the terms of the contract. Contract liabilities are recorded when a milestone is met triggering the contractual right to bill but revenue recognised over time is not recognized.

When contracts are modified to account for changes in contract specifications and requirements, the Company considers whether the modification either creates new or changes the existing enforceable rights and obligations. Contract modifications that are for goods or services that are not distinct from the existing contract, due to the significant integration with the original good or service provided, are accounted for as if they were part of that existing contract. The effect of a contract modification on the transaction price and the measure of progress for the performance obligation to which it relates, is recognized as an adjustment to revenue (either as an increase in or a reduction of revenue) on a cumulative catch-up basis. When the modifications include additional performance obligations that are distinct, they are accounted for as a new contract and performance obligation, which are recognized prospectively.

C. Performance obligation

A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer. A contract’s transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when, or as, the performance obligation is satisfied. When contracts with customers require highly complex integration or manufacturing services that are not separately identifiable from other promises in the contracts and, therefore, not distinct, then the entire contract is accounted for as a single performance obligation. Performance obligations are satisfied as of a point in time or over time. Performance obligations are supported by contracts with customers, providing a framework for the nature of the distinct goods, services or bundle of goods and services. The timing of satisfying the performance obligation is typically indicated by the terms of the contract.

Typical payment terms of fixed-price over time contracts include progress payments based on specified events or milestones, or based on project progress. For some contracts the Company may be entitled to receive an advance payment. The Company provides standard warranty on its products and records obligation on the same based on past trend.

The Company has applied the practical expedient for certain revenue streams to exclude the value of remaining performance obligations for contracts with an original expected term of one year or less. Performance obligations recognized as at the year end will be satisfied over the course of future periods. The disclosure of the timing for satisfying the performance obligation is based on the requirements of contracts with customers. Remaining performance obligation estimates are subject to change and are affected by several factors, including terminations, changes in the scope of contracts and periodic revalidations.

Note 28 - Segment information

Information reported to the Chief operating decision maker (CODM) for the purposes of resource allocation and assessment of segment performance focuses only on one business segment i.e. Automation & Control Systems. There are no other reportable segments.

The Company generates a large percentage of its sales and profits from its business with the Honeywell group (Honeywell), its major shareholder. Sales to Honeywell group accounted for approximately 40% and 32% of our total net sales for the year ended March 31, 2023 and year ended March 31, 2022 respectively. The Company’s ability to maintain or grow its business with Honeywell depends upon a number of performance factors. However, the Company cannot be assured that its level of sales and profits associated with its relationship with Honeywell will continue. Honeywell-specific business considerations (independent of its shareholding in the Company), including changes in Honeywell’s strategies regarding utilization of alternate opportunities available to it to source products and services currently provided by the Company (including from alternate sources which Honeywell may acquire or develop within its own group), may also reduce the level and/or mix of Honeywell’s business with the Company.

The Company has compiled this information based on intimations received from suppliers of their status as Micro or Small enterprises and / or its registration with the appropriate authority under Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises Development Act, 2006 (as amended from time to time).

Note 33 - Share Based Payments Employee share option plan of the company

Honeywell International Inc. (HII), the ultimate holding company, may grant stock options and restricted stock awards to certain employees under its stock incentive plan.

Stock Options—The exercise price, term and other conditions applicable to each option granted under the stock plans are generally determined by the Management Development and Compensation Committee of the Board of Honeywell International Inc. The exercise price of stock options is set on the grant date and may not be less than the fair market value per share of the stock on that date. The fair value is recognized as an expense over the employee’s requisite service period (generally the vesting period of the award). Options generally vest over a four-year period and expire after ten years.

Restricted Stock Units—Restricted stock unit (RSU) awards entitle the holder to receive one share of common stock for each unit when the units vest. RSUs are issued to certain employees as compensation at fair market value at the date of grant. RSUs typically become fully vested over periods ranging from three to seven years and are payable in Honeywell common stock upon vesting.

Fair value of share options granted in the year

The fair value of each stock option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. Expected volatility is based on implied volatilities from traded options on common stock of HII and historical volatility of common stock of HII. Monte Carlo simulation model is used to derive an expected term which represents an estimate of the time options are expected to remain outstanding. Such model uses historical data to estimate option exercise activity and post-vest termination behaviour. The risk-free rate for periods within the contractual life of the option is based on the U.S. treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant.

2 - The assumptions used in preparing the sensitivity analysis is Discount rate at 100bps and - 100 bps

Salary escalation rate at 100 bps and -100 bps

3 - The method used to calculate the liability in these scenarios is by keeping all the other parameters and the data same as in the base liability calculation except for the parameters to be stressed.

4 - There is no change in the method from the previous period and the points/percentage by which the assumptions are stressed are same as that in the previous year.

A note on other risks

investment risk- The funds are invested with an external insurer (LIC of India). The insurer manages the Gratuity Fund and provides quarterly interest returns. Considering LIC is a state insurer with a sovereign guarantee and no history of defaults the investment risk is not significant.

interest Risk - The Gratuity fund managed by an external insurer (LIC of India) is in the form of cash accumulation scheme with interest rates declared annually - A significant fall in interest (discount) rates may not be offset by an increase in value of Gratuity Fund, hence may pose an interest rate risk.

Longevity Risk - Since Gratuity is paid at retirement in form of lump sum and also during service at the time of termination to vested members, longevity risk is not applicable since maximum duration for benefit is till retirement age

Salary Risk- The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated by reference to the future salaries of plan participants. As such, an increase in the salary of the plan participants will increase the plan’s liability.

Contract balances

Progress on satisfying performance obligations under contracts with customers and the related billings and cash collections are recorded in accounts receivable and the unbilled receivables (Contract Assets) in Other Financial Assets. The customer advances are recorded as Other Current Liabilities. Unbilled receivables (Contract Assets) arise when the timing of cash collected from customers differs from the timing of revenue recognition, such as when contract provisions require specific milestones to be met before a customer can be billed. Those assets are recognized when the revenue associated with the contract is recognized prior to billing and derecognized when billed in accordance with the terms of the contract. Contract liabilities are recorded when a milestone is met triggering the contractual right to bill but revenue recognised over time is not recognized.

When contracts are modified to account for changes in contract specifications and requirements, the Company considers whether the modification either creates new or changes the existing enforceable rights and obligations. Contract modifications that are for goods or services that are not distinct from the existing contract, due to the significant integration with the original good or service provided, are accounted for as if they were part of that existing contract. The effect of a contract modification on the transaction price and the measure of progress for the performance obligation to which it relates, is recognized as an adjustment to revenue (either as an increase in or a reduction of revenue) on a cumulative catch-up basis. When the modifications include additional performance obligations that are distinct, they are accounted for as a new contract and performance obligation, which are recognized prospectively.

Performance obligation

A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer. A contract’s transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when, or as, the performance obligation is satisfied. When contracts with customers require highly complex integration or manufacturing services that are not separately identifiable from other promises in the contracts and, therefore, not distinct, then the entire contract is accounted for as a single performance obligation. Performance obligations are satisfied as of a point in time or over time. Performance obligations are supported by contracts with customers, providing a framework for the nature of the distinct goods, services or bundle of goods and services. The timing of satisfying the performance obligation is typically indicated by the terms of the contract. Typical payment terms of fixed-price over time contracts include progress payments based on specified events or milestones, or based on project progress. For some contracts the Company may be entitled to receive an advance payment. The Company provides standard warranty on its products and records obligation on the same based on past trend.

The Company has applied the practical expedient for certain revenue streams to exclude the value of remaining performance obligations for contracts with an original expected term of one year or less. Performance obligations recognized as at the year end will be satisfied over the course of future periods. The disclosure of the timing for satisfying the performance obligation is based on the requirements of contracts with customers. Remaining performance obligation estimates are subject to change and are affected by several factors, including terminations, changes in the scope of contracts and periodic revalidations.

The Company has evaluated the impact of COVID - 19 resulting from possibility of constraints to complete performance obligations within contracts with customers which may require revision of estimations of costs to complete the contract because of additional efforts, onerous obligations, liquidated damages and penalties within the terms of contract, termination or deferment of contracts by customers, invoking of force-majeure clause, etc. The Company has concluded that the impact of COVID - 19 is not material based on these estimates. Due to the nature of the pandemic, the Company will continue to monitor developments to identify significant uncertainties relating to revenue in future periods.

Information reported to the Chief operating decision maker (CODM) for the purposes of resource allocation and assessment of segment performance focuses only on one business segment i.e. Automation & Control Systems. There are no other reportable segments.

The Company generates a large percentage of its sales and profits from its business with the Honeywell group (Honeywell), its major shareholder. Sales to Honeywell group accounted for approximately 37% and 38% of our total net sales for the year ended March 31, 2021 and year ended March 31, 2020 respectively. The Company’s ability to maintain or grow its business with Honeywell depends upon a number of performance factors. However, the Company cannot be assured that its level of sales and profits associated with its relationship with Honeywell will continue. Honeywell-specific business considerations (independent of its shareholding in the Company), including changes in Honeywell’s strategies regarding utilization of alternate opportunities available to it to source products and services currently provided by the Company (including from alternate sources which Honeywell may acquire or develop within its own group), may also reduce the level and/or mix of Honeywell’s business with the Company.

The Company has compiled this information based on intimations received from suppliers of their status as Micro or Small enterprises and / or its registration with the appropriate authority under Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises Development Act, 2006 (as amended from time to time).

NOTE 33 - Share Based Payments Employee share option plan of the company

Honeywell International Inc. (HII), the ultimate holding company, may grant stock options and restricted stock awards to certain employees under its stock incentive plan.

Stock Options—The exercise price, term and other conditions applicable to each option granted under the stock plans are generally determined by the Management Development and Compensation Committee of the Board of Honeywell International Inc. The exercise price of stock options is set on the grant date and may not be less than the fair market value per share of the stock on that date. The fair value is recognized as an expense over the employee’s requisite service period (generally the vesting period of the award). Options generally vest over a four-year period and expire after ten years.

Restricted Stock Units—Restricted stock unit (RSU) awards entitle the holder to receive one share of common stock for each unit when the units vest. RSUs are issued to certain employees as compensation at fair market value at the date of grant. RSUs typically become fully vested over periods ranging from three to seven years and are payable in Honeywell common stock upon vesting.

Fair value of share options granted in the year

The fair value of each stock option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. Expected volatility is based on implied volatilities from traded options on common stock of HII and historical volatility of common stock of HII. Monte Carlo simulation model is used to derive an expected term which represents an estimate of the time options are expected to remain outstanding. Such model uses historical data to estimate option exercise activity and post-vest termination behavior. The risk-free rate for periods within the contractual life of the option is based on the U.S. treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant.

Note: It is not practicable for the Company to estimate the timing of cash outflow, if any, in respect of the above pending resolutions of the respective proceedings.

As at March 31, 2021, Contingent liability majorly represent demands arising on completion of assessment proceedings under the Income-tax Act, 1961 and other indirect tax act including excise, custom and sales tax.

These claims are on account of various issues of disallowances, or addition in liability by tax liabilities related to various issues including C- forms, WCT TDS etc.

These matters are pending before various appellate authorities and the Management including its tax advisors expect that its position will likely be upheld on ultimate resolution and will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position and results of operations.

Third party claims against company not acknowledged as debts includes ongoing cases pending in commercial court/ Arbitral Tribunal in relation to claims/ counter claims raised by few vendors/ customers and HAIL for certain commercial teams disagreements.

Estimated amount of contracts remaining to be executed on capital accounts and not provided for (net of advances) - Rs. 461 (‘lakhs) [31st March 2020 Rs. 2,705 (‘lakhs)]

A Litigations/ disputes mainly include:

a) Provision for disputed statutory matters comprises matters under litigation with Sales Tax and Local authorities.

b) The amount of provision made by the Company is based on the estimate made by the Management considering the facts and circumstances of each case.

To the extent the Company is confident that it may have a strong case that portion is disclosed under contingent liabilities.

c) The timing and the amount of cash flows that will arise from these matters will be determined when the matters are settled with respective Appellate Authorities.

B Warranty

Provision for warranty is considered based on the rolling average warranty expense incurred in the preceding 12 months, the warranty period for which ranges from 12 months to 24 months as per provisions of the contracts.

C Provision for Estimated Cost to complete on Contracts

A provision for estimated cost to complete on construction contracts is recognized when it is probable that the total contract cost will exceed total contract revenue. The provision shall be utilized as and when the contract gets executed.

Defined benefit plans (gratuity and other retirement benefits)

The Company also provides for gratuity, covering eligible employees in accordance with the Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972. The Gratuity Plan provides a lump sum payment to vested employees at retirement, death, incapacitation or termination of employment, of an amount based on the respective employee’s salary and the tenure of employment.

Provident Fund contributions are made to a Trust administered by the Company for its qualifying employees. This defined benefit plans is administered by separate trust that is legally separated from the entity. The board of the trust is required by law and by its trust deed to act in the interest of the fund and of all the relevant stakeholders in the scheme; i.e. active employees, inactive employees, retirees, employers. The board of the fund is responsible for the investment policy with regard to the assets of the fund.

A significant part of the plan assets are classified as Level 2 where the fair value is determined basis the observable inputs either directly or indirectly. This fair value factors the uncertainties arising out of COVID-19. The financial assets carried at fair value by the trust are mainly investments in Government securities, public and private sector bonds and mutual funds.

Sensitivity Analysis

Sensitivity analysis indicates the influence of a reasonable change in certain significant assumptions on the outcome of the Present value of obligation (PVO) and aids in understanding the uncertainty of reported amounts.

1. Sensitivity analysis for each significant actuarial assumptions viz. Discount rate and Salary escalation rate as of the end of the reporting period, showing how the defined benefit obligation would have been affected by changes is called out in the table above.

2 The assumptions used in preparing the sensitivity analysis is Discount rate at 100bps and - 100 bps Salary escalation rate at 100 bps and -100 bps

3 The method used to calculate the liability in these scenarios is by keeping all the other parameters and the data same as in the base liability calculation except for the parameters to be stressed.

4 There is no change in the method from the previous period and the points/percentage by which the assumptions are stressed are same as that in the previous year.

A note on other risks

Investment risk- The funds are invested with an external insurer (LIC of India). The insurer manages the Gratuity Fund and provides quarterly interest returns. Considering LIC is a state insurer with a sovereign guarantee and no history of defaults the investment risk is not significant.

Interest Risk - The Gratuity fund managed by an external insurer (LIC of India) is in the form of cash accumulation scheme with interest rates declared annually - A significant fall in interest (discount) rates may not be offset by an increase in value of Gratuity Fund, hence may pose an interest rate risk.

Company is exposed to foreign exchange risk on account of import risk and hedging activities; and export transactions which is monitored periodically. The Company leverages the global treasury operations of Honeywell to improve mitigation of risk relating to foreign exchange.

Foreign currency risk management

The Company undertakes transactions denominated in foreign currencies; consequently, exposures to exchange rate fluctuations arise. The carrying amounts of the Company’s foreign currency denominated monetary assets and monetary liabilities at the end of the reporting period are as follows:

Foreign currency exchange rate risk:

The fluctuation in foreign currency exchange rates may have potential impact on the income statement and equity, where any transaction references more than one currency or where assets/liabilities are denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of the Company. Considering the countries and economic environment in which the Company operates, its operation are subject to risks arising from fluctuations in exchange rates in those countries. The risk primarily relate to U.S. Dollars against the functional currency of Honeywell Automation India Limited.

The Company, as per its Hedging policy, uses forward contracts to hedge foreign exchange exposure. The Company evaluates the impact of foreign exchange rate fluctuations by assessing its exposure to exchange rate risks. It hedges a part of these risks by using forward contracts in accordance with its risk management policies.

The Company uses forward exchange contracts to hedge its exposure in foreign currency. The information on derivative

Credit risk refers to the risks that a counterparty may default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the Company. The Company deals only with credit worthy counterparties and takes appropriate measures to mitigate the risk of financial loss from defaults. Trade receivable consists of a large number of customers, spread across diverse industries and geographical areas. Ongoing credit evaluation is performed on the financial condition of accounts receivable.

Liquidity risk management

The Company manages liquidity risk by maintaining adequate reserves, banking facility and by continuously monitoring forecasts and actual cash flows and by matching the maturity profiles of financial assets and liabilities. The Company’s principal sources of liquidity are cash and cash equivalents and the cash flow that is generated from operations. The Company has no outstanding borrowings. The Company believes that the working capital is sufficient to meet its current requirements.

NOTE 38

As set out in section 135 of the Companies Act, 2013 the Company is required to contribute/ spend Rs. 1071 lakhs towards Corporate Social Responsibility activities, as calculated basis 2% of its average net profits of the last three financial years.

(i) change in the immediate holding company of the Company, and

(ii) an inter se transfer of 6,631,142 equity shares aggregating to 75.00% of the shareholding of the Company, from HAPI to HAIL Mauritius. Honeywell International Inc. continues to be the ultimate holding company.

A. Contract balances

Progress on satisfying performance obligations under contracts with customers and the related billings and cash collections are recorded in accounts receivable and the unbilled receivables (Contract Assets) in Other Financial Assets. The customer advances are recorded as Other Current Liabilities. Unbilled receivables (Contract Assets) arise when the timing of cash collected from customers differs from the timing of revenue recognition, such as when contract provisions require specific milestones to be met before a customer can be billed. Those assets are recognized when the revenue associated with the contract is recognized prior to billing and derecognized when billed in accordance with the terms of the contract. Contract liabilities are recorded when a milestone is met triggering the contractual right to bill but revenue recognised over time is not recognized.

When contracts are modified to account for changes in contract specifications and requirements, the Company considers whether the modification either creates new or changes the existing enforceable rights and obligations. Contract modifications that are for goods or services that are not distinct from the existing contract, due to the significant integration with the original good or service provided, are accounted for as if they were part of that existing contract. The effect of a contract modification on the transaction price and the measure of progress for the performance obligation to which it relates, is recognized as an adjustment to revenue (either as an increase in or a reduction of revenue) on a cumulative catch-up basis. When the modifications include additional performance obligations that are distinct, they are accounted for as a new contract and performance obligation, which are recognized prospectively.

The net change was primarily driven by the increase in recognition of revenue as performance obligations were satisfied exceeding milestone billings.

B. Performance obligation

A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer. A contract’s transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when, or as, the performance obligation is satisfied. When contracts with customers require highly complex integration or manufacturing services that are not separately identifiable from other promises in the contracts and, therefore, not distinct, then the entire contract is accounted for as a single performance obligation. Performance obligations are satisfied as of a point in time or over time. Performance obligations are supported by contracts with customers, providing a framework for the nature of the distinct goods, services or bundle of goods and services. The timing of satisfying the performance obligation is typically indicated by the terms of the contract. Typical payment terms of fixed-price over time contracts include progress payments based on specified events or milestones, or based on project progress. For some contracts the Company may be entitled to receive an advance payment. The Company provides standard warranty on its products and records obligation on the same based on past trend.

The Company has applied the practical expedient for certain revenue streams to exclude the value of remaining performance obligations for contracts with an original expected term of one year or less. Performance obligations recognized as of March 31, 2019 will be satisfied over the course of future periods. The disclosure of the timing for satisfying the performance obligation is based on the requirements of contracts with customers. Remaining performance obligation estimates are subject to change and are affected by several factors, including terminations, changes in the scope of contracts and periodic revalidations.

Sensitivity Analysis

Sensitivity analysis indicates the influence of a reasonable change in certain significant assumptions on the outcome of the Present value of obligation (PVO) and aids in understanding the uncertainty of reported amounts.

1 Sensitivity analysis for each significant actuarial assumptions viz. Discount rate and Salary escalation rate as of the end of the reporting period, showing how the defined benefit obligation would have been affected by changes is called out in the table above.

2 The assumptions used in preparing the sensitivity analysis is Discount rate at 100bps and - 100 bps

Salary escalation rate at 100 bps and -100 bps

3 The method used to calculate the liability in these scenarios is by keeping all the other parameters and the data same as in the base liability calculation except for the parameters to be stressed.

4 There is no change in the method from the previous period and the points/percentage by which the assumptions are stressed are same as that in the previous year.

Impact of change in discount rate when base assumption is decreased/increased by 100 basis point

In presenting the above sensitivity analysis, the present value of the defined benefit obligations has been calculated using Projected Unit Credit method at the end of the reporting period, which is the same as that applied in calculating the defined benefit obligation liability recognised in the Balance sheet.

The overall expected rate of return on assets is based on the expectation of the average long term rate of return expected on investments of the Fund during the estimated term of the obligations.

A note on other risks

Investment risk: The funds are invested with an external insurer (LIC of India). The insurer manages the Gratuity Fund and provides quarterly interest returns. Considering LIC is a state insurer with a sovereign guarantee and no history of defaults the investment risk is not significant.

Interest Risk: The Gratuity fund managed by an external insurer (LIC of India) is in the form of cash accumulation scheme with interest rates declared annually - A significant fall in interest (discount) rates may not be offset by an increase in value of Gratuity Fund, hence may pose an interest rate risk.

Longevity Risk: Since Gratuity is paid at retirement in form of lump sum and also during service at the time of termination to vested members, longevity risk is not applicable since maximum duration for benefit is till retirement age

Salary Risk: The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated by reference to the future salaries of plan participants. As such, an increase in the salary of the plan participants will increase the plan’s liability.

Financial risk management objectives

Company is exposed to foreign exchange risk on account of import risk and hedging activities; and export transactions which is monitored periodically. The Company leverages the global treasury operations of Honeywell to improve mitigation of risk relating to foreign exchange.

Foreign currency risk management

The risk primarily relate to U.S. Dollars against the functional currency of Honeywell Automation India Limited.

The Company, as per its Hedging policy, uses forward contracts to hedge foreign exchange exposure. The Company evaluates the impact of foreign exchange rate fluctuations by assessing its exposure to exchange rate risks. It hedges a part of these risks by using forward contracts in accordance with its risk management policies.

NOTE 1 - CRITICAL JUDGEMENTS, ESTIMATIONS AND ASSUMPTIONS IN APPLYING ACCOUNTING POLICIES

In the application of the Company''s accounting policies, which are described in note 3, the directors of the company are required to make judgments estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revision to accounting estimates are recognized 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.

The following are the key assumptions 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.

1. The preparation of financial statements involves estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets, liabilities, disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses for the reporting period. Specifically, the Company estimates the probability of collection of accounts receivable by analyzing historical payment patterns, customer concentrations, customer creditworthiness and current economic trends. If the financial condition of a customer deteriorates, additional allowances may be required.

2. The company uses the percentage-of-completion method in accounting for its contract revenue. Use of the percentage-of-completion method requires the company to estimate the efforts or costs expended to date as a proportion of the total efforts or costs to be expended. Efforts or costs expended have been used to measure progress towards completion as there is a direct relationship between input and productivity. Provisions for estimated losses, if any, on uncompleted contracts are recorded in the period in which such losses become probable based on the expected contract estimates at the reporting date.

3. The stock compensation expense is determined based on the Company’s estimate of equity instruments that will eventually vest.

4. Provision for warranty is considered based on the rolling average warranty expense incurred in the preceding 12 months, the warranty period for which ranges from 12 months to 24 months as per provisions of the contracts.

5. In case of Property, plant and equipment, The charge in respect of periodic depreciation is derived after determining an estimate of an asset’s expected useful life and the expected residual value at the end of its life. The useful lives and residual values of company''s assets are determined by management at the time the asset is acquired and reviewed periodically, including at each financial year end. The lives are based on historical experience with similar assets as well as anticipation of future events, which may impact their life, such as changes in technology.

Mr. Ashish Gaikwad, Managing Director [Appointed w.e.f. October 1, 2016]

Mr. Anurag Bhagania, CFO [Resigned w.e.f. June 26, 2016 (close of business hours)]

Mr. R Ravichandran, CFO [Appointed w.e.f. June 27, 2016]

Ms. Sangeet Hunjan, Company Secretary [Resigned w.e.f. November 24, 2016 (close of business hours)]

Ms. Farah Irani, Company Secretary [Appointed w.e.f. May 16, 2017]

The Company generates a large percentage of its sales and profits from its business with the Honeywell group (Honeywell), its major shareholder. Sales to Honeywell group accounted for approximately 37% and 39% of our total net sales for the year ended March 31, 2018 and year ended March 31, 2017 respectively. The Company’s ability to maintain or grow its business with Honeywell depends upon a number of performance factors. However, the Company cannot be assured that its level of sales and profits associated with its relationship with Honeywell will continue. Honeywell-specific business considerations (independent of its shareholding in the Company), including changes in Honeywell’s strategies regarding utilization of alternate opportunities available to it to source products and services currently provided by the Company (including from alternate sources which Honeywell may acquire or develop within its own group), may also reduce the level and/or mix of Honeywell’s business with the Company.

As a Lessee in Operating Lease

Rentals for office premises, land, building under operating leases of Rs. 2,255 (''lakhs) [Previous period Rs. 2,252 (''lakhs)] have been included under Rent Expense.

NOTE 3 - SHARE BASED PAYMENTS Employee share option plan of the company

Honeywell International Inc (HII), the ultimate holding company, may grant stock options and restricted stock awards to certain employees under its stock incentive plan.

Stock Options—The exercise price, term and other conditions applicable to each option granted under the stock plans are generally determined by the Management Development and Compensation Committee of the Board of Honeywell International Inc. The exercise price of stock options is set on the grant date and may not be less than the fair market value per share of our stock on that date. The fair value is recognized as an expense over the employee’s requisite service period (generally the vesting period of the award). Options generally vest over a four-year period and expire after ten years.

Restricted Stock Units—Restricted stock unit (RSU) awards entitle the holder to receive one share of common stock for each unit when the units vest. RSUs are issued to certain employees as compensation at fair market value at the date of grant. RSUs typically become fully vested over periods ranging from three to seven years and are payable in Honeywell common stock upon vesting.

Fair value of share options granted in the year

The fair value of each stock option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. Expected volatility is based on implied volatilities from traded options on common stock of HII and historical volatility of common stock of HII. Monte Carlo simulation model is used to derive an expected term which represents an estimate of the time options are expected to remain outstanding. Such model uses historical data to estimate option exercise activity and post-vest termination behavior. The risk-free rate for periods within the contractual life of the option is based on the U.S. treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant.

A Disputed statutory matters mainly include:

a) Provision for disputed statutory matters comprises matters under litigation with Sales Tax and Local authorities.

b) The amount of provision made by the Company is based on the estimate made by the Management considering the facts and circumstances of each case.

To the extent the Company is confident that it may have a strong case that portion is disclosed under contingent liabilities.

c) The timing and the amount of cash flows that will arise from these matters will be determined by the Appellate Authorities only on settlement of these cases.

B Warranty

Provision for warranty is considered based on the rolling average warranty expense incurred in the preceding 12 months, the warranty period for which ranges from 12 months to 24 months as per provisions of the contracts.

C Provision for Estimated Cost to complete on Contracts

A provision for estimated cost to complete on construction contracts is recognized when it is probable that the total contract cost will exceed total contract revenue. The provision shall be utilized as and when the contract gets executed.

B Defined benefit plans (gratuity and other retirement benefits)

The Company also provides for gratuity, covering eligible employees in accordance with the Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972. The Gratuity Plan provides a lump sum payment to vested employees at retirement, death, incapacitation or termination of employment, of an amount based on the respective employee’s salary and the tenure of employment.

Provident Fund contributions are made to a Trust administered by the Company for its qualifying employees. This defined benefit plans is administered by separate trust that is legally separated from the entity. The board of the trust is required by law and by its trust deed to act in the interest of the fund and of all the relevant stakeholders in the scheme; i.e. active employees, inactive employees, retirees, employers. The board of the fund is responsible for the investment policy with regard to the assets of the fund.

The current service cost and the net interest expenses for the year are included in ''Employee benefits expense'' in the statement of profit and loss.

The remeasurement of the net defined benefit liability is included in other comprehensive income.

Note - There is a net surplus position in PF valuation and however as per the PF trust act, no surplus can be transferred to the company as it is separate from the company, the company would not be accounting for any amount in its books in this position.

Sensitivity Analysis

Sensitivity analysis indicates the influence of a reasonable change in certain significant assumptions on the outcome of the Present value of obligation (PVO) and aids in understanding the uncertainty of reported amounts.

1. Sensitivity analysis for each significant actuarial assumptions viz. Discount rate and Salary escalation rate as of the end of the reporting period, showing how the defined benefit obligation would have been affected by changes is called out in the table above.

2. The assumptions used in preparing the sensitivity analysis is Discount rate at 100bps and - 100 bps

Salary escalation rate at 100 bps and -100 bps

3. The method used to calculate the liability in these scenarios is by keeping all the other parameters and the data same as in the base liability calculation except for the parameters to be stressed .

4. There is no change in the method from the previous period and the points/percentage by which the assumptions are stressed are same as that in the previous year.

In presenting the above sensitivity analysis, the present value of the defined benefit obligations has been calculated using Projected Unit Credit method at the end of the reporting period, which is the same as that applied in calculating the defined benefit obligation liability recognied in the Balance sheet.

A note on other risks

Investment risk: The funds are invested with an external insurer (LIC of India). The insurer manages the Gratuity Fund and provides quarterly interest returns. Considering LIC is a state insurer with a sovereign guarantee and no history of defaults the investment risk is not significant.

Interest Risk: The Gratuity fund managed by an external insurer (LIC of India) is in the form of cash accumulation scheme with interest rates declared annually - A significant fall in interest (discount) rates may not be offset by an increase in value of Gratuity Fund, hence may pose an interest rate risk.

Longevity Risk: Since Gratuity is paid at retirement in form of lump sum and also during service at the time of termination to vested members, longevity risk is not applicable since maximum duration for benefit is till retirement age.

Salary Risk: The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated by reference to the future salaries of plan participants. As such, an increase in the salary of the plan participants will increase the plan''s liability.

Notes to the financial statements Financial risk management objectives

Company is exposed to foreign exchange risk on account of import risk and hedging activities; and export transactions which is monitored periodically. The Company leverages the global treasury operations of Honeywell to improve mitigation of risk relating to foreign exchange.

Foreign currency exchange rate risk:

The fluctuation in foreign currency exchange rates may have potential impact on the income statement and equity, where any transaction references more than one currency or where assets/liabilities are denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of the company. Considering the countries and economic environment in which the company operates, its operation are subject to risks arising from fluctuations in exchange rates in those countries. The risk primarily relate to U.S. Dollars against the functional currency of Honeywell Automation India Limited.

Notes to the financial statements Credit risk management

Credit risk refers to the risks that a counterparty may default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the Company. The Company deals only with credit worthy counterparties and takes appropriate measures to mitigate the risk of financial loss from defaults. Trade receivable consists of a large number of customers, spread across diverse industries and geographical areas. Ongoing credit evaluation is performed on the financial condition of accounts receivable.

Liquidity risk management

The Company manages liquidity risk by maintaining adequate reserves, banking facility and by continuously monitoring forecasts and actual cash flows and by matching the maturity profiles of financial assets and liabilities.

NOTE 4

As set out in section 135 of the Companies Act, 2013 the Company is required to contribute / spent Rs. 469 lakhs towards Corporate Social Responsibility activities, as calculated basis 2% of its average net profits of the last three financial years. Accordingly, during the current year, the Company has spent Rs. 469 lakhs (previous year Rs. 348 lakhs including Rs.9 lakhs toward administration cost).

NOTE 5

NOTE 1 - CRITICAL JUDGEMENTS, ESTIMATIONS AND ASSUMPTIONS IN APPLYING ACCOUNTING POLICIES

In the application of the Company’s accounting policies, which are described in note 3, the directors of the company is required to make judgments estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revision to accounting estimates are recognized 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.

The following are the key assumptions 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.

1. The preparation of financial statements involves estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets, liabilities, disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses for the reporting period. Specifically, the Company estimates the probability of collection of accounts receivable by analyzing historical payment patterns, customer concentrations, customer credit-worthiness and current economic trends. If the financial condition of a customer deteriorates, additional allowances may be required.

2. The company uses the percentage-of-completion method in accounting for its contract revenue. Use of the percentage-of-completion method requires the company to estimate the efforts or costs expended to date as a proportion of the total efforts or costs to be expended. Efforts or costs expended have been used to measure progress towards completion as there is a direct relationship between input and productivity. Provisions for estimated losses, if any, on uncompleted contracts are recorded in the period in which such losses become probable based on the expected contract estimates at the reporting date.

3. The stock compensation expense is determined based on the Company’s estimate of equity instruments that will eventually vest.

4. Items included in the financial statements of the Company are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which this entity operate (i.e. the “functional currency”). The financial statements are presented in Indian Rupee, the national currency of India, which is the functional currency of the Company.

5. Provision for warranty is considered based on the rolling average warranty expense incurred in the preceding 12 months, the warranty period for which ranges from 12 months to 24 months as per provisions of the contracts.

6. In case of Property, plant and equipment, The charge in respect of periodic depreciation is derived after determining an estimate of an asset’s expected useful life and the expected residual value at the end of its life. The useful lives and residual values of company’s assets are determined by management at the time the asset is acquired and reviewed periodically, including at each financial year end. The lives are based on historical experience with similar assets as well as anticipation of future events, which may impact their life, such as changes in technology.

NOTE 2 - FIRST-TIME IND-AS ADOPTION RECONCILIATIONS

The company has prepared the opening balance sheet as per Ind AS as of April 1, 2015 (the transition date) by recognizing all assets and liabilities whose recognition is required by Ind AS, not recognizing items of assets or liabilities which are not permitted by Ind AS, by reclassifying items from Previous GAAP to Ind AS as required under Ind AS, and applying Ind AS in measurement of recognized assets and liabilities. However, this principle is subject to the certain optional exemptions availed by the company as detailed below :

Exemptions availed

Ind AS 101 allows first-time adopters certain exemptions from the retrospective application of certain requirements under Ind AS.

The Company has availed the following exemptions:

1. Deemed cost for property, plant and equipment and intangible assets: Property Plant and equipment, were carried in Balance sheet prepared in accordance with previous GAAP on 31st March 2015. The Company has elected to regard carrying values as at 31st March 2015 as deemed cost at the date of transition.

2. Derecognition of financial assets and liabilities: The Company has applied the derecognition requirements of financial assets and financial liabilities prospectively for transactions occurring on or after April 1, 2015 ( the transition date).

3. Cumulative translation differences on foreign operations: Cumulative currency translation differences for all foreign operations are deemed to be zero as at 1 April 2015.

4. Impairment of financial assets: The Company has applied the impairment requirements of Ind AS 109 retrospectively; however, as permitted by Ind AS 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 recognized 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.

5. Determining whether an arrangement contains a lease: The Company has applied Appendix C of Ind AS 17 Determining whether an Arrangement contains a Lease to determine whether an arrangement existing at the transition date contains a lease on the basis of facts and circumstances existing at that date.

NOTE 4 - SHARE BASED PAYMENTS Employee share option plan of the company

Honeywell International Inc (HII), the ultimate holding company, may grant stock options and restricted stock awards to certain employees under its stock incentive plan.

Stock Options—The exercise price, term and other conditions applicable to each option granted under the stock plans are generally determined by the Management Development and Compensation Committee of the Board of Honeywell International Inc. The exercise price of stock options is set on the grant date and may not be less than the fair market value per share of our stock on that date. The fair value is recognized as an expense over the employee’s requisite service period (generally the vesting period of the award). Options generally vest over a four-year period and expire after ten years.

Restricted Stock Units—Restricted stock unit (RSU) awards entitle the holder to receive one share of common stock for each unit when the units vest. RSUs are issued to certain employees as compensation at fair market value at the date of grant. RSUs typically become fully vested over periods ranging from three to seven years and are payable in Honeywell common stock upon vesting.

To the extent the Company is confident that it may have a strong case that portion is disclosed under contingent liabilities.

c) The timing and the amount of cash flows that will arise from these matters will be determined by the Appellate Authorities only on settlement of these cases.

B Warranty

Provision for warranty is considered based on the rolling average warranty expense incurred in the preceding 12 months, the warranty period for which ranges from 12 months to 24 months as per provisions of the contracts.

C Provision for Estimated Cost to complete on Contracts

A provision for estimated cost to complete on construction contracts is recognized when it is probable that the total contract cost will exceed total contract revenue. The provision shall be utilized as and when the contract gets executed.

B Defined benefit plans (gratuity and other retirement benefits)

The Company also provides for gratuity, covering eligible employees in accordance with the Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972. The Gratuity Plan provides a lump sum payment to vested employees at retirement, death, incapacitation or termination of employment, of an amount based on the respective employee’s salary and the tenure of employment.

Provident Fund contributions are made to a Trust administered by the Company for its qualifying employees. This defined benefit plans is administered by separate trust that is legally separated from the entity. The board of the trust is required by law and by its trust deed to act in the interest of the fund and of all the relevant stakeholders in the scheme; i.e. active employees, inactive employees, retirees, employers.

Note : There is a net surplus position in PF valuation and however as per the PF trust act, no surplus can be transferred to the company as it is separate from the company, the company would not be accounting for any amount in its books in this position.

Sensitivity Analysis

Sensitivity analysis indicates the influence of a reasonable change in certain significant assumptions on the outcome of the Present value of obligation (PVO) and aids in understanding the uncertainty of reported amounts.

1. Sensitivity analysis for each significant actuarial assumptions viz. Discount rate and Salary escalation rate as of the end of the reporting period, showing how the defined benefit obligation would have been affected by changes is called out in the table above.

2. The assumptions used in preparing the sensitivity analysis is Discount rate at 100 bps and- 100 bps

Salary assumption at 1 % and- 1%

3. The method used to calculate the liability in these scenarios is by keeping all the other parameters and the data same as in the base liability calculation except for the parameters to be stressed .

4. There is no change in the method from the previous period and the points/percentage by which the assumptions are stressed are same to that in the previous year.

Gratuity fund asset is managed byLife Insurance Corporation of India and the funding ratio of 60% (ie asset over liability ratio of 60% ), which is above average when compared to other companies, actuary don’t see any material risk of HAIL unable to meet the Gratuity payments. Also as the fund is set up as a trust, the monies as a part of the trust will not flow back into the company until the last employee of the trust is paid .

A note on other risks

Investment risk: The funds are invested by LIC and they provide returns basis the prevalent bond yields, LIC on an annual basis requests for contributions to the fund, while the contribution requested may not be on the same interest rate as the bond yields provided, basis the past experience it is low risk.

Interest Risk: LIC does not provide market value of assets, rather maintains a running statement with interest rates declared annually - The fall in interest rate is not therefore offset by increase in value of Bonds, hence may pose a risk.

Longevity Risk: Since the Gratuity Payment happens at the retirement age, longevity impact is very low at this age.

Financial risk management objectives

Company is exposed to foreign exchange risk on account of import risk and hedging activities; and export transactions which is monitored periodically. The Company leverages the global treasury operations of Honeywell to improve mitigation of risk relating to foreign exchange.

Foreign currency risk management

The Company undertakes transactions denominated in foreign currencies; consequently, exposures to exchange rate fluctuations arise. The carrying amounts of the companies foreign currency denominated monetary assets and monetary liabilities at the end of the reporting period are as follows:
