* Matter under dispute with Maharashtra State Electricity Distribution Company Limited and is pending for hearing with Nagpur bench, Bombay High Court.

# It is not practicable for the Company to estimate the timing of cash outflows, if any, in respect of the above pending resolution of respective proceedings.

Notes:

(i) Out of the above litigations, the Company has provided ^38.30 crores (31 March 2021 : ^38.30 crores) against various litigations and remaining contingent liabilities is ?43.93 crores (31 March 2021 : ?41.65 crores).

(ii) Hon''ble Supreme Court of India has pronounced a ruling dated 28 February 2019 in which it is held that ''allowance'' paid to employees, will be included in the scope of ''basic wages'' and thus, will be subject to provident fund contributions. Petitions have been filed with Hon''ble Supreme Court of India seeking additional clarification with respect to the application of this ruling. As this ruling has not prescribed any clarification w.r.t. to its application, the Company is in the process of evaluating its impact. Management believes that this will not result in any material liability on the Company.

(iii) Customs duty claims (including penalties) against the Company aggregating to ^220.26 crores (31 March 2021 : ^220.26 crores) have not been considered contingent as favourable orders have been received, in some of the cases, by the Company from the Custom Excise and Service Tax Appellate Tribunal. The Company believes that its position is strong in this regard. The matter is pending with the Hon''ble Supreme Court.

Pending resolution of the respective proceedings, it is not practicable for the Company to estimate the timings of cash outflows, if any, in respect of the above as it is determinable only on receipt of judgements/decisions pending with various forums/authorities."

(iv) The Company has reviewed all its pending litigations and proceedings and has adequately provided for where provisions are required and disclosed as contingent liabilities where applicable, in its standalone financial statements. The Company also believes that the above issues, when finally settled, are not likely to have any significant impact on the financial position of the Company. The Company does not expect any reimbursements in respect of the above contingent liabilities.

38. Employee benefitsa) Defined contribution plan

An amount of ?4.63 crores [31 March 2021 : ?4.07 crores] for the year has been recognised as an expense in respect of the Company''s contributions towards Provident Fund, an amount of ?0.14 crores [31 March 2021 : ?0.13 crores] for the year has been recognised as an expense in respect of Company''s contributions towards Employee State Insurance and an amount of ?0.12 crores [31 March 2021 : ?0.10 crores] for the year has been recognised as an expense in respect of the Company''s contributions towards National Pension Scheme, which are deposited with the government authorities and have been included under employee benefit expenses in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

b) Defined benefit plan 1) Gratuity

The Company provides for gratuity for employees in India as per the Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972. Employees who are in continuous service for a period of 5 years are eligible for gratuity. The amount of gratuity payable on retirement/termination is the employees last drawn basic salary per month computed proportionately for 15 days salary multiplied for the number of years of service. Reconciliation of opening and closing balances of the present value of the defined benefit obligation:

These assumptions were developed by management with the assistance of independent actuarial appraisers. Discount factors are determined close to each year end by reference to government bonds of relevant economic markets and that have terms to maturity approximating to the terms of the related obligation. Other assumptions are based on management''s historical experience.

The above defined benefit plan exposes the Company to following risks:

Interest rate risk:

The defined benefit obligation calculated uses a discount rate based on government bonds. If bond yields fall, the defined benefit obligation will tend to increase.

Salary inflation risk:

Expected increases in salary will increase the defined benefit obligation.

Demographic risk:

This is the risk of variability of results due to unsystematic nature of decrements that include mortality, withdrawal, disability and retirement. The effect of these decrements on the defined benefit obligation is not straight forward and depends upon the combination of salary increase, discount rate and vesting criteria. It is important not to overstate withdrawals because in the financial analysis the retirement benefit of a short career employee typically costs less per year as compared to a long service employee.

Funding

This is an unfunded benefit plan for qualifying employees.

(vi) Sensitivity analysis for gratuity liability

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

(viii) Expected contribution

The expected future employer contributions for defined benefit plan ?3.14 crores as at 31 March 2022 [31 March 2021 : ?2.58 crores].

c) Other long-term employee benefits

An amount of ?3.59 crores [31 March 2021 : ?2.71 crores] pertains to expense towards compensated absences.

40. Segment information Basis of segmentation:

The Company''s primary business segment is reflected based on principal business activities carried on by the Company. Chairman and Managing Director has been identified as being the Chief Operating Decision Maker (''CODM'') and evaluates the Company''s performance and allocates resources based on analysis of the various performance indicators of the Company as a single unit. As per Indian Accounting Standard 108, Operating Segments, as notified under the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules 2015, the Company operates in one reportable business segment i.e., manufacturing and trading of polyester goods.

Geographical information:

The geographical information analyses the Company''s revenue and trade receivables from such revenue in India and other countries. In presenting the geographical information, segment revenue and receivables has been based on the geographic location of customers.

(i) Risk management framework

The Company''s board of directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the Company''s risk management framework. The board of directors has established the risk management committee, which is responsible for developing and monitoring the Company''s risk management policies. The committee reports regularly to the board of directors on its activities.

The Company''s risk management policies are established to identify and analyse the risks faced by the Company, to set appropriate risk limits and controls and to monitor risks and adherence to limits. Risk management policies and systems are reviewed regularly to reflect changes in market conditions and the Company''s activities.

The Company''s risk committee oversees how management monitors compliance with the Company''s risk management policies and procedures, and reviews the adequacy of the risk management framework in relation to the risks faced by the Company. The audit committee is assisted in its oversight role by internal audit. Internal audit undertakes both regular and ad hoc reviews of risk management controls and procedures, the results of which are reported to the audit committee.

(ii) Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations and arises principally from the Company''s receivables from customers.

The carrying amounts of financial assets represent the maximum credit risk exposure.

Trade receivables

The Company''s exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristics of each customer. However, management also considers the factors that may influence the credit risk of its customer base, including the default risk associated with the industry and country in which customers operate.

The Company limits its exposure to credit risk from trade receivables by establishing a credit period for all customer categories. In case of delay beyond credit period, the interest is generally recovered at the rate of 12% to 18%. Most of the Company''s customers have been transacting with the Company from past few years, and most of these customers'' balances are not credit-impaired at the reporting date except in few cases reported. Identifying concentrations of credit risk requires judgement in the light of specific circumstances. The Company monitors ageing of its trade receivables regularly and based on the same takes corrective action. Trade receivables having ageing more than 180 days is monitored individually and loss allowance is created based on such assessment.

(iii) Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will encounter difficulty in meeting the obligations associated with its financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset. The Company''s approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when they are due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Company''s reputation. The Company uses activity-based costing to cost its products, which assists it in monitoring cash flow requirements and optimising its cash return on investments.

The Company has secured bank loans that contains certain loan covenants. A future breach of covenant may require the Company to repay the loan earlier than indicated in the above table. Covenants are monitored on regular basis by the treasury department and regularly reported to management to ensure compliance with the agreement. Further, there have been no default in repayment of loan and no breaches in the financial covenants of any interest-bearing loans and borrowing in the current year.

(iv) Market risk

Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices - such as foreign exchange rates, interest rates and commodity prices - will affect the Company''s income or the value of its holdings of financial instruments. The objective of market risk management is to manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable parameters, while optimising the return.

Commodity price risk

Commodity price risk arises due to fluctuation in prices of crude oil. The Company has a risk management framework aimed at prudently managing the risk arising from the volatility in commodity prices and freight costs. The Company''s commodity risk is managed centrally through well-established control processes. In accordance with the risk management policy, the Company enters into various transactions using derivatives to hedge its exposure, as and when required. Further, selling price of finished goods and cost of raw materials fluctuates due to fluctuation in prices of crude oil and Company expects that the net impact of such fluctation would not be material.

Currency risk

The Company is exposed to currency risk to the extent that there is a mismatch between the currencies in which sales, purchases and borrowings are denominated. The currencies in which these transactions are primarily denominated are US dollars, Japanese Yen and Euro. The Company uses forward exchange contracts to hedge its currency risk, most with a maturity of less than one year from the reporting date, as and when required.

Interest rate riski) Liabilities

The Company''s policy is to minimise interest rate cash flow risk exposures on long term financing. The Company is exposed to changes in market interest rates through bank borrowings at variable interest rates.

Lease payments not recognised as a liability

The Company has elected not to recognise a lease liability for short-term leases (leases with an expected term of 12 months or less) or for leases of low value assets. Payments made under such leases are expensed on a straight-line basis. The Company does not have any liability to make variable lease payments for the right-to-use the underlying asset recognised in the financials.

The expense relating to payments not included in the measurement of the lease liability for short-term leases and leases of low value is ?9.28 crores (31 March 2021 : ?7.01 crores).

At 31 March 2022, the Company was committed to short term-leases and leases of low value, and the total commitment as at that date was ?4.83 crores (31 March 2021 : ?5.24 crores).

Total cash outflow for short term-leases and leases of low value for the year ended 31 March 2022 was ?9.28 crores (31 March 2021 : ?7.23 crores).

Total cash outflow for leases for the year ended 31 March 2022 was ?15.86 crores (31 March 2021 : ?12.93 crores).

43. Particulars of investments made as required by clause (4) of Section 186 of the Companies Act, 2013 and as required by Securities and Exchange Board of India (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015 has been given under the investment schedule. Refer note 6(a).

a) the Company has made contribution towards Guardian Minister Assistance Fund Committee, Nagpur, Maharashtra

b) the Company has made contribution towards promotion of healthcare including preventive health care, disaster management and PM-Cares Fund to provide relief to those affected by emergency or distress situation of COVID-19.

47. In March 2020, World Health Organization (WHO) had declared the outbreak of Novel Corona virus "Covid-19" as a pandemic. Complying with the directives of Government, the plant and offices of the Company had been under lock-down impacting the operations for the previous year. However, the second wave of Covid-19 had resulted in re-imposition of partial lockdowns/restrictions, which impacted the Company''s performance during the quarter ended 30 June 2021.

Post lifting of the lock down restrictions, the Company has carried out a comprehensive assessment of possible impact on its business operations, financial assets, contractual obligations and its overall liquidity position, based on the internal and external sources of information and application of reasonable estimates. The Company does not foresee any significant incremental risk to the recoverability of its assets or in its ability to meet its financial obligations over the foreseeable future, given early and required steps taken to contain, protect and mitigate the exposure. The management will continue to monitor any material change arising due to the impact of this pandemic on financial and operational performance of the Company and take necessary measures to address the situation.

48. Per transfer pricing legislation under section 92-92F of the Income-tax Act 1961, the Company is required to use certain specific methods in computing arm''s length price of international transactions with associated enterprises and maintains adequate documentation in this respect. The legislations require that such information and documentation to be contemporaneous in nature. The Company has appointed independent consultants for conducting the Transfer Pricing Study to determine whether the transactions with associated

enterprises undertake during the financial year are on an "arm''s length basis". The Company is in the process of conducting a transfer pricing study for the current financial year and expects such records to be in existence latest by the due date as required by law. However, in the opinion of the management the update would not have a material impact on these financial statements. Accordingly, these financial statements do not include any adjustments for the transfer pricing implications, if any

Reasons for variance

1. Lower ratio in the current year due to repayment of borrowings and higher earnings as compared to previous year

2. Increase in net profit in the current year in comparision to previous year resulting in improvement of ratio

3. Increase in business activity (increase in sales and corresponding net purchases) in comparision to previous year has resulted in improvement of ratio

4. Revenue growth along with increase in working capital has led to improvement in the ratio.

Notes :

(i) Current ratio = Current assets/ current liabilities

(ii) Debt equity ratio = Total debt/ shareholders equity

(iii) Debt service coverage ratio = Earnings available for debt service/ debt service (refer point (A) below)

(iv) Return on equity ratio = Net profits after taxes - preference dividend (if any)/ average shareholder''s equity

(v) Inventory turnover ratio = sales (excluding other operating income) /average inventory

(viii) Net capital turnover ratio = net sales/ working capital

(ix) Net profit ratio= net profit/ net sales

(x) Return on capital employed (ROCE)= earning before interest and taxes/ capital employed (refer point (B) below)

(xi) Return on investment= income received from investments/ average investments. No income has been received on investment in the year ended 31 March 2022 and 31 March 2021 hence reported as nil.

Other explanatory points

(A) Earning for debt service = net profit after taxes non-cash operating expenses like depreciation and other amortizations Interest other adjustments like loss on sale of property, plant & equipment etc.

3. Financial instruments - accounting classifications and fair value measurements

The fair values of the financial assets and liabilities are included at the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sales.

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair values:

1. Fair value of cash, trade and other short term receivables, intercompany receivables, payables, loans and advances and other current liabilities approximated their carrying amounts largely due to the short term maturities of these instruments.

2. The Company uses the following hierarchy for determining and disclosing the fair value of financial instruments by valuation technique.

Level 1: quoted (unadjusted) prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2: other techniques for which all inputs which have a significant effect on the recorded fair value are observable, either directly or indirectly.

Level 3: techniques which use inputs that have a significant effect on the recorded fair value that are not based on observable market data. Fair value is generally determined using discounted cash flow analysis.

A. Accounting classifications and fair values

The following tables show the carrying amounts and fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities, including their levels in the fair value hierarchy.

B. Measurement of fair values Assets and liabilities are to be measured based on the following valuation techniques:

Market approach - Prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities.

Income approach - Converting the future amounts based on market expectations to its present value using the discounting methodology.

Cost approach - Replacement cost method.

Quoted market prices in active markets are available for investments in securities and, as such, these investments are classified within Level 1.

Level 1 hierarchy includes financial instruments measured using quoted prices. This includes listed equity instruments which are traded in stock exchanges and valued using closing price at the reporting date.

The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market is determined using valuation techniques. The Company uses its judgments to select a variety of methods and make assumptions that are mainly based on the conditions existing at the end of each reporting period.

The following table shows the valuation techniques used in measuring Level 2 and Level 3 fair values for financial instruments measured at fair value in the balance sheet, as well as the significant unobservable inputs used. Related valuation processes are described in note 2(o).

# Amount estimated based on the estimated probability of the outcome of litigation based on the management’s assessment supported by legal advice

* The fair value of the Security deposits is computed using the discounted cash flows based on the current lending rates which is unchanged and therefore fair value of deposits is same as its carrying amount. They are classified as level 3 fair values in the fair value hierarchy due to use of unobservable inputs.

** For some of the unquoted investments, the Company have determined the fair value as NIL which is based on the net worth of the Company which is either Nil or negative.

*** Financial liabilities include secured and unsecured bank loans, optionally convertible debentures liability component and other financial liabilities.

There have been no transfers between level 1, 2 and 3 during the current or previous financial year.

Financial risk management

The Company has exposure to the following risks arising from financial instruments:

- credit risk [see point no. (ii) below]

- liquidity risk - [see point no. (iii) below]; and

- market risk - [see point no. (iv) below]

(i) Risk management framework

The Company''s board of directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the Company''s risk management framework. The board of directors has established the risk management committee, which is responsible for developing and monitoring the Company''s risk management policies. The committee reports regularly to the board of directors on its activities.

The Company''s risk management policies are established to identify and analyse the risks faced by the Company, to set appropriate risk limits and controls and to monitor risks and adherence to limits. Risk management policies and systems are reviewed regularly to reflect changes in market conditions and the Company''s activities.

The Company''s risk committee oversees how management monitors compliance with the Company''s risk management policies and procedures, and reviews the adequacy of the risk management framework in relation to the risks faced by the Company. The audit committee is assisted in its oversight role by internal audit. Internal audit undertakes both regular and ad hoc reviews of risk management controls and procedures, the results of which are reported to the audit committee.

(ii) Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations, and arises principally from the Company''s receivables from customers.

The carrying amounts of financial assets represent the maximum credit risk exposure.

Trade receivables

The Company''s exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristics of each customer. However, management also considers the factors that may influence the credit risk of its customer base, including the default risk associated with the industry and country in which customers operate.

The risk management committee has established a credit policy under which each new customer is analyzed individually for creditworthiness before the Company''s standard payment and delivery terms and conditions are offered. The Company review includes external information’s, if they are available, financial statements, credit agency information, industry information and in some cases bank references. Sale limits are established for each customer and reviewed periodically. Any sales exceeding those limits require approval from the risk management committee

The Company limits its exposure to credit risk from trade receivables by establishing a maximum payment period of 10 days for all customer categories. In case of delay beyond 10 days, the interest is generally recovered at the rate of 18% up to 30 days from the date of invoice and if the delay in beyond 30 days, it is recovered at the rate of 24% from the date of invoice. Average recovery rate of interest from overdue trade receivables in past years was 12-14%. Most of the Company''s customers have been transacting with the Company from past few years, and most of these customers'' balances are not credit-impaired at the reporting date except in few cases. Identifying concentrations of credit risk requires judgments in the light of specific circumstances. The Company monitors ageing of its trade receivables regularly and based on the same takes corrective action. Trade receivables having ageing more than 180 days is monitor individually and loss allowance is created based on such assessment.

(iii) Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will encounter difficulty in meeting the obligations associated with its financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset. The Company’s approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when they are due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Company’s reputation. The Company uses activity-based costing to cost its products, which assists it in monitoring cash flow requirements and optimizing its cash return on investments.

The following are the remaining contractual maturities of financial liabilities at the reporting date. The amounts are gross and undiscounted, and include contractual interest payments:

As disclosed in note 16 and 17, the Company has a secured bank loan that contains a loan covenant. A future breach of covenant may require the Company to repay the loan earlier than indicated in the above table. Under the agreement, the covenant is monitored on a regular basis by the treasury department and regularly reported to management to ensure compliance with the agreement.

As at 31 March 2018 the Company has not complied with certain financial covenants mentioned under the terms of borrowings mainly due to paucity of working capital funds. To augment the additional fund requirement, the Company has taken certain initiative - Refer note 41 (b). Also, based on the past experience and the facts of the case the management believes that no financial obligation on part of the Company, is likely to arise in respect of the above matter and thus, no adjustments are required in these financial statements in this regard.

The interest payments on variable interest rate loans in the table above reflect spot interest rates at the reporting date and these amounts may change as market interest rates change. However, the Company doesn’t expect significant different amount on account of change in market interest rate changes..

Capital Management

The Company’s policy is to maintain a strong capital base so as to maintain investor, creditor and market confidence and to sustain future development of the business. The primary objective of the Company’s Capital Management is to maximize the shareholder’s value. Management also monitors the return on capital. The board of directors seeks to maintain a balance between the higher returns that might be possible with higher levels of borrowing and the advantages and security afforded by a sound capital position.

iv. Market risk

Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices - such as foreign exchange rates, interest rates and commodity prices - will affect the Company’s income or the value of its holdings of financial instruments. The objective of market risk management is to manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable parameters, while optimizing the return.

Commodity Price Risk

Commodity Price Risk arises due to fluctuation in prices of crude oil. The Company has a risk management framework aimed at prudently managing the risk arising from the volatility in commodity prices and freight costs. The Company’s commodity risk is managed centrally through well-established control processes.

The Company believes that its position is strong in this regard. The matter is pending with the Honorable Supreme Court. In addition, the Company has also received a show cause notice amounting to Rs.6 Crores.

- The Company is in the process of finalizing a compensation arrangement with its workers union for the past few years, starting November 2011 and the matter is pending with the Labour Court of Nagpur. During the previous year, the Company received an interim order from the Court to pay an interim increment w.e.f. November 2013, pending the final judgment. As and when the final judgment is received, the Company would accrue and pay for any differential compensation.

The Company believes that the above issues, when finally settled, are not likely to have any significant impact on the financial position of the Company.

- Commitments:

a) Estimated amount of contracts remaining to be executed on capital account and not provided for (net of advances) is Rs. 25.48 Crores (previous year Rs. nil).

b) On 25 January 2012, the Company entered into a memorandum of understanding ('MOU') with Indorama Ventures PCL, Thailand, for manufacturing of Purified Terepthalic Acid (PTA) and downstream products Polyethylene (PET) and Polyester Staple Fibre (PSF). As a part of the above process, the Company has entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Government of Tamil Nadu to set up the above project. The project continues to be at an initial stage of conceptualization.

c) The Company has commitments to export 285,985 MT (previous year 264,077 MT) of finished goods as per foreign trade policy pursuant to import of duty free material under advance license scheme.

Note 7: Insurance claim receivables:

(a) The Company had lodged claims with its insurance company for the loss of certain assets and loss suffered due to business interruption under loss of profit policy relating to a fire incidence at Butibori plant in 2007- 08. Since the matter has been under dispute with the insurance company, as per the terms and conditions of the above policy, the Company has, during the previous years, initiated the arbitration process for a claim of Rs.72.94 Crores for loss of business interruption and for the claim of Rs.6.43 Crores for loss of assets. While the said matter was pending conclusion by the Arbitral Tribunal, the Company, on a conservative basis, carried forward insurance recoverable (recorded in the financial year ended 31 March 2008) to the extent of Rs.33.53 Crores (net of receipt/adjustment) as advances recoverable, without prejudice to its right to claims aggregating Rs. 79.37 Crores. On 1 August 2012, the Arbitral Tribunal decided the matter in the favour of the Company with an award of Rs.32.45 Crores (net off receipt/adjustment) and interest at 9% per annum from July 2008 till the date of payment. Pursuant to the above award, the Company had during the year 2012-13 recorded the interest receivable amounting to Rs.11.69 Crores upto July 2012 (the date of order) and aligned the carrying amount of insurance claim. The Insurance Company had filed an appeal in the Delhi High Court against the same. On 20 January 2015, the Delhi High Court Single bench pronounced the order wherein the Court has remanded the matter back to Arbitral Tribunal for computation of claim on "turnover basis". Subsequently, the Company had filed an appeal with the Delhi High Court double bench and an interim stay has been awarded pending disposal. As a matter of prudence, the Company has not recognized the interest for the period after July 2012 based on the earlier arbitral tribunal's favourable judgment and also as legally advised, the Company is of the view that the amounts carried forward are fully recoverable.

(b) Consequent to an incident of fire during the year 2011-12, the Company had spent Rs.7.58 Crores on refurbishment of the concerned plant and machinery, which has been recognized as a receivable from the insurance company under other current assets. During the previous year, the management has submitted the claims to the surveyor. The final settlement is pending with insurance company.

Further, the Company strongly believes and is reasonably certain that the above cases do not have any significant impact on the financial position of the Company and it will be able to realize the above amounts in the normal course and, therefore, all the claims have been classified as current.

Note 7: The Company's business mainly comprises manufacture of polyester.

During the past few years, there has been significant volatility in raw material prices which are linked with crude oil prices and is subject to foreign exchange fluctuations. In comparison, the sales realization in the industry has been low in comparison to the raw material price variations. In addition, stiff competition in certain products, low capacity utilisation, high inflation, high interest rates and weakened rupee has resulted in a temporary phase of low operating margins/losses in the recent past and also accumulation of significant unabsorbed depreciation as per tax laws. However, the Company's products command a premium in the market due to cost competitiveness and quality standards and its premium product lines are operating at full capacity. The Company has internally assessed its position and the future outlook and has also initiated various measures including strategic steps to ensure profitable operations. To achieve the projected level of profitability, the Company has initiated steps including increase in the capacity for its premium products by making further investment in the product line and is also confident of the market demand for the increased production. These actions would be coupled with other initiatives which include cost saving measures, exploration of new markets especially exports, streamlined utilisation of export benefits, developing backward integration facilities towards producing certain key input materials. The Company is also arranging for funds to meet the above plans. Accordingly, the Company believes that considering the expected investment and resultant profitability over the next years & in future years, no provision is required for impairment of assets and is confident that the MAT Credits carried at the end of the year is fully recoverable and there are no indications of impairment of assets.

Note 8: The Company had made an early application, since the year 2010-11, of Accounting Standard 30 "Financial Instruments- Recognition and Measurement", issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India for accounting for forward exchange contracts taken for highly probable / forecast transactions, which are not covered by Accounting Standard 11. An amount of Rs.4.69 Crores has been recognized as expense (previous year an expense of Rs.10.40 Crores) in the financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2015 and included in exceptional items as an adjustment on the said application of Accounting Standard 30. During the current and previous year, due to significant volatility in the foreign currency vis-a-vis local currency, the Company has considered the foreign exchange fluctuation as an exceptional item in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

Note 9: During the current year, due to unprecedented fall in global prices of crude oil, the Company has incurred a loss of Rs.20.75 Crores (i.e.Rs.15.26 Crores for raw material and Rs.5.49 Crores for finished goods) on account of write down of inventories which has been considered as an exceptional item.

Note 10: The Company has considered it as appropriate to include interest of Rs.9.41 Crore (previous year Rs.8.33 Crore), received from customers as other operating income which hitherto was considered as other income upto the previous year.

Note 11: The figures relating to the previous year have been regrouped and reclassified, wherever necessary, to confirm to the current year's classification.
