the Companies Act, 2013 ('Act') read with Rule 7 of the Companies
(Accounts) Rules, 2014, the provisions of the Act (to the extent

assets for processing and their realization in cash and cash
equivalents, the Company has considered a period of twelve months for
the purposes of classification of assets and liabilities as current and
noncurrent.
(iii) VALUATION OF INVENTORIES:
(a) Finished goods are valued at lower of cost or net realizable value.
In the case of finished goods, cost is determined by taking material,
labour and related factory overheads including depreciation and fixed
production overheads arrived at by the cost sheet of the last month of
the financial year. Relevant proportionate amount of excise duty is
also added. Fixed overheads are allocated for inclusion in the cost of
conversion on the basis of normal levels of production capacity or
actual production whichever is higher.
(b) Raw materials, stores and spares have been valued at cost by using
weighted average basis. Cost includes purchase price, freight and other
incidental expenses incurred to bring the material at the present
location.
(c) Goods in process are valued at raw material cost incurred up to the
stage of production plus conversion cost apportioned on the basis of

(including electrical installation, factory equipment, storage & water
system) the estimated useful life of assets has, with retrospective
effect, been considered as 30 years. The aforesaid Plant & Machinery
does not include electrical fan, cooler, refrigerator, A.C. and other
electrical appliances given to the employee's on which depreciation
rates has been charged as per the useful lives as prescribed under Part
C of Schedule II of the Companies Act 2013. The rate of depreciation on
plant & machinery determined on the basis of life of 30 years are lower
than rates prescribed in Schedule II which are based on 15 Years. The
rate of depreciation as per Straight Line Method is being used is
3.333% as against rate of 6.67% mentioned in Schedule II of Companies
Act, 2013. Hence the useful lives for these assets are different from
the useful lives as prescribed under Part C of Schedule II of the
Companies Act 2013.
(b) In the case of purchase/sale of asset, depreciation is computed on
pro rata basis from the date of such addition or as the case may be, up
