1. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Standards issued but not yet effective

4.1 New Accounting Standards yet to be adopted

Ministry of Corporate Affairs ("MCA") through Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Amendment Rules, 2018 has notified the following new Accounting Standards (''Ind AS'') and amendments to Ind ASs which the Company has not applied as they are effective for annual periods beginning on or after April 1, 2018:

Ind AS 115 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers

Ind AS 115 establishes a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers. Ind AS 115 will supersede the current revenue recognition standard Ind AS 18 Revenue, Ind AS 11 Construction Contracts when it becomes effective.

The core principle of Ind AS 115 is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Specifically, the standard introduces a 5-step approach to revenue recognition:

- Step 1: Identify the contract(s) with a customer

- Step 2: Identify the performance obligation in contract

- Step 3: Determine the transaction price

- Step 4: Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract

- Step 5: Recognise revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation

Under Ind AS 115, an entity recognizes revenue when (or as) a performance obligation is satisfied, i.e. when ''control'' of the goods or services underlying the particular performance obligation is transferred to the customer

The Company has completed an initial assessment of the potential impact of the adoption of Ind AS 115 on accounting policies followed in its financial statements. The quantitative impact of adoption of Ind AS 115 on the financial statements in the period

of initial application is not reasonably estimable as at present. However as per the management assessment the impact is not expected to be significant.

Transition

The Company plans to apply Ind AS 115 using the cumulative effect method , with the effect of initially applying this standard recognized at the date of initial application (i.e. 1 April 2018) in retained earnings. As a result, the Company will not present relevant individual line items appearing under comparative period presentation.

Ind AS 21 - The effect of changes in Foreign Exchanges rates

The amendment has been incorporated in Ind AS 21 as Appendix B which clarifies on the accounting of transactions that include the receipt or payment of advance consideration in a foreign currency. The appendix is applicable for accounting periods beginning on or after 1 April 2018. The appendix explains that the date of the transaction, for the purpose of determining the exchange rate, is the date of initial recognition of the non-monetary prepayment asset or deferred income liability. If there are multiple payments or receipts in advance, a date of transaction is established for each payment or receipt. The Company is evaluating the impact of this amendment on its financial statements.

(a) Rights, preferences and restrictions attached to equity shares

The Company has only one class of equity shares having a par value of '' 10 per share. Each holder of equity shares is entitled to one vote per share. The Company declares and pays dividends in Indian rupees. The dividend proposed by the Board of Directors is subject to the approval of the shareholders in the ensuing Annual General Meeting.

The shareholders at the Annual General Meeting held on 09 August 2017 approved dividend of Rs, 8 per equity share for year ended 31 March 2017 which was subsequently paid during the quarter ended 30 September 2017. The amount was recognized as distributions to equity shareholders during the nine month period ended 31 December 2017 and the total appropriation was Rs, 269.60 lakhs including corporate dividend tax of Rs, 45.60 lakhs.

On 24 May 2018, the Board of Directors have proposed a final dividend of Rs, 16 per equity share for the financial year ended 31 March 2018. The proposal is subject to the approval of shareholders at the Annual General Meeting. If approved, the dividend would result in a cash outflow of Rs, 540.10 lakhs inclusive of dividend distribution tax of Rs, 92.10 lakhs.

In the event of liquidation of the Company, the holders of equity shares will be entitled to receive remaining assets of the Company, after distribution of all preferential amounts. The distribution will be in proportion to the number of equity shares held by the shareholders.

The information has been given in respect of such vendors to the extent they could be identified as micro and small enterprises as per the MSMED Act on the basis of information available with the Company

C. 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 limits and controls and to monitor risks and adherence to limits. The Company, through its training and established procedures, aims to maintain a disciplined and constructive control environment in which all employees understand their roles and obligations.

The nature of the Company''s business exposes it to a range of financial risks. These risks include:

(i) credit risk;

(ii) liquidity risk; and

(iii) market risk.

(i) Credit risk:

Credit risk refers to the risk of default on its obligation by the counterparty resulting in a financial loss. The maximum exposure to the credit risk at the reporting date is primarily from trade receivables amounting to '' 1,696.51 lakhs and '' 1,841.52 lakhs as of 31 March 2018 and 31 March 2017, respectively. Trade receivables are typically unsecured and are derived from revenue earned from customers located in India and outside India. The management has established accounts receivable policy under which customer accounts are regularly monitored. The Company has a dedicated sales team which is responsible for collecting dues from the customer within stipulated period. The management reviews status of critical accounts on a regular basis.

On account of adoption of Ind AS 109, the Company uses expected credit loss model to assess the impairment loss of trade receivables.

a) Expected credit loss assessment for trade receivables as at 31 March 2018, 31 March 2017 and 1 April 2016 :

The Company has used a practical expedient by computing the expected credit loss allowance for trade receivables based on a provision matrix. Expected loss rates are based on average computed default rate based on historical analysis of trade receivables.

The following table provides information about the exposure to credit risk and expected credit loss for trade receivables -

(ii) Liquidity risk:

The Company''s principal sources of liquidity are cash and cash equivalents and cash flow that is generated from operations. The Company has no outstanding bank borrowings. The Company believes that the current working capital is sufficient to meet its current obligatory requirements. Accordingly, no liquidity risk is perceived.

As on 31 March 2018, the Company had a working capital of Rs, 5,838.33 lakhs (as on 31 March 2017 Rs, 4731.79 lakhs, as on 1 April 2016 Rs, 3,359.60 lakhs) including cash and cash equivalents and other bank balance of Rs, 4,038.39 lakhs (as on 31 March 2017 Rs, 4,586.21 lakhs; as on 1 April 2016 Rs, 2,859.95 lakhs). The working capital of the Company for this

(iii) Market risk

"Market risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices- such as foreign exchange rates, interest rates and equity 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.

Market risk comprises of:

a. Interest rate risk

b. Foreign currency risk

Financial instruments affected by market risk include other financial assets, trade receivables and trade payables.

a. Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. Since the Company does not have any financial instrument with variable interest rates, it is not exposed to interest rate risk.

b. Foreign currency risk

Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of an exposure will fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates. The Company''s exposure to the risk of changes in foreign exchange rates relates primarily to the Company''s operating activities (when revenue or expense is denominated in a foreign currency). The foreign currency to which the Company is majorly exposed to are US Dollars and GBP

The Company has entered into derivative contracts to hedge its risk associated with foreign currency fluctuations. However, none of these contracts can be co-related on one to one basis against the underlying exposure. The forward sell contracts which are outstanding as at end of the year is as follows:

c Explanatory notes to the Balance Sheet and Statement of Profit and Loss Reconciliation i Excise duty

Under previous GAAP, revenue from sale of goods was presented net of the excise duty on sales. Under Ind AS, revenue from sale of goods is presented inclusive of excise duty. Excise duty is presented in the Statement of Profit and Loss as an expense. This has resulted in an increase in the revenue from operations and expenses for the year ended 31 March 2017 by '' 571.51 lakhs. The total comprehensive income for the year ended and equity as on 31 March 2017 has remained unchanged.

ii Remeasurement of defined benefit plans

In the financial statements prepared under Previous GAAP, measurement of defined benefit plans (gratuity), arising primarily due to change in actuarial assumptions was recognized as employee benefits expense in the Statement of Profit and Loss. Under Ind AS, such remeasurement benefits relating to defined benefit plans is recognized in other comprehensive income (OCI) as per the requirements of Ind AS 19- Employee benefits. Consequently, the related tax effect of the same has also been recognized in OCI.

For the year ended 31 March, 2017, remeasurement of gratuity liability resulted in a net loss of '' 23.09 lakhs which has now been removed from employee benefits expense in the Statement of Profit and Loss and recognized separately in Other Comprehensive Income. This has resulted in decrease in Employee benefits expense by '' 23.09 lakhs and loss in Other Comprehensive income by '' 23.09 lakhs for the year ended 31 March, 2017. Consequently, tax effect of the same amounting to '' 7.99 lakhs is also recognized separately in Other Comprehensive Income.

iii Provisions

The impact arising from the change is summarized below:

7. Employee benefits

Defined contributions plans

The Company makes contributions, determined as a specified percentage of employee salaries, in respect of qualifying employees towards Provident Fund, Labour Welfare Fund and Superannuation Scheme , which are the defined contribution plans. The Company has no obligations other than to make the specified contributions. The contributions are charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss as they accrue. The amount recognized as an expense towards defined contribution plans for the year for provident fund and superannuation scheme aggregated to INR 85.87 Lakhs (31 March 2017: INR 76.95 Lakhs).

8. Managerial Remuneration

During an earlier year, the Company had paid managerial remuneration to Late Hitesh Saiwal- Managing Director amounting to Rs, 102.07 lakhs which was in excess of the limits specified in section 197 read with Schedule V of the Act by Rs, 73.01 lakhs.

9. Transfer Pricing

The Company has developed a comprehensive system of maintenance of information and documents as required by the transfer pricing legislation under section 92-92F of the Income Tax Act, 1961. The management is of the opinion that its international transactions are at arm''s length so that the aforesaid legislation will not have any impact on the financial statements, particularly on the amount of tax expense and that of provision for taxation.

The company has applied for Advanced Pricing Agreement (APA) in FY 2015-16, the period covered under rollback is from FY 2012-13 to FY 2015-16 and five year down the line i.e. from FY 2016-17 to 2020-21. Besides this the APA has a persuasive value on all open Transfer pricing litigations of past years.

Hence, there will no material impact on the financial statements.
