3 Significant accounting policies A Property Plant & Equipment
A.1 Initial recognition and measurement
An item of property, plant and equipments recognized as an asset if and only if it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably.
Items of Property, Plant and Equipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation/amortization and accumulated impairment losses. Cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to bringing the asset, inclusive of non-refundable taxes & duties, to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management. When parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lifes, they are recognized separately. Items of spare parts, stand-by equipment and servicing equipment which meet the definition of Property, Plant and Equipment are capitalized. Property, Plant and Equipments which are not ready for intended use as on the date of Balance Sheet are disclosed as ''Capital Work-In-Progress ''includes value of Machinery lying at Bonded warehouse as at year end. The company had applied for the one time transition exemption of all considering the cost of the transition date i.e. 1st April, 2016 as the deemed cost under Ind-AS. Hence, regarded thereafter as historical cost.
A.2 Subsequent costs
Subsequent expenditure is recognized as an increase in the carrying amount of the asset when it is probable that future economic benefits deriving from the cost incurred will flow to the enterprise and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The cost of replacing part of an item of property, plant and equipment is recognized in the carrying amount of the item if it is probable that the future economic benefits embodied within the part will flow to the Company and its cost can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognized. The costs of the day-to-day servicing of Property, Plant and Equipment are recognized in profit or loss as incurred.
A.3 Derecognition
Property, Plant and Equipment are derecognized when no future economic benefits are expected from their use or upon their disposal. Gains and losses on disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment are determined by comparing the proceeds from
disposal with the carrying amount of property, plant and equipment, and are recognized in the statement of profit and loss.
A.4 Depreciation/amortization
Depreciation is recognized in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lifes of each part of an item of Property, Plant and Equipment. Leasehold lands are amortized over the lease term unless it is reasonably certain that the Company will obtain ownership by the end of the lease term.
Depreciation on additions to/deductions from property, plant and equipment during the year is charged on pro-rata basis from/up to the date on which the asset is available for use/disposed.
Depreciation on property, plant and equipment except leasehold land is provided on their estimated useful life as prescribed by Schedule II of Companies Act, 2013.
B Capital work-in-progress
The cost of self-constructed assets includes the cost of materials & direct labour, any other costs directly attributable to bringing the assets to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management and borrowing costs.
Expenses directly attributable to construction of property, plant and equipment incurred till they are ready for their intended use are identified and allocated on a systematic basis on the cost of related assets.
C Intangible assets and intangible assets under development C.1 Recognition and measurement
Intangible assets are recognized as an increase in the carrying amount of the asset when it is probable that future economic benefits deriving from the cost incurred will flow to the enterprise and the cost of the item can be measured reliably.
C.2 Derecognition
An intangible asset is derecognized when no future economic benefits are expected from their use or upon their disposal. Gains and losses on disposal of an item of intangible assets are determined by comparing the proceeds from disposal with the carrying amount of intangible assets and are recognized in the statement of profit and loss.
Intangible assets having definite life are amortized on straight line method in their useful life.
Inventories are valued âat lower of cost or net realizable valueâ except stock of residual products and scrap which are valued at net realizable value. The cost is computed on the weighted average basis. In case of finished goods and stock in process, cost is determined by considering material, labour, related overheads and duties thereon.
E Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalent in the balance sheet comprise cash at banks and cash on hand and short-term deposits with an original maturity of three months or less, which are subject to insignificant risk of change in value.
A financial instrument is any contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one entity and a financial liability or equity instrument of another entity.
Financial assets are recognised when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
F.1.1 Initial recognition and measurement
All financial assets are recognized initially at fair value plus or minus, in the case of financial assets not recorded at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs are attributable to the acquisition or issue of the financial asset, otherwise charged to Statement of Profit & Loss.
F.1.2 Subsequent measurement
Financial assets are subsequently classified and measured at:
⢠Financial assets at amortised cost.
⢠Financial assets at fair value through profit and loss (FVTPL).
⢠Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI).
a) Trade Receivables
Trade receivables are initially recognised at fair value. Subsequently, these assets are held at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate (EIR) method net of any expected credit losses wherever applicable. The EIR is the rate that discounts estimated future cash income through the expected life of financial instrument.
b) Debt instruments
i) Measured at amortized cost
A âdebt instrumentâ is measured at the amortized cost if both the following conditions are met:
(a) The asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets for collecting contractual cash flows, and
(b) Contractual terms of the asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest (SPPI) on the principal amount outstanding.
After initial measurement, such financial assets are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the EIR method. Amortized cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of the EIR. The EIR amortization is included in finance income in the profit or loss. The losses arising from impairment are recognized in the profit or loss.
ii) Measured at FVTOCI (Fair Value through OCI)
A âdebt instrumentâ is classified as at the FVTOCI if
both of the following criteria are met:
(a) The objective of the business model is achieved both by collecting contractual cash flows and selling the financial assets, and
(b) The assetâs contractual cash flows represent SPPI.
Debt instruments included within the FVTOCI category are measured initially as well as at each reporting date at fair value. Fair value movements are recognized in the OCI. However, the Company recognizes interest income, impairment losses & reversals and foreign exchange gain or loss in the profit and loss. On derecognition of the asset, cumulative gain or loss previously recognized in OCI is reclassified from the equity to profit and loss. Interest earned whilst holding FVTOCI debt instrument is reported as interest income using the EIR method.
iii) Measured at FVTPL (Fair value through profit or loss)
Debt instruments does not meet the criteria for categorization as at amortized cost or as FVTOCI, is classified as at FVTPL. The Company elects to classify the debt instrument, which otherwise meets amortized cost or FVTOCI criteria, as at FVTPL. However, such election is allowed only if doing so reduces or eliminates a measurement or recognition inconsistency (referred to as âaccounting mismatchâ). Debt instruments included within the FVTPL category are measured at fair value with all changes recognized in the profit and loss.
c) Equity Instruments
All investments in equity instruments measured at fair value.
Equity instrument valued at FVTOCI, and all fair value changes on the instruments, excluding dividends, are recognized in the OCI. There is no recycling of the amounts from OCI to P&L, even on sale of investment as the company transfers cumulative gain or loss within the equity.
Equity instruments if classified as FVTPL category are measured at fair value i.e. at NAV with all changes recognized in the profit and loss.
F.1.3 Derecognition
A financial asset (or, where applicable, a part of a financial asset or part of a Company of similar financial assets) is primarily derecognized (i.e. removed from the Companyâs balance sheet) when:
⢠The contractual rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired, or
⢠The Company has transferred its contractual rights to receive cash flows from the asset.
F.1.4 Impairment of Financial Asset
Expected credit losses are recognized for all
financial assets subsequent to initial recognition in Statement of Profit & Loss other than financials assets in FVTPL category.
For recognition of impairment loss on financial assets other than Trade receivables, the company determines whether there has been a significant increase in the credit risk since initial recognition. If credit risk has not increased significantly, 12-month ECL is used to provide impairment loss. However, If credit risk is increased significantly, lifetime ECL is used.
If, in a subsequent period, credit quality of the instrument improves such that there is no longer a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition, then the entity reverts to recognizing impairment loss allowance based on 12-month ECL.
For trade receivables Company applies âsimplified approachâ which requires expected lifetime losses to be recognized from initial recognition of the receivables. The Company uses historical default rates to determine impairment loss on the portfolio of trade receivables. At every reporting date these historical default rates are reviewed and changes in the forward looking estimates are analyzed.
For other assets, the Company uses 12 month ECL to provide for impairment loss where there is no significant increase in credit risk. If there is significant increase in credit risk full lifetime ECL is used.
F.2.1 Initial recognition and measurement
All financial liabilities are recognized at fair value and in case of loans, net of directly attributable cost. Fees of recurring nature are directly recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss as finance cost.
F.2.2 Subsequent measurement
Financial liabilities are carried at amortized cost using the effective interest method. Amortized cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or prem ium on acquisition and any material transaction that are any integral part of the EIR. For trade and other payables maturing within one year from the balance sheet date, the carrying amounts approximate fair value due to the short maturity of these instruments. Financial liabilities carried at fair value through profit or loss are measured at fair value with all changes in fair value recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
F.2.3 Derecognition
A financial liability is derecognized when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires. When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an
exchange or modification is treated as the derecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability. The difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognized in the statement of profit or loss.
F.3 Derivative financial instruments
The Company uses forwards to mitigate the risk of changes in exchange rates. Such derivative financial instruments are initially recognized at fair value on the date on which a derivative contract is entered into and are also subsequently measured at fair value. Derivatives are carried as financial assets when the fair value is positive and as financial liabilities when the fair value is negative. Any gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value of derivatives are taken directly to Statement of Profit and Loss.
Changes in the fair value of hedging instruments and hedged items that are designated and qualify as fair value hedges are recorded in the Statement of Profit and Loss. If the hedging relationship no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting, the adjustment to the carrying amount of a hedged item for which the effective interest method is used is amortised to Statement of Profit and Loss over the period of maturity.
The Company measures financial instruments, such as, derivatives at fair value at each balance sheet date. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value measurement is based on the presumption that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability takes place either:
⢠In the principal market for the asset or liability, or
⢠In the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the asset or liability.
The principal or the most advantageous market must be accessible by the company. The fair value of an asset or a liability is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, assuming that market participants act in their economic best interest. A fair value measurement of a nonfinancial asset takes into account a market participantâs ability to generate economic benefits by using the asset in its highest and best use or by selling it to another market participant that would use the asset in its highest and best use. The company uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available to measure fair value, maximizing the use of relevant observable inputs and minimizing the use of unobservable inputs.
H Impairment of Non-Financial Assets
The Company, in accordance with the Indian Accounting Standard (Ind AS) 36 âImpairment of Assetsâ, has adopted the practice of assessing at each Balance Sheet date whether there is any indication that an asset may be impaired. If any such indication exists, then the company provides for the loss for impairment of Assets after estimating the recoverable amount of the assets.
I Provisions & Contingent Liabilities
(i) Provisions
Provisions are recognized when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. Provisions are reviewed at each reporting period and are adjusted to reflect the current best estimate.
(ii) Contingencies
Contingent liabilities are disclosed when there is a possible obligation arising from past events, the existence of which will be confirmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of the Company or a present obligation that arises from past events where it is either not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle or a reliable estimate of the amount cannot be made. Information on contingent liability is disclosed in the Notes to the Financial Statements. Contingent assets are not recognized in financial statements but are disclosed, if any.
J Revenue Recognition
Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable and it is probable that future economic benefits will flow to the entity. Amount of sales are net of goods and service tax, sale returns, trade discounts and rebates but inclusive of excise duty. Revenue from sale of products is recognized when the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the products have been transferred to the buyer, and the amount of revenue can be measured reliably.
Company continues to account for export benefits on accrual basis based upon the concept of accrual in the year of utilisation of advance licences.
Dividend income is recognized when the right to receive the income is established.
Interest income is recognized, when no significant uncertainty as to measurability or collectability exists, on a time proportion basis taking into account the amount outstanding and the applicable interest rate , using the effective interest rate method (EIR).
K Foreign Currency Conversions/Transactions
Foreign Currency Transactions are recorded at the exchange rates prevailing on the date of the transactions. Gains and losses arising out of subsequent fluctuations are accounted for on actual payments or realisations as the case may be. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency as on Balance Sheet date are translated into functional currency at the exchange rates prevailing on that date and Exchange differences arising out of such conversion are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Income tax expense for the year comprises of current tax and deferred tax. It is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss except to the extent it relates to any business combination or to an item which is recognised directly in equity or in other comprehensive income.
Current tax expense is made on the basis of estimated taxable income for the current accounting period in accordance with the provisions of Income Tax Act, 1961 and judicial interpretations thereof as at the Balance Sheet date and takes into consideration various deductions and exemptions to which the Company is entitled to as well as the reliance placed by the Company on the legal advices received by it.
b) Deferred Tax
Deferred tax charge or credit reflects the tax effects of temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. The deferred tax charge or credit and the corresponding deferred tax liabilities or assets are recognized using the tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the Balance Sheet date. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each Balance Sheet date and are written-down or written-up to reflect the amount that is reasonably certain (as the case may be) to be realized.
Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to set off assets against liabilities representing current tax and where the deferred tax assets and the deferred tax liabilities relate to taxes on income levied by the same governing taxation law. Deferred tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses only if it is probable that future taxable amounts will be available to utilise those temporary differences and losses. Current and deferred tax is recognised in profit or loss, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. In that case, the tax is recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, respectively.
M Employee Benefits
(i) Defined Contribution Plan
Employee benefits in the form of Provident Fund (with Government Authorities) are considered as defined contribution plan and the contributions are charged to the statement of Profit & Loss of the year when the contributions to the respective funds are due.
(ii) Defined Benefit Plan
Retirement benefits in the form of Gratuity and Long term compensated leaves are considered as defined benefit obligations and are provided for on the basis of an actuarial valuation, using the projected unit credit method, as at the date of the Balance Sheet. Other short term absences are provided based on past experience of leave availed. Actuarial Gains and losses arising from experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions are recognized immediately in the balance sheet with a corresponding debit or credit to retained earnings through other comprehensive income (OCI) in the period in which they occur. Re-measurements are not reclassified to profit or loss in subsequent periods. All other expenses related to defined benefit plans are recognized in Statement of Profit and Loss as employee benefit expenses.
General and Specific Borrowing Cost that are directly attributable to the acquisition or construction or production of qualifying assets are capitalized as part of the cost of such assets upto the date when such assets are ready for intended use. Qualified assets are assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use or sale. Other borrowing costs are charged as expenses in the year in which they are incurred. Investment income earned on the temporary investment of specific borrowings pending their expenditure on qualifying assets is deducted from the borrowing cost eligible for capitalisation.
O Earning Per Share
Basic Earning Per Share is calculated by dividing the net profit for the period attributable to equity shareholders by weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period. For the purpose of calculating diluted earnings per share, net profit after tax during the year and the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year are adjusted for the effect of all dilutive potential equity shares.
The Company, as a lessee, recognises a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for its leasing arrangements, if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset.
The contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset, if it involves the use of an identified asset and the Company has substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the asset and has right to direct the use of the identified asset. The cost of the right-of-use asset shall comprise of the amount of the initial measurement of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or before the commencement date plus any initial direct costs incurred. The right-of-use assets is subsequently measured at cost less any accumulated depreciation, accumulated impairment losses, if any and adjusted for any re-measurement of the lease liability. The right-of-use assets is depreciated using the straightline method from the commencement date over the period of lease term.
The Company measures the lease liability at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at the commencement date of the lease. The lease payments are discounted using the incremental borrowing rate of the company.
For short-term and low value leases, the Company recognises the lease payments as an operating expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Q Research & Development
Research and development costs are recognized as expense in the period in which it is incurred. The company does not incur any development expenditure which are eligible for capitalisation under Para 57 ofIndAS 38.
Statement of cash flows is prepared in accordance with the indirect method prescribed in Ind AS-7 âStatement of cash flows â.

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value measurement is based on the presumption that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability takes place either:
- In the principal market for the asset or liability, or
- In the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the asset or liability.
The principal or the most advantageous market must be accessible by the company. The fair value of an asset or a liability is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability assuming that market participants act in their economic best interest. A fair value measurement of a non-financial asset takes into account a market participantâs ability to generate economic benefits by using the asset in its highest and best use or by selling it to another market participant that would use the asset in its highest and best use. The company uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available to measure fair value, maximizing the use of relevant observable inputs and minimizing the use of unobservable inputs.
