NOTE - 1 : MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

I. BASIS OF PREPARATION & PRESENTATION OF STANDALONE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

a) Statement of Compliance & Accounting Conventions:

The Standalone financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2026 have been prepared in accordance with the Indian Accounting Standards (hereinafter referred to as the "Ind AS") as notified under the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 (as amended) read with Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 (“the Act”) and rules and regulations notified thereunder to the extent applicable and the other relevant provisions of the Act, pronouncements of the regulatory bodies applicable to the company.

First Time Adoption:

The company has prepared opening Balance Sheet as per Ind AS as of April 1, 2024 (transition date) by recognising all assets and liabilities whose recognistion is required by Ind AS, derecognising items of assets or liabilities which are not permitted to be recognised by Ind AS, reclassifying items from Indian-GAAP to Ind AS as required, and applying Ind AS to measure the recognised assets and liabilities. The exemptions availed by the company under Ind AS 101 are as follows.

i. The company has adopted the carrying value determined in accordance with Indian-GAAP for all of its property plant & equipment and investment property as deemed cost of such assets at the transition date.

ii. The estimates as at April 1, 2024 and at March 31, 2025 are consistent with those made for the same dates in accordance with India-GAAP

The accounting policies are applied consistently over the years since adoption of Ind-AS as basis for preparation and disclosure of the Standalone financial statements except where a newly issued accounting standard is initially adopted or a revision to an existing accounting standard requires a change in the accounting policy hitherto in use.

As made effective from April 01, 2023, the company has adopted the amendments to Ind-AS vide Companies (Indian Accounting Standard) Amendment Rules, 2023 notifying amendment to existing Ind AS. These amendments to the extent relevant to the Company''s operation include amendment to Ind AS 1 “Presentation of Financial Statements” which requires the entities to disclose their material accounting policies rather than their significant accounting policies, Ind AS 8 “Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors” which has introduced a definition of ''accounting estimates'' and includes amendments to help entities distinguish changes in accounting policies from changes in accounting estimates. Further consequential amendments with respect to the concept of material accounting policies have also been made in "Ind AS 107 "Financial Instruments: Disclosures".

Apart from above there are other material amendments to various Ind-AS including Ind AS 101 "First-time Adoption of Indian Accounting Standards", Ind AS 103 "Business Combinations, Ind AS 109 "Financial Instruments " Ind AS 115 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”, Ind AS 12 “Income Taxes”. These amendments and other amendments have reduced the scope of the initial recognition exemption so that it does not apply to transactions that give rise to equal and offsetting temporary differences.

The Ministry of Corporate Affairs notified Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Amendment Rules, 2024 and Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Second Amendment Rules, 2024 on 12th August, 2024 and 9th September, 2024 notifying the following amendments:

Ind AS 116 - Leases:

The amendments clarify accounting treatment for a seller-lessee involved in sale and leaseback transactions.

Ind AS 117 - Insurance Contracts:

Ind AS 104: Insurance Contracts withdrawn with related changes to other Ind-AS.

The company has reviewed the amendments to Ind-AS as notified vide Companies (Indian Accounting Standard) Amendment Rules, 2023, Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Amendment Rules, 2024 and Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Amendment Rules, 2024 ascertained the revision in Ind-AS does not have any material impact on the reported amounts of assets, equity, liabilities, incomes, expenses, profits, losses and earning per share for the year.

The Standalone Financial Statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis except the following assets and liabilities which have been measured at fair values:

• Certain Financial Assets and Liabilities that are measured at Fair Value

• Defined Benefit Plans - Plan Assets

• Equity settled Share Based Payments

Items included in the Standalone financial statements are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the Company operates (''the functional currency''). The Standalone financial statements are presented in Indian rupee (INR), which is the Company''s functional and presentation currency.

b) Use of Estimates:

The preparation of Standalone financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances and such estimates and assumptions may affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, classification of assets and liabilities into non-current and current and disclosures relating to contingent liabilities as at the date of Standalone financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Although the Standalone financial statements have been prepared based on the management''s best knowledge of current events and procedures/actions, the actual results may differ on the final outcome of the matter/transaction to which the estimates relate.

Appropriate changes in estimates are recognized in the period in which the Company becomes aware of the changes in circumstances surrounding the estimates. Any revisions to accounting estimates are recognized prospectively in the period in which the estimate is revised and subsequent periods except for those changes requiring adjustment to prior period as per applicable Ind-AS.

Information about critical judgements, assumptions and estimation uncertainties that have a significant risk of resulting in a material adjustment is included in the following notes:

- estimates of useful lives and residual value of Property, Plant and Equipment, and other Intangible Assets;

- impairment test of non-financial assets: key assumptions underlying recoverable amounts including the recoverability of expenditure on intangible assets;

- measurement of defined benefit obligations: key actuarial assumptions;

- recognition of deferred tax assets;

- recognition and measurement of provisions and contingencies; key assumptions about the likelihood and magnitude of an outflow of resources, if any;

- Financial instruments

c) 1. Property, Plant and Equipment (PPE):

At the time of first time adoption on transition to Ind AS from accounting standards, the company has elected to use the exemption available under Ind AS 101 to continue the carrying value for all of its PPE as recognised in the financial statements as at the date of transition to Ind AS, measured as per the previous GAAP and use that as its deemed cost as at the date of transition (1st April, 2024).

The cost of an item of property, plant and equipment is recognized as an asset if, and only if:

(a) it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the company; and

(b) the cost of the item can be measured reliably.

The acquisition of property, plant and equipment, directly increasing the future economic benefits of any particular existing item of property, plant and equipment, which are necessary for the Company to obtain the future economic benefits from its other assets, are recognized as Property, Plant and Equipment.

The Freehold land is carried/stated at historical cost/cost of acquisition. The other items of Property, Plant and Equipment are stated at cost of acquisition/construction (less Accumulated Depreciation and Impairment, if any). The cost of Property, Plant and Equipment comprises of their purchase prices including freight, duties, taxes or levies, directly attributable to cost of bringing the assets to their working conditions for their intended use. The Company capitalises its Property, Plant and Equipment at a value net of GST/Other Tax Credits received/receivable during the year in respect of eligible item of Property, Plant and Equipment. Subsequent costs are included in the carrying amount of respective Property, Plant and Equipment or recognized as separate assets as appropriate, only if such costs increase the future economic benefits from the existing items beyond their previously assessed standard of performance and cost of such items can be measured reliably.

Machinery spares that meet the definition of Property, Plant & Equipment are capitalised and depreciated over the useful life of the principal item of an asset. All other repair and maintenance costs, including regular servicing, are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss as incurred.

The items of Property, Plant and Equipment that are under construction/erection or not fully acquired and therefore not available for productive use are classified as “Capital Work in Progress” under Property, Plant and Equipment and have been/will be transferred to respective item of Property, Plant and Equipment on completion of the construction/erection/acquisition activities.

Advances given to acquire property, plant and equipment are stated as non-current assets and subsequently transferred to respective Property, Plant & and Equipment and CWIP on acquisition of related assets. The items of PPE have not been revalued during the year.

The carrying amounts of items of Property, Plant & Equipment have been eliminated from the books of account on disposal and the profits/(losses) arising from such disposal are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss of the period.

The investment property is initially recognized at cost and subsequently carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any.

Subsequent expenditures on such assets are capitalized to the asset''s carrying value only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the expenditure will flow to the company or such cost are incurred to comply with regulatory requirements or have been incurred in connection with continued use of such assets and cost of such items can be measured reliably. All other repairs and maintenance cost are expensed as and when incurred.

4. Intangible Assets & Intangible Assets Under Development:

The Intangible Assets of Accounting Software, Server Software, Website Development etc. resulting in future economic benefits have been recognised at their cost of acquisition and subsequently are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. On the basis of the availability of these assets for their intended use, relevant contractual agreements and technological changes that may affect the usefulness of these assets, the useful lives of these assets have been assumed to be of five years from the date of their acquisition.

The estimated useful life is reviewed annually by the management of the company.

5. Depreciation & Amortization:

The Depreciation on tangible items of Property, Plant and Equipment is provided on Written Down Value(WDV)

method for the period of acquisition/construction i.e. from the period from which such assets were available for their intended use on pro-rata basis on the basis of useful life of each of the items of Property, Plant and Equipment as per Schedule II of the Companies Act, 2013 and in the manner specified in Schedule II of the Companies Act, 2013 except freehold land and other related development on that land.

The intangible assets have been amortized on pro-rata basis over period of their estimated useful lives on straight line basis i.e. @ 20.00% assuming useful life of five years.

d) Inventories:

The company trades in fruits, vegetables and other perishable items which are purchased from the market as well as farmers. At times the trading inventories are stored/located at various locations including with farmers, traders, warehouse, cold storage etc. The fruits, vegetables and other perishable items due to their nature, storage facilities and other affecting factors are subject to environmental and other effects and hence the quality and quantity of such items may change from time to time. The valuation of inventories of fruits, vegetables and other perishable items have been carried out by the management of the company keeping view all such factors and after physically verifying the stock located at various locations and have been valued at cost or market value whichever is lower based on the assessment of physical conditions of various items by the management as to their quality and quantity.

The items of packing materials have been valued at cost or market value whichever is lower.

e) Revenue Recognition:

Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable from the customers/parties net of returns, rebates, goods and service tax as applicable and discount to the customers and amounts collected on behalf of third parties. The Revenue is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Company and the revenue can be measured reliably, regardless of when the payment is being made.

Sale of Goods:

The revenue from the sale of goods is recognized at transaction price when the company had transferred the property in Goods to the buyer for a price and all significant risks and rewards of ownership had been transferred to the buyer and no significant uncertainty existed as to the amount of consideration that would be derived from such sale. The recognition event is usually the dispatch of goods to the buyer such that the Company retains no effective control over the goods dispatched.

Provision of Services:

Income from service charges of manpower supply services, handling charges, packing services, storage and warehousing and other services are accounted on completion of services for the respective client as evidenced by the issue of invoices for the respective service to that client and are accounted as per the date on invoice.

Interest Income:

Income from investments and deposits, where appropriate, is taken into revenue in full on declaration or accrual on time basis and tax deducted at source thereon is treated as advance tax. The interest income from a financial asset is recognized when it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the company and the amount interest income can be measured reliably.

Subsidy Income:

Subsidy incomes available to the Company are accounted on the basis:

i) Where there is reasonable assurance that the company will comply with the Conditions attached to them,

ii) where such benefits have been earned by the company and it is reasonably certain that the ultimate collection will be made and

iii) nature of the grant i.e. whether in the nature of capital contribution or in the form of revenue.

f) Foreign Currency Transactions

The Company''s Standalone financial statements have been prepared and presented in Indian Rupees (Rs.) which is also its functional currency.

The transactions in foreign currency initially have been recorded using the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of transactions. The differences arising on the settlement/restatement of the foreign currency denominated Financial Assets/Liabilities into Indian Rupees have been recognized as expenses/income (net) of the year and carried to the statement of profit and loss.

The monetary items denominated in foreign currencies outstanding as at the end of the reporting period, are translated at the exchange rates prevailing as at the end of the reporting period.

The company did not have any transaction in foreign currency in the current financial year as well as in the preceding financial year.

g) Investments in Subsidiary & Associates

Investments in subsidiaries and associates have recognised at cost as per Ind AS 27 “Separate Financial Statements” initially and subsequently carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses measured at the end of each year, if any.

h) Employee Benefits:

1. Short Term Obligations:

Short term employee benefits like wages, salaries, incentives and other monetary and non-monetary benefits are recognized in the period during which services are rendered by the employees and are recognized at the value at which liabilities have been settled or are expected to be settled.

2. Post-Employment and Other Long -Term Employee Benefits:

2.1 Contribution to Provident Fund & ESIC:

The Company''s contribution to the Provident Fund and ESIC is remitted as per the applicable provisions relating to the Employee Provident Fund Scheme and ESIC and such contributions are charged to the Statement of Profit & Loss of the period to which contributions relates.

2.2 Defined Benefit Plan for Gratuity:

The Company operates defined benefit plans for Gratuity. The Liabilities in respect of retirement benefits to eligible employees in the form of Gratuity are provided on the basis of Actuarial Valuation as per Ind AS-19 “Employee Benefits”. The employee''s gratuity fund scheme is managed by IndiaFirst Life Insurance Company Limited. The cost of providing defined benefits plans in the form of gratuity is determined using the Projected Unit Credit Method with actuarial valuation being carried out at each reporting date.

The remeasurements, comprising of actuarial gains and losses, the effect of the asset ceiling (excluding amounts included in net interest on the net defined benefit liability) and the return on plan assets (excluding amounts included in net interest on the net defined benefit liability), are recognised immediately in the balance sheet with a corresponding debit or credit to retained earnings through OCI in the period in which they occur. The remeasurements are not reclassified to profit or loss in subsequent periods.

The changes in net defined benefit obligations in the form of services costs comprising of current service cost, past service cost, net interest cost and gains/(losses) on curtailments and settlements are recognized in the Statement of Profit & Loss.

2.3 Defined Benefits Plan-Compensated Absences:

Compensated absences which are not expected to occur within twelve months after the end of the period in which the employee renders the related services are recognised as a liability as long term provisions. The compensated absences are recognised as expense of the current year in which right of compensated absences accrues at a value as per the policy of the company which the company is expected to compensate in future on compliance of the terms and conditions of employment by the employees.

3. Share-Based Payment Arrangements:

Equity-settled share-based payments to employees are measured at the fair value of the equity instruments at the grant date.

The fair value determined at the grant date of the equity-settled share-based payments is expensed on a straight-line basis over the vesting period, based on the Company''s estimate of equity instruments that will eventually vest, with a corresponding increase in equity. At the end of each reporting period, the Company revises its estimate of the number of equity instruments expected to vest. The impact of the revision of the original estimates, if any, is recognised in statement of profit and loss such that the cumulative expense reflects the revised estimate, with a corresponding adjustment to the equity-settled employee benefits reserve.

i) Borrowing Costs

The Borrowing costs are interest and ancillary costs incurred in connection with the arrangement of borrowings. The borrowing costs are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss in the period in which they are incurred.

j) Operating Segment

The Company identifies operating segments on the basis of dominant source, nature of risks and returns and the internal organization. The operating segments are the segments for which separate financial information is available and for which operating profit/loss amounts are evaluated regularly by the Managing Director/Chief Executive Officer who is Company''s chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance.

The dominant source of revenue and income of the company is:

i. From activities of wholesale trading of Fruits and Vegetable and supply chain management related thereto which constitutes almost 90.00% of operating revenues of the company, majority of operational revenue and operating assets.

ii. From activities of provision of services covering warehousing, handling, packing, clearing and forwarding, Ripening of Fruits, Cold Storage Management & Manpower Solutions combined revenue whereof constitutes remaining operating revenue of the company.

The activities within the operating segment of provision of services are distinct and thus each segment of operating service is different in respect of system of providing services and risk and return associated with provision of services. Each service segment has distinct customer base.

The revenue from each of services including both sales to external customers and intersegment sales or transfers, if any is less than ten percent of the combined revenue, internal and external, of all operating segments.

The absolute amount of profit or loss from provision of each class of services is less than ten per cent, in absolute amount, of the combined profits of all operating segments that did not report a loss.

The assets held within each of the service class is less than ten per cent or less of the combined assets of all operating segment.

Further, the geographical/regulatory environment in which the company operates do not materially differ considering the political and economic environment, the type of customers, the nature of business, assets employed and the risk and return associated in respect of each of the geographical area.

Considering the above threshold limits of each operating segment i.e. business and each class of service segment and area of operations, the disclosure requirements pursuant to Ind AS-108“ Operating Segments” are not applicable.

k) Taxes On Income:

1. Current Tax:

The provision for current tax is made as per the provisions of the Income Tax Act, 1961.

Taxes on income have been determined based on the tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the financial statements date. The current tax liabilities and assets are measured at the amounts expected to be paid or to be recovered from the taxation authorities as at the financial statements date.

The current tax liabilities and assets are offset where the Company has a legally enforceable right to offset and intends either to settle on a net basis or to realise the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.

The current income tax relating to items recognized outside profit or loss is recognized either in the Other Comprehensive Income or in Other Equity Directly.

2. Deferred Tax:

Deferred tax is provided on temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities as per the provisions of the Income Tax Act, 1961 and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes as at the financial statements date.

Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for all taxable temporary timing differences. Deferred tax assets are recognized for all deductible taxable temporary timing differences, the carry forward of unused tax losses and unused tax credits to the extent to which future taxable profits are expected to be available against which the deductible temporary differences and the carry forward of unused tax losses and unused tax credits can be utilized/set-off.

Deferred tax is calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period when the liability is settled or the asset is realised based on the tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantially enacted by the end of the reporting period.

l) Impairment of Tangible & Intangible Assets:

Assets that are subject to depreciation or amortization are reviewed for impairment. Company assesses, at each reporting date, whether there is an indication that an asset may have been impaired. If any indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the company estimates the asset''s recoverable amount. An asset''s recoverable amount is the higher of an asset''s or cash-generating unit''s (CGU) fair value less costs of disposal and its value in use. Recoverable amount is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets or groups of assets.

Impairment loss is recognized when the carrying amount of an asset exceeds recoverable amount.

m) Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets

The Company recognises a provision when it has a present obligation as a result of a past event that probably requires an outflow of the Company''s resources embodying economic benefits at the time of settlement and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. The provisions are measured at the best estimate of the amounts required to settle the present obligation as at the financial statement date and are not discounted to its present value.

Contingent liabilities are disclosed when there is a possible obligation arising from past events, the existence of which will be confirmed only on the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more future uncertain events not wholly or substantially within the control of the Company or a present obligation that arises from the past events where it is either not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation or a reliable estimate of the amount cannot be made.

When demand notices are issued by the Government Authorities and demand is disputed by the company and it is probable that the company will not be required to settle/pay such demands then these are classified as disputed obligations under contingent liabilities.

Contingent Assets, if any, are not recognised in the financial statements. If it becomes certain that inflow of economic benefit will arise then such asset and the relative income are recognised in financial statements.

n) Current/Non-Current Classifications:

The Company presents assets and liabilities in the balance sheet on the basis of their classifications into current and non-current.

Assets:

An asset is treated as current when it is:

• Expected to be realised or intended to be sold or consumed in normal operating cycle

• Held primarily for the purpose of trading

• Expected to be realised within twelve months after the reporting period

• Cash or cash equivalent unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period.

All other assets are classified as non-current.

Liabilities:

A liability is treated as current when it is:

• Expected to be settled in normal operating cycle

• Held primarily for the purpose of trading

• Due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period

• No unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period. All other liabilities are classified as non-current.

o) Financial Instruments, Financial Assets, Financial Liabilities and Equity Instruments

The financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the relevant instrument and are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities (other than financial assets and financial liabilities measured at fair value through profit or loss) are added to or deducted from the fair value on initial recognition of financial assets or financial liabilities.

A. Financial Assets:

Initial Recognition:

Financial Assets include Investments, Trade Receivables, Security Deposits, Cash and Cash Equivalents and eligible current and non-current assets. The financial assets are initially recognized at the transaction price when the Company becomes party to contractual obligations. The transaction price includes transaction costs unless the asset is being value at fair value through the Statement of Profit and Loss.

Subsequent Measurement:

The subsequent measurement of financial assets depends upon the initial classification of financial assets. For the purpose of subsequent measurement, financial assets are classified as under:

i. Financial Assets At Amortized Cost where the financial assets are held solely for collection of cash flows and contractual terms of the assets give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on principal amount outstanding.

ii. Fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI), where the financial assets are held not only for realization of principal and interest but also from the sale of such assets. Such assets are subsequently

measured at fair value, with unrealised gains and losses arising from changes in the fair value being recognised in other comprehensive income.

iii. Fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL), where the assets are managed in accordance with an approved investment strategy that triggers purchase and sale decisions based on the fair value of such assets. Such assets are subsequently measured at fair value, with unrealised gains and losses arising from changes in the fair value being recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss in the period in which they arise.

Trade Receivables, Security Deposits, Cash and Cash Equivalents, Investments in Equity where reliable data for fair value is not available and eligible current and non-current assets are classified for measurement at amortized cost.

Investments in equity instruments are classified for measurement at FVTPL.

Impairment:

If the recoverable amount of an asset (or cash-generating unit/Fixed Assets) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset (or cash-generating unit) is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognized immediately in profit or loss, unless the relevant asset is carried at a re-valued amount if any, in which case the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation decrease.

Financial assets, other than those at Fair Value through Profit and Loss (FVTPL), are assessed for indicators of impairment at the end of each reporting period. Financial assets are considered to be impaired when there is objective evidence that, as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the financial asset, the estimated future cash flows of the investment have been affected.

The company recognises impairment loss on trade receivables using expected credit loss model.

B. Financial Liabilities:

Financial liabilities, which include long and short-term loans and borrowings, trade payables, eligible current and non-current liabilities. The borrowings, trade payables and other financial liabilities are initially recognised at the value of the respective contractual obligations. They are subsequently measured at amortised cost. Financial liabilities are derecognised when the liability is extinguished, that is, when the contractual obligation is discharged, cancelled and on expiry of the terms.

p) Fair Value Measurement:

The Company measures financial instruments, such as, derivatives at fair value at each financial statement 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 non-financial asset takes into account a market participant''s 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.

All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the financial statements are categorised within the fair value hierarchy, described as follows, based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole:

Level 1 — Quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

Level 2 — Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is directly or indirectly observable.

Level 3 — Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is unobservable.

For assets and liabilities that are recognised in the financial statements on a recurring basis, the Company determines whether transfers have occurred between levels in the hierarchy by re-assessing categorisation (based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole) at the end of each reporting period.

For the purpose of fair value disclosures, the Company has determined classes of assets and liabilities on the basis of the nature, characteristics and risks of the asset or liability and the level of the fair value hierarchy as explained above.

q) Cash and Cash Equivalents-For the Purpose of Cash Flow Statements:

Cash and cash equivalent in the balance sheet comprise cash at banks and in hand and short-term deposits with an original maturity of three months or less or deposits with bank held as security against the supply of goods, which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.

r) Operating Cycle:

Based on the activities of the company and normal time between incurring of liabilities and their settlement in cash or cash equivalents and acquisition/right to assets and their realization in cash or cash equivalents, the company has considered its operating cycle as 12 months for the purpose of classification of its liabilities and assets as current and non-current.

s) Prior Period Errors:

Prior period errors are in the form of omission of certain items in the Standalone financial statements of prior periods which were not available when the Standalone financial statements were approved for issue and which could reasonably be expected to have been obtained and taken into account in the preparation and presentation of Standalone financial statement of prior period.

The Prior period errors have been corrected retrospectively by restating the respective amounts of the prior period presented in which the error occurred. If the errors have occurred before the earliest prior period presented, the errors have been corrected by restating the opening balances of assets, liabilities and equity of the earliest prior period presented.

t) Events Subsequent to Financial Statements Period:

Events after the reporting period are those events, both favourable and unfavourable that have occurred between the end of the reported financial statements year and the date when financial statements are approved for issue by the Board of Directors of the company.

Events after the reporting period can be identified as those that provide evidence of conditions that existed as at the end of the financial year i.e. adjusting events after the financial year end and those are indicative of conditions that arose after the financial year end i.e. non-adjusting events after the financial year end.

The company adjusts the amounts of assets, liabilities, incomes and expenses recognised in the financial statements of the reporting period to reflect the effects of adjusting events to the respective assets, liabilities, incomes and expenses of the reporting period.

The non-adjusting events are not recognised in the financial statement of the reporting period but the nature of event and an estimate of its financial effect are disclosed in the notes of accounts.

u) Government Grants:

Government grants are recognised in the period where it is determined that there is reasonable assurance that the grant will be received and all attached conditions relating to grant will be complied with.

The revenue grant relating to or arising from business operations is recognised as operating income in the Statement of Profit and Loss of the period in which is determined that it is reasonably certain that grant will be received and all attached conditions relating to grant will be complied with.

v) Earnings Per Share:

The Company presents basic and diluted earnings per share details for its ordinary shares. Basic earning per share is calculated by dividing the net profit after tax for the year attributable to the ordinary shareholders of the company by weighted number of ordinary shares outstanding for applicable period during the year.

Diluted earnings per share is calculated considering the effect of dilution if any to ordinary share during the year.

w) Expected Credit Loss:

The measurement of expected credit loss on financial assets is based on the evaluation of collectability and the management''s judgement regarding recoverability. A considerable amount of judgement is required in assessing the ultimate realization of the trade receivables having regard to the past collection history of each party, ongoing dealings with the parties, and assessment of their ability to pay the debts.

x) Materiality

The Management of the company uses judgement in deciding whether individual items or groups of items are material

in the financial statements. Materiality is judged by reference to the nature or magnitude or both of the items. The deciding factor is whether omitting or misstating or obscuring an information could individually or in combination with other related information influence decisions that primary users make on the basis of the financial statements. Management also uses judgement of materiality for determining the compliance requirement of the Ind AS. Further, the company may also be required to present separately immaterial items when required by law.

y) Leases:

The determination of whether an arrangement is (or contains) a lease is based on the substance of the arrangement at the inception of the lease. A contract is, or contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a definite period of time in exchange for consideration. To assess whether a contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset, the Company assesses whether:

(i) the contract involves the use of identified asset;

(ii) the Company has substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of the asset through the period of lease and

(iii) the Company has right to direct the use of the asset.

The Company as Lessee:

The Company assesses whether a contract is or contains a lease, at inception of the contract. The Company recognises a right-of-use asset and a corresponding lease liability with respect to all lease arrangements in which it is the lessee, except for short-term leases (defined as leases with a lease term of 12 months or less) and leases of low values. For these leases, the Company recognises the lease payments as an operating expense on a straightline basis over the term of the lease unless another systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern in which economic benefits from the leased assets are consumed.

The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at the commencement date, discounted by using the rate implicit in the lease. If this rate cannot be readily determined, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate.

Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability comprise:

• Fixed lease payments (including in-substance fixed payments), less any lease incentives receivable;

• Variable lease payments that depend on an index or rate, initially measured using the index or rate at the commencement date;

• The amount expected to be payable by the lessee under residual value guarantees;

• The exercise price of purchase options, if the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise the options; and

• Payments of penalties for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the exercise of an option to terminate the lease.

The lease liability is presented as a part of other financial liabilities statement of financial position.

The lease liability is subsequently measured by increasing the carrying amount to reflect interest on the lease liability (using the effective interest method) and by reducing the carrying amount to reflect the lease payments made.

The Company re-measures the lease liability (and makes a corresponding adjustment to the related right-of-use asset) whenever:

• The lease term has changed or there is a significant event or change in circumstances resulting in a change in the assessment of exercise of a purchase option, in which case the lease liability is remeasured by discounting the revised lease payments using a revised discount rate.

• A lease contract is modified and the lease modification is not accounted for as a separate lease, in which case the lease liability is remeasured based on the lease term of the modified lease by discounting the revised lease payments using a revised discount rate at the effective date of the modification.

The right-of-use assets comprise the initial measurement of the corresponding lease liability, lease payments made at or before the commencement day, less any lease incentives received and any initial direct costs. They are subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses.

Right-of-use assets are depreciated over the shorter period of lease term and useful life of the underlying asset.

z) Non-current assets held for sale:

The Company classifies non-current assets as held for sale if their carrying amounts will be recovered principally through a sale rather than through continuing use. This condition is regarded as met only when the asset is available for immediate sale or disposal in its present condition subject only to terms that are usual and customary for sales or disposal of such asset and the sale or disposal is highly probable. Also, such assets are classified as held for sale only if the management expects to complete the sale within one year from the date of classification.
