Mar 31, 2025

2. MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

This note provides a list of the material accounting policies adopted in the preparation of
these financial statements. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years
presented, unless otherwise stated.

2.1 Basis of preparation of financial statements

(i) Compliance with Ind AS

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Indian Accounting
Standards (hereinafter referred to as the ''Ind AS'') as notified under Section 133 of the
Companies Act, 2013 ("Act) read with the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules,
2015 as amended and other relevant provisions of the Act.

These financial statements have been prepared and presented under the historical cost
convention, on the accrual basis of accounting except for certain financial assets and financial
liabilities (including Derivative Instrument) that are measured at fair values and Defined
benefit planned assets measured at fair value at the end of each reporting period, as stated
in the accounting policies set out below. The accounting policies have been applied
consistently over all the periods presented in these financial statements.

Application of New Accounting Pronouncements

The company has applied the following Ind AS Pronouncements pursuance to issuance of the
Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Amendment Rules, 2023 with effect from 1^st April
2023.

The effect is described below: -

Ind AS 1-Presentation of Financial Statements: - The amendment requires disclosure of
material accounting policies instead of significant accounting policies. This amendment aims
to help entities provide accounting policy disclosures that are more useful by replacing the
requirement to disclose ''significant'' accounting policies with a requirement to disclose
''material'' accounting policies and adding guidance on how entities apply the concept of
materiality in making decisions about accounting policy disclosures. In the Financial
statements, the disclosure of accounting policies has been accordingly modified. The impact
of such modifications to the accounting policies is insignificant.

Ind AS 8- Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors -The amendment
has defined accounting estimate as well as clarified the distinction between changes in
accounting estimates, accounting policies and the correction of errors. There is no impact of
the amendment on the Financial Statements.

Ind AS 12-Income taxes -The amendment narrows the scope of initial recognition exception,
so that it no longer applies to transactions that give rise to equal taxable and deductible
temporary differences such as leases and decommissioning liabilities. There is no impact of
the amendment on the financial statements.

(ii) Use of estimates and judgments

The estimates and judgments used in the preparation of the financial statements are
continuously evaluated by the Company and are based on historical experience and various
other assumptions and factors (including expectations of future events) that the Company
believes to be reasonable under the existing circumstances. Differences between actual
results and estimates are recognized in the period in which the results are
known/materialized.

The said estimates are based on the facts and events, that existed as at the reporting date,
or that occurred after that date but provide additional evidence about conditions existing as
at the reporting date.

(iii) Current / Non Current Classification

All assets and liabilities have been classified as current or noncurrent as per the Company''s
normal operating cycle and other criteria set out in the Schedule III to the Companies Act,
2013. Based on the nature of products and the time between acquisition of assets for
processing and their realization in cash and cash equivalents, the Company has ascertained
its operating cycle as 12 months for the purpose of current/non-current classification of
assets and liabilities.

(iv) Rounding of amounts

All amounts disclosed in the financial statements and notes have been rounded off to the
nearest lacs as per the requirement of Schedule III, unless otherwise stated.

Freehold land is carried at historical cost. All the other items of Property, Plant and Equipment
are stated at cost, net of recoverable taxes, less accumulated depreciation and accumulated
impairment losses, if any.

The cost of Property, Plant and Equipment comprises of its purchase price or construction
cost, any costs directly attributable to bringing the asset into the location and condition
necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management, the initial
estimate of any decommissioning obligation, if any, and borrowing costs for assets that
necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use. Subsequent
costs are included in the asset''s carrying amount only when 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.

Cost of assets not ready for intended use, as on the Balance Sheet date, is shown as capital
work in progress. Capital work-in-progress is stated at cost. All the direct expenditure related
to implementation including incidental expenditure incurred during the period of
implementation of a project, till it is commissioned, is accounted as Capital work-in-progress
(CWIP) and after commissioning the same is transferred / allocated to the respective item of
property, plant and equipment. Advances given towards acquisition of fixed assets
outstanding at each Balance Sheet date are disclosed as Other Non-Current Assets.

Pre-operating costs, are expensed to the Statement of Profit and Loss as and when incurred.

If significant parts of an item of Property, Plant and Equipment have different useful lives and
cost, then they are accounted for as separate items (major components) of property, plant
and equipment.

Any gain or loss on disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment is recognized in
Statement of Profit and Loss.

Derecognition:

The carrying amount of an item of property, plant and equipment is derecognized on disposal
or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. The gain or loss
arising from the Derecognition of an item of property, plant and equipment is measured as
the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the item and
is recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss when the item is derecognized.

Recognition and measurement

Intangible assets are initially measured at cost. Intangible assets are recognised when it is
probable that the future economic benefits that are attributable to the assets will flow to the
Company and the cost of the asset can be measured reliably.

Such intangible assets are subsequently measured at cost less accumulated amortization and
any accumulated impairment losses. The cost of an intangible asset comprises of its purchase
price, including any import duties and other taxes (other than those subsequently recoverable
from the taxing authorities), and any directly attributable expenditure on making the asset
ready for its intended use.

Derecognition

The carrying amount of an intangible asset is derecognized on disposal or when no future
economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. The gain or loss arising from the
Derecognition of an intangible asset is measured as the difference between the net disposal
proceeds and the carrying amount of the intangible asset and is recognized in the Statement
of Profit and Loss when the asset is derecognized.

2.4 Depreciation method, estimated useful lives and residual value

The estimate of the useful life of the assets has been assessed based on technical advice which
considered the nature of the asset, the usage of the asset, expected physical wear and tear,
the operating conditions of the asset, anticipated technological changes, manufacturers
warranties and maintenance support, etc.

Depreciation is provided on a pro-rata basis on the straight-line method over the useful lives
as prescribed under Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013 with the exception of the
following:

The management believes that these estimated useful lives reflect fair approximation of the
period over which the assets are likely to be used.

The residual values, useful lives and methods of depreciation of property, plant and
equipment are reviewed at each financial year end and adjusted prospectively, if required.

Intangible assets are amortized over the estimated period of benefit, not exceeding five years.

Assets that have an indefinite useful life, for example goodwill, are not subject to
amortization and are tested for impairment annually and whenever there is an indication that
the asset may be impaired.

Assets that are subject to depreciation are reviewed for impairment, whenever events or
changes in circumstances indicate that carrying amount may not be recoverable. Such
circumstances include, though are not limited to, significant or sustained decline in revenues
or earnings and material adverse changes in the economic environment.

An impairment loss is recognized whenever the carrying amount of an asset or its cash
generating unit (CGU) exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount of an asset
is the greater of its fair value less cost to sell and value in use. To calculate value in use, the
estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount
rate that reflects current market rates and the risk specific to the asset. For an asset that does
not generate largely independent cash inflows, the recoverable amount is determined for the
CGU to which the asset belongs. Fair value less cost to sell is the best estimate of the amount
obtainable from the sale of an asset in an arm''s length transaction between knowledgeable,
willing parties, less the cost of disposal.

Impairment losses, if any, are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss and included in
depreciation and amortization expense. Impairment losses are reversed in the Statement of
Profit and Loss only to the extent that the asset''s carrying amount does not exceed the
carrying amount that would have been determined if no impairment loss had previously been
recognized.

2.6 Lease

Assets taken on lease:

At inception of a contract, the Company assesses whether a contract is or contains a lease. A
contract is, or contains, a lease if a contract conveys the right to control the use of an
identified asset for a 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:

- the contract conveys the right to use an identified asset;

- the Company has the right to obtain substantially all the economic benefits from use of
the asset throughout the period of use; and

- the Company has the right to direct the use of the identified asset.

At the date of commencement of a lease, the Company recognizes a right-of-use asset ("ROU
assets") and a corresponding lease liability for all leases, except for leases with a term of
twelve months or less (short-term leases) and low value leases. For short-term and low value
leases, the Company recognizes the lease payments as an operating expense on a straight¬
line basis over the term of the lease.

Certain lease arrangements includes the options to extend or terminate the lease before the
end of the lease term. Lease payments to be made under such reasonably certain extension
options are included in the measurement of ROU assets and lease liabilities.

Lease liability is measured by discounting the lease payments using the interest rate implicit
in the lease or, if not readily determinable, using the incremental borrowing rates in the
country of domicile of the leases. Lease liabilities are remeasured with a corresponding
adjustment to the related right of use asset if the Company changes its assessment of
whether it will exercise an extension or a termination option.

Lease payments are allocated between principal and finance cost. The finance cost is charged
to statement of profit and loss over the lease period so as to produce a constant periodic rate
of interest on the remaining balance of the liability for each period.

The ROU assets are initially recognized at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the
lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or prior to the commencement date
of the lease plus any initial direct costs less any lease incentives and restoration costs.

They are subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment
losses, if any. ROU assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the asset''s useful life
or the lease whichever is shorter.

Impairment of ROU assets is in accordance with the Company''s accounting policy for
impairment of tangible and intangible assets.

Short-term leases and leases of low-value assets:

The Company has elected not to recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for short¬
term leases that have a lease term of 12 months or less and leases of low-value assets. The
Company recognizes the lease payments associated with these leases as an expense on a
straight-line basis over the lease term.

2.7 Financial instruments

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

Initial recognition and measurement

A financial asset is recognized in the balance sheet when the Company becomes party to the
contractual provisions of the instrument. At initial recognition, the Company measures a
financial asset at its fair value plus or minus, in the case of a financial asset not at fair value
through statement of profit and loss, transaction costs that are directly attributable to the
acquisition or issue of the financial asset.

For purpose of subsequent measurement, financial assets are classified into:

a. Financial assets measured at amortized cost;

b. Financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI);

c. Financial assets measured at fair value through statement of profit and loss (FVTPL)

The Company classifies its financial assets in the above mentioned categories based on:

a. The Company''s business model for managing the financial assets;

b. The contractual cash flows characteristics of the financial asset.

Financial assets measured at amortized cost

This category generally applies to trade and other receivables.

A financial asset is measured at amortized cost if both of the following conditions are met:

a. The financial asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold financial
assets in order to collect contractual cash flows;

b. The contractual terms of the financial assets give rise on specified dates to cash flows
that are solely payments of principal and interest (SPPI) on the principal amount
outstanding.

Financial assets are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the Effective Interest Rate
(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 statement of profit and loss. The losses arising from impairment are
recognized in the statement of profit and loss.

Financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI)

A financial asset is measured at fair value through other comprehensive income if both of the
following conditions are met:

a. The financial asset is held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both

collecting the contractual cash flows and selling financial assets;

b. The asset''s contractual cash flows represent SPPI.

Financial assets measured at fair value through the statement of profit and loss (FVTPL)

FVTPL is a residual category. Any financial asset, which does not meet the criteria for
categorization as at amortized cost or as FVTOCI, is classified as at FVTPL. In addition, the
Company may elect to designate a financial asset, which otherwise meets amortized cost or
FVTOCI criteria, as at FVTPL. Such financial assets are measured at fair value with all changes

in fair value, including interest income and dividend income if any, recognised as ''other
income'' in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

Equity Instruments

All the equity instruments in scope of Ind AS 109 are measured at fair value. Equity
instruments which are held for trading are classified as at FVTPL

If the company decides to classify an equity instrument as at FVTOCI, then all the fair value
changes on the instrument, excluding dividends, are recognized in the OCI. There is no
recycling of the amounts from OCI to statement of profit and loss, even on sale of investment.
However, the company may transfer the cumulative gain or loss within equity. Equity
instruments included within FVTPL category are measured at fair value with all the changes
recognized in statement of profit and loss.

Derecognition

A financial asset (or, where applicable, a part of a financial asset or part of a group of similar
financial assets) is derecognized (i.e. removed from the Company''s balance sheet) when:

a. The contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset have expired, or

b. The Company has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from the asset or has assumed

an obligation to pay the received cash flows in full without material delay to a third party
under a ''pass-through'' arrangement; and either

c. The Company has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, or

d. The Company has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards

of the asset, but has transferred control of the asset.

Impairment of financial assets

In accordance with Ind AS 109, the Company assesses impairment based on expected credit
loss (ECL) model to the following:

a. Financial assets measured at amortized cost;

b. Financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income
Expected credit losses are measured through a loss allowance at an amount equal to:

a. The 12-months expected credit losses (expected credit losses that result from those
default events on the financial instrument that are possible within 12 months after the
reporting date); or

b. Full time expected credit losses (expected credit losses that result from all possible
default events over the life of the financial instrument).

The Company follows simplified approach for recognition of impairment loss allowance on
trade receivables, under the simplified approach; the Company uses a provision matrix to
determine impairment loss allowance on the portfolio of trade receivables. The provision
matrix is based on its historically observed default rates over the expected life of the trade
receivable which is adjusted for management''s estimates. At every reporting date, the
historical observed default rates are updated and changes in the forward-looking estimates
are analyzed.

Financial Liabilities

Initial recognition and measurement

Financial liabilities are classified, at initial recognition, as financial liabilities at fair value
through statement of profit and loss, loans and borrowings, payables, or as derivatives
designated as hedging instruments in an effective hedge, as appropriate.

All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value and, in case of loans and borrowings
and payables, net of directly attributable transaction costs.

The Company''s financial liabilities include trade and other payables and short term
borrowings.

Subsequent measurement

a. Financial liabilities measured at amortized cost;

b. Financial liabilities subsequently measured at fair value through statement of profit
and loss

Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss include financial liabilities held for trading
and financial liabilities designated upon initial recognition as at fair value through profit or
loss. Financial liabilities are classified as held for trading if they are incurred for the purpose
of repurchasing in the near term. Gains or losses on liabilities held for trading are recognized
in the statement of profit and loss.

Financial liabilities designated upon initial recognition at fair value through statement of profit
and loss are designated as such at the initial date of recognition, and only if the criteria in Ind
AS 109 are satisfied.

Trade and other payables

These amounts represent liability for goods and services provided to the Company prior to
the end of financial year which are unpaid. Trade and other payables are presented as current
liabilities unless payment is not due within 12 months after the reporting period. They are
recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the
effective interest method.

Fair Value

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:

(i) In the principal market for the asset or liability, or

(ii) In the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the asset or
liability

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 best economic interest.

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 categorized 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.

2.8 Derivative financial instruments and Hedge Accounting

The company''s activities expose it to the financial risk of the changes in foreign exchange and
interest rates. The use of financial derivative is governed by the company''s risk management
policies approved by the board of the directors. The company has taken cross currency
interest rate swaps for its floating rate foreign currency borrowings to hedge foreign currency
risk and interest rate risk. The company has taken forward contracts to hedge future probable
forecasted export sales.

The company documents at the inception of the hedging transaction the economic
relationship between hedging instruments and hedged items including whether the hedging
instrument is expected to offset changes in cash flows of hedged items. The company
documents its risk management objective and strategy for undertaking various hedge
transactions at the inception of each hedge relationship.

The full fair value of a hedging derivative is classified as a non-current asset or liability when
the remaining maturity of the hedged item is more than 12 months; it is classified as a current

asset or liability when the remaining maturity of the hedged item is less than 12 months.
Trading derivatives are also classified as a current asset or liability when expected to be
realized /settled within 12 months of the balance sheet date.

2.9 Inventories

Inventories are valued at cost or net realizable value (NRV), whichever is lower. The basis of
determining cost for various categories of inventories is as follows:

a. Raw materials, Finished goods, Packing materials, stores and spares and
consumables are carried at the lower of cost and net realizable value after
providing for obsolescence, if any. The comparison of cost and NRV is made on
an item-by item basis.

b. In determining the cost of raw materials, packing materials, consumables, stores
and spares, First- in-First-Out (FIFO) method is used. Cost of inventory comprises
all costs of purchase, duties, taxes (other than those subsequently recoverable
from tax authorities) and all other costs incurred in bringing the inventory to
their present location and condition.

c. Cost of finished goods includes the cost of raw materials, packing materials, an
appropriate share of fixed and variable production overheads, excise duty as
applicable and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present
location and condition.

2.10 Employee benefit

Short-term employee benefits

Employee benefits payable wholly within twelve months of receiving employee services
are classified as short-term employee benefits. These benefits include salaries and wages,
bonus, short term compensated absences, ex-gratia, etc. The undiscounted amount of
short-term employee benefits to be paid in exchange for employee services is recognized
as an expense as the related service is rendered by employees.

Compensated Absences

Accumulated leave, which is expected to be utilized within the next 12 months, is treated
as short-term employee benefit. The Company measures the expected cost of such
absences as the additional amount that it expects to pay as a result of the unused
entitlement that has accumulated at the reporting date.

Post-Employment Benefits:

(i) Defined Contribution plans:

Defined contribution plans are employee state insurance scheme and
Government administered provident funds scheme for all applicable employees
and superannuation scheme for eligible employees.

Recognition and measurement of defined contribution plans:

The Company recognizes contribution payable to a defined contribution plan as an
expense in the Statement of Profit and Loss when the employees render services to the
Company during the reporting period. If the contributions payable for services received
from employees before the reporting date exceed the contributions already paid, the
deficit payable is recognized as a liability after deducting the contribution already paid.
If the contribution already paid exceeds the contribution due for services received before
the reporting date, the excess is recognized as an asset to the extent that the
prepayment will lead to, for example, a reduction in future payments or a cash refund.

(ii) Defined Benefit Plans

Provident Fund scheme:

Defined Contribution Plans such as Provident Fund etc., are charged to the Statement of
Profit and Loss as incurred. The contributions are made to a government administered
Provident Fund scheme towards which the Company has no further obligations beyond its
monthly contributions.

Defined benefit Gratuity plan:

The Company has funded its gratuity liability with Life Insurance Corporation of India (LIC)
under the Group Gratuity Cash Accumulation Plan.

Recognition and measurement of Defined Benefit plans:

The cost of providing defined benefits is determined using the Projected Unit Credit method
with actuarial valuations being carried out at each reporting date. The defined benefit
obligations recognized in the Balance Sheet represent the present value of the defined
benefit obligations as reduced by the fair value of plan assets, if applicable. Any defined
benefit asset (negative defined benefit obligations resulting from this calculation) is
recognized representing the present value of available refunds and reductions in future
contributions to the plan.

All expenses represented by current service cost, past service cost, if any, and net interest on
the defined benefit liability / (asset) are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Remeasurements of the net defined benefit liability / (asset) comprising actuarial gains and
losses and the return on the plan assets (excluding amounts included in net interest on the
net defined benefit liability/asset), are recognized in Other Comprehensive Income. Such
remeasurements are not reclassified to the Statement of Profit and Loss in the subsequent
periods.

The Company presents the above liability/(asset) as current and non-current in the Balance
Sheet as per actuarial valuation by the independent actuary; however, the entire liability
towards gratuity is considered as current as the Company will contribute this amount to the
LIC within the next twelve months.

2.11 Borrowing Cost

The Company is capitalizing borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or
construction of qualifying assets. Qualifying assets are assets that necessarily take a
substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use or sale. For borrowing cost
capitalization, the capital cost of a particular project is identified against a borrowing in terms
of period of construction and the borrowing cost for the relevant period is added to the capital
cost till the particular project is capitalised and thereafter the interest is charged to the
statement of profit and loss. All other borrowing costs are recognized as expense in the period
in which they are incurred and charged to the statement of profit and loss.

2.12 Foreign Currency Translation

Functional and presentation currency

The financial statements are presented in Indian rupee (INR), which is Company''s functional
and presentation currency.

Initial Recognition:

On initial recognition, transactions in foreign currencies entered into by the Company are
recorded in the functional currency (i.e. Indian Rupees), by applying to the foreign currency
amount, the spot exchange rate prevailing on the date of the transaction. Exchange
differences arising on foreign exchange transactions settled during the year are recognized
in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

Transactions and balances:

Transactions in foreign currencies are recognised at the prevailing exchange rates on the
transaction dates. Realized gains and losses on settlement of foreign currency transactions
are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

Monetary foreign currency assets and liabilities at the year-end are translated at the year-
end exchange rates and the resultant exchange differences are recognised in the Statement
of Profit and Loss.

Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are
translated using the exchange rates at the dates of the initial transactions. Non-monetary
items measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at
the date when the fair value is determined.

2.13 Revenue Recognition

Revenue from contracts with customers is recognized on transfer of control of promised
goods or services to a customer at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the
Company is expected to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services.

Revenue towards satisfaction of a performance obligation is measured at the amount of
transaction price (net of variable consideration) allocated to that performance obligation.
The transaction price of goods sold and services rendered is net of variable consideration on
account of various discounts and schemes offered by the Company as part of the contract.
This variable consideration is estimated based on the expected value of outflow. Revenue
(net of variable consideration) is recognized only to the extent that it is highly probable that
the amount will not be subject to significant reversal when uncertainty relating to its
recognition is resolved.

Sale of products:

Revenue from sale of products is recognized when the control on the goods have been
transferred to the customer. The performance obligation in case of sale of product is satisfied
at a point in time i.e., when the material is shipped to the customer or on delivery to the
customer, as may be specified in the contract.

Revenue from services:

Revenue from services is recognized over time by measuring progress towards satisfaction of
performance obligation for the services rendered as per contractually agreed terms.

Interest and dividends:

Interest income is recognized using effective interest method. Dividend income is recognized
when the right to receive dividend is established.

Other Operating Revenue -Export Incentive:

Export Incentives are recognized as income when right to receive credit as per the terms of
the scheme is established in respect of the exports made and when there is no significant
uncertainty regarding the ultimate collection of the relevant export proceeds.

2.14 Taxation

Income taxes

Tax expense is the aggregate amount included in the determination of profit or loss for the
period in respect of current tax and deferred tax.

Cu rrent tax:

Current tax is the amount of income taxes payable in respect of taxable profit for a period.
Taxable profit differs from ''profit before tax'' as reported in the Statement of Profit and Loss
because of items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and items
that are never taxable or deductible under the Income Tax Act, 1961.

Current tax is measured using tax rates that have been enacted by the end of reporting period
for the amounts expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities.

Deferred tax:

Deferred tax is recognized on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets
and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the
computation of taxable profit under Income Tax Act, 1961.

Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognized for all taxable temporary differences.
However, in case of temporary differences that arise from initial recognition of assets or
liabilities in a transaction that affect neither the taxable profit nor the accounting profit,
deferred tax liabilities are not recognized. Also, for temporary differences if any that may
arise from initial recognition of goodwill, deferred tax liabilities are not recognized.

Deferred tax assets are generally recognized for all deductible temporary differences to the
extent it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which those deductible
temporary difference can be utilized. In case of temporary differences that arise from initial
recognition of assets or liabilities in a transaction that affect neither the taxable profit nor the
accounting profit, deferred tax assets are not recognized.

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period
and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be
available to allow the benefits of part or all of such deferred tax assets to be utilized.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that have been enacted or
substantively enacted by the Balance Sheet date and are expected to apply to taxable income
in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.

Presentation of current and deferred tax:

Current and deferred tax are recognized as income or an expense in the Statement of Profit
and Loss, except when they relate to items that are recognized in Other Comprehensive
Income, in which case, the current and deferred tax income/ expense are recognized in Other
Comprehensive Income.

The Company offsets current tax assets and current tax liabilities, where it has a legally
enforceable right to set off the recognized amounts and where it intends either to settle on
a net basis, or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. In case of deferred
tax assets and deferred tax liabilities, the same are offset if the Company has a legally
enforceable right to set off corresponding current tax assets against current tax liabilities and

the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same
tax authority on the Company.

2. MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

This note provides a list of the material accounting policies adopted in the preparation of these financial statements. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated.

2.1 Basis of preparation of financial statements

(i) Compliance with Ind AS

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Indian Accounting Standards (hereinafter referred to as the ‘Ind AS’) as notified under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 (“Act) read with the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 as amended and other relevant provisions of the Act.

These financial statements have been prepared and presented under the historical cost convention, on the accrual basis of accounting except for certain financial assets and financial liabilities (including Derivative Instrument) that are measured at fair values and Defined benefit planned assets measured at fair value at the end of each reporting period, as stated in the accounting policies set out below. The accounting policies have been applied consistently over all the periods presented in these financial statements.

Application of New Accounting Pronouncements

The company has applied the following Ind AS Pronouncements pursuance to issuance of the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Amendment Rules, 2023 with effect from 1st April 2023.

The effect is described below:-

Ind AS 1-Presentation of Financial Statements:- The amendment requires disclosure of material accounting policies instead of significant accounting policies. This amendment aims to help entities provide accounting policy disclosures that are more useful by replacing the requirement to disclose ‘significant’ accounting policies with a requirement to disclose ‘material’ accounting policies and adding guidance on how entities apply the concept of materiality in making decisions about accounting policy disclosures. In the Financial statements, the disclosure of accounting policies has been accordingly modified. The impact of such modifications to the accounting policies is insignificant.

Ind AS 8- Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors:- The amendment has defined accounting estimate as well as clarified the distinction between changes in accounting estimates, accounting policies and the correction of errors. There is no impact of the amendment on the Financial Statements.

Ind AS 12-Income taxes:- The amendment narrows the scope of initial recognition exception, so that it no longer applies to transactions that give rise to equal taxable and deductible temporary differences such as leases and decommissioning liabilities. There is no impact of the amendment on the financial statements.

(ii) Use of estimates and judgments

The estimates and judgments used in the preparation of the financial statements are

continuously evaluated by the Company and are based on historical experience and various other assumptions and factors (including expectations of future events) that the Company believes to be reasonable under the existing circumstances. Differences between actual results and estimates are recognized in the period in which the results are known/materialized.

The said estimates are based on the facts and events, that existed as at the reporting date, or that occurred after that date but provide additional evidence about conditions existing as at the reporting date.

(iii) Current / Non Current Classification

All assets and liabilities have been classified as current or noncurrent as per the Company’s normal operating cycle and other criteria set out in the Schedule III to the Companies Act, 2013. Based on the nature of products and the time between acquisition of assets for processing and their realization in cash and cash equivalents, the Company has ascertained its operating cycle as 12 months for the purpose of current/non-current classification of assets and liabilities.

(iv) Rounding of amounts

All amounts disclosed in the financial statements and notes have been rounded off to the nearest lacs as per the requirement of Schedule III, unless otherwise stated.

2.2 Property Plant and Equipment Recognition and measurement

Freehold land is carried at historical cost. All the other items of Property, Plant and Equipment are stated at cost, net of recoverable taxes, less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any.

The cost of Property, Plant and Equipment comprises of its purchase price or construction cost, any costs directly attributable to bringing the asset into the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management, the initial estimate of any decommissioning obligation, if any, and borrowing costs for assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use. Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount only when 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.

Cost of assets not ready for intended use, as on the Balance Sheet date, is shown as capital work in progress. Capital work-in-progress is stated at cost. All the direct expenditure related to implementation including incidental expenditure incurred during the period of implementation of a project, till it is commissioned, is accounted as Capital work-in-progress (CWIP) and after commissioning the same is transferred / allocated to the respective item of property, plant and equipment. Advances given towards acquisition of fixed assets outstanding at each Balance Sheet date are disclosed as Other Non-Current Assets.

Pre-operating costs, are expensed to the Statement of Profit and Loss as and when incurred.

If significant parts of an item of Property, Plant and Equipment have different useful lives and cost, then they are accounted for as separate items (major components) of property, plant and equipment.

Any gain or loss on disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment is recognized in Statement of Profit and Loss.

Derecognition:

The carrying amount of an item of property, plant and equipment is derecognized on disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. The gain or loss arising from the Derecognition of an item of property, plant and equipment is measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the item and is recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss when the item is derecognized.

2.3 Intangible asset Recognition and measurement

Intangible assets are initially measured at cost. Intangible assets are recognised when it is probable that the future economic benefits that are attributable to the assets will flow to the Company and the cost of the asset can be measured reliably.

Such intangible assets are subsequently measured at cost less accumulated amortization and any accumulated impairment losses. The cost of an intangible asset comprises of its purchase price, including any import duties and other taxes (other than those subsequently recoverable from the taxing authorities), and any directly attributable expenditure on making the asset ready for its intended use

Derecognition

The carrying amount of an intangible asset is derecognized on disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. The gain or loss arising from the Derecognition of an intangible asset is measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the intangible asset and is recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss when the asset is derecognized.

2.4 Depreciation method, estimated useful lives and residual value

The estimate of the useful life of the assets has been assessed based on technical advice which considered the nature of the asset, the usage of the asset, expected physical wear and tear, the operating conditions of the asset, anticipated technological changes, manufacturers warranties and maintenance support, etc.

Depreciation is provided on a pro-rata basis on the straight-line method over the useful lives as prescribed under Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013 with the exception of the following:

Asset Description	Useful Life
Office Building with RCC frame structure	30
Factory building	20

The management believes that these estimated useful lives reflect fair approximation of the period over which the assets are likely to be used.

The residual values, useful lives and methods of depreciation of property, plant and equipment are reviewed at each financial year end and adjusted prospectively, if required.

Intangible assets are amortized over the estimated period of benefit, not exceeding five years.

2.5 Impairment

Assets that have an indefinite useful life, for example goodwill, are not subject to amortization and are tested for impairment annually and whenever there is an indication that the asset may be impaired.

Assets that are subject to depreciation are reviewed for impairment, whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that carrying amount may not be recoverable. Such circumstances include, though are not limited to, significant or sustained decline in revenues or earnings and material adverse changes in the economic environment.

An impairment loss is recognized whenever the carrying amount of an asset or its cash generating unit (CGU) exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount of an asset is the greater of its fair value less cost to sell and value in use. To calculate value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market rates and the risk specific to the asset. For an asset that does not generate largely independent cash inflows, the recoverable amount is determined for the CGU to which the asset belongs. Fair value less cost to sell is the best estimate of the amount obtainable from the sale of an asset in an arm’s length transaction between knowledgeable, willing parties, less the cost of disposal.

Impairment losses, if any, are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss and included in depreciation and amortization expense. Impairment losses are reversed in the Statement of Profit and Loss only to the extent that the asset’s carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined if no impairment loss had previously been recognized.

2.6 Lease

Assets taken on lease:

At inception of a contract, the Company assesses whether a contract is or contains a lease. A contract is, or contains, a lease if a contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a 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:

- the contract conveys the right to use an identified asset;

- the Company has the right to obtain substantially all the economic benefits from use of the asset throughout the period of use; and

- the Company has the right to direct the use of the identified asset.

At the date of commencement of a lease, the Company recognizes a right-of-use asset (“ROU assets”) and a corresponding lease liability for all leases, except for leases with a term of twelve months or less (short-term leases) and low value leases. For short-term and low value leases, the Company recognizes the lease payments as an operating expense on a straightline basis over the term of the lease.

Certain lease arrangements includes the options to extend or terminate the lease before the end of the lease term. Lease payments to be made under such reasonably certain extension options are included in the measurement of ROU assets and lease liabilities.

Lease liability is measured by discounting the lease payments using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if not readily determinable, using the incremental borrowing rates in the country of domicile of the leases. Lease liabilities are remeasured with a corresponding adjustment to the related right of use asset if the Company changes its assessment of whether it will exercise an extension or a termination option.

Lease payments are allocated between principal and finance cost. The finance cost is charged to statement of profit and loss over the lease period so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability for each period.

The ROU assets are initially recognized at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or prior to the commencement date of the lease plus any initial direct costs less any lease incentives and restoration costs.

They are subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, if any. ROU assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the asset’s useful life or the lease whichever is shorter.

Impairment of ROU assets is in accordance with the Company’s accounting policy for impairment of tangible and intangible assets.

Short-term leases and leases of low-value assets:

The Company has elected not to recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for shortterm leases that have a lease term of 12 months or less and leases of low-value assets. The Company recognizes the lease payments associated with these leases as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

2.7 Financial instruments

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

Initial recognition and measurement

A financial asset is recognized in the balance sheet when the Company becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. At initial recognition, the Company measures a financial asset at its fair value plus or minus, in the case of a financial asset not at fair value through statement of profit and loss, transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of the financial asset.

Subsequent measurement

For purpose of subsequent measurement, financial assets are classified into:

a. Financial assets measured at amortized cost;

b. Financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI);

c. Financial assets measured at fair value through statement of profit and loss (FVTPL) The Company classifies its financial assets in the above mentioned categories based on:

a. The Company’s business model for managing the financial assets;

b. The contractual cash flows characteristics of the financial asset.

Financial assets measured at amortized cost

This category generally applies to trade and other receivables.

A financial asset is measured at amortized cost if both of the following conditions are met:

a. The financial asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows;

b. The contractual terms of the financial assets give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest (SPPI) on the principal amount outstanding.

Financial assets are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the Effective Interest Rate (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 statement of profit and loss. The losses arising from impairment are recognized in the statement of profit and loss.

Financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI)

A financial asset is measured at fair value through other comprehensive income if both of the following conditions are met:

a. The financial asset is held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting the contractual cash flows and selling financial assets;

b. The asset’s contractual cash flows represent SPPI.

Financial assets measured at fair value through the statement of profit and loss (FVTPL)

FVTPL is a residual category. Any financial asset, which does not meet the criteria for categorization as at amortized cost or as FVTOCI, is classified as at FVTPL. In addition, the Company may elect to designate a financial asset, which otherwise meets amortized cost or FVTOCI criteria, as at FVTPL. Such financial assets are measured at fair value with all changes in fair value, including interest income and dividend income if any, recognised as ‘other income’ in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

Equity Instruments

All the equity instruments in scope of Ind AS 109 are measured at fair value. Equity instruments which are held for trading are classified as at FVTPL.

If the company decides to classify an equity instrument as at FVTOCI, then all the fair value changes on the instrument, excluding dividends, are recognized in the OCI. There is no recycling of the amounts from OCI to statement of profit and loss, even on sale of investment. However, the company may transfer the cumulative gain or loss within equity. Equity instruments included within FVTPL category are measured at fair value with all the changes recognized in statement of profit and loss.

Derecognition

A financial asset (or, where applicable, a part of a financial asset or part of a group of similar financial assets) is derecognized (i.e. removed from the Company''s balance sheet) when:

a. The contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset have expired, or

b. The Company has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from the asset or has

assumed an obligation to pay the received cash flows in full without material delay to a third party under a ‘pass-through‘ arrangement; and either

c. The Company has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, or

d. The Company has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, but has transferred control of the asset.

Impairment of financial assets

In accordance with Ind AS 109, the Company assesses impairment based on expected credit loss (ECL) model to the following:

a. Financial assets measured at amortized cost;

b. Financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income

Expected credit losses are measured through a loss allowance at an amount equal to:

a. The 12-months expected credit losses (expected credit losses that result from those default events on the financial instrument that are possible within 12 months after the reporting date); or

b. Full time expected credit losses (expected credit losses that result from all possible default events over the life of the financial instrument).

The Company follows simplified approach for recognition of impairment loss allowance on trade receivables, under the simplified approach; the Company uses a provision matrix to determine impairment loss allowance on the portfolio of trade receivables. The provision matrix is based on its historically observed default rates over the expected life of the trade receivable which is adjusted for management’s estimates. At every reporting date, the historical observed default rates are updated and changes in the forward-looking estimates are analyzed.

Financial Liabilities

Initial recognition and measurement

Financial liabilities are classified, at initial recognition, as financial liabilities at fair value through statement of profit and loss, loans and borrowings, payables, or as derivatives designated as hedging instruments in an effective hedge, as appropriate.

All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value and, in case of loans and borrowings and payables, net of directly attributable transaction costs.

The Company’s financial liabilities include trade and other payables and short term borrowings.

Subsequent measurement

a. Financial liabilities measured at amortized cost;

b. Financial liabilities subsequently measured at fair value through statement of profit and loss

Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss include financial liabilities held for trading and financial liabilities designated upon initial recognition as at fair value through profit or loss. Financial liabilities are classified as held for trading if they are incurred for the purpose of repurchasing in the near term. Gains or losses on liabilities held for trading are recognised in the statement of profit and loss.

Financial liabilities designated upon initial recognition at fair value through statement of profit and loss are designated as such at the initial date of recognition, and only if the criteria in Ind AS 109 are satisfied.

Trade and other payables

These amounts represent liability for goods and services provided to the Company prior to the end of financial year which are unpaid. Trade and other payables are presented as current liabilities unless payment is not due within 12 months after the reporting period. They are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

Fair Value

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:

(i) In the principal market for the asset or liability, or

(ii) In the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the asset or liability

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 best economic interest.

The Company uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which suficient 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 categorized 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.

2.8 Derivative financial instruments and Hedge Accounting

The company’s activities expose it to the financial risk of the changes in foreign exchange and interest rates. The use of financial derivative is governed by the company’s risk management policies approved by the board of the directors. The company has taken cross currency interest rate swaps for its floating rate foreign currency borrowings to hedge foreign currency risk and interest rate risk. The company has taken forward contracts to hedge future probable forecasted export sales.

The company documents at the inception of the hedging transaction the economic relationship between hedging instruments and hedged items including whether the hedging instrument is expected to offset changes in cash flows of hedged items. The company documents its risk management objective and strategy for undertaking various hedge transactions at the inception of each hedge relationship.

The full fair value of a hedging derivative is classified as a non-current asset or liability when the remaining maturity of the hedged item is more than 12 months; it is classified as a current asset or liability when the remaining maturity of the hedged item is less than 12 months. Trading derivatives are also classified as a current asset or liability when expected to be realized /settled within 12 months of the balance sheet date.

2.9 Inventories

Inventories are valued at cost or net realizable value (NRV), whichever is lower. The basis of determining cost for various categories of inventories is as follows:

a. Raw materials, Finished goods, Packing materials, stores and spares and consumables are carried at the lower of cost and net realizable value after providing for obsolescence, if any. The comparison of cost and NRV is made on an item-by item basis.

b. In determining the cost of raw materials, packing materials, consumables, stores and spares, First- in-First-Out (FIFO) method is used. Cost of inventory comprises all costs of purchase, duties, taxes (other than those subsequently recoverable from tax authorities) and all other costs incurred in bringing the inventory to their present location and condition.

c. Cost of finished goods includes the cost of raw materials, packing materials, an appropriate share of fixed and variable production overheads, excise duty as applicable and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition.

2.10 Employee benefit Short-term employee benefits

Employee benefits payable wholly within twelve months of receiving employee services are classified as short-term employee benefits. These benefits include salaries and wages, bonus, short term compensated absences, ex-gratia, etc. The undiscounted amount of shortterm employee benefits to be paid in exchange for employee services is recognised as an expense as the related service is rendered by employees.

Compensated Absences

Accumulated leave, which is expected to be utilized within the next 12 months, is treated as short-term employee benefit. The Company measures the expected cost of such absences as the additional amount that it expects to pay as a result of the unused entitlement that has accumulated at the reporting date.

Post-Employment Benefits:

(i) Defined Contribution plans:

Defined contribution plans are employee state insurance scheme and Government administered provident funds scheme for all applicable employees and superannuation scheme for eligible employees.

Recognition and measurement of defined contribution plans:

The Company recognizes contribution payable to a defined contribution plan as an expense in the Statement of Profit and Loss when the employees render services to the Company during the reporting period. If the contributions payable for services received from employees before the reporting date exceed the contributions already paid, the deficit payable is recognized as a liability after deducting the contribution already paid. If the contribution already paid exceeds the contribution due for services received before the reporting date, the excess is recognized as an asset to the extent that the prepayment will lead to, for example, a reduction in future payments or a cash refund.

(ii) Defined Benefit Plans Provident Fund scheme:

Defined Contribution Plans such as Provident Fund etc., are charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss as incurred. The contributions are made to a government administered Provident Fund scheme towards which the Company has no further obligations beyond its monthly contributions.

Defined benefit Gratuity plan:

The Company has funded its gratuity liability with Life Insurance Corporation of India (LIC) under the Group Gratuity Cash Accumulation Plan.

Recognition and measurement of Defined Benefit plans:

The cost of providing defined benefits is determined using the Projected Unit Credit method with actuarial valuations being carried out at each reporting date. The defined benefit obligations recognized in the Balance Sheet represent the present value of the defined benefit obligations as reduced by the fair value of plan assets, if applicable. Any defined benefit asset (negative defined benefit obligations resulting from this calculation) is recognized representing the present value of available refunds and reductions in future contributions to the plan.

All expenses represented by current service cost, past service cost, if any, and net interest on the defined benefit liability / (asset) are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss. Remeasurements of the net defined benefit liability / (asset) comprising actuarial gains and losses and the return on the plan assets (excluding amounts included in net interest on the net defined benefit liability/asset), are recognized in Other Comprehensive Income. Such remeasurements are not reclassified to the Statement of Profit and Loss in the subsequent periods.

The Company presents the above liability/(asset) as current and non-current in the Balance Sheet as per actuarial valuation by the independent actuary; however, the entire liability towards gratuity is considered as current as the Company will contribute this amount to the LIC within the next twelve months.

2.11 Borrowing Cost

The Company is capitalizing borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or construction of qualifying assets. Qualifying assets are assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use or sale. For borrowing cost capitalization, the capital cost of a particular project is identified against a borrowing in terms of period of construction and the borrowing cost for the relevant period is added to the capital cost till the particular project is capitalised and thereafter the interest is charged to the statement of profit and loss. All other borrowing costs are recognized as expense in the period in which they are incurred and charged to the statement of profit and loss.

2.12 Foreign Currency Translation Functional and presentation currency

The financial statements are presented in Indian rupee (INR), which is Company’s functional and presentation currency.

Initial Recognition:

On initial recognition, transactions in foreign currencies entered into by the Company are recorded in the functional currency (i.e. Indian Rupees), by applying to the foreign currency amount, the spot exchange rate prevailing on the date of the transaction. Exchange differences arising on foreign exchange transactions settled during the year are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

Transactions and balances:

Transactions in foreign currencies are recognised at the prevailing exchange rates on the transaction dates. Realized gains and losses on settlement of foreign currency transactions are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

Monetary foreign currency assets and liabilities at the year-end are translated at the year-end exchange rates and the resultant exchange differences are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the dates of the initial transactions. Non-monetary items measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value is determined.

2.13 Revenue Recognition

Revenue from contracts with customers is recognized on transfer of control of promised goods or services to a customer at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company is expected to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services.

Revenue towards satisfaction of a performance obligation is measured at the amount of transaction price (net of variable consideration) allocated to that performance obligation. The transaction price of goods sold and services rendered is net of variable consideration on account of various discounts and schemes offered by the Company as part of the contract. This variable consideration is estimated based on the expected value of outflow. Revenue (net of variable consideration) is recognized only to the extent that it is highly probable that the amount will not be subject to significant reversal when uncertainty relating to its recognition is resolved.

Sale of products:

Revenue from sale of products is recognized when the control on the goods have been transferred to the customer. The performance obligation in case of sale of product is satisfied at a point in time i.e., when the material is shipped to the customer or on delivery to the customer, as may be specified in the contract.

Revenue from services:

Revenue from services is recognized over time by measuring progress towards satisfaction of performance obligation for the services rendered as per contractually agreed terms.

Interest and dividends:

Interest income is recognized using effective interest method. Dividend income is recognized when the right to receive dividend is established.

Other Operating Revenue -Export Incentive:

Export Incentives are recognized as income when right to receive credit as per the terms of the scheme is established in respect of the exports made and when there is no significant uncertainty regarding the ultimate collection of the relevant export proceeds.

2.14 Taxation Income taxes

Tax expense is the aggregate amount included in the determination of profit or loss for the period in respect of current tax and deferred tax.

Current tax:

Current tax is the amount of income taxes payable in respect of taxable profit for a period.

Taxable profit differs from ‘profit before tax’ as reported in the Statement of Profit and Loss because of items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and items that are never taxable or deductible under the Income Tax Act, 1961.

Current tax is measured using tax rates that have been enacted by the end of reporting period for the amounts expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities.

Deferred tax:

Deferred tax is recognized on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit under Income Tax Act, 1961.

Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognized for all taxable temporary differences. However, in case of temporary differences that arise from initial recognition of assets or liabilities in a transaction that affect neither the taxable profit nor the accounting profit, deferred tax liabilities are not recognized. Also, for temporary differences if any that may arise from initial recognition of goodwill, deferred tax liabilities are not recognized.

Deferred tax assets are generally recognized for all deductible temporary differences to the extent it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary difference can be utilized. In case of temporary differences that arise from initial recognition of assets or liabilities in a transaction that affect neither the taxable profit nor the accounting profit, deferred tax assets are not recognized.

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow the benefits of part or all of such deferred tax assets to be utilized.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the Balance Sheet date and are expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.

Presentation of current and deferred tax:

Current and deferred tax are recognized as income or an expense in the Statement of Profit and Loss, except when they relate to items that are recognized in Other Comprehensive Income, in which case, the current and deferred tax income/ expense are recognized in Other Comprehensive Income.

The Company offsets current tax assets and current tax liabilities, where it has a legally enforceable right to set off the recognized amounts and where it intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. In case of deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities, the same are offset if the Company has a legally enforceable right to set off corresponding current tax assets against current tax liabilities and the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority on the Company.

2.15 Provisions and Contingent Liabilities

The Company recognizes provisions when a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event exists and it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle such obligation and the amount of such obligation can be reliably estimated.

If the effect of time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pretax rate that reflects, when appropriate, the risks specific to the liability. When discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognized as a finance cost.

A disclosure for a contingent liability is made when there is a possible obligation or a present obligation that may, but probably will not require an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits or the amount of such obligation cannot be measured reliably. When there is a

possible obligation or a present obligation in respect of which likelihood of outflow of resources embodying economic benefits is remote, no provision or disclosure is made.

2.16 Research and Development Expenditure

Expenditure on research is recognised as an expense when it is incurred. Expenditure on development which does not meet the criteria for recognition as an intangible asset is recognised as an expense when it is incurred.

Items of property, plant and equipment and acquired Intangible Assets utilized for Research and Development are capitalised and depreciated in accordance with the policies stated for Property, Plant and Equipment and Intangible Assets.

2.17 Earnings per Share

Basic EPS is computed by dividing net profit after taxes for the year by weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the financial year, adjusted for bonus share elements in equity shares issued during the year and excluding treasure shares, if any.

Diluted earnings per share adjusts the figures used in the determination of basic earnings per share to take into account the after income tax effect of interest and other financing costs associated with dilutive potential equity shares and the weighted average number of additional equity shares that would have been outstanding assuming the conversion of all dilutive potential equity shares.

2.18 Discontinued Operations :

A discontinued operation is a component of an entity that either has been disposed of, or is classified as held for sale, and:

- represents a separate major line of business or geographical area of operations,

- is part of a single co-ordinated plan to dispose of a separate major line of business or geographical area of operations.

Discontinued operations are excluded from the results of continuing operations and are presented as profit or loss before / after tax from discontinued operations in the statement of profit and loss.

Additional disclosures are provided in note 44. All other notes to the financial statements mainly include amounts for continuing operation, unless otherwise mentioned.

2.19 Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash and deposits with banks. The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a remaining maturity at the date of purchase of three months or less and that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash to be cash equivalents.

2.20 Statement of Cash Flows

Cash fows are reported using the indirect method, whereby profit before tax is adjusted for the effects of transactions of a non-cash nature, any deferrals or accruals of past or future operating cash receipts or payments and item of income or expenses associated with investing or financing cash flows. The cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities of the Company are segregated.

2.21 Key Accounting Estimates and Judgments

The preparation of the Company’s financial statements requires the management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities, and the accompanying disclosures, and the disclosure of contingent liabilities. Uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets or liabilities affected in future periods.

3. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND ASSUMPTIONS:

The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year, are described below:

Income taxes

The Company’s tax jurisdiction is India. Significant judgments are involved in estimating budgeted profits for the purpose of paying advance tax, determining the provision for income taxes, including amount expected to be paid/recovered for uncertain tax positions (Refer Note 32).

Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, Plant and Equipment represent a significant proportion of the asset base of the Company. The charge in respect of periodic depreciation is derived after determining an estimate of an asset’s expected useful life and the expected residual value at the end of its life. The useful lives and residual values of Company’s assets are determined by the management at the time the asset is acquired and reviewed periodically, including at each financial year end. The lives are based on historical experience with similar assets as well as anticipation of future events, which may impact their life, such as changes in technical or commercial obsolescence arising from changes or improvements in production or from a change in market demand of the product or service output of the asset.

Defined Benefit Obligation

The costs of providing gratuity and other post-employment benefits are charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss in accordance with Ind AS 19 ‘Employee benefits’ over the period during which benefit is derived from the employees’ services. The costs are assessed on the basis of assumptions selected by the management. These assumptions include salary escalation rate, discount rates, expected rate of return on assets and mortality rates. The same is disclosed in Note 35, ‘Employee benefits’.

Fair value measurement of Financial Instruments

When the fair values of financials assets and financial liabilities recorded in the Balance Sheet cannot be measured based on quoted prices in active markets, their fair value is measured using valuation techniques, including the discounted cash flow model, which involve various judgments and assumptions.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

2.1 Basis of preparation of financial statements

(i) Compliance with Ind AS

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Indian Accounting Standards (hereinafter referred to as the ''Ind AS’) as notified under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 (“Act) read with the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 as amended and other relevant provisions of the Act.

These financial statements have been prepared and presented under the historical cost convention, on the accrual basis of accounting except for certain financial assets and financial liabilities (including Derivative Instrument) that are measured at fair values and Defined benefit planned assets measured at fair valueat the end of each reporting period, as stated in the accounting policies set out below. The accounting policies have been applied consistently over all the periods presented in these financial statements.

(ii) Use of estimates and judgments

The estimates and judgments used in the preparation of the financial statements are continuously evaluated by the Company and are based on historical experience and various other assumptions and factors (including expectations of future events) that the Company believes to be reasonable under the existing circumstances. Differences between actual results and estimates are recognized in the period in which the results are known/materialized.

The said estimates are based on the facts and events, that existed as at the reporting date, or that occurred after that date but provide additional evidence about conditions existing as at the reporting date.

(iii) Current / Non Current Classification

All assets and liabilities have been classified as current or noncurrent as per the Company’s normal operating cycle and other criteria set out in the Schedule III to the Companies Act, 2013. Based onthe nature of products and the time between acquisition of assets for processing and their realization in cash and cash equivalents, the Company has ascertained its operating cycle as 12 months for the purpose of current/non-current classification of assets and liabilities.

(iv) Rounding of amounts

All amounts disclosed in the financial statements and notes have been rounded off to the nearest lacs as per the requirement of Schedule III, unless otherwise stated.

2.2 Property Plant and Equipment Recognition and measurement

Freehold land is carried at historical cost. All the other items of Property, Plant and Equipment are stated at cost, net of recoverable taxes, less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any.

The cost of Property, Plant and Equipment comprises of its purchase price or construction cost,

any costs directly attributable to bringing the asset into the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management, the initial estimate of any decommissioning obligation, if any, and borrowing costs for assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use. Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount only when it is probable that future economic beneuts associated with the item will uow to the company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably.

Capital work-in-progress is stated at cost. All the direct expenditure related to implementation including incidental expenditure incurred during the period of implementation of a project, till it is commissioned, is accounted as Capital work-in-progress (CWIP) and after commissioning the same is transferred / allocated to the respective item of property, plant and equipment.

Pre-operating costs, are expensed to the Statement of Profit and Loss as and when incurred.

If significant parts of an item of Property, Plant and Equipment have different useful lives and cost, then they are accounted for as separate items (major components) of property, plant and equipment.

Any gain or loss on disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment is recognized in Statement of Profit and Loss.

2.3 Intangible asset Recognition and measurement

Intangible assets are initially measured at cost. Intangible assets are recognised when it is probable that the future economic benefits that are attributable to the assets will flow to the Company and the cost of the asset can be measured reliably.

Such intangible assets are subsequently measured at cost less accumulated amortization and any accumulated impairment losses. The cost of an intangible asset comprises of its purchase price, including any import duties and other taxes (other than those subsequently recoverable from the taxing authorities), and any directly attributable expenditure on making the asset ready for its intended use.

2.4 Depreciation method, estimated useful lives and residual value

The estimate of the useful life of the assets has been assessed based on technical advice which considered the nature of the asset, the usage of the asset, expected physical wear and tear, the operating conditions of the asset, anticipated technological changes, manufacturers warranties and maintenance support, etc.

Depreciation is provided on a pro-rata basis on the straight-line method over the useful lives as prescribed under Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013 with the exception of the following:

The management believes that these estimated useful lives reflect fair approximation of the period over which the assets are likely to be used.

The residual values, useful lives and methods of depreciation of property, plant and equipment are reviewed at each financial year end and adjusted prospectively, if required.

Intangible assets are amortized over the estimated period of benefit, not exceeding five years.

2.5 Impairment

Assets that have an indefinite useful life, for example goodwill, are not subject to amortization and are tested for impairment annually and whenever there is an indication that the asset may be impaired.

Assets that are subject to depreciation are reviewed for impairment, whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that carrying amount may not be recoverable. Such circumstances include, though are not limited to, significant or sustained decline in revenues or earnings and material adverse changes in the economic environment.

An impairment loss is recognized whenever the carrying amount of an asset or its cash generating unit (CGU) exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount of an asset is the greater of its fair value less cost to sell and value in use. To calculate value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market rates and the risk specific to the asset. For an asset that does not generate largely independent cash inflows, the recoverable amount is determined for the CGU to which the asset belongs. Fair value less cost to sell is the best estimate of the amount obtainable from the sale of an asset in an arm’s length transaction between knowledgeable, willing parties, less the cost of disposal.

Impairment losses, if any, are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss and included in depreciation and amortization expense. Impairment losses are reversed in the Statement of Profit and Loss only to the extent that the asset’s carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined if no impairment loss had previously been recognized

2.6 Lease

Assets taken on lease:

At inception of a contract, the Company assesses whether a contract is or contains a lease. A contract is, or contains, a lease if a contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a 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:

- the contract conveys the right to use an identified asset;

- the Company has the right to obtain substantially all the economic benefits from use of the asset throughout the period of use; and

- the Company has the right to direct the use of the identified asset.

At the date of commencement of a lease, the Company recognizes a right-of-use asset (“ROU assets”) and a corresponding lease liability for all leases, except for leases with a term of twelve months or less (short-term leases) and low value leases. For short-term and low value leases, the Company recognizes the lease payments as an operating expense on a straightline basis over the term of the lease.

Certain lease arrangements includes the options to extend or terminate the lease before the end of the lease term. Lease payments to be made under such reasonably certain extension options are included in the measurement of ROU assets and lease liabilities.

Lease liability is measured by discounting the lease payments using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if not readily determinable, using the incremental borrowing rates in the country of domicile of the leases. Lease liabilities are remeasured with a corresponding adjustment to the related right of use asset if the Company changes its assessment of whether it will exercise an extension or a termination option.

Lease payments are allocated between principal and finance cost. The finance cost is charged to statement of profit and loss over the lease period so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability for each period.

The ROU assets are initially recognized at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or prior to the commencement date of the lease plus any initial direct costs less any lease incentives and restoration costs.

They are subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, if any. ROU assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the asset’s useful life or the lease whichever is shorter.

Impairment of ROU assets is in accordance with the Company’s accounting policy for impairment of tangible and intangible assets.

Short-term leases and leases of low-value assets:

The Company has elected not to recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for shortterm leases that have a lease term of 12 months or less and leases of low-value assets. The Company recognizes the lease payments associated with these leases as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

2.7 Financial instruments

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

Initial recognition and measurement

A financial asset is recognized in the balance sheet when the Company becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. At initial recognition, the Company measures a financial asset at its fair value plus or minus, in the case of a financial asset not at fair value through statement of profit and loss, transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of the financial asset.

Subsequent measurement

For purpose of subsequent measurement, financial assets are classified into:

a. Financial assets measured at amortized cost;

b. Financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI);

c. Financial assets measured at fair value through statement of profit and loss (FVTPL)

The Company classifies its financial assets in the above mentioned categories based on:

a. The Company’s business model for managing the financial assets;

b. The contractual cash flows characteristics of the financial asset.

Financial assets measured at amortized cost

This category generally applies to trade and other receivables.

A financial asset is measured at amortized cost if both of the following conditions are met:

a. The financial asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows;

b. The contractual terms of the financial assets give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest (SPPI) on the principal amount outstanding.

Financial assets are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the Effective Interest Rate (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 statement of profit and loss. The losses arising from impairment are recognized in the statement of profit and loss.

Financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI)

A financial asset is measured at fair value through other comprehensive income if both of the following conditions are met:

a. The financial asset is held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting the contractual cash flows and selling financial assets;

b. The asset’s contractual cash flows represent SPPI.

Financial assets measured at fair value through the statement of profit and loss (FVTPL)

FVTPL is a residual category. Any financial asset, which does not meet the criteria for categorization as at amortized cost or as FVTOCI, is classified as at FVTPL. In addition, the Company may elect to designate a financial asset, which otherwise meets amortized cost or FVTOCI criteria, as at FVTPL. Such financial assets are measured at fair value with all changes in fair value, including interest income and dividend income if any, recognised as ''other income’ in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

Equity Instruments

All the equity instruments in scope of Ind AS 109 are measured at fair value. Equity instruments which are held for trading are classified as at FVTPL.

If the company decides to classify an equity instrument as at FVTOCI, then all the fair value changes on the instrument, excluding dividends, are recognized in the OCI. There is no recycling of the amounts from OCI to statement of profit and loss, even on sale of investment. However, the company may transfer the cumulative gain or loss within equity. Equity instruments included within FVTPL category are measured at fair value with all the changes recognized in statement of profit and loss.

Derecognition

A financial asset (or, where applicable, a part of a financial asset or part of a group of similar financial assets) is derecognized (i.e. removed from the Company’s balance sheet) when:

a. The contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset have expired, or

b. The Company has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from the asset or has

assumed an obligation to pay the received cash flows in full without material delay to a third party under a ''pass-through'' arrangement; and either

c. The Company has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, or

d. The Company has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, but has transferred control of the asset.

Impairment of financial assets

In accordance with Ind AS 109, the Company assesses impairment based on expected credit loss (ECL) model to the following:

a. Financial assets measured at amortized cost;

b. Financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income

Expected credit losses are measured through a loss allowance at an amount equal to:

a. The 12-months expected credit losses (expected credit losses that result from those default events on the financial instrument that are possible within 12 months after the reporting date); or

b. Full time expected credit losses (expected credit losses that result from all possible default events over the life of the financial instrument).

The Company follows simplified approach for recognition of impairment loss allowance on trade receivables, under the simplified approach; the Company uses a provision matrix to determine impairment loss allowance on the portfolio of trade receivables. The provision matrix is based on its historically observed default rates over the expected life of the trade receivable which is adjusted for management’s estimates. At every reporting date, the historical observed default rates are updated and changes in the forward-looking estimates are analyzed.

Financial Liabilities

Initial recognition and measurement

Financial liabilities are classified, at initial recognition, as financial liabilities at fair value through statement of profit and loss, loans and borrowings, payables, or as derivatives designated as hedging instruments in an effective hedge, as appropriate.

All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value and, in case of loans and borrowings and payables, net of directly attributable transaction costs.

The Company’s financial liabilities include trade and other payables and short term borrowings. Subsequent measurement

a. Financial liabilities measured at amortized cost;

b. Financial liabilities subsequently measured at fair value through statement of profit and loss;

Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss include financial liabilities held for trading and financial liabilities designated upon initial recognition as at fair value through profit or loss. Financial liabilities are classified as held for trading if they are incurred for the purpose of repurchasing in the near term. Gains or losses on liabilities held for trading are recognised in the statement of profit and loss.

Financial liabilities designated upon initial recognition at fair value through statement of profit and loss are designated as such at the initial date of recognition, and only if the criteria in Ind AS 109 are satisfied.

Trade and other payables

These amounts represent liability for goods and services provided to the Company prior to the end of financial year which are unpaid. Trade and other payables are presented as current liabilities unless payment is not due within 12 months after the reporting period. They are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

Fair Value

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:

(i) In the principal market for the asset or liability, or

(ii) In the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the asset or liability

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 best economic interest.

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 categorized 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.

2.8 Derivative financial instruments and Hedge Accounting

The company’s activities expose it to the financial risk of the changes in foreign exchange and interest rates. The use of financial derivative is governed by the company’s risk management policies approved by the board of the directors. The company has taken cross currency interest rate swaps for its floating rate foreign currency borrowings to hedge foreign currency risk and interest rate risk. The company has taken forward contracts to hedge future probable forecasted export sales.

The company documents at the inception of the hedging transaction the economic relationship betweenh edging instruments and hedged items including whether the hedging instrument is expected to offset changes in cash flows of hedged items. The company documents its risk management objective and strategy for undertaking various hedge transactions at the inception of each hedge relationship.

The full fair value of a hedging derivative is classified as a non-current asset or liability when the remaining maturity of the hedged item is more than 12 months; it is classified as a current asset or liability when the remaining maturity of the hedged item is less than 12 months. Trading derivatives are also classified as a current asset or liability when expected to be realized /settled within 12 months of the balance sheet date.

a. Cash flow hedges that qualify for hedge accounting:

The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges is recognised in the other comprehensive income in cash flow hedging reserve within equity, limited to the cumulative change in fair value of the hedged item on a present value basis from the inception of the hedge. The gain or loss relating to the ineffective portion is recognised immediately in statement of profit and loss, within other gains/(losses). Amounts accumulated in equity are reclassified to statement of profit and loss in the periods when the hedged item affects statement of profit and loss

2.9 Inventories

Inventories are valued at cost or net realizable value (NRV), whichever is lower. The basis of determining cost for various categories of inventories is as follows:

a. Raw materials, finished goods, packing materials, stores and spares and consumables are carried at the lower of cost and net realizable value after providing for obsolescence, if any. The comparison of cost and NRV is made on an item-by item basis.

b. In determining the cost of raw materials, packing materials, consumables, stores and spares, First- in-First-Out (FIFO) method is used. Cost of inventory comprises all costs of purchase, duties, taxes (other than those subsequently recoverable from tax authorities) and all other costs incurred in bringing the inventory to their present location and condition.

c. Cost of finished goods includes the cost of raw materials, packing materials, an appropriate share of fixed and variable production overheads, excise duty as applicable and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition.

2.10 Employee benefit Short-term employee benefits

Employee benefits payable wholly within twelve months of receiving employee services are classified as short-term employee benefits. These benefits include salaries and wages, bonus, short term compensated absences, ex-gratia, etc. The undiscounted amount of shortterm employee benefits to be paid in exchange for employee services is recognised a s an expense as the related service is rendered by employees.

Compensated Absences

Accumulated leave, which is expected to be utilized within the next 12 months, is treated as short-term employee benefit. The Company measures the expected cost of such absences as the additional amount that it expects to pay as a result of the unused entitlement that has accumulated at the reporting date.

Post-Employment Benefits:

(i) Defined Contribution plans:

Defined contribution plans are employee state insurance scheme and Government administered provident funds scheme for all applicable employees and superannuation scheme for eligible employees.

Recognition and measurement of defined contribution plans:

The Company recognizes contribution payable to a defined contribution plan as an expense in the Statement of Profit and Loss when the employees render services to the Company during the reporting period. If the contributions payable for services received from employees before the reporting date exceed the contributions already paid, the deficit payable is recognized as a liability after deducting the contribution already paid. If the contribution already paid exceeds the contribution due for services received before the reporting date, the excess is recognized as an asset to the extent that the prepayment will lead to, for example, a reduction in future payments or a cash refund.

(ii) Defined Benefit Plans Provident Fund scheme:

Defined Contribution Plans such as Provident Fund etc., are charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss as incurred. The contributions are made to a government administered Provident Fund scheme towards which the Company has no further obligations beyond its monthly contributions.

Defined benefit Gratuity plan:

The Company has funded its gratuity liability with Life Insurance Corporation of India(LIC) under the Group Gratuity Cash Accumulation Plan.

Recognition and measurement of Defined Benefit plans:

The cost of providing defined benefits is determined using the Projected Unit Credit method with actuarial valuations being carried out at each reporting date. The defined benefit obligations recognized in the Balance Sheet represent the present value of the defined benefit obligations as reduced by the fair value of plan assets, if applicable. Any defined benefit asset (negative defined benefit obligations resulting from this calculation) is recognized representing the present value of available refunds and reductions in future contributions to the plan.

All expenses represented by current service cost, past service cost, if any, and net interest on the defined benefit liability / (asset) are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss. Remeasurements of the net defined benefit liability / (asset) comprising actuarial gains and losses and the return on the plan assets (excluding amounts included in net interest on the net defined benefit liability/asset), are recognized in Other Comprehensive Income. Such remeasurements are not reclassified to the Statement of Profit and Loss in the subsequent periods.

The Company presents the above liability/(asset) as current and non-current in the Balance Sheet as per actuarial valuation by the independent actuary; however, the entire

liability towards gratuity is considered as current as the Company will contribute this amount to the LIC within the next twelve months.

2.11 Borrowing Cost

The Company is capitalizing borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or construction of qualifying assets. Qualifying assets are assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use or sale. For borrowing cost capitalization, the capital cost of a particular project is identified against a borrowing in terms of period of construction and the borrowing cost for the relevant period is added to the capital cost till the particular project is capitalised and thereafter the interest is charged to the statement of profit and loss. All other borrowing costs are recognized as expense in the period in which they are incurred and charged to the statement of profit and loss.

2.12 Foreign Currency Translation Functional and presentation currency

The financial statements are presented in Indian rupee (INR), which is Company’s functional and presentation currency.

Initial Recognition:

On initial recognition, transactions in foreign currencies entered into by the Company are recorded in the functional currency (i.e. Indian Rupees), by applying to the foreign currency amount, the spot exchange rate prevailing on the date of the transaction. Exchange differences arising on foreign exchange transactions settled during the year are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

Transactions and balances:

Transactions in foreign currencies are recognised at the prevailing exchange rates on the transaction dates. Realized gains and losses on settlement of foreign currency transactions are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

Monetary foreign currency assets and liabilities at the year-end are translated at the year-end exchange rates and the resultant exchange differences are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

Non-monetary items that are measured interms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the dates of the initial transactions. Non-monetary items measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date whenthe fair value is determined.

2.13 Revenue Recognition

Revenue from contracts with customers is recognized on transfer of control of promised goods or services to a customer atan amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company is expected to be entitled to in exchange for those goodsor services.

Revenue towards satisfaction of a performance obligation is measured at the amount of transaction price (net of variable consideration) allocated to that performance obligation. The transaction price of goods sold and services rendered is net of variable consideration on account of various discounts and schemes offered by the Company as part of the contract. This variable consideration is estimated based on the expected value of outflow. Revenue (net of variable consideration) is recognized only to the extent that it is highly probable that the amount will not be subject to significant reversal whenun certainty relating to its recognition is resolved.

Sale of products:

Revenue from sale of products is recognized when the control on the goods have been transferred to the customer. The performance obligation in case of sale of product is satisfied at a point in time i.e., when the material is shipped to the customer or on delivery to the customer, as may be specified in the contract.

Revenue from services:

Revenue from services is recognized over time by measuring progress towards satisfaction of performance obligation for the services rendered as per contractually agreed terms.

Interest and dividends:

Interest income is recognized using effective interest method. Dividend income is recognized when the right to receive dividend is established.

Other Operating Revenue -Export Incentive:

Export Incentives are recognized as income when right to receive credit as per the terms of the scheme is established in respect of the exports made and when there is no significant uncertainty regarding the ultimate collection of the relevant export proceeds.

2.14 Taxation

Income taxes

Tax expense is the aggregate amount included in the determination of profit or loss for the period in respect of current tax and deferred tax.

Current tax:

Current tax is the amount of income taxes payable in respect of taxable profit for a period. Taxable profit differs from ''profit before tax’ as reported in the Statement of Profit and Loss because of items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and items that are never taxable or deductible under the Income Tax Act, 1961.

Current tax is measured using tax rates that have been enacted by the end of reporting period for the amounts expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities.

Deferred tax:

Deferred tax is recognized on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit under Income Tax Act, 1961.

Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognized for all taxable temporary differences. However, in case of temporary differences that arise from initial recognition of assets or liabilities in a transaction that affect neither the taxable profit nor the accounting profit, deferred tax liabilities are not recognized. Also, for temporary differences if any that may arise from initial recognition of goodwill, deferred tax liabilities are not recognized.

Deferred tax assets are generally recognized for all deductible temporary differences to the extent it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary difference can be utilized. In case of temporary differences that arise from initial recognition of assets or liabilities in a transaction that affect neither the taxable profit nor the accounting profit, deferred tax assets are not recognized.

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow the benefits of part or all of such deferred tax assets to be utilized.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the Balance Sheet date and are expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.

Minimum Alternate Tax credit is recognised as deferred tax asset only when and to the extent there is convincing evidence that the Company will pay normal income tax during the specified period. Such asset is reviewed at each Balance Sheet date and the carrying amount of the MAT credit asset is written down to the extent there is no longer a convincing evidence to the effect that the Company will pay normal income tax during the specified period.

Presentation of current and deferred tax:

Current and deferred tax are recognized as income or an expense in the Statement of Profit and Loss, except when they relate to items that are recognized in Other Comprehensive Income, in which case, the current and deferred tax income/ expense are recognized in Other Comprehensive Income.

The Company offsets current tax assets and current tax liabilities, where it has a legally enforceable right to set off the recognized amounts and where it intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. In case of deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities, the same are offset if the Company has a legally enforceable right to set off corresponding current tax assets against current tax liabilities and the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority on the Company.

Refer Note 46 for an explanation of how the transition from Indian GAAP (IGAAP) to Ind AS has affected the Company''s financial position, financial performance and cash flows.

These financial statements have been prepared and presented under the historical cost convention, on the accrual basis of accounting except for certain financial assets and financial liabilities (including Derivative Instrument) that are measured at fair values (Refer note No. 34) and Defined benefit planned assets measured at fair value (Refer note no. 37)at the end of each reporting period, as stated in the accounting policies set out below. The accounting policies have been applied consistently over all the periods presented in these financial statements.

(ii) Use of estimates and judgments

The estimates and judgments used in the preparation of the financial statements are continuously evaluated by the Company and are based on historical experience and various other assumptions and factors (including expectations of future events) that the Company believes to be reasonable under the existing circumstances. Differences between actual results and estimates are recognized in the period in which the results are known/materialized.

The said estimates are based on the facts and events, that existed as at the reporting date, or that occurred after that date but provide additional evidence about conditions existing as at the reporting date.

(iii) Current / Non-Current Classification

All assets and liabilities have been classified as current or noncurrent as per the Company''s normal operating cycle and other criteria set out in the Schedule III to the Companies Act, 2013. Based on the nature of products and the time between acquisition of assets for processing and their realization in cash and cash equivalents, the Company has ascertained its operating cycle as 12 months for the purpose of current/non-current classification of assets and liabilities.

2.2 Property Plant and Equipment Recognition and measurement

Freehold land is carried at historical cost. All the other items of Property, Plant and Equipment are stated at cost, net of recoverable taxes, less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any.

The cost of Property, Plant and Equipment comprises of its purchase price or construction cost, any costs directly attributable to bringing the asset into the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management, the initial estimate of any decommissioning obligation, if any, and borrowing costs for assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use. Subsequent costs are included in the asset''s carrying amount only when 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.

Capital work-in-progress is stated at cost. All the direct expenditure related to implementation including incidental expenditure incurred during the period of implementation of a project, till it is commissioned, is accounted as Capital work-in-progress (CWIP) and after commissioning the same is transferred / allocated to the respective item of property, plant and equipment.

Pre-operating costs, are expensed to the Statement of Profit and Loss as and when incurred.

If significant parts of an item of Property, Plant and Equipment have different useful lives and cost, then they are accounted for as separate items (major components) of property, plant and equipment.

Any gain or loss on disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment is recognized in Statement of Profit and Loss.

Transition to Ind AS

On transition to Ind AS, the Company has elected to continue the previous GAAP carrying value of all its Property Plant and Equipment as at April 1, 2016 and use that carrying value as deemed cost of property plant and equipment.

2.3 Intangible asset Recognition and measurement

Intangible assets are initially measured at cost. Intangible assets are recognized when it is probable that the future economic benefits that are attributable to the assets will flow to the Company and the cost of the asset can be measured reliably.

Such intangible assets are subsequently measured at cost less accumulated amortization and any accumulated impairment losses. The cost of an intangible asset comprises of its purchase price, including any import duties and other taxes (other than those subsequently recoverable from the taxing authorities), and any directly attributable expenditure on making the asset ready for its intended use

Transition to Ind AS

On transition to Ind AS, the Company has elected to continue with the previous GAAP carrying value of all the intangible assets recognized as at April 1, 2016 and use that carrying value as the deemed cost of the intangible assets.

2.4 Depreciation method, estimated useful lives and residual value

The estimate of the useful life of the assets has been assessed based on technical advice which considered the nature of the asset, the usage of the asset, expected physical wear and tear, the operating conditions of the asset, anticipated technological changes, manufacturers warranties and maintenance support, etc.

Depreciation is provided on a pro-rata basis on the straight line method over the useful lives as prescribed under Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013 with the exception of the following:

The management believes that these estimated useful lives reflect fair approximation of the period over which the assets are likely to be used.

The residual values, useful lives and methods of depreciation of property, plant and equipment are reviewed at each financial year end and adjusted prospectively, if required.

Intangible assets are amortized over the estimated period of benefit, not exceeding five years.

2.5 Impairment

Assets that have an indefinite useful life, for example goodwill, are not subject to amortization and are tested for impairment annually and whenever there is an indication that the asset may be impaired. Assets that are subject to depreciation are reviewed for impairment, whenever events or changes in

circumstances indicate that carrying amount may not be recoverable. Such circumstances include, though are not limited to, significant or sustained decline in revenues or earnings and material adverse changes in the economic environment.

An impairment loss is recognized whenever the carrying amount of an asset or its cash generating unit (CGU) exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount of an asset is the greater of its fair value less cost to sell and value in use. To calculate value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market rates and the risk specific to the asset. For an asset that does not generate largely independent cash inflows, the recoverable amount is determined for the CGU to which the asset belongs. Fair value less cost to sell is the best estimate of the amount obtainable from the sale of an asset in an arm''s length transaction between knowledgeable, willing parties, less the cost of disposal.

Impairment losses, if any, are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss and included in depreciation and amortization expense. Impairment losses are reversed in the Statement of Profit and Loss only to the extent that the asset''s carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined if no impairment loss had previously been recognized.

2.6 Financial instruments

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

Initial recognition and measurement

A financial asset is recognized in the balance sheet when the Company becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. At initial recognition, the Company measures a financial asset at its fair value plus or minus, in the case of a financial asset not at fair value through statement of profit and loss, transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of the financial asset.

Subsequent measurement

For purpose of subsequent measurement, financial assets are classified into:

a. Financial assets measured at amortized cost;

b. Financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI);

c. Financial assets measured at fair value through statement of profit and loss (FVTPL)

The Company classifies its financial assets in the above mentioned categories based on:

a. The Company''s business model for managing the financial assets;

b. The contractual cash flows characteristics of the financial asset.

Financial assets measured at amortized cost

This category generally applies to trade and other receivables.

A financial asset is measured at amortized cost if both of the following conditions are met:

a. The financial asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows;

b. The contractual terms of the financial assets give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest (SPPI) on the principal amount outstanding.

Financial assets are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the Effective Interest Rate (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 statement of profit and loss. The losses arising from impairment are recognized in the statement of profit and loss.

Financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI)

A financial asset is measured at fair value through other comprehensive income if both of the following conditions are met:

a. The financial asset is held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting the contractual cash flows and selling financial assets;

b. The asset''s contractual cash flows represent SPPI.

Financial assets measured at fair value through the statement of profit and loss (FVTPL)

FVTPL is a residual category. Any financial asset, which does not meet the criteria for categorization as at amortized cost or as FVTOCI, is classified as at FVTPL. In addition, the Company may elect to designate a financial asset, which otherwise meets amortized costor FVTOCI criteria, as at FVTPL. Such financial assets are measured at fair value with all changes in fair value, including interest income and dividend income if any, recognized as ''other income'' in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

Equity Instruments

All the equity instruments in scope of Ind AS 109 are measured at fair value. Equity instruments which are held for trading are classified as at FVTPL.

If the company decides to classify an equity instrument as at FVTOCI, then all the fair value changes on the instrument, excluding dividends, are recognized in the OCI. There is no recycling of the amounts from OCI to statement of profit and loss, even on sale of investment. However, the company may transfer the cumulative gain or loss within equity. Equity instruments included within FVTPL category are measured at fair value with all the changes recognized in statement of profit and loss.

Derecognition

A financial asset (or, where applicable, a part of a financial asset or part of a group of similar financial assets) is derecognized (i.e. removed from the Company''s balance sheet) when:

a. The contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset have expired, or

b. The Company has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from the asset or has assumed an obligation to pay the received cash flows in full without material delay to a third party under a ''pass-through'' arrangement; and either

c. The Company has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, or

d. The Company has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, but has transferred control of the asset.

Impairment of financial assets

In accordance with Ind AS 109, the Company assesses impairment based on expected credit loss (ECL) model to the following:

a. Financial assets measured at amortized cost;

b. Financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income Expected credit losses are measured through a loss allowance at an amount equal to:

a. The 12-months expected credit losses (expected credit losses that result from those default events on the financial instrument that are possible within 12 months after the reporting date); or

b. Full time expected credit losses (expected credit losses that result from all possible default events over the life of the financial instrument).

The Company follows simplified approach for recognition of impairment loss allowance on trade receivables, under the simplified approach; the Company uses a provision matrix to determine impairment loss allowance on the portfolio of trade receivables. The provision matrix is based on its historically observed default rates over the expected life of the trade receivable which is adjusted for management''s estimates. At every reporting date, the historical observed default rates are updated and changes in the forward-looking estimates are analyzed.

Financial Liabilities

Initial recognition and measurement

Financial liabilities are classified, at initial recognition, as financial liabilities at fair value through statement of profit and loss, loans and borrowings, payables, or as derivatives designated as hedging instruments in an effective hedge, as appropriate.

All financial liabilities are recognized initially at fair value and, in case of loans and borrowings and payables, net of directly attributable transaction costs.

The Company''s financial liabilities include trade and other payables and short term borrowings. Subsequent measurement

a. Financial liabilities measured at amortized cost;

b. Financial liabilities subsequently measured at fair value through statement of profit and loss.

Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss include financial liabilities held for trading and financial liabilities designated upon initial recognition as at fair value through profit or loss. Financial liabilities are classified as held for trading if they are incurred for the purpose of repurchasing in the near term. Gains or losses on liabilities held for trading are recognized in the statement of profit and loss. Financial liabilities designated upon initial recognition at fair value through statement of profit and loss are designated as such at the initial date of recognition, and only if the criteria in Ind AS 109 are satisfied.

Trade and other payables

These amounts represent liability for goods and services provided to the Company prior to the end of financial year which are unpaid. Trade and other payables are presented as current liabilities unless payment is not due within 12 months after the reporting period. They are recognized initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method.

Fair Value

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:

(i) In the principal market for the asset or liability, or

(ii) In the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the asset or liability 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 best economic interest.

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 categorized 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.

2.7 Derivative financial instruments and Hedge Accounting

The company''s activities exposes it to the financial risk of the changes in foreign exchange and interest rates. The use of financial derivative is governed by the company''s risk management policies approved by the board of the directors. The company has taken cross currency interest rate swaps for its floating rate foreign currency borrowings to hedge foreign currency risk and interest rate risk. The company has taken forward contracts to hedge future probable forecasted export sales.

The company documents at the inception of the hedging transaction the economic relationship between hedging instruments and hedged items including whether the hedging instrument is expected to offset changes in cash flows of hedged items. The company documents its risk management objective and strategy for undertaking various hedge transactions at the inception of each hedge relationship. The full fair value of a hedging derivative is classified as a non-current asset or liability when the remaining maturity of the hedged item is more than 12 months; it is classified as a current asset or liability when the remaining maturity of the hedged item is less than 12 months. Trading derivatives are also classified as a current asset or liability when expected to be realized /settled within 12 months of the balance sheet date.

a. Cash flow hedges that qualify for hedge accounting:

The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges is recognized in the other comprehensive income in cash flow hedging reserve within equity, limited to the cumulative change in fair value of the hedged item on a present value basis from the inception of the hedge. The gain or loss relating to the ineffective portion is recognized immediately in statement of profit and loss, within other gains/(losses). Amounts accumulated in equity are reclassified to statement of profit and loss in the periods when the hedged item affects statement of profit and loss

2.8 Inventories

Inventories are valued at cost or net realizable value (NRV), whichever is lower. The basis of determining cost for various categories of inventories is as follows:

a. Raw materials, finished goods, packing materials, stores and spares and consumables are carried at the lower of cost and net realizable value after providing for obsolescence, if any. The comparison of cost and NRV is made on an item-by item basis.

b. In determining the cost of raw materials, packing materials, consumables, stores and spares, First-in-First-Out (FIFO) method is used. Cost of inventory comprises all costs of purchase, duties, taxes (other than those subsequently recoverable from tax authorities) and all other costs incurred in bringing the inventory to their present location and condition.

c. Cost of finished goods includes the cost of raw materials, packing materials, an appropriate share of fixed and variable production overheads, excise duty as applicable and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition.

2.9 Employee benefit Short-term employee benefits

Employee benefits payable wholly within twelve months of receiving employee services are classified as short-term employee benefits. These benefits include salaries and wages, bonus, short term compensated absences, ex-gratia, etc. The undiscounted amount of short-term employee benefits to be paid in exchange for employee services is recognized as an expense as the related service is rendered by employees.

Compensated Absences

Accumulated leave, which is expected to be utilized within the next 12 months, is treated as short-term employee benefit. The Company measures the expected cost of such absences as the additional amount that it expects to pay as a result of the unused entitlement that has accumulated at the reporting date. Post-Employment Benefits:

(i) Defined Contribution plans:

Defined contribution plans are employee state insurance scheme and Government administered provident funds scheme for all applicable employees and superannuation scheme for eligible employees.

Recognition and measurement of defined contribution plans:

The Company recognizes contribution payable to a defined contribution plan as an expense in the Statement of Profit and Loss when the employees render services to the Company during the reporting period. If the contributions payable for services received from employees before the reporting date exceed the contributions already paid, the deficit payable is recognized as a liability after deducting the contribution already paid. If the contribution already paid exceeds the contribution due for services received before the reporting date, the excess is recognized as an asset to the extent that the prepayment will lead to, for example, a reduction in future payments or a cash refund.

(ii) Defined Benefit Plans Provident Fund scheme:

Defined Contribution Plans such as Provident Fund etc., are charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss as incurred. The contributions are made to a government administered Provident Fund scheme towards which the Company has no further obligations beyond its monthly contributions.

Defined benefit Gratuity plan:

The Company has funded its gratuity liability with Life Insurance Corporation of India (LIC) under the Group Gratuity Cash Accumulation Plan.

Recognition and measurement of Defined Benefit plans:

The cost of providing defined benefits is determined using the Projected Unit Credit method with actuarial valuations being carried out at each reporting date. The defined benefit obligations recognized in the Balance Sheet represent the present value of the defined benefit obligations as reduced by the fair value of plan assets, if applicable. Any defined benefit asset (negative defined benefit obligations resulting from this calculation) is recognized representing the present value of available refunds and reductions in future contributions to the plan.

All expenses represented by current service cost, past service cost, if any, and net interest on the defined benefit liability / (asset) are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss. Remeasurements of the net defined benefit liability / (asset) comprising actuarial gains and losses and the return on the plan assets (excluding amounts included in net interest on the net defined benefit liability/asset), are recognized in Other Comprehensive Income. Such remeasurements are not reclassified to the Statement of Profit and Loss in the subsequent periods.

The Company presents the above liability/(asset) as current and non-current in the Balance Sheet as per actuarial valuation by the independent actuary; however, the entire liability towards gratuity is considered as current as the Company will contribute this amount to the LIC within the next twelve months.

2.10 Borrowing Cost

The Company is capitalizing borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or construction of qualifying assets. Qualifying assets are assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use or sale. For borrowing cost capitalization, the capital cost of a particular project is identified against a borrowing in terms of period of construction and the borrowing cost for the relevant period is added to the capital cost till the particular project is capitalized and thereafter the interest is charged to the statement of profit and loss. All other borrowing costs are recognized as expense in the period in which they are incurred and charged to the statement of profit and loss. 2.11Foreign Currency Translation

Functional and presentation currency

The financial statements are presented in Indian rupee (INR), which is Company''s functional and presentation currency.

Initial Recognition:

On initial recognition, transactions in foreign currencies entered into by the Company are recorded in the functional currency (i.e. Indian Rupees), by applying to the foreign currency amount, the spot exchange rate prevailing on the date of the transaction. Exchange differences arising on foreign exchange transactions settled during the year are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

Transactions and balances:

Transactions in foreign currencies are recognized at the prevailing exchange rates on the transaction dates. Realized gains and losses on settlement of foreign currency transactions are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

Monetary foreign currency assets and liabilities at the year-end are translated at the year-end exchange rates and the resultant exchange differences are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss. 2.12Revenue Recognition Sale of goods

Revenue is recognized when the significant risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the buyer, recovery of the consideration is probable, the associated costs and possible return of goods can be estimated reliably, there is no continuing effective control over, or managerial involvement with, the goods, and the amount of revenue can be measured reliably.

Amount disclosed as revenue are inclusive of excise duty and net of returns, trade allowance, rebates, goods services and tax (GST) and amount collected on behalf of third parties.

Revenue from export sales is recognized when the significant risks and rewards of ownership of products are transferred to the customers.

Sale of service- Job work

Job Work Sales are recognized as and when the processing of specific products is completed and related costs are incurred in accordance with the terms of the specific contracts.

Export incentive

Export Incentives are recognized as income when right to receive credit as per the terms of the scheme is established in respect of the exports made and when there is no significant uncertainty regarding the ultimate collection of the relevant export proceeds.

Interest and Dividend Income

Interest income is recognized using effective interest method. Dividend income is recognized when the right to receive dividend is established.

2.13Taxation

Income taxes

Tax expense is the aggregate amount included in the determination of profit or loss for the period in respect of current tax and deferred tax.

Current tax:

Current tax is the amount of income taxes payable in respect of taxable profit for a period. Taxable profit differs from ''profit before tax'' as reported in the Statement of Profit and Loss because of items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and items that are never taxable or deductible under the Income Tax Act, 1961.

Current tax is measured using tax rates that have been enacted by the end of reporting period for the amounts expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities.

Deferred tax:

Deferred tax is recognized on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit under Income Tax Act, 1961.

Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognized for all taxable temporary differences. However, in case of temporary differences that arise from initial recognition of assets or liabilities in a transaction that affect neither the taxable profit nor the accounting profit, deferred tax liabilities are not recognized. Also, for temporary differences if any that may arise from initial recognition of goodwill, deferred tax liabilities are not recognized.

Deferred tax assets are generally recognized for all deductible temporary differences to the extent it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary difference can be utilized. In case of temporary differences that arise from initial recognition of assets or liabilities in a transaction that affect neither the taxable profit nor the accounting profit, deferred tax assets are not recognized.

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow the benefits of part or all of such deferred tax assets to be utilized.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the Balance Sheet date and are expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.

Minimum Alternate Tax credit is recognized as deferred tax asset only when and to the extent there is convincing evidence that the Company will pay normal income tax during the specified period. Such asset is reviewed at each Balance Sheet date and the carrying amount of the MAT credit asset is written down to the extent there is no longer a convincing evidence to the effect that the Company will pay normal income tax during the specified period.

Presentation of current and deferred tax:

Current and deferred tax are recognized as income or an expense in the Statement of Profit and Loss, except when they relate to items that are recognized in Other Comprehensive Income, in which case, the current and deferred tax income/ expense are recognized in Other Comprehensive Income.

The Company offsets current tax assets and current tax liabilities, where it has a legally enforceable right to set off the recognized amounts and where it intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. In case of deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities, the same are offset if the Company has a legally enforceable right to set off corresponding current tax assets against current tax liabilities and the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority on the Company.

2.14Provisions and Contingent Liabilities

The Company recognizes provisions when a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event exists and it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle such obligation and the amount of such obligation can be reliably estimated.

If the effect of time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre-tax rate that reflects, when appropriate, the risks specific to the liability. When discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognized as a finance cost.

A disclosure for a contingent liability is made when there is a possible obligation or a present obligation that may, but probably will not require an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits or the amount of such obligation cannot be measured reliably. When there is a possible obligation or a present obligation in respect of which likelihood of outflow of resources embodying economic benefits is remote, no provision or disclosure is made.

2.15 Research and Development Expenditure

Expenditure on research is recognized as an expense when it is incurred. Expenditure on development which does not meet the criteria for recognition as an intangible asset is recognized as an expense when it is incurred.

Items of property, plant and equipment and acquired Intangible Assets utilized for Research and Development are capitalized and depreciated in accordance with the policies stated for Property, Plant and Equipment and Intangible Assets.

2.16 Earnings per Share

Basic EPS is computed by dividing net profit after taxes for the year by weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the financial year, adjusted for bonus share elements in equity shares issued during the year and excluding treasure shares, if any.

Diluted earnings per share adjusts the figures used in the determination of basic earnings per share to take into account the after income tax effect of interest and other financing costs associated with dilutive potential equity shares and the weighted average number of additional equity shares that would have been outstanding assuming the conversion of all dilutive potential equity shares.

2.17 Segment Reporting

The Chief Operational Decision Maker (CODM) monitors the operating results of its business segments separately for the purpose of making decisions about resource allocation and performance assessment. Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the CODM.

The Board of Directors (BOD) of the Company assesses the financial performance and position of the Company, and makes strategic decisions; hence the Board of Directors are CODM. Refer note 39 for segment related information.

2.18 Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash and deposits with banks. The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a remaining maturity at the date of purchase of three months or less and that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash to be cash equivalents.

2.19 Statement of Cash Flows

Cash flows are reported using the indirect method, whereby profit before tax is adjusted for the effects of transactions of a non-cash nature, any deferrals or accruals of past or future operating cash receipts or payments and item of income or expenses associated with investing or financing cash flows. The cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities of the Company are segregated.

2.20 KEY ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGMENTS

The preparation of the Company''s financial statements requires the management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities, and the accompanying disclosures,and the disclosure of contingent liabilities. Uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets or liabilities affected in future periods.

Critical accounting estimates and assumptions

The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year, are described below:

Income taxes

The Company''s tax jurisdiction is India. Significant judgments are involved in estimating budgeted profits for the purpose of paying advance tax, determining the provision for income taxes, including amount expected to be paid/recovered for uncertain tax positions (Refer Note 33).

Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, Plant and Equipment represent a significant proportion of the asset base of the Company. The charge in respect of periodic depreciation is derived after determining an estimate of an asset''s expected useful life and the expected residual value at the end of its life. The useful lives and residual values of Company''s assets are determined by the management at the time the asset is acquired and reviewed periodically, including at each financial year end. The lives are based on historical experience with similar assets as well as anticipation of future events, which may impact their life, such as changes in technical or commercial obsolescence arising from changes or improvements in production or from a change in market demand of the product or service output of the asset.

Defined Benefit Obligation

The costs of providing gratuity and other post-employment benefits are charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss in accordance with Ind AS 19 ''Employee benefits'' over the period during which benefit is derived from the employees'' services. The costs are assessed on the basis of assumptions selected by the management. These assumptions include salary escalation rate, discount rates, expected rate of return on assets and mortality rates. The same is disclosed in Note 37, ''Employee benefits''.

Fair value measurement of Financial Instruments

When the fair values of financials assets and financial liabilities recorded in the Balance Sheet cannot be measured based on quoted prices in active markets, their fair value is measured using valuation techniques, including the discounted cash flow model, which involve various judgments and assumptions.

3. STANDARAD ISSUED NOT YET EFFECTIVE Standards issued but not yet effective

In March, 2018, the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) issued the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Amendment Rules, 2018, notifying Ind AS 115, Revenue from Contract with Customers, Appendix B to Ind AS 21, Foreign Currency Transactions and advance consideration and amendments to certain other standards. These amendments are in line with recent amendments made by International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). These amendments are applicable to the Company from 1st April, 2018. The Company will be adopting the amendments from their effective date.

a) Ind AS 115, Revenue from Contract with Customers:

Ind AS 115supersedes Ind AS 11, Construction Contracts and Ind AS 18, Revenue, Ind AS 115 requires an entity to report information regarding nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from a contract with customers. The Principle of Ind AS 115 is that an entity should recognize revenue that demonstrates the transfer of promised goods and services to customers at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The standard can be applied either retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented or can be applied retrospectively with recognition of cumulative effect of contracts that are not completed contracts at the date of initial application of the standard.

Based on the preliminary assessment performed by the Company, the impact of application of the standard is not expected to be material.

b) Appendix B to Ind AS 21, Foreign currency transactions and advance consideration: The Appendix clarifies that the date of the transaction for the purpose of determining the exchange rate to use on initial recognition of the asset, expenses or income (or part of it) is the date on which an entity initially recognizes the non-monetary asset or non-monetary liability arising from the payment or receipt of advance consideration towards such asset, expenses or income. If there are multiple payments or receipts in advance, then an entity must determine transaction date for each payment or receipts of advance consideration.

The impact of the Appendix on the financial statements, as assessed by the Company, is expected to be not material.

1 Significant Accounting Policies :

1.1 Basis of Preparation of Financial Statements

a) Basis of Accounting

These financial statements have been prepared and presented under the historical cost convention, on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in India (''Indian GAAP'') and comply with the Accounting standards prescribed in the Companies (Accounting Standards) Rules, 2006 which continue to apply under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 (''the Act'') read with Rule 7 of the Companies (Accounts) Rules, 2014.

b) Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. The estimates and assumptions used in the accompanying financial statements are based upon management evaluation of the relevant facts and circumstances as on the date of the financial statements. Actual results may differ from the estimates and assumptions used in preparing the accompanying financial statements. Any revisions to accounting estimates are recognized prospectively in current and future periods.

c) Current / Non Current Classification

All assets and liabilities have been classified as current or noncurrent as per the Company''s normal operating cycle and other criteria set out in the Schedule III to the Companies Act, 2013. Based on the nature of products and the time between acquisition of assets for processing and their realization in cash and cash equivalents, the Company has ascertained its operating cycle as 12 months for the purpose of current/non-current classification of assets and liabilities.

1.2 Fixed Assets and Depreciation / Amortization

a) Tangible Fixed Assets

Tangible Assets are stated at cost net of recoverable taxes, trade discounts and rebates, less accumulated depreciation and impairment loss, if any. The cost of Tangible Assets comprises its purchase price, borrowing cost and any cost directly attributable to bringing the asset to its working condition for its intended use.

Subsequent expenditures related to an item of Tangible Asset are added to its book value only if they increase the future benefits from the existing asset beyond its previously assessed standard of performance.

Depreciation on tangible fixed assets is provided using the Straight Line Method based on the useful lives of the assets as estimated by the management and is charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss as per the requirement of Schedule II of the Companies Act, 2013. The estimate of the useful life of the assets has been assessed based on technical advice which considered the nature of the asset, the usage of the asset, expected physical wear and tear, the operating conditions of the asset, anticipated technological changes, manufacturers warranties and maintenance support, etc. Depreciation is provided on a pro-rata basis on the straight line method over the useful lives as prescribed under Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013 with the exception of the following :

i) Office Building with RCC frame structure is depreciated over 30 years based on the technical evaluation of useful life done by the management.

ii) Factory Building is depreciated over 20 years based on the technical evaluation of useful life done by the management.

b) Intangible Assets

Intangible assets are recognized when it is probable that the future economic benefits that are attributable to the assets will flow to enterprise and the cost of the assets can be measured reliably. The intangible assets are recorded at the consideration paid for the acquisition of such assets and are carried at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment loss, if any.

Costs incurred on acquisition of intangible assets are capitalized and amortized on a straight-line basis over their technically assessed useful lives, as mentioned below :

c) Capital Work in Progress & Capital Advances

Cost of Assets not ready for intended use, as on the balance sheet date, is shown as capital work in progress. Advances given towards acquisition of fixed assets outstanding at each balance sheet date are disclosed as Long Term Loans & Advances.

d) Impairment

The carrying amounts of assets are reviewed at each Balance Sheet date if there is any indication of impairment based on internal/external factors An asset is impaired when the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the recoverable amount. An impairment loss is charged to the statement of Profit and Loss in the year in which an asset is identified as impaired. An impairment loss recognized in prior accounting periods is reversed if there has been change in the estimate of the recoverable amount.

1.3 Investments

Investments are classified into current and non-current investments. Investments that are readily realizable and intended to be held for not more than a year from the date of acquisition are classified as current investments. All other investments are classified as non-current investments.

Current investments are stated at the lower of cost and fair value. The comparison of cost and fair value is done separately in respect of each category of investments.

Non-current investments are stated at cost. A provision for diminution in the value of long-term investments is made only if such a decline is other than temporary in the opinion of the management.

On disposal of an investment, the difference between its carrying amount and net disposal proceeds is recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

1.4 Inventories

a) Raw materials, finished goods, packing materials, stores and spares and consumables are carried at the lower of cost and net realizable value after providing for obsolescence, if any. The comparison of cost and net realizable value is made on an item-by item basis.

b) In determining the cost of raw materials, packing materials, consumables, stores and spares, First-in-First-Out (FIFO) method is used. Cost of inventory comprises all costs of purchase, duties, taxes (other than those subsequently recoverable from tax authorities) and all other costs incurred in bringing the inventory to their present location and condition.

c) Cost of finished goods includes the cost of raw materials, packing materials, an appropriate share of fixed and variable production overheads, excise duty as applicable and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition.

d) Materials in transit are valued at cost-to-date.

1.5 Transactions in Foreign Currency:

a) Initial recognition:

Transactions in foreign currencies entered into by the Company are accounted at the exchange rates prevailing on the date of the transaction. Exchange differences arising on foreign exchange transactions settled during the year are recognized in the statement of profit and loss.

b) Measurement of foreign currency items at the Balance Sheet date:

Foreign currency monetary items of the Company are restated at the closing exchange rates. Non-monetary items are recorded at the exchange rate prevailing on the date of the transaction. Exchange differences arising out of these translations are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

c) Forward exchange contracts:

The Company enters into forward exchange contracts to hedge against its foreign currency exposures relating to the underlying transactions and firm commitments. The Company does not enter into any derivative instruments for trading or speculative purposes.

The premium or discount arising at the inception of forward exchange contract is amortized and recognized as an expense/income over the life of the contract. Exchange differences on such contracts are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss in the period in which the exchange rate changes. Any Profit or Loss arising on cancellation or renewal of such forward exchange contract is also recognized as income or expense for the period.

1.6 Revenue Recognition

a) Export Sales

Sales against fixed price contract are recognized when the significant risks and rewards of ownership are transferred to the buyer.

b) Domestic Sales

Revenue from sale of goods is recognized on transfer of all significant risks and rewards of ownership to the buyer.

Any unrecognized past service costs and the fair value of any plan assets are deducted. The calculation of the Company''s obligation under the plan is performed annually by a qualified actuary using the projected unit credit method, which recognizes each period of service as giving rise to additional unit of employee benefit entitlement and measures each unit separately to build up the final obligation. The discount rates used for determining the present value of the obligation under defined benefit plan, are based on the market yields on Government securities as at the Balance sheet date.

Current tax is determined on income for the year chargeable to tax in accordance with the applicable tax rates and the provisions of the Income Tax Act, 1961 and other applicable tax laws and after considering credit for Minimum Alternate Tax (MAT) available under the said Act. MAT paid in accordance with the tax laws which gives future economic benefits in the form of adjustments to future tax liability, is considered as an asset if there is convincing evidence that the future economic benefit associated with it will flow to the Company resulting in payment of normal income tax.

Deferred tax is recognized on timing differences; being the difference between taxable income and accounting income that originate in one period and are capable of reversing in one or more subsequent periods. Deferred tax is measured using the tax rates and the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted as at the reporting date. Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for all timing differences.
