Disclosure of Fair value measurements

Financial Risk Management

The Board of Directors (BOD) has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the Company''s risk management framework and thus established a risk management policy to identify and analyse the risk faced by the Company. Risk Management systems are reviewed by the BOD periodically to reflect changes in market conditions and the Company''s activities. The Company through its training and management standards and procedures develop a disciplined and constructive control environment in which all employees understand their roles and obligations. The Audit Committee oversees how management monitors compliance with the Company''s risk management policies and procedures, and reviews the risk management framework. The Audit committee is assisted in the oversight role by Internal Audit. Internal Audit undertakes reviews of the risk management controls and procedures, the results of which are reported to the Audit Committee.

The Company has the following financial risks:

Categories of Risk	Nature of Risk
Credit Risk	Receivables
	Financial Instruments and Cash deposits
Liquidity Risk	Fund Management
Market Risk	Foreign Currency Risk
	Cash flow and fair value interest rate risk

The Board of Directors regularly reviews these risks and approves the risk management policies, which covers the management of these risks:

Credit Risk

Credit Risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if the customer or counterparty to the financial instruments fails to meet its contractual obligations and arises principally from the Company''s receivables, treasury operations and other operations that are in the nature of lease.

Receivables

The Company''s exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristic of each customer. The Company extends credit to its customers in the normal course of business by considering the factors such as financial reliability of customers. The Company evaluates the concentration of the risk with respect to trade receivables as low, as its customers are located in several jurisdictions and operate in largely independent markets. In case of Corporate / Export Customer, credit risks are mitigated by way of enforceable securities. However, unsecured credits are extended based on creditworthiness of the customers on case to case basis.

Trade receivables are written off when there is no reasonable expectation of recovery, such as a debtor declaring bankruptcy or failing to engage in a repayment plan with the company and where there is a probability of default, the company creates a provision based on Expected Credit Loss for trade receivables under simplified approach as below:

					(Rs. in Lakhs)
As at 31-03-2018	Due less than 45 days	46 to 90 days	91 to 180 days	More than 180 days	Total

Carrying amount of trade receivables net of impairment	3,297.14	601.46	321.27	117.42	4,337.29

Financial Instruments and Cash deposits

Investments of surplus funds are made only with the approved counterparties. The Company is presently exposed to counter party risk relating to short term and medium term deposits placed with Banks. The Company places its cash equivalents based on the creditworthiness of the financial institutions.

Liquidity Risk

Liquidity Risks are those risk that the Company will not be able to settle or meet its obligations on time or at reasonable price. In the management of liquidity risk, the Company monitors and maintains a level of cash and cash equivalents deemed adequate by the management to finance the company''s operations and to mitigate the effects of fluctuations in cash flows. Due to the dynamic nature of the underlying business, the Company aims at maintaining flexibility in funding by keeping both committed and uncommitted credit lines available. The Company has laid well defined policies and procedures facilitated by robust information system for timely and qualitative decision making by the management including its day to day operations.

Foreign Currency Risk

The Company''s exposure in USD and other foreign currency denominated transactions in connection with import of cotton, capital goods & spares, besides exports of finished goods and borrowings in foreign currency, gives rise to exchange rate fluctuation risk. The Company has following policies to mitigate this risk:

Decisions regarding borrowing in Foreign Currency and hedging thereof, (both interest and exchange rate risk) and the quantum of coverage is driven by the necessity to keep the cost comparable. Foreign Currency loans, imports and exports transactions are hedged by way of forward contract after taking into consideration the anticipated Foreign exchange inflows/outflows, timing of cash flows, tenure of the forward contract and prevailing Foreign exchange market conditions.

Cash flow and fair value interest rate risk

Interest rate risk arises from long term borrowings with variable rates which exposed the company to cash flow interest rate risk. The Company''s fixed rate borrowing are carried at amortized cost and therefore are not subject to interest rate risk as defined in Ind AS 107 since neither the carrying amount nor the future cash flows will fluctuate because of the change in market interest rates. The Company is exposed to the evolution of interest rates and credit markets for its future refinancing, which may result in a lower or higher cost of financing, which is mainly addressed through the management of the fixed/floating ratio of financial liabilities. The Company constantly monitors credit markets to strategize a well-balanced maturity profile in order to reduce both the risk of refinancing and large fluctuations of its financing cost. The Company believes that it can source funds for both short term and long term at a competitive rate considering its strong fundamentals on its financial position.

Disclosures as Required by Ind AS 101 First Time Adoption of Indian Accounting Standards

Notes

In preparing these financial statements, the Company’s Opening Balance Sheet was prepared as at 01-04-2015, which is the Company’s date of transition to Ind AS. The following note explains the nature of adjustments made by the Company read with Note No. 3 in restating its previous GAAP Financial Statements including its Balance Sheet as at 01-04-2015 and the financial statements as at and for the year ended 31-03-2016. The previous GAAP figures have been reclassified to conform to Ind AS presentation requirements for the purpose of this disclosure.

A. Depreciation and Amortization Expense

Under previous GAAP, the carrying value of significant components of Property, Plant and Equipment which have completed their useful life, have been charged off against opening balance of General Reserves for the financial year 2015-16 as permitted by Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013. However, under Ind AS, this has been taken through profit and loss for the year ended 31-03-2016 as it not a GAAP difference.

B. Investment Properties

Under previous GAAP as well as Ind AS, Investment Properties are required to be stated at cost net of accumulated depreciation and impairment loss, if any. Under previous GAAP, it was grouped under non-current investments whereas under Ind AS, the same is required to be disclosed as a separate line item in the Balance Sheet. Accordingly, investment properties are reclassified.

C. Investments

Under previous GAAP, long term equity instruments were measured at cost less provision for permanent diminution. Under Ind AS, in respect of investments in companies other than Associates, the Company is required to designate such investments necessarily at fair value. Therefore, the Company has designated such investments as FVTOCI Investments. At the date of transition to Ind AS, the excess /deficit of fair value of equity instruments over the previous GAAP carrying amount is recognised as fair value gain/loss, in the Other Comprehensive Income and transferred to FVTOCI Reserve, net of tax for the year ended 31-03-2016.

D. Financial Guarantee Contracts

The Company has issued Financial Guarantee to Banks for the loans availed by Associates and other related parties. Where guarantees in relation to loans are provided for no compensation, the fair values are accounted for as contributions and recognised as part of the cost of the investment if the loan is given to Assoicates, and recognized as Other expenses if the loan is given to other related parties. The carrying amount of financial guarantee obligation is recognized as other income over the tenure of the corporate guarantee.

E. Recognition & Measurement of Loans & Advances at Amortized Cost

Loans and advances comprise of loans given to employees at concessional interest rates and the said loans are recovered in agreed installments. Under previous GAAP, this has been measured at Transaction value. However, under Ind AS, when the said loans and advances carry interest below the market rate is required to be measured at fair value on initial recognition. The fair value is determined at the present value of EMI, discounted using the market interest rates for similar instruments. The difference between historical value and fair value of such loans and advances are classified under prepaid expenses.

Subsequent to initial recognition, the loans and advances are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method with the carrying amount increased over the period upto the recovery of the loans and advances. The amount of increase in the carrying amount of loans and advances is recognized as ‘Interest Income’ and prepaid expenses are amortized over the tenure of loans and advances as ‘Employee cost’ or ‘Other Expenses’, as it may be appropriate.

F. Presentation of MAT Credit Entitlement as ‘Deferred Tax Assets’

Under previous GAAP, MAT credit entitlement was presented under the head ‘Loans and advances’ since there being a convincing evidence of realization of the asset. As per Ind AS 12 on Income Taxes, Deferred Tax Assets include the amounts of income taxes recoverable in future periods in respect of the carry forward of unused tax credits. Accordingly, MAT Credit Entitlement classified as Loans and Advances under previous GAAP, are netted off against Deferred Tax Liability under Ind AS.

G. Dividend

Under previous GAAP, dividends proposed by the Board of Directors are recognized as proposed dividend in the financial statements even though it is approved by the Shareholders in the AGM only after the Balance Sheet date. However, under Ind AS, dividend has to be recognized upon approval by the Shareholders in the Annual General Meeting. Accordingly, Proposed Dividend (including Dividend Distribution Tax recognized as liability in the financial year 2014-15 as per previous GAAP has been reversed with corresponding credit to Equity as at the date of transition i.e. 01-04-2015 and recognized in the Equity during the year ended 31-03-2016 as declared and paid.

H. Transaction cost on Borrowings

Under previous GAAP, transaction costs (loan processing fees) incurred in connection with borrowings is charged to profit or loss upfront. Under Ind AS, transaction cost is to be included in the initial recognition and charged to profit or loss using the effective interest method. Accordingly, transaction cost on borrowings is reversed to Equity, for the loans outstanding as at 01-04-2015 and additional interest expense is recognized in the Opening Equity for the period upto 01-04-2015, using Effective Interest Rate method (EIR). For the year ended 31-03-2016, the Company has reversed the transaction cost pertaining to the Borrowings availed during the year 2015-16 and the additional Interest impact computed using EIR method is recognized as Finance cost.

I. Recognition and Measurement of Forward Contracts on Mark To Market (MTM)

Under previous GAAP, in respect of forward contracts, the difference between the forward rate and the exchange rate at the inception of the forward exchange contract is recognized as income/expenses over the tenure of such contract. Under Ind AS, the fair value of forward foreign exchange contracts has to be recognized. Accordingly, the assets and liabilities related to forward contracts recognized under previous GAAP are reversed and Mark to Market (MTM) gain / loss is recognized as other expenses in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

J. Deferred Tax

Deferred tax is accounted using income statement approach by computing the differences between taxable profits and accounting profits for the period under previous GAAP. As per Ind AS 12, the deferred tax is to be computed using the balance sheet approach, which is based on temporary differences between the carrying amount of an asset or liability in the balance sheet and its tax base. Deferred tax adjustments are recognized either in retained earnings or a separate component of equity.

K. Defined Benefit Plan

Under previous GAAP, actuarial gains and losses are charged to profit or loss. Under Ind AS re-measurements of net defined benefit asset/liability comprising of actuarial gains or losses are arising from experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumption are charged/credited to other comprehensive income. There is no impact on the total equity as at 31-03-2016. However for the period upto the date of transition, the Company has transferred all re-measurement costs recognized in the past periods within accumulated profits or loss (a component of equity), in accordance with provisions of Para 122 of Ind AS 19.

L. Other Comprehensive Income (OCI)

This is a new classification under Ind AS. Any income or expense that are not required to be recognized in profit or loss are shown under a new category namely OCI in the Statement of Profit and Loss. Expenes of such items are re-measurements of defined benefit plans, gains and losses from investments in equity instruments designated at fair value through other comprehensive income, gains and losses on financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income, gain or loss on financial instruments that qualify for hedge accounting, changes in revaluation surplus and gains and losses arising from translating the financial statements of a foreign operation.
