Accounting Policies of Rashi Peripherals Ltd. Company

Mar 31, 2025

1.4. Summary of material accounting policies

(a) Property, Plant and Equipment and Depreciation:

Property, Plant and Equipment except capital work-in
progress is stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation
and impairment losses, if any. Capital work-in-progress
is stated at cost less any recognised impairment loss.
The cost of Property, Plant & Equipment comprises its
purchase price net of any trade discounts and rebates,
any import duties and other taxes (other than those
subsequently recoverable from the tax authorities), any
directly attributable expenditure on making the asset
ready for its intended use, other incidental expenses
and interest on borrowings attributable to acquisition
of qualifying Property, Plant & Equipment up to the date
the asset is ready for its intended use. The cost of an item
of Property, Plant & Equipment is recognised as an asset
if, and only if, it is probable that the economic benefits
associated with the item will flow to the Company in
future periods and the cost of the item can be measured
reliably. Expenditure incurred after the Property, Plant
and Equipment have been put into operations, such as
repairs and maintenance expenses are charged to the
statement of profit and loss during the period in which
they are incurred.

The subsequent cost incurred by an entity for
improvement of Property, Plant & Equipment is added
to the carrying value of the item of Property, Plant &
Equipment and for the items replacing existing Property,
Plant & Equipment, an entity recognises in the carrying
amount of an item of Property, plant & equipment, the
cost of replacing part of such an item when that cost is

incurred if the recognition criteria are met. The carrying
amount of those parts that are replaced is derecognised
in accordance with the derecognition provisions.

An item of Property, Plant & Equipment is de-recognised
upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are
expected to arise from the continued use of the assets.
Any gain or loss arising on the disposal or retirement of
an item of Property, Plant & Equipment, is determined
as the difference between the sales proceeds and the
carrying amount of the asset and is recognised in the
statement of profit and loss.

Depreciation on Property, Plant and Equipment -

Depreciable amount of Property, Plant and Equipment
is the cost of an asset less its estimated residual value.

Property, Plant and Equipment is depreciated on the
Written Down Value method as per the useful life
prescribed in Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013 or
useful life of the assets has been assessed as under based
on technical advice, taking into account the nature of the
asset, the estimated usage of the asset, the operating
conditions of the asset, past history of replacement,
anticipated technological changes, manufacturers
warranties and maintenance support, etc.

Leasehold premises is depreciated using the straight line
method for useful life of the assets.

(b) Intangible assets and amortisation of intangible
assets:

i. I ntangible assets are initially measured at cost.
Such intangible assets are subsequently measured
at cost less accumulated amortization and
impairment losses, if any.

The intangible assets, that are not yet ready for their
intended use are carried at cost and are reflected
under intangible assets under development. Direct

costs associated in developing the intangible
assets are capitalized when the following criteria
are met, otherwise, it is recognised in statement of
profit and loss as incurred.

• it is technically feasible to complete the intangible
asset so that it will be available for use,

• management intends to complete the intangible
asset and put it to use,

• there is ability to use the intangible asset,

• there is an identifiable asset that will generate
expected future economic benefits and

• there is an ability to measure reliably the
expenditure attributable to the intangible asset
during its development

ii. I ntangible assets are amortized on written down
value basis over the useful life prescribed in
Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013 or technical
estimate made by the Company, whichever is lower.
The useful lives of intangible assets (computer
software) is 3 years.

iii. The estimated useful life of the intangible assets
is reviewed at the end of each financial year and
the amortization method is revised to reflect the
changed pattern, if any.

iv. An intangible asset is de-recognised on disposal
or when no future economic benefits are expected
from its use. Gains or losses arising from de¬
recognition of an intangible asset, measured as the
difference between the net disposal proceeds and
the carrying amount of the asset are recognised in
the standalone statement of profit and loss when
the asset is de-recognised.

(c) Impairment of property, plant and equipment,
and intangible assets:

The Company assesses at each reporting date as to
whether there is any indication that any Property, Plant
and Equipment and Intangible Assets may be impaired.
If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount
of an asset is estimated to determine the extent of
impairment, if any. An impairment loss is recognised in
the statement of profit and loss to the extent, asset''s
carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The
recoverable amount is higher of an asset''s fair value
less cost of disposal and value in use. Value in use is
based on the estimated future cash flows, discounted
to their present value using pre-tax discount rate
that reflects current market assessments of the time
value of money and risk specific to the assets. The
impairment loss recognised in prior accounting period
is reversed if there has been a change in the estimate of
recoverable amount.

(d) Leases:

At inception of a contract, the Company assesses
whether a contract is, or contains, a lease if the contract
conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset
for a period of time in exchange for consideration.

As a lessee

The Company recognises a right-of-use asset and a lease
liability at the lease commencement date. The right-of-
use asset is initially measured at cost, which comprises
the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for any
lease payments made at or before the commencement
date, plus any initial direct costs incurred and an estimate
of costs to dismantle and remove the underlying asset or
to restore the underlying asset or the site on which it is
located, less any lease incentives received.

The right-of-use asset is subsequently depreciated using
the straight-line method from the commencement date
to the end of the lease term, unless the lease transfers
ownership of the underlying asset to the Company
by the end of the lease term or the cost of the right-
of-use asset reflects that the Company will exercise
a purchase option. In that case the right-of-use asset
will be depreciated over the useful life of the underlying
asset, which is determined on the same basis as those of
property, plant and equipment. In addition, the right-of-
use asset is periodically reduced by impairment losses,
if any, and adjusted for certain re-measurements of the
lease liability.

The lease liability is initially measured at the present
value of the lease payments that are not paid at the
commencement date, discounted using the Company''s
incremental borrowing rate.

The Company determines its incremental borrowing
rate by obtaining interest rates from various external
financing sources that reflects the terms of the lease and
type of the asset leased.

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

• fixed payments, including in-substance
fixed payments;

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

• amounts expected to be payable under a residual
value guarantee; and

• the exercise price under a purchase option that
the Company is reasonably certain to exercise,
lease payments in an optional renewal period if
the Company is reasonably certain to exercise an
extension option, and penalties for early termination
of a lease unless the Company is reasonably certain
not to terminate early.

The lease liability is measured at amortised cost using
the effective interest method. It is re-measured when
there is a change in future lease payments arising
from a change in an index or rate, if there is a change
in the Company''s estimate of the amount expected
to be payable under a residual value guarantee, if the
Company changes its assessment of whether it will
exercise a purchase, extension or termination option or
if there is a revised in -substance fixed lease payment.

When the lease liability is re-measured in this way,
a corresponding adjustment is made to the carrying
amount of the right-of-use asset, or is recorded in
statement of profit and loss if the carrying amount of
the right-of-use asset has been reduced to zero.

The Company presents right-of-use assets and lease
liabilities separately on the face of the balance sheet.

Short-term leases

The Company has elected not to recognise right-of-use
assets and lease liabilities for short-term leases. The
Company recognises the lease payments associated
with these leases as an expense on a straight-line basis
over the lease term.

(e) Inventories

I nventories are stated at the lower of cost and net
realisable value. Costs of inventories are determined on
a first-in-first-out basis. Net realisable value represents
the estimated selling price for inventories less all
estimated costs of completion and costs necessary
to make the sale. The cost includes cost of purchases,
which are net of discounts and rebates and other costs
incurred in bringing the inventories to their present
location and condition.

(f) Foreign currency transactions

i. In preparing the Financial Statements of the
Company, transactions in foreign currencies,
other than the Company''s functional currency, are
recognised at the rate of exchange prevailing at
the dates of the transactions. At the end of each
reporting period, monetary assets and liabilities
denominated in foreign currencies are translated
at the rate prevailing at that date. Non-monetary
items that are measured in terms of historical cost
in a foreign currency are not re-translated.

Exchange differences on monetary items are
recognised in the statement of profit and loss in
the period in which these arise, as appropriate.

The Financial Statements are presented in Indian
Rupees, which is the functional currency of the
Company and the currency of the primary economic

environment in which the Company operates, and
all values are rounded off to the nearest Millions, up
to 2 decimal places except as otherwise indicated.

ii. Foreign Operations:

For the purpose of presenting Financial Statements,
the assets and liabilities of the Company''s foreign
operations are translated at exchange rates
prevailing on the reporting date. Income and expense
items are translated at the average exchange rates
for the period, unless exchange rates fluctuate
significantly during that period, in which case the
exchange rates at the date of transactions are used.
Exchange differences arising, if any, are recognised
in other comprehensive income and accumulated in
a foreign exchange translation reserve.

On the disposal of a foreign operation all of the
exchange differences accumulated in a foreign
exchange translation reserve in respect of that
operation are reclassified to profit or loss.

(g) Revenue recognition

Revenue with contracts with customers/ Income
from services:

The Company recognises revenue when (or as) a
performance obligation is satisfied, i.e. when ‘control''
of the goods or services underlying the particular
performance obligation is transferred to the customer.

Revenue from sale of products or services is recognised
upon transfer of control of promised products or services
to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration
expected to be received in exchange for those products
or services.

Revenue is measured based on the transaction
price, which is the consideration, adjusted for volume
discounts, price concessions and incentives, if any, as
specified in the contract with the customer. Revenue also
excludes taxes collected from customers.

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.

(h) Other income

i. Dividend from investments is recognised when
the right to receive the payment is established and
when no significant uncertainty as to measurability
or collectability exists.

ii. Rental income under operating leases is recognised
in the statement of profit and loss on a straight line
basis over the term of the lease.

iii. For all financial instruments measured at amortised
cost, interest income is recorded using the effective
interest rate (EIR), which is the rate that exactly
discounts the estimated future cash payments or
receipts through the expected life of the financial
instrument to the gross carrying amount of the
financial asset.

iv. Interest income is recognised on accrual basis.

(i) Employee benefits

i. Short-term employee benefits

Short-term employee benefits are determined as
per Company''s policy/scheme on an undiscounted
basis. A liability is recognised for benefits accruing
to employees in respect of salaries, performance
incentives and compensated absences in the period
the related service is rendered at the undiscounted
amount of the benefits expected to be paid in
exchange for that service.

ii. Defined benefit plan

A defined benefit plan is a post-employment
benefit plan other than a defined-contribution plan.
The Company''s obligation in respect of defined
benefit plans is calculated separately for each
plan by estimating the amount of future benefit
that employees have earned in the current and
prior periods.

The Company''s gratuity plan is funded, the defined
benefit obligation of which is determined annually
by a qualified actuary using the projected unit
credit method as at each balance sheet date.
The liability or asset recognised in the Balance
Sheet is the present value of the defined benefit
obligation at the end of the reporting period less
the fair value of plan assets. Rashi Peripherals
Private Limited Employee Gratuity Trust (“the
Trust”) is administered by the Company. The Trust
makes contribution to the group gratuity scheme
administered by the HDFC Standard Life Insurance
Company Limited out of payments received from
the Company. Re-measurement of defined benefit
obligation, which comprises of actuarial gains
and losses are recognised in other comprehensive
income in the period in which they occur. The
Company determines the net interest expenses
on the net defined benefit obligation, taking into
account any changes in the net defined benefit
liability during the period as a result of contribution
and benefit payments. Net interest expenses
related to defined benefit plan are recognised in
employee benefit expenses in the statement of
profit and loss.

The benefit vests upon completion of five years of
continuous service and once vested it is payable
to employees on retirement or on termination of
employment. In case of death while in service, the
gratuity is payable irrespective of vesting.

iii. Defined contribution plan

A defined contribution plan is a post-employment
benefit plan under which an entity pays fixed
contributions to a separate entity and will
have no legal or constructive obligation to pay
further amounts. The Company makes monthly
contributions towards Government administered
schemes such as the provident fund and
employee state insurance scheme. Obligations
for contributions to defined contribution plans
are recognised as an employee benefit expense
in the statement of profit and loss in the periods
during which the related services are rendered by
the employees.

iv. Long-term employee benefits

The Company''s obligation in respect of long-term
employee benefits other than post-employment
benefits is the amount of future benefit that
employees have earned in return for their service
in the current and prior periods. The obligation is
measured on the basis of an annual independent
actuarial valuation using the projected unit credit
method as at each balance sheet date.

(j) Current Tax

The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for
the year. Taxable profit differs from net profit as reported
in profit or loss because it excludes items of income or
expense that are taxable or deductible in other years
and it further excludes items that are never taxable or
deductible. The Company''s liability for current tax is
calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or
substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.

Deferred tax

Deferred tax is recognised on temporary differences
between the carrying amounts of the assets and liabilities
in the financial statement and the corresponding tax
bases used in the computation of the taxable profit.

Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all
taxable temporary differences and deferred tax assets
are recognised for all deductible temporary differences
to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits
will be available against which deductible temporary
differences can be utilised. Such deferred tax assets
and liabilities are not recognised if the temporary
difference arises from the initial recognition (other than
in a business combination) of assets and liabilities in a
transaction that affects neither the taxable profit nor the
accounting profit.

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

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

The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets
reflects the tax consequences that would follow from
the manner in which the Company expects, at the end
of the reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying
amount of its assets and liabilities.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there
is a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets
against current tax liabilities and when they relate to
income taxes levied by the same taxation authority and
the Company intends to settle its current tax assets and
liabilities on a net basis.

Current tax and deferred tax for the year

Current and deferred tax are recognised in statement
of profit or loss, except when they relate to items that
are recognised in other comprehensive income or directly
in equity, in which case, the current and deferred tax
are also recognised in other comprehensive income or
directly in equity respectively.

1.1 Company overview

M/s Rashi Peripherals Limited (formerly known as Rashi Peripherals Private Limited) ("the Company") was incorporated on March 15, 1989 in India under the provision of the Companies Act, 1956. The Company operates in the Information and Communication Technology Product (ICT) Distribution Business as well as after sale services of Information Technology Products. The Company has an operating branch in Singapore. The Company also has two subsidiaries viz. Znet Technologies Private Limited in India and Rashi Peripherals Pte Ltd. in Singapore.

The registered office of the Company is located at Ariisto House, 5^th Floor, Corner of Telli Galli, Andheri (East), Mumbai - 400069.

1.2 Basis of preparation 1.2.1. Statement of compliance

The Standalone Financial Statements are prepared and presented in accordance with the Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS) prescribed under section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 ("the Act") read with the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) ("Ind AS"), Rules, 2015 as amended from time to time.

1.2.2 .Functional currency and presentation currency

The Standalone Financial Statements are presented in ''Indian Rupees'' (''), which is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the Company operates (the functional currency). The functional currency of the Company''s branch in Singapore is United States Dollar (USD).

The Standalone Financial Statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, except for certain financial instruments that are measured at fair values at the end of each reporting period, as explained in the accounting policies below.

Historical Cost: Assets are recorded at the amount of cash or cash equivalents paid or the fair value of the other consideration given to acquire them at the time of their acquisition. Liabilities are recorded at the amount of proceeds received in exchange for the obligation, or in some circumstances (for example, income taxes), at the amounts of cash or cash equivalents expected to be paid to satisfy the liability in the normal course of business.

All financial information has been rounded off to the nearest Millions, up to 2 decimal places except as otherwise indicated.

1.2.3. Recent accounting pronouncements

Ministry of Corporate Affairs ("MCA") notifies new standard or amendments to the existing standards. There is no such notification which would have been applicable from April 1, 2024.

1.3 Key sources of estimation uncertainty and critical accounting judgements

The preparation of the Standalone Financial Statements in conformity with Ind AS requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on a periodic basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimates are revised, if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

The following are the significant areas of estimation, uncertainty and critical judgments in applying accounting policies that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements:

(i) Income taxes:

Significant judgments are involved in determining provision for income taxes, including the amount expected to be paid or recovered in connection with uncertain tax positions. The ultimate realisation of deferred income tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which the temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversals of deferred tax liabilities and the projected future taxable income in making this assessment. Based on the level of historical taxable income and projections for future taxable income over the periods in which the deferred income tax assets are deductible, management believes that the Company will realize the benefits of those deductible differences. The amount of the deferred income tax assets considered realizable, however, could be reduced in the near term if estimates of future taxable income during the carry forward period are reduced.

(ii) Measurement of defined benefit obligations:

The determination of the Company''s defined benefit obligation depends on certain

assumptions, which include selection of the discount rate. The discount rate is set by reference to government bonds. Significant assumptions are required to be made when setting the criteria for bonds to be included in the population from which the yield curve is derived. The most significant criteria considered for the selection of bonds include the issue size of the corporate bonds, quality of the bonds and the identification of outliers which are excluded. These assumptions are considered to be a key source of estimation uncertainty as relatively small changes in the assumptions used may have a significant effect on the Company''s financial statements within the next year. Further information on the carrying amounts of the Company''s defined benefit obligation sensitivity of those amounts to changes in discount rate are provided in note 26.

(iii) Useful lives of Property, plant and equipment and intangible assets:

The cost of property, plant and equipment is depreciated over the estimated useful life, which is based on the technical evaluation made by the Company considering various factors including expected usage of the asset, expected physical wear and tear, the repair and maintenance program and technological obsolescence arising from changes and the residual value.

(iv) Impairment of Investments:

Determine whether the investments in subsidiaries are impaired requires an estimate in the value in use. In considering the value in use, the management have anticipated the future cash flows, discount rates and other factors of the underlying companies. Any subsequent changes to the cash flow could impact the carrying amount of the investments.

(v) Inventory Obsolescence:

Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and the net realizable value (including rebates). Adjustments to reduce the cost of inventory to its realisable value, if required, are made at the product level. Factors influencing these adjustments include changes in demand, rapid technological changes, product life cycle, product pricing, physical deterioration and other issues. Revisions to these adjustments would be required if these factors differ from the estimates.

(vi) Revenue recognition:

The Company has assessed its revenue arrangements based on substance of the transaction and business model against specific criteria to determine if it is acting as principal or agent.

(vii) Other estimates:

Non-financial assets are tested for impairment by determining the recoverable amount. Determination of recoverable amount is based on value in use, which is present value of future cash flows. The key inputs used in the present value calculations include the expected future growth in operating revenues and margins in the forecast period, long-term growth rates and discount rates.

(viii) Provisions, liabilities and contingencies:

Provisions and liabilities are recognized in the period when it becomes probable that there will be a future outflow of funds resulting from past events that can reasonably be estimated. The timing of recognition requires application of judgement to existing facts and circumstances which may be subject to change.

I n the normal course of business, contingent liabilities may arise from litigation and other claims against the Company. Potential liabilities that are possible but not probable of an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits are treated as contingent liabilities. Such liabilities are disclosed in the notes but are not recognized.

(ix) Impairment of property plant and equipment:

Determining whether the property, plant and equipment are impaired requires an estimate in the value in use of cash generating units. It requires to estimate the future cash flows expected to arise from the cash generating units and a suitable discount rate in order to calculate present value. When the actual cash flows are less than expected, a material impairment loss may arise.

(x) Fair value measurements:

Some of the Company''s assets and liabilities are measured at fair value for financial reporting purposes. In estimating the fair value of an asset or a liability, the Company uses market-observable data to the extent it is available.

Management analyses the movements in the values of assets and liabilities which are required to be re-measured or re-assessed as per the Company''s accounting policies. For this analysis, the management verifies the major inputs applied in the latest valuation by agreeing the information in the valuation computation to contracts and other relevant documents.

(xi) Product manufacturer supplier programs:

Product manufacturer suppliers formulate various programs for business done with them on account of, including but not limited to inventory volume promotion programs and price protection rebates etc. These programs of Inventory volume promotion programs, price protection rebates, etc. are recorded as a reduction in the cost of purchase of traded goods and carrying value of inventories. The rebates are accrued based on the terms of the program and business volumes of qualifying products. Some of these programs may extend over one or more quarterly periods. The Company tracks vendor promotional programs for volume discounts on a program-by-program basis. Once the program is implemented, the benefit of the program based on the actual volume is recorded as a receivable from vendors with a corresponding reduction in the cost of purchase of traded goods and carrying value of inventories.

1.4 Summary of material accounting policies

(a) Property, Plant and Equipment and Depreciation:

Property, Plant and Equipment except capital work-in progress is stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, if any. Capital work-in-progress is stated at cost less any recognised impairment loss. The cost of Property, Plant & Equipment comprises its purchase price net of any trade discounts and rebates, any import duties and other taxes (other than those subsequently recoverable from the tax authorities), any directly attributable expenditure on making the asset ready for its intended use, other incidental expenses and interest on borrowings attributable to acquisition of qualifying Property, Plant & Equipment up to the date the asset is ready for its intended use. The

cost of an item of Property, Plant & Equipment is recognised as an asset if, and only if, it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Company in future periods and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. Expenditure incurred after the Property, Plant and Equipment have been put into operations, such as repairs and maintenance expenses are charged to the statement of profit and loss during the period in which they are incurred.

The subsequent cost incurred by an entity for improvement of Property, Plant & Equipment is added to the carrying value of the item of Property, Plant & Equipment and for the items replacing existing Property, Plant & Equipment, an entity recognises in the carrying amount of an item of Property, plant & equipment, the cost of replacing part of such an item when that cost is incurred if the recognition criteria are met. The carrying amount of those parts that are replaced is derecognised in accordance with the derecognition provisions.

An item of Property, Plant & Equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the assets. Any gain or loss arising on the disposal or retirement of an item of Property, Plant & Equipment, is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and is recognised in the statement of profit and loss.

Depreciation on Property, Plant and Equipment -

Depreciable amount of Property, Plant and Equipment is the cost of an asset less its estimated residual value.

Property, Plant and Equipment is depreciated on the Written Down Value method as per the useful life prescribed in Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013 or useful life of the assets has been assessed as under based on technical advice, taking into account the nature of the asset, the estimated usage of the asset, the operating conditions of the asset, past history of replacement, anticipated technological changes, manufacturers warranties and maintenance support, etc.

Leasehold premises is depreciated using the straight line method for useful life of the assets.

Asset Type	Useful lives estimated by the management (years)
Freehold office premises	60
Plant & Machinery	15
Vehicles- Motor Cars	8
Vehicles- Two Wheelers	10
Furniture & Fixtures	10
Office Equipments	5
Computers- Hardware	3
Computer- Servers	6
Electrical Fittings	10

(b) Intangible assets and amortisation of intangible assets:

i. Intangible assets are initially measured at cost. Such intangible assets are subsequently measured at cost less accumulated amortization and impairment losses, if any.

The intangible assets, that are not yet ready for their intended use are carried at cost and are reflected under intangible assets under development. Direct costs associated in developing the intangible assets are capitalized when the following criteria are met, otherwise, it is recognised in statement of profit and loss as incurred.

• i t is technically feasible to complete the intangible asset so that it will be available for use,

• management intends to complete the intangible asset and put it to use,

• there is ability to use the intangible asset,

• there is an identifiable asset that will generate expected future economic benefits and

• there is an ability to measure reliably the expenditure attributable to the intangible asset during its development

ii. Intangible assets are amortized on written down value basis over the useful life prescribed in Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013 or technical estimate made by the Company, whichever is lower. The useful lives of intangible assets (computer software) is 3 years.

iii. The estimated useful life of the intangible assets is reviewed at the end of each financial year and the amortization method is revised to reflect the changed pattern, if any.

iv. An intangible asset is de-recognised on disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use. Gains or losses arising from de-recognition of an intangible asset, measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset are recognised in the standalone statement of profit and loss when the asset is de-recognised.

(c) Impairment of property, plant and equipment, and intangible assets:

The Company assesses at each reporting date as to whether there is any indication that any Property, Plant and Equipment and Intangible Assets may be impaired. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of an asset is estimated to determine the extent of impairment, if any. An impairment loss is recognised in the statement of profit and loss to the extent, asset''s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is higher of an asset''s fair value less cost of disposal and value in use. Value in use is based on the estimated future cash flows, discounted to their present value using pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and risk specific to the assets. The impairment loss recognised in prior accounting period is reversed if there has been a change in the estimate of recoverable amount.

(d) Leases:

At inception of a contract, the Company assesses whether a contract is, or contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration.

As a lessee

The Company recognises a right-of-use asset and a lease liability at the lease commencement date. The right-of-use asset is initially measured at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, plus any initial direct costs incurred and an estimate of costs to dismantle and remove the underlying asset or to restore the underlying asset or the site on which it is located, less any lease incentives received.

The right-of-use asset is subsequently depreciated using the straight-line method from the commencement date to the end of the lease term, unless the lease transfers ownership of the underlying asset to the Company by the end of the lease term or the cost of the right-of-use asset reflects that the Company will exercise a purchase option. In that case the right-of-use asset will be depreciated over the useful life of the underlying asset, which is determined on the same basis as those of property, plant and equipment. In addition, the right-of-use asset is periodically reduced by impairment losses, if any, and adjusted for certain re-measurements of the lease liability.

The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at the commencement date, discounted using the Company''s incremental borrowing rate.

The Company determines its incremental borrowing rate by obtaining interest rates from various external financing sources that reflects the terms of the lease and type of the asset leased.

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

• fixed payments, including in-substance fixed payments;

^• variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, initially measured using the index or rate as at the commencement date;

• amounts expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee; and

^• the exercise price under a purchase option that the Company is reasonably certain to exercise, lease payments in an optional renewal period if the Company is reasonably certain to exercise an extension option, and penalties for early termination of a lease unless the Company is reasonably certain not to terminate early.

The lease liability is measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. It is re-measured when there is a change in future lease payments arising from a change in an index or rate, if there is a change in the Company''s estimate of the amount expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee, if the Company changes its assessment of whether it will exercise a purchase, extension or termination option or if there is a revised in -substance fixed lease payment.

When the lease liability is re-measured in this way, a corresponding adjustment is made to the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset, or is recorded in statement of profit and loss if the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset has been reduced to zero.

The Company presents right-of-use assets and lease liabilities separately on the face of the balance sheet.

Short-term leases

The Company has elected not to recognise right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for short-term leases. The Company recognises the lease payments associated with these leases as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

(e) Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Costs of inventories are determined on a first-in-first-out basis. Net realisable value represents the estimated selling price for inventories less all estimated costs of completion and costs necessary to make the sale. The cost includes cost of purchases, which are net of discounts and rebates and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition.

(f) Foreign currency transactions

i. I n preparing the Financial Statements of the Company, transactions in foreign currencies, other than the Company''s functional currency, are recognised at the rate of exchange prevailing at the dates of the transactions. At the end of each reporting period, monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the rate prevailing at that date. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are not re-translated.

Exchange differences on monetary items are recognised in the statement of profit and loss in the period in which these arise, as appropriate.

The Financial Statements are presented in Indian Rupees, which is the functional currency of the Company and the currency of the primary economic environment in which the Company operates, and all values are rounded off to the nearest Millions, up to 2 decimal places except as otherwise indicated.

ii. Foreign Operations:

For the purpose of presenting Financial Statements, the assets and liabilities of the

Company''s foreign operations are translated at exchange rates prevailing on the reporting date. Income and expense items are translated at the average exchange rates for the period, unless exchange rates fluctuate significantly during that period, in which case the exchange rates at the date of transactions are used. Exchange differences arising, if any, are recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in a foreign exchange translation reserve.

On the disposal of a foreign operation all of the exchange differences accumulated in a foreign exchange translation reserve in respect of that operation are reclassified to profit or loss.

(g) Revenue recognition

Revenue with contracts with customers/ Income from services:

The Company recognises revenue when (or as) a performance obligation is satisfied, i.e. when ''control'' of the goods or services underlying the particular performance obligation is transferred to the customer.

Revenue from sale of products or services is recognised upon transfer of control of promised products or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration expected to be received in exchange for those products or services.

Revenue from services is recognised over period of time and in the accounting period in which the services are rendered.

Revenue is measured based on the transaction price, which is the consideration, adjusted for volume discounts, price concessions and incentives, if any, as specified in the contract with the customer. Revenue also excludes taxes collected from customers.

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.

(h) Other income

i. Dividend from investments is recognised when the right to receive the payment is established and when no significant uncertainty as to measurability or collectability exists.

ii. Rental income under operating leases is recognised in the statement of profit and loss on a straight line basis over the term of the lease.

iii. For all financial instruments measured at amortised cost, interest income is recorded using the effective interest rate (EIR), which is the rate that exactly discounts the estimated future cash payments or receipts through the expected life of the financial instrument to the gross carrying amount of the financial asset.

iv. Interest income is recognised on accrual basis.

(i) Employee benefits

i. Short-term employee benefits

Short-term employee benefits are determined as per Company''s policy/scheme on an undiscounted basis. A liability is recognised for benefits accruing to employees in respect of salaries, performance incentives and compensated absences in the period the related service is rendered at the undiscounted amount of the benefits expected to be paid in exchange for that service.

ii. Defined benefit plan

A defined benefit plan is a post-employment benefit plan other than a defined-contribution plan. The Company''s obligation in respect of defined benefit plans is calculated separately for each plan by estimating the amount of future benefit that employees have earned in the current and prior periods.

The Company''s gratuity plan is funded, the defined benefit obligation of which is determined annually by a qualified actuary using the projected unit credit method as at each balance sheet date. The liability or asset recognised in the Balance Sheet is the present value of the defined benefit obligation at the end of the reporting period less the fair value of plan assets. Rashi Peripherals Private Limited Employee Gratuity Trust ("the Trust") is administered by the Company. The Trust makes contribution to the group gratuity scheme administered by the HDFC Standard Life Insurance Company Limited out of payments received from the Company. Re-measurement of defined benefit obligation, which comprises of actuarial gains and losses are recognised in other comprehensive income in the period in

which they occur. The Company determines the net interest expenses on the net defined benefit obligation, taking into account any changes in the net defined benefit liability during the period as a result of contribution and benefit payments. Net interest expenses related to defined benefit plan are recognised in employee benefit expenses in the statement of profit and loss.

The benefit vests upon completion of five years of continuous service and once vested it is payable to employees on retirement or on termination of employment. In case of death while in service, the gratuity is payable irrespective of vesting.

iii. Defined contribution plan

A defined contribution plan is a postemployment benefit plan under which an entity pays fixed contributions to a separate entity and will have no legal or constructive obligation to pay further amounts. The Company makes monthly contributions towards Government administered schemes such as the provident fund and employee state insurance scheme. Obligations for contributions to defined contribution plans are recognised as an employee benefit expense in the statement of profit and loss in the periods during which the related services are rendered by the employees.

iv. Long-term employee benefits

The Company''s obligation in respect of longterm employee benefits other than postemployment benefits is the amount of future benefit that employees have earned in return for their service in the current and prior periods. The obligation is measured on the basis of an annual independent actuarial valuation using the projected unit credit method as at each balance sheet date.

(j) Current Tax

The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from net profit as reported in profit or loss because it excludes items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and it further excludes items that are never taxable or deductible. The Company''s liability for current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.

Deferred tax

Deferred tax is recognised on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of the assets and liabilities in the financial statement and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of the taxable profit.

Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable temporary differences and deferred tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which deductible temporary differences can be utilised. Such deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognised if the temporary difference arises from the initial recognition (other than in a business combination) of assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the taxable profit nor the accounting profit.

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

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

The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Company expects, at the end of the reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and when they relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority and the Company intends to settle its current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis.

Current tax and deferred tax for the year

Current and deferred tax are recognised in statement of profit or loss, except when they relate to items that are recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case, the current and deferred tax are also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity respectively.

(k) Provisions

Provisions are recognised when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that the Company will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows to net present value using an appropriate pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and, where appropriate, the risks specific to the liability.

The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the reporting date, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. Where a provision is measured using the cash flows estimated to settle the present obligation, its carrying amount is the present value of those cash flows (when the effect of the time value of money is material).

When some or all of the economic benefits required to settle a provision are expected to be recovered from a third party, a receivable is recognised as an asset if it is virtually certain that reimbursement will be received and the amount of the receivable can be measured reliably.

(l) Contingent Liabilities

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

Claims against the Company, where the possibility of any outflow of resources in settlement is remote, are not disclosed as contingent liabilities.

Contingent assets are not recognised in the Financial Statements since this may result in the recognition of income that may never be realised. However, when the realisation of income is virtually certain, then the related asset is not a contingent asset and is recognised.

(m) Financial Instruments

Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised in the Company''s Balance Sheet when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instruments. Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value, except for trade receivables that do not have a significant financing component which are measured at transaction price. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities (other than financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss) are added to or deducted from the fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities, on initial recognition. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are recognised immediately in profit or loss.

(n) Financial assets

(i) On initial recognition, a financial assets is classified as measured at

- Amortised Cost

- Fair value through profit and loss

(ii) A financial asset is measured at amortised cost if it meets both of the following conditions and is not designated as at Fair Value Through Profit or Loss (FVTPL):

- The asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets to collect contractual flows; and

- The contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specific dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

(iii) All financial assets not classified as measured at amortised cost as described above are measured at FVTPL. This includes all derivative financial assets. On initial recognition, the Company may irrevocably designate a financial asset that otherwise meet the requirements to be measured at amortised cost as at FVTPL if doing so eliminates or significantly reduces an accounting mismatch that would otherwise arise.

All recognised financial assets are measured subsequently in their entirety at either amortised cost or fair value, depending on the classification of the financial assets.

Subsequent Measurement

All recognised financial assets are measured subsequently in their entirety at either amortised cost or fair value, depending on the classification of the financial assets.

Investments in equity instruments at FVTOCI

On initial recognition, the Company may make an irrevocable election (on an instrument-byinstrument basis) to designate investments in equity instruments as at FVTOCI. Designation at FVTOCI is not permitted if the equity investment is held for trading or if it is contingent consideration recognised by an acquirer in a business combination. Investments in equity instruments at FVTOCI are initially measured at fair value plus transaction costs. Subsequently, they are measured at fair value with gains and losses arising from changes in fair value recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in a separate component of equity. The cumulative gain or loss is not reclassified to statement of profit and loss on disposal of the equity investments, instead, it is transferred to retained earnings. Dividends on these investments in equity instruments are recognised in profit or loss in accordance with Ind AS 109, unless the dividends clearly represent a recovery of part of the cost of the investment. The Company designated all investments in equity instruments that are not held for trading as at FVTOCI on initial recognition.

Impairment of financial assets

The Company applies the expected credit loss model for recognising impairment loss on financial assets that are measured at amortised cost, trade receivables and other contractual rights to receive cash or other financial asset.

The amount of expected credit losses is updated at each reporting date to reflect changes in credit risk since initial recognition of the respective financial instrument. The Company always recognises lifetime expected credit losses (ECL) for trade receivables. The Company recognises lifetime ECL when there has been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition. However, if the credit risk on the financial instrument has not increased significantly since initial recognition, the Company measures the loss allowance for that financial instrument at an amount equal to 12-month ECL.

Financial assets, other than those at FVTPL, are assessed for indicators of impairment at the end of each reporting period. In case of financial assets, the Company follows the simplified approach permitted by Ind AS 109 - Financial Instruments - for recognition of impairment loss allowance. The application of simplified approach does not require the Company to track changes in credit risk of trade receivable. The Company calculates the expected credit losses on trade receivables using a provision matrix on the basis of its historical credit loss experience.

De-recognition of Financial Assets:

The Company de-recognises a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire, or when it transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the asset to another party. If the Company neither transfers nor retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership and continues to control the transferred asset, the Company recognises its retained interest in the asset and an associated liability for amounts it may have to pay. If the Company retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of a transferred financial asset, the Company continues to recognise the financial asset and also recognises an associated liability.

On de-recognition of a financial asset, the difference between the asset''s carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received and receivable and the cumulative gain or loss that had been recognised in Other Comprehensive Income and accumulated in other equity is recognised in statement of profit and loss.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash comprises cash on hand and demand deposits with banks. Cash equivalents are short-term balances (with an original maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition), highly liquid investments that are readily convertible into known amounts of cash and which are subject to insignificant risk of changes in value.

(o) Financial liabilities and equity instruments Classification as Debt or Equity:

Debt or equity instruments issued by the Company, are classified as either financial liabilities or as equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangements and the definitions of a financial liability and an equity instrument.

Equity Instruments:

An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the Company after deducting all of its liabilities. Equity instruments issued by the Company are recognised at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs.

Financial Liabilities:

Financial liabilities that are not held-for-trading and are not designated as at FVTPL are measured at amortised cost at the end of subsequent accounting periods. The carrying amounts of financial liabilities that are subsequently measured at amortised cost are determined based on the effective interest method. Interest expenses are included in the ''Finance cost'' line item.

The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial liability and of allocating interest expense over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments (including all fees and points paid or received that form an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and other premiums or discounts) through the expected life of the financial liability, or (where appropriate) a shorter period, to the amortised cost of a financial liability.

Financial liabilities are classified, at initial recognition and measured at amortising cost using effective interest method:

• Loans and borrowings

• Payables

All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value and in the case of loans and borrowings and payables, are recognised net of directly attributable transaction costs. The Company''s financial liabilities include trade and other payables, loans and borrowings including bank overdrafts, financial guarantee contracts and derivative financial instruments through the expected life of the financial liability, or (where appropriate) a shorter period, to the amortised cost of a financial liability.

De-recognition of Financial Liabilities:

The Company de-recognises financial liabilities when and only when, the Company''s obligations are discharged, cancelled or have expired. The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability de-recognised and the consideration paid and payable is recognised in statement of profit and loss.

(p) Offsetting of Financial Instruments:

Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the attainment of balance sheet, if there is a currently enforceable legal right to offset the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis, to realise the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.

(q) Derivative financials instruments

The Company uses foreign currency forward contracts to hedge its risks associated with foreign currency fluctuations relating to certain firm commitments and highly probable forecast transactions. The Company does not use derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes.

Forward contracts are initially recognised at fair value on the date the contract is entered into and are subsequently remeasured at fair value at each reporting date. The resulting gain or loss is recognised in the statement of profit and loss.

(r) Fair value measurement

Some of the Company''s accounting policies or disclosures require the measurement of fair value for both financial and non-financial assets and liabilities.

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 time of measurement.

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. I n the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the asset or liability.

iii. The principal or the most advantageous market must be accessible by the Company.

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

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

Level 2 - Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is directly or indirectly observable other than quoted prices included in Level 1.

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

At each reporting date, management analyses the movements in the values of assets and liabilities which are required to be re-measured or reassessed as per the Company''s accounting policies. For this analysis, the management verifies the major inputs applied in the latest valuation by agreeing the information in the valuation computation to contracts and other relevant documents.

(s) Cash flow statement

Cash flows are reported using the indirect method, whereby profit for the period is adjusted for the effects of transactions of non-cash nature, any deferrals or accruals of operating cash receipts or payments and items 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 based on the nature of transactions.

(t) Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing the net profit or loss for the period attributable to equity shareholders by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period.

For the purpose of calculating diluted earnings per share, the net profit or loss for the period attributable to equity shareholders and the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period are adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potential equity shares.

Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing the profit after tax as adjusted for dividend, interest and other charges to expense or income (net of any attributable taxes) relating to the dilutive potential equity shares, by the weighted average number of equity shares considered for deriving basic earnings per share and the weighted average number of equity shares which would have been issued on the conversion of all dilutive potential equity shares.

Potential equity shares are deemed to be dilutive only if their conversion to equity shares would decrease the net profit per share from continuing operations. Potential dilutive equity shares are deemed to be converted as at the beginning of

the period, unless they have been issued at a later date. The dilutive potential equity shares are adjusted for the proceeds receivable had the shares been actually issued at average market value of the outstanding shares. Dilutive potential equity shares are determined independently for each period presented. The number of equity shares and potentially dilutive equity shares are adjusted for share splits / reverse share splits and bonus shares, as appropriate.

(u) Dividend to shareholders

Final dividend distributed to Equity shareholders is recognised in the period in which it is approved by the members of the Company in its Annual General Meeting. Interim dividend is recognised when approved by the Board of Directors at the Board Meeting. Both final dividend and interim dividend are recognised in the Statement of Changes in Equity.

(v) Borrowing Cost

Borrowing cost includes interest, amortization of ancillary costs incurred in connection with the arrangement of borrowings and exchange differences arising from foreign currency borrowings to the extent they are regarded as an adjustment to the interest cost. Borrowing costs, if any, directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of an asset that necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use or sale are capitalized, if any. All other borrowing costs are expensed in the period in which they occur.

(w) Segment Reporting

Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) of the Company. The CODM is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments of the Company.

(x) Share Issue Expenses:

The share issue expenses incurred by the Company on account of new shares issued are netted off from securities premium account.

(y) Events after Reporting date

Where events occurring after the Balance Sheet date provide evidence of conditions that existed at the end of the reporting period, the impact of such events is adjusted within the financial statement. Otherwise, events after the Balance Sheet date of material size or nature are only disclosed.
