2. Significant Accounting Policies
a. Revenue Recognition
The Companyâs contracts with customers include promises to transfer
multiple products and services to a customer. Revenues from customer
contracts are considered for recognition and measurement when the
contract has been approved, in writing, by the parties to the contract, the
parties to contract are committed to perform their respective obligations
under the contract, and the contract is legally enforceable. The Company
assesses the services promised in a contract and identifies distinct
performance obligations in the contract. Identification of distinct
performance obligations to determine the deliverables and the ability of
the customer to benefit independently from such deliverables, and
allocation of transaction price to these distinct performance obligations
involves significant judgment.
Fixed-price maintenance revenue is recognized ratably on a straight-line
basis when services are performed through an indefinite number of
repetitive acts over a specified period. Revenue from fixed-price
maintenance contract is recognized ratably using a percentage-of-
completion method when the pattern of benefits from the services rendered
to the customer and Companyâs costs to fulfil the contract is not even
through the period of the contract because the services are generally
discrete in nature and not repetitive. The use of method to recognize the
maintenance revenues requires judgment and is based on the promises in
the contract and nature of the deliverables.
The Company uses the percentage-of-completion method in accounting for
other fixed-price contracts. Use of the percentage-of-completion method
requires the Company to determine the actual efforts or costs expended to
date as a proportion of the estimated total efforts or costs to be incurred.
Efforts or costs expended have been used to measure progress towards
completion as there is a direct relationship between input and
productivity. The estimation of total efforts or costs involves significant
judgment and is assessed throughout the period of the contract to reflect
any changes based on the latest available information.
Contracts with customers includes subcontractor services or third-party
vendor equipment or software in certain integrated services arrangements.
In these types of arrangements, revenue from sales of third-party vendor
products or services is recorded net of costs when the Company is acting
as an agent between the customer and the vendor, and gross when the
Company is the principal for the transaction. In doing so, the Company
first evaluates whether it obtains control of the specified goods or services
before they are transferred to the customer. The Company considers
whether it is primarily responsible for fulfilling the promise to provide the
specified goods or services, inventory risk, pricing discretion and other
factors to determine whether it controls the specified goods or services and
therefore, is acting as a principal or an agent.
Provisions for estimated losses, if any, on incomplete contracts are
recorded in the period in which such losses become probable based on the
estimated efforts or costs to complete the contract.
b. Property, plant and equipment and depreciation:
i. 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 assetâs expected useful life
and the expected residual value at the end of its life. The useful lives and
residual values of the 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 technology.
ii. Depreciation
Depreciation is the systematic allocation of the depreciable amount of PPE
over its useful life and is provided on a straight-line basis over the useful
lives as prescribed in Schedule II to the Act or as per technical assessment.
Depreciable amount for PPE is the cost of PPE less its estimated residual
value. The useful life of PPE is the period over which PPE is expected to be
available for use by the Company, or the number of production or similar
units expected to be obtained from the asset by the Company.
The Company has componentized its PPE and has separately assessed the
life of major components. The Company depreciates its fixed assets over
the useful lives as prescribed in Schedule II to the Act.
c. Intangible Assets
i. Recognition and Measurement
Intangible assets acquired are measured on cost basis on initial
recognition. Subsequently, intangible assets are stated at cost less
accumulated amortization and impairment. Intangible assets are
amortized over their respective estimated useful lives on a straight-line
basis, from the date that they are available for use.
An intangible asset is derecognized on disposal, or when no future
economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Gains or losses
arising from derecognition of an intangible asset, if any, are measured as
the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount
of the asset and are recognized in the statement of profit and loss when
the asset is derecognized.
Subsequent expenditure is capitalized only if it is probable that the future
economic benefits associated with the expenditure will flow to the company.
ii. Amortization
The estimated useful life of an identifiable intangible asset is based on a
number of factors including the effects of obsolescence, demand,
competition and other economic factors (such as the stability of the industry
and known technological advances) and the level of maintenance
expenditures required to obtain the expected future cash flows from the
asset.
A summary of amortization policies applied to the companyâs intangible
assets is as below:
d. Impairment of non-financial assets:
For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the
lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash flows (cash
generating units). As a result, some assets are tested individually for
impairment and some are tested at the cash generating unit level. All
individual assets or cash generating units are tested for impairment
whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying
amount may not be recoverable.
The carrying amounts of assets are reviewed at each balance sheet date to
determine if there is any indication of impairment based on external or
internal factors. An impairment loss is recognized wherever the carrying
amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount which represents the
greater of the net selling price of assets and their âvalue in useâ.
In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted
to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current
market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to
the asset. In determining fair value less costs of disposal, recent market
transactions are taken into account. If no such transactions can be
identified, an appropriate valuation model is used.
These calculations are corroborated by valuation multiples, quoted share
prices for publicly traded companies or other available fair value
indicators.
All assets are subsequently reassessed for indications that an impairment
loss previously recognized may no longer exist.
e. Impairment of financial assets
In accordance with Ind AS 109, the Company applies expected credit loss
(ECL) model for measurement and recognition of impairment loss on risk
exposure arising from financial assets like debt instruments measured at
amortized cost e.g., trade receivables and deposits.
The Company follows âsimplified approachâ for recognition of impairment
loss allowance on Trade receivables or contract revenue receivables. The
application of simplified approach does not require the Company to track
changes in credit risk. Rather, it recognizes impairment loss allowance
based on lifetime ECLs at each reporting date, right from its initial
recognition.
For recognition of impairment loss on other financial assets and risk
exposure, the Company determines that whether there has been a
significant increase in the credit risk since initial recognition. If credit risk
has not increased significantly, 12-month ECL is used to provide for
impairment loss. However, if credit risk has increased significantly,
lifetime ECL is used. If, in a subsequent period, credit quality of the
instrument improves such that there is no longer a significant.
Increase in credit risk since initial recognition, then the entity reverts to
recognizing impairment loss allowance based on 12-month ECL.
Lifetime ECL are the expected credit losses resulting from all possible
default events over the expected life of a financial instrument. The 12-
month ECL is a portion of the lifetime ECL which results from default
events that are possible within 12 months after the reporting date.
ECL is the difference between all contractual cash flows that are due to
the Company in accordance with the contract and all the cash flows that
the entity expects to receive (i.e., all cash shortfalls), discounted at the
original EIR. When estimating the cash flows, an entity is required to
consider all contractual terms of the financial instrument (including
prepayment, extension, call and similar options) over the expected life of
the financial instrument. However, in rare cases when the expected life of
the financial instrument cannot be estimated reliably, then the entity is
required to use the remaining contractual term of the financial
instrument.
ECL impairment loss allowance (or reversal) recognized during the period
is recognized as income/ expense in the Statement of profit and loss. This
amount if any will be reflected under the head âother expensesâ in the
Statement of profit and loss.
For assessing increase in credit risk and impairment loss, the Company
combines financial instruments on the basis of shared credit risk
characteristics with the objective of facilitating an analysis that is designed
to enable significant increases in credit risk to be identified on a timely
basis.
f. Borrowing costs
Borrowings are recognized initially at fair value, net of transaction costs
incurred. Borrowings are subsequently stated at amortized cost with any
difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the
redemption value recognized in the Statement of profit and loss within
finance costs over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest
method.
Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the Company has an
unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12
months after the statement of financial position date.

is the need of the hour. Due to limited power resources, the burden of
cost on an average person is inflating day by day, which can be
addressed by using energy saving product viz. Light Emitting Diode(
LED). A trend of power efficient lightening equipments is following on.
Urban people are continuously using the LED as they are cost conscious
and understanding the benefits of energy efficient measures. The
Government started making publicity in semi-urban and rural areas
regarding the benefits of usage of LED over traditional incandescent
bulbs and it helps the industry to create new demand of the
products.The LED is very cost conscious and uses less energy than CFL.
The market of LED is on the boom in the current scenario.
A. Basis of Accounting & Preparation of Financial Statements

with Indian Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) under the
historical cost convention on the accrual basis.GAAP comprises
mandatory accounting standards as prescribed under the relevant
provisions of the Companies Act, 2013 and guidelines issued by the
Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI). Accounting policies have
been consistently applied except where a newly issued accounting
standard is initially adopted or a revision to an existing accounting
standard requires a change in the accounting policy hitherto in use.
B. Use of Estimates
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with Indian
GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect
the reported balances of assets and liabilities and disclosures relating
to contingent liabilities as at the date of the financial statements and
reported amounts of income and expenses during the period.
Accounting estimates could change from period to period. Actual results
could differ from those estimates. Appropriate changes in estimates are
made as the Management becomes aware of changes in circumstances
surrounding the estimates. Changes in estimates are reflected in the
financial statements in the period in which changes are made and, if
material, their effects are disclosed in the notes to the financial
statements.
C. Revenue Recognition
Revenue is primarily derived from manufacturing Light Emitting Diode
i.e.LED. Revenue part also comprises of income from trading of
Aluminium and CR Coil in Cut. The Income and Expenditure are accounted
on accrual basis, except dividend which is accounted for on receipt
basis.Revenue from sale of goods is recognized when all the significant
risks and rewards of ownership of the goods have been passed to the
buyer.
D. Tangible Assets
Fixed assets are stated at their original cost of acquisition less
accumulated depreciation and impairment losses if any. Cost comprises
of all costs incurred to bring the assets to their location and working
condition and includes all expenses incurred up to the date of
commercial utilization.
Subsequent expenditure related to an item of fixed assets is added to
its book value only if it increases the future benefits from the
existing asset beyond its previously assessed standard of performance.
All other expenses on existing fixed assets, including day-to-day
repair and maintenance expenditure and cost of replacing parts, are
charged to the statement of profit and loss for the period during which
such expenses are incurred.
Gain or losses arising from de-recognition of fixed assets are measured
as the difference between net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount
of the asset and are recognized in the statement of profit and loss
when the asset is derecognized.
E. Intangible Assets
Intangible assets are stated at their original cost of acquisition less
accumulated depreciation and impairment losses if any. The cost of an
intangible asset comprises its purchase price including import duty and
other taxes (other than those subsequently recoverable from taxing
authorities), and any directly attributable expenditure on making the
asset ready for its intended use and net of any trade discounts and
rebates. Subsequent expenditure on an intangible assets after its
purchase/completion is recognized as an expense when incurred unless it
is probable that such expenditure will enable the asset to generate
future economic benefit in excess of its originally assessed standards
of performance and such expenditure can be measured and attributed to
the asset reliably, in which case such expenditure is added to the cost
of the asset.
F. Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation on fixed assets is provided to the extent of Depreciable
amount on straight-line method. Depreciation is provided based on
useful life of the assets as prescribed in Schedule II to the Companies
Act, 2013.Salvage Value of the assets has been taken @5% of Original
Cost as prescribed in Schedule II except in respect of the following
assets:
Particulars Salvage Value (%)
Building 20%
Car 20%
The written down value of Fixed assets whose lives have expired as at
01st April 2014 have been adjusted in the opening balance of Reserves
and Surplus amounting to Rs. 38,01,023.
G. Retirement Benefits to Employees

calculation is computed by the management based on assumption that such
benefits are payable to all eligible employees at the time of
retirement and superannuation.
b. Provident Fund/ESI
Company's contribution paid during the year to provident fund and ESIC
are charged to Profit & loss Account. There are no other obligations

rate prevailing on the date of debiting such transaction by the bank as
prescribed in AS -11 Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates
issued by ICAI.
I. Inventories
Raw materials, components, stores and spares are valued at lower of
cost and net realizable value. However, materials and other items held
for use in the production of inventories are not written down below
cost if the finished products in which they will be incorporated are
expected to be sold at or above cost.
The stock of Work-in-progress is valued on estimated cost basis and
finished goods of the Business have been valued at the lower of cost
and net realizable value. The cost has been measured on the actual cost
basis and includes cost of materials, custom duty and cost of
conversion to its present location and conditions. All other
inventories of stores, consumables, raw materials are valued at landed
cost. The stock of waste is also valued at realizable value. Net
realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course
of business, less estimated costs of completion and estimated costs
necessary to make the sale. Stock - in- Transit is valued at cost.
J. Investments
Investments are classified as long term or current based on intention of
the management at the time of purchase. Investments are classified into
current and long-term investments.
On initial investment are measured at cost. The cost comprises purchase
price and directly attributable acquisition charges. Dividend
reinvested in case of mutual funds is added to the value of investment
in mutual funds with corresponding credit is made to the profit and
loss statement.
Current investments are carried in the financial statements at lower of
cost and fair value. Long- term investments are stated at cost. A
provision for diminution is made to recognize a decline, other than
temporary, in the value of long-term investments.
On disposal of an investment, the difference between its carrying
amount and net disposal proceeds is charged or credited to the
statement of profit & loss.
The company has investments of Rs. 3000/- in NSC, Rs. 100/- in 10
Equity shares of Rs. 10 each of PalsoftInfo systems Limited and of Rs.

3 Cash Flow Statement, 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 segregate.

prescribed by AS - 22 of ICAI.
M. Impairment of Assets
An asset is considered as impaired in accordance with Accounting
Standard 28 on Impairment of Assets when at balance sheet date there
are indications of impairment and the carrying amount of the asset, or
where applicable the cash generating unit to which the asset belongs,
exceeds its recoverable amount (i.e. the higher of the asset's net
selling price and value in use).
N. Provisions and Contingent Liabilities
A provision is recognized if, as a result of a past event, the company
has a present legal obligation that can be estimated reliably, and it
is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to
settle the obligation. Provisions are determined by the best estimate
of the outflow of economic benefits required to settle the obligation
at the reporting date. Where no reliable estimate can be made, a
disclosure is made as contingent liability. A disclosure for a
contingent liability is also made when there is a possible obligation
or a present obligation that may, but probably will not, require an
outflow of resources. Where there is possible obligation or a present
obligation in respect of which the likelihood of outflow of resources
is remote, no provision or disclosure is made.
O. Prior Period Items
Prior period items which arise in the current period as a result of
'errors' or 'omissions' in the financial statements prepared in earlier
years effects of changes in estimates of which are not treated as
omission or error.

However, company has not recognized deferred tax assets/liabilities
during the year in view of negative reserve & surplus , unabsorbed

of the outflow of economic benefits required to settle the obligation
at the reporting date. Where no reliable estimate can be made, a
disclosure is made as contingent liability. A disclosure for a
contingent liability is also made when there is a possible obligation
or a present obligation that may, but probably will not, require an
outflow of resources. Where there is possible obligation or a present
obligation in respect of which the likelihood of outflow of resources
is remote, no provision or disclosure is made.
O) Prior Period Items
Prior period items which arise in the current period as a result of
''errors'' or ''omissions'' in the financial statements prepared in earlier
years effects of changes in estimates of which are not treated as
omission or error.

CORPORATE INFORMATION
Autopal Industries Limited (AIL) incorporated as a public limited
company under the provision of Companies Act 1956. The present
directors and key management persons are Shri Dharam Pal Gupta, Anup
Gupta, Ram Ratan Rawat, Shailender Kumar and Mata Deen Sharma. The
company is in the production of LED''s. Conservation of energy is the
need of the hour. Due to limited power resources, the burden of cost
on an average person is inflating day by day, which can be addressed by
using energy saving product viz. Compact Fluorescent Lamps (CFL)/ LED.
A trend of power efficient lightening equipments is following on. Urban
people are continuously using the CFL as they are cost conscious and
understanding the benefits of energy efficient measures. The Government
started making publicity in semi-urban and rural areas regarding the
