The financial statements were approved for issue in accordance with a resolution of the Board of Directors of the Company on April 28, 2023.
II Significant Accounting Policies
(a) Statement of compliance, Basis of preparation and presentation
The financial statements of the Company have been prepared to comply with the Indian Accounting standards (''Ind AS''), including the rules notified under the relevant provisions of the Companies Act, 2013, (as amended from time to time) and presentation and disclosure requirements of Division II of Schedule III to the Companies Act, 2013, (Ind AS Compliant Schedule Ill) as amended from time to time.
The Company''s financial statements are presented in Indian Rupees (f), which is also its functional currency and all values are rounded to the nearest lacs (f 00,000) leaving the scope of rounding up variations, except when otherwise indicated.
(b) Property, Plant and Equipment
(i) Property, plant and equipment is stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and accumulated
impairment losses. The initial cost of an asset comprises its purchase price or construction cost, any costs directly attributable to bringing the asset into the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management, the initial estimate of any decommissioning obligation, if any, and, for assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use, finance costs. Cost includes net of interest on capital advances and duty credits and is inclusive of freight, duties, taxes and other incidental expenses. Items such as spare parts, standby equipment and servicing equipment are recognised in accordance with this Ind AS 16 when they meet the definition of property, plant and equipment
(ii) Capital work-in-progress includes expenditure incurred in respect of property, plant and equipement that are not yet ready for their intended use and the cost of assets not put to use before the Balance Sheet date.
(iii) Depreciation/ Amortization
Depreciation on property, plant and equipment is provided on the Written Down Value (WDV) Method as per the useful life prescribed in Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013 except in respect of the following categories of assets, in whose case the 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 and accordingly the useful life of the referred Property plant and equipment has been reviewed by Chartered Engineer (CE) for the financial year 2022-23 as per below

* Machinery excludes Co-generation and solar division.
Useful life of all other property, plant and equipment is as per the Schedule II of the Companies Act, 2013.
The estimated useful life, deprecation method and residual value are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimate being accounted for on a prospective basis.
iv) Capital expenditure on enabling assets, the ownership of which is not with the Company are charged off to revenue in the accounting period of incurrence of such expenditure. However, capital expenditure on enabling assets, ownership of which rests with the company and which have been created on land not belonging to the Company is written off to the Statement of profit and loss over its approximate period of utility. For this purpose, land is not considered to be belonging to the Company, if the same is not owned or leased/ licensed to the Company.
v) An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset. Any gain or loss arising on the disposal or retirement of an item of property, plant and equipment is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and is recognised in profit or loss.
vi) The management of the company has considered it to be appropriate to seek the opinion of Chartered Engineer in order to ascertain the remaining useful life and residual value of the assets (existing as well as additions), as it may deem fit on yearly basis.
vii) On the basis of technical advice the management of the company has considered it to be appropriate to keep the residual value of all the assets at 5% (Previous Year 10%) of the historical cost.
(c) Intangible Assets
Intangible Assets are recognised, if the future economic benefits attributable to the assets are expected to flow to the company and cost of the asset can be measured reliably. All other expenditure is expensed as incurred. The same are amortised over the expected duration of benefits. Such intangible assets are measured at cost less any accumulated amortisation and impairment losses, if any.
Amortization of intangible assets such as softwares is computed on a straight-line basis, at the rates representing estimated useful life of up to 6 years.
The amortisation period and the amortisation method for an intangible asset with a finite useful life are reviewed at least at the end of each reporting period and adjusted prospectively, if appropriate.
(d) Impairment of Non-financial Assets
At the end of each reporting period, the company reviews the carrying amounts ofits tangible and intangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). When it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Company estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. When a reasonable and consistent basis of allocation can be identified, corporate assets are also allocated to individual cash-generating units, or otherwise they are allocated to the smallest Component of cash-generating units for which a reasonable and consistent allocation basis can be identified.
Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs of disposal and value in use. 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 for which the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted.
If the recoverable amount of an asset (or cash-generating unit) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset (or cash-generating unit) is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss.
(e) Financial Instruments Financial Assets
Financial assets are recognised when the company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instruments.
i. Initial recognition and measurement
The financial assets are initially measured at fair value. However, trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component are measured at transaction price. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities which are not recognised through the statement of profit and loss account are added to or deducted from the fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition.
ii. Subsequent measurement
a) Financial Assets measured at Fair Value Through Other Comprehensive Income (FVTOCI)
A Financial Asset is measured at FVTOCI if it is held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets and the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that represents solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
b) Financial Assets measured at Fair Value Through Profit or Loss (FVTPL)
A Financial Asset which is not classified in any of the above categories are measured at FVTPL. Financial assets are reclassified subsequent to their recognition, if the Company changes its business model for managing those financial assets. Changes in business model are made and applied prospectively from the reclassification date which is the first day of immediately next reporting period following the changes in business model in accordance with principles laid down under Ind AS 109 -Financial Instruments.
iii. De-recognition of financial assets
The Company derecognises 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.
iv. Impairment of financial asset
In accordance with Ind-AS 109, the Company applies Expected Credit Loss (ECL) model for measurement and recognition of impairment loss for financial assets.
v. Trade receivable
As a practical expedient the Company has adopted ''simplified approach'' using the provision matrix method for recognition of expected loss on trade receivables. The provision matrix is based on historical default rate observed over the expected life of the trade receivable and is adjusted for forward-looking estimates. At every reporting date, the historical default rates are updated and changes in the forward-looking estimates are
analysed. Further receivables are segmented for this analysis where the credit risk characteristics of the receivables are similar. on the basis of above analysis suitable provision for allowance for credit impaired is to be made.
vi. Other financial assets
Impairment loss on other financial assets is recognised based on the difference between the present value of the expected cash flows and carrying value.
i. Initial recognition and measurement
Financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value except Security deposits. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities are added to or deducted from the fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition.
ii. Subsequent measurement
The Company''s financial liabilities are not held for trading and are also carried at amortized cost using effective interest rate except security deposits.
iii. Derivative financial instruments and hedge accounting
The policy of the Company with regards to its derivative transactions, specifically interest rate swaps, currency swaps, and forward covers on External Commercial Borrowings (ECBs). The purpose of these transactions is to manage and mitigate risks associated with interest rate fluctuations and foreign exchange
exposures. This note provides an overview of our approach, accounting treatment, and the impact on financial statements.
b. Derivative instruments
The Company enters into the following derivative transactions
Interest rate swaps
Interest rate swaps are utilized to manage interest rate risks associated with our borrowings. Through these agreements, we exchange fixed and floating interest rate obligations, thereby effectively converting the interest rate exposure on our liabilities. This allows us to mitigate potential fluctuations in interest rates or minimize the interest costs.
Currency swaps
The Company swap its borrowings from INR to EUR. Currency swaps help us reduce interest costs through carry benefits, although they do not eliminate currency risk entirely. By actively managing this risk, we aim to achieve a more stable financial position and minimize the potential adverse effects of currency fluctuations.
Forward covers on External Commercial Borrowings (ECBs)
Forward covers are utilized to hedge the principal and interest repayment of our External Commercial Borrowings. These transactions involve entering into agreements to buy a specific currency at a predetermined future date and exchange rate. This strategy allows us to protect against potential exchange rate volatility, thereby ensuring the availability of funds for timely repayment of ECBs.
c. Accounting treatment
The Company accounting treatment for derivative transactions follows the guide-lines and principles outlined in the relevant accounting standards. The key considerations are as follows
Mark-to-Market (MTM) Gain/ Loss
At the balance sheet date, we calculate the fair value of our derivative instruments including currency swaps. Any resulting MTM gain or loss is recognized in the financial statements. However, no initial accounting recognition is given to these transactions.
Interest cost benefit
If there is a benefit in interest cost resulting from the derivative transactions, it is recognized accordingly. The adjustment is made in the finance cost, ensuring a fair representation of our financial position and performance.
d. Risk management
The objective of our derivative transactions is to effectively manage and mitigate risks associated with interest rate fluctuations and foreign exchange exposures. The use of these instruments is governed by our risk management policies, which include robust risk assessment, approval processes, and ongoing monitoring to ensure alignment with our strategic objectives and risk appetite.
iv. De-recognition of financial liabilities
A financial liability is de recognised when they are discharged.
v. Offsetting of financial instruments
Financial liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the 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.
vi Financial guarantee contracts
A financial guarantee contract is a contract that requires the issuer to make specified payments to reimburse the holder for a loss it incurs because a specified debtor fails to make payments when due in accordance with the terms of a debt instrument.
Financial guarantee contracts issued by a Company entity are initially measured at their fair values and, if not designated as at FVTPL, are subsequently measured at the higher of
The amount of loss allowance determined in accordance with impairment requirements of Ind AS 109; and the amount initially recognised less, when appropriate, the cumulative amount of income recognised in accordance with the principles of Ind AS 115.
(f) Fair Value Measurement
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value measurement is based on the presumption that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability takes place either
0 In the principal market for the asset or liability, or
0 In the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the asset or liability.
The principal or the most advantageous market must be accessible to/ by the Company.
The fair value of an asset or a liability is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, assuming that market participants act in their economic best interest. A fair value measurement of a nonfinancial asset takes into account a market participant''s ability to generate economic benefits by using the asset in its highest and best use or by selling it to another market participant that would use the asset in its highest and best use.
The Company uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available to measure fair value, maximising the use of relevant observable inputs and minimising the use of unobservable inputs.
All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the financial statements are categorised within the fair value hierarchy, described as follows, based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole.
Level 1 - Quoted (unadjusted) prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 - Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is directly or indirectly observable.
Level 3 - Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input
that is significant to the fair value measurement is unobservable.
(g) Revenue Recognition
Under Ind AS 115, the Company recognized revenue when (or as) a performance obligation is satisfied, i.e., when ''control'' of the goods underlying the particular performance obligation are transferred to the customer. Ind AS 115 establishes a five-step model i.e., i). Identify the contract with the customer
ii) . identify the performance obligation
iii) . determine the transaction price
iv) . Allocate the transaction price v). recognise revenue when performance obligations are satisfied to account for revenue arising from contracts with customers and requires that revenue be recognised at an amount that reflects the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring goods or services to a customer.
Company exercised judgements, taking into consideration all of the relevant facts and circumstances when applying each step of the model to contracts with their customers in accordance with Ind AS 115. The standard also specified the accounting for the incremental costs of obtaining a contract and the costs directly related to fulfilling a contract. In addition, the standard requires extensive disclosures.
Income from CER/VER
Income from Carbon Emission Reductions (CER)/ Voluntary Emission Reductions (VER) is recognized when the project is registered with the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC).
Income from REC/E-Certs Dividend
Keeping in view of the Nature REC/ E-Certs/ESCERTS/dividend income is recognised on cash realization basis unlike other Incomes.
Insurance Claims/Counter claims/ Penalties/Awards
Claims/counter-claims/penalties/ awards are accounted for in the year of its settlement/crystallize.
Insurance Claims / counter-claims / penalties/awards are shown separately under the head other income and corresponding expenses are shown under respective expense head in the Profit and Loss a/c. Revenue from these claims are recognised as and when the realization from the insurer is ascertained.
Export incentives
Export incentive scrips in case of export are valued on the specific rates allowed on the relevant item of export.
(h) Inventories
Raw Materials, Stores and Spares
Raw Materials, Stores and Spares are valued at lower of cost and net realizable value in accordance with Indian Accounting Standard. 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. Cost of Raw materials is determined on a moving weighted average basis and cost of chemicals, stores and spares is determined on transaction moving weighted average.
Work-in-Progress and Finished Goods
Lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost includes direct materials and labour and a proportion of manufacturing overheads based on normal operating capacity. Cost of finished goods except lying in the factory premises includes Taxes, Duties etc. on which input credit is not available.
By Products and waste
By products and waste are valued at net realizable value.
Net realisable value represents the estimated selling price for inventories
less all estimated costs of completion and costs necessary to make the sale.
Agriculture Operations Inventory valuation for agricultural produce are as follows:
i. Eucalyptus and poplar trees: Trees has been categorised based on their ageing. Company has follows mix approach i.e., cost and fair value approach. Trees ageing below 3 years are valued at cost and trees ageing more than 3 years are valued on the basis of fair value less cost to sell of the trees.
Fair value of the trees at different age group is based on the realisable value of the tree at that age group.
ii. Crops: Inventory for crops are recognised when the same is full grown up and is under saleable condition at fair market value less cost to sell.
(i) Foreign Currency Transactions
Initial Recognition
Foreign currency transactions are recorded in the reporting currency, by applying to the foreign currency amount the exchange rate between the reporting currency and the foreign currency at the date of the transaction.
Conversion
Foreign currency monetary items are reported using the closing rate. Nonmonetary items which are carried in terms of historical cost denominated in a foreign currency are reported using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction.
Exchange Differences
Exchange differences arising on the settlement of monetary items or on restatement of reporting Company''s monetary items at rates different from those at which they were initially recorded during the year or reported in previous financial statements, are recognized as income or as expenses in the year in which they arise.
Forward Exchange Contracts
In respect of forward exchange contracts, other than the liabilities incurred for acquiring fixed assets from a country outside India, entered into by the Company is recognized as gain or loss over the period of contract and charged to the statement of profit and loss in the year in which the exchange rates change. However if exchange rate pertains to acquiring fixed assets then such difference is adjusted in the carrying amount of the respective fixed assets.
Any profit or loss arising on cancellation or renewal of forward exchange contract is recognized as income or as expense for the year.
(j) Government Grants
Government grants are not recognised until there is reasonable assurance that the Company will comply with the conditions attaching to them and that the grants will be received.
Government grants related to income are deferred and recognised in profit or loss over the period necessary to match them with the cost that they are intended to compensate and presented within other income.
Government Grants relating to the specific assets are disclosed as deduction from the gross value of the assets concerned
(k) Employee Benefits
i. Short-term obligations
All employee benefits payable / available within twelve months of rendering the service such as salaries, wages and bonus etc., are classified as short-term employee benefits and are recognised in the statement of profit and loss in the period in which the employee renders the related service.
ii. Defined contribution plans
A defined contribution plan is a post-employment benefit plan under which an entity pays fixed contributions into a separate entity and will have no legal or constructive obligation to pay further amounts. 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 employees. The Company makes specified contributions towards the following schemes:
Employees'' State Insurance (ESI)
The Company has a scheme of state insurance for its employees, registered with the regional state insurance commissioner. The Company''s contribution to the state insurance is charged to the statement of profit and loss every year.
Employees'' Provident Fund (EPF)
All directly recruited employees of the Company are entitled to receive benefits under the provident fund, a defined contribution plan. Both employee and employer make monthly contribution to the plan at a predetermined rate of employee''s basic salary and dearness allowance. These contributions to provident fund are administered by the provident fund commissioner. Employer''s Contribution to provident fund is expensed in the statement of profit and loss as and when incurred.
Labour Welfare Fund
The Company makes contribution to labour welfare fund scheme in accordance with Labour Welfare Fund Act. The Company''s contribution to the welfare fund is charged to the statement of profit and loss every year.
iii. Defined benefit plans Gratuity
Gratuity is a post-employment benefit and is in the nature of defined benefit plan. The liability recognized in the balance sheet in respect of gratuity is the present value of the defined benefit obligation at the balance sheet date together with adjustments for unrecognized actuarial gains or losses and past service costs.
Leave Encashment
Leave encashment are post-employment benefit and are in the nature of defined benefit plans. The liability recognized in the balance sheet in respect of compensated absences is the present value of the defined benefit obligation at the balance sheet date together with adjustments for unrecognized actuarial gains or losses and past service costs.
Liability for gratuity and leave salary benefits payable to employees is provided for on accrual basis using the Projected Accrued Benefit Method (Projected Unit Credit Method with control period of one year) done by an independent actuary as at the annual closing Balance Sheet date.
Remeasurement, comprising actuarial gains and losses the effect of the changes to the asset ceiling (if applicable) and the return on plan assets (excluding interest), is reflected immediately in the balance sheet with a charge or credit recognised in other comprehensive income in the period in which they occur. Remeasurement recognised in other comprehensive income is reflected immediately in retained earnings and will not be reclassified to profit or loss. Past service cost is recognised in profit or loss in the period of a plan amendment. Net interest is calculated by applying
the discount rate at the beginning of the period to the net defined benefit liability or asset. Defined benefit costs are categorised as follows:
0 Service cost (including current service cost, past service cost, as well as gains and losses on curtailments and settlements).
0 Net interest expense or income.
0 Remeasurement.
The Company presents the first two components of defined benefit costs in profit or loss in the line item [''employee benefits expenses]. Curtailment gains and losses are accounted for as past service costs.
The retirement benefit obligation recognised in the balance sheet represents the actual deficit or surplus in the company''s defined benefit plans. Any surplus resulting from this calculation is limited to the present value of any economic benefits available in the form of refunds from the plans or reductions in future contributions to the plans.
Termination benefits are immediately recognised in the statement of profit or loss account. A liability for a termination benefit is recognised at the earlier of when the entity can no longer withdraw the offer of the termination benefit and when the entity recognises any related restructuring costs.
(l) Taxes on Income
Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.
Current tax
The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from ''profit before tax'' as reported in the statement of profit and loss because of items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other
years and items that are never taxable or deductible under the provisions of Income Tax Act. The Company''s 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 assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax base used in the computation of taxable profit. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are generally recognised for all deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary differences can be utilised. Such deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognised if the temporary difference arises from the initial recognition 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 the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.
Deferred tax liabilities and assets are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in which the liability is settled or the asset realised, based on tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.
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.
Current and deferred tax are recognised in 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.
Minimum Alternative Tax (''MAT'') expense under the provisions of the Income-tax Act, 1961 is recognised as an asset when it is probable that future economic benefit associated with it in the form of adjustment of future income tax liability, will flow to the Company and the asset can be measured reliably. MAT credit entitlement is set off to the extent allowed in the year in which the Company becomes liable to pay income taxes at the enacted tax rates. MAT credit entitlement is reviewed at each reporting date and is written down to reflect the amount that is reasonably certain to be set off in future years against the future income tax liability. MAT Credit Entitlement has been presented as Deferred Tax in Balance Sheet.
(m) Borrowing Cost
Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of the qualifying assets, which are assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use or sale, are added to the cost of those assets, until such time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale.
All other borrowing costs are recognized in the Statement of Profit or Loss in the period in which they are incurred.
(n) Dividends
The Company recognises a liability to make dividend distributions to equity holders of the Company when the distribution is authorised and the distribution is no longer at the discretion of the Company. As per the corporate laws in India a distribution is authorised
when it is approved by the shareholders, However, Board ofDirectors of a Company may declare interim dividend during any financial year out of the surplus in statement of profit and loss and out of the profits of the financial year in which such interim dividend is sought to be declared. A corresponding amount is recognised directly in equity.
(o) Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets
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.
The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. When 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.
Onerous contracts
A contract is considered as onerous when the expected economic benefits to be derived by the company from the contract are lower than the unavoidable cost of meeting its obligations under the contract. The provision for an onerous contract is measured at the lower of
the expected cost of terminating the contract and the expected net cost of continuing with the contract. Before a provision is established, the company recognises any impairment loss on the assets associated with that contract.
a. Contingent Liabilities
Contingent liabilities are disclosed when there is a possible obligation arising from past events, the existence of which will be confirmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of the Company or 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.
b. Contingent Assets
Contingent assets are not recognized in the accounts. However they are disclosed when the possible right to receive exists.
(p) Earnings Per Share (EPS)
Basic earnings per share (''EPS'') is computed by dividing the net profit or loss without impact of Other Comprehensive Income for the year attributable to equity shareholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year.
Diluted EPS is computed using the weighted average number of equity and dilutive equity equivalent shares outstanding during the period except where the result would be anti-dilutive.
(q) Equity Share Capital
Proceeds from issuance of ordinary shares are recognised as equity share capital in equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issuance of new equity shares are recognized as a deduction from equity, net of any tax effects.
(r) Leases
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.
The Company as a lessee
Right of use assets and lease liabilities
For any new contracts entered into on or after 1st April, 2019, the Company considers whether a contract is, or contains a lease. A lease is defined as ''a contract, or part of a contract, that conveys the right to use an asset (the underlying asset) for a period of time in exchange for consideration''. The Company enters into leasing arrangements for various assets. To assess whether a contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset, the Company assesses whether: (i) the contract involves the use of an identified asset (ii) the Company obtains substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the asset through the period of the lease and (iii) the Company has the right to direct the use of the asset.
Recognition and initial measurement At lease commencement date, the Company recognizes a right-of-use asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet. The right-of-use asset is measured at cost, which is made up of the initial measurement of the lease liability, any initial direct costs incurred by the Company, an estimate of any costs to dismantle and remove the asset at the end of the lease (if any), and any lease payments made in advance of the lease commencement date (net of any incentives received).
Certain lease arrangements includes the options to extend or terminate the lease before the end of the lease term. ROU assets and lease liabilities includes these options when it is reasonably certain that they will be exercised.
Subsequent measurement
The Company depreciates the right-of-use assets on a straight-line basis from the lease commencement date to the earlier of the end of the useful life of the
right-of-use asset or the end of the lease term. The Company also assesses the right-of-use asset for impairment when such indicators exist.
At lease commencement date, the Company measures the lease liability at the present value of the lease payments unpaid at that date, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease if that rate is readily available or the Company''s incremental borrowing rate. Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability are made up of fixed payments (including in substance fixed payments) and variable payments based on an index or rate. Subsequent to initial measurement, the liability will be reduced for payments made and increased for interest. It is remeasured to reflect any reassessment or modification, or if there are changes in in-substance fixed payments. When the lease liability is re-measured, the corresponding adjustment is reflected in the right-of-use asset.
The Company has elected to account for short-term leases and leases oflow-value assets using the practical expedients. Instead of recognizing a right-of-use asset and lease liability, the payments in relation to these are recognized as an expense in standalone statement of profit and loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Where the Company is the lessor
Leases in which the Company does not transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of an asset are classified as operating leases. Rental income from operating lease is recognized on a straight-line basis or another systematic basis as per the terms of the relevant lease. Initial direct costs incurred in negotiating and arranging an operating lease are added to the carrying amount of the leased asset and recognized over the lease term on the same basis as rental income. Contingent
rents are recognized as revenue in the period in which they are earned.
Leases are classified as finance leases when substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership transfer from the Company to the lessee. Amounts due from lessees under finance leases are recorded as receivables at the Company''s net investment in the leases. Finance lease income is allocated to accounting periods so as to reflect a constant periodic rate of return on the net investment outstanding in respect of the lease.
(s) 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.
(t) Cash and Cash Equivalent
For the purpose of presentation in the cash flow statement, cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, demand deposits with banks, other short term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.
(u) Loan to Employees and Key Managerial Personnel (KMP)
The Company has policy to provide Loan to Employees and KMP as per the provisions of the Companies Act 2013. In case a period of loan is more than twelve months, a discount rate is applied to to check the variation where the interest being is charged is different from the discount rate. if any variation is assessed then same will be recognised as income or expense in the statement of profit and loss account.
(v) Significant management judgement in applying accounting policies and estimation uncertainty
i. Significant management judgements
When preparing the financial statements, management undertakes a number of judgements, estimates and assumptions about the recognition and measurement of assets, liabilities, income and expenses.
The following are significant management judgements in applying the accounting policies of the Company that have the most significant effect on the financial statements.
Recognition of deferred tax assets: The extent to which deferred tax assets can be recognised is based on an assessment of the probability of the Company''s future taxable income against which the deferred tax assets can be utilised.
ii. Estimation
Information about estimates and assumptions that have the most significant effect on recognition and measurement of assets, liabilities, income and expenses is provided below. Actual result may be substantially different.
Defined benefit obligation: Management estimates of these obligation is based on a number of critical underlying assumptions such as standard rates of inflation, medical cost trends, mortality, discount rate and anticipation of future salary increases. Variation in these assumptions may significantly impact the defined benefit obligation amount and the annual defined benefit expenses.
Provisions: At each balance sheet date based on management judgement, changes in facts and legal aspects, the company assesses the requirement of provisions against the outstanding warranties and guarantees. However the actual future /outcome may be differ from this judgement.
(w) Current and Non Current Classification
The Company presents assets and liabilities in the Balance Sheet based on Current/ Non-Current classification.
An asset is treated as Current when it is
- Expected to be realised or intended to be sold or consumed in normal operating cycle;
- Held primarily for the purpose of trading;
- Expected to be realised within twelve months after the reporting period, or
- Cash or cash equivalent unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period.
All other assets are classified as noncurrent.
A liability is current when:
- It is expected to be settled in normal operating cycle;
- It is held primarily for the purpose of trading;
- It is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period, or
- There is no unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period.
The Company classifies all other liabilities as non-current.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as non-current assets and liabilities.
(x) Recent accounting pronouncements
Ministry of Corporate Affairs (âMCAâ) notifies new standard or amendments to the existing standards under Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules as issued from time to time. On March 31, 2023, MCA amended the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules,
2015 by issuing the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Amendment Rules, 2023, applicable from April 1, 2023, as below:
0 Ind AS 1 - Presentation of Financial Statements
The amendments require companies to disclose their material accounting policies rather than their significant accounting policies. Accounting policy information, together with other information, is material when it can reasonably be expected to influence decisions of primary users of general purpose financial statements. The Company does not expect this amendment to have any significant impact in its financial statements.
The amendments clarify how companies account for deferred tax on transactions such as leases and decommissioning obligations. The amendments narrowed the scope of the recognition exemption in paragraphs 15 and 24 of Ind AS 12 (recognition exemption) so that it no longer applies to transactions that, on initial recognition, give rise
to equal taxable and deductible temporary differences. The Company is evaluating the impact, if any, in its financial statements.
0 Ind AS 8 - Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors
The amendments will help entities to distinguish between accounting policies and accounting estimates. The definition of a change in accounting estimates has been replaced with a definition of accounting estimates. Under the new definition, accounting estimates are âmonetary amounts in financial statements that are subject to measurement uncertainty''''. Entities develop accounting estimates if accounting policies require items in financial statements to be measured in a way that involves measurement uncertainty. The Company does not expect this amendment to have any significant impact in its financial statements.
The Company has evaluated the above amendments and there is no material impact on its standalone financial statements.
Mar 31, 2018
1: Significant Accounting Policies:-
1.1 Statement of compliance, Basis of Preparation & Presentation:
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Indian Accounting Standards (Ind ASsâ) as notified under Section 133 of the Act read with Rule 3 of the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 and Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Amendment Rules, 2016.
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention on accrual basis except for certain financial instruments and biological assets which are measured at fair value as explained in Note 52. Historical cost is generally based on the fair value of the consideration given in exchange for goods and services.The Company has adopted all the Ind AS standards and the adoption was carried out in accordance with Ind AS 101 First Time adoption of Indian Accounting Standards. Upto the year ended March 31, 2017 the Company prepared its financial statement in accordance with the requirement of previous GAAP which includes standards notified under Company (Accounting Standards) Rules, 2006. These are Companyâs first Ind AS financial statements. The date of transition to Ind AS is April 1, 2016. The details of optional exemptions and certain exceptions availed on first time adoption are mentioned in Note 52
1.2 Property, plant and equipment:
(i) Property, plant and equipment is stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. The initial cost of an asset comprises its purchase price or construction cost, any costs directly attributable to bringing the asset into the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management, the initial estimate of any decommissioning obligation, if any, and, for assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use, finance costs. Cost includes net of interest on capital advances and duty credits and is inclusive of freight, duties, taxes and other incidental expenses. Items such as spare parts, stand-by equipment and servicing equipment are recognised in accordance with this Ind AS 16 when they meet the definition of property, plant and equipment. On transition to Ind AS, the Company has adopted fair value as deemed cost of property, plant and equipment as at 1st April 2016 under Ind AS 101 and revisited and revised useful life of various categories of assets. Subsequent to adoption of fair value as deemed cost of property, plant and equipment as at 1st April 2016 under Ind AS 101, property, plant and equipment are measured in accordance with Ind AS 16âs requirements for cost model.
(ii) Capital work in progress includes the cost of fixed assets that are not yet ready for their intended use and the cost of assets not put to use before the Balance Sheet date.
Depreciation/ Amortization:
Depreciation on tangible property, plant and equipment has been provided on the Written Down Value Method as per the useful life prescribed in Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013 except in respect of the following categories of assets, in whose case the 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 and accordingly the useful life of the referred Property plant and equipment has been reviewed by Chartered Engineer for the financial year 2017-18 as per below :-
Useful life of all other Assets is as per the Schedule II of the Companies Act, 2013
(iv) Land leases where the lease term is for the significant economic life of the asset are considered as finance leases. Such leases are included in property plant and equipment and are depreciated over the lease period. Freehold land or perpetual land leases are not depreciated. Land leases where the lease term is not for the significant economic life of land are considered as operating leases and are classified as prepayments. Such leases are amortized over the lease terms.
The estimated useful life ,deprecation method and residual value are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimate being accounted for on a prospective basis.
v) Capital expenditure on enabling assets, the ownership of which is not with the Company are charged off to revenue in the accounting period of incurrence of such expenditure. However, capital expenditure on enabling assets, ownership of which rests with the company and which have been created on land not belonging to the Company is written off to the Statement of Profit & Loss over its approximate period of utility. For this purpose, land is not considered to be belonging to the company, if the same is not owned or leased/licensed to the company.
(vi) An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset. Any gain or loss arising on the disposal or retirement of an item of property, plant and equipment is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and is recognised in profit or loss.
1.3.2 The management of the company has considered it to be appropriate to seek the opinion of chartered engineer in order to ascertain the remaining useful life and residual value of the assets (existing as well as additions), as it may deem fit.
1.3.3 On the basis of technical advice the management of the company has considered it to be appropriate to keep the residual value of all the assets at 10% of the historical cost.
1.4 Intangible Assets:
Expenditure on computer software, which is not an integral part of hardware, is capitalised as an intangible asset. The cost of software includes license fee and implementation cost and is capitalised in the year of its implementation. Patent and Software is amortized over useful life of assets over which economic benefits will be derived. The estimated useful life and amortisation method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimate being accounted for on a prospective basis.
Patents and trademarks, etc. are accounted at their cost of acquisition and amortized over their estimated economic life not exceeding 10 years.
1.5 Impairment of Non-financial Assets:
At the end of each reporting period, the company reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible and intangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). When it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Company estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. When a reasonable and consistent basis of allocation can be identified, corporate assets are also allocated to individual cash-generating units, or otherwise they are allocated to the smallest Component of cash-generating units for which a reasonable and consistent allocation basis can be identified.
Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs of disposal and value in use. 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 for which the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted.
If the recoverable amount of an asset (or cash-generating unit) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset (or cash-generating unit) is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss.
1.6 Financial Instruments
1.6.1 Financial assets
Financial assets are recognised when the company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instruments.
Initial recognition and measurement
Financial assets are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities which are not recognised through profit & Loss account are added to or deducted from the fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition.
1.6.2 De-recognition of financial assets
The Company derecognises 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.
1.6.3 Impairment of financial asset
In accordance with Ind-AS 109, the Company applies Expected Credit Loss (ECL) model for measurement and recognition of impairment loss for financial assets.
Trade receivable
As a practical expedient the Company has adopted âsimplified approachâ using the provision matrix method for recognition of expected loss on trade receivables. The provision matrix is based on historical default rate observed over the expected life of the trade receivable and is adjusted for forward-looking estimates. At every reporting date, the historical default rates are updated and changes in the forward-looking estimates are analysed. Further receivables are segmented for this analysis where the credit risk characteristics of the receivables are similar.
1.6.4 Other financial assets
Impairment loss on other financial assets is recognised based on the difference between the present value of the expected cash flows and carrying value.
1.6.5 Financial Liabilities
i. Initial recognition and measurement
Financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value except Trade Securities. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities are added to or deducted from the fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition.
ii. Subsequent measurement
The Companyâs financial liabilities are not held for trading and are also carried at amortized cost using effective interest rate except Trade Securities.
1.6.6 De-recognition of financial liabilities

1.6.8 Financial guarantee contracts
A financial guarantee contract is a contract that requires the issuer to make specified payments to reimburse the holder for a loss it incurs because a specified debtor fails to make payments when due in accordance with the terms of a debt instrument.
Financial guarantee contracts issued by a Company entity are initially measured at their fair values and, if not designated as at FVTPL, are subsequently measured at the higher of:
the amount of loss allowance determined in accordance with impairment requirements of Ind AS 109; and the amount initially recognised less, when appropriate, the cumulative amount of income recognised in accordance with the principles of Ind AS 18.
1.7 Revenue Recognition
Revenue is measured at fair value of the consideration received or receivable. The Company recognizes revenue from sale of products net of discounts, sales incentives, rebates granted, returns, VAT, sales tax and duties when the products are delivered to customer or when delivered to a carrier for export sale, which is when significant risks and rewards of ownership pass to the customer, Sale of product is presented gross of manufacturing taxes like excise duty, wherever applicable.
Income from CER/VER
Income from Carbon Emission Reductions (CER)/ Voluntary Emission Reductions (VER) is recognized when the project is registered with the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC).
Income from REC/E-Certs/Dividend

Insurance Claims/Counter-claims/Penalties/ Awards:
Claims/counter-claims/penalties/awards are accounted for in the year of its settlement.
Insurance Claims/counter-claims/penalties/ awards are shown separately under the head other income and corresponding expenses are shown under respective expense head in the Profit and Loss a/c.Revenue from these claims are recognised as and when the realization from the insurer is ascertained.
1.8 Valuation of Inventories:-
Raw Materials, Stores & Spares:
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. Cost of Raw materials is determined on a monthly moving weighted average basis and cost of chemicals, stores and spares is determined on transaction moving weighted average.
Work-in-Progress and Finished Goods:
Lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost includes direct materials and labour and a proportion of manufacturing overheads based on normal operating capacity. Cost of finished goods except lying in the factory premises includes excise duty.
By Products and Waste:
Net realizable value
Net realisable value represents the estimated selling price for inventories less all estimated costs of completion and costs necessary to make the sale.
Agriculture Operations
Inventory valuation for agricultural produce are as follows:
i. Eucalyptus & poplar trees: Trees has been categorised based on their ageing. Company has follows mix approach i.e. cost and fair value approach. Trees ageing below 3 years are valued at cost and trees ageing more than 3 years are valued on the basis of fair value less cost to sell of the trees.
Fair value of the trees at different age group is based on the realisable value of the tree at that age group.
ii. Crops: Inventory for crops are recognised when the same is full grown up and is under saleable condition at fair market value less cost to sell.
1.9 Foreign Currency Transactions
Initial Recognition
Foreign currency transactions are recorded in the reporting currency, by applying to the foreign currency amount the exchange rate between the reporting currency and the foreign currency at the date of the transaction.
Conversion
Foreign currency monetary items are reported using the closing rate. Non-monetary items which are carried in terms of historical cost denominated in a foreign currency are reported using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction.
Exchange Differences
Exchange differences arising on the settlement of monetary items or on restatement of reporting Companyâs monetary items at rates different from those at which they were initially recorded during the year or reported in previous financial statements, are recognized as income or as expenses in the year in which they arise.
Forward Exchange Contracts
In respect of forward exchange contracts entered into by the Company, the difference between the contracted rate and the rate at the date of transaction is recognized as gain or loss over the period of contract except for difference in respect of liabilities incurred for acquiring fixed assets from a country outside India, in which case such difference is adjusted in the carrying amount of the respective fixed assets. Exchange differences on such contracts are recognized in the statement of profit and loss in the year in which the exchange rates change. Any profit or loss arising on cancellation or renewal of forward exchange contract is recognized as income or as expense for the year.
1.10 Government Grants:
Government grants are not recognised until there is reasonable assurance that the Company will comply with the conditions attaching to them and that the grants will be received.
Government grants related to income are deferred and recognised in profit or loss over the period necessary to match them with the cost that they are intended to compensate and presented within other income.
Government Grants relating to the specific assets are disclosed as deduction from the gross value of the assets concerned.
1.11 Employee Benefits
i. Liability for gratuity, leave salary and postretirement medical benefits payable to employees is provided for on accrual basis using the Projected Accrued Benefit Method (Projected Unit Credit Method with control period of one year) done by an independent actuary as at the Balance Sheet date.
Remeasurement, comprising actuarial gains and losses the effect of the changes to the asset ceiling (if applicable) and the return on plan assets (excluding interest), is reflected immediately in the balance sheet with a charge or credit recognised in other comprehensive income in the period in which they occur. Remeasurement recognised in other comprehensive income is reflected immediately in retained earnings and will not be reclassified to profit or loss. Past service cost is recognised in profit or loss in the period of a plan amendment. Net interest is calculated by applying the discount rate at the beginning of the period to the net defined benefit liability or asset. Defined benefit costs are categorised as follows:
*Service cost (including current service cost, past service cost, as well as gains and losses on curtailments and settlements);
*net interest expense or income; and
*Remeasurement.
The Company presents the first two components of defined benefit costs in profit or loss in the line item [âemployee benefits expenses]. Curtailment gains and losses are accounted for as past service costs.
The retirement benefit obligation recognised in the balance sheet represents the actual deficit or surplus in the companyâs defined benefit plans. Any surplus resulting from this calculation is limited to the present value of any economic benefits available in the form of refunds from the plans or reductions in future contributions to the plans.
Termination benefits are immediately recognised in the statement of profit or loss account. A liability for a termination benefit is recognised at the earlier of when the entity can no longer withdraw the offer of the termination benefit and when the entity recognises any related restructuring costs.
ii. The undiscounted amount of short term employee benefits expected to be paid for the services rendered are recognized as an expense during the period when the employees render the services.
1.12 Taxes on Income:
Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.
Current tax
The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from âprofit before taxâ as reported in the statement of profit and loss because of items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and items that are never taxable or deductible. The Companyâs 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 assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax base used in the computation of taxable profit. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are generally recognised for all deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary differences can be utilised. Such deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognised if the temporary difference arises from the initial recognition 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 the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.
Deferred tax liabilities and assets are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in which the liability is settled or the asset realised, based on tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.
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.
Current and deferred tax for the year
Current and deferred tax are recognised in 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.
1.13 Borrowing cost
Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of the qualifying assets, which are assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use or sale, are added to the cost of those assets, until such time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale.
All other borrowing costs are recognized in the Statement of Profit or Loss in the period in which they are incurred.
1.14 Export incentive scrips in case of export are valued on the specific rates allowed on the relevant item of export.
1.15 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities & Contingent Assets:
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.
The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. When 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.
Onerous contracts
A contract is considered as onerous when the expected economic benefits to be derived by the company from the contract are lower than the unavoidable cost of meeting its obligations under the contract. The provision for an onerous contract is measured at the lower of the expected cost of terminating the contract and the expected net cost of continuing with the contract. Before a provision is established, the company recognises any impairment loss on the assets associated with that contract.
a. Contingent Liabilities
Contingent liabilities are 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 or 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.
b. Contingent Assets
Contingent assets are not recognized in the accounts. However they are disclosed when the possible right to receive exists.
1.16 Earnings per share (EPS)
Basic earnings per share (âEPSâ) is computed by dividing the net profit or loss without impact of Other Comprehensive Income for the year attributable to equity shareholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year.
Diluted EPS is computed using the weighted average number of equity and dilutive equity equivalent shares outstanding during the period except where the result would be anti-dilutive.
1.17 Leases
Leases are classified as finance leases whenever the terms of the lease transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the lessee. All other leases are classified as operating leases. Operating lease payments are recognized as an expense in the statement of profit & loss on a Straight-Line basis over the lease term.
The Company as lessee
Assets held under finance leases are initially recognised as assets of the Company at their fair value at the inception of the lease or, if lower, at the present value of the minimum lease payments. The corresponding liability to the lessor is included in the Company balance sheet as a finance lease obligation.
Lease payments are apportioned between finance expenses and reduction of the lease obligation so as to achieve a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. Finance expenses are recognised immediately in profit or loss, unless they are directly attributable to qualifying assets, in which case they are capitalised in accordance with the Companyâs general policy on borrowing costs. Contingent rentals are recognised as expenses in the periods in which they are incurred.
Rental expense from operating leases is generally recognised on a straight-line basis over the term of the relevant lease. Where the rentals are structured solely to increase in line with expected general inflation to compensate for the lessorâs expected inflationary cost increases, such increases are recognised in the year in which such benefits accrue. Contingent rentals arising under operating leases are recognised as an expense in the period in which they are incurred.
In the event that lease incentives are received to enter into operating leases, such incentives are recognised as a liability. The aggregate benefit of incentives is recognised as a reduction of rental expense on a straight-line basis, except where another systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern in which economic benefits from the leased asset are consumed.
1.18 Segment reporting
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker.
1.19 Cash and Cash Equivalent
For the purpose of presentation in the cash flow statement, cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, demand deposits with banks, other short term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.
1.20 Loan to Employees and KMP
The Company has policy to provide Loan to Employees and KMP as per the provisions of the Companies Act 2013.
1.21 Significant management judgement in applying accounting policies and estimation uncertainty
i. Significant management judgements
When preparing the financial statements, management undertakes a number of judgements, estimates and assumptions about the recognition and measurement of assets, liabilities, income and expenses.
The following are significant management judgements in applying the accounting policies of the Company that have the most significant effect on the financial statements.
Recognition of deferred tax assets: The extent to which deferred tax assets can be recognised is based on an assessment of the probability of the Companyâs future taxable income against which the deferred tax assets can be utilised.
ii. Estimation certainty
Information about estimates and assumptions that have the most significant effect on recognition and measurement of assets, liabilities, income and expenses is provided below. Actual result may be substantially different.
Defined benefit obligation: Management estimates of these obligation is based on a number of critical underlying assumptions such as standard rates of inflation, medical cost trends, mortality, discount rate and anticipation of future salary increases. Variation in these assumptions may significantly impact the defined benefit obligation amount and the annual defined benefit expenses.
Provisions: At each balance sheet date based on management judgement, changes in facts and legal aspects, the company assesses the requirement of provisions against the outstanding warranties and guarantees. However the actual future / outcome may be differ from this judgement.
Depreciation is provided in accordance with the companies Act, 2013 except otherwise specifically stated in policy.
Freehold land and buildings with a carrying amount of Rs. 3,132.82 Lacs as at March 31, 2018:( Rs.3,133.61 Lacs as at 31st March 2017 ; as at April 1, 2016: Rs 2,332.31 Lacs.) have been under equitable mortgage to secure borrowings of the Company.

1.5 Impairment of Fixed Assets:
Consideration is given at each balance sheet date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment of the carrying amount of the Companyâs Fixed Assets. If any indication exists, an assets recoverable amount is estimated. An impairment loss is recognized whenever the carrying amount of assets exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the greater of the net selling price and value in use. In assessing value in use the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value based on an appropriate discount factor. Impairment loss is recognized in the Statement of Profit & Loss.
