Mar 31, 2023
Provisions for legal claims are recognised when the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past
events, it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation and the amount can be reliably estimated.
Provisions are not recognised for future operating losses.
Provisions are measured at the present value of managementâs best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the present
obligation at the end of the reporting period. Provisions are discounted only if the impact of discounting is considered material.
(i) Short-term obligations
Liabilities for wages and salaries, including non-monetary benefits that are expected to be settled wholly within 12 months
after the end of the period in which the employees render the related service are recognised in respect of employees''
services up to the end of the reporting period and are measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities
are settled. The liabilities are presented as current employee benefit obligations in the balance sheet.
(ii) Other long-term employee benefit obligations
The liabilities for earned leave and sick leave are not expected to be settled wholly within 12 months after the end of the
period in which the employees render the related service. These are recognised on the basis of the actual obligations
calculated and are presented as current liabilities in the balance sheet if the entity does not have an unconditional right
to defer settlement for at least twelve months after the reporting period, regardless of when the actual settlement is
expected to occur.
(iii) Post-employment obligations
The Company operates the following post-employment schemes:
(a) defined benefit plans such as gratuity and
(b) defined contribution plans such as provident & pension fund, superannuation fund and employee deposit linked
insurance scheme.
Gratuity obligations
The Company, on a prudent basis, accrues its gratuity obligations on the basis of actual liability using gross undiscounted
basis. Accordingly, the changes in the gratuity obligations are recognized in profit or loss.
Defined contribution plans
The Company pays provident, pension, superannuation and employee deposit linked insurance scheme contributions to
publicly administered provident & pension fund, contribution to superannuation fund and employee deposit linked insurance
scheme as per local regulations. The Company has no further payment obligations once the contributions have been paid.
The contributions are accounted for as defined contribution plans and the contributions are recognised as employee benefit
expense when they are due. Prepaid contributions are recognised as an asset to the extent that a cash refund or a
reduction in the future payments is available.
Equity shares are classified as equity.
Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from
the proceeds.
(i) Basic earnings/ (loss) per share
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing:
⢠the profit/(loss) attributable to owners of the Company
⢠by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the financial year, adjusted for bonus elements
in equity shares issued during the year.
(ii) Diluted earnings/ (loss) per share
Diluted earnings/ (loss) per share adjusts the figures used in the determination of basic earnings/ (loss) per share to take
into account:
⢠the after income tax effect of interest and other financing costs associated with dilutive potential equity
shares, and
⢠the weighted average number of additional equity shares that would have been outstanding assuming the
conversion of all dilutive potential equity shares.
All amounts disclosed in the financial statements and notes have been rounded off to the nearest lakhs as per the
requirement of Schedule III, unless otherwise stated.
The preparation of financial statements requires the use of accounting estimates which, by definition, will seldom equal the actual
results. Management also needs to exercise judgement in applying the Company''s accounting policies.
This note provides an overview of the areas that involved a higher degree of judgement or complexity, and of items which are more
likely to be materially adjusted due to estimates and assumptions turning out to be different than those originally assessed.
In the process of applying the Companyâs accounting policies, management has made the following judgements, which have the most
significant effect on the amounts recognized in the financial statements:
Refer Note 33 of the financial statements.
The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date, that have a significant
risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year, are described below.
The Company based its assumptions and estimates on parameters available when the financial statements were prepared. Existing
circumstances and assumptions about future developments, however, may change due to market changes or circumstances arising
that are beyond the control of the Company. Such changes are reflected in the assumptions when they occur.
When the fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities recorded in the balance sheet cannot be measured based on quoted
prices in active markets, their fair value is measured using valuation techniques including the DCF model. The inputs to these
models are taken from observable markets where possible, but where this is not feasible, a degree of judgment is required in
establishing fair values. Judgments include considerations of inputs such as liquidity risk, credit risk and volatility. Changes in
assumptions about these factors could affect the reported fair value of financial instruments. Refer note 26 for further disclosures.

Note 1: General Information
Sharp India Limited (''the Company'') was incorporated on July 5, 1985. The Company is principally engaged in the manufacture and sale of light emitting diode televisions (âLED TVsâ) and Air-conditioners (âACsâ).
Sharp Corporation (''Sharp''), incorporated in Japan, holds 75 per cent of the issued share capital of the Company. The Company has a technical collaboration with Sharp for the manufacture of âLED TVsâ and âACsâ.
Note 2 : Critical estimates and judgements
The preparation of financial statements requires the use of accounting estimates which, by definition, will seldom equal the actual results. Management also needs to exercise judgement in applying the Company''s accounting policies.
This note provides an overview of the areas that involved a higher degree of judgement or complexity, and of items which are more likely to be materially adjusted due to estimates and assumptions turning out to be different than those originally assessed.
Judgements
In the process of applying the Companyâs accounting policies, management has made the following judgements, which have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the financial statements:
1. Segment Reporting
Ind AS 108 Operating Segments requires Management to determine reportable segments for the purpose of disclosure in the financial statements based on internal reporting reviewed by the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) to assess performance and allocate resources. The standard also requires Management to make judgements with respect to aggregation of certain operating segments into one or more reportable segment.
Operating segments used to present segment information are identified based on the internal reports used and reviewed by the Board of Directors to assess performance and allocate resources. The management has aggregated its operating segment into one reportable segment.
2. Legal Contingencies
The Company has received various orders and notices from tax authorities in respect of direct taxes and indirect taxes. The outcome of these matters may have a material effect on the financial position, results of operation or cash flows. Management regularly analyses current information about these matters and provides provisions for probable losses including the estimate of legal expense to resolve such matters. In making the decision regarding the need for loss provisions, management considers the degree of probability of an unfavorable outcome and the ability to make a sufficiently reliable estimate of the amount of loss. The filing of a suit or formal assertion of a claim against the Company or disclosure of any such suit or assertion, does not automatically indicate that a provision of a loss may be appropriate.
3. Going concern Refer Note 34
Estimates and assumptions
The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year, are described below. The Company based its assumptions and estimates on parameters available when the financial statements were prepared. Existing circumstances and assumptions about future developments, however, may change due to market changes or circumstances arising that are beyond the control of the Company. Such changes are reflected in the assumptions when they occur.
1. Useful lives of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets
The Company determines based on independent technical assessment, the estimated useful lives of its property, plant and equipment and intangible assets for calculating depreciation and amortization. This estimate is determined after considering the expected usage of the asset or physical wear and tear. Management reviews the residual value and useful lives annually and future depreciation and amortization charge would be adjusted where the management believes the useful lives differ from previous estimates.
2. Fair valuation measurement of unquoted financial instruments
When the fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities recorded in the balance sheet cannot be measured based on quoted prices in active markets, their fair value is measured using valuation techniques including the DCF model. The inputs to these models are taken from observable markets where possible, but where this is not feasible, a degree of judgment is required in establishing fair values. Judgments include considerations of inputs such as liquidity risk, credit risk and volatility. Changes in assumptions about these factors could affect the reported fair value of financial instruments. Refer note 27 for further disclosures.
Write down of inventories of raw materials & components and work-in-progress to net realisable value amounted to Rs. Nil (31 March 2017: Rs. 1,002.36 lakhs) and Rs. Nil (31 March 2017: Rs. 23.45 lakhs). These were recognised as an expense during the previous year and included in ''cost of materials consumed'' and change in inventories of finished goods and work-in-progress'' in statement of profit and loss respectively.

Net debt reconciliation
This section sets out an analysis of net debt and the movements in net debt for each of the periods presented.
Note :
(a) The Company had imported refrigerators during the financial year ended 31 March 2009 by paying nil duty on such imports under the free trade agreement with Thailand. The custom authorities have challenged the classification under which the refrigerators were imported under concessional rate of duty. The dispute is pending with the CESTAT authorities. The Company has deposited Rs. 54.04 Lakhs under protest against this demand with the customs authorities which has been fully provided for. The outstanding provision amount of Rs. 20.80 Lakhs as on 31 March 2018 represents interest on the demand upto the date of payment.
(b) The Company was inter alia engaged in trading of "Sharp" brand consumer electronic goods during the period from 2007-08 to 2010-11. The Company has availed CENVAT credit of various common input services with respect to manufacturing activity and trading activity, such as Security, House-keeping, Auditing, etc. The Addl. Commissioner of Central Excise, Pune III commissionerate has issued a Show Cause Notice for non-reversal of CENVAT credit on such input services for the period 2007-08 to 2010-11. A personal hearing has been conducted by Addl. Commissioner on 20.03.2014 and the Order-in-Original is awaited. The Company has made full provision of the amount involved Rs. 47.40 lakhs.
There are no dues to micro, small and medium enterprises as at 31 March 2018 (31 March 2017: Nil, 1 April 2016: Nil), as no supplier has intimated the Company about its status as Micro or Small enterprise or its registration with the appropriate authorities under the Micro Small and Medium Enterprises Development Act, 2006.
Sale of goods includes excise duty collected from customers of Rs. 0.74 lakh (31 March 2017 Rs. 5.39 lakhs).
Goods and Service Tax (GST) has been effective from 1 July 2017. Consequently, excise duty, value added tax (VAT), service tax etc. have been replaced with GST. Until 30 June 2017, "Sale of products" included the amount of excise duty recovered on sales. With effect from 1 July 2017, "Sale of products" excludes the amount of GST recovered.
A Defined Contribution Plan
The Company also has certain defined contribution plans i.e., contribution to provident and pension fund, contribution to superannuation fund and employee deposit linked insurance scheme. Contributions are made to provident fund for employees at the rate of 12% of basic salary as per regulations. The contributions are made to registered provident fund administered by the government. The obligation of the Company is limited to the amount contributed and it has no further contractual nor any constructive obligation. The expense recognised during the period towards defined contribution plan is as follows:
B Gratuity
The Company on a conservative basis, has accrued gratuity on the basis of actual liability using gross undiscounted basis. The liability is net of the amounts contributed to an Insurer, along-with interest accrued thereon, specifically to fund these liabilities.
i) Fair value hierarchy
This section explains the judgements and estimates made in determining the fair values of the financial instruments that are measured at amortised cost and for which fair values are disclosed in the financial statements. To provide an indication about the reliability of inputs used in determining fair value, the Company has classified its financial instruments into three levels prescribed under the accounting standard. An explanation of each level follows underneath the table.
Level 1 : Level 1 hierarchy includes financial instruments measured using quoted prices. However, the Company does not have any financial instruments that are measured using Level 1 inputs.
Level 2 : The fair value of derivatives is determined using valuation techniques which maximise the use of observable market data and rely as little as possible on entity-specific estimates. If all significant inputs required to fair value an instrument are observable, the instrument is included in Level 2.
Level 3: If one or more of the significant inputs is not based on observable market data, the instrument is included in level 3.
ii) Fair value of financials assets and liabilities measured at amortised cost
The carrying amounts of all financial assets and liabilities except for borrowings are a reasonable approximation of their fair values The fair value of borrowings are based on discounted cash flows using a current borrowing rate. They are classified as Level 3 fair values in the fair value hierarchy due to the use of unobservable inputs, including own credit risk.
3 Financial risk management
The Company''s activities exposes it to market risk, liquidity risk and credit risk. The operative management of the treasury activities of the Company is responsible for managing the financial risk position and maintaining adequate liquidity. The financial risks are reviewed and monitored on a regular basis.
(A) Credit risk
Credit risk arises from cash and cash equivalents, deposits with banks, security deposits as well as credit exposures to customers including outstanding receivables. The maximum exposure arising from these financial assets is their carrying value as disclosed in the balance sheet.
(i) Credit risk management
For banks and financial institutions, only high rated banks are accepted and hence, these are subject to low credit risk with risk of default being negligible. Hence, no provision has been created for expected credit loss for credit risk arising from these financial assets. For trade and other receivables, the Company periodically reviews the status of its key customers, monitoring their respective payment deadlines and remaining outstanding balances. Further, since the Company''s sales are made solely to its related parties, it does not bear any credit risk with respect to trade receivables.
(B) Liquidity risk
Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and marketable securities and the availability of funding through an adequate amount of committed credit facilities to meet obligations when due and to close out market positions. The company obtains necessary funds mainly through bank loans and loans from its parent company i.e. Sharp Corporation, Japan.
The management monitors rolling forecasts of the Company''s liquidity position on the basis of expected cash flows.
(i) Maturities of financial liabilities
The tables below analyse the Company''s financial liabilities into relevant maturity group based on their contractual maturities:
The amounts disclosed in the tables above are the contractual undiscounted cash flows. Balances due within 12 months equal their carrying balances as the impact of discounting is not significant.
(C) Market risk
(i) Foreign currency risk
The Company operates in an international context where transactions are conducted in currencies different from the Indian Rupees (INR). This exposes the Company to risks arising from exchange rates fluctuations. For this purpose, the Company has an exchange rate risk management policy which aims to neutralise the possible negative effects of the changes in exchange rates on Company cash-flows.
A movement of 5% in the foreign exchange rates (USD and JPY) will not have a material impact on the profit after tax.
(ii) Interest rate risk exposure :
The Company has availed fixed - rate borrowings and hence is not exposed to interest rate risk.
4 Capital Management Risk management
The Company''s objectives when managing capital are to:
- safeguard their ability to continue as a going concern, so that they can continue to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders, and
- Maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital.
In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may return capital to shareholders, issue new shares or sell assets to reduce debt.
5 Segment reporting
The Company is exclusively engaged in the business of ''consumer electronics'' consisting of all types of Colour Televisions, LED TVs and Air conditioners which is considered to constitute one single segment.
All non-current assets are located within India.
4 customers (31 March 2017: 1 customer) contribute to revenues of approximately Rs. 112.21 lakhs (31 March 2017: Rs. 2,526.70 lakhs).
Claims against the company for central excise pertain to claim for (i) service tax on repairs and maintenance services and cenvat credit on input services availed for procurement of inputs (ii) Service tax credit on input services attributable to purchase of inputs which were removed as such.
6 Going concern assessment
During the year ended 31 March 2018, the Company has incurred a loss of Rs. 965.52 Lakhs and accumulated loss at 31 March 2018 is Rs. 5,413.41 Lakhs. There was no production of LED TVs from April, 2015 (except in August, 2015) and of Air Conditioners since June, 2015, in the "absence of any orders."
Sharp Corporation Japan has been acquired by Foxconn Group entities.
As at 31 March 2018, the Company has received a support letter from Sharp Corporation, Japan for financial and operational support until 31 March 2019. Sharp Japan is a group company of Hon Hai/Foxconn Group, the worldâs largest contract electronics manufacturer and the worldâs third largest information technology company in terms of revenue.
Further, the Company has received financial support of Rs.Nil ( 31 March 2017: Rs. Nil, 1 April 2016: Rs 1,987.35 lakhs).
Based on this continued support from the holding company, the management is of the opinion that the Company will be able to continue as going concern.
7 First-time adoption Transition to Ind AS
These are the Company''s first financial statements prepared in accordance with Ind AS.
The accounting policies set out in Note 1 have been applied in preparing the financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2018, the comparative information presented in these financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2017 and in the preparation of an opening Ind AS balance sheet at 1 April 2016 (the Company''s date of transition). In preparing its opening Ind AS balance sheet, the Company has adjusted the amounts reported previously in financial statements prepared in accordance with the accounting standards notified under Companies (Accounting Standards) Rules, 2006 (as amended) and other relevant provisions of the Act (previous GAAP or Indian GAAP). An explanation of how the transition from previous GAAP to Ind AS has affected the Company''s financial position, financial performance and cash flows is set out in the following notes.
A. Exemptions and exceptions availed I Exemptions availed a) Deemed cost - Property, plant and equipment (PPE), intangible assets
Ind AS 101 permits a first-time adopter to elect to continue with the carrying value for all of its property, plant and equipment and intangible assets as recognised in the financial statements as at the date of transition to Ind AS, measured as per the previous GAAP and use that as its deemed cost as at the date of transition after malting necessary adjustments for de-commissioning liabilities. This exemption can also be used for intangible assets covered by Ind AS 38 Intangible Assets.
Accordingly, the Company has elected to measure all of its property, plant and equipment and intangible assets at their previous GAAP carrying value.
II Exceptions applied a) Estimates
An entity''s estimates in accordance with Ind ASs at the date of transition to Ind AS shall be consistent with estimates made for the same date in accordance with previous GAAP (after adjustments to reflect any difference in accounting policies), unless there is objective evidence that those estimates were in error. Ind AS estimates as at 1 April 2016 are consistent with the estimates as at the same date made in conformity with previous GAAP.
Notes to first-time adoption
Following notes explain the adjustments made to amounts previously reported in the financial statements prepared under the previous GAAP. The transition to Ind-AS did not have any impact on profit for the year ended 31 March 2017 and equity as at April 1, 2016 and March 31, 2017.
1 Government grants
Under Ind AS, government grants in the nature of capital are recorded by setting up a deferred income which is amortised over a period of time to match the related costs. The Company had received a grant from the state government under the Package Scheme of Incentives (''PSI'') amounting to Rs. 20 Lakhs. Under the previous GAAP, the grant was accounted for in the nature of promoters'' contribution and accordingly, credited to capital reserve. The grant has been transferred to retained earnings as at the transition date and as a result, there is no impact on the profit for the year ended 31 March 2017 as well as equity as at 1 April 2016 and 31 March 2017.
2 Excise Duty
Under the previous GAAP, revenue from sale of products was presented exclusive of excise duty. Under Ind AS, revenue from sale of goods is presented inclusive of excise duty. The excise duty paid is presented on the face of the statement of profit and loss as a part of expenses. This change has resulted in an increase in total revenue and total expenses for the year ended 31 March 2017 by Rs. 5.39 Lakhs. There is no impact on the total equity and profit.
There is no impact on the reported cash flows on transition to Ind AS.
8 Indian accounting standards and amendments issued but not yet effective as at 31 March 2018
i) Ind AS 115: Revenue from contracts with customers
Ind AS 115 ''Revenue from contracts with customers'' deals with revenue recognition and establishes principles for reporting useful information to users of financial statements about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from an entity''s contracts with customers. Revenue is recognised when a customer obtains control of promised good or service and thus has the ability to direct the use and obtain the benefits from the good or service in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange of those goods and services. The standard replaces Ind AS 18 Revenue and Ind AS 11 Construction contracts and related appendices.
A new five-step process must be applied before revenue can be recognised:
(i) Identify contracts with customers
(ii) Identify the separate performance obligation
(iii) Determine the transaction price of the contract
(iv) Allocate the transaction price to each of the separate performance obligations, and
(v) Recognise the revenue as each performance obligation is satisfied.
The new standard is mandatory for financial years commencing on or after 1 April 2018 and early adoption is not permitted. The standard permits either a full retrospective or a modified retrospective approach for the adoption.
The Company has assessed that there is no significant impact and intends to adopt the standard using modified retrospective approach which means that the cumulative impact of the adoption will be recognised in retained earnings as of 1 April 2018 and that comparatives will not be restated.
ii) Other amendments
The Company has assessed the effects of the following amendments and has concluded that these amendments are not applicable to the Company and hence, have no impact :
(a) Appendix B to Ind AS 21 Foreign currency transactions and advance consideration
(b) Ind AS 40 Investment property - Transfers of investment property
(c) Ind AS 12 Income taxes regarding recognition of deferred tax assets on unrealised losses
Mar 31, 2016
b) Terms/rights attached to equity shares
The company has only one class of equity shares having a par value of Rs.10 per share. Each holder of equity shares is entitled to one vote per share.
In the event of liquidation of the company, the holders of equity shares will be entitled to receive remaining assets of the company, after distribution of all preferential amounts. The distribution will be in proportion to the number of equity shares held by the share holders.
# Excise duty on sales amounting to Rs. 240.86 lakhs (31 March 2015: Rs. 2,896.98 lakhs) has been reduced from sales in statement of profit and loss and excise duty on increase / (decrease) in stock amounting to Rs. 13.18 lakhs [March 31, 2015: Rs. 9.94 lakhs] has been considered as expense / (income) in note 19 of financial statements.
Defined benefit plans -
The company has a defined benefit gratuity plan. Every employee who has completed five years or more of service is eligible for gratuity on departure, computed based on the company''s gratuity scheme for each completed year of service. The scheme is funded with an insurance company.

The estimates of future salary increases considered in actuarial valuation, take account of inflation, seniority, promotion and other relevant factors, such as supply and demand in the employment market.
The overall expected rate of return on assets is based on the expectation of the average long term rate of return expected on investments of the fund during the estimated term of the obligation.
Note - 1 : SEGMENT REPORTING
