The Company got converted to a separate Public Limited Company w.e.f. 29th July, 2005. In pursuant to the scheme of Demerger & arrangement, the Gurgaon Unit was transferred to Shivam Autotech Limited on 1st August, 2005.The Company has been engaged in the manufacturing of Near-Net- Shaped, auto transmission components mainly for Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs). The product range includes various types of transmission gears, transmission shafts, spline shafts, plunger, power train components, and employing cold/warm/hot forging techniques. The Company has four state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities, located at Gurrgram, Haridwar, Bengaluru & Rohtak. The Company is listed on the National Stock Exchange and Bombay Stock Exchange of India. These financial statements are presented in Indian Rupees (Rs.).
2 Basis of preparation2.1 Statement of compliance
The Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with Indian Accounting Standards (IND AS) as prescribed under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 read with Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 and Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) (Amendment) Rules, 2016 and relevant provisions of the Companies Act, 2013. The Financial Statements comply with IND AS notified by Ministry of Company Affairs ("MCA"). The Company has consistently applied the accounting policies used in the preparation for all periods presented.
These financial statements are approved and adopted by board of directors of the Company in their meeting held on Thursday May 25, 2023.
The financial statements have been prepared accrual basis on historical cost convention, except as stated otherwise.
Accounting policies have been consistently applied except where a newly issued accounting standard is initially adopted or a revision to an existing accounting standard requires a change in the accounting policy hitherto in use.
The board of directors have considered the financial position of the Company as at March 31, 2023 and the projected cash flows and financial performance of the Company for at least twelve months from the date of approval of these financial statements as well as planned cost and cash improvement actions, and believe that the plan for sustained profitability remains on course.
2.4 Functional and presentation currency
The financial statements are presented in Indian National Rupee (''INR''), which is the Company''s functional currency. All amounts have been rounded to lakhs upto two decimal places, unless otherwise indicated.
All Assets and Liabilities have been classified as current or non-current as per the Company''s normal operating cycle and other criteria set out in the Schedule III to the Companies Act, 2013. Based on the nature of services provided and time between the acquisition of assets for processing and thier realization in cash and cash equivalents, the Company has ascertained its operating cycle as 12 months for the purpose of current and noncurrent classification of assets and liabilities.
2.6 Use of judgments and estimates
In preparing these financial statements, management has made judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, the disclosures of contingent liabilities and contingent assets at the date of financial statements, income and expenses during the period. Actual results may differ from these estimates. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to estimates are recognized prospectively.
Application of accounting policies that require critical accounting estimates and assumption judgments having the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the financial statements are:
- Measurement of defined benefit obligations:
- Recognition of deferred tax assets & MAT credit entitlement;
- Useful life and residual value of Property, plant and equipment and intangible assets;
- Impairment test of financial and nonfinancial assets;
- Recognition and measurement of provisions and contingencies;
- Fair value measurement of financial instruments
3 Significant Accounting Policies
The Company has consistently applied the following accounting policies to all periods presented in the financial statements.
a) Property, plant and equipment
i) Recognition and measurement
Items of property, plant and equipment are measured at cost, less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any.
Cost of an item of property, plant and equipment comprises its purchase price,and any directly attributable cost of bringing the asset to working condition for its intended use.
If significant parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, then they are accounted for as separate items (major components) of property, plant and equipment. The cost of replacing part of an item of property, plant and equipment or major inspections performed, are recognized in the carrying amount of the item if it is probable that the future economic benefits embodied within the part will flow to the Company and its cost can be measured reliably. The costs of all other repairs and maintenance are recognized in the statement of profit & loss as incurred.
Capital work-in-progress includes cost of property, plant and equipment under installation / under development as at the balance sheet date. Advances paid towards the acquisition of property, plant and equipment outstanding at each balance sheet date is classified as capital advances under other non-current assets.
An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognized when no future economic benefit are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset or upon disposal. Any gain or loss on disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment is recognized in statement of profit or loss.
Subsequent Expenditure
Subsequent expenditures relating to property, plant and equipment is capitalized only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with these will flow to the company and the costs of the item can be measured reliably. The cost and related accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the financial statements upon sale or retirement of the Property, Plant and Equipment and the resultant gain or losses are recognized in the statement of profit and loss.
ii) Depreciation
Depreciation is calculated on cost of items of property, plant and equipment less their estimated residual values, and is recognized in the statement of profit and loss. Depreciation on property, plant and equipment is provided on Straight Line Method at the rates determined on the basis of useful life of the assets as prescribed in Schedule II of the Companies Act, 2013.

Depreciation on additions to or on disposal of assets is calculated on pro-rata basis i.e. from (upto) the date on which the property, plant and equipment is available for use (disposed off).
Property, Plant and Equipment individually costing below Rs. 5,000 are fully depreciated during the year they are put to use.
*Change in life of Plant & Machinery (Furnace) from 15 Years to 25 Years w.e.f. 01st April, 2021
b) Intangible assets
i) Recognition & measurement and amortization
Intangible Assets are recognized, 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 amortized over the expected duration of benefits. Such intangible assets are measured at cost less any accumulated amortization and impairment losses, if any and are amortized over their respective individual estimated useful life on straight line method.
The estimated useful lives are as follows:
Computer Software 4 years
The amortization period and the amortization 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.
Intangible assets are tested for impairment when there are indications that the carrying value may not be recoverable. All impairment losses are recognised immediately in profit or loss.
An item of intangible asset is derecognised when no future economic benefit are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset or upon disposal.
Any gain or loss on disposal of an item of intangible assets is recognized in statement of profit or loss.
c) Impairment of non-financial assets
At each reporting date, the Company reviews the carrying amounts of its non-financial assets (other
than deferred tax assets) to determine whether there is any indication on impairment. If any such indication exists, then the asset''s recoverable amount is estimated.
For impairment testing, assets that do not generate independent cash flows are grouped together into the smallest group of assets that generates cash inflows from continuing use that are largely independent of the cash inflows of other assets or Cash Generating Units (''CGUs'').
The recoverable amount of an asset or CGU is the greater of its value in use and its fair value less costs to sell. Value in use is based on the estimated future cash flows, 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 or CGU.
An impairment loss is recognized if the carrying amount of an asset or CGU exceeds its estimated recoverable amount. Impairment losses are recognized in the statement of profit and loss.
In respect of assets for which impairment loss has been recognized in prior periods, the company reviews at each reporting date whether there is any indication that the loss has decreased or no longer exists. An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. Such a reversal is made only to the extent that the asset''s carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortization, if no impairment loss had been recognized.
After impairment, depreciation is provided on the revised carrying amount of the assets over its remaining useful life.
d) Financial instruments
The Company recognizes financial assets and financial liabilities when it becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. All financial assets and liabilities are recognized at fair value on initial recognition, except for trade receivables which are initially measured at fair value of the consideration received or receivable. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial
liabilities, that are not at fair value through profit or loss, are added to the fair value on initial recognition. Regular way purchase and sale of financial assets are accounted for at trade date.
ii) Subsequent measurement(i) Financial assets carried at amortized cost
A financial asset is subsequently measured at amortized cost if it is held within a business model whose objective is to hold the asset in order to collect contractual cash flows and the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. When the financial asset is derecognized or impaired, the gain or loss is recognized in the statement of profit and loss.
(ii) Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income
A financial asset is subsequently measured at fair value through other comprehensive income 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 are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. Movements in the carrying amount are taken through OCI, except for the recognition of impairment gains or losses, interest revenue and foreign exchange gains and losses which are recognized in profit and loss.
When the financial asset is derecognized, the cumulative gain or loss previously recognized in OCI is reclassified from equity to profit and loss. Equity instruments are subsequently measured at fair value. On initial recognition of an equity investment that is not held for trading, the Company may irrevocably elect to present subsequent
changes in the investment''s fair value in OCI (designated as FVOCI - equity investment). This election is made on an investment by investment basis. Fair value gains and losses recognized in OCI are not reclassified to profit and loss.
(iii) Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
A financial asset which is not classified in any of the above categories are subsequently fair valued through profit or loss.
Financial liabilities are subsequently carried at amortized cost using the effective interest method. For trade and other payables maturing within one year from the Balance Sheet date, the carrying amounts approximate fair value due to the short maturity of these instruments.
iii) Impairment of financial assets
Financial assets, other than those at FVTPL, are assessed for indicators of impairment at the end of each reporting period. The Company recognizes a loss allowance for expected credit losses on financial asset. In case of trade receivables, the Company follows the simplified approach permitted by Ind AS 109 - Financial Instruments for recognition of impairment loss allowance. The application of simplified approach does not require the Company to track changes in credit risk. The Company calculates the expected credit losses on trade receivables using a provision matrix on the basis of its historical credit loss experience.
iv) Derecognition Financial Assets
Company derecognizes a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire or it transfers the rights to receive the contractual cash flows in a transaction in which substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are transferred or in which the company neither transfers nor retains
substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership and does not retain control of the financial asset.
If the company enters into transactions whereby it transfers assets recognized on its balance sheet, but retains either all or substantially all of the risks and rewards of the transferred assets, the transferred assets are not derecognized.
The company derecognizes a financial liability when its contractual obligations are discharged or cancelled, or expire.
v) Reclassification of financial assets and financial liabilities
The company determines classification of financial assets and liabilities on initial recognition. After initial recognition, no reclassification is made for financial assets which are equity instruments and financial liabilities. For financial assets which are debt instruments, a reclassification is made only if there is a change in the business model for managing those assets.Changes to the business model are expected to be infrequent. The Company''s senior management determines change in the business model as a result of external or internal changes which are significant to the Company''s operations. Such changes are evident to external parties. A change in the business model occurs when the Company either begins or ceases to perform an activity that is significant to its operations. If the company reclassifies financial assets, it applies the reclassification prospectively from the reclassification date which is the first day of the immediately next reporting period following the change in business model. The company does not restate any previously recognized gains, losses (including impairment gains or losses) or interest.
vi) Derivative financial instruments
The Company uses derivative financial instruments, such as forward currency contracts to hedge its foreign currency risks. Derivative financial instruments are initially recognized at fair value on the
date a derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently re-measured at their fair value at the end of each period. The method of recognizing the resulting gain or loss depends on whether the derivative is designated as a hedging instrument, and if so, on the nature of the item being hedged. Any gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value of derivatives are taken directly to statement of profit or loss.
Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount presented in the balance sheet when, and only when, the company has a legally enforceable right to set off the amounts and it intends either to settle them on a net basis or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
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, regardless of whether that price is directly observable or estimated using other valuation technique. In estimating the fair value of an asset or a liability, the Company takes into account the characteristics of the asset or liability if market participants would take those characteristics into account when pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date.
Fair values for measurement and/ or disclosure purposes are categorized into Level 1, 2, or 3 based on the degree to which the inputs to the fair value measurements are observable and the significance of the inputs to the fair value measurement in its entirety, which are described as follows:
Level 1 - This includes financial instruments measured using quoted prices.
Level 2 - The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market is determined using valuation techniques which maximize 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. Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable
for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. Derived from prices)
Level 3 - If one or more of the significant inputs is not based on observable market data, the instrument is included in level 3.
f) Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets
A provision is recognized if, as a result of a past event, the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation that can be estimated reliably, and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation. If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability. Where discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognized as a finance cost.
Contingent Liability is disclosed after careful evaluation of facts, uncertainties and possibility of reimbursement, unless the possibility of an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits is remote. Contingent liabilities are not recognized but are disclosed in notes. Contingent assets are not disclosed in the financial statements unless an inflow of economic benefits is probable.
Revenue is recognized to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Company and the revenue can be reliably measured.
Sales is accounted for upon dispatch of goods from the factory when the risks and rewards of ownership are transferred to the buyer.
Ind AS 115 provides for a five step model for the analysis of Revenue transactions. The model specifies that revenue should be recognised when (or as) an entity transfer control of goods or services to a customer at the amount to which the entity expects to be entitled. Further the standard requires enhanced disclosures about the nature,
amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from the entity''s contracts with customers.
Revenue is recognized upon transfer of control of promised products or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to receive in exchange for those products or services.
ii) Dividends
Dividend is recognized when the shareholders'' right to receive payment is established by the balance sheet date.
Claims lodged with the insurance companies are accounted on accrual basis to the extent these are measurable and ultimate collection is reasonably certain.
Interest income is recognised on time proportion basis taking in to account the amount outstanding and the rate applicable.
v) Government Grant & Subsidies
Grant/subsidies is recognised when there is reasonable assurance the Grant/subsidy will be received and all attaching condition will be complied with.
h) Employee Benefits
i) Short term employee benefits
Short-term employee benefits are expensed as the related service is provided. A liability is recognized for the amount expected to be paid if the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation to pay this amount as a result of past service provided by the employee and the obligation can be estimated reliably.
ii) Defined contribution plans
Employees benefits in the form of the Company''s contribution to Provident Fund, Family Pension scheme and Employees State Insurance are defined contribution schemes. The Company recognizes contribution payable to these schemes as an expense, when an employee renders the related service.
If the contribution payable exceeds contribution already paid, the deficit payable is recognized as a liability (accrued expense), after deducting any contribution already paid. If the contribution already paid exceeds the contribution due for service before the end of the reporting period. The Company recognize that excess as an asset (prepaid expense) to the extent that the prepayment will lead to, for example, a reduction in future payments or a cash refund.
Retirement benefits in the form of gratuity are considered as defined benefit plans. The Company''s net obligation in respect of defined benefit plans is calculated by estimating the amount of future benefit that employees have earned in the current and prior periods, discounting that amount and deducting the fair value of any plan assets.
The company provides for its gratuity liability based on actuarial valuation of the gratuity liability as at the Balance Sheet date, based on Projected Unit Credit Method, carried out by an independent actuary. The Company contributes to the gratuity fund, which are recognized as plan assets. The defined benefit obligation as reduced by fair value of plan assets is recognized in the Balance Sheet.
When the calculation results in a potential asset for the company, the recognized asset is limited to the present value of economic benefits available in the form of any future refunds from the plan or reductions in future contributions to the plan. To calculate the present value of economic benefits, consideration is given to any applicable minimum funding requirements.
Remeasurement of the net defined benefit liability, which comprise actuarial gains and losses, the return on plan assets (excluding interest) and the effect of the asset ceiling (if any, excluding interest), are recognized immediately in Other Comprehensive Income. Net interest expense (income) on the net defined liability (assets) is computed by applying the discount rate, used to measure the net defined liability (asset), to the net defined liability (asset) at the start of the financial year after taking into account any changes as
a result of contribution and benefit payments during the year. Net interest expense and other expenses related to defined benefit plans are recognized in statement of profit or loss.
When the benefits of a plan are changed or when a plan is curtailed, the resulting change in benefit that relates to past service or the gain or loss on curtailment is recognized immediately in statement of profit or loss. The company recognizes gains and losses on the settlement of a defined benefit plan when the settlement occurs.
iv) Other long-term employee benefits
Employee benefits in the form of long term compensated absences are considered as long term employee benefits. The Company''s net obligation in respect of long-term employee benefits is the amount of future benefit that employees have earned in return for their service in the current and prior periods. That benefit is discounted to determine its present value. Remeasurements are recognized in profit or loss in the period in which they arise.
The liability for long term compensated absences are provided based on actuarial valuation as at the Balance Sheet date, based on Projected Unit Credit Method, carried out by an independent actuary.
i) Finished goods are valued at lower of cost or net realizable value. Scrap is valued at net realizable value. cost includes direct materials and labour and a proportion of manufacturing overheads based on normal operating capacity. cost of Finished goods includes excise duty.
ii) Work in progress is valued at raw material cost including proportionate production overheads.
iii) Stores, spares and raw materials are valued at lower of cost or net realizable value. However materials & other items held for use in the production of inventories are not written below cost if the finished products in which they will be incorporated are expected to be sold at or above cost. cost of purchases is assessed on first in first out (FIFO) method.
iv) Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less estimated costs of completion and estimated costs necessary to make the sale.
j) Foreign Exchange Transactions / Translations / Hedge Accounting
Financial statements have been presented in Indian Rupees (''), which is the Company''s functional and presentation currency.
⢠Initial recognition
Foreign currency transactions are recorded on initial recognition in the functional currency, using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction.
⢠Conversion
Foreign currency monetary items are retranslated using the exchange rate prevailing at the reporting date. Nonmonetary items, which are measured in terms of historical cost denominated in a foreign currency, are reported using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction. Nonmonetary items, which are measured at fair value or other similar valuation denominated in a foreign currency, are translated using the exchange rate at the date when such value was determined.
⢠Exchange differences
The gain or loss arising on translation of non-monetary items measured at fair value is treated in line with the recognition of the gain or loss on the change in fair value of the item (i.e., translation differences on items whose fair value gain or loss is recognized in OCI or profit or loss are also recognized in OCI or profit or loss, respectively).
k) Borrowing costs
Borrowing costs are interest and other ancillary costs (including exchange differences relating to foreign currency borrowings to the extent that they are regarded as an adjustment to interest costs) incurred in connection with the borrowing of funds. General and specific borrowing costs attributable to acquisition and construction of any qualifying asset (one that takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its designated use or sale) are capitalized until such time as the
assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale, and included as part of the cost of that asset.All the other borrowing costs are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss within Finance costs of the period in which they are incurred.
Income tax expense comprises current and deferred tax. It is recognized in profit or loss except to the extent that it relates to items recognized directly in equity or in Other Comprehensive Income
i) Current tax
Current tax comprises the expected tax payable or receivable on the taxable income or loss for the year after taking credit of the benefits available under the Income Tax Act and any adjustment to the tax payable or receivable in respect of previous years. It is measured using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date. Current tax assets and liabilities are offset only if, the Company:
a) has a legally enforceable right to set off the recognized amounts; and
b) intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
Deferred tax is the tax expected to be payable or recoverable on differences between the carrying values of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit and is accounted for using the balance sheet liability method. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognized for all taxable temporary differences. In contrast, deferred tax assets are only recognized to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilized.
The carrying value 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 is calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period when the liability is settled or the asset is realized based on the tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantially 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 cover or settle the carrying value of its assets and liabilities.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset only if:
i) The entity has a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities; and
ii) The deferred tax assets and the deferred tax liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on the same taxable entity.
Deferred tax assets include Minimum Alternate Tax (MAT) paid in accordance with the tax laws in India, which is likely to give future economic benefits in the form of availability of set off against future income tax liability. MAT is recognized as deferred tax assets in the Balance Sheet when the asset can be measured reliably and it is probable that the future economic benefit associated with the asset will be realized.
The Company''s operating businesses are organized and managed separately according to the nature of products manufactured and services provided, with each segment representing a strategic business unit that offers different products. The analysis of geographical segments is based on the areas in which major operating divisions of the Company operate. The reportable segments have been identified based on the significant components of the enterprise for which discrete financial information is available and are reviewed by the Chief operating decision maker (CODM) to assess the performance and allocate resources to the operating segments.
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash at bank and on hand and short-term deposits 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.
Cash flows are reported using the indirect method as explained in the Accounting Standard on Statement of Cash Flows (Ind AS - 7), whereby profit for the period is adjusted for the effects of transactions of a non-cash nature, any deferrals or accruals of past or future operating cash receipts or payments and item of income or expenses associated with investing or financing cash flows. The cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities of the Company are segregated.
Ind AS 116 requires lessees to determine the lease term as the non-cancellable period of a lease adjusted with any option to extend or terminate the lease, if the use of such option is reasonably certain. The Company makes an assessment on the expected lease term on a lease-by-lease basis and thereby assesses whether it is reasonably certain that any options to extend or terminate the contract will be exercised. In evaluating the lease term, the Company considers factors such as any significant leasehold improvements undertaken over the lease term, costs relating to the termination of the lease and the importance of the underlying asset to Company''s operations taking into account the location of the underlying asset and the availability of suitable alternatives. The lease term in future periods is reassessed to ensure that the lease term reflects the current economic circumstances. After considering current and future economic conditions, the company has concluded that no changes are required to lease period relating to the existing lease contracts.
The Company as a lesee
The Company''s lease asset classes primarily consist of leases for buildings. The Company
assesses whether a contract contains a lease, at inception of a contract. 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. 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 has 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.
At the date of commencement of the lease, the Company recognizes a right-of-use asset ("ROU") and a corresponding lease liability for all lease arrangements in which it is a lessee, except for leases with a term of twelve months or less (short-term leases) and low value leases. For these short-term and low value leases, the Company recognizes the lease payments as an operating expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.
Certain lease arrangements include 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.
The right-of-use assets are initially recognized at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or prior to the commencement date of the lease plus any initial direct costs less any lease incentives. They are subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses.
Right-of-use assets are depreciated from the commencement date on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease term and useful life of the underlying asset. Right of use assets are evaluated for recoverability whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. For the purpose of impairment testing, the recoverable amount (i.e. the higher of the fair value less cost to sell and the value-in-use) is determined on an individual asset basis unless the asset does not generate cash flows that are largely independent of those from other assets. In such cases, the recoverable amount is determined for the Cash Generating
Unit (CGU) to which the asset belongs.
The lease liability is initially measured at amortized cost at the present value of the future lease payments. The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if not readily determinable, using the incremental borrowing rates in the country of domicile of these leases. Lease liabilities are re-measured with a corresponding adjustment to the related right of use asset if the Company changes its assessment if whether it will exercise an extension or a termination option. Lease liability and ROU asset have been separately presented in the Balance Sheet and lease payments have been classified as financing cash flows.
The Company as a lessor
Leases for which the Company is a lessor is classified as a finance or operating lease.Whenever the terms of the lease transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the lessee, the contract is classified as a finance lease. All other leases are classified as operating leases. When the Company is an intermediate lessor, it accounts for its interests in the head lease and the sublease separately. The sublease is classified as a finance or operating lease by reference to the right-of-use asset arising from the head lease. For operating leases, rental income is recognized on a straight line basis over the term of the relevant lease.
Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing the net profit or loss for the period attributable to equity shareholders by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year.
For the purpose of calculating diluted earnings per share, the net profit or loss for the period attributable to equity shareholders and the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period are adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potential equity shares.
Government grants are recognized at fair value when there is reasonable assurance that the grant would be received and the Company would comply with all the conditions attached with them. Government grants related to PPE are treated as deferred income (included under noncurrent liabilities with current portion considered under current liabilities) and are recognized and credited in the Statement of Profit and Loss on a systematic and rational basis over the estimated useful life of the related asset and included under "Other operating income". Government grants related to revenue nature are recognized on a systematic basis in the Statement of profit and loss over the periods necessary to match them with the related costs which they are intended to compensate and are adjusted with the related expenditure. If not related to a specific expenditure, it is taken as income and presented under "Other operating income".
Ministry of Corporate Affairs ("MCA") 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:
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 Group does not expect this amendment to have any significant impact in its financial statements.
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 "monetary 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 Group does not expect this amendment to have any significant impact in its financial statements
Ind AS 12 - Income Taxes 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 Group is evaluating the impact, if any, in its financial statements.

1 Significant Accounting Policies
The Company has consistently applied the following accounting policies to all periods presented in the financial statements.
a) Property, plant and equipment
i) Recognition and measurement
Items of property, plant and equipment are measured at cost, less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any.
Cost of an item of property, plant and equipment comprises its purchase price,and any directly attributable cost of bringing the asset to working condition for its intended use. General and specific borrowing costs directly attributable to the construction of a qualifying asset are capitalized as part of the cost.â
If significant parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, then they are accounted for as separate items (major components) of property, plant and equipment. The cost of replacing part of an item of property, plant and equipment or major inspections performed, are recognized in the carrying amount of the item if it is probable that the future economic benefits embodied within the part will flow to the Company and its cost can be measured reliably. The costs of all other repairs and maintenance are recognized in the Statement of Profit & Loss as incurred. Capital work-in-progress includes cost of property, plant and equipment under installation / under development as at the balance sheet date. Advances paid towards the acquisition of property, plant and equipment outstanding at each balance sheet date is classified as capital advances under other non-current assets. An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognized when no future economic benefit are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset or upon disposal. Any gain or loss on disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment is recognized in statement of profit or loss.
Subsequent Expenditure
Subsequent expenditures relating to property, plant and equipment is capitalized only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with these will flow to the company and the costs of the item can be measured reliably. The cost and related accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the financial statements upon sale or retirement of the Property, Plant and Equipment and the resultant gain or losses are recognized in the statement of profit and loss.
ii) Transition to Ind AS
On transition to Ind AS, the Company has decided to capitalise machinery spares amounting to Rs. 312.76 Lacs as Property, plant and equipment regarding rest of assets falling under the category Property, plant and equipment company elected to continue with the carrying value recognized as at 1 April 2016 measured as per the previous GAAP and use that carrying value as the deemed cost of the property, plant and equipment.â
iii) Depreciation
Depreciation is calculated on cost of items of property, plant and equipment less their estimated residual values, and is recognized in the statement of profit and loss. Depreciation on property, plant and equipment is provided on Straight Line Method at the rates determined on the basis of useful life of the assets as prescribed in Schedule II of the Companies Act, 2013.
Depreciation on additions to or on disposal of assets is calculated on pro-rata basis i.e. from (upto) the date on which the property, plant and equipment is available for use (disposed off). Property, Plant and Equipment individually costing below Rs. 5,000 are fully depreciated during the year they are put to use.
b) Intangible assets
i) Recognition & measurement and amortization
Intangible Assets are recognized, 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 amortized over the expected duration of benefits. Such intangible assets are measured at cost less any accumulated amortization and impairment losses, if any and are amortized over their respective individual estimated useful life on straight line method. The estimated useful lives are as follows:
Computer Software - 4 years
The amortization period and the amortization 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.
Intangible assets are tested for impairment when there are indications that the carrying value may not be recoverable. All impairment losses are recognised immediately in profit or loss.
An item of intangible asset is derecognised when no future economic benefit are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset or upon disposal. Any gain or loss on disposal of an item of intangible assets is recognized in statement of profit or loss.
c) Impairment of non-financial assets
At each reporting date, the Company reviews the carrying amounts of its non-financial assets (other than deferred tax assets) to determine whether there is any indication on impairment. If any such indication exists, then the assetâs recoverable amount is estimated. For impairment testing, assets that do not generate independent cash flows are grouped together into the smallest group of assets that generates cash inflows from continuing use that are largely independent of the cash inflows of other assets or Cash Generating Units (âCGUsâ). The recoverable amount of an asset or CGU is the greater of its value in use and its fair value less costs to sell. Value in use is based on the estimated future cash flows, 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 or CGU. An impairment loss is recognized if the carrying amount of an asset or CGU exceeds its estimated recoverable amount. Impairment losses are recognized in the statement of profit and loss.
In respect of assets for which impairment loss has been recognized in prior periods, the company reviews at each reporting date whether there is any indication that the loss has decreased or no longer exists. An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. Such a reversal is made only to the extent that the assetâs carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortization, if no impairment loss had been recognized. After impairment, depreciation is provided on the revised carrying amount of the assets over its remaining useful life.
d) Financial instruments
i) Initial recognition
The Company recognizes financial assets and financial liabilities when it becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. All financial assets and liabilities are recognized at fair value on initial recognition, except for trade receivables which are initially measured at fair value of the consideration received or receivable. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities, that are not at fair value through profit or loss, are added to the fair value on initial recognition. Regular way purchase and sale of financial assets are accounted for at trade date.
ii) Subsequent measurement
(i) Financial assets carried at amortized cost
A financial asset is subsequently measured at amortized cost if it is held within a business model whose objective is to hold the asset in order to collect contractual cash flows and the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. When the financial asset is derecognized or impaired, the gain or loss is recognized in the statement of profit and loss.
(ii) Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income
A financial asset is subsequently measured at fair value through other comprehensive income 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 are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. Movements in the carrying amount are taken through OCI, except for the recognition of impairment gains or losses, interest revenue and foreign exchange gains and losses which are recognized in profit and loss. When the financial asset is derecognized, the cumulative gain or loss previously recognized in OCI is reclassified from equity to profit and loss. Equity instruments are subsequently measured at fair value. On initial recognition of an equity investment that is not held for trading, the Company may irrevocably elect to present subsequent changes in the investmentâs fair value in OCI (designated as FVOCI - equity investment). This election is made on an investment by investment basis. Fair value gains and losses recognized in OCI are not reclassified to profit and loss.
(iii) Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
A financial asset which is not classified in any of the above categories are subsequently fair valued through profit or loss.
(iv) Financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are subsequently carried at amortized cost using the effective interest method. For trade and other payables maturing within one year from the Balance Sheet date, the carrying amounts approximate fair value due to the short maturity of these instruments
iii) Impairment of financial assets
Financial assets, other than those at FVTPL, are assessed for indicators of impairment at the end of each reporting period. The Company recognizes a loss allowance for expected credit losses on financial asset. In case of trade receivables, the Company follows the simplified approach permitted by Ind AS 109 - Financial Instruments for recognition of impairment loss allowance. The application of simplified approach does not require the Company to track changes in credit risk. The Company calculates the expected credit losses on trade receivables using a provision matrix on the basis of its historical credit loss experience.
iv) Derecognition Financial Assets
Company derecognizes a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire or it transfers the rights to receive the contractual cash flows in a transaction in which substantially all of therisks andrewards of ownershipof thefinancialasset are transferred orin which the company neither transfers norretains substantiallyallof therisksand rewards ofownership and does notretaincontrolofthefinancialasset. If the company enters into transactions whereby it transfers assets recognized on its balance sheet, but retains either all or substantially all of the risks and rewards of the transferred assets, the transferred assets are not derecognized.â
Financial liabilities
The company derecognizes a financial liability when its contractual obligations are discharged or cancelled, or expire.
v) Reclassification of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities
The company determines classification of financial assets and liabilities on initial recognition. After initial recognition, no reclassification is made for financial assets which are equity instruments and financial liabilities. For financial assets which are debt instruments, a reclassification is made only if there is a change in the business model for managing those assets.Changes to the business model are expected to be infrequent. The Companyâs senior management determines change in the business model as a result of external or internal changes which are significant to the Companyâs operations. Such changes are evident to external parties. A change in the business model occurs when the Company either begins or ceases to perform an activity that is significant to its operations. If the company reclassifies financial assets, it applies the reclassification prospectively from the reclassification date which is the first day of the immediately next reporting period following the change in business model. The company does not restate any previously recognized gains, losses (including impairment gains or losses) or interest.
vi) Derivative financial instruments
The Company uses derivative financial instruments, such as forward currency contracts to hedge its foreign currency risks. Derivative financial instruments are initially recognized at fair value on the date a derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently re-measured at their fair value at the end of each period. The method of recognizing the resulting gain or loss depends on whether the derivative is designated as a hedging instrument, and if so, on the nature of the item being hedged. Any gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value of derivatives are taken directly to statement of profit or loss.
vii) Offsetting
Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount presented in the balance sheet when, and only when, the company has a legally enforceable right to set off the amounts and it intends either to settle them on a net basis or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
e) 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, regardless of whether that price is directly observable or estimated using other valuation technique. In estimating the fair value of an asset or a liability, the Company takes into account the characteristics of the asset or liability if market participants would take those characteristics into account when pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. Fair values for measurement and/ or disclosure purposes are categorized into Level 1, 2, or 3 based on the degree to which the inputs to the fair value measurements are observable and the significance of the inputs to the fair value measurement in its entirety, which are described as follows.
Level 1 - This includes financial instruments measured using quoted prices.
Level 2 - The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market is determined using valuation techniques which maximize 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. Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. Derived from prices).
Level 3 - If one or more of the significant inputs is not based on observable market data, the instrument is included in level 3.
f) Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets
A provision is recognized if, as a result of a past event, the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation that can be estimated reliably, and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation. If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability. Where discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognized as a finance cost. Contingent Liability is disclosed after careful evaluation of facts, uncertainties and possibility of reimbursement, unless the possibility of an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits is remote. Contingent liabilities are not recognized but are disclosed in notes. Contingent assets are not disclosed in the financial statements unless an inflow of economic benefits is probable.
g) Revenue Recognition
Revenue is recognized to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Company and the revenue can be reliably measured.
i) Sale of goods
Sales is recognized when the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods have passed to the buyer and sales is inclusive of excise duty but net of returns, rebates and value added tax (VAT). Materials returned/ rejected are accounted for in the year of return/rejection. Excise Duty deducted from turnover (gross) is the amount that is included in the amount of turnover (gross) and not the entire amount of liability arising during the year.
ii) Dividends
Dividend is recognized when the shareholdersâ right to receive payment is established by the balance sheet date.
iii) Insurance claim
Claims lodged with the insurance companies are accounted on accrual basis to the extent these are measurable and ultimate collection is reasonably certain.
iv) Interest
Income Interest income is recognised on time proportion basis taking in to account the amount outstanding and the rate applicable.
v) Government Grant & Subsidies
Grant/subsidies is recognised when there is reasonable assurance that the Grant/subsidy will be received and all attaching condition will be complied with.
h) Employee Benefits
i) Short term employee benefits
Short-term employee benefits are expensed as the related service is provided. A liability is recognized for the amount expected to be paid if the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation to pay this amount as a result of past service provided by the employee and the obligation can be estimated reliably.
ii) Defined contribution plans
Employees benefits in the form of the Companyâs contribution to Provident Fund, Family Pension scheme and Employees State Insurance are defined contribution schemes. The Company recognizes contribution payable to these schemes as an expense, when an employee renders the related service.
If the contribution payable exceeds contribution already paid, the deficit payable is recognized as a liability (accrued expense), after deducting any contribution already paid. If the contribution already paid exceeds the contribution due for service before the end of the reporting period. The Company recognize that excess as an asset (prepaid expense) to the extent that the prepayment will lead to, for example, a reduction in future payments or a cash refund.
iii) Defined benefit plans
Retirement benefits in the form of gratuity are considered as defined benefit plans. The Companyâs net obligation in respect of defined benefit plans is calculated by estimating the amount of future benefit that employees have earned in the current and prior periods, discounting that amount and deducting the fair value of any plan assets.
The company provides for its gratuity liability based on actuarial valuation of the gratuity liability as at the Balance Sheet date, based on Projected Unit Credit Method, carried out by an independent actuary. The Company contributes to the gratuity fund, which are recognized as plan assets. The defined benefit obligation as reduced by fair value of plan assets is recognized in the Balance Sheet.
When the calculation results in a potential asset for the company, the recognized asset is limited to the present value of economic benefits available in the form of any future refunds from the plan or reductions in future contributions to the plan. To calculate the present value of economic benefits, consideration is given to any applicable minimum funding requirements.
Remeasurement of the net defined benefit liability, which comprise actuarial gains and losses, the return on plan assets (excluding interest) and the effect of the asset ceiling (if any, excluding interest), are recognized immediately in Other Comprehensive Income. Net interest expense (income) on the net defined liability (assets) is computed by applying the discount rate, used to measure the net defined liability (asset), to the net defined liability (asset) at the start of the financial year after taking into account any changes as a result of contribution and benefit payments during the year. Net interest expense and other expenses related to defined benefit plans are recognized in statement of profit or loss. When the benefits of a plan are changed or when a plan is curtailed, the resulting change in benefit that relates to past service or the gain or loss on curtailment is recognized immediately in statement of profit or loss. The company recognizes gains and losses on the settlement of a defined benefit plan when the settlement occurs.
iv) Other long-term employee benefits
Employee benefits in the form of long term compensated absences are considered as long term employee benefits.TheCompanyâsnetobligationinrespectoflong-termemployeebenefitsis the amountoffuturebenefit that employees have earned in return for their service in the current and prior periods.That benefit is discounted to determine its present value. Remeasurements are recognized in profit or loss in the period in which they arise. The liability for long term compensated absences are provided based on actuarial valuation as at the Balance Sheet date, based on Projected Unit Credit Method, carried out by an independent actuary.
i) Valuation of inventories
i) Finished goods are valued at lower of cost or net realizable value. Scrap is valued at net realizable value. cost includes direct materials and labour and a proportion of manufacturing overheads based on normal operating capacity. cost of Finished goods includes excise duty.
ii) Work in progress is valued at lower of cost or net realizable value. cost is determined on average basis.
iii) Stores, spares and raw materials are valued at lower of cost or net realizable value. However materials & other items held for use in the production of inventories are not written below cost if the finished products in which they will be incorporated are expected to be sold at or above cost. cost of purchases is assessed on first in first out (FIFO) method.
iv) Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less estimated costs of completion and estimated costs necessary to make the sale.
j) Foreign Exchange Transactions / Translations / Hedge Accounting
Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the functional currency spot rates of exchange at the reporting date. Financial instruments designated as Hedge Instruments are mark to market using the valuation given by the bank on the reporting date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies that are measured at fair value are retranslated to the functional currency at the exchange rate at the date that the fair value was determined. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction.
k) Borrowing costs
Borrowing costs are interest and other ancillary costs (including exchange differences relating to foreign currency borrowings to the extent that they are regarded as an adjustment to interest costs) incurred in connection with the borrowing of funds. General and specific borrowing costs attributable to acquisition and construction of any qualifying asset (one that takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its designated use or sale) are capitalized until such time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale, and included as part of the cost of that asset.All the other borrowing costs are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss within Finance costs of the period in which they are incurred.
l) Income tax
Income tax expense comprises current and deferred tax. It is recognized in profit or loss except to the extent that it relates to items recognized directly in equity or in Other Comprehensive Income
i) Current tax
Current tax comprises the expected tax payable or receivable on the taxable income or loss for the year after taking credit of the benefits available under the Income Tax Act and any adjustment to the tax payable or receivable in respect of previous years. It is measured using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date. Current tax assets and liabilities are offset only if, the Company:
a) has a legally enforceable right to set off the recognized amounts; and
b) intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
ii) Deferred tax
Deferred tax is the tax expected to be payable or recoverable on differences between the carrying values of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit and is accounted for using the balance sheet liability method. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognized for all taxable temporary differences In contrast, deferred tax assets are only recognized to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilized.
The carrying value 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 is calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period when the liability is settled or the asset is realized based on the tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantially 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 cover or settle the carrying value of its assets and liabilities.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset only if:
i) The entity has a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities; and
ii) The deferred tax assets and the deferred tax liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on the same taxable entity.
Deferred tax assets include Minimum Alternate Tax (MAT) paid in accordance with the tax laws in India, which is likely to give future economic benefits in the form of availability of set off against future income tax liability. MAT is recognized as deferred tax assets in the Balance Sheet when the asset can be measured reliably and it is probable that the future economic benefit associated with the asset will be realized.
m) Segment Reporting
The Companyâs operating businesses are organized and managed separately according to the nature of products manufactured and services provided, with each segment representing a strategic business unit that offers different products. The analysis of geographical segments is based on the areas in which major operating divisions of the Company operate. The reportable segments have been identified based on the significant components of the enterprise for which discrete financial information is available and are reviewed by the Chief operating decision maker (CODM) to assess the performance and allocate resources to the operating segments.Refer Note -40.
n) Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash at bank and on hand and short-term deposits 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.
o) Cash flow statement
Cash flows are reported using the indirect method as explained in the Accounting Standard on Statement of Cash Flows (Ind AS - 7), whereby profit for the period is adjusted for the effects of transactions of a non-cash nature, any deferrals or accruals of past or future operating cash receipts or payments and item of income or expenses associated with investing or financing cash flows. The cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities of the Company are segregated.
p) Lease
The determination of whether an arrangement is (or contains) a lease is based on the substance of the arrangement at the inception of the lease. The arrangement is, or contains, a lease if fulfillment of the arrangement is dependent on the use of a specific asset or assets and the arrangement conveys a right to use the asset or assets, even if that right is not explicitly specified in an arrangement.
i) Finance Lease
Finance Lease that transfer substantially all of the risks and benefits incidental to ownership of the leased item, are capitalized at the commencement of the lease at the fair value of the leased property or, if lower, at the present value of the minimum lease payments. Lease payments are apportioned between finance charges and a reduction in the lease liability so as to achieve a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. Finance charges are recognized in finance costs in the statement of profit and loss. A leased asset is depreciated over the useful life of the asset. However, if there is no reasonable certainty that the Company will obtain ownership by the end of the lease term, the asset is depreciated over the shorter of the estimated useful life of the asset and the lease term.
ii) Operating Lease
Assets acquired on leases where a significant portion of the risks and rewards of ownership are retained by lessor are classified as operating leases. Initial direct costs incurred in negotiating and arranging an operating lease are added to the carrying amount of the leased asset. Payments under operating lease are recorded in the Statement of Profit and Loss on a straight line basis over the period of the lease unless the payments are structured to increase in line with expected general inflation to compensate for the expected inflationary cost increases.
q) Earning per share
Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing the net profit or loss for the period attributable to equity shareholders by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year.
For the purpose of calculating diluted earnings per share, the net profit or loss for the period attributable to equity shareholders and the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period are adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potential equity shares.
Deferred tax includes an amount of Rs. 3,449.70 Lakhs which relates to carried forward unabsorbed depreciation which can be carried forward for indefinite period. Company has incurred losses from last two financial years following the capitalization of the two manufacturing facilities at Rohtak, Haryana and Bengaluru, Karnataka. The company has estimated that the deferred tax assets will be recovered in future based on the future taxable income based on the approved business plan of the company.
Mar 31, 2015
I. Basis of Preparation of financial statements
The financial statements of the company have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in India
(Indian GAAP). The company has prepared these financial statements to
comply in all material respects with the accounting standards notified
under section 133 of the Companies Act 2013, read together with Rule 7
of the Companies (Accounts) Rules 2014. The financial statements have
been prepared on an accrual basis and under the historical cost
convention, except in case of assets for which revaluation is carried
out.
The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of financial
statements are consistent with those of previous year.
II. Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the
financial statements and the results of operations during the reporting
period. Although these estimates are based upon management's best
knowledge of current events and actions, actual results could differ
from these estimates. Difference between the actual result and
estimates are recognized in the period in which the results are known/
materialized.
III. Fixed Assets
a. Tangible assets
Fixed assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and
impairment losses, if any. Costs include costs of acquisitions or
constructions, including incidental expenses thereto and other
attributable costs of bringing the asset to its working condition for
its intended use and are net of available duty/tax credits.
b. Intangible assets
Intangible assets are recognized on the basis of recognition criteria
as set out in Accounting Standard (AS- 26)"Intangible assets".
c. Expenditure during construction period
Expenditure related to and incurred during implementation of
new/expansion projects is included under capital work -in-progress and
the same is allocated to the respective Fixed Assets on completion of
its construction/ erection. Interest on borrowing costs relating to the
qualifying asset is worked out on the basis of actual utilisation of
funds out of project specific loan and/ or other borrowings to the
extent identifiable with the qualifying asset and are capitalised with
the cost of qualifying assets.
IV. Depreciation/amortisation
Depreciation is provided on pro-rata basis on the straight-line method
over the estimated useful lives prescribed under Schedule II to the
Companies Act, 2013. Pursuant to this policy, depreciation is provided
at the following rates which are in line with the corresponding useful
life prescribed in Schedule II of the Companies Act, 2013 :
Plant & Machinery 15 years
Building 30 years
Computers 3 years
Office equipment 5 years
Furniture & fixtures 10 years
Vehicles 8 years
Intangible assets 4 years
Lease hold Improvements Amortised over
the period of lease
V. Impairment of assets
The carrying amount of assets is reviewed for impairment at each balance
sheet date wherever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the
carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized
for the amount for which the asset's carrying amount exceeds its
recoverable amount being the higher of the assets net selling price and
its value in use. Value in use is based on the present value of the
estimated future cash flows relating to the asset. For the purpose of
assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which
there are separately identifiable cash flows (i.e. cash generating
units). Previously recognized impairment losses are reversed where the
recoverable amount increases because of favourable changes in the
estimates used to determine the recoverable amount since the last
impairment was recognized. A reversal of an asset's impairment loss is
limited to its carrying amount that would have been determined (net of
depreciation or amortization) had no impairment loss been recognized in
prior years.
VI. Government grants and subsidies
Grants and subsidies from the government are recognized when there is
reasonable assurance that the grant/subsidy will be received and all
attaching conditions will be complied with.
VII. Borrowing costs
Borrowing cost related to a qualifying asset is worked out on the basis
of actual utilization of funds project specific loans and/or other
borrowings to the extent identifiable with the qualifying asset and is
capitalized with the cost of qualifying asset. Other borrowing costs
incurred during the period are charged to statement of profit and loss.
VIII. Segment reporting Identification of segments
The Company's operating businesses are organized and managed separately
according to the nature of products manufactured and services provided,
with each segment representing a strategic business unit that offers
different products. The analysis of geographical segments is based on
the areas in which major operating divisions of the Company operate.
IX. Employee benefits
a. Employee benefits in the form of the Company's contribution to
provident fund, pension fund and ESI are considered as defined
contribution plan and charged to the statement of profit and loss of
the year when the contributions to the respective funds are due. There
are no other obligations other than the contributions payable to the
respective funds.
b. Retirement benefits in the form of gratuity are defined benefit
plans. Gratuity is provided for on the basis of an actuarial valuation
on projected unit credit method made at the end of each financial year.
c. Short term compensated absences are provided for based on
estimates. Long term compensated absences are provided for based on
actuarial valuation at the year end. The actuarial valuation is done as
per projected unit credit method.
d. Actuarial gains/losses are immediately taken to statement of profit
and loss.
X. Valuation of inventories
a. Finished goods are valued at lower of cost or net realizable value.
Scrap is valued at net realizable value. Cost includes direct materials
and labour and a proportion of manufacturing overheads based on normal
operating capacity. Cost of finished goods includes excise duty.
b. Work in progress is valued at lower of cost or net realizable
value. Cost is determined on average basis.
c. Stores, spares and raw materials are valued at lower of cost or net
realizable value. However materials & other items held for use in the
production of inventories are not written below cost if the finished
products in which they will be incorporated are expected to be sold at
or above cost. Cost of purchases is assessed on first in first out
(FIFO) method.
Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary
course of business, less estimated costs of completion and estimated
costs necessary to make the sale.
d. Excise duty liability on finished goods lying in the factory is
accounted for and the corresponding amount is considered for the
valuation thereof.
XI. Tools & dies
The consumable tools & dies are charged to statement of profit & loss
in the year they are put to use.
XII. Investments
Investments that are readily realizable and intended to be held for not
more than a year are classified as current investments. All other
investments are classified as long-term investments. Current
investments are carried at lower of cost and fair value determined for
each category separately. Long-term investments are carried at cost on
individual investment basis. However, provision for diminution in value
is made to recognise a decline other than temporary in the value of the
investments in case of long term investments.
XIII. Revenue recognition
Revenue is recognized to the extent that it is probable that the
economic benefits will flow to the Company and the revenue can be
reliably measured.
a. Sale of goods
Sales is recognized when the significant risks and rewards of ownership
of the goods have passed to the buyer and sales is inclusive of excise
duty but net of returns, rebates and value added tax (VAT). Materials
returned/rejected are accounted for in the year of return/rejection.
Excise Duty deducted from turnover (gross) is the amount that is
included in the amount of turnover (gross) and not the entire amount of
liability arising during the year.
b. Dividends
Dividend is recognized when the shareholders' right to receive payment
is established by the balance sheet date.
c. Insurance claim
Claims lodged with the insurance companies are accounted on accrual
basis to the extent these are measurable and ultimate collection is
reasonably certain.
XIV. Foreign currency transactions
a. 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.
b. 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; and non-monetary items which are
carried at fair value or other similar valuation denominated in a
foreign currency are reported using the exchange rates that existed
when the values were determined.
c. Exchange differences
Exchange differences arising on the settlement of monetary items, or on
reporting such 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.
d. Forward exchange contracts not intended for trading or speculation
purposes
The premium or discount arising at the inception of forward exchange
contracts is amortised as expense or income over the life of the
contract. 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.
XV. Income taxes
Tax expense comprises of current and deferred. Current income tax is
measured at the amount expected to be paid to the tax authorities in
accordance with the Indian Income Tax Act. Deferred income tax reflects
the impact of current year timing differences between taxable income
and accounting income for the year and reversal of timing differences
of earlier years.
Deferred tax is measured based on the tax rates and the tax laws
enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date. Deferred
tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset, if a legally
enforceable right exists to set off current tax assets against current
tax liabilities and the deferred tax assets and deferred tax
liabilities relate to the taxes on income levied by same governing
taxation laws. Deferred tax assets are recognized only to the extent
that there is reasonable certainty that sufficient future taxable
income will be available against which such deferred tax assets can be
realised. In situations where the Company has unabsorbed depreciation
or carry forward tax losses, all deferred tax assets are recognized
only if there is virtual certainty supported by convincing evidence
that they can be realised against future taxable profits.
At each balance sheet date the Company re-assesses unrecognized
deferred tax assets. It recognises unrecognized deferred tax assets to
the extent that it has become reasonably certain or virtually certain,
as the case may be, that sufficient future taxable income will be
available against which such deferred tax assets can be realised.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets are reviewed at each balance
sheet date. The Company writes- down the carrying amount of a deferred
tax asset to the extent that it is no longer reasonably certain or
virtually certain, as the case may be, that sufficient future taxable
income will be available against which deferred tax asset can be
realised. Any such write-down is reversed to the extent that it becomes
reasonably certain or virtually certain, as the case may be, that
sufficient future taxable income will be available.
MAT credit is recognized as an asset only when and to the extent there
is convincing evidence that the Company will pay normal income tax
during the specified period. In the year in which the Minimum
Alternative tax (MAT) credit becomes eligible to be recognized as an
asset in accordance with the recommendations contained in Guidance Note
issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India, the said
asset is created by way of a credit to the statement of profit and loss
and shown as MAT Credit Entitlement. The Company reviews the same at
each balance sheet date and writes down the carrying amount of MAT
Credit Entitlement to the extent there is no longer convincing evidence
to the effect that Company will pay normal Income Tax during the
specified period.
XVI. Earnings per share
Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing the net profit or
loss for the period attributable to equity shareholders (after
deducting preference dividends and attributable taxes) by the weighted
average number of equity shares outstanding during the period. Partly
paid equity shares are treated as a fraction of an equity share to the
extent that they were entitled to participate in dividends relative to
a fully paid equity share during the reporting period. The weighted
average number of equity shares outstanding during the period is
adjusted for events of bonus issue, bonus element in a rights issue to
existing shareholders, share split, and reverse share split
(consolidation of shares).
For the purpose of calculating diluted earnings per share, the net
profit or loss for the period attributable to equity shareholders and
the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period are
adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potential equity shares.
XVII. Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets
A provision is recognized when an enterprise has a present obligation
as a result of past event and it is probable that an outflow of
resources will be required to settle the obligation, in respect of
which a reliable estimate can be made. Provisions are not discounted to
its present value and are determined based on best estimate required to
settle the obligation at the balance sheet date. These are reviewed at
each balance sheet date and adjusted to reflect the current best
estimates.
Contingent liabilities are shown by way of notes to accounts in respect
of obligations where based on the evidence available, their existence
at the balance sheet date is considered not probable. Contingent assets
are not recognized in the accounts nor disclosed.
XVIII. Leases
Where the Company is the lessee
Leases where the lessor effectively retains substantially all the risks
and benefits of ownership of the leased item, are classified as
operating leases. Operating lease payments are recognized as an expense
in the statement of profit and loss on a straight-line basis over the
lease term.
Where the Company is the lessor
Assets subject to operating leases are included in fixed assets. Lease
income is recognized in the statement of profit and loss on a
straight-line basis over the lease term. Costs, including depreciation
are recognized as an expense in the statement of profit and loss.
Initial direct costs such as legal costs, brokerage costs, etc. are
recognized immediately in the statement of profit and loss.
XIX. Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash, bank balances in current
account and short-term highly liquid investments that are readily
convertible to cash with original maturities of three months or less at
the time of purchase.

I. Basis of Preparation of financial statements
The financial statements of the company have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in India
(Indian GAAP). The financial statements have been prepared to comply in
all material respects with the accounting standards notified under the
Companies (Accounting Standards) Rules,2006, (as amended and as
applicable from time to time) read with General Circular No. 15/2013
dated 13th September, 2013 and General Circular No. 8/2014 dated 4th
April 2014 issued by Ministry of Corporate Affairs and the relevant
provisions of the Companies Act, 1956.The financial statements have
been prepared on an accrual basis and under the historical cost
convention on going concern basis.
II. Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the
financial statements and the results of operations during the reporting
period. Although these estimates are based upon management''s best
knowledge of current events and actions, actual results could differ
from these estimates. Difference between the actual result and
estimates are recognized in the period in which the results are known/
materialized.
III. Fixed Assets
a. Tangible assets
Fixed assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and
impairment losses, if any. Costs include costs of acquisitions or
constructions, including incidental expenses thereto and other
attributable costs of bringing the asset to its working condition for
its intended use and are net of available duty/tax credits.
b. Intangible assets
Intangible assets are recognized on the basis of recognition criteria
as set out in Accounting Standard (AS-26)"Intangible assets".
c. Expenditure during construction period
Expenditure related to and incurred during implementation of
new/expansion projects is included under capital work -in-progress and
the same is allocated to the respective Fixed Assets on completion of
its construction/ erection. Interest on borrowing costs relating to the
qualifying asset is worked out on the basis of actual utilisation of
funds out of project specific loan and/ or other borrowings to the
extent identifiable with the qualifying asset and are capitalised with
the cost of qualifying assets.
IV. Depreciation/amortisation
Depreciation is provided on fixed assets over the useful lives of the
assets estimated by the management, which are equivalent to the rates
prescribed in Schedule XIV to the Companies Act, 1956. The following
methods of depreciation are used by the Company for fixed assets:
V. Impairment of assets
The carrying amount of assets is reviewed for impairment at each
balance sheet date wherever events or changes in circumstances indicate
that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is
recognized for the amount for which the asset''s carrying amount exceeds
its recoverable amount being the higher of the assets net selling price
and its value in use. Value in use is based on the present value of the
estimated future cash flows relating to the asset. For the purpose of
assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which
there are separately identifiable cash flows (i.e. cash generating
units).
Previously recognized impairment losses are reversed where the
recoverable amount increases because of favourable changes in the
estimates used to determine the recoverable amount since the last
impairment was recognized. A reversal of an asset''s impairment loss is
limited to its carrying amount that would have been determined (net of
depreciation or amortization) had no impairment loss been recognized in
prior years.
VI. Government grants and subsidies
Grants and subsidies from the government are recognized when there is
reasonable assurance that the grant/subsidy will be received and all
attaching conditions will be complied with.
VII. Borrowing costs
Borrowing cost related to a qualifying asset is worked out on the basis

realizable value. However materials & other items held for use in the
production of inventories are not written below cost if the finished
products in which they will be incorporated are expected to be sold at
or above cost. Cost of purchases is assessed on first in first out
(FIFO) method.
Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary
course of business, less estimated costs of completion and estimated
costs necessary to make the sale.
d. Excise duty liability on finished goods lying in the factory is
accounted for and the corresponding amount is considered for the
valuation thereof.
XI. Tools & dies
The consumable tools & dies are charged to statement of profit & loss
in the year they are put to use.
XII. Investments
Investments that are readily realizable and intended to be held for not
more than a year are classified as current investments. All other
investments are classified as long-term investments. Current
investments are carried at lower of cost and fair value determined for
each category separately. Long-term investments are carried at cost on
individual investment basis. However, provision for diminution in value
is made to recognise a decline other than temporary in the value of the
investments in case of long term investments.
XIII. Revenue recognition

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.
XV. Income taxes

measured at the amount expected to be paid to the tax authorities in
accordance with the Indian Income Tax Act. Deferred income tax reflects
the impact of current year timing differences between taxable income
and accounting income for the year and reversal of timing differences
of earlier years.
Deferred tax is measured based on the tax rates and the tax laws
enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date. Deferred
tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset, if a legally
enforceable right exists to set off current tax assets against current
tax liabilities and the deferred tax assets and deferred tax
liabilities relate to the taxes on income levied by same governing
taxation laws. Deferred tax assets are recognized only to the extent

deferred tax assets. It recognises unrecognized deferred tax assets to
the extent that it has become reasonably certain or virtually certain,
as the case may be, that sufficient future taxable income will be
available against which such deferred tax assets can be realised. The
carrying amount of deferred tax assets are reviewed at each balance
sheet date. The Company writes-down the carrying amount of a deferred
tax asset to the extent that it is no longer reasonably certain or
virtually certain, as the case may be, that sufficient future taxable
income will be available against which deferred tax asset can be
realised. Any such write-down is reversed to the extent that it becomes
reasonably certain or virtually certain, as the case may be, that
sufficient future taxable income will be available.
MAT credit is recognized as an asset only when and to the extent there
is convincing evidence that the Company will pay normal income tax
during the specified period. In the year in which the Minimum
Alternative tax (MAT) credit becomes eligible to be recognized as an
asset in accordance with the recommendations contained in Guidance Note
issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India, the said
asset is created by way of a credit to the statement of profit and loss
and shown as MAT Credit Entitlement. The Company reviews the same at
each balance sheet date and writes down the carrying amount of MAT
Credit Entitlement to the extent there is no longer convincing evidence
to the effect that Company will pay normal Income Tax during the
specified period.
XVI. Earnings per share
Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing the net profit or
loss for the period attributable to equity shareholders (after
deducting preference dividends and attributable taxes) by the weighted
average number of equity shares outstanding during the period. Partly
paid equity shares are treated as a fraction of an equity share to the
extent that they were entitled to participate in dividends relative to
a fully paid equity share during the reporting period. The weighted
average number of equity shares outstanding during the period is
adjusted for events of bonus issue, bonus element in a rights issue to
existing shareholders, share split, and reverse share split
(consolidation of shares).
For the purpose of calculating diluted earnings per share, the net
profit or loss for the period attributable to equity shareholders and
the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period are
adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potential equity shares.
XVII. Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets
A provision is recognized when an enterprise has a present obligation
as a result of past event and it is probable that an outflow of
resources will be required to settle the obligation, in respect of

its present value and are determined based on best estimate required to
settle the obligation at the balance sheet date. These are reviewed at
each balance sheet date and adjusted to reflect the current best
estimates.
Contingent liabilities are shown by way of notes to accounts in respect
of obligations where based on the evidence available, their existence
at the balance sheet date is considered not probable. Contingent assets
are not recognized in the accounts nor disclosed.
XVIII.Leases Where the Company is the lessee
Leases where the lessor effectively retains substantially all the risks
and benefits of ownership of the leased item, are classified as

XVI Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing the net profit or
loss for the period attributable to equity shareholders (after
deducting preference dividends and attributable taxes) by the weighted
average number of equity shares outstanding during the period. Partly
paid equity shares are treated as a fraction of an equity share to the
extent that they were entitled to participate in dividends relative to
a fully paid equity share during the reporting period. The weighted
average number of equity shares outstanding during the period is
adjusted for events of bonus issue, bonus element in a rights issue to
existing shareholders, share split, and reverse share split
(consolidation of shares).
For the purpose of calculating diluted earnings per share, the net
profit or loss for the period attributable to equity shareholders and
the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period are
adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potential equity shares.
XVII Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets

Standards notified by Companies (Accounting Standards) Rules, 2006 in
compliance with Section 211(3C) of the Companies Act, 1956. The Company
follows the mercantile system of accounting and recognizes income and
expenditure on accrual basis to the extent measurable and where there
is certainty of ultimate realisation in respect of incomes. Accounting
policies not specifically referred to otherwise are consistent and in
consonance with the generally accepted accounting principles in India.
The Company has prepared its financial statements in accordance with
Schedule VI as inserted by Notification- S.O. 447(E), dated February
28, 2011 (As amended by Notification No F.NO. 2/6/2008-CL-V, Dated
March 30,2011). The Schedule does not impact recognition and
measurement principle followed for the preparation of financial
statement. However it has necessitated significant changes in the
presentation of and disclosures in financial statements. The Company
has reclassified its previous year figures to confirm to the
classification as per the aforesaid Schedule.
II Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires manage- ment to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the
financial statements and the results of operations during the reporting
period. Although these estimates are based upon management's best
knowledge of current events and actions, actual results could differ
from these estimates. Difference between the actual result and
estimates are recognized in the period in which the results are known/
materialized.
III Fixed Assets
a. Fixed Assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and
impairment losses, if any. Costs include costs of acquisitions or
constructions, including incidental expenses thereto and other
attributable costs of bringing the asset to its working condition for
its intended use and are net of available duty/tax credits.
b. Intangible assets
Intangible Assets are recognized on the basis of recognition criteria
as set out in Accounting Standard (AS-26)"Intangible Assets".
c. Expenditure during construction period
Expenditure related to and incurred during implementation of
new/expansion projects is included under Capital Work -in-progress and
the same is allocated to the respective Fixed Assets on completion of
its construction/ errection. Interest on borrowing costs relating to
the qualifying asset is worked out on the basis of actual utilisation
of funds out of project specfic loan and/ or other borrowings to the
extent identifiable with the qualifying asset and are capitalised with
the cost of qualifying assets.
Fixed Assets costing Rs.5000/- or less are fully depreciated in the
year of acquisition.
V Impairment of Assets
The carrying amount of assets is reviewed for impairment at each
balance sheet date wherever events or changes in circumstances indicate
that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is
recognized for the amount for which the asset's carrying amount exceeds
its recoverable amount being the higher of the assets net selling price
and its value in use. Value in use is based on the present value of the
estimated future cash flows relating to the asset. For the purpose of
assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which
there are separately identifiable cash flows (i.e. cash generating
units).
Previously recognized impairment losses are reversed where the
recoverable amount increases because of favorable changes in the
estimates used to determine the recoverable amount since the last
impairment was recognized. A reversal of an asset's impairment loss is
limited to its carrying amount that would have been determined (net of
depreciation or amortization) had no impairment loss been recognized in
prior years.
VI Government grants and subsidies
Grants and subsidies from the government are recognized when there is
reasonable assurance that the grant/ subsidy will be received and all
attaching conditions will be complied with.
VII Borrowing Costs
Borrowing cost related to a qualifying asset is worked out on the basis
of actual utilization of funds project specific loans and/or other
borrowings to the extent identifiable with the qualifying asset and is
capitalized with the cost of qualifying asset. Other borrowing costs
incurred during the period are charged to Statement of Profit and Loss
Account.
VIII Segment reporting
Identification of segments
The Company's operating businesses are organized and managed separately
according to the nature of products manufactured and services provided,
with each segment representing a strategic business unit that offers
different products. The analysis of geographical segments is based on
the areas in which major operating divisions of the Company operate.
IX Employee Benefits
a) Employee benefits in the form of the Company's contribution to
provident fund, pension fund and ESI are considered as defined
contribution plan and charged to the Statement of profit and loss
account of the year when the contributions to the respective funds are
due. There are no other obligations other than the contributions
payable to the respective funds.
b) Retirement benefits in the form of gratuity are defined benefit
plans. Gratuity is provided for on the basis of an actuarial valuation
on projected unit credit method made at the end of each financial year.
c) Short term compensated absences are provided for based on estimates.
Long term compensated absences are provided for based on actuarial
valuation at the year end. The actuarial valuation is done as per
projected unit credit method.
d) Actuarial gains/losses are immediately taken to statement of profit
and loss account.
X Valuation of Inventories
a) Finished goods are valued at lower of cost or net realizable value.
Scrap is valued at net realizable value. Cost includes direct materials
and labour and a proportion of manufacturing overheads based on normal
operating capacity. Cost of finished goods includes excise duty.
b) Work in progress is valued at lower of cost or net realizable value.
Cost is determined on a average basis.
c) Stores, Spares and Raw Materials are valued at lower of cost or net
realizable value. However materials & other items held for use in the
production of inventories are not written below cost if the finished
products in which they will be incorporated are expected to be sold at
or above cost. Cost of purchases is assesed on first in first out
(FIFO) method.
Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary
course of business, less estimated costs of completion and estimated
costs necessary to make the sale.
d) Excise duty liability on Finished Goods lying in the factory is
accounted for and the corresponding amount is considered for the
valuation thereof.
XI Tools & Dies
The consumable Tools & Dies are charged to statement of profit & loss
account in the year they are put to use.
XII Investments
Investments that are readily realizable and intended to be held for not
more than a year are classified as current investments. All other
investments are classified as long-term investments. Current
investments are carried at lower of cost and fair value determined for
each category separately. Long-term investments are carried at cost on
individual investment basis. However, provision for diminution in value
is made to recognise a decline other than temporary in the value of the
investments in case of long term investments.
XIII Revenue Recognition
Revenue is recognized to the extent that it is probable that the
economic benefits will flow to the Company and the revenue can be
reliably measured.
(a) Sale of goods
Sales is recognized when the significant risks and rewards of ownership
of the goods have passed to the buyer and sales is inclusive of excise
duty but net of returns, rebates, VAT and sales tax materials
returned/rejected are accounted for in the year of return/rejection.

included in the amount of turnover (gross) and not the entire amount of
liability arised during the year. Sale is net of trade discount and
sales tax.
(b) Dividends
Dividend is recognized when the shareholders' right to receive payment
is established by the balance sheet date.
(c) Insurance Claim
Claims lodged with the insurance companies are accounted on accrual
basis to the extent these are measurable and ultimate collection is
reasonably certain.
XIV Foreign Currency Transactions
(a) 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.
(b) 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; and non-monetary items which are
carried at fair value or other similar valuation denominated in a
foreign currency are reported using the exchange rates that existed
when the values were determined.
(c) Exchange Differences
Exchange differences arising on the settlement of monetary items, or on
reporting such 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.
(d) Forward Exchange Contracts not intended for trading or speculation
purposes
The premium or discount arising at the inception of forward exchange
contracts is amortised as expense or income over the life of the
contract. 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.
XV Income Taxes
Tax expense comprises of current and deferred. Current income tax is
measured at the amount expected to be paid to the tax authorities in
accordance with the Indian Income Tax Act. Deferred income tax reflects
the impact of current year timing differences between taxable income
and accounting income for the year and reversal of timing differences
of earlier years.
Deferred tax is measured based on the tax rates and the tax laws
enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date. Deferred
tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset, if a legally
enforceable right exists to set off current tax assets against current
tax liabilities and the deferred tax assets and deferred tax
liabilities relate to the taxes on income levied by same governing
taxation laws. Deferred tax assets are recognized only to the extent
that there is reasonable certainty that sufficient future taxable
income will be available against which such deferred tax assets can be
realised. In situations where the company has unabsorbed depreciation
or carry forward tax losses, all deferred tax assets are recognized
only if there is virtual certainty supported by convincing evidence
that they can be realised against future taxable profits.
At each balance sheet date the Company re-assesses unrecognized
deferred tax assets. It recognises unrecognized deferred tax assets to
the extent that it has become reasonably certain or virtually certain,
as the case may be, that sufficient future taxable income will be
available against which such deferred tax assets can be realised.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets are reviewed at each balance
sheet date. The Company writes-down the carrying amount of a deferred
tax asset to the extent that it is no longer reasonably certain or
virtually certain, as the case may be, that sufficient future taxable
income will be available against which deferred tax asset can be
realised. Any such write-down is reversed to the extent that it
becomes reasonably certain or virtually certain, as the case may be,
that sufficient future taxable income will be available.
MAT credit is recognized as an asset only when and to the extent there
is convincing evidence that the company will pay normal income tax
during the specified period. In the year in which the Minimum
Alternative tax (MAT) credit becomes eligible to be recognized as an
asset in accordance with the recommendations contained in Guidance Note
issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India, the said
asset is created by way of a credit to the statement of profit and loss
account and shown as MAT Credit Entitlement. The Company reviews the
same at each balance sheet date and writes down the carrying amount of
MAT Credit Entitlement to the extent there is no longer convincing
evidence to the effect that Company will pay normal Income Tax during
the specified period.
XVI Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing the net profit or
loss for the period attributable to equity shareholders (after
deducting preference dividends and attributable taxes) by the weighted
average number of equity shares outstanding during the period. Partly
paid equity shares are treated as a fraction of an equity share to the
extent that they were entitled to participate in dividends relative to
a fully paid equity share during the reporting period. The weighted
average number of equity shares outstanding during the period is
adjusted for events of bonus issue, bonus element in a rights issue to
existing shareholders, share split, and reverse share split
(consolidation of shares).
For the purpose of calculating diluted earnings per share, the net
profit or loss for the period attributable to equity shareholders and
the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period are
adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potential equity shares.
XVIIProvisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets
A provision is recognised when an enterprise has a present obligation
as a result of past event and it is probable that an outflow of
resources will be required to settle the obligation, in respect of
which a reliable estimate can be made. Provisions are not discounted
to its present value and are determined based on best estimate required
to settle the obligation at the balance sheet date. These are reviewed
at each balance sheet date and adjusted to reflect the current best
estimates.
Contingent liabilities are shown by way of Notes to Accounts in respect
of obligations where based on the evidence available, their existence
at the Balance Sheet date is considered not probable. Contingent assets
are not recognised in the accounts nor disclosed.
XVIII Leases
Where the Company is the lessee
Leases where the lessor effectively retains substantially all the risks
and benefits of ownership of the leased item, are classified as
operating leases. Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense
in the Profit and Loss account on a straight-line basis over the lease
term.

in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be
recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized for the amount for which
the assets carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount being the
higher of the assets net selling price and its value in use. Value in
use is based on the present value of the estimated future cash flows
relating to the assets. For the purpose of assessing impairment, assets
are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately
indentifiable cash flows (I.e. cash generating units) Previously
recognized impairment losses, relating to assets other than goodwill,
are reversed where the recoverable amount increases because of
favourable changes in the estimates used to determine the recoverable
amount since the last impairment was recognized. A reversal of an asset
impairment loss is limited to its carrying amount that would have been
determined (net of depreciation or amortization) had noimpairment loss
been recognized inprior years.
11) Provisions and contingent Liabilities
Provisions are recognized for present obligations of uncertain timing
or amount arising as a result of a past event where a reliable etsimate
can be made and it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying
economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation. Where it
is not probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic
benefits will be required or the amount cannot be estimated reliably,
the obligation is disclosed as a contingent liability, unless the
probablity of outflow of resources embodying economic benefits is
remote.Possible obligations, whose existence will only be confirmed by
the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain events, are
also disclosed as contingent liabilities unless the probability of
outflowof resources embodying economic benefitisremote.
