prepared to comply in all material aspects with the accounting
standards notified under Section 211(3C) [Companies (Accounting
Standards) Rules, 2006, as amended] and the other relevant provisions
of the Companies Act, 1956.
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 VI to the Companies Act, 1956. Based
on the nature of products and the time between the acquisition of
assets for processing and their realisation in cash and cash
equivalents, the Company has ascertained its operating cycle as 12
months for the purpose of current - non current classification of
assets and liabilities.
1.2. Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires 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
amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period end.
Difference between the actual results and estimates are recognised in
the period in which results are known /
materialised.
1.3. Tangible Assets
Tangible Assets are stated at acquisition cost, net of accumulated
depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. Cost comprises
the purchase price and any attributable cost of bringing the asset to
its working condition for its intended use.
Subsequent expenditures related to an item of fixed asset are added to
its book value only if they increase the future benefits from the
existing asset beyond its previously assessed standard of performance.
Items of fixed assets that have been retired from active use and are
held for disposal are stated at the lower of their net book value and
net realisable value and are shown separately in the financial
statements. Any expected loss is recognised immediately in the
Statement of Profit and Loss.
Loss arising from the retirement of, and gains or losses arising from
disposal of fixed assets which are carried at cost are recognised in
the Statement of Profit and Loss.

credited to the statement of Profit and Loss.

General and specific borrowing costs directly attributable to the
acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets, which are
assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready

until such time as the assets are substantially ready for their
intended use or sale. All other borrowing costs are recognised in
Statement of Profit and Loss in the period in which they are incurred.
1.6. Impairment
Assessment is done at each Balance Sheet date as to whether there is
any indication that an asset (tangible and intangible) may be impaired.
For the purpose of assessing impairment, the smallest identifiable
group of assets that generates cash inflows from continuing use that
are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or group
of assets, is considered as a cash generating unit. If any such
indication exits, an estimate of the recoverable amount of the
asset/cash generating unit is made. Assets whose carrying value exceeds
their recoverable amount are written down to the recoverable amount.
Recoverable amount is higher of an asset''s or cash generating unit''s
net-selling price and its value in use. Value in use is the present
value of estimated future cash flows expected to arise from the
continuing use of an asset and from its disposal at the end of its
useful life. Assessment is also done at each Balance Sheet date as to
whether there is any indication that an impairment loss recognised for
an asset in prior accounting periods may no longer exist or may have
decreased.
