This note provides a list of the material accounting policies adopted in the preparation of these Indian Accounting
Standards (Ind-AS) standalone financial statements.These policies have been consistently applied to all the years except
where newly issued accounting standard is initially adopted.
(i) Recognition and measurement
Freehold land is carried at historical cost. All other items of property, plant and equipment are stated at historical cost
less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any.
(ii) Depreciation methods, Estimated Useful Lives and Residual Value
Depreciation is calculated on cost of items of property, plant and equipment less their estimated residual values over
their estimated useful lives using the written-down value method, and is generally recognised in the statement of
profit and loss. Freehold land is not depreciated.
The estimated useful lives of items of Property, plant and equipment for the current and comparative periods are as
follows:
Leasehold improvements (included under the block of assets as specified above) are depreciated over the shorter of
their useful life or lease term, unless the entity expects to use the assets beyond lease term.
Depreciation method, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at each financial year-end and adjusted if
appropriate. Based on technical evaluation and consequent advice, the management believes that its estimates
of useful lives as given above best represent the period over which management expects to use these assets.
The residual values are considered by the Management as per the limits specified in Part A of Schedule II of the
Companies Act, 2013.
Depreciation on additions (disposals) is provided on a pro-rata basis i.e. from (up to) the date on which asset is ready
for use (disposed of).
(i) Recognition and measurement
Computer Software
Intangible assets acquired are reported at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses,
if any.
Computer Software for internal use, which is primarily acquired from third-party vendors is capitalised. Cost
associated with maintaining software programmes are recognised as an expense as incurred. Cost of computer
software includes license fees and cost of implementation/system integration services, where applicable.
(ii) Amortisation methods and periods
Amortisation is charged on a written down basis over their estimated useful lives. The estimated useful life and
amortisation method are reviewed at the end of each annual reporting period, with the effect of any changes in
estimate being accounted for on a prospective basis.
Computer softwares are amortised over the useful life of 5 years.
Revenue from sale of products is recognised at the point in time when control of the goods is transferred to the
customer,being when the products are delivered to the customer, the customer has the full discretion over the channel and
price to sell the products and there is no unfulfilled obligation that could affect the customer''s acceptance of the products.
Delivery occurs when the products have been shipped to the specific location, the risks of obsolescence and loss have
been transferred to the customer and rather the customer accepted the products on accordance with the sales contract,
the acceptance provision have lapsed or the Company has objective evidence that all criteria for acceptance have been
satisfied.
The Company recognises revenue from the sale of products measured at the transaction price allocated to the
performance onligation which is the price specified in the contract, net of returns and allowances, trade discounts, volume
rebates and excluding taxes or duties collected.Such provisions give rise to variable consideration and are estimated at
contract inception and updated thereafter. Revenue from value added services, namely freight and shipping insurance, is
recognised as and when services are rendered, as per the terms agreed with the customers.
a. A refund liability is recognised for expected volume discounts payable for sales made till the end of the reporting
period.
b. If a customer pays consideration before the Company transfers goods or services to the customer, an advance from
customers (contract liability) is recognised when the payment is made or the payment is due (whichever is earlier).
Contract liabilities are recognised as revenue when the Company performs under the contract.
c. The Company does not have any contracts where the period between the transfer of the promised goods or services
to the customer and payment by the customer exceeds one year. As a consequence, the company does not adjust
any of the transaction prices for the time value of money since the Company does not have any significant financing
element included in the sales made.
(i) Classification
The Company classifies its Financial assets in the following measurement categories:
⢠those to be measured subsequently at fair value (either through other comprehensive income, or through profit
or loss), and
⢠those to be measured at amortised cost.
The classification depends on the entity''s business model for managing the Financial assets and the contractual
terms of the cash flows.
For assets measured at fair value, gains and losses will either be recorded in profit or loss or other comprehensive
income. For investments in equity instruments that are not held for trading, this will depend on whether the Company
has made an irrevocable election at the time of initial recognition to account for the equity investment at FVOCI.
The Company reclassifies debt investments when and only its business model for managing those assets changes.
Regular way purchases and sales of Financial assets are recognised on trade-date, being the date on which the
Company commits to purchase or sale the financial asset.
(iii) Measurement
At initial recognition, the Company measures a financial asset at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial asset not
at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the financial
asset. Transaction costs of Financial assets carried at fair value through profit or loss are expensed in profit or loss.
Subsequent measurement of debt instruments depends on the Companyâs business model for managing the asset
and the cash flow characteristics of the asset. There are three measurement categories into which the Company
classifies its debt instruments:
⢠Amortised cost: Assets that are held for collection of contractual cash flows where those cash flows represent
solely payments of principal and interest are measured at amortised cost. A gain or loss on a debt investment
that is subsequently measured at amortised cost is recognised in profit or loss when the asset is derecognised
or impaired. Interest income from these Financial assets is included in finance income using the effective
interest rate method.
⢠Fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI): Assets that are held for collection of contractual
cash flows and for selling the Financial assets, where the assetsâ cash flows represent solely payments of
principal and interest, are measured at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI). Movements in
the carrying amount are taken through OCI, except for the recognition of impairment gains or losses, interest
and losses which are recognised in profit and loss. When the financial asset is derecognised, the cumulative
gain or loss previously recognised in OCI is reclassified from equity to profit or loss. Interest income from these
Financial assets is included in Other income using the effective interest rate method.
⢠Fair value through profit or loss: Assets that do not meet the criteria for amortised cost or FVOCI are measured
at fair value through profit or loss. A gain or loss on a debt investment that is subsequently measured at fair
value through profit or loss is recognised in profit or loss and presented net in the statement of profit and loss
in the period in which it arises. Interest income from these Financial assets is included in Other income.
The Company subsequently measures all equity investments at fair value. Where the Companyâs management
has elected to present fair value gains and losses on equity investments in other comprehensive income, there
is no subsequent reclassification of fair value gains and losses to profit or loss following the derecognition of the
investment. Dividends from such investments are recognised in profit or loss as Other income when the Companyâs
right to receive payments is established.
Changes in the fair value of Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are recognised in Other income in the
statement of profit and loss. Impairment losses (and reversal of impairment losses) on equity investments measured
at FVOCI are not reported separately from other changes in fair value.
(iv) Derecognition
A financial asset is derecognised only when
⢠The Company has transferred the rights to receive cash flows from the financial asset or
⢠retains the contractual rights to receive the cash flows of the financial asset, but assumes a contractual
obligation to pay the cash flows to one or more recipients.
Where the entity has transferred an asset, the Company evaluates whether it has transferred substantially all risks
and rewards of ownership of the financial asset. In such cases, the financial asset is derecognised. Where the entity
has not transferred substantially all risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset, the financial asset is not
derecognised.
Where the entity has neither transferred a financial asset nor retains substantially all risks and rewards of ownership
of the financial asset, the financial asset is derecognised if the Company has not retained control of the financial
asset. Where the Company retains control of the financial asset, the asset is continued to be recognised to the extent
of continuing involvement in the financial asset.
(v) Impairment of Financial assets
The Company recognises loss allowances for expected credit losses on:
- Financial assets measured at amortised cost; and
- Financial assets measured at FVOCI- debt investments.
At each reporting date, the Company assesses whether Financial assets carried at amortised cost and debt securities
at FVOCI are credit- impaired. A financial asset is ''credit- impairedâ when one or more events that have a detrimental
impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset have occurred.
The Company recognises loss allowances using the expected credit loss (ECL) model for the Financial assets which
are measured at amortised cost. The Company does not have any Financial assets which are carried at fair value
through profit or loss or at FVOCI. Loss allowance for Trade receivables with no significant financing component is
measured at an amount equal to lifetime ECL. For all Other financial assets (i.e. cash and bank balances and Other
financial assets) , expected credit losses are measured at an amount equal to the 12 month ECL, unless there has
been a significant increase in credit risk from initial recognition in which case those are measured at lifetime ECL.
The amount of expected credit losses (or reversal) that is required to adjust the loss allowance at the reporting date
to the amount that is required to be recognised, is recognised as an impairment gain or loss in the statement of profit
and loss.
The cost of indivisual items of inventory is determined using the First-in-First out (FIFO) method. Volume rebates or
discounts are taken into account when estimating the cost of inventory if it is probable that they have been earned and will
take effect.
The Companyâs lease asset classes primarily comprise of lease for land and building. The Company applies a single
recognition and measurement approach for all leases, except for short-term leases and leases of low-value assets. The
Company recognises lease liabilities to make lease payments and right-of-use assets representing the right to use the
underlying assets.
(i) Right-of-use assets (ROU)
The Company classifies ROU assets separate from the Property plant and equipment in Balance Sheet and lease
liability in "Financial Liability".
(ii) Lease Liabilities
In calculating the present value of lease payments, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate at the lease
commencement date because the interest rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable.
(iii) Short-term leases and leases of low-value assets
The Company applies the short-term lease recognition exemption to its shortterm leases (i.e., those leases that
have a lease term of 12 months or less from the commencement date and do not contain a purchase option). It
also applies the lease of low-value assets recognition exemption to leases that are considered to be low value.
Lease payments on short-term leases and leases of low-value assets are recognised as expense on a straight-line
basis over the lease term.
Borrowings are initially recognised at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently measured at
amortised cost. Any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption amount is recognised
in profit or loss over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method. Fees paid on the establishment of
loan facilities are recognised as transaction costs of the loan to the extent that it is probable that some or all of the facility
will be drawn down. In this case, the fee is deferred until the draw down occurs. To the extent there is no evidence that it
is probable that some or all of the facility will be drawn down, the fee is capitalised as a prepayment for liquidity services
and amortised over the period of the facility to which it relates.
Borrowings are removed from the balance sheet when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged, cancelled or
expired. The difference between the carrying amount of a financial liability that has been extinguished or transferred to
another party and the consideration paid, including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed, is recognised
in profit or loss.
Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the Company has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the
liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period.Where there is a breach of material provision of a long-term loan
arrangement on or before the end of the reporting period with the effect that the liability becomes payble on demand on
the reporting date, the enity does not classify the liability as current, if the lender agreed, after the reporting period and
before the approval of the financial statemets for issue, not to demand payment as a consequence of the breach.
Financial guarantee contracts issued by the Company are those contracts that require a payment to be made to reimburse
the holder for a loss it incurs because the specified debtor fails to make a payment when due in accordance with the terms
of a debt instrument.
Financial guarantee contracts are recognised initially as a liability at fair value, adjusted for transaction costs that are
directly attributable to the issuance of the guarantee. Subsequently, the liability is measured at the higher of the amount
of loss allowance determined as per impairment requirements of Ind AS 109 - ''Financial Instrumentsâ and the amount
recognised less cumulative amortization over the period of guarantee.
This note provides a list of the material accounting policies adopted in the preparation of these Indian Accounting
Standards (Ind-AS) standalone financial statements.These policies have been consistently applied to all the years except
where newly issued accounting standard is initially adopted.
(a) Property, plant and equipment
(i) Recognition and measurement
Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the items.
Subsequent costs are included in the assetâs carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate,
only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Company and the
cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of any component accounted for as a separate
asset is derecognised when replaced. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to profit or loss during the
reporting period in which they are incurred.
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.
An assetâs carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the assetâs carrying
amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount.
Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with carrying amount.These are included
in profit or loss within Other Income.
On transition to Ind AS, the Company has elected to continue with the carrying value of all of its Property, plant
and equipment recognised as at 1st April, 2019 measured as per the previous GAAP and use that carrying value
as the deemed cost of the Property, plant and equipment.
(b) Capital Work in Progress
(i) Recognition and measurement
Expenditure incurred on construction of assets which are not ready for their intended use are carried at cost less
impairment (if any), under Capital work-in-progress. The cost includes the purchase cost of materials, including
import duties and non-refundable taxes, interest on borrowings used to finance the construction of the asset
and any directly attributable costs of bringing an asset ready for their intended use.
(c) Intangible Assets and Intangible Assets under development
(i) Recognition and measurement
Development costs that are directly attributable to the design and testing of identifiable and unique software
products controlled by the Company are recognised as intangible assets where the following criteria are met:
⢠it is technically feasible to complete the software so that it will be available for use
⢠management intends to complete the software and use or sell it
⢠there is an ability to use or sell the software
⢠it can be demonstrated how the software will generate probable future economic benefits
⢠adequate technical, financial and other resources to complete the development and to use or sell the
software are available, and
⢠the expenditure attributable to the software during its development can be reliably measured.
Capitalised development costs are recorded as intangible assets and amortised from the point at which the
asset is available for use.
Expenditure incurred on development of an intangible assets which are not ready for their intended use are
carried at cost less impairment (if any), under Intangible Assets under development.
(ii) Transition to Ind AS
On transition to Ind AS, the Company has elected to continue with the carrying value of all intangible assets
measured at per the previous GAAP and use that carrying value as the deemed cost of intangible assets.
(d) Impairment of other assets
Non-financial assets are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the
carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the assetâs
carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an assetâs fair value less
costs of disposal and value in use. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are Companyed at the lowest
levels for which there are separately identifiable cash inflows which are largely independent of the cash inflows from
Other assets or Companyâs of assets (cash-generating units). Non Financial assets other than goodwill that suffered
an impairment are reviewed for possible reversal of the impairment at the end of each reporting period.
(e) Borrowing Costs
General and specific borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of
a qualifying asset are capitalised during the period of time that is required to complete and prepare the asset for its
intended use or sale. Qualifying assets are assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for
their intended use or sale.
Investment income earned on the temporary investment of specific borrowings pending their expenditure on
qualifying assets is deducted from the borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation.
Other borrowing costs are expensed in the period in which they are incurred.
(f) Leases
Assets and liabilities arising from a lease are initially measured on a present value basis. Lease liabilities include the
net present value of the following lease payments:
⢠fixed payments (including in-substance fixed payments), less any lease incentives receivable
⢠variable lease payment that are based on an index or a rate, initially measured using the index or rate as at the
commencement date
⢠amounts expected to be payable by the Company under residual value guarantees
⢠the exercise price of a purchase option if the Company is reasonably certain to exercise that option, and
⢠payments of penalties for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the Company exercising that option.
Lease payments to be made under reasonably certain extension options are also included in the measurement of
the liability. The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease. If that rate cannot be
readily determined, which is generally the case for leases in the Company, the lesseeâs incremental borrowing rate is
used, being the rate that the individual lessee would have to pay to borrow the funds necessary to obtain an asset of
similar value to the right-of-use asset in a similar economic environment with similar terms, security and conditions.
To determine the incremental borrowing rate, the Company:
⢠where possible, uses recent third-party financing received by the individual lessee as a starting point, adjusted
to reflect changes in financing conditions since third party financing was received
⢠uses a build-up approach that starts with a risk-free interest rate adjusted for credit risk for leases held by
Tarsons Products Limited, which does not have recent third party financing
⢠makes adjustments specific to the lease, e.g. term, country, currency and security.
If a readily observable amortising loan rate is available to the individual lessee (through recent financing or market
data) which has a similar payment profile to the lease, then the Company entities use that rate as a starting point to
determine the incremental borrowing rate.
Lease payments are allocated between principal and Finance cost. The Finance cost is charged to profit or loss over
the lease period so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability for each
period.
Right-of-use assets are measured at cost comprising the following:
⢠the amount of the initial measurement of lease liability
⢠any lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received
⢠any initial direct costs
⢠restoration costs.
Right-of-use assets are generally depreciated over the shorter of the assetâs useful life and the lease term on a
straight-line basis. If the Company is reasonably certain to exercise a purchase option, the right-of-use asset is
depreciated over the underlying assetâs useful life.
Payments associated with short-term leases of equipment and all leases of low-value assets are recognised on a
straight-line basis as an expense in profit or loss. Short-term leases are leases with a lease term of 12 months or
less. Low-value assets comprise IT equipment and small items of office furniture.
(i) Short-term employee benefits
Liabilities for wages and salaries, including non-monetary benefits that are expected to be settled wholly within
12 months after the end of the period in which the employees render the related service are recognised in
respect of employeesâ services up to the end of the reporting period and are measured at the amounts expected
to be paid when the liabilities are settled. The liabilities are presented as current employee benefit obligations in
the balance sheet.
(ii) Defined contribution plans
A defined contribution plan is a post-employment benefit plan under which an entity pays fixed contributions
into a separate entity and will have no legal or constructive obligation to pay further amounts. The Company
makes specified monthly contributions towards Government administered provident fund scheme. Obligations
for contributions to defined contribution plans are recognised as an employee benefit expense in profit or loss
in the periods during which the related services are rendered by employees.
Prepaid contributions are recognised as an asset to the extent that a cash refund or a reduction in future
payments is available.
(iii) Defined benefit plans
The Company provides for gratuity, a defined benefit retirement plan ("the Gratuity Plan") covering eligible
employees. The Gratuity Plan provides a lump-sum payment to vested employees at retirement, death,
incapacitation or termination of employment, of an amount based on the respective employeeâs salary and the
tenure of employment with the Company.
The liability or asset recognised in the balance sheet in respect of gratuity plan is the present value of the
defined benefit obligation at the end of the reporting period less the fair value of plan assets. The defined benefit
obligation is calculated annually by actuaries using the projected unit credit method.
The present value of the defined benefit obligation denominated in INR is determined by discounting the
estimated future cash outflows by reference to market yields at the end of the reporting period on government
bonds that have terms approximating to the terms of the related obligation.
The net interest cost is calculated by applying the discount rate to the net balance of the defined benefit
obligation and the fair value of plan assets. This cost is included in employee benefit expense in the statement
of profit and loss.
Remeasurement gains and losses arising from experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions
are recognised in the period in which they occur, directly in other comprehensive income. They are included in
retained earnings in the statement of changes in equity and in the balance sheet.
Changes in the present value of the defined benefit obligation resulting from plan amendments or curtailments
are recognised immediately in statement of profit and loss as past service cost.
(iv) Compensated absences
Accumulated leave, which is expected to be utilized within the next 12 months, is treated as short-term employee
Benefit. The Company measures the expected cost of such absence as the additonal amount that it expects to
pay as a result of the unused entitlement that has accumulated at the reporting date.
(h) Income Tax
The Income tax expense or credit for the period is the tax payable on the current periodâs taxable income based on
the applicable income tax rate adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to temporary
differences and to unused tax losses, if any.
The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at
the end of the reporting period. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in tax returns with respect
to situations in which applicable tax regulation is subject to interpretation and considers whether it is probable
that a taxation authority will accept an uncertain tax treatment. The Company measures its tax balances either
based on the most likely amount or the expected value, depending on which method provides a better prediction
of the resolution of the uncertainty.
(ii) Deferred Tax
Deferred income tax is provided in full, using the liability method, on temporary differences arising between the
tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. However, deferred tax
liabilities are not recognised if they arise from the initial recognition of goodwill. Deferred income tax is also not
accounted for if it arises from initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction other than a business
combination that at the time of the transaction affects neither accounting profit nor taxable profit (tax loss).
Deferred income tax is determined using tax rates (and laws) that have been enacted or substantially enacted
by the end of the reporting period and are expected to apply when the related deferred income tax asset is
realised or the deferred income tax liability is settled.
Deferred tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses only if it is
probable that future taxable amounts will be available to utilise those temporary differences and losses.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset where there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets
and liabilities and where the deferred tax balances relate to the same taxation authority. Current tax assets and
tax liabilities are offset where the entity has a legally enforceable right to offset and intends either to settle on a
net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
Current and deferred tax is recognised in profit or loss, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in
other comprehensive income or directly in equity. In this case, the tax is also recognised in other comprehensive
income or directly in equity, respectively.

(a) certain Financial assets and liabilities that is measured at fair value and
(b) defined benefit plans - plan assets measured at fair value
(iv) Current versus Non-current Classification
The Company presents assets and liabilities in the balance sheet based on current/non- current classification. An asset is classified as current when it is:
a) expected to be realised or intended to be sold or consumed in the normal operating cycle,
b) held primarily for the purpose of trading,
c) expected to be realised within twelve months after the reporting period, or
d) cash or cash equivalents unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period.
All other assets are classified as non-current.
A liability is classified as current when:
a) it is expected to be settled in the normal operating cycle,
b) it is held primarily for the purpose of trading,
c) it is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period, or
d) there is no unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period.
All other liabilities are classified as non-current.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as non-current.
The operating cycle is the time between the acquisition of assets for processing and their realization in cash and cash equivalents. the Company has identified twelve months as its operating cycle.
(v) New and amended standards adopted by the Company
The Ministry of Corporate Affairs vide notification dated 31st March, 2023 notified the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Amendment Rules, 2023, which amended certain accounting standards (see below), and are effective 1st April, 2023:
- Disclosure of accounting policies - amendments to Ind AS 1
- Definition of accounting estimates - amendments to Ind AS 8
- Deferred tax related to assets and liabilities arising from a single transaction - amendments to Ind AS 12 The other amendments to Ind AS notified by these rules are primarily in the nature of clarifications.
These amendments did not have any material impact on the amounts recognized in prior periods and are not expected to significantly affect the current or future periods. Further, amendment to Ind AS 1, although did not result in any changes in the accounting policy themselves, they impacted the accounting policy information disclosed in the standalone financial statements.
(c) Use of estimates and judgements
The preparation of standalone financial statements in conformity with Ind AS requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of these standalone financial statements. Actual results may differ from these estimates. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on a periodic basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimates are revised and in any future periods affected.
This note provides an overview of the areas that involved a higher degree of judgement or complexity, and of items which are more likely to be materially adjusted due to estimates and assumptions turning out to be different than those originally assessed. Detailed information about each of these estimates and judgements is included in relevant notes together with information about the basis of calculation for each affected line item in the standalone financial statements.
The areas involving critical estimates or judgements are:
⢠Estimated useful life of Property, plant and equipment: Management reviews its estimate of the useful lives of Property, plant and equipment at each reporting date, based on the expected utility of the assets. Uncertainties in these estimates relate to technical and economic obsolescence that may change the utility of Property, plant and equipment.
Estimation of defined benefit obligation: Measurement of defined benefit obligation and related under plans require numerous assumptions and estimates that can have a significant impact on the recognized costs and obligation, such as future salary level, discount rate, attrition rate and mortality. Ref note 32.
Impairment of Trade receivable: The loss allowances for Financial assets are based on assumptions about risk of default and expected loss rates. The Company uses judgement in making these assumptions and selecting the inputs to the impairment calculation.
Determination of lease term: I n determining the lease term, management considers all facts and circumstances that create an economic incentive to exercise an extension option, or not exercise a termination option. Extension options (or periods after termination options) are only included in the lease term if the lease is reasonably certain to be extended (or not terminated).
Impairment of Investments in Subsidiaries: Determining whether the investments in subsidiaries are impaired requires an estimate of the value in use of investments. In considering the value in use, the management anticipates the future commodity prices, capacity utilization of plant, order book position, operating margins, discount rates and other factors of the underlying businesses / operations of the subsidiaries.
Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated. They are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that may have a financial impact on the Company and that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
2 MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
This note provides a list of the material accounting policies adopted in the preparation of these Indian Accounting Standards (Ind-AS) standalone financial statements.These policies have been consistently applied to all the years except where newly issued accounting standard is initially adopted.
2.1 Property, plant and equipment
(i) Recognition and measurement
Freehold land is carried at historical cost. All other items of property, plant and equipment are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any.
(ii) Depreciation methods, Estimated Useful Lives and Residual Value
Depreciation is calculated on cost of items of property, plant and equipment less their estimated residual values over their estimated useful lives using the written-down value method, and is generally recognized in the statement of profit and loss. Freehold land is not depreciated.
The estimated useful lives of items of Property, plant and equipment for the current and comparative periods are as follows:
|
Asset |
Useful Life |
|
Building |
30 to 60 Years |
|
Plant and Machinery and mould |
15 Years |
|
Electricals Equipment and Fittings |
10 Years |
|
Computers |
3 Years |
|
Furniture & Fixtures |
10 Years |
|
Office Equipments |
5 Years |
|
Vehicles |
8 Years |
Leasehold improvements (included under the block of assets as specified above) are depreciated over the shorter of their useful life or lease term, unless the entity expects to use the assets beyond lease term.
Depreciation method, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at each financial year-end and adjusted if appropriate. Based on technical evaluation and consequent advice, the management believes that its estimates of useful lives as given above best represent the period over which management expects to use these assets. The residual values are considered by the Management as per the limits specified in Part A of Schedule II of the Companies Act, 2013.
Depreciation on additions (disposals) is provided on a pro-rata basis i.e. from (up to) the date on which asset is ready for use (disposed of).
(i) Recognition and measurement Computer Software
Intangible assets acquired are reported at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses, if any.
Computer Software for internal use, which is primarily acquired from third-party vendors is capitalized. Cost associated with maintaining software programmes are recognized as an expense as incurred. Cost of computer software includes license fees and cost of implementation/system integration services, where applicable.
(ii) Amortisation methods and periods
Amortisation is charged on a written down basis over their estimated useful lives. The estimated useful life and amortization method are reviewed at the end of each annual reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimate being accounted for on a prospective basis.
Computer softwares are amortized over the useful life of 5 years.
Revenue from sale of products is recognized at the point in time when control of the goods is transferred to the customer,being when the products are delivered to the customer, the customer has the full discretion over the channel and price to sell the products and there is no unfulfilled obligation that could affect the customer''s acceptance of the products. Delivery occurs when the products have been shipped to the specific location, the risks of obsolescence and loss have been transferred to the customer and rather the customer accepted the products on accordance with the sales contract, the acceptance provision have lapsed or the Company has objective evidence that all criteria for acceptance have been satisfied.
The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of prdocuts measured at the transaction price allocated to the performance onligation which is the price specified in the contract, net of returns and allowances, trade discounts, volume rebates and excluding taxes or duties collected.Such provisions give rise to variable consideration and are estimated at contract inception and updated thereafter. Revenue from value added services, namely freight and shipping insurance, is recognized as and when services are rendered, as per the terms agreed with the customers.
a. A refund liability is recognized for expected volume discounts payable for sales made till the end of the reporting period.
b. If a customer pays consideration before the Company transfers goods or services to the customer, an advance from customers (contract liability) is recognized when the payment is made or the payment is due (whichever is earlier). Contract liabilities are recognized as revenue when the Company performs under the contract.
c. The Company does not have any contracts where the period between the transfer of the promised goods or services to the customer and payment by the customer exceeds one year. As a consequence, the Company does not adjust any of the transaction prices for the time value of money since the Company does not have any significant financing element included in the sales made.
(i) Classification
The Company classifies its Financial assets in the following measurement categories:
those to be measured subsequently at fair value (either through other comprehensive income, or through profit or loss), and
those to be measured at amortized cost.
The classification depends on the entity''s business model for managing the Financial assets and the contractual terms of the cash flows.
For assets measured at fair value, gains and losses will either be recorded in profit or loss or other comprehensive income. For investments in equity instruments that are not held for trading, this will depend on whether the Company has made an irrevocable election at the time of initial recognition to account for the equity investment at FVOCI.
The Company reclassifies debt investments when and only its business model for managing those assets changes.
Regular way purchases and sales of Financial assets are recognized on trade-date, being the date on which the Company commits to purchase or sale the financial asset.
(iii) Measurement
At initial recognition, the Company measures a financial asset at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial asset not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset. Transaction costs of Financial assets carried at fair value through profit or loss are expensed in profit or loss.
Debt instruments
Subsequent measurement of debt instruments depends on the Company''s business model for managing the asset and the cash flow characteristics of the asset. There are three measurement categories into which the Company classifies its debt instruments:
Amortised cost: Assets that are held for collection of contractual cash flows where those cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest are measured at amortized cost. A gain or loss on a debt investment that is subsequently measured at amortized cost is recognized in profit or loss when the asset is derecognized or impaired. Interest income from these Financial assets is included in finance income using the effective interest rate method.
Fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI): Assets that are held for collection of contractual cash flows and for selling the Financial assets, where the assets'' cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest, are measured at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI). Movements in the carrying amount are taken through OCI, except for the recognition of impairment gains or losses, interest 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 or loss. Interest income from these Financial assets is included in Other income using the effective interest rate method.
Fair value through profit or loss: Assets that do not meet the criteria for amortized cost or FVOCI are measured at fair value through profit or loss. A gain or loss on a debt investment that is subsequently measured at fair value through profit or loss is recognized in profit or loss and presented net in the statement of profit and loss in the period in which it arises. Interest income from these Financial assets is included in Other income.
Equity Instruments
The Company subsequently measures all equity investments at fair value. Where the Company''s management has elected to present fair value gains and losses on equity investments in other comprehensive income, there is no subsequent reclassification of fair value gains and losses to profit or loss following the derecognition of the investment. Dividends from such investments are recognized in profit or loss as Other income when the Company''s right to receive payments is established.
Changes in the fair value of Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are recognized in Other income in the statement of profit and loss. Impairment losses (and reversal of impairment losses) on equity investments measured at FVOCI are not reported separately from other changes in fair value.
(iv) Derecognition
A financial asset is derecognized only when
The Company has transferred the rights to receive cash flows from the financial asset or
retains the contractual rights to receive the cash flows of the financial asset, but assumes a contractual obligation to pay the cash flows to one or more recipients.
Where the entity has transferred an asset, the Company evaluates whether it has transferred substantially all risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset. In such cases, the financial asset is derecognized. Where the entity has not transferred substantially all risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset, the financial asset is not derecognized.
Where the entity has neither transferred a financial asset nor retains substantially all risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset, the financial asset is derecognized if the Company has not retained control of the financial asset. Where the Company retains control of the financial asset, the asset is continued to be recognized to the extent of continuing involvement in the financial asset.
(v) Impairment of Financial assets
The Company recognizes loss allowances for expected credit losses on:
- Financial assets measured at amortized cost; and
- Financial assets measured at FVOCI- debt investments.
At each reporting date, the Company assesses whether Financial assets carried at amortized cost and debt securities at FVOCI are credit- impaired. A financial asset is ''credit- impaired'' when one or more events that have a detrimental impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset have occurred.
The Company recognizes loss allowances using the expected credit loss (ECL) model for the Financial assets which are measured at amortized cost. The Company does not have any Financial assets which are carried at fair value through profit or loss or at FVOCI. Loss allowance for Trade receivables with no significant financing component is measured at an amount equal to lifetime ECL. For all Other financial assets (i.e. cash and bank balances and Other financial assets) , expected credit losses are measured at an amount equal to the 12 month ECL, unless there has been a significant increase in credit risk from initial recognition in which case those are measured at lifetime ECL. The amount of expected credit losses (or reversal) that is required to adjust the loss allowance at the reporting date to the amount that is required to be recognized, is recognized as an impairment gain or loss in the statement of profit and loss.
The cost of indivisual items of inventory is determined using the First-in-First out (FIFO) method. Volume rebates or discounts are taken into account when estimating the cost of inventory if it is probable that they have been earned and will take effect.
2.6 Leases Company as a lessee
The Company''s lease asset classes primarily comprise of lease for land and building. The Company applies a single recognition and measurement approach for all leases, except for short-term leases and leases of low-value assets. The Company recognizes lease liabilities to make lease payments and right-of-use assets representing the right to use the underlying assets.
(i) Right-of-use assets (ROU)
The Company classifies ROU assets separate from the Property plant and equipment in Balance Sheet and lease liability in "Financial Liability".
(ii) Lease Liabilities
In calculating the present value of lease payments, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate at the lease commencement date because the interest rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable.
(iii) Short-term leases and leases of low-value assets
The Company applies the short-term lease recognition exemption to its shortterm leases (i.e., those leases that have a lease term of 12 months or less from the commencement date and do not contain a purchase option). It also applies the lease of low-value assets recognition exemption to leases that are considered to be low value. Lease payments on short-term leases and leases of low-value assets are recognized as expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
2.7 Borrowings and Other financial liabilities
Borrowings are initially recognized at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently measured at amortized cost. Any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption amount is recognized in profit or loss over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method. Fees paid on the establishment of loan facilities are recognized as transaction costs of the loan to the extent that it is probable that some or all of the facility will be drawn down. In this case, the fee is deferred until the draw down occurs. To the extent there is no evidence that it is probable that some or all of the facility will be drawn down, the fee is capitalized as a prepayment for liquidity services and amortized over the period of the facility to which it relates.
Borrowings are removed from the balance sheet when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged, cancelled or expired. The difference between the carrying amount of a financial liability that has been extinguished or transferred to another party and the consideration paid, including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed, is recognized in profit or loss.
Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the Company has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period.Where there is a breach of material provision of a long-term loan arrangement on or before the end of the reporting period with the effect that the liability becomes payble on demand on the reporting date, the enity does not classify the liability as current, if the lender agreed, after the reporting period and before the approval of the financial statemets for issue, not to demand payment as a consequence of the breach.
This note provides a list of the material accounting policies adopted in the preparation of these Indian Accounting Standards (Ind-AS) standalone financial statements.These policies have been consistently applied to all the years except where newly issued accounting standard is initially adopted.
(a) Property, plant and equipment
(i) Recognition and measurement
Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the items.
Subsequent costs are included in the asset''s carrying amount or recognized as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of any component accounted for as a separate asset is derecognized when replaced. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to profit or loss during the reporting period in which they are incurred.
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.
An asset''s carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset''s carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount.
Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with carrying amount.These are included in profit or loss within Other Income.
(ii) Transition to Ind AS
On transition to Ind AS, the Company has elected to continue with the carrying value of all of its Property, plant and equipment recognized as at 1st April, 2019 measured as per the previous GAAP and use that carrying value as the deemed cost of the Property, plant and equipment.
(b) Capital Work in Progress
(i) Recognition and measurement
Expenditure incurred on construction of assets which are not ready for their intended use are carried at cost less impairment (if any), under Capital work-in-progress. The cost includes the purchase cost of materials, including import duties and non-refundable taxes, interest on borrowings used to finance the construction of the asset and any directly attributable costs of bringing an asset ready for their intended use.
(c) Intangible Assets and Intangible Assets under development
(i) Recognition and measurement
Development costs that are directly attributable to the design and testing of identifiable and unique software products controlled by the Company are recognized as intangible assets where the following criteria are met:
⢠it is technically feasible to complete the software so that it will be available for use
⢠management intends to complete the software and use or sell it
⢠there is an ability to use or sell the software
⢠it can be demonstrated how the software will generate probable future economic benefits
⢠adequate technical, financial and other resources to complete the development and to use or sell the software are available, and
⢠the expenditure attributable to the software during its development can be reliably measured.
Capitalised development costs are recorded as intangible assets and amortized from the point at which the asset is available for use.
Expenditure incurred on development of an intangible assets which are not ready for their intended use are carried at cost less impairment (if any), under Intangible Assets under development.
(ii) Transition to Ind AS
On transition to Ind AS, the Company has elected to continue with the carrying value of all intangible assets measured at per the previous GAAP and use that carrying value as the deemed cost of intangible assets.
(d) Impairment of other assets
Non-financial assets are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which the asset''s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset''s fair value less costs of disposal and value in use. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are Companyed at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash inflows which are largely independent of the cash inflows from Other assets or Company''s of assets (cash-generating units). Non Financial assets other than goodwill that suffered an impairment are reviewed for possible reversal of the impairment at the end of each reporting period.
(e) Borrowing Costs
General and specific borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset are capitalized during the period of time that is required to complete and prepare the asset for its intended use or sale. Qualifying assets are assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use or sale.
Investment income earned on the temporary investment of specific borrowings pending their expenditure on qualifying assets is deducted from the borrowing costs eligible for capitalization.
Other borrowing costs are expensed in the period in which they are incurred.
(f) Leases
Assets and liabilities arising from a lease are initially measured on a present value basis. Lease liabilities include the net present value of the following lease payments:
fixed payments (including in-substance fixed payments), less any lease incentives receivable
variable lease payment that are based on an index or a rate, initially measured using the index or rate as at the commencement date
amounts expected to be payable by the Company under residual value guarantees
the exercise price of a purchase option if the Company is reasonably certain to exercise that option, and
payments of penalties for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the Company exercising that option.
Lease payments to be made under reasonably certain extension options are also included in the measurement of the liability. The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease. If that rate cannot be readily determined, which is generally the case for leases in the Company, the lessee''s incremental borrowing rate is used, being the rate that the individual lessee would have to pay to borrow the funds necessary to obtain an asset of similar value to the right-of-use asset in a similar economic environment with similar terms, security and conditions.
To determine the incremental borrowing rate, the Company:
where possible, uses recent third-party financing received by the individual lessee as a starting point, adjusted to reflect changes in financing conditions since third party financing was received
uses a build-up approach that starts with a risk-free interest rate adjusted for credit risk for leases held by Tarsons Products Limited, which does not have recent third party financing
makes adjustments specific to the lease, e.g. term, country, currency and security.
If a readily observable amortizing loan rate is available to the individual lessee (through recent financing or market data) which has a similar payment profile to the lease, then the Company entities use that rate as a starting point to determine the incremental borrowing rate.
Lease payments are allocated between principal and Finance cost. The Finance cost is charged to profit or loss over the lease period so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability for each period.
Right-of-use assets are measured at cost comprising the following: the amount of the initial measurement of lease liability
any lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received any initial direct costs restoration costs.
Right-of-use assets are generally depreciated over the shorter of the asset''s useful life and the lease term on a straight-line basis. If the Company is reasonably certain to exercise a purchase option, the right-of-use asset is depreciated over the underlying asset''s useful life.
Payments associated with short-term leases of equipment and all leases of low-value assets are recognized on a straight-line basis as an expense in profit or loss. Short-term leases are leases with a lease term of 12 months or less. Low-value assets comprise IT equipment and small items of office furniture.
(g) Employee Benefits
(i) Short-term employee benefits
Liabilities for wages and salaries, including non-monetary benefits that are expected to be settled wholly within 12 months after the end of the period in which the employees render the related service are recognized in respect of employees'' services up to the end of the reporting period and are measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled. The liabilities are presented as current employee benefit obligations in the balance sheet.
(ii) Defined contribution plans
A defined contribution plan is a post-employment benefit plan under which an entity pays fixed contributions into a separate entity and will have no legal or constructive obligation to pay further amounts. The Company makes specified monthly contributions towards Government administered provident fund scheme. Obligations
for contributions to defined contribution plans are recognized as an employee benefit expense in profit or loss in the periods during which the related services are rendered by employees.
Prepaid contributions are recognized as an asset to the extent that a cash refund or a reduction in future payments is available.
(iii) Defined benefit plans
The Company provides for gratuity, a defined benefit retirement plan ("the Gratuity Plan") covering eligible employees. The Gratuity Plan provides a lump-sum payment to vested employees at retirement, death, incapacitation or termination of employment, of an amount based on the respective employee''s salary and the tenure of employment with the Company.
The liability or asset recognized in the balance sheet in respect of gratuity plan is the present value of the defined benefit obligation at the end of the reporting period less the fair value of plan assets. The defined benefit obligation is calculated annually by actuaries using the projected unit credit method.
The present value of the defined benefit obligation denominated in '' is determined by discounting the estimated future cash outflows by reference to market yields at the end of the reporting period on government bonds that have terms approximating to the terms of the related obligation.
The net interest cost is calculated by applying the discount rate to the net balance of the defined benefit obligation and the fair value of plan assets. This cost is included in employee benefit expense in the statement of profit and loss.
Remeasurement gains and losses arising from experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions are recognized in the period in which they occur, directly in other comprehensive income. They are included in retained earnings in the statement of changes in equity and in the balance sheet.
Changes in the present value of the defined benefit obligation resulting from plan amendments or curtailments are recognized immediately in statement of profit and loss as past service cost.
(iv) Compensated absences
Accumulated leave, which is expected to be utilized within the next 12 months, is treated as short-term employee bnenefit. The Company measures the expected cost of such absence as the additonal amount that it expects to pay as a result of the unused entitlement that has accumulated at the reporting date.
(h) Income Tax
The Income tax expense or credit for the period is the tax payable on the current period''s taxable income based on the applicable income tax rate adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to temporary differences and to unused tax losses, if any.
(i) Current Tax
The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the end of the reporting period. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulation is subject to interpretation and considers whether it is probable that a taxation authority will accept an uncertain tax treatment. The Company measures its tax balances either based on the most likely amount or the expected value, depending on which method provides a better prediction of the resolution of the uncertainty.
(ii) Deferred Tax
Deferred income tax is provided in full, using the liability method, on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. However, deferred tax liabilities are not recognized if they arise from the initial recognition of goodwill. Deferred income tax is also not accounted for if it arises from initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction other than a business combination that at the time of the transaction affects neither accounting profit nor taxable profit (tax loss).
Deferred income tax is determined using tax rates (and laws) that have been enacted or substantially enacted by the end of the reporting period and are expected to apply when the related deferred income tax asset is realised or the deferred income tax liability is settled.
Deferred tax assets are recognized for all deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses only if it is probable that future taxable amounts will be available to utilize those temporary differences and losses.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset where there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets and liabilities and where the deferred tax balances relate to the same taxation authority. Current tax assets and tax liabilities are offset where the entity has a legally enforceable right to offset and intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
Current and deferred tax is recognized in profit or loss, except to the extent that it relates to items recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. In this case, the tax is also recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, respectively.
(i) Provisions and Contingencies
(i) Provisions
Provisions are recognized when the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events, it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation and the amount can be reliably estimated. Provisions are not recognized for future operating losses.
Where there are a number of similar obligations, the likelihood that an outflow will be required in settlement is determined by considering the class of obligations as a whole. A provision is recognized even if the likelihood of an outflow with respect to any one item included in the same class of obligations may be small.
Provisions are measured at the present value of management''s best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period. The discount rate used to determine the present value is a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability. The increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognized as interest expense.
(ii) Contingencies
A contingent liability is a possible obligation that arises from past events whose existence will be confirmed by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events beyond the control of the Company or a present obligation that is not recognized because it is not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation. A contingent liability also arises in extremely rare cases where there is a liability that cannot be recognized because it cannot be measured reliably.
Contingent assets are not recognized but disclosed in the financial statements when an inflow of economic benefit is probable.
(j) Income recognition Dividend
Dividends are received from Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss and at FVOCI. Dividends are recognized as Other income in profit or loss when the right to receive payment is established. This applies even if they are paid out of pre-acquisition profits, unless the dividend clearly represents a recovery of part of the cost of the investment.
Interest income from Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss is disclosed as Interest income within other income. Interest income on Financial assets at amortized cost and Financial assets at FVOCI is calculated using the effective interest method is recognized in the statement of profit and loss as part of Other income. Interest income is calculated by applying the effective interest rate to the gross carrying amount of a financial asset except for Financial assets that subsequently become credit-impaired. For credit-impaired Financial assets the effective interest rate is applied to the net carrying amount of the financial asset (after deduction of the loss allowance).
Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the balance sheet where there is a legally enforceable right to offset the recognized amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. The legally enforceable right must not be contingent on future events and must be enforceable in the normal course of business and in the event of default, insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company or the counterparty.
(l) Inventories
Inventories are measured at the lower of cost or net realisable value. The cost of inventories includes expenditure incurred in acquiring the inventories, production or conversion costs and other costs incurred in bringing them to their present location and condition. The cost comprises cost of purchase, cost of conversion and other costs including appropriate production overheads in the case of finished goods and work in progress, incurred in bringing such inventories to their present location and condition.
Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs of completion and selling expenses.
The net realisable value of work-in-progress is determined with reference to the selling prices of related finished products.
Raw materials, components and other supplies held for use in the production of finished products are not written down below cost except in cases where material prices have declined and it is estimated that the cost of the finished products will exceed their net realisable value.
The comparison of cost and net realisable value is made on an item-by-item basis.
(m) Foreign Currency Translation
(i) Functional and presentation currency
Items included in the financial statements are measured using the currency of primary economic environment in which the entiry operates (''the functional currency''). The financial statement are presented in Indian rupee (''), which is Tarsons Produts Limited''s functional and presentation currency.
(ii) Transactions and balances
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at year end exchange rates are generally recognized in profit or loss.
All other foreign exchange gain and losses are presented in the statement of profit and loss on a net basis within Other income/(expense).
Non-monetary items that are measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value was determined. Non-monetary assets and non-monetary liabilities denominated in a foreign currency and measured at historical cost are translated at the exchange rate prevalent at the date of transaction.
(n) Trade receivables
Trade receivables are amounts due from customers for goods sold or services performed in the ordinary course of business. Trade receivables are recognized initially at the amount of consideration that is unconditional unless they contain significant financing components, when they are recognized at fair value. The Company holds the Trade receivables with the objective of collecting the contractual cash flows and therefore measures them subsequently at amortized cost using the effective interest method, less loss allowance.
These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Company prior to the end of financial year which are unpaid. The amounts are unsecured and are generally paid within 30 to 90 days of recognition. Trade and other payables are presented as current liabilities unless payment is not due within 12 months after the reporting period. They are recognized initially at their fair value and subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method.
(p) Cash and cash equivalents
For the purpose of presentation in the statement of cash flows, Cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, deposits held at call with financial institutions, other short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.
(q) Earnings Per Share
(i) Basic earnings per share
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing:
⢠the profit attributable to owners of the Company
⢠by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the financial year, adjusted for bonus element in equity shares issued during the year and excluding treasury share
(ii) Diluted earnings per share
Diluted earnings per share adjusts the figures used in the determination of basic earnings per share to take into account:
⢠the after income tax effect of interest and other financing costs associated with dilutive potential equity shares, and
⢠the weighted average number of additional equity shares that would have been outstanding assuming the conversion of all dilutive potential equity shares
(r) Segment Reporting
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker.
The Board of Directors of the Tarsons Products Limited has been identified as the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) as defined by Ind AS 108, Operating Segments. All operating segments'' operating results are reviewed regularly by the Company''s Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segments and assess their performance. Refer note 38 for details on segment information presented.
(s) Government Grant
Grants from the government are recognized at their fair value where there is a reasonable assurance that the grant will be received and the Company will comply with all attached conditions.
Government grants relating to income such as duty drawbacks and other export benefit entitlements are deferred and recognized in the profit or loss over the period necessary to match them with the costs that they are intended to compensate and presented within Other income.
Government grants relating to the purchase of Property, plant and equipment (Export Promotion Capital Goods) are included in non-current and current liabilities (as applicable) as deferred income and are credited to profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the expected lives of the related assets and presented within Other income.

(a) certain financial assets and liabilities that is measured at fair value and
(b) defined benefit plans - plan assets measured at fair value
(iv) New and amended standards adopted by the Company
The Ministry of Corporate Affairs had vide notification dated 23rd March, 2022 notified Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Amendment Rules, 2022 which amended certain accounting standards, and are effective 1st April, 2022.

These amendments are not expected to have a material impact on the Company in the current or future reporting periods and on foreseeable future transactions. Specifically, no changes would be necessary as a consequence of amendments made to Ind AS 12 as the Companyâs accounting policy already complies with the now mandatory treatment.
(vi) Use of estimates and judgements
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Ind AS requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on a periodic basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimates are revised and in any future periods affected.
This note provides an overview of the areas that involved a higher degree of judgement or complexity, and of items which are more likely to be materially adjusted due to estimates and assumptions turning out to be different than those originally assessed. Detailed information about each of these estimates and judgements is included in relevant notes together with information about the basis of calculation for each affected line item in the financial statements.
The areas involving critical estimates or judgements are:
⢠Estimated useful life of property, plant and equipment - Management reviews its estimate of the useful lives of property, plant and equipment at each reporting date, based on the expected utility of the assets. Uncertainties in these estimates relate to technical and economic obsolescence that may change the utility of property, plant and equipment.
Estimation of defined benefit obligation - Measurement of defined benefit obligation and related under plans require numerous assumptions and estimates that can have a significant impact on the recognized costs and obligation, such as future salary level, discount rate, attrition rate and mortality. Refer Note 30.
Impairment of trade receivable: The loss allowances for financial assets are based on assumptions about risk of default and expected loss rates. The Company uses judgement in making these assumptions and selecting the inputs to the impairment calculation.
⢠Determination of lease term - In determining the lease term, management considers all facts and circumstances that create an economic incentive to exercise an extension option, or not exercise a termination option. Extension options (or periods after termination options) are only included in the lease term if the lease is reasonably certain to be extended (or not terminated).
Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated. They are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that may have a financial impact on the Company and that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
2.2 Property, plant and equipment
(i) Recognition and measurement
Freehold land is carried at historical cost. All other items of property, plant and equipment are stated at historical cost less depreciation. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the items.
Subsequent costs are included in the assetâs carrying amount or recognized as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of any component accounted for as a separate asset is derecognized when replaced. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to profit or loss during the reporting period in which they are incurred.
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.
An assetâs carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the assetâs carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount.
Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with carrying amount. These are included in profit or loss within Other Income.
(ii) Transition to Ind AS
On transition to Ind AS, the Company has elected to continue with the carrying value of all of its property, plant and equipment measured as per the previous GAAP and use that carrying value as the deemed cost of the property, plant and equipment.
(iii) Depreciation methods, Estimated Useful Lives and Residual Value
Depreciation is calculated on cost of items of property, plant and equipment less their estimated residual values over their estimated useful lives using the written-down value method and is recognized in the statement of profit and loss. Freehold land is not depreciated.
The estimated useful lives of items of property, plant and equipment for the current and comparative periods are as follows:
|
Asset |
Useful Life |
|
Building |
30 to 60 Years |
|
Plant and Machinery and Moulds |
15 Years |
|
Electricals Equipment and Fittings |
10 Years |
|
Computers |
3 Years |
|
Furniture & Fixtures |
10 Years |
|
Office Equipments |
5 Years |
|
Vehicles |
8 Years |
Leasehold improvements (included under the block of assets as specified above) are depreciated over the shorter of their useful life or the lease term, unless the entity expects to use the assets beyond the lease term.
Depreciation method, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at each reporting period end and adjusted if appropriate. Based on technical evaluation, the management believes that its estimates of useful lives as given above best represent the period over which management expects to use these assets.
The residual values are considered by the Management as per the limits specified in Part A of Schedule II of the Companies Act, 2013.
Depreciation on additions (disposals) is provided on a pro-rata basis i.e. from (up to) the date on which asset is ready for use (disposed of).
Expenditure incurred on construction of assets which are not ready for their intended use are carried at cost less impairment (if any), under Capital work-in-progress. The cost includes the purchase cost of materials, including
import duties and non-refundable taxes, interest on borrowings used to finance the construction of the asset and any directly attributable costs of bringing an asset ready for their intended use.
2.4 Intangible Assets and Intangible Assets under development
(i) Software
Intangible assets acquired are reported at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses.
Cost associated with maintaining software programmes are recognized as an expense as incurred.
Development costs that are directly attributable to the design and testing of identifiable and unique software products controlled by the Company are recognized as intangible assets where the following criteria are met:
it is technically feasible to complete the software so that it will be available for use
⢠management intends to complete the software and use or sell it
there is an ability to use or sell the software
⢠it can be demonstrated how the software will generate probable future economic benefits
adequate technical, financial and other resources to complete the development and to use or sell the software are available, and
the expenditure attributable to the software during its development can be reliably measured.
Capitalized development costs are recorded as intangible assets and amortized from the point at which the asset is available for use.
Expenditure incurred on development of an intangible assets which are not ready for their intended use are carried at cost less impairment (if any), under Intangible Assets under development.
(ii) Transition to Ind AS
On transition to Ind AS, the Company has elected to continue with the carrying value of all of intangible assets measured as per the previous GAAP and use that carrying value as the deemed cost of intangible assets.
(iii) Amortization methods and periods
Amortization is charged on a written down basis over their estimated useful lives. The estimated useful life and amortization method are reviewed at the end of each annual reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimate being accounted for on a prospective basis.
Computer softwares are amortized over the useful life of 5 years.
General and specific borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset are capitalized during the period of time that is required to complete and prepare the asset for its intended use or sale. Qualifying assets are assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use or sale.
Investment income earned on the temporary investment of specific borrowings pending their expenditure on qualifying assets is deducted from the borrowing costs eligible for capitalization.
Other borrowing costs are expensed in the period in which they are incurred.
Assets and liabilities arising from a lease are initially measured on a present value basis. Lease liabilities include the net present value of the following lease payments:
⢠fixed payments (including in-substance fixed payments), less any lease incentives receivable
variable lease payment that are based on an index or a rate, initially measured using the index or rate as at the commencement date
amounts expected to be payable by the Company under residual value guarantees
the exercise price of a purchase option if the Company is reasonably certain to exercise that option, and
payments of penalties for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the Company exercising that option.
Lease payments to be made under reasonably certain extension options are also included in the measurement of the liability. The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease. If that rate cannot be readily determined, which is generally the case for leases in the Company, the lesseeâs incremental borrowing rate is used, being the rate that the individual lessee would have to pay to borrow the funds necessary to obtain an asset of similar value to the right-of-use asset in a similar economic environment with similar terms, security and conditions.
To determine the incremental borrowing rate, the Company:
where possible, uses recent third-party financing received by the individual lessee as a starting point, adjusted to reflect changes in financing conditions since third party financing was received
⢠uses a build-up approach that starts with a risk-free interest rate adjusted for credit risk for leases held by Tarsons Products Limited, which does not have recent third party financing
makes adjustments specific to the lease, e.g. term, country, currency and security.
If a readily observable amortizing loan rate is available to the individual lessee (through recent financing or market data) which has a similar payment profile to the lease, then the Company entities use that rate as a starting point to determine the incremental borrowing rate.
Lease payments are allocated between principal and Finance cost. The Finance cost is charged to profit or loss over the lease period so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability for each period.
Right-of-use assets are measured at cost comprising the following:
the amount of the initial measurement of lease liability
⢠any lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received any initial direct costs
⢠restoration costs.
Right-of-use assets are generally depreciated over the shorter of the assetâs useful life and the lease term on a straight-line basis. If the Company is reasonably certain to exercise a purchase option, the right-of-use asset is depreciated over the underlying assetâs useful life.
Payments associated with short-term leases of equipment and all leases of low-value assets are recognized on a straightline basis as an expense in profit or loss. Short-term leases are leases with a lease term of 12 months or less.
(i) Classification
The Company classifies its financial assets in the following measurement categories:
those to be measured subsequently at fair value (either through other comprehensive income, or through profit or loss), and
⢠those to be measured at amortized cost.
The classification depends on the entityâs business model for managing the financial assets and the contractual terms of the cash flows.
For assets measured at fair value, gains and losses will either be recorded in profit or loss or other comprehensive income. For investments in equity instruments that are not held for trading, this will depend on whether the Company has made an irrevocable election at the time of initial recognition to account for the equity investment at FVOCI.
The Company reclassifies debt investments when and only when its business model for managing those assets changes.
(ii) Recognition
Regular way purchases and sales of financial assets are recognized on trade-date, being the date on which the Company commits to purchase or sale the financial asset.
(iii) Measurement
At initial recognition, the Company measures a financial asset (excluding trade receivables which do not contain a significant financing component) at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial asset not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset. Transaction costs of financial assets carried at fair value through profit or loss are expensed in profit or loss.
Subsequent measurement of debt instruments depends on the Companyâs business model for managing the asset and the cash flow characteristics of the asset. There are three measurement categories into which the Company classifies its debt instruments:
Amortized cost: Assets that are held for collection of contractual cash flows where those cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest are measured at amortized cost. A gain or loss on a debt investment that is subsequently measured at amortized cost is recognized in profit or loss when the asset is derecognized or impaired. Interest income from these financial assets is included in Other income using the effective interest rate method.
⢠Fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI): Assets that are held for collection of contractual cash flows and for selling the financial assets, where the assetsâ cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest, are measured at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI). Movements in the carrying amount are taken through OCI, except for the recognition of impairment gains or losses, interest 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 or loss. Interest income from these financial assets is included in Other income using the effective interest rate method.
Fair value through profit or loss: Assets that do not meet the criteria for amortized cost or FVOCI are measured at fair value through profit or loss. A gain or loss on a debt investment that is subsequently measured at fair value through profit or loss is recognized in profit or loss and presented net in the statement of profit and loss in the period in which it arises. Interest income from these financial assets is included in Other income.
The Company subsequently measures all equity investments at fair value. Where the Companyâs management has elected to present fair value gains and losses on equity investments in other comprehensive income, there is no subsequent reclassification of fair value gains and losses to profit or loss following the derecognition of the investment. Dividends from such investments are recognized in profit or loss as Other income when the Companyâs right to receive payments is established.
Changes in the fair value of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are recognized in Other income in the statement of profit and loss. Impairment losses (and reversal of impairment losses) on equity investments measured at FVOCI are not reported separately from other changes in fair value.
(iv) Derecognition
A financial asset is derecognized only when
⢠the Company has transferred the rights to receive cash flows from the financial asset or
retains the contractual rights to receive the cash flows of the financial asset but assumes a contractual obligation to pay the cash flows to one or more recipients.
Where the entity has transferred an asset, the Company evaluates whether it has transferred substantially all risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset. In such cases, the financial asset is derecognized. Where the entity has not transferred substantially all risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset, the financial asset is not derecognized.
Where the entity has neither transferred a financial asset nor retains substantially all risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset, the financial asset is derecognized if the Company has not retained control of the financial asset. Where the Company retains control of the financial asset, the asset is continued to be recognized to the extent of continuing involvement in the financial asset.
(v) Income recognition Dividend
Dividends are received from Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss and at FVOCI. Dividends are recognized as Other income in profit or loss when the right to receive payment is established. This applies even if they are paid out of pre-acquisition profits, unless the dividend clearly represents a recovery of part of the cost of the investment.
Interest income from financial assets at fair value through profit or loss is disclosed as Interest income within other income. Interest income on Financial assets at amortized cost and Financial assets at FVOCI is calculated using the effective interest method is recognized in the statement of profit and loss as part of Other income.
Interest income is calculated by applying the effective interest rate to the gross carrying amount of a financial asset except for Financial assets that subsequently become credit-impaired. For credit-impaired Financial assets the effective interest rate is applied to the net carrying amount of the financial asset (after deduction of the loss allowance).
(vi) Offsetting
Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the balance sheet where there is a legally enforceable right to offset the recognized amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. The legally enforceable right must not be contingent on future events and must be enforceable in the normal course of business and in the event of default, insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company or the counterparty.
(a) Impairment of financial assets
The Company recognizes loss allowances for expected credit losses on:
- Financial assets measured at amortized cost; and
- Financial assets measured at FVOCI- debt investments.
At each reporting date, the Company assesses whether financial assets carried at amortized cost and debt securities at FVOCI are credit- impaired. A financial asset is ''credit- impairedâ when one or more events that have a detrimental impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset have occurred.
The Company recognizes loss allowances using the expected credit loss (ECL) model for the financial assets which are measured at amortized cost. The Company does not have any financial assets which are carried at fair value through profit or loss or at FVOCI. Loss allowance for trade receivables with no significant financing component is measured at an amount equal to lifetime ECL. For all Other financial assets (i.e. cash and bank balances and Other financial assets), expected credit losses are measured at an amount equal to the 12 month ECL, unless there has been a significant increase in credit risk from initial recognition in which case those are measured at lifetime ECL. The amount of expected credit losses (or reversal) that is required to adjust the loss allowance at the reporting date to the amount that is required to be recognized, is recognized as an impairment gain or loss in the statement of profit and loss.
2.9 Impairment of other assets
Non-financial assets are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which the assetâs carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an assetâs fair value less costs of disposal and value in use. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash inflows which are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets (cashgenerating units). Non-financial assets that suffered an impairment are reviewed for possible reversal of the impairment at the end of each reporting period.
Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value. The cost of inventories includes expenditure incurred in acquiring the inventories, production or conversion costs and other costs incurred in bringing them to their present location and condition. Cost is determined using the First-in-First out (FIFO) method in respect of Raw Materials, Stock-intrade, Packing Materials and Consumable Stores and spares. The cost of work-in progress and finished goods comprises cost of purchase, cost of conversion and other costs including appropriate production overheads, incurred in bringing such inventories to their present location and condition.
Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs of completion and selling expenses.
The net realizable value of work-in-progress is determined with reference to the selling prices of related finished products.
Raw materials, components and other supplies held for use in the production of finished products are not written down below cost except in cases where material prices have declined and it is estimated that the cost of the finished products will exceed their net realizable value.
The comparison of cost and net realizable value is made on an item-by-item basis.
2.11 Foreign Currency Translation
(i) Functional and presentation currency
Items included in the financial statements are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (''the functional currencyâ). The financial statements are presented in Indian rupee (''), which is Tarsons Products Limitedâs functional and presentation currency.
(ii) Transactions and balances
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at year end exchange rates are generally recognized in profit or loss.
All other foreign exchange gains and losses are presented in the statement of profit and loss on a net basis within Other income /(expense).
Non-monetary items that are measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value was determined.
Revenue from sale of products is recognized at the point in time when control of the products is transferred to the customer, being when the products are delivered to the customer, the customer has full discretion over the channel and price to sell the products, and there is no unfulfilled obligation that could affect the customerâs acceptance of the products. Delivery occurs when the products have been shipped to the specific location, the risks of obsolescence and loss have been transferred to the customer, and either the customer has accepted the products in accordance with the sales contract, the acceptance provisions have lapsed, or the Company has objective evidence that all criteria for acceptance have been satisfied.
The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of products at the transaction price allocated to the performance obligation which is the price specified in the contract, net of returns and allowances, trade discounts, volume rebates and excluding taxes or duties collected. Such provisions give rise to variable consideration and are estimated at contract inception and updated thereafter. Revenue from value added services, namely freight and shipping insurance, is recognized as and when services are rendered, as per the terms agreed with the customers.
a. A refund liability is recognized for expected volume discounts payable for sales made till the end of the reporting period.
b. If a customer pays consideration before the Company transfers goods or services to the customer, an advance from customers (contract liability) is recognized when the payment is made or the payment is due (whichever is earlier). Contract liabilities are recognized as revenue when the Company performs under the contract.
c. The Company does not have any contracts where the period between the transfer of the promised goods or services to the customer and payment by the customer exceeds one year. As a consequence, the Company does not adjust any of the transaction prices for the time value of money since the Company does not have any significant financing element included in the sales made.
(i) Short-term employee benefits
Liabilities for wages and salaries, including non-monetary benefits that are expected to be settled wholly within 12 months after the end of the period in which the employees render the related service are recognized in respect of employeesâ services up to the end of the reporting period and are measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled. The liabilities are presented as current employee benefit obligations in the balance sheet.
(ii) Defined contribution plans
A defined contribution plan is a post-employment benefit plan under which an entity pays fixed contributions into a separate entity and will have no legal or constructive obligation to pay further amounts. The Company makes specified monthly contributions towards publicly administered provident fund as per the government regulation. The contributions to defined contribution plans are recognized as an employee benefit expense in profit or loss in the periods during which the related services are rendered by employees. Prepaid contributions are recognized as an asset to the extent that a cash refund or a reduction in future payments is available.
(iii) Defined benefit plans
The Company provides for gratuity, a defined benefit retirement plan ("the Gratuity Plan") covering eligible employees. The Gratuity Plan provides a lump-sum payment to vested employees at retirement, death, incapacitation or termination of employment, of an amount based on the respective employeeâs salary and the tenure of employment with the Company.
The liability or asset recognized in the balance sheet in respect of gratuity plan is the present value of the defined benefit obligation at the end of the reporting period less the fair value of plan assets. The defined benefit obligation is calculated annually by actuaries using the projected unit credit method.
The present value of the defined benefit obligation denominated in '' is determined by discounting the estimated future cash outflows by reference to market yields at the end of the reporting period on government bonds that have terms approximating to the terms of the related obligation.
The net interest cost is calculated by applying the discount rate to the net balance of the defined benefit obligation and the fair value of plan assets. This cost is included in employee benefit expense in the statement of profit and loss.
Remeasurement gains and losses arising from experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions are recognized in the period in which they occur, directly in other comprehensive income. They are included in retained earnings in the statement of changes in equity and in the balance sheet.
Changes in the present value of the defined benefit obligation resulting from plan amendments or curtailments are recognized immediately in statement of profit and loss as past service cost.
(iv) Compensated absences
Accumulated leave, which is expected to be utilized within the next 12 months, is treated as short-term employee benefit. The Company measures the expected cost of such absences as the additional amount that it expects to pay as a result of the unused entitlement that has accumulated at the reporting date.
The income tax expense or credit for the period is the tax payable on the current periodâs taxable income based on the applicable income tax rate adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to temporary differences and to unused tax losses, if any.
The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the end of the reporting period. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulation is subject to interpretation and considers whether it is probable that a taxation authority will accept an uncertain tax treatment. The Company measures its tax balances either based on the most likely amount or the expected value, depending on which method provides a better prediction of the resolution of the uncertainty.
(ii) Deferred Tax
Deferred income tax is provided in full, using the liability method, on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. Deferred income tax is also not accounted for if it arises from initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that at the time of the transaction affects neither accounting profit nor taxable profit (tax loss). Deferred income tax is determined using tax rates (and laws) that have been enacted or substantially enacted by the end of the reporting period and are expected to apply when the related deferred income tax asset is realized or the deferred income tax liability is settled.
Deferred tax assets are recognized for all deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses only if it is probable that future taxable amounts will be available to utilize those temporary differences and losses.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset where there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets and liabilities and where the deferred tax balances relate to the same taxation authority. Current tax assets and tax liabilities are offset where the entity has a legally enforceable right to offset and intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
Current and deferred tax is recognized in profit or loss, except to the extent that it relates to items recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. In this case, the tax is also recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, respectively.
2.15 Provisions and Contingencies
(i) Provisions
Provisions are recognized when the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events, it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation and the amount can be reliably estimated. Provisions are not recognized for future operating losses.
Where there are a number of similar obligations, the likelihood that an outflow will be required in settlement is determined by considering the class of obligations as a whole. A provision is recognized even if the likelihood of an outflow with respect to any one item included in the same class of obligations may be small.
Provisions are measured at the present value of management''s best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period. The discount rate used to determine the present value is a pretax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability. The increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognized as interest expense.
(ii) Contingencies
A contingent liability is a possible obligation that arises from past events whose existence will be confirmed by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events beyond the control of the Company or a present obligation that is not recognized because it is not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation. A contingent liability also arises in extremely rare cases where there is a liability that cannot be recognized because it cannot be measured reliably.
Contingent assets are not recognized but disclosed in the financial statements when an inflow of economic benefit is probable.
Trade receivables are amounts due from customers for goods sold or services performed in the ordinary course of business and reflects Companyâs unconditional right to consideration (that is, payment is due only on the passage of time). Trade receivables are recognized initially at the initially at the transaction price as they do not contain significant financing components. The Company holds the trade receivables with the objective of collecting the contractual cash flows and therefore measures them subsequently at amortized cost using the effective interest method, less loss allowance.
These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Company prior to the end of financial year which are unpaid. The amounts are unsecured and are generally paid within 30 to 90 days of recognition. Trade and other payables are presented as current liabilities unless payment is not due within 12 months after the reporting period. They are recognized initially at their fair value and subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method.
Borrowings are initially recognized at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently measured at amortized cost. Any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption amount is recognized in profit or loss over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method. Fees paid on the establishment of loan facilities are recognized as transaction costs of the loan to the extent that it is probable that some or all of the facility will be drawn down. In this case, the fee is deferred until the draw down occurs. To the extent there is no evidence that it is probable that some or all of the facility will be drawn down, the fee is capitalized as a prepayment for liquidity services and amortized over the period of the facility to which it relates.
Borrowings are removed from the balance sheet when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged, cancelled or expired. The difference between the carrying amount of a financial liability that has been extinguished or transferred to another party and the consideration paid, including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed, is recognized in profit or loss.
Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the Company has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period. Where there is a breach of a material provision of a long-term loan arrangement on or before the end of the reporting period with the effect that the liability becomes payable on demand on the reporting date, the entity does not classify the liability as current, if the lender agreed, after the reporting period and before the approval of the financial statements for issue, not to demand payment as a consequence of the breach.
2.19 Cash and cash equivalents
For the purpose of presentation in the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, deposits held at call with banks and financial institutions (including surplus balance in the cash credit accounts), other short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value
(i) Basic earnings per share
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing: the profit attributable to owners of the Company
by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the financial year, adjusted for bonus element in equity shares issued during the year
(ii) Diluted earnings per share
Diluted earnings per share adjusts the figures used in the determination of basic earnings per share to take into account:
the after income tax effect of interest and other financing costs associated with dilutive potential equity shares, and
the weighted average number of additional equity shares that would have been outstanding assuming the conversion of all dilutive potential equity shares
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker.
The Board of Directors of the Company has been identified as the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) as defined by Ind AS 108, Operating Segments. All operating segmentsâ operating results are reviewed regularly by the Companyâs Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segments and assess their performance. Refer Note 36 for details on segment information presented.
Grants from the government are recognized at their fair value where there is a reasonable assurance that the grant will be received and the Company will comply with all attached conditions.
Government grants relating to income such as duty drawbacks and other export benefit entitlements are deferred and recognized in the profit or loss over the period necessary to match them with the costs that they are intended to compensate and presented within other income.
Government grants relating to the purchase of property, plant and equipment (Export Promotion Capital Goods) are included in non-current and current liabilities (as applicable) as deferred income and are credited to profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the expected lives of the related assets and presented within other income.
Equity shares are classified as equity.
Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds.
The transaction costs incurred with respect to the IPO of the Company has been recognized as an asset to the extent considered recoverable from the selling shareholders. Remaining costs were allocated between new issue of shares and listing of existing equity shares. The costs attributable to listing of existing shares have been recognized in profit or loss. The remaining costs attributable to new issuance of shares have been recorded as a deduction from equity.
All amounts disclosed in the financial statements and notes have been rounded off to the nearest Million rupees upto two decimal places as per the requirement of Schedule III, unless otherwise stated.

The amendments listed above did not have any impact on the amounts recognized in prior periods and are not expected to significantly affect the current or future periods.
(v) New amendments issued but not effective
The Ministry of Corporate Affairs has vide notification dated 23rd March, 2022 notified Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Amendment Rules, 2022 which amends certain accounting standards, and are effective 1st April, 2022.
These amendments are not expected to have a material impact on the Company in the current or future reporting periods and on foreseeable future transactions.
(vi) Reclassifications consequent to amendments to Schedule III
The Ministry of Corporate Affairs amended the Schedule III to the Companies Act, 2013 on 24th March, 2021 to increase the transparency and provide additional disclosures to users of financial statements. These amendments are effective from 1st April, 2021.
Consequent to above, the Company has changed the classification/presentation of (i) current maturities of long-term borrowings in the current year.
The current maturities of long-term borrowings (including interest accrued) has now been included in the "Current borrowingsâ line item. Previously, current maturities of long-term borrowings and interest accrued were included in ''other financial liabilities'' line item.
The Company has reclassified comparative amounts to conform with current year presentation as per the requirements of Ind AS 1. The impact of such classifications is summarised below:
|
Balance Sheet (extract) |
31st March, 2021 (as previously reported) |
Increase / (Decrease) |
31st March, 2021 (restated) |
|
Current Borrowings |
230.77 |
71.03 |
301.80 |
|
Other Current Financial Liabilities |
97.97 |
(71.03) |
26.94 |
(vii) Use of estimates and judgements
The preparation of Standalone financial statements in conformity with Ind AS requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on a periodic basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimates are revised and in any future periods affected.
Assumptions and estimation uncertainties
This note provides an overview of the areas that involved a higher degree of judgement or complexity, and of items which are more likely to be materially adjusted due to estimates and assumptions turning out to be different than those originally assessed.
Detailed information about each of these estimates and judgements is included in relevant notes together with information about the basis of calculation for each affected line item in the Standalone financial statements.
The areas involving critical estimates or judgements are:
⢠Estimated useful life of property, plant and equipment - Management reviews its estimate of the useful lives of property, plant and equipment at each reporting date, based on the expected utility of the assets. Uncertainties in these estimates relate to technical and economy obsolescence that may change the utility of property, plant and equipment.
⢠Estimation of defined benefit obligation - Measurement of defined benefit obligation and related under plans require numerous assumptions and estimates that can have a significant impact on the recognized costs and obligation, such as future salary level, discount rate, attrition rate and mortality. Ref note 31.
⢠Impairment of trade receivable: The loss allowances for financial assets are based on assumptions about risk of default and expected loss rates. The Company uses judgement in making these assumptions and selecting the inputs to the impairment calculation.
⢠Determination of lease term - In determining the lease term, management considers all facts and circumstances that create an economic incentive to exercise an extension option, or not exercise a termination option. Extension options (or periods after termination options) are only included in the lease term if the lease is reasonably certain to be extended (or not terminated).
Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated. They are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that may have a financial impact on the Company and that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
2.2 Property, plant and equipment
(i) Recognition and measurement
Freehold land is carried at historical cost. All other items of property, plant and equipment are stated at historical cost less depreciation. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the items.
Subsequent costs are included in the asset''s carrying amount or recognized as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of any component accounted for as a separate asset is derecognized when replaced. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to profit or loss during the reporting period in which they are incurred.
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.
An asset''s carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset''s carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount.
Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with carrying amount.
(ii) Transition to Ind AS
On transition to Ind AS, the Company has elected to continue with the carrying value of all of its property, plant and equipment recognized as at 1st April, 2019 measured as per the previous GAAP and use that carrying value as the deemed cost of the property, plant and equipment.
(iii) Depreciation methods, Estimated Useful Lives and Residual Value
Depreciation is calculated on cost of items of property, plant and equipment less their estimated residual values over their estimated useful lives using the written-down value method, and is generally recognized in the Standalone statement of profit and loss. Freehold land is not depreciated.
The estimated useful lives of items of property, plant and equipment for the current and comparative periods are as follows:
|
Asset |
Useful Life |
|
Building |
30 to 60 Years |
|
Plant and Machinery and mould |
15 Years |
|
Electricals Equipment and Fittings |
10 Years |
|
Computers |
3 Years |
|
Furniture & Fixtures |
10 Years |
|
Office Equipments |
5 Years |
|
Vehicles |
8 Years |
Depreciation method, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at each financial year-end and adjusted if appropriate. Based on technical evaluation and consequent advice, the management believes that its estimates of useful lives as given above best represent the period over which management expects to use these assets.
The residual values are considered by the Management as per the limits specified in Part A of Schedule II of the Companies Act, 2013.
Depreciation on additions (disposals) is provided on a pro-rata basis i.e. from (up to) the date on which asset is ready for use (disposed of).
Expenditure incurred on construction of assets which are not ready for their intended use are carried at cost less impairment (if any), under Capital work-in-progress. The cost includes the purchase cost of materials, including import duties and nonrefundable taxes, interest on borrowings used to finance the construction of the asset and any directly attributable costs of bringing an assets ready for their intended use.
2.4 Intangible Assets and Intangible Assets under development
Intangible assets acquired are reported at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses. Amortization is charged on a written down basis over their estimated useful lives. The estimated useful life and amortization method are reviewed at the end of each annual reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimate being accounted for on a prospective basis.
Cost associated with maintaining software programmes are recognized as an expense as incurred.
Development costs that are directly attributable to the design and testing of identifiable and unique software products controlled by the Company are recognized as intangible assets where the following criteria are met:
⢠it is technically feasible to complete the software so that it will be available for use
⢠management intends to complete the software and use or sell it
⢠there is an ability to use or sell the software
⢠it can be demonstrated how the software will generate probable future economic benefits
⢠adequate technical, financial and other resources to complete the development and to use or sell the software are available, and
⢠the expenditure attributable to the software during its development can be reliably measured.
capitalized development costs are recorded as intangible assets and amortized from the point at which the asset is available for use.
Expenditure incurred on development of an intangible assets which are not ready for their intended use are carried at cost less impairment (if any), under Intangible Assets under development.
Computer softwares are amortized over the useful life of 5 years.
General and specific borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset are capitalized during the period of time that is required to complete and prepare the asset for its intended use or sale. Qualifying assets are assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use or sale.
Investment income earned on the temporary investment of specific borrowings pending their expenditure on qualifying assets is deducted from the borrowing costs eligible for capitalization.
Other borrowing costs are expensed in the period in which they are incurred.
Assets and liabilities arising from a lease are initially measured on a present value basis. Lease liabilities include the net present value of the following lease payments:
⢠fixed payments (including in-substance fixed payments), less any lease incentives receivable
⢠variable lease payment that are based on an index or a rate, initially measured using the index or rate as at the commencement date
⢠amounts expected to be payable by the Company under residual value guarantees
⢠the exercise price of a purchase option if the Company is reasonably certain to exercise that option, and
⢠payments of penalties for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the Company exercising that option.
Lease payments to be made under reasonably certain extension options are also included in the measurement of the liability. The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease. If that rate cannot be readily determined, which is generally the case for leases in the Company, the lessee''s incremental borrowing rate is used, being the rate that the individual lessee would have to pay to borrow the funds necessary to obtain an asset of similar value to the right-of-use asset in a similar economic environment with similar terms, security and conditions.
To determine the incremental borrowing rate, the Company:
⢠where possible, uses recent third-party financing received by the individual lessee as a starting point, adjusted to reflect changes in financing conditions since third party financing was received
⢠uses a build-up approach that starts with a risk-free interest rate adjusted for credit risk for leases held by Tarsons Products Limited, which does not have recent third party financing
⢠makes adjustments specific to the lease, e.g. term, country, currency and security.
If a readily observable amortising loan rate is available to the individual lessee (through recent financing or market data) which has a similar payment profile to the lease, then the Company entities use that rate as a starting point to determine the incremental borrowing rate.
The Company is exposed to potential future increases in variable lease payments based on an index or rate, which are not included in the lease liability until they take effect. When adjustments to lease payments based on an index or rate take effect, the lease liability is reassessed and adjusted against the right-of-use asset.
Lease payments are allocated between principal and finance cost. The finance cost is charged to profit or loss over the lease period so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability for each period.
Variable lease payments that depend on sales are recognized in profit or loss in the period in which the condition that triggers those payments occurs. Right-of-use assets are measured at cost comprising the following:
⢠the amount of the initial measurement of lease liability
⢠any lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received
⢠any initial direct costs
⢠restoration costs.
Right-of-use assets are generally depreciated over the shorter of the asset''s useful life and the lease term on a straight-line basis. If the Company is reasonably certain to exercise a purchase option, the right-of-use asset is depreciated over the underlying asset''s useful life.
Payments associated with short-term leases of equipment and all leases of low-value assets are recognized on a straightline basis as an expense in profit or loss. Short-term leases are leases with a lease term of 12 months or less. Low-value assets comprise IT equipment and small items of office furniture.
Lease income from operating leases where the Company is a lessor is recognized in income on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Initial direct costs incurred in obtaining an operating lease are added to the carrying amount of the underlying asset and recognized as expense over the lease term on the same basis as lease income. The respective leased assets are included in the balance sheet based on their nature.
(i) Classification
The Company classifies its financial assets in the following measurement categories:
⢠those to be measured subsequently at fair value (either through other comprehensive income, or through profit or loss), and
⢠those to be measured at amortized cost.
The classification depends on the entity''s business model for managing the financial assets and the contractual terms of the cash flows.
For assets measured at fair value, gains and losses will either be recorded in profit or loss or other comprehensive income. For investments in equity instruments that are not held for trading, this will depend on whether the Company has made an irrevocable election at the time of initial recognition to account for the equity investment at FVOCI.
The Company reclassifies debt investments when and only when its business model for managing those assets changes.
(ii) Recognition
Regular way purchases and sales of financial assets are recognized on trade-date, being the date on which the Company commits to purchase or sale the financial asset.
(iii) Measurement
At initial recognition, the Company measures a financial asset at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial asset not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset. Transaction costs of financial assets carried at fair value through profit or loss are expensed in profit or loss.
Subsequent measurement of debt instruments depends on the Company''s business model for managing the asset and the cash flow characteristics of the asset. There are three measurement categories into which the Company classifies its debt instruments:
⢠Amortized cost: Assets that are held for collection of contractual cash flows where those cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest are measured at amortized cost. A gain or loss on a debt investment that is subsequently measured at amortized cost is recognized in profit or loss when the asset is derecognized or impaired. Interest income from these financial assets is included in finance income using the effective interest rate method.
⢠Fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI): Assets that are held for collection of contractual cash flows and for selling the financial assets, where the assets'' cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest, are measured at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI). Movements in the carrying amount are taken through OCI, except for the recognition of impairment gains or losses, interest 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 or loss. Interest income from these financial assets is included in other income using the effective interest rate method.
⢠Fair value through profit or loss: Assets that do not meet the criteria for amortized cost or FVOCI are measured at fair value through profit or loss. A gain or loss on a debt investment that is subsequently measured at fair value through profit or loss is recognized in profit or loss and presented net in the statement of profit and loss in the period in which it arises. Interest income from these financial assets is included in other income.
Equity Instruments
The Company subsequently measures all equity investments at fair value. Where the Company''s management has elected to present fair value gains and losses on equity investments in other comprehensive income, there is no subsequent reclassification of fair value gains and losses to profit or loss following the derecognition of the investment. Dividends from such investments are recognized in profit or loss as other income when the Company''s right to receive payments is established.
Changes in the fair value of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are recognized in other income in the statement of profit and loss. Impairment losses (and reversal of impairment losses) on equity investments measured at FVOCI are not reported separately from other changes in fair value.
(iv) Derecognition
A financial asset is derecognized only when
⢠The Company has transferred the rights to receive cash flows from the financial asset or
⢠retains the contractual rights to receive the cash flows of the financial asset, but assumes a contractual obligation to pay the cash flows to one or more recipients.
Where the entity has transferred an asset, the Company evaluates whether it has transferred substantially all risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset. In such cases, the financial asset is derecognized. Where the entity has not transferred substantially all risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset, the financial asset is not derecognized.
Where the entity has neither transferred a financial asset nor retains substantially all risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset, the financial asset is derecognized if the Company has not retained control of the financial asset. Where the Company retains control of the financial asset, the asset is continued to be recognized to the extent of continuing involvement in the financial asset.
(v) Dividend
Dividends are received from financial assets at fair value through profit or loss and at FVOCI. Dividends are recognized as other income in profit or loss when the right to receive payment is established. This applies even if they are paid out of pre-acquisition profits, unless the dividend clearly represents a recovery of part of the cost of the investment.
(vi) Interest Income
Interest income from financial assets at fair value through profit or loss is disclosed as interest income within other income. Interest income on financial assets at amortized cost and financial assets at FVOCI is calculated using the effective interest method is recognized in the statement of profit and loss as part of other income.
Interest income is calculated by applying the effective interest rate to the gross carrying amount of a financial asset except for financial assets that subsequently become credit-impaired. For credit-impaired financial assets the effective interest rate is applied to the net carrying amount of the financial asset (after deduction of the loss allowance).
(vii) Offsetting
Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the Standalone balance sheet where there is a legally enforceable right to offset the recognized amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. The legally enforceable right must not be contingent on future events and must be enforceable in the normal course of business and in the event of default, insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company or the counterparty.
(a) Impairment of financial assets
The Company recognizes loss allowances for expected credit losses on:
- financial assets measured at amortized cost; and
- financial assets measured at FVOCI- debt investments.
At each reporting date, the Company assesses whether financial assets carried at amortized cost and debt securities at FVOCI are credit- impaired. A financial asset is ''credit- impaired'' when one or more events that have a detrimental impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset have occurred.
The Company recognizes loss allowances using the expected credit loss (ECL) model for the financial assets which are measured at amortized cost. The Company does not have any financial assets which are carried at at fair value through profit or loss or at FVOCI. Loss allowance for trade receivables with no significant financing component is measured at an amount equal to lifetime ECL. For all other financial assets (i.e. cash and bank balances and other financial assets) , expected credit losses are measured at an amount equal to the 12 month ECL, unless there has been a significant increase in credit risk from initial recognition in which case those are measured at lifetime ECL. The amount of expected credit losses (or reversal) that is required to adjust the loss allowance at the reporting date to the amount that is required to be recognized, is recognized as an impairment gain or loss in the statement of profit and loss.
(b) Impairment of non-financial assets
Assets are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which the asset''s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset''s fair value less costs of disposal and value in use. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are Companyed at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash inflows which are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or Company''s of assets (cash-generating units). Non financial assets other than goodwill that suffered an impairment are reviewed for possible reversal of the impairment at the end of each reporting period.
2.9 Measurement of fair values
A number of the Company''s accounting policies and disclosures require measurement of fair values, for both financial and non-financial assets and liabilities.
Fair values are categorised into different levels in a fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used in the valuation techniques as follows.
- Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
- Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices included in 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: inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).
When measuring the fair value of an asset or a liability, the Company uses observable market data as far as possible. If the inputs used to measure the fair value of an asset or a liability fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy, then the fair value measurement is categorised in its entirety in the same level of the fair value hierarchy as the lowest level input that is significant to the entire measurement.
Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value. The cost of inventories includes expenditure incurred in acquiring the inventories, production or conversion costs and other costs incurred in bringing them to their present location and condition. Cost is determined using the First-in-First out (FIFO) method in respect of Raw Materials. The cost comprises cost of purchase, cost of conversion and other costs including appropriate production overheads in the case of finished goods and work in progress, incurred in bringing such inventories to their present location and condition.
Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs of completion and selling expenses.
The net realisable value of work-in-progress is determined with reference to the selling prices of related finished products.
Raw materials, components and other supplies held for use in the production of finished products are not written down below cost except in cases where material prices have declined and it is estimated that the cost of the finished products will exceed their net realisable value.
The comparison of cost and net realisable value is made on an item-by-item basis.
2.11 Foreign Currency Translation Transactions and balances
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at year end exchange rates are generally recognized in profit or loss.
Foreign exchange differences arising on foreign currency borrowings are presented in the Standalone statement of profit and loss. All other foreign exchange gains and losses are presented in the Standalone statement of profit and loss on a net basis within other income /(expense).
Revenue from sale of goods is recognized at the point in time when control of the goods is transferred to the customer. The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of goods measured at the price specified in the contract, net of returns and allowances, trade discounts and volume rebates. Such provisions give rise to variable consideration, and are estimated at contract inception and updated thereafter. Revenue from value added services, namely freight and shipping insurance, is recognized as and when services are rendered, as per the terms agreed with the customers.
a. A refund liability is recognized for expected volume discounts payable for sales made till the end of the reporting period.
b. If a customer pays consideration before the Company transfers goods or services to the customer, an advance from customers (contract liability) is recognized when the payment is made or the payment is due (whichever is earlier). Contract liabilities are recognized as revenue when the Company performs under the contract.
c. The Company does not have any significant financing element included in the sales made.
(i) Short-term employee benefits
Liabilities for wages and salaries, including non-monetary benefits that are expected to be settled wholly within 12 months after the end of the period in which the employees render the related service are recognized in respect of employees'' services up to the end of the reporting period and are measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled. The liabilities are presented as current employee benefit obligations in the balance sheet.
(ii) Defined contribution plans
A defined contribution plan is a post-employment benefit plan under which an entity pays fixed contributions into a separate entity and will have no legal or constructive obligation to pay further amounts. The Company makes specified monthly contributions towards Government administered provident fund scheme. Obligations for contributions to defined contribution plans are recognized as an employee benefit expense in profit or loss in the periods during which the related services are rendered by employees.
Prepaid contributions are recognized as an asset to the extent that a cash refund or a reduction in future payments is available.
(iii) Defined benefit plans
The Company provides for gratuity, a defined benefit retirement plan ("the Gratuity Planâ) covering eligible employees. The Gratuity Plan provides a lump-sum payment to vested employees at retirement, death, incapacitation or termination of employment, of an amount based on the respective employee''s salary and the tenure of employment with the Company.
The liability or asset recognized in the Standalone balance sheet in respect of gratuity plan is the present value of the defined benefit obligation at the end of the reporting period less the fair value of plan assets. The defined benefit obligation is calculated annually by actuaries using the projected unit credit method.
The present value of the defined benefit obligation denominated in '' is determined by discounting the estimated future cash outflows by reference to market yields at the end of the reporting period on government bonds that have terms approximating to the terms of the related obligation.
The net interest cost is calculated by applying the discount rate to the net balance of the defined benefit obligation and the fair value of plan assets. This cost is included in employee benefit expense in the Standalone statement of profit and loss.
Remeasurement gains and losses arising from experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions are recognized in the period in which they occur, directly in other comprehensive income. They are included in retained earnings in the statement of changes in equity and in the balance sheet.
Changes in the present value of the defined benefit obligation resulting from plan amendments or curtailments are recognized immediately in Standalone statement of profit and loss as past service cost.
(iv) Compensated absences
The Company also has liabilities for earned leave that are not expected to be settled wholly within 12 months after the end of the period in which the employees render the related service. These obligations are therefore measured as the present value of expected future payments to be made in respect of services provided by employees up to the end of the reporting period using the projected unit credit method. The benefits are discounted using the appropriate market yields at the end of the reporting period that have terms approximating to the terms of the related obligation. Remeasurements as a result of experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions are recognized in profit or loss. The obligations are presented as current liabilities in the Standalone balance sheet if the entity does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least twelve months after the reporting period, regardless of when the actual settlement is expected to occur.
The income tax expense or credit for the period is the tax payable on the current period''s taxable income based on the applicable income tax rate adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to temporary differences and to unused tax losses.
(i) Current Tax
The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the end of the reporting period. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulation is subject to interpretation and considers whether it is probable that a taxation authority will accept an uncertain tax treatment. The Company measures its tax balances either based on the most likely amount or the expected value, depending on which method provides a better prediction of the resolution of the uncertainty.
(ii) Deferred Tax
Deferred income tax is provided in full, using the liability method, on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the Standalone financial statements. However, deferred tax liabilities are not recognized if they arise from the initial recognition of goodwill. Deferred income tax is also not accounted for if it arises from initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction other than a business combination that at the time of the transaction affects neither accounting profit nor taxable profit (tax loss). Deferred income tax is determined using tax rates (and laws) that have been enacted or substantially enacted by the end of the reporting period and are expected to apply when the related deferred income tax asset is realized or the deferred income tax liability is settled.
Deferred tax assets are recognized for all deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses only if it is probable that future taxable amounts will be available to utilize those temporary differences and losses.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset where there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets and liabilities and where the deferred tax balances relate to the same taxation authority. Current tax assets and tax liabilities are offset where the entity has a legally enforceable right to offset and intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
Current and deferred tax is recognized in profit or loss, except to the extent that it relates to items recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. In this case, the tax is also recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, respectively.
2.15 Provisions and Contingencies (i) Provisions
Provisions are recognized when the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events, it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation and the amount can be reliably estimated. Provisions are not recognized for future operating losses.
Where there are a number of similar obligations, the likelihood that an outflow will be required in settlement is determined by considering the class of obligations as a whole. A provision is recognized even if the likelihood of an outflow with respect to any one item included in the same class of obligations may be small.
Provisions are measured at the present value of management''s best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period. The discount rate used to determine the present value is a pretax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability. The increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognized as interest expense.
(ii) Contingencies
A contingent liability is a possible obligation that arises from past events whose existence will be confirmed by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events beyond the control of the Company or a present obligation that is not recognized because it is not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation. A contingent liability also arises in extremely rare cases where there is a liability that cannot be recognized because it cannot be measured reliably.
Contingent assets are not recognized but disclosed in the Standalone financial statements when an inflow of economic benefit is probable.
Trade receivables are amounts due from customers for goods sold or services performed in the ordinary course of business. Trade receivables are recognized initially at the amount of consideration that is unconditional unless they contain significant financing components, when they are recognized at fair value. The Company holds the trade receivables with the objective of collecting the contractual cash flows and therefore measures them subsequently at amortized cost using the effective interest method, less loss allowance.
These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Company prior to the end of financial year which are unpaid. The amounts are unsecured and are generally paid within 30 to 90 days of recognition. Trade and other payables are presented as current liabilities unless payment is not due within 12 months after the reporting period. They are recognized initially at their fair value and subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method.
2.18 Borrowings and other financial liabilities
Borrowings are initially recognized at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently measured at amortized cost. Any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption amount is recognized in profit or loss over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method. Fees paid on the establishment of loan facilities are recognized as transaction costs of the loan to the extent that it is probable that some or all of the facility will be drawn down. In this case, the fee is deferred until the draw down occurs. To the extent there is no evidence that it is probable that some or all of the facility will be drawn down, the fee is capitalized as a prepayment for liquidity services and amortized over the period of the facility to which it relates.
Borrowings are removed from the Standalone balance sheet when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged, cancelled or expired. The difference between the carrying amount of a financial liability that has been extinguished or transferred to another party and the consideration paid, including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed, is recognized in profit or loss.
Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the Company has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period.
2.19 Cash and Cash Equivalents
For the purpose of presentation in the Standalone statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, deposits held at call with financial institutions, other short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.
(i) Basic earnings per share
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing:
⢠the profit attributable to owners of the Company
⢠by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the financial year, adjusted for bonus element in equity shares issued during the year and excluding treasury share
(ii) Diluted earnings per share
Diluted earnings per share adjusts the figures used in the determination of basic earnings per share to take into account:
⢠the after income tax effect of interest and other financing costs associated with dilutive potential equity shares, and
⢠the weighted average number of additional equity shares that would have been outstanding assuming the conversion of all dilutive potential equity shares
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker.
The Board of Directors of the Tarsons Products Limited has been identified as the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) as defined by Ind AS 108, Operating Segments. All operating segments'' operating results are reviewed regularly by the Company''s Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segments and assess their performance. Refer note 37 for details on segment information presented.
