A. Significant accounting policies
A summary of the significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of the financial statements are as given below. These accounting policies have been applied consistently to all periods presented in the financial statements. The Company has elected to utilize the option under Ind AS 101 by not applying provision of Ind AS 16, Ind AS 38 &Ind AS 40 retrospectively and continue to use the Indian GAAP carrying amount as deemed cost under Ind AS at the date of transition to Ind AS. Therefore, the carrying amount of property, plant and equipment, Investment Property and Intangible Assets as at 1 April 2016, the Companyâs date of transition to Ind AS, according to the Indian GAAP were maintained in transition to Ind AS.
1. Property, plant and equipment
1.1 Initial recognition and measurement
An item of PPE is recognized as an asset if and only if it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the company and the cost of item can be measured reliably.
Items of property, plant and equipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by the management.
When parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, they are recognized separately.
1.2 Subsequent costs
Subsequent expenditure is recognized as an increase in the carrying amount of the asset when it is probable that the future economic benefits deriving from the cost incurred will flow to the enterprise and the cost of the item can be measured reliably.
1.3 Depreciation
Assets are depreciated using straight line method over the estimated useful life of the asset as specified in Part âCâ of Schedule II of Companies Act, 2013 after retaining residual life of 5% of original cost. Assets residual values and useful lives are reviewed at each financial year end considering the physical condition of the assets.
The useful lives of the property, plant and equipment are as follows:
- Furniture & Fixtures - 10 years
- Office equipment - 5 years
- Buildings - 60 years
- Vehicles - 8 years
- Computers - 3 years
- Air conditioners - 5 years
1.4 De-recognition
Property, plant and equipment are derecognized when no future economic benefits are expected from their use or upon their disposal. Gains and losses on disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment are determined by comparing the proceeds from disposal with the carrying amount of property, plant and equipment, and are recognized in the statement of profit and loss.
2. Investment Property
2.1 Initial Recognition
Investment properties comprise portions of Leasehold land and office building that is held for long term rental yields and/or for capital appreciation. Investment Property is recognized only when it is probable that the future economic benefits that are associated with the investment property will flow to the company as the cost of the investment property can be measured reliably.
Investment properties are initially recognised at cost. Subsequently investment property comprising of building is carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses.
2.2 Depreciation
The depreciation on building is calculated using the straight line method over the estimated useful life of buildingof 60 years as specified in Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013. The residual values, useful lives and depreciation method of investment properties are reviewed, and adjusted on prospective basis as appropriate, at each financial year end. The effects of any revision are included in the statement of profit and loss when the changes arise.
2.3 De-recognition
Investment properties are de-recognised when either they have been disposed off or when the investment property is permanently withdrawn from use and no future economic benefits is expected from its disposal. The difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset is recognized in the statement of profit and loss in the period of de-recognition.
3. Intangible assets
3.1 Initial Recognition & measurement
Identifiable intangible assets are recognized
- When company controls the asset
- It is probable that future economic benefits will flow to the company
- The cost of the asset can be reliably measured
Intangible assets comprise Computer Software that is purchased for business operations of the company. Intangible assets that are acquired by the Company, which have finite useful lives, are recognised at cost. Subsequent measurement is done at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses. Cost includes any directly attributable incidental expenses necessary to make assets ready for its intended use.
3.2 Subsequent Cost
Subsequent expenditure is recognised as an increase in the carrying amount of the asset when it is probable that future economic benefits deriving from the cost incurred will flow to the enterprise and the cost of the item can be measurably reliably.
3.3Amortization
Intangible assets are amortized on straight line method basis as per the methodology provided and useful life of the asset mentioned in Schedule II of the Companies Act, 2013. Useful life of computer software is 6 Years. Amortization of intangible assets is included in the head depreciation & amortization expenses in the statement of profit & loss.
3.4De-recognition
An intangible asset is derecognized when no future economic benefits are expected from their use or upon their disposal. Gains and losses on disposal of an item of intangible assets are determined by comparing the proceeds from disposal with the carrying amount of intangible assets and are recognized in the statement of profit and loss.
4. Inventory
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost includes cost of purchase, cost of conversion and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. As companyâs inventory includes paid documents, net realizable value is calculated using exchange rate prevailing at the end of accounting year.
5. Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents in the balance sheet comprise cash on hand, cash at banks and short-term deposits with an original maturity of three months or less, which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.
6. Foreign currency transactions and translation
Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded at the functional currency spot rates at the date the transaction first qualifies for recognition.Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the functional currency spot rates of exchange at the reporting date. Exchange differences arising on settlement or translation of monetary items are recognized inStatement ofprofit and loss in the year in which it arises.
7. Borrowing costs
Borrowing costs specifically relating to the acquisition of qualifying assets that necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use are capitalized (net of income on temporarily deployment of funds) as part of the cost of such assets. Borrowing cost consists of interest and other cost that the company incurs in connection with the borrowing of funds.
All other borrowing costs are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss as expense in the period in which they are incurred.
8. Income Taxes
Income tax expense comprises current and deferred tax. Current tax expense is recognized in Statement of Profit and Loss A/c except to the extent that it relates to items recognized directly in other comprehensive income or equity, in which it is recognized in OCI or equity.
Current tax is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted and as applicable at the reporting date, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years. Current income taxes are recognized under âIncome tax payableâ net of payments on account, or under âTax receivablesâ where there is a debit balance.
Deferred tax is recognized using the balance sheet method, providing for temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates that are expected to be applied to temporary differences when they reverse, based on the laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax liabilities and assets, and they relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority on the same taxable entity, or on different tax entities, but they intend to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis or their tax assets and liabilities will be realized simultaneously.
Deferred tax is recognized in Statement of Profit and Loss A/c except to the extent that it relates to items recognized directly in OCI or equity, in which case it is recognized in OCI or equity.
A deferred tax asset is recognized to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the temporary difference can be utilized. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realized. Minimum Alternate Tax credit is recognized as deferred tax asset only when and to the extent there is convincing evidence that the Company will pay normal income tax during the specified period. Such asset is reviewed at each Balance Sheet date and the carrying amount of the MAT credit asset is written down to the extent there is no longer a convincing evidence to the effect that the Company will pay normal income tax during the specified period.
Additional income taxes that arise from the distribution of dividends are recognized at the same time that the liability to pay the related dividend is recognized.
9. Share Based Payments
Share based payments Equity-settled share based payments to employees and others providing similar services are measured at the fair value of the equity instruments at the grant date.
The fair value determined at the grant date of the equity-settled share based payments is expensed on a straight line basis over the vesting period, based on the Companyâs estimate of equity instruments that will eventually vest, with a corresponding increase in equity. At the end of each reporting period, the Company revises its estimate of the number of equity instruments expected to vest. The impact of the revision of the original estimates, if any, is recognised in Statement of Profit and Loss such that the cumulative expenses reflects the revised estimate, with a corresponding adjustment to the Share Based Payments Reserve.
10. Provisions Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets
A provision is recognized if, as a result of a past event, the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation that can be estimated reliably, and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation. The amount recognized as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at reporting date, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. When some or all of the economic benefits required to settle a provision are expected to be recovered from a third party, the receivable is recognized as an asset if it is virtually certain that reimbursement will be received and the amount of the receivable can be measured reliably. The expense relating to a provision is presented in the statement of profit and loss net of any reimbursement.
Contingent liabilities are disclosed when there is a possible obligation arising from past events, the existence of which will be confirmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of the company or a present obligation that arises from past events where it is either not probable that outflow of resources will be required to settle or a reliable estimate of the amount cannot be made. Information on contingent liability is disclosed in the notes to the financial statements. Contingent liabilities are disclosed on the basis of judgment of management/ independent experts. These are reviewed at each balance sheet date and are adjusted to reflect the current management estimate.
ContingentAssets are possible assets that arise from past events and whose existence will be continued only by occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of the company. Contingent assets are disclosed in the financial statements when inflow of economic benefits is probable on the basis of judgement of management. These are assessedcontinually to ensure that developments are appropriately reflected in financial statements.
11. Revenue
Revenue is recognized to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the company, the company retains neither continuing managerial involvement to the degree usually associated with ownership nor effective control over the goods sold, and the revenue can be reliably measured, regardless of when the payment is being made. Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable and taking into account contractually defined terms of payment.
Companyâs revenues from sale of traded goods is recognized when all the significant risk & rewards of ownership of the goods have been passed to the buyer, usually on delivery. Revenue from services is recognized on rendering the services.
Revenue from other income comprises interest from banks, dividend from long term investments, profit on sale of Property, Plant and equipment, other miscellaneous income, etc.Interest income is recognized, when no significant uncertainty as to measurability or collectability exists, on a time proportion basis taking into account the amount outstanding and the applicable interest rate, using the effective interest rate method (EIR).
Revenue from rentals and operating leases is recognized on an accrual basis in accordance with the substance of the relevant agreement.
Dividend income is recognized in profit or loss on the date whenthe Companyâs right to receive payment is established.
12. Employee benefits
12.1. Short term Employee Benefits
Short-term employee benefit obligations are measured on an undiscounted basis and are booked as an expense as the related service is provided.
A liability is recognized for the amount expected to be paid under performance related pay if the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation to pay this amount as a result of past service provided by the employee and the obligation can be estimated reliably.
12.2. Post-Employment benefits
Employee benefit that are payable after the completion of employment are Post-Employment Benefit (other than termination benefit). These are of two types:
12.2.1. Defined contribution plans
Defined contribution plans are those plans in which an entity pays fixed contribution into separate entities and will have no legal or constructive obligation to pay further amounts. Provident Fund and Family Pension Funds are Defined Contribution Plans in which company pays a fixed contribution and will have no further obligation.
12.2.2. Defined benefit plans
A defined benefit plan is a post-employment benefit plan other than a defined contribution plan.
Company pays Gratuity as per provisions of the Gratuity Act, 1972. The Companyâs net obligation in respect of defined benefit plans is calculated separately for each plan by estimating the amount of future benefit that employees have earned in return for their service in the current and prior periods; that benefit is discounted to determine its present value. Any unrecognized past service costs and the fair value of any plan assets are deducted. The discount rate is based on the prevailing market yields of Indian government securities as at the reporting date that have maturity dates approximating the terms of the Companyâs obligations and that are denominated in the same currency in which the benefits are expected to be paid.
The calculation is performed annually by a qualified actuary using the projected unit credit method. When the calculation results in a liability to the company, the present value of liability is recognized as provision for employee benefit. Any actuarial gains or losses in respect of gratuity are recognized in OCI in the period in which they arise.
12.3. Other long-term employee benefits
Benefits under the Companyâs leave encashment scheme constitute other long-term employee benefits. The Companyâs net obligation in respect of leave encashment is the amount of future benefit that employees have earned in return for their service in the current and prior periods; that benefit is discounted to determine its present value, and the fair value of any related assets is deducted. The discount rate is based on the prevailing market yields of Indian government securities as at the reporting date that have maturity dates approximating the terms of the Companyâs obligations. The calculation is performed using the projected unit credit method. Any actuarial gains or losses are recognized in profit or loss in the period in which they arise.
13. Impairment of non -financial assets
As at each Balance Sheet, the company assesses whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired and also whether there is an indication of reversal of impairment loss recognised in the previous periods. If an indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required,if any, the company determines the recoverable amount and impairment loss is recognised when the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount.
14. Dividends:
Dividends and interim dividends payable to a Companyâs shareholders are recognized as changes in equity in the period in which they are approved by the shareholdersâ meeting and the Board of Directors respectively.
15. Material prior period errors:
Material prior period errors are corrected retrospectively by restating the comparative amounts for the prior periods presented in which the error occurred. If the error occurred before the earliest period presented, the opening balances of assets, liabilities and equity for the earliest period presented, are restated.
16. Earnings per share
Basic earnings per equity share is computed by dividing the net profit or loss attributable to equity shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the financial year.
Diluted earnings per equity share is computed by dividing the net profit or loss attributable to equity shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of equity shares considered for deriving basic earnings per equity share and also the weighted average number of equity shares that could have been issued upon conversion of all dilutive potential equity shares.
17. Cash Flow Statement
Cash flow statement is prepared in accordance with the indirect method prescribed in Ind AS 7 âStatement of Cash Flowsâ.
18. Impairment of Non-Financial Assets
The carrying amounts of the Companyâs non-financial assets are reviewed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment considering the provisions of Ind AS 36 âImpairment of Assetsâ. If any such indication exists, then the assetâs recoverable amount (higher of its fair value less costs to disposal or its value in use) is estimated.
An impairment loss is recognized if the carrying amount of an asset or its Cash Generating Unit (CGU) exceeds its estimated recoverable amount. Impairment losses are recognized in profit or loss.
Impairment losses recognized in prior periods are assessed at each reporting date for any indications that the loss has decreased or no longer exists. An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount which is only to the extent that the assetâs carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortization, if no impairment loss had been recognized.
19. Dividends
Dividends and interim dividends payable to a Companyâs shareholders are recognized as changes in equity in the period in which they are approved by the shareholdersâ meeting and the Board of Directors respectively.
20. Financial Instruments
20.1 Financial Assets Initial Recognition and measurement
All financial assets are recognized initially at fair value plus, in the case of financial assets not recorded at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs that are attributable to the acquisition or issue of the financial asset.
Subsequent measurement
Equity Investments
All equity investments in entities other than subsidiaries and joint ventures are measured at fair value. Equity instruments which are held for trading are classified as at FAIR VALUE THROUGH PROFIT AND LOSS. For all other equity instruments, the Company decides to classify the same either as at fair value through other comprehensive income or fair value through profit and loss. The Company makes such election on an instrument by instrument basis. The classification is made on initial recognition and is irrevocable.
If the Company decides to classify an equity instrument as at fair value through other comprehensive income, then all fair value changes on the instrument, excluding dividends, are recognized in the OCI. There is no recycling of the amounts from OCI to P&L, even on sale of investment. However, the Company may transfer the cumulative gain or loss within equity.
Equity investments in subsidiaries and joint ventures are measured at cost, as cost represents the appropriate estimate of fair value in case of these investments.
Investment in Subsidiary
Investment in Subsidiary is stated at cost.
As on the date of transition, the company measures the investment in subsidiaries at previous GAAP carrying amount being deemed cost in accordance with para D15 of Ind As 101- First Time adoption of Ind AS.
De-recognition of financial assets
A financial asset (or where applicable, a part of a financial asset or a part of a company of similar financial assets) is primarily derecognized (i.e. removed from the companyâs balance sheet) when:
- The rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired, or
- The company has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from the asset or has assumed an obligation to pay the received cash flows in full without material delay to a third party under a âpass-throughâ arrangement; and either
(a) The company has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset
(b) The company has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, but has transferred control of the asset.
Impairment of financial assets
In accordance with Ind AS 109, the Company applies expected credit loss (ECL) model for measurement and recognition of impairment loss on financial assets.
For recognition of impairment loss on financial assets and risk exposure, the Company determines that whether there has been a significant increase in the credit risk since initial recognition. If credit risk has not increased significantly, 12-month ECL is used to provide for impairment loss. However, if credit risk has increased significantly, lifetime ECL is used. If, in a subsequent period, credit quality of the instrument improves such that there is no longer a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition, then the entity reverts to recognizing impairment loss allowance based on 12-month ECL.
20.2 Financial Liabilities Initial recognition and measurement
Financial liabilities are classified, at initial recognition, as financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, borrowings, payables, or as derivatives designated as hedging instruments in an effective hedge, as appropriate. All financial liabilities are recognized initially at fair value and, in the case of borrowings and payables, net of directly attributable transaction costs. The Companyâs financial liabilities include trade and other payables, borrowings including bank overdrafts, financial guarantee contracts and derivative financial instruments.
Subsequent measurement
Subsequent measurement of financial liabilities depends on their classification, as described below:
Financial liabilities at amortised cost
After initial measurement, such financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the EIR method. Amortized cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of the EIR. The EIR amortization is included in finance costs in the profit or loss. This category generally applies to trade payables and other contractual liabilities.
Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss
Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss include financial liabilities held for trading and financial liabilities designated upon initial recognition as at fair value through profit or loss. Financial liabilities are classified as held for trading if they are incurred for the purpose of repurchasing in the near term.The Company has not designated any financial liability as at fair value through profit and loss
De-recognition of financial liability
A financial liability is derecognized when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires. When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as the de-recognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability. The difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognized in the statement of profit or loss.
21. Fair Value measurement
In determining the fair value of its financial instruments, the Entity uses a variety of methods and assumptions that are based on market conditions and risks existing at each reporting date. The methods used to determine fair value include discounted cash flow analysis, available quoted market prices and dealer quotes. All methods of assessing fair value result in general approximation of value, and such value may never actually be realized.
Refer to Note 49 (d) in for the disclosure on carrying value and fair value of financial assets and liabilities. For financial assets and liabilities maturing within one year from the Balance Sheet date and which are not carried at fair value, the carrying amounts approximate fair value due to the short maturity of these instruments.

All other borrowing costs are expensed in the period they occur.
13. Foreign Currency Transactions:
The purchase and sale of foreign currencies and paid documents are recorded at the exchange rate prevailing at the time of transaction. Foreign currencies and Encashed Travelers Cheques (ETCs) at the yearend are treated as closing stock, and in accordance with Accounting Standard-11 (Accounting for the effects of changes in foreign exchange rates), issued by The Institute Of Chartered Accountants Of India are valued at the closing market rate, which is the general buying rate at the yearend in case cost is higher than the value so arrived at.
Current Liabilities in foreign currencies at close of year are converted at the closing settlement rate, on the date of the Balance Sheet. Receivables/payables in foreign currencies are converted at the closing market rate at the year end. Exchange differences, if any, arising from rate fluctuation are dealt with in the Statement of Profit and Loss except in cases where these relate to the acquisition of fixed assets, in which case these are adjusted to the carrying cost of such assets.
