Accounting Policies of UCAL Ltd. Company

Mar 31, 2025

3. Material Accounting Policies:

The accounting policies mentioned herein are relating to
the standalone financial statements of the Company

a) Revenue Recognition:

A Revenue from contract with customer is
accounted only when the parties to the contract
has approved the contract and are committed to
perform their respective obligations, each party''s
rights regarding the goods or services to be
transferred can be identified, the payment terms
for the goods or services to be transferred can be
identified, the contract has a commercial substance
and it is probable that the Company will collect the
consideration to which it will be entitle in exchange
for the goods or services that will be transferred to
the customer.

Sale of Products:

Revenue is recognized when the control of goods is
transferred to a customer at an amount equal to the
transaction price.

Interest Income:

Interest income from debt instruments is
recognized using the effective interest rate method.
The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly
discounts estimated future cash receipts through
the expected life of the financial asset to the gross
carrying value of a financial asset. While calculating
the effective interest rate, the company estimates
the expected cash flows by considering all the
contractual terms of the financial instrument (for
example, prepayment, extension, call and similar
options), but does not consider the expected credit
losses.

Dividend Income:

Dividends are recognized in profit or loss only
when the shareholder''s right to receive payment
is established and the amount of dividend can be
reliably measured.

Rental Income:

Rental Income from operating leases is recognized
on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

b) Cost Recognition:

Costs and Expenses are recognized when incurred
and are classified according to their nature.

c) Current and Non-Current Classification:

The company presents assets and liabilities in the
balance sheet based on current / non-current
classification.

Cash or cash equivalent is treated as current,
unless restricted from being exchanged or used to
settle a liability for at least twelve months after the
reporting period. In respect of other assets, it is
treated as current when it is:

• expected to be realized or intended to be sold
or consumed in the normal operating cycle

• held primarily for the purpose of trading

• expected to be realized within twelve months
after the reporting period. All other assets are
classified as non-current.

A liability is treated as current when:

• It is expected to be settled in the normal
operating cycle

• It is held primarily for the purpose of trading

• It is due to be settled within twelve months
after the reporting period, or

• There is no unconditional right to defer the
settlement of the liability for at least twelve
months after the reporting period. Terms
of liability that could, at the option of the
counterparty, result in its settlement by the
issue of equity instruments do not affect its
classification.

All other liabilities are classified as non-current.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as
non-current assets and liabilities, as the case may
be.

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.

d) Property, Plant and Equipment:

All items of Property, Plant, and Equipment are
stated at cost of acquisition or construction and
any initially directly attributable cost of bringing
the asset to its working condition for its intended
use, less accumulated depreciation / amortization
and Impairment, if any. Cost includes purchase
price, taxes, and duties, labour cost and directly
attributable overheads incurred upto the date the
asset is ready for its intended use. However, cost
excludes duty or tax to the extent credit of the duty
or tax is availed of.

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 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.

Gains and losses on disposals are determined by
comparing proceeds with carrying amount. These
are included in profit or loss within other gains/
(losses).

e) Depreciation and Amortization:

I. Depreciation is provided for property plant and
equipment on straight line method so as to
expense the cost less residual value over their
estimated useful lives based on a technical
evaluation and in accordance with Schedule II
to the Companies Act, 2013.

III. The estimated useful lives and residual values are
reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with
the effect of any change in estimate accounted for
prospective basis.

IV. On tangible fixed assets added / disposed-off during
the year, depreciation is charged on pro-rata basis
from the date of addition / till the date of disposal.

V. Depreciation is not recorded on capital work-in¬
progress until construction and installation are
complete and the asset is ready for its intended use.

VI. Property, plant and equipment with finite life are
evaluated for recoverability whenever there is any
indication that their carrying amounts may not
be recoverable. If any such indication exists, the
recoverable amount (i.e. higher of the fair value less
cost to sell and the value-in-use) is determined on
an individual asset basis unless the asset does not
generate cash flows that are largely independent
of those from other assets. In such cases, the
recoverable amount is determined for the cash
generating unit (CGU) to which the asset belongs.
If the recoverable amount of an asset (or CGU) is
estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the
carrying amount of the asset (or CGU) is reduced
to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is
recognised in the statement of profit and loss.

f) Intangible Assets

Purchased Intangible Assets:

Intangible assets are recognized as an asset if they meet
the criteria for recognition under IndAS 38. Intangible
assets purchased are recorded at cost less amortization
and accumulated impairment, if any.

Intangible assets consist of rights under licensing
agreement and software licences which are amortised
over licence period which equates the economic useful
life on a straight-line basis over the period of its economic
useful life.

Intangible assets with finite life are evaluated for
recoverability whenever there is any indication that
their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. If any

such indication exists, the recoverable amount (i.e.
higher of the fair value less cost to sell and the value-
in-use) is determined on an individual asset basis unless
the asset does not generate cash flows that are largely
independent of those from other assets. In such cases,
the recoverable amount is determined for the cash
generating unit (CGU) to which the asset belongs.

If the recoverable amount of an asset (or CGU) is
estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the
carrying amount of the asset (or CGU) is reduced to its
recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised in
the statement of profit and loss.

Amortization is provided on a straight-line basis over
estimated useful lives of the intangible assets as per
details below:

The amortization period for intangible assets with
finite useful lives is reviewed at least at each year-end.
Changes in expected useful lives are treated as changes
in accounting estimates.

Internally generated intangible assets:

Research costs are charged to the Statement of
Profit and Loss in the year in which they are incurred.
Product development costs incurred on new products
are recognized as intangible assets, when feasibility
has been established, the company has committed
technical, financial, and other resources to complete the
development, and it is probable that asset will generate
probable future economic benefit.

g) Leases:

Effective April 1, 2019, the company has applied Ind AS
116 on Lease Accounting. Ind AS 116 replaces Ind AS 17.

The company has chosen the practical expedient provided
by the standard to apply Ind AS 116 only to contracts
that were previously identified as leases under Ind AS
17 and therefore has not reassessed whether a contract
is or contains a lease at the date of initial application.
Consequently, the application of the standard has no
transition impact.

The company, as a lessee, recognises, at inception of
a contract, a lease if the contract conveys the right to
control the use of an identified asset for a period of time
in exchange for consideration.

At the date of commencement of the lease, the company
recognizes a right-of-use ("ROU") asset representing its
right to use the underlying asset for the lease term and

a lease liability for all lease arrangements in which it is a
lessee except for leases with a term of 12 months or less
(short term leases) and leases for which the underlying
assets is of low value. For such short term and assets
of low value leases, the company recognizes the lease
payment as an expense on a straight line basis over the
term of the lease.

At commencement date, the ROU asset is measured at
cost. The cost of the ROU asset measured at inception
shall comprise of the amount of the initial measurement
of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments
made at or before the commencement date less any
lease incentives received, plus any initial direct costs
incurred. The ROU assets are subsequently measured
at cost less any accumulated depreciation, accumulated
impairment losses, if any.

The ROU assets are depreciated using the straight-line
method from the commencement date over the shorter
of lease term or useful life of ROU asset. The estimated
useful lives of ROU assets are determined on the same
basis as those of PPE. Right-of-use assets are tested for
impairment whenever there is any indication that their
carrying amounts may not be recoverable. Impairment
loss, if any, is recognized in the statement of profit and
loss.

At the commencement date, the company measures the
lease liability at the present value of the lease payments
that are not paid at that date. The lease payments are
discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease
or, if not readily determinable, using the company''s
incremental borrowing rate.

Lease liability and ROU assets are separately presented
in the Balance Sheet. Lease payments are classified as
financing cash flows while short-term lease payments,
payment for leases of low value assets are classified
within operating activities.

h) Impairment:

Assets are tested for impairment when 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 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 (cash-generating units).

Non-financial assets other than goodwill that suffered
impairment are reviewed for possible reversal of the
impairment at the end of each reporting period.

The Company reviews its carrying value of investments
in subsidiaries carried at cost (net of impairment, if any)
annually, or more frequently when there is indication for
impairment. If the recoverable amount is less than its
carrying amount, the impairment loss is accounted for in
the statement of profit and loss.

i) 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 company
operates (''the functional currency''). I.e. in Indian
rupee (INR) and all values are rounded off to nearest
lakhs except otherwise indicated.

II. Transactions and Balances

a) Transactions in foreign currencies are recorded at
the spot exchange rates prevailing on the date of
the transaction.

b) Foreign currency denominated monetary assets
and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate
prevailing on the balance sheet dates.

c) Non-monetary items denominated in foreign
currency are valued at the exchange rate prevailing
on the date of transaction if the item is valued at
historical cost and are not reinstated.

d) Non-monetary items that are measured at fair
value in foreign currency are translated using the
exchanges rates at the date when the fair value is
measured.

e) Exchange differences arising on settlement of
transactions and translation of monetary items are
recognized as income or expense in the statement
of profit and loss in the year in which they arise.

j) Inventories:

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net
realizable value. Cost of raw materials, components,
stores, spares, Work-in-Progress and Finished Goods are
ascertained on a weighted average basis.

The cost of Finished Goods and Work-in-Progress
comprises of direct materials, direct labour and an
appropriate proportion of variable and fixed overhead
expenditure, the latter being allocated on the basis of
normal operating capacity. Costs of purchased inventory
are determined after excluding rebates and discounts.

Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the
ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of
completion and the estimated costs necessary to make
the sale. Materials and supplies held for use in the
production of inventories are not written down if the
finished products in which they will be used are expected
to be sold at or above cost.

k) Employee Benefits:

I. Short Term Obligations:

Liabilities for wages, salaries, and bonuses, including
non-monetary benefits that are expected to be
settled wholly within 12 months after the end of
the year in which the employees render the related
service are measured at the amounts expected to
be paid when the liabilities are settled. A liability is
recognised for the amount expected to be paid when
there is a present legal or constructive obligation to
pay this amount as a result of past service provide by
the employee and the obligation can be estimated
reliably. The liabilities are presented under other
financial liabilities in the balance sheet.

II. Long term Post-employment obligation:

The company has the following post-employment
benefit obligations:

i) Defined benefit gratuity plans; and

ii) Defined contribution plans such as provident
fund

The liability or asset recognized in the balance sheet
in respect of defined benefit 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 net defined benefit obligation is
valued annually by an independent actuary using
the projected unit credit method.

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 under finance cost 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 arise, directly in other comprehensive income
and are adjusted against 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 profit
or loss as past service cost.

Provident Fund and Pension Plans:

The eligible employees of the Company are entitled to
receive benefits in respect of provident fund, a defined
contribution plan, in which both employees and the
Company make monthly contributions at a specified
percentage of the covered employees'' salary. The
contributions as specified under the law are made to
the Employee Provident Fund Organization (EPFO). The
Company is liable only for its fixed contributions which
are required to be made in accordance with the schemes
in force as notified by EPFO. All contributions made by
the Company are recognized as expenses for the relevant
period.

I. Other Long-Term Employee Benefits:

Liabilities for compensated absences are not expected
to be settled wholly within 12 months after the end of
the period in which the employees render the related
service. They are, therefore, measured at the present
value of the expected future payments that has accrued
to the employees in accordance with the company''s
policy for compensated absences.

The benefits are discounted using an appropriate
discount rate and are estimated using the projected
unit credit method by an independent actuary.
Remeasurement as a result of experience adjustments
and changes in actuarial assumptions are recognised in
other comprehensive income. The obligation is classified
as current and non-current based on the policy stated in
the notes.

The eligible employees of the company are entitled
to receive benefits in respect of superannuation, a
defined contribution plan, in which the company
makes monthly contributions at a specified percentage
of the covered employees'' salary. The employees are
eligible to receive the contribution made along with
accumulated return thereon. The company is liable only
for its fixed contributions which are required to be made
in accordance with the company''s policy. Being in the
nature of a defined contribution plan, the contributions
are accounted as an expense as and when they accrue.

l) Taxes on Income:

Tax expense comprises of current and deferred taxes.

The current tax for the period is the tax payable on the
current period''s taxable income computed in accordance
with the Income Tax Act, 1961 applying the enacted
income tax rate applicable. The current tax expense

includes income tax payments relating to prior periods,
if any.

Deferred income tax is recognized using the balance
sheet approach.Deferred income tax assets and liabilities
are recognised for deductible and taxable temporary
differences arising between the tax base of assets and
liabilities and their carrying amount, except when the
deferred income tax arises from the initial recognition of
an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business
combination and affects neither accounting nor taxable
profit or loss at the time of the transaction. Deferred tax
assets and liabilities are measured using substantively
enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income
in the years in which the temporary differences are
expected to be received or settled.

Deferred tax assets are recognized for carry forward of
unused tax losses and unused tax credits to the extent
that it is probable that future taxable profits will be
available to utilize those unused tax credits and losses.

Deferred tax assets include Minimum Alternate Tax
(MAT) paid in accordance with the tax laws in India,
to the extent it would be available for set off against
future current income tax liability. Accordingly, MAT is
recognised as deferred tax asset in the balance sheet
when the asset can be measured reliably and it is
probable that the future economic benefit associated
with the asset will be realised.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there
is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets
and liabilities and when the deferred tax balances relate
to the same tax jurisdiction. 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.

The carrying amounts of deferred tax assets are reviewed
at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the
extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient tax
profits arise for their utilization.

m) Government Grants:

Government Grants including non-monetary grants at
fair value, are recognized only when there is reasonable
assurance that the entity will comply with the conditions
attaching to them and the grants will be received. The

grants are recognized in profit or loss on a systematic
basis over the periods in which the entity recognizes as
expenses the related costs which the grants are intended
to compensate.

Government grants relating to assets are presented by
setting up the grant as deferred income and are credited
to profit or loss on systematic basis over the useful lives
of the related assets.

3. Material Accounting Policies:

The accounting policies mentioned herein are relating to the standalone financial statements of the Company

a) Revenue Recognition:

A Revenue from contract with customer is accounted only when the parties to the contract has approved the contract and are committed to perform their respective obligations, each party''s rights regarding the goods or services to be transferred can be identified, the payment terms for the goods or services to be transferred can be identified, the contract has a commercial substance and it is probable that the Company will collect the consideration to which it will be entitle in exchange for the goods or services that will be transferred to the customer.

Sale of Products:

Revenue is recognized when the control of goods is transferred to a customer at an amount equal to the transaction price.

Interest Income:

Interest income from debt instruments is recognized using the effective interest rate method. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset to the gross carrying value of a financial asset. While calculating the effective interest rate, the company estimates the expected cash flows by considering all the contractual terms of the financial instrument (for example, prepayment, extension, call and similar options), but does not consider the expected credit losses.

Dividend Income:

Dividends are recognized in profit or loss only when the shareholder''s right to receive payment is established and the amount of dividend can be reliably measured.

Rental Income:

Rental Income from operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

b) Cost Recognition:

Costs and Expenses are recognized when incurred and are classified according to their nature.

c) Current and Non-Current Classification:

The company presents assets and liabilities in the balance sheet based on current / non-current classification.

Cash or cash equivalent is treated as current, unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period. In respect of other assets, it is treated as current when it is:

• expected to be realized or intended to be sold or consumed in the normal operating cycle

• held primarily for the purpose of trading

• expected to be realized within twelve months after the reporting period. All other assets are classified as non-current.

A liability is treated as current when:

• It is expected to be settled in the normal operating cycle

• It is held primarily for the purpose of trading

• It is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period, or

• There is no unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period. Terms of liability that could, at the option of the counterparty, result in its settlement by the issue of equity instruments do not affect its classification.

All other liabilities are classified as non-current. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as non-current assets and liabilities, as the case may be.

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.

d) Property, Plant and Equipment:

All items of Property, Plant, and Equipment are stated at cost of acquisition or construction and any initially directly attributable cost of bringing the asset to its working condition for its intended use, less accumulated depreciation / amortization and Impairment, if any. Cost includes purchase price, taxes, and duties, labour cost and directly attributable overheads incurred upto the date the asset is ready for its intended use. However, cost excludes duty or tax to the extent credit of the duty or tax is availed of.

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 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.

Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with carrying amount. These are included in profit or loss within other gains/ (losses).

e) Depreciation and Amortization:

I. Depreciation is provided for property plant and equipment on straight line method so as to expense the cost less residual value over their estimated useful lives based on a technical evaluation and in accordance with Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013.

III. The estimated useful lives and residual values are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of any change in estimate accounted for prospective basis.

IV. On tangible fixed assets added / disposed-off during the year, depreciation is charged on pro-rata basis from the date of addition / till the date of disposal.

V. Depreciation is not recorded on capital work-inprogress until construction and installation are complete and the asset is ready for its intended use.

VI. Property, plant and equipment with finite life are evaluated for recoverability whenever there is any indication that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount (i.e. higher of the fair value less cost to sell and the value-in-use) is determined on an individual asset basis unless the asset does not generate cash flows that are largely independent of those from other assets. In such cases, the recoverable amount is determined for the cash generating unit (CGU) to which the asset belongs. If the recoverable amount of an asset (or CGU) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset (or CGU) is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised in the statement of profit and loss.

) Intangible Assets

Purchased Intangible Assets:

Intangible assets are recognized as an asset if they meet the criteria for recognition under IndAS 38. Intangible assets purchased are recorded at cost less amortization and accumulated impairment, if any.

Intangible assets consist of rights under licensing agreement and software licences which are amortised over licence period which equates the economic useful life on a straight-line basis over the period of its economic useful life.

Intangible assets with finite life are evaluated for recoverability whenever there is any indication that

their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount (i.e. higher of the fair value less cost to sell and the value-in-use) is determined on an individual asset basis unless the asset does not generate cash flows that are largely independent of those from other assets. In such cases, the recoverable amount is determined for the cash generating unit (CGU) to which the asset belongs.

If the recoverable amount of an asset (or CGU) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset (or CGU) is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised in the statement of profit and loss.

Amortization is provided on a straight-line basis over estimated useful lives of the intangible assets as per details below:

The amortization period for intangible assets with finite useful lives is reviewed at least at each year-end. Changes in expected useful lives are treated as changes in accounting estimates.

Internally generated intangible assets:

Research costs are charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss in the year in which they are incurred. Product development costs incurred on new products are recognized as intangible assets, when feasibility has been established, the company has committed technical, financial, and other resources to complete the development, and it is probable that asset will generate probable future economic benefit.

g) Leases:

Effective April 1, 2019, the company has applied Ind AS 116 on Lease Accounting. Ind AS 116 replaces Ind AS 17.

The company has chosen the practical expedient provided by the standard to apply Ind AS 116 only to contracts that were previously identified as leases under Ind AS 17 and therefore has not reassessed whether a contract is or contains a lease at the date of initial application. Consequently, the application of the standard has no transition impact.

The company, as a lessee, recognises, at inception of a contract, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration.

At the date of commencement of the lease, the company recognizes a right-of-use ("ROU") asset representing its

right to use the underlying asset for the lease term and a lease liability for all lease arrangements in which it is a lessee except for leases with a term of 12 months or less (short term leases) and leases for which the underlying assets is of low value. For such short term and assets of low value leases, the company recognizes the lease payment as an expense on a straight line basis over the term of the lease.

At commencement date, the ROU asset is measured at cost. The cost of the ROU asset measured at inception shall comprise of the amount of the initial measurement of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received, plus any initial direct costs incurred. The ROU assets are subsequently measured at cost less any accumulated depreciation, accumulated impairment losses, if any.

The ROU assets are depreciated using the straight-line method from the commencement date over the shorter of lease term or useful life of ROU asset. The estimated useful lives of ROU assets are determined on the same basis as those of PPE. Right-of-use assets are tested for impairment whenever there is any indication that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. Impairment loss, if any, is recognized in the statement of profit and loss.

At the commencement date, the company measures the lease liability at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at that date. The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if not readily determinable, using the company''s incremental borrowing rate.

Lease liability and ROU assets are separately presented in the Balance Sheet. Lease payments are classified as financing cash flows while short-term lease payments, payment for leases of low value assets are classified within operating activities.

h) Impairment:

Assets are tested for impairment when 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 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 (cash-generating units).

Non-financial assets other than goodwill that suffered impairment are reviewed for possible reversal of the impairment at the end of each reporting period.

The Company reviews its carrying value of investments in subsidiaries carried at cost (net of impairment, if any) annually, or more frequently when there is indication for impairment. If the recoverable amount is less than its carrying amount, the impairment loss is accounted for in the statement of profit and loss.

i) 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 company operates (''the functional currency''). I.e. in Indian rupee (INR) and all values are rounded off to nearest lakhs except otherwise indicated.

II. Transactions and Balances

a) Transactions in foreign currencies are recorded at the spot exchange rates prevailing on the date of the transaction.

b) Foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate prevailing on the balance sheet dates.

c) Non-monetary items denominated in foreign currency are valued at the exchange rate prevailing on the date of transaction if the item is valued at historical cost and are not reinstated.

d) Non-monetary items that are measured at fair value in foreign currency are translated using the exchanges rates at the date when the fair value is measured.

e) Exchange differences arising on settlement of transactions and translation of monetary items are recognized as income or expense in the statement of profit and loss in the year in which they arise.

j) Inventories:

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost of raw materials, components, stores, spares, Work-in-Progress and Finished Goods are ascertained on a weighted average basis.

The cost of Finished Goods and Work-in-Progress comprises of direct materials, direct labour and an appropriate proportion of variable and fixed overhead expenditure, the latter being allocated on the basis of normal operating capacity. Costs of purchased inventory are determined after excluding rebates and discounts.

Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. Materials and supplies held for use in the production of inventories are not written down if the finished products in which they will be used are expected to be sold at or above cost.

k) Employee Benefits:

I. Short Term Obligations:

Liabilities for wages, salaries, and bonuses, including non-monetary benefits that are expected to be settled wholly within 12 months after the end of the year in which the employees render the related service are measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled. A liability is recognised for the amount expected to be paid when there is a present legal or constructive obligation to pay this amount as a result of past service provide by the employee and the obligation can be estimated reliably. The liabilities are presented under other financial liabilities in the balance sheet.

II. Long term Post-employment obligation:

The company has the following post-employment benefit obligations:

i) Defined benefit gratuity plans; and

ii) Defined contribution plans such as provident fund

The liability or asset recognized in the balance sheet in respect of defined benefit 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 net defined benefit obligation is valued annually by an independent actuary using the projected unit credit method.

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 under finance cost 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 arise, directly in other comprehensive income and are adjusted against 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 profit or loss as past service cost.

Provident Fund and Pension Plans:

The eligible employees of the Company are entitled to receive benefits in respect of provident fund, a defined contribution plan, in which both employees and the Company make monthly contributions at a specified percentage of the covered employees'' salary. The contributions as specified under the law are made to the Employee Provident Fund Organization (EPFO). The Company is liable only for its fixed contributions which are required to be made in accordance with the schemes in force as notified by EPFO. All contributions made by the Company are recognized as expenses for the relevant period.

i. Other Long-Term Employee Benefits:

Liabilities for compensated absences are not expected to be settled wholly within 12 months after the end of the period in which the employees render the related service. They are, therefore, measured at the present value of the expected future payments that has accrued to the employees in accordance with the company''s policy for compensated absences.

The benefits are discounted using an appropriate discount rate and are estimated using the projected unit credit method by an independent actuary. Remeasurement as a result of experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions are recognised in other comprehensive income. The obligation is classified as current and non-current based on the policy stated in the notes.

The eligible employees of the company are entitled to receive benefits in respect of superannuation, a defined contribution plan, in which the company makes monthly contributions at a specified percentage of the covered employees'' salary. The employees are eligible to receive the contribution made along with accumulated return thereon. The company is liable only for its fixed contributions which are required to be made in accordance with the company''s policy. Being in the nature of a defined contribution plan, the contributions are accounted as an expense as and when they accrue.

l) Taxes on Income:

Tax expense comprises of current and deferred taxes.

The current tax for the period is the tax payable on the current period''s taxable income computed in accordance

with the Income Tax Act, 1961 applying the enacted income tax rate applicable. The current tax expense includes income tax payments relating to prior periods if any.

Deferred income tax is recognized using the balance sheet approach.Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognised for deductible and taxable temporary differences arising between the tax base of assets and liabilities and their carrying amount, except when the deferred income tax arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss at the time of the transaction. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using substantively enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which the temporary differences are expected to be received or settled.

Deferred tax assets are recognized for carry forward of unused tax losses and unused tax credits to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available to utilize those unused tax credits and losses.

Deferred tax assets include Minimum Alternate Tax (MAT) paid in accordance with the tax laws in India, to the extent it would be available for set off against future current income tax liability. Accordingly, MAT is recognised as deferred tax asset in the balance sheet when the asset can be measured reliably and it is probable that the future economic benefit associated with the asset will be realised.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets and liabilities and when the deferred tax balances relate to the same tax jurisdiction. 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.

The carrying amounts of deferred tax assets are reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient tax profits arise for their utilization.

m) Government Grants:

Government Grants including non-monetary grants at fair value, are recognized only when there is reasonable assurance that the entity will comply with the conditions

1 an

attaching to them and the grants will be received. The grants are recognized in profit or loss on a systematic basis over the periods in which the entity recognizes as expenses the related costs which the grants are intended to compensate.

Government grants relating to assets are presented by setting up the grant as deferred income and are credited to profit or loss on systematic basis over the useful lives of the related assets.

Interest Income:

1B. Significant Accounting Policies:

The accounting policies mentioned herein are relating to the standalone financial statements of the Company

a) Revenue Recognition:

A Revenue from contract with customer is accounted only when the parties to the contract has approved the contract and are committed to perform their respective obligations, each party''s rights regarding the goods or services to be transferred can be identified, the payment terms for the goods or services to be transferred can be identified, the contract has a commercial substance and it is probable that the Company will collect the consideration to which it will be entitle in exchange for the goods or services that will be transferred to the customer.

Sale of Products:

Revenue is recognized when the control of goods is transferred to a customer at an amount equal to the transaction price.

Interest income from debt instruments is recognized using the effective interest rate method. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset to the gross carrying value of a financial asset. While calculating the effective interest rate, the company estimates the expected cash flows by considering all the contractual terms of the financial instrument (for example, prepayment, extension, call and similar options), but does not consider the expected credit losses.

Dividend Income:

Dividends are recognized in profit or loss only when the shareholder''s right to receive payment is established and the amount of dividend can be reliably measured.

Rental Income:

Rental Income from operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

b) Cost Recognition:

Costs and Expenses are recognized when incurred and are classified according to their nature.

c) Current and Non-Current Classification:

The company presents assets and liabilities in the balance sheet based on current / non-current classification.

Cash or cash equivalent is treated as current, unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period. In respect of other assets, it is treated as current when it is:

• expected to be realized or intended to be sold or consumed in the normal operating cycle

• held primarily for the purpose of trading

• expected to be realized within twelve months after the reporting period. All other assets are classified as non-current.

All other assets are classified as non-current.

A liability is treated as current when:

• It is expected to be settled in the normal operating cycle

• It is held primarily for the purpose of trading

• It is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period, or

• There is no unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period. Terms of liability that could, at the option of the counterparty, result in its settlement by the issue of equity instruments do not affect its classification.

All other liabilities are classified as non-current. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as non-current assets and liabilities, as the case may be.

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.

d) Property, Plant and Equipment:

All items of Property, Plant, and Equipment are stated at cost of acquisition or construction and any initially directly attributable cost of bringing the asset to its working condition for its intended use, less accumulated depreciation / amortization and Impairment, if any. Cost includes purchase price, taxes, and duties, labour cost and directly attributable overheads incurred upto the date the asset is ready for its intended use. However, cost excludes duty or tax to the extent credit of the duty or tax is availed of.

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 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.

Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with carrying amount. These are included in profit or loss within other gains/ (losses).

e) Depreciation and Amortization:

I. Depreciation is provided for property plant and equipment on straight line method so as to expense the cost less residual value over their estimated useful lives based on a technical evaluation and in accordance with Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013.

II. The useful life of various class of property plant and Equipment are as provided below::

III. The estimated useful lives and residual values are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of any change in estimate accounted for prospective basis.

IV. On tangible fixed assets added / disposed-off during the year, depreciation is charged on prorata basis from the date of addition / till the date of disposal.

V. Depreciation is not recorded on capital work-inprogress until construction and installation are complete and the asset is ready for its intended use.

VI. Property, plant and equipment with finite life are evaluated for recoverability whenever there is any indication that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount (i.e. higher of the fair value less cost to sell and the value-in-use) is determined on an individual asset basis unless the asset does not generate cash flows that are largely independent of those from other assets. In such cases, the recoverable amount is determined for the cash generating unit (CGU) to which the asset belongs. If the recoverable amount of an asset (or CGU) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset (or CGU) is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised in the statement of profit and loss.

f) Intangible Assets

Purchased Intangible Assets:

Intangible assets are recognized as an asset if they meet the criteria for recognition under IndAS 38. Intangible assets purchased are recorded at cost less amortization and accumulated impairment, if any.

Intangible assets consist of rights under licensing agreement and software licences which are amortised over licence period which equates the economic useful life on a straight-line basis over the period of its economic useful life.

Intangible assets with finite life are evaluated for recoverability whenever there is any indication that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount (i.e. higher of the fair value less cost to sell and the value-in-use) is determined on an individual asset basis unless the asset does not generate cash flows that are largely independent of those from other assets. In such cases, the recoverable amount is determined for the cash generating unit (CGU) to which the asset belongs.

If the recoverable amount of an asset (or CGU) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset (or CGU) is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised in the statement of profit and loss.

The amortization period for intangible assets with finite useful lives is reviewed at least at each year-end. Changes in expected useful lives are treated as changes in accounting estimates.

Internally generated intangible assets:

Research costs are charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss in the year in which they are incurred. Product development costs incurred on new products are recognized as intangible assets, when feasibility has been established, the company has committed technical, financial, and other resources to complete the development, and it is probable that asset will generate probable future economic benefit.

g) Leases:

Effective April1, 2019, the company has applied Ind AS 116 on Lease Accounting. Ind AS 116 replaces Ind AS 17.

The company has chosen the practical expedient provided by the standard to apply Ind AS 116 only to contracts that were previously identified as leases under Ind AS 17 and therefore has not reassessed whether a contract is or contains a lease at the date of initial application. Consequently, the application of the standard has no transition impact.

The company, as a lessee, recognises, at inception of a contract, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration.

At the date of commencement of the lease, the company recognizes a right-of-use ("ROU") asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term and a lease liability for all lease arrangements in which it is a lessee except for leases with a term of 12 months or less (short term leases) and leases for which the underlying assets is of low value. For such short term and assets of low value leases, the company recognizes the lease payment as an expense on a straight line basis over the term of the lease.

At commencement date, the ROU asset is measured at cost. The cost of the ROU asset measured at inception shall comprise of the amount of the initial measurement of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received, plus any initial direct costs incurred. The ROU assets are subsequently measured at cost less any accumulated depreciation, accumulated impairment losses, if any.

The ROU assets are depreciated using the straight-line method from the commencement date over the shorter of lease term or useful life of ROU asset. The estimated useful lives of ROU assets are determined on the same basis as those of PPE. Right-of-use assets are tested for impairment whenever there is any indication that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. Impairment loss, if any, is recognized in the statement of profit and loss.

At the commencement date, the company measures the lease liability at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at that date. The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if not readily determinable, using the company''s incremental borrowing rate.

Lease liability and ROU assets are separately presented in the Balance Sheet. Lease payments are classified as financing cash flows while short-term lease payments, payment for leases of low value assets are classified within operating activities.

h) Impairment:

Assets are tested for impairment when 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 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 (cash-generating units).

Non-financial assets other than goodwill that suffered impairment are reviewed for possible reversal of the impairment at the end of each reporting period.

The Company reviews its carrying value of investments in subsidiaries carried at cost (net of impairment, if any) annually, or more frequently when there is indication for impairment. If the recoverable amount is less than its carrying amount, the impairment loss is accounted for in the statement of profit and loss.

i) 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 company operates (''the functional currency''). I.e. in Indian rupee (INR) and all values are rounded off to nearest lakhs except otherwise indicated.

II. Transactions and Balances

a) Transactions in foreign currencies are recorded at the spot exchange rates prevailing on the date of the transaction.

b) Foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate prevailing on the balance sheet dates.

c) Non-monetary items denominated in foreign currency are valued at the exchange rate prevailing on the date of transaction if the item is valued at historical cost and are not reinstated.

d) Non-monetary items that are measured at fair value in foreign currency are translated using the exchanges rates at the date when the fair value is measured.

e) Exchange differences arising on settlement of transactions and translation of monetary items are recognized as income or expense in the statement of profit and loss in the year in which they arise.

j) Inventories:

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost of raw materials, components, stores, spares, Work-in-Progress and Finished Goods are ascertained on a weighted average basis.

The cost of Finished Goods and Work-in-Progress comprises of direct materials, direct labour and an

appropriate proportion of variable and fixed overhead expenditure, the latter being allocated on the basis of normal operating capacity. Costs of purchased inventory are determined after excluding rebates and discounts.

Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. Materials and supplies held for use in the production of inventories are not written down if the finished products in which they will be used are expected to be sold at or above cost.

k) Employee Benefits:

I. Short Term Obligations:

Liabilities for wages, salaries, and bonuses, including non-monetary benefits that are expected to be settled wholly within 12 months after the end of the year in which the employees render the related service are measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled. A liability is recognised for the amount expected to be paid when there is a present legal or constructive obligation to pay this amount as a result of past service provide by the employee and the obligation can be estimated reliably. The liabilities are presented under other financial liabilities in the balance sheet.

II. Long term Post-employment obligation:

The company has the following post-employment benefit obligations:

i) Defined benefit gratuity plans; and

ii) Defined contribution plans such as provident fund

The liability or asset recognized in the balance sheet in respect of defined benefit 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 net defined benefit obligation is valued annually by an independent actuary using the projected unit credit method.

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 under finance cost 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 arise, directly in other comprehensive income

and are adjusted against 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 profit or loss as past service cost.

III. Provident Fund and Pension Plans:

The eligible employees of the Company are entitled to receive benefits in respect of provident fund, a defined contribution plan, in which both employees and the Company make monthly contributions at a specified percentage of the covered employees'' salary. The contributions as specified under the law are made to the Employee Provident Fund Organization (EPFO). The Company is liable only for its fixed contributions which are required to be made in accordance with the schemes in force as notified by EPFO. All contributions made by the Company are recognized as expenses for the relevant period.

i. Other Long-Term Employee Benefits:

Liabilities for compensated absences are not expected to be settled wholly within 12 months after the end of the period in which the employees render the related service. They are, therefore, measured at the present value of the expected future payments that has accrued to the employees in accordance with the company''s policy for compensated absences.

The benefits are discounted using an appropriate discount rate and are estimated using the projected unit credit method by an independent actuary. Remeasurement as a result of experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions are recognised in other comprehensive income. The obligation is classified as current and noncurrent based on the policy stated in the notes.

The eligible employees of the company are entitled to receive benefits in respect of superannuation, a defined contribution plan, in which the company makes monthly contributions at a specified percentage of the covered employees'' salary. The employees are eligible to receive the contribution made along with accumulated return thereon. The company is liable only for its fixed contributions which are required to be made in accordance with the company''s policy. Being in the nature of a defined contribution plan, the contributions are accounted as an expense as and when they accrue.

Tax expense comprises of current and deferred taxes.

The current tax for the period is the tax payable on the current period''s taxable income computed in accordance with the Income Tax Act, 1961 applying the enacted income tax rate applicable. The current tax expense includes income tax payments relating to prior periods if any.

Deferred income tax is recognized using the balance sheet approach.Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognised for deductible and taxable temporary differences arising between the tax base of assets and liabilities and their carrying amount, except when the deferred income tax arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss at the time of the transaction. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using substantively enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which the temporary differences are expected to be received or settled.

Deferred tax assets are recognized for carry forward of unused tax losses and unused tax credits to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available to utilize those unused tax credits and losses.

Deferred tax assets include Minimum Alternate Tax (MAT) paid in accordance with the tax laws in India, to the extent it would be available for set off against future current income tax liability. Accordingly, MAT is recognised as deferred tax asset in the balance sheet when the asset can be measured reliably and it is probable that the future economic benefit associated with the asset will be realised.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets and liabilities and when the deferred tax balances relate to the same tax jurisdiction. 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.

The carrying amounts of deferred tax assets are reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient tax profits arise for their utilization.

m) Government Grants:

Government Grants including non-monetary grants at fair value, are recognized only when there is reasonable assurance that the entity will comply with the conditions attaching to them and the grants will be received. The grants are recognized in profit or loss on a systematic basis over the periods in which the entity recognizes as expenses the related costs which the grants are intended to compensate.

Government grants relating to assets are presented by setting up the grant as deferred income and are credited to profit or loss on systematic basis over the useful lives of the related assets.

e) Use of Estimates:

The preparation of financial statements requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and notes thereto. The management believes that these estimates and assumptions are reasonable and prudent. However, actual results could differ from these estimates. Any revision to accounting estimates is recognized prospectively in the current and future period.

This note provides an overview of the areas that involved a higher degree of judgment 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 judgments is included in the relevant notes together with information about the basis of calculation for each affected line item in the financial statements.

v) Recoverability/Recognition of Deferred Tax Assets (Refer No. 35)

f) Current and Non-Current Classification:

The Company presents assets and liabilities in the balance sheet based on current / non-current classification.

Cash or cash equivalent is treated as current, unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period. In respect of other assets, it is treated as current when it is:

- expected to be realized or intended to be sold or consumed in the normal operating cycle

- held primarily for the purpose of trading

- expected to be realized within twelve months after the reporting period. All other assets are classified as non-current.

A liability is treated as current when:

- it is expected to be settled in the normal operating cycle

- it is held primarily for the purpose of trading

- it is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period, or

- there is no unconditional right to defer the 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 assets and liabilities, as the case may be.

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.

g) Revenue Recognition:

Revenue is measured at fair value of consideration received or receivable net of returns. It includes excise duty (upto 30^th June 2017), but excludes VAT (upto 30^th June 2017) and Sales Tax (upto 30^th June 2017) and does not include Goods and Service Tax.

Revenue from sale of products is recognized, when significant risks and rewards of ownership pass to the dealer / customer, as per terms of contract and it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the Company.

Interest income from debt instruments is recognized using the effective interest rate method. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset to the gross carrying value of a financial asset. While calculating the effective interest rate, the Company estimates the expected cash flows by considering all the contractual terms of the financial instrument (for example, prepayment, extension, call and similar options), but does not consider the expected credit losses.

Dividends are recognized in profit or loss only when the right to receive payment is established and the amount of dividend can be reliably measured.

Rental Income from operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term unless either

a) another systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern in which use benefit derived from the asset is diminished, even if the payment is not on that basis; or

b) the payments to the lessor are structured to increase in line with the expected general inflation.

h) Cost Recognition:

Costs and Expenses are recognized when incurred and are classified according to their nature.

i) Property, Plant and Equipment:

Freehold Land is carried at deemed cost as at the date of transition to Indian Accounting Standard as per the exemption availed under IndAS 101. Leasehold land is carried at deemed cost at the date of transition to Indian Accounting Standards as reduced by the amortization of the deemed cost over the expired period of lease. All other items of Property, Plant and Equipment are stated at cost of acquisition or construction less accumulated depreciation / amortization and impairment, if any. Cost includes purchase price, taxes and duties, labour cost and directly attributable overheads incurred upto the date the asset is ready for its intended use. However, cost excludes Excise Duty, Value Added Tax and Service Tax, Goods and Service Tax to the extent credit of the duty or tax is availed of.

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 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.

Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with carrying amount. These are included in profit or loss within other gains/(losses).

j) Depreciation and Amortization:

i) Depreciation on property plant and equipment is charged over the estimated useful life of the asset or part of the asset, on straight line method, in accordance with Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013.

ii) The useful life of various class of property plant and Equipment are as provided below:

iii) Residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted, if appropriate, for each reporting period.

iv) On tangible fixed assets added / disposed-off during the year, depreciation is charged on pro-rata basis from the date of addition / till the date of disposal

k) Intangible Assets

Purchased Intangible Assets:

Intangible assets are recognized as an asset if they meet the criteria for recognition under IndAS 38. Intangible assets are recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment, if any.

Amortization is provided on a straight-line basis over estimated useful lives of the intangible assets as per details below:

The amortization period for intangible assets with finite useful lives is reviewed at least at each year-end. Changes in expected useful lives are treated as changes in accounting estimates.

Internally generated intangible assets:

Research costs are charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss in the year in which they are incurred. Product development costs incurred on new products are recognized as intangible assets, when feasibility has been established, the Company has committed technical, financial and other resources to complete the development and it is probable that asset will generate probable future economic benefits

l) Leases:

At the inception of a lease, the lease arrangement is classified as either a finance lease or an operating lease, based on the substance of the lease arrangement.

Accounting of Finance leases

A finance lease is recognized as an asset and a liability at the commencement of the lease, at the lower of the fair value of the asset and the present value of the minimum lease payments. Initial direct costs, if any, are also capitalized and, subsequent to initial recognition, the asset is accounted for in accordance with the accounting policy applicable to that asset. Minimum lease payments made under finance leases are apportioned between the finance expense and the reduction of the outstanding liability. The finance expense is allocated to each period during the lease term so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability.

Accounting of Operating leases

Leases other than finance leases are operating leases, and the leased assets are not recognized on the Company’s balance sheet. Payments made under operating leases are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.

m) Impairment:

Assets are tested for impairment when 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 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 (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.

n) 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 Company operates (‘the functional currency’). i.e in Indian rupee (INR) and all values are rounded off to nearest lakhs except otherwise indicated.

(ii) Transactions and Balances

a) Transactions in foreign currencies are recorded at the spot exchange rates prevailing on the date of transaction.

b) Foreign currency monetary assets and liabilities are translated at year end exchange rates.

c) Non-monetary items denominated in foreign currency are valued at the exchange rate prevailing on the date of transaction if the item is valued at historical cost.

d) Non-monetary items that are measured at fair value in foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value is measured.

e) Exchange differences arising on settlement of transactions and translation of monetary items are recognized as income or expense in the year in which they arise.

o) Inventories:

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost of raw materials, components, stores, spares, work-in-progress and finished goods are ascertained on a weighted average basis. Cost of finished goods and work-in-progress comprises of direct materials, direct labour and an appropriate proportion of variable and fixed overhead expenditure, the latter being allocated on the basis of normal operating capacity. Costs of purchased inventory are determined after excluding rebates and discounts. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. Materials and supplies held for use in production of inventories are not written down if the finished products in which they will be used are expected to be sold at or above cost.

p) Employee Benefits:

i) Short Term Obligations:

Liabilities for wages, salaries and bonuses, including non-monetary benefits that are expected to be settled wholly within 12 months after the end of the year in which the employees render the related service are measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled. The liabilities are presented under other financial liabilities in the balance sheet.

ii) Long term Post-employment obligation:

The Company has the following post-employment benefit obligations:

a) Defined benefit gratuity plans; and

b) Defined contribution plans such as provident fund, pension plans

The liability or asset recognized in the balance sheet in respect of defined benefit 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 net defined benefit obligation is valued annually by an independent actuary using the projected unit credit method.

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 under finance cost 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 arise, directly in other comprehensive income and are adjusted against 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 profit or loss as past service cost.

Provident Fund and Pension Plans:

The eligible employees of the Company are entitled to receive benefits in respect of provident fund, a defined contribution plan, in which both employees and the Company make monthly contributions at a specified percentage of the covered employees’ salary. The contributions as specified under the law are made to the Employee Provident Fund Organization(EPFO). The Company is liable only for its fixed contributions which is required to be made in accordance with the schemes in force as notified by EPFO. All contributions made by the company are recognized as expenses for the relevant period.

iii) Other Long-Term Employee Benefits:

Liabilities for compensated absences are not expected to be settled wholly within 12 months after the end of the period in which the employees render the related service. They are, therefore, measured at the present value of the expected future payments that has accrued to the employees in accordance with the company’s policy for compensated absences. The benefits are discounted using an appropriate discount rate and are estimated using the projected unit credit method by an independent actuary. Remeasurements as a result of experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions are recognised in other comprehensive income. The obligation is classified as current and non-current based on the policy stated in Note No. 1(f).

q) Taxes on Income:

Tax expense comprises of current and deferred taxes.

The current tax for the period is the tax payable on the current period’s taxable income computed in accordance with the Income Tax Act, 1961 applying the enacted income tax rate applicable. The current tax expense includes income tax payments relating to prior periods.

Deferred income tax is recognized using the balance sheet approach, on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. Deferred income tax is determined using tax rates (and laws) that have been enacted or substantially enacted by the end of the reporting period.

Deferred tax assets are recognized for carryforward of unused tax losses and unused tax credits to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available to utilize those unused tax credits and losses.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets and liabilities and when the deferred tax balances relate to the same tax jurisdiction. 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.

Where the Company is entitled to claim special tax deductions towards qualifying expenditure (Research and Development), the Company accounts for such allowances as tax credits reducing income tax payable and current tax expense.

The carrying amounts of deferred tax assets are reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient tax profits arise for their utilization.

r) Government Grants:

Government Grants including non-monetary grants at fair value, are recognized only when there is reasonable assurance that the entity will comply with the conditions attaching to them and the grants will be received. The grants are recognized in profit or loss on a systematic basis over the periods in which the entity recognizes as expenses the related costs which the grants are intended to compensate.

Government grants relating to assets are presented by setting up the grant as deferred income and are credited to profit or loss on systematic basis over the useful lives of the related assets.

s) Provisions and Contingent Liabilities:

i) Provision

Provision is 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 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.

ii) Contingent Liabilities:

Wherever there is a possible obligation that arises from past events and whose existence will be confirmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of the entity or a present obligation that arises from past events but is not recognized because (a) it is not probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation; or (b) the amount of the obligation cannot be measured with sufficient reliability a disclosure is made by way of contingent liability.

t) Segment Reporting:

Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker.

u) Cash and Cash Equivalents:

For the purpose of presentation in the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, deposits held with financial institutions 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, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown under borrowings in current liabilities in the balance sheet.

v) Financial Instruments:

A financial instrument is any contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one entity and a financial liability or equity instrument of another entity. Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognized when the company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the relevant instrument and are initially measured at fair value.

w) Financial Assets:

Classification:

The company classifies its financial assets in the following categories:

- Those to be measured subsequently at fair value (either through other comprehensive income, or through profit or loss), and

- Those measured at amortized cost

The classification depends on the entity’s business model for managing the financial assets and the contractual term of the cash flow.

Measurement:

All financial assets are initially recognized at fair value and are subsequently measured at amortized cost or fair value based on their classification.

Transaction costs arising on acquisition of a financial asset are accounted as below:

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. The following are the 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 debt instrument that is subsequently measured at amortized cost and is not a part of a hedging relationship is recognized in profit or loss when the asset is de-recognized or impaired. Interest income on these financial assets is included in finance income using effective interest rate method.

Fair Value through Other Comprehensive Income and Fair Value through profit/loss:

Assets that do not meet the criteria for measurement at amortized cost are measured at Fair value through Other comprehensive income unless the company elects the option to measure the same at fair value through profit or loss to eliminate an accounting mismatch.

Equity Instruments:

The company subsequently measures all investments in equity instruments other than investments in subsidiary companies at fair value. Gain/Loss arising on fair value is recognized in the statement of profit and loss. Dividend from such investments are recognized in profit or loss as other income when the company’s right to receive payments is established.

Investment in Subsidiary Companies:

Investment in subsidiary companies are measured at cost less provision for impairment, if any.

Trade receivables:

Trade receivables are measured at amortized cost and are carried at values arrived after deducting allowances for expected credit losses and impairment, if any.

Impairment:

The company accounts for impairment of financial assets based on the expected credit loss model. The company measures expected credit losses on a case to case basis.

Derecognition and write-off:

A financial asset is derecognized only when:

a) The contractual right to receive the cash flows of the financial asset expires or

b) The company has transferred the rights to receive cash flows from the financial asset or

c) The company 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.

Further a financial asset is derecognized only when the company transfers all risks and rewards associated with the ownership of the assets.

The gross carrying amount of a financial asset is directly reduced and an equal expenditure is recognized when the entity has no reasonable expectations of recovering a financial asset in its entirety or a portion thereof. A write-off constitutes a derecognition event.

ii) Financial Liabilities:

Financial Liabilities are initially recognised at fair value, net of transaction cost incurred. Financial Liabilities are subsequently measured at amortised cost (unless the entity elects to measure it at Fair Value through Profit and Loss Statement to eliminate any accounting mismatch). Any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction cost) and the redemption amount is recognised in profit or loss over the period of the liability, using the effective interest method.

Financial Liabilities 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 as other gain / (loss). Financial Liabilities 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.
