Accounting Policies of Vedant Fashions Ltd. Company

Mar 31, 2025

3. SUMMARY OF MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICY INFORMATION

The Company has applied following accounting policies to all reporting years presented in these Ind AS financial
statements.

a) i) Revenue recognition from contracts with customers

Revenue from sale of goods is recognised when control of the products being sold is transferred to our customer
and when there are no longer any unfulfilled obligations and that reflects the consideration to which the Company
expect to be entitled to in exchange of products. The disclosures of significant accounting judgements, estimates
and assumptions relating to revenue from contracts with customers are provided in Note 54.

The performance obligations in our contracts are fulfilled at the time of delivery or upon formal customer
acceptance depending on customer terms where the Company acts as principal

Revenue towards satisfaction of a performance obligation is measured at the amount of transaction price (net of
variable consideration) allocated to that performance obligation. The transaction price of goods sold and services
rendered is net of variable consideration on account of various discounts, margin, rate change etc offered by the
Company as part of the contract.

The Company does not expect to have any contracts where the period between the transfer of the promised goods
or services to the customer and payment by the customer exceeds one year. As a consequence, the Company does
not adjust any of the transaction prices for the time value of money.

Contract balances
Trade receivables

A receivable represents the Company’s right to an amount of consideration that is unconditional (i.e., only the
passage of time is required before payment of the consideration is due). Refer to accounting policies of financial
assets in Section (e) - Financial instruments.

Contract liabilities

A contract liability is the obligation to transfer goods or services to a customer for which the Company has received
consideration (or an amount of consideration is due) from the customer. If a customer pays consideration before
the Company transfers goods or services to the customer, a contract liability is recognised when the payment
is made or the payment is due (whichever is earlier). Contract liabilities are recognised as revenue when the
Company performs under the contract.

Assets and liabilities arising from rights of return
Refund liabilities

The amount of revenue recognised is adjusted for expected returns, which are estimated based on the historical
data. In these circumstances, a refund liability and a right to recover returned goods asset are recognised. The
Company updates its estimates of refund liabilities at the end of each reporting year.

Corresponding Right of return asset represents the Company’s right to recover the goods expected to be returned by
customers. The asset is measured at the former carrying amount of the inventory and a corresponding adjustment
is made in cost of sales. The Company updates the measurement of the asset recorded for any revisions to its
expected level of returns, as well as any additional decreases in the value of the returned products.

ii) Export benefits

Export benefits are accounted on recognition of export sales where there is reasonable assurance that the benefits
will be received, and all attached conditions will be complied with. It is recognized as other operating revenue.

iii) Interest income

Interest income 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 amount of a financial asset. When 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.

However, for financial assets that have become credit-impaired subsequent to initial recognition, interest income
is calculated by applying the effective interest rate to the amortised cost of the financial asset. If the asset is no
longer credit-impaired, then the calculation of interest income reverts to the gross basis.

b) Property, Plant and Equipment

(i) Property, plant and equipment

The cost of an item of property, plant and equipment shall be recognised 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 the item can be
measured reliably.

The initial cost of property, plant and equipment comprises its purchase price, including import duties and non¬
refundable purchase taxes, attributable borrowing cost and any other directly attributable costs of bringing an
asset to working condition and location for its intended use and net charges on foreign exchange contracts and
adjustments arising from exchange rate variations attributable to the intangible assets. It also includes the present
value of the expected cost for the decommissioning and removing of an asset and restoring the site after its use, if
the recognition criteria for a provision are met.

Expenditure incurred after the property, plant and equipment have been put into operation, such as repairs and
maintenance, are normally charged to the statements of profit and loss in the year in which the costs are incurred.
Major inspection and overhaul expenditure is capitalised if the recognition criteria are met.

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 net within other income/
other expenses in statement of profit and loss.

An item of property, plant and equipment and any significant part initially recognized is derecognized upon disposal
or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss arising on de-recognition
of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is
included in the statement of profit and loss, when the asset is derecognized.

The residual values, useful lives and methods of depreciation of property, plant and equipment are reviewed at each
financial year end and adjusted prospectively, if appropriate.

(ii) Capital work in progress

Assets in the course of construction are capitalised in capital work in progress account. At the point when an
asset is capable of operating in the manner intended by management, the cost of construction is transferred to
the appropriate category of property, plant and equipment. Costs associated with the commissioning of an asset
are capitalised when the asset is available for use but incapable of operating at normal levels until the period of
commissioning has been completed. Capital work in progress is stated at cost, net of accumulated impairment
loss, if any

(iii) Depreciation

Assets in the course of development or construction and freehold land are not depreciated. These assets are tested
for impairment.

Other property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment
loss, if any.

Depreciation on additions/(disposals) is provided on a pro-rata basis i.e. from/ (up to) the date on which asset is
ready for use/ (disposed off).

Depreciation is provided on written down value method over the estimated useful lives of the assets and are in
line with the requirements of Part C of Schedule II of the Companies Act, 2013 except certain items of furniture
as detailed in next paragraph.

Depreciation is calculated on the depreciable amount, which is the cost of an asset less its residual value.
Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost, less estimated residual value, of each asset on a
written down value basis over its expected useful lives. The estimated useful lives are as follows:

The Company, based on technical assessment and management estimate, depreciates certain items of furniture
over 5 years. This estimated useful life is different from the useful life prescribed in Schedule II to the Companies
Act, 2013.The management believes that these estimated useful lives are realistic and reflect fair approximation
of the period over which the assets are likely to be used.

Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at each financial year end and changes in
estimates, if any, are accounted for prospectively, if appropriate.

(iv) Subsequent expenditure

Subsequent expenditure is capitalised only if it is probable that the future economic benefits associated with the
expenditure will flow to the Company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably.

c) Intangible assets and intangible assets under development

Intangible assets acquired on a basis are measured on initial recognition at cost. The cost comprises purchase price,
borrowing costs, and any cost directly attributable to bringing the asset to its working condition for the intended use
and net charges on foreign exchange contracts and adjustments arising from exchange rate variations attributable to
the intangible assets.

Following initial recognition, intangible assets are carried at cost less any accumulated amortisation and accumulated
impairment losses. Intangible assets acquired in a business combination is valued at fair value at the date of acquisition.
The useful lives of intangible assets are assessed as either finite or indefinite.

Intangible assets with finite economic useful life are amortized on a written down value basis over those useful life and
tested for impairment whenever there is an indication of impairment. The amortisation period and the amortisation
method for an intangible asset are reviewed at least at the end of each reporting period. Changes in the expected
useful life or the expected pattern of consumption of future economic benefits embodied in the asset are considered
to modify the amortisation period or method, as appropriate, and are treated as changes in accounting estimates. The
amortisation expense on intangible assets is recognized in the statement of profit and loss unless such expenditure
forms part of carrying value of another asset.

Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are not amortised, but are tested for impairment annually or when
circumstances indicate that the carrying value may be impaired, either individually or at the cash- generating unit
level.

The estimated useful lives of the intangible assets are as follows:-

O Computer softwar 3 years

O Trademark and Copyright 5-10 years

O Brand and Goodwill (acquired) Indefinite Life subject to impairment testing

O Tenancy right and others 5 years

An intangible asset is derecognised upon disposal (i.e., at the date the recipient obtains control) or when no future
economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss arising upon derecognition of the asset
(calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in
the statement of profit and loss when the asset is derecognised.

For indefinite life intangible assets, the assessment of indefinite life is reviewed annually to determine whether it
continues, if not, it is impaired or changed prospectively basis revised estimates.

Goodwill is initially recognised based on the accounting policy for business combinations and is tested for impairment
annually.

Impairment is determined for goodwill by assessing the recoverable amount of respective CGU (Cash Generating
Unit) to which the goodwill relates. When the recoverable amount of the CGU is less than it’s carrying amount, an
impairment loss is recognised. Impairment losses relating to goodwill cannot be reversed in future periods.

Intangible assets under development are stated at cost, net of accumulated impairment loss, if any.

Subsequent expenditure is capitalised only when it increases the future economic benefits embodied in the specific
asset to which it relates.

All other expenditure, including expenditure on internally generated goodwill and brands, is recognised in profit or
loss as incurred.

d) Financial instruments

Financial assets

(i) Recognition and initial measurement of financial assets

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.

Trade receivables and debt securities issued are initially recognised when they are originated. All other financial
assets are initially recognised when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument
and the contract transaction is executed.

A financial asset (unless it is a trade receivable without a significant financing component) or for which the
Company has applied the practical expedient is initially measured at fair value plus or minus, for an item not

at FVTPL, transaction costs that are directly attributable to its acquisition or issue. A trade receivable without a

significant financing component or for which the Company has applied the practical expedient is initially measured
at the transaction price determined under Ind AS 115 - “Revenue from contracts with customers”. Refer to the
accounting policies in section 3(a)(i) Revenue recognition from contract with customer.

(ii) Classification and subsequent measurement of financial asset

At initial recognition, Financial assets are classified and subsequently measured at

- amortised cost,

- fair value through other comprehensive income (OCI) - debt investments,

- fair value through other comprehensive income (OCI) - equity investments and

- fair value through profit or loss.

Financial assets are not reclassified subsequent to their initial recognition unless the Company changes its business
model for managing financial assets, in which case all affected financial assets are reclassified on the first day of
the first reporting period following the change in the business model.

The classification of financial assets at initial recognition depends on the financial asset’s contractual cash flow
characteristics and the Company’s business model for managing them.

In order for a financial asset to be classified and measured at amortised cost or fair value through OCI, it needs
to give rise to cash flows that are ‘solely payments of principal and interest (SPPI)’ on the principal amount
outstanding. This assessment is referred to as the SPPI test and is performed at an instrument level. Financial
assets with cash flows that are not SPPI are classified and measured at fair value through profit or loss, irrespective
of the business model.

The Company’s business model for managing financial assets refers to how it manages its financial assets in order
to generate cash flows. The business model determines whether cash flows will result from collecting contractual
cash flows, selling the financial assets, or both. Financial assets classified and measured at amortised cost are
held within a business model with the objective to hold financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows
while financial assets classified and measured at fair value through OCI are held within a business model with the
objective of both holding to collect contractual cash flows and selling.

A financial asset is measured at amortised cost if it meets both of the following conditions and is not designated
as at FVTPL:

a) it is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets to collect contractual cash flows; and

b) its contractual terms give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest
on the principal amount outstanding.

A ‘financial asset’ is classified as at the FVTOCI if both of the following criteria are met:

a) The objective of the business model is achieved both by collecting contractual cash flows and selling the
financial assets, and

b) The asset’s contractual cash flows represent SPPI.

All financial assets not classified as measured at amortised cost or FVOCI as described above are measured
at FVTPL. This includes all derivative financial assets. On initial recognition, the Company may irrevocably
designate a financial asset that otherwise meets the requirements to be measured at amortised cost or at FVOCI
as at FVTPL if doing so eliminates or significantly reduces an accounting mismatch that would otherwise arise.

Financial assets - Subsequent measurement and gains and losses
Debt investments atFVTOCI:

Debt instruments included within the FVTOCI category are measured initially as well as at each reporting date
at fair value. For debt instruments, at fair value through OCI, interest income, foreign exchange revaluation and
impairment losses or reversals are recognised in the profit or loss and computed in the same manner as for financial
assets measured at amortised cost. The remaining fair value changes are recognised in OCI. Upon derecognition,
the cumulative fair value changes recognised in OCI is reclassified from the equity to profit or loss.

The Company’s debt instruments at fair value through OCI includes investments in quoted debt instruments.

Financial assets at FVTPL:

Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are carried in the balance sheet at fair value with net changes in
fair value including any interest or dividend income are recognised in the Statement of Profits and Losses.

Financial assets at amortised cost:

These assets are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. The amortised
cost is reduced by impairment losses. Interest income, foreign exchange gains and losses and impairment are
recognised in profit or loss. Any gain or loss on derecognition is recognised in profit or loss.

(iii) Derecognition of financial assets

The Company derecognizes a financial asset when

O the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire; or,

O it transfers the rights to receive the contractual cash flows in a transaction in which either:

- substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are transferred; or

- the Company neither transfers nor retains substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership and it
does not retain control of the financial asset.

Purchases or sales of financial assets that require delivery of assets within a time frame established by regulation
or convention in the marketplace (regular way trades) are recognised on the trade date, i.e., the date that the
Company commits to purchase or sell the asset.

Financial liabilities

(i) Recognition and initial measurement of financial Liabilities

Financial liabilities are initially recognised when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of
the instrument.

Financial liability is initially measured at fair value plus or minus, for an item not at FVTPL, transaction costs that
are directly attributable to its acquisition or issue.

(ii) Classification and subsequent measurement and gains and losses on financial Liabilities

Financial liabilities are classified as measured at amortised cost or FVTPL. A financial liability is classified as
at FVTPL if it is classified as held-for-trading, it is a derivative or it is designated as such on initial recognition.
Financial liabilities at FVTPL are measured at fair value and net gains and losses, including any interest expense,
are recognised in profit or loss. Other financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the
effective interest method. Interest expense and foreign exchange gains and losses are recognised in profit or loss.
Any gain or loss on derecognition is also recognised in profit or loss.

The Company’s financial liabilities include trade and other payables, loans and borrowings including bank
overdrafts and derivative financial instruments.

(iii) Derecognition of financial liabilities

A financial liability (or part of a financial liability) is derecognized from the Company’s Balance Sheet when the
obligation specified in the contract is discharged or cancelled or expires. The Company also derecognises a financial
liability when its terms are modified and the cash flows of the modified liability are substantially different, in
which case a new financial liability based on the modified terms is recognised at fair value.

On derecognition of a financial liability, the difference between the carrying amount extinguished and the
consideration paid (including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed) is recognised in profit or loss.

Impairment offinancial assets

At each reporting date, the Company assess whether financial assets, than those at FVTPL are credit impaired.
A financial asset is ‘credit- impaired’ when one or more events that have a detrimental impact on the estimated
future cash flows of the financial asset have occurred.

Evidence that a financial asset is credit-impaired includes the following observable data:

O significant financial difficulty of the borrower or issuer;

O a breach of contract such as a default or being past due for 90 days or more; or
O it is probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganization.

The Company recognises loss allowances using the expected credit losses (ECL) model for the financial assets
which are fair valued through profit or loss.

The amount of expected credit losses (or reversal) that is required to adjust the loss allowance at the reporting
date to the amount that is required to be recognised is recognised as an impairment gain or loss in the Statement
of Profit and Loss.

In case of trade receivables, the Company follows the simplified approach permitted by Ind AS 109 Financial
Instruments for recognition of impairment loss allowance. The application of simplified approach does not
require the Company to track changes in credit risk. The Company calculates the expected credit losses on trade
receivables using a provision matrix on the basis of its historical credit loss experience.

For all other financial assets, expected credit losses are measured unless there has been a significant increase in
credit risk from initial recognition in which case those are measured at lifetime ECL.

When determining whether the credit risk of a financial asset has increased significantly since initial recognition
and when estimating expected credit losses, the Company considers reasonable and supportable information that
is relevant and available without undue cost or effort. This includes both quantitative and qualitative information
and analysis, based on the Company’s historical experience and informed credit assessment and including forward¬
looking information.

Write-off

The gross carrying amount of a financial asset is written off (either partially or in full) to the extent that there is
no realistic prospect of recovery. This is generally the case when the Company determines that the debtor does
not have assets or sources of income that could generate sufficient cash flows to repay the amounts subject to the
write off. However, financial assets that are written off could still be subject to enforcement activities in order to
comply with the Company’s procedures for recovery of amounts due.

Offsetting

Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount presented in the balance sheet when, and
only when, the Company currently has a legally enforceable right to set off the amounts and it intends either to
settle them on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

e) Derivative financial instruments

Initial recognition and subsequent measurement

The Company uses derivative financial instruments, such as forward currency contracts to hedge its foreign currency
risks. Derivatives are carried as financial assets when the fair value is positive and as financial liabilities when the
fair value is negative. Derivatives are designated upon initial recognition at fair value through profit or loss only if the
criteria in Ind AS 109 are satisfied.

Derivatives are initially measured at fair value. Subsequent to initial recognition, derivatives are measured at fair
value, and changes therein are generally recognised in profit or loss.

There is no other hedge instrument in the Company.

f) Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents in the balance sheet comprise cash at banks and on hand and short-term deposits with an
original maturity of three months or less, which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.

For the purpose of the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and short-term deposits, as
defined above.

g) Borrowing Costs

Borrowing costs are expensed in the period in which they occur. Borrowing costs consist of interest and other costs
that an entity incurs in connection with the borrowing of funds.

h) Inventories

a. Raw materials, accessories and packing material are valued at lower of cost and net realisable value. However,
materials and other items held for use in the production of inventories are not written down below cost if the
finished products in which they will be incorporated are expected to be sold at or above cost. Cost of raw materials,
accessories and packing material is determined on First-in-First-out basis.

b. Work-in-progress and finished goods are valued at lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost includes direct
materials, labour and a proportion of manufacturing overheads (where applicable). Cost of finished goods is
determined on weighted average basis using retail method.

c. Traded goods are valued at lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost includes cost of purchase and other costs
incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. Cost is determined on weighted
average method.

d. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less estimated costs of
completion and estimated costs necessary to make the sale.

e. The net realisable value of work-in-progress is determined with reference to the selling prices of related finished
goods. Raw materials, components and other supplies held for use in the production of finished products are not
written down below cost except in cases when a decline in the price of materials indicates that the cost of the
finished products shall exceed the net realisable value.

f. The comparison of cost and net realisable value is made on an item-by-Item basis

g. Obsolete, slow moving and defective inventories are identified and written down to net realisable value.

i) Leases

Company as a lessee

The Company’s lease asset classes primarily consist of leases for commercial spaces and leasehold building. The
Company assesses whether a contract is or contains a lease, at inception of a contract. A contract is, or contains, a
lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for
consideration. To assess whether a contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset, the Company
assesses whether:

(i) the contract involves the use of an identified asset

(ii) the Company has substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the asset through the period of the lease and

(iii) the Company has the right to direct the use of the asset.

At the date of commencement of the lease, the Company recognises a right-of-use asset (“ROU”) and a corresponding
lease liability for all lease arrangements in which it is a lessee, except for leases with a term of twelve months or less
(short term leases) and leases of low value assets based on the recognition exemption criteria. For these short term
and leases of low value assets, the Company recognises the lease payments as an operating expense on a straight line
basis over the term of the lease.

The right-of-use assets are initially recognised at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted
for any lease payments made at or prior to the commencement date of the lease plus any initial direct costs less any
lease incentives. They are subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, if
any. Right-of-use assets are depreciated from the commencement date on a straight-line basis over the shorter of
the lease term and useful life of the underlying asset, unless the lease transfers ownership of the underlying asset
to the Company by the end of the lease term or the cost of the right-of-use asset reflects that the Company will
exercise a purchase option. The lease liability is measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. The
lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if not readily determinable, using the
incremental borrowing rates. The lease liability is subsequently remeasured by increasing the carrying amount to
reflect interest on the lease liability, reducing the carrying amount to reflect the lease payments made.

A lease liability is remeasured upon the occurrence of certain events such as a change in the lease term or a change
in an index or rate, if there is a change in the Company’s estimate of the amount expected to be payable under a
residual value guarantee, if the Company changes its assessment of whether it will exercise a purchase, extension or
termination option or if there is a revised in-substance fixed lease payment. When the lease liability is remeasured in
this way, a corresponding adjustment is made to the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset, or is recorded in profit
or loss if the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset has been reduced to zero.

Lease liability and ROU asset have been separately presented in the balance sheet and lease payments have been
classified as financing cash flows.

Leasehold land which is part of right of use asset is amortised over the period of lease i.e. 99 years.

The Ministry of Corporate Affairs vide notification dated July 24, 2020, issued an amendment to Ind AS 116 - Leases,
by inserting a practical expedient w.r.t. “Covld-19-Related Rent concessions” effective from the period beginning on
or after April 01, 2020. As a practical expedient, a lessee may elect not to assess whether a rent concession that meets
the conditions in paragraph 46B of Ind AS 116 is a lease modification. Pursuant to the notification, the Company has
applied the practical expedient with effect from April 01, 2020 and hence rent concession received during the year
has been recognised as other income

Company as a lessor

Leases in which the Company does not transfer substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of an
asset is classified as operating leases. Rental income arising is accounted for on a straight-line basis over the lease
terms. Initial direct costs incurred in negotiating and arranging an operating lease are added to the carrying amount of
the leased asset and recognised over the lease term on the same basis as rental income. Contingent rents are recognised
as revenue in the period in which they are earned.

Leases are classified as finance leases when substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership transfer from the
Company to the lessee. Amounts due from lessees under finance leases are recorded as receivables at the Company’s
net investment in the leases. Finance lease income is allocated to accounting periods so as to reflect a constant periodic
rate of return on the net investment outstanding in respect of the lease.

j) Taxation

Income tax expense comprises current and deferred tax. It is recognised in profit or loss except to the extent that it
relates to a business combination, or items recognised directly in equity or in Other comprehensive income.

Current income tax

Current income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the
taxation authorities. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted or substantively
enacted, at the reporting date.

Current income tax relating to items recognized outside profit or loss is recognized outside profit or loss (either in other
comprehensive income or in equity). Current tax items are recognized in correlation to the underlying transaction
either in Other Comprehensive Income or directly in equity. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in the
tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulations are subject to interpretation and establishes
provisions where appropriate.

Current tax assets and liabilities are offset only if there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts,
and it is intended to realise the asset and settle the liability on a net basis or simultaneously.

Deferred tax

Deferred tax is provided on temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying
amounts for financial reporting purposes at the reporting date.

Deferred tax is recognised for all taxable temporary differences, except:

- Taxable temporary difference arising from the initial recognition of goodwill

- Temporary difference on initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination
and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss

- Temporary difference related to investments in subsidiary to the extent that the timing of the reversal of the
temporary differences can be controlled and it is probable that the temporary differences will not reverse in the
foreseeable future

Temporary differences in relation to a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for a specific lease are regarded as a net
package (the lease) for the purpose of recognising deferred tax.

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no
longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred tax asset to be utilised.
Unrecognized deferred tax assets are re-assessed at each reporting date and are recognized to the extent that it has
become probable that future taxable profits will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the year when the asset
is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted
at the reporting date.

Deferred tax relating to items recognized outside profit or loss is recognized outside profit or loss (either in other
comprehensive income or in equity). Deferred tax items are recognized in correlation to the underlying transaction
either in Other Comprehensive Income or directly in equity.

The Company offsets deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities if and only if it has a legally enforceable right to
set off current tax assets and current tax liabilities and the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities relate to
income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities which
intend either to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis, or to realize the assets and settle the liabilities
simultaneously, in each future year in which significant amounts of deferred tax liabilities or assets are expected to be
settled or recovered.

Appendix C to Ind AS 12 Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatment

The appendix addresses the accounting for income taxes when tax treatments involve uncertainty that affects the
application of Ind AS 12 Income Taxes. It does not apply to taxes or levies outside the scope of Ind AS 12, nor does
it specifically include requirements relating to interest and penalties associated with uncertain tax treatments. The
Company determines whether to consider each uncertain tax treatment separately or together with one or more other
uncertain tax treatments and uses the approach that better predicts the resolution of the uncertainty. The Appendix
did not have a significant impact on the financial statements of the Company.

k) Employee benefit schemes

i) Short-term employee benefits

Short-term employee benefits are measured on an undiscounted basis and expensed as the related service is
provided. A liability is recognised for the amount expected to be paid under short-term cash bonus, if the Company
has a present legal or constructive obligation to pay this amount as a result of past service provided by the employee
and the obligation can be estimated reliably

ii) Post employment benefits
Defined Contribution Plans

A defined contribution plan is a post-employment benefit plan where the Company’s legal or constructive obligation
is limited to the amount that it contributes to a separate legal entity.

The Company has defined contribution plans for post-employment benefits such as Provident Fund, National
Pension Scheme, Employee’s State Insurance and Employee’s Pension Scheme, 1995. The Company contributes

to a government administered Provident Fund, state plan namely Employee’s Pension Scheme, 1995, Employee’s
State Insurance Scheme and National Pension Scheme on behalf of its employees and has no further obligation
beyond making its contribution. The Company’s contributions to the above funds are recognised in the statement
of profit and loss for the year.

Defined Benefit Plans

The Company has defined benefit plan namely gratuity for all its employees. Liability for defined benefit plan is
provided based on valuations, as at the balance sheet date, carried out by an independent actuary. The actuarial
valuation method used by the independent actuary for measuring the liability is the projected unit credit method.
Actuarial losses and gains are recognised in other comprehensive income and shall not be reclassified to the
statement of profit and loss in a subsequent year. Changes in the present value of the defined benefit obligation
resulting from plan amendments or curtailments are recognised immediately in the statement of profit or loss as
past service costs.

iii) Share-Based Payments

Selected employees of the Company receive part of their remuneration through share-based payments
in consideration for the services rendered. The fair value of the options at the grant date is calculated by an
independent valuer based on Black Scholes model.

Related costs are recognized as employee benefit expense that are correspondingly credited to share-based
payment (SBP) reserves as part of Total Equity, over the period in which the performance and/or service conditions
are fulfilled by covered employees. The cumulative expense recognized for equity-settled transactions at each
reporting date until the vesting date reflects the extent to which the vesting period has expired and the Company’s
best estimate of the number of equity instruments that will ultimately vest. The expense or credit in the Statement
of Profits and Losses for a year represents the movement in cumulative expense recognized as at the beginning
and end of that year and is recognized in employee benefits expense.

Service and non-market performance conditions are not taken into account when determining the grant date fair
value of awards, but the likelihood of the conditions being met is assessed as part of the Company’s best estimate
of the number of equity instruments that will ultimately vest. Market performance conditions are reflected within
the grant date fair value. Any other conditions attached to an award, but without an associated service requirement,
are considered to be non-vesting conditions. Non-vesting conditions are reflected in the fair value of an award and
lead to an immediate expensing of an award unless there are also service and/or performance conditions.

No expense is recognized for awards that do not ultimately vest because non-market performance and/or service
conditions have not been met. Where awards include a market or non-vesting condition, the transactions are
treated as vested irrespective of whether the market or non-vesting condition is satisfied, provided that all other
performance and/or service conditions are satisfied.

iv) Termination benefits are recognised as an expense as and when incurred.

l) Foreign currency transactions

In the financial statements of the Company, transactions in currencies other than the functional currency are
translated into the functional currency at the exchange rates ruling at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and
liabilities denominated in other currencies are translated into the functional currency at exchange rates prevailing on
the reporting date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in other currencies and measured at historical
cost or fair value are translated at the exchange rates prevailing on the dates on which such values were determined.

All exchange differences are included in the statement of profit and loss except any exchange differences on monetary
items designated as an effective hedging instrument of the currency risk of designated forecasted sales or purchases,
which are recognized in the other comprehensive income.

m) Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net profit or loss for the year attributable to equity shareholders
by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year. Earnings considered in ascertaining
the Company’s earnings per share is the net profit for the year. The weighted average number of equity shares
outstanding during the year and for all years presented is adjusted for events (such as bonus shares), split if any other
than the conversion of potential equity shares that have changed the number of equity shares outstanding without

a corresponding change in resources. For calculating diluted earnings per share, the net profit or loss for the year
attributable to equity shareholders and the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period are
adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potential equity shares.

In a capitalisation or bonus issue or a share split, ordinary shares are issued to existing shareholders for no additional
consideration. Therefore, the number of ordinary shares outstanding is increased without an increase in resources.
The number of ordinary shares outstanding before the event is adjusted for the proportionate change in the number of
ordinary shares outstanding as if the event had occurred at the beginning of the earliest period presented.

n) Segment Reporting

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

Based on such internal reporting, the Company is solely engaged in manufacturing, trading, and sale of branded
apparels for men, women and kids. Based on the nature of business and internal reporting provided to the management
for evaluation of the performance of the segment, the Company has a single reportable segment.

o) Use of Estimates and Judgments

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with Ind AS requires management to make judgements,
estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets,
liabilities, income, expenses and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of these financial statements
and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the years presented. Actual results may differ from these
estimates under different assumptions and conditions.

Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are
recognized in the year in which the estimate is revised and future periods affected.

In particular, information about significant areas of estimation uncertainty and critical judgments in applying
accounting policies that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the financial statements are
elaborated in Note 54.

p) Business combinations and goodwill

Business combinations, other than through common control transactions, if any are accounted by using the acquisition
method as per Ind AS 103 ‘Business Combination’. The cost of an acquisition is measured as the aggregate of the
consideration transferred measured at fair value on acquisition date and the amount of any non-controlling interests
in the acquiree. Acquisition related costs are expensed as incurred.

At the acquisition date, the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed are recognized at their acquisition
date fair values. For this purpose, the liabilities assumed include contingent liabilities representing present obligation
and they are measured at their acquisition fair values irrespective of the fact that outflow of resources embodying
economic benefits is not probable.

Goodwill is initially measured at cost, being the excess of the net acquisition cost and any previous interest held, over
the net identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed. If the fair value of the net assets acquired is in excess of
the net cost of acquisition, then the gain is recognised in Other Comprehensive Income and accumulated in equity as
capital reserve. However, if there is no clear evidence of bargain purchase, the Company recognises the gain directly in
equity as capital reserve, without routing the same through Other Comprehensive Income.

After initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. For the purpose of
impairment testing, goodwill acquired in a business combination is, from the acquisition date, allocated to each of the
Company’s cash-generating units that are expected to benefit from the combination, irrespective of whether other
assets or liabilities of the acquiree are assigned to those units.

Common Control Transactions

Business combinations involving entities or businesses in which all the combining entities or businesses are ultimately
controlled by the same party or parties both before and after the business combination and where that control is not
transitory are accounted for as per the pooling of interest method. The business combination is accounted for as if
the business combination had occurred at the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented or, if later, at
the date that common control was established; for this purpose, comparatives are revised. The assets and liabilities

acquired are recognised at their carrying amounts. The identity of the reserves is preserved, and they appear in the
financial statements of the acquiring entity in the same form in which they appeared in the financial statements of the
acquired entity. The difference, if any, between the consideration and the amount of share capital of the acquired entity
is transferred to capital reserve/ adjusted with retained earnings.

3. SUMMARY OF MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICY INFORMATION

The Company has applied following accounting policies to all reporting years presented in these Ind AS standalone financial statements.

a) i) Revenue recognition from contracts with customers

Revenue from sale of goods is recognised when control of the products being sold is transferred to our customer and when there are no longer any unfulfilled obligations and that reflects the consideration to which the Company expect to be entitled to in exchange of products. The disclosures of significant accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions relating to revenue from contracts with customers are provided in Note 54.

The performance obligations in our contracts are fulfilled at the time of delivery or upon formal customer acceptance depending on customer terms where the Company acts as principal

Revenue towards satisfaction of a performance obligation is measured at the amount of transaction price (net of variable consideration) allocated to that performance obligation. The transaction price of goods sold and services rendered is net of variable consideration on account of various discounts, margin, rate change etc offered by the Company as part of the contract.

The Company does not expect to have any contracts where the period between the transfer of the promised goods or services to the customer and payment by the customer exceeds one year. As a consequence, the Company does not adjust any of the transaction prices for the time value of money.

Contract balances Trade receivables

A receivable represents the Company’s right to an amount of consideration that is unconditional (i.e., only the passage of time is required before payment of the consideration is due). Refer to accounting policies of financial assets in Section (e) - Financial instruments.

Contract liabilities

A contract liability is the obligation to transfer goods or services to a customer for which the Company has received consideration (or an amount of consideration is due) from the customer. If a customer pays consideration before the Company transfers goods or services to the customer, a contract liability is recognised when the payment is made or the payment is due (whichever is earlier). Contract liabilities are recognised as revenue when the Company performs under the contract.

Assets and liabilities arising from rights of return Refund liabilities

The amount of revenue recognised is adjusted for expected returns, which are estimated based on the historical data. In these circumstances, a refund liability and a right to recover returned goods asset are recognised. The Company updates its estimates of refund liabilities at the end of each reporting year.

Corresponding Right of return asset represents the Company’s right to recover the goods expected to be returned by customers. The asset is measured at the former carrying amount of the inventory and a corresponding adjustment is made in cost of sales. The Company updates the measurement of the asset recorded for any revisions to its expected level of returns, as well as any additional decreases in the value of the returned products.

ii) Export benefits

Export benefits are accounted on recognition of export sales where there is reasonable assurance that the benefits will be received, and all attached conditions will be complied with. It is recognized as other operating revenue.

iii) Interest income

Interest income 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 amount of a financial asset. When 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.

However, for financial assets that have become credit-impaired subsequent to initial recognition, interest income is calculated by applying the effective interest rate to the amortised cost of the financial asset. If the asset is no longer credit-impaired, then the calculation of interest income reverts to the gross basis.

b) Property, Plant and Equipment

(i) Property, plant and equipment

The cost of an item of property, plant and equipment shall be recognised 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 the item can be measured reliably.

The initial cost of property, plant and equipment comprises its purchase price, including import duties and nonrefundable purchase taxes, attributable borrowing cost and any other directly attributable costs of bringing an asset to working condition and location for its intended use and net charges on foreign exchange contracts and adjustments arising from exchange rate variations attributable to the intangible assets. It also includes the present value of the expected cost for the decommissioning and removing of an asset and restoring the site after its use, if the recognition criteria for a provision are met.

Expenditure incurred after the property, plant and equipment have been put into operation, such as repairs and maintenance, are normally charged to the statements of profit and loss in the year in which the costs are incurred. Major inspection and overhaul expenditure is capitalised if the recognition criteria are met.

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 net within other income/other expenses in statement of profit and loss.

An item of property, plant and equipment and any significant part initially recognized is derecognized upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in the statement of profit and loss, when the asset is derecognized.

The residual values, useful lives and methods of depreciation of property, plant and equipment are reviewed at each financial year end and adjusted prospectively, if appropriate.

(ii) Capital work in progress

Assets in the course of construction are capitalised in capital work in progress account. At the point when an asset is capable of operating in the manner intended by management, the cost of construction is transferred to the appropriate category of property, plant and equipment. Costs associated with the commissioning of an asset are capitalised when the asset is available for use but incapable of operating at normal levels until the period of commissioning has been completed. Capital work in progress is stated at cost, net of accumulated impairment loss, if any

(iii) Depreciation

Assets in the course of development or construction and freehold land are not depreciated. These assets are tested for impairment.

Other property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment loss, if any.

Depreciation on additions/(disposals) is provided on a pro-rata basis i.e. from/ (up to) the date on which asset is ready for use/ (disposed off).

Depreciation is provided on written down value method over the estimated useful lives of the assets and are in line with the requirements of Part C of Schedule II of the Companies Act, 2013 except certain items of furniture as detailed in next paragraph.

Depreciation is calculated on the depreciable amount, which is the cost of an asset less its residual value. Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost, less estimated residual value, of each asset on a written down value basis over its expected useful lives. The estimated useful lives are as follows:

O Buildings 30-60 years

O Computers 3 years

O Computers - Servers 6 years

O Plant and equipment 15 years

O Furniture and fixtures 5-10 years

O Vehicles 8 years

O Office equipment 5 years

The Company, based on technical assessment and management estimate, depreciates certain items of furniture over 5 years. This estimated useful life is different from the useful life prescribed in Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013.The management believes that these estimated useful lives are realistic and reflect fair approximation of the period over which the assets are likely to be used.

Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at each financial year end and changes in estimates, if any, are accounted for prospectively, if appropriate.

(iv) Subsequent expenditure

Subsequent expenditure is capitalised only if it is probable that the future economic benefits associated with the expenditure will flow to the Company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably.

c) Intangible assets and intangible assets under development

Intangible assets acquired on a standalone basis are measured on initial recognition at cost. The cost comprises purchase price, borrowing costs, and any cost directly attributable to bringing the asset to its working condition for the intended use and net charges on foreign exchange contracts and adjustments arising from exchange rate variations attributable to the intangible assets.

Following initial recognition, intangible assets are carried at cost less any accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses. Intangible assets acquired in a business combination is valued at fair value at the date of acquisition. The useful lives of intangible assets are assessed as either finite or indefinite.

Intangible assets with finite economic useful life are amortized on a written down value basis over those useful life and tested for impairment whenever there is an indication of impairment. The amortisation period and the amortisation method for an intangible asset are reviewed at least at the end of each reporting period. Changes in the expected useful life or the expected pattern of consumption of future economic benefits embodied in the asset are considered to modify the amortisation period or method, as appropriate, and are treated as changes in accounting estimates. The amortisation expense on intangible assets is recognized in the statement of profit and loss unless such expenditure forms part of carrying value of another asset.

Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are not amortised, but are tested for impairment annually or when circumstances indicate that the carrying value may be impaired, either individually or at the cash- generating unit level.

An intangible asset is derecognised upon disposal (i.e., at the date the recipient obtains control) or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss arising upon derecognition of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in the statement of profit and loss when the asset is derecognised.

For indefinite life intangible assets, the assessment of indefinite life is reviewed annually to determine whether it continues, if not, it is impaired or changed prospectively basis revised estimates.

Goodwill is initially recognised based on the accounting policy for business combinations and is tested for impairment annually.

Impairment is determined for goodwill by assessing the recoverable amount of respective CGU (Cash Generating Unit) to which the goodwill relates. When the recoverable amount of the CGU is less than it’s carrying amount, an impairment loss is recognised. Impairment losses relating to goodwill cannot be reversed in future periods.

Intangible assets under development is stated at cost, net of accumulated impairment loss, if any.

Subsequent expenditure is capitalised only when it increases the future economic benefits embodied in the specific asset to which it relates.

All other expenditure, including expenditure on internally generated goodwill and brands, is recognised in profit or loss as incurred.

d) Financial instruments

Financial assets

(i) Recognition and initial measurement of financial assets

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.

Trade receivables and debt securities issued are initially recognised when they are originated. All other financial assets are initially recognised when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument and the contract transaction is executed.

A financial asset (unless it is a trade receivable without a significant financing component) or for which the Company has applied the practical expedient is initially measured at fair value plus or minus, for an item not

at FVTPL, transaction costs that are directly attributable to its acquisition or issue. A trade receivable without a

significant financing component or for which the Company has applied the practical expedient is initially measured at the transaction price determined under Ind AS 115 - “Revenue from contracts with customers”. Refer to the accounting policies in section 3(a)(i) Revenue recognition from contract with customer.

(ii) Classification and subsequent measurement of financial asset

At initial recognition, Financial assets are classified and subsequently measured at

- amortised cost,

- fair value through other comprehensive income (OCI) - debt investments,

- fair value through other comprehensive income (OCI) - equity investments and

- fair value through profit or loss.

Financial assets are not reclassified subsequent to their initial recognition unless the Company changes its business model for managing financial assets, in which case all affected financial assets are reclassified on the first day of the first reporting period following the change in the business model.

The classification of financial assets at initial recognition depends on the financial asset’s contractual cash flow characteristics and the Company’s business model for managing them.

In order for a financial asset to be classified and measured at amortised cost or fair value through OCI, it needs to give rise to cash flows that are ‘solely payments of principal and interest (SPPI)’ on the principal amount outstanding. This assessment is referred to as the SPPI test and is performed at an instrument level. Financial assets with cash flows that are not SPPI are classified and measured at fair value through profit or loss, irrespective of the business model.

The Company’s business model for managing financial assets refers to how it manages its financial assets in order to generate cash flows. The business model determines whether cash flows will result from collecting contractual cash flows, selling the financial assets, or both. Financial assets classified and measured at amortised cost are held within a business model with the objective to hold financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows while financial assets classified and measured at fair value through OCI are held within a business model with the objective of both holding to collect contractual cash flows and selling.

A financial asset is measured at amortised cost if it meets both of the following conditions and is not designated as at FVTPL:

a) it is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets to collect contractual cash flows; and

b) its contractual terms give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

A ‘financial asset’ is classified as at the FVTOCI if both of the following criteria are met:

a) The objective of the business model is achieved both by collecting contractual cash flows and selling the financial assets, and

b) The asset’s contractual cash flows represent SPPI.

All financial assets not classified as measured at amortised cost or FVOCI as described above are measured at FVTPL. This includes all derivative financial assets. On initial recognition, the Company may irrevocably designate a financial asset that otherwise meets the requirements to be measured at amortised cost or at FVOCI as at FVTPL if doing so eliminates or significantly reduces an accounting mismatch that would otherwise arise.

Financial assets - Subsequent measurement and gains and losses

Debt investments at FVTOCI: Debt instruments included within the FVTOCI category are measured initially as well as at each reporting date at fair value. For debt instruments, at fair value through OCI, interest income, foreign exchange revaluation and impairment losses or reversals are recognised in the profit or loss and computed in the same manner as for financial assets measured at amortised cost. The remaining fair value changes are recognised in OCI. Upon derecognition, the cumulative fair value changes recognised in OCI is reclassified from the equity to profit or loss.

The Company’s debt instruments at fair value through OCI includes investments in quoted debt instruments.

Financial assets at FVTPL: Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are carried in the balance sheet at fair value with net changes in fair value including any interest or dividend income are recognised in the Statement of Profits and Losses.

Financial assets at amortised cost: These assets are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. The amortised cost is reduced by impairment losses. Interest income, foreign exchange gains and losses and impairment are recognised in profit or loss. Any gain or loss on derecognition is recognised in profit or loss.

(iii) Derecognition of financial assets

The Company derecognizes a financial asset when

O the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire; or,

O it transfers the rights to receive the contractual cash flows in a transaction in which either:

• substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are transferred; or

• the Company neither transfers nor retains substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership and it does not retain control of the financial asset.

Purchases or sales of financial assets that require delivery of assets within a time frame established by regulation or convention in the marketplace (regular way trades) are recognised on the trade date, i.e., the date that the Company commits to purchase or sell the asset.

Financial liabilities

(i) Recognition and initial measurement of financial Liabilities

Financial liabilities are initially recognised when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

Financial liability is initially measured at fair value plus or minus, for an item not at FVTPL, transaction costs that are directly attributable to its acquisition or issue.

(ii) Classification and subsequent measurement and gains and losses on financial Liabilities

Financial liabilities are classified as measured at amortised cost or FVTPL. A financial liability is classified as at FVTPL if it is classified as held-for-trading, it is a derivative or it is designated as such on initial recognition. Financial liabilities at FVTPL are measured at fair value and net gains and losses, including any interest expense, are recognised in profit or loss. Other financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the

effective interest method. Interest expense and foreign exchange gains and losses are recognised in profit or loss. Any gain or loss on derecognition is also recognised in profit or loss.

The Company’s financial liabilities include trade and other payables, loans and borrowings including bank overdrafts and derivative financial instruments.

(iii) Derecognition of financial liabilities

A financial liability (or part of a financial liability) is derecognized from the Company’s Balance Sheet when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged or cancelled or expires. The Company also derecognises a financial liability when its terms are modified and the cash flows of the modified liability are substantially different, in which case a new financial liability based on the modified terms is recognised at fair value.

On derecognition of a financial liability, the difference between the carrying amount extinguished and the consideration paid (including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed) is recognised in profit or loss.

Investment in subsidiary

Investment in subsidiaries are carried at cost.

Impairment of financial assets

At each reporting date, the Company assess whether financial assets, than those at FVTPL are credit impaired. A financial asset is ‘credit- impaired’ when one or more events that have a detrimental impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset have occurred.

Evidence that a financial asset is credit-impaired includes the following observable data:

O significant financial difficulty of the borrower or issuer;

O a breach of contract such as a default or being past due for 90 days or more; or O it is probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganization.

The Company recognises loss allowances using the expected credit losses (ECL) model for the financial assets which are fair valued through profit or loss.

The amount of expected credit losses (or reversal) that is required to adjust the loss allowance at the reporting date to the amount that is required to be recognised is recognised as an impairment gain or loss in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

In case of trade receivables, the Company follows the simplified approach permitted by Ind AS 109 Financial Instruments for recognition of impairment loss allowance. The application of simplified approach does not require the Company to track changes in credit risk. The Company calculates the expected credit losses on trade receivables using a provision matrix on the basis of its historical credit loss experience.

For all other financial assets, expected credit losses are measured unless there has been a significant increase in credit risk from initial recognition in which case those are measured at lifetime ECL.

When determining whether the credit risk of a financial asset has increased significantly since initial recognition and when estimating expected credit losses, the Company considers reasonable and supportable information that is relevant and available without undue cost or effort. This includes both quantitative and qualitative information and analysis, based on the Company’s historical experience and informed credit assessment and including forward-looking information.

Write-off

The gross carrying amount of a financial asset is written off (either partially or in full) to the extent that there is no realistic prospect of recovery. This is generally the case when the Company determines that the debtor does not have assets or sources of income that could generate sufficient cash flows to repay the amounts subject to the write off. However, financial assets that are written off could still be subject to enforcement activities in order to comply with the Company’s procedures for recovery of amounts due.

Offsetting

Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount presented in the balance sheet when, and only when, the Company currently has a legally enforceable right to set off the amounts and it intends either to settle them on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

e) Derivative financial instruments

Initial recognition and subsequent measurement

The Company uses derivative financial instruments, such as forward currency contracts to hedge its foreign currency risks. Derivatives are carried as financial assets when the fair value is positive and as financial liabilities when the fair value is negative. Derivatives are designated upon initial recognition at fair value through profit or loss only if the criteria in Ind AS 109 are satisfied.

Derivatives are initially measured at fair value. Subsequent to initial recognition, derivatives are measured at fair value, and changes therein are generally recognised in profit or loss.

There is no other hedge instrument in the Company.

f) Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents in the balance sheet comprise cash at banks and on hand and short-term deposits with an original maturity of three months or less, which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.

For the purpose of the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and short-term deposits, as defined above.

g) Borrowing Costs

Borrowing costs are expensed in the period in which they occur. Borrowing costs consist of interest and other costs that an entity incurs in connection with the borrowing of funds.

h) Inventories

a. Raw materials, accessories and packing material are valued at lower of cost and net realisable value. However, materials and other items held for use in the production of inventories are not written down below cost if the finished products in which they will be incorporated are expected to be sold at or above cost. Cost of raw materials, accessories and packing material is determined on First-in-First-out basis.

b. Work-in-progress and finished goods are valued at lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost includes direct materials, labour and a proportion of manufacturing overheads (where applicable). Cost of finished goods is determined on weighted average basis using retail method.

c. Traded goods are valued at lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost includes cost of purchase and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. Cost is determined on weighted average method.

d. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less estimated costs of completion and estimated costs necessary to make the sale.

e. The net realisable value of work-in-progress is determined with reference to the selling prices of related finished goods. Raw materials, components and other supplies held for use in the production of finished products are not written down below cost except in cases when a decline in the price of materials indicates that the cost of the finished products shall exceed the net realisable value.

f. The comparison of cost and net realisable value is made on an item-by-Item basis

g. Obsolete, slow moving and defective inventories are identified and written down to net realisable value.

i) Leases

Company as a lessee

The Company’s lease asset classes primarily consist of leases for commercial spaces and leasehold building. The Company assesses whether a contract is or contains a lease, at inception of a contract. A contract is, or contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for

consideration. To assess whether a contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset, the Company assesses whether:

(i) the contract involves the use of an identified asset

(ii) the Company has substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the asset through the period of the lease and

(iii) the Company has the right to direct the use of the asset.

At the date of commencement of the lease, the Company recognises a right-of-use asset (“ROU”) and a corresponding lease liability for all lease arrangements in which it is a lessee, except for leases with a term of twelve months or less (short term leases) and leases of low value assets based on the recognition exemption criteria. For these short term and leases of low value assets, the Company recognises the lease payments as an operating expense on a straight line basis over the term of the lease.

The right-of-use assets are initially recognised at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or prior to the commencement date of the lease plus any initial direct costs less any lease incentives. They are subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, if any. Right-of-use assets are depreciated from the commencement date on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease term and useful life of the underlying asset, unless the lease transfers ownership of the underlying asset to the Company by the end of the lease term or the cost of the right-of-use asset reflects that the Company will exercise a purchase option. The lease liability is measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if not readily determinable, using the incremental borrowing rates. The lease liability is subsequently remeasured by increasing the carrying amount to reflect interest on the lease liability, reducing the carrying amount to reflect the lease payments made.

A lease liability is remeasured upon the occurrence of certain events such as a change in the lease term or a change in an index or rate, if there is a change in the Company’s estimate of the amount expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee, if the Company changes its assessment of whether it will exercise a purchase, extension or termination option or if there is a revised in-substance fixed lease payment lease payments. When the lease liability is remeasured in this way, a corresponding adjustment is made to the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset, or is recorded in profit or loss if the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset has been reduced to zero.

Lease liability and ROU asset have been separately presented in the balance sheet and lease payments have been classified as financing cash flows.

Leasehold land which is part of right of use asset is amortised over the period of lease i.e. 99 years.

The Ministry of Corporate Affairs vide notification dated July 24, 2020, issued an amendment to Ind AS 116 - Leases, by inserting a practical expedient w.r.t. “Covld-19-Related Rent concessions” effective from the period beginning on or after April 01, 2020. As a practical expedient, a lessee may elect not to assess whether a rent concession that meets the conditions in paragraph 46B of Ind AS 116 is a lease modification. Pursuant to the notification, the Company has applied the practical expedient with effect from April 01, 2020 and hence rent concession received during the year has been recognised as other income

Company as a lessor

Leases in which the Company does not transfer substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of an asset is classified as operating leases. Rental income arising is accounted for on a straight-line basis over the lease terms. Initial direct costs incurred in negotiating and arranging an operating lease are added to the carrying amount of the leased asset and recognised over the lease term on the same basis as rental income. Contingent rents are recognised as revenue in the period in which they are earned.

Leases are classified as finance leases when substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership transfer from the Company to the lessee. Amounts due from lessees under finance leases are recorded as receivables at the Company’s net investment in the leases. Finance lease income is allocated to accounting periods so as to reflect a constant periodic rate of return on the net investment outstanding in respect of the lease.

j) Taxation

Income tax expense comprises current and deferred tax. It is recognised in profit or loss except to the extent that it relates to a business combination, or items recognised directly in equity or in Other comprehensive income.

Current income tax

Current income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted or substantively enacted, at the reporting date.

Current income tax relating to items recognized outside profit or loss is recognized outside profit or loss (either in other comprehensive income or in equity). Current tax items are recognized in correlation to the underlying transaction either in Other Comprehensive Income or directly in equity. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in the tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulations are subject to interpretation and establishes provisions where appropriate.

Current tax assets and liabilities are offset only if there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts, and it is intended to realise the asset and settle the liability on a net basis or simultaneously.

Deferred tax

Deferred tax is provided on temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes at the reporting date.

Deferred tax is recognised for all taxable temporary differences, except:

O Taxable temporary difference arising from the initial recognition of goodwill

O Temporary difference on initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss

O Temporary difference related to investments in subsidiary to the extent that the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences can be controlled and it is probable that the temporary differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future

Temporary differences in relation to a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for a specific lease are regarded as a net package (the lease) for the purpose of recognising deferred tax.

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred tax asset to be utilised. Unrecognized deferred tax assets are re-assessed at each reporting date and are recognized to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profits will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the year when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.

Deferred tax relating to items recognized outside profit or loss is recognized outside profit or loss (either in other comprehensive income or in equity). Deferred tax items are recognized in correlation to the underlying transaction either in Other Comprehensive Income or directly in equity.

The Company offsets deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities if and only if it has a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets and current tax liabilities and the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities which intend either to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis, or to realize the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously, in each future year in which significant amounts of deferred tax liabilities or assets are expected to be settled or recovered.

Appendix C to Ind AS 12 Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatment

The appendix addresses the accounting for income taxes when tax treatments involve uncertainty that affects the application of Ind AS 12 Income Taxes. It does not apply to taxes or levies outside the scope of Ind AS 12, nor does it specifically include requirements relating to interest and penalties associated with uncertain tax treatments. The Company determines whether to consider each uncertain tax treatment separately or together with one or more other uncertain tax treatments and uses the approach that better predicts the resolution of the uncertainty. The Appendix did not have a significant impact on the Standalone financial statements of the Company.

k) Employee benefit schemes

i) Short-term employee benefits

Short-term employee benefits are measured on an undiscounted basis and expensed as the related service is provided. A liability is recognised for the amount expected to be paid under short-term cash bonus, if the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation to pay this amount as a result of past service provided by the employee and the obligation can be estimated reliably

ii) Post employment benefits Defined Contribution Plans

A defined contribution plan is a post-employment benefit plan where the Company’s legal or constructive obligation is limited to the amount that it contributes to a separate legal entity.

The Company has defined contribution plans for post-employment benefits such as Provident Fund, National Pension Scheme, Employee’s State Insurance and Employee’s Pension Scheme, 1995. The Company contributes to a government administered Provident Fund, state plan namely Employee’s Pension Scheme, 1995, Employee’s State Insurance Scheme and National Pension Scheme on behalf of its employees and has no further obligation beyond making its contribution. The Company’s contributions to the above funds are recognised in the statement of profit and loss for the year.

Defined Benefit Plans

The Company has defined benefit plan namely gratuity for all its employees. Liability for defined benefit plan is provided based on valuations, as at the balance sheet date, carried out by an independent actuary. The actuarial valuation method used by the independent actuary for measuring the liability is the projected unit credit method. Actuarial losses and gains are recognised in other comprehensive income and shall not be reclassified to the statement of profit and loss in a subsequent year. Changes in the present value of the defined benefit obligation resulting from plan amendments or curtailments are recognised immediately in the statement of profit or loss as past service costs.

iii) Share-Based Payments

Selected employees of the Company receive part of their remuneration through share-based payments in consideration for the services rendered. The fair value of the options at the grant date is calculated by an independent valuer based on Black Scholes model.

Related costs are recognized as employee benefit expense that are correspondingly credited to share-based payment (SBP) reserves as part of Total Equity, over the period in which the performance and/or service conditions are fulfilled by covered employees. The cumulative expense recognized for equity-settled transactions at each reporting date until the vesting date reflects the extent to which the vesting period has expired and the Company’s best estimate of the number of equity instruments that will ultimately vest. The expense or credit in the Statement of Profits and Losses for a year represents the movement in cumulative expense recognized as at the beginning and end of that year and is recognized in employee benefits expense.

Service and non-market performance conditions are not taken into account when determining the grant date fair value of awards, but the likelihood of the conditions being met is assessed as part of the Company’s best estimate of the number of equity instruments that will ultimately vest. Market performance conditions are reflected within the grant date fair value. Any other conditions attached to an award, but without an associated service requirement, are considered to be non-vesting conditions. Non-vesting conditions are reflected in the fair value of an award and lead to an immediate expensing of an award unless there are also service and/or performance conditions.

No expense is recognized for awards that do not ultimately vest because non-market performance and/or service conditions have not been met. Where awards include a market or non-vesting condition, the transactions are treated as vested irrespective of whether the market or non-vesting condition is satisfied, provided that all other performance and/or service conditions are satisfied.

iv) Termination benefits are recognised as an expense as and when incurred.

l) Foreign currency transactions

In the standalone financial statements of the Company, transactions in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rates ruling at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in other currencies are translated into the functional currency at exchange rates prevailing on the reporting date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in other currencies and measured at historical cost or fair value are translated at the exchange rates prevailing on the dates on which such values were determined.

All exchange differences are included in the statement of profit and loss except any exchange differences on monetary items designated as an effective hedging instrument of the currency risk of designated forecasted sales or purchases, which are recognized in the other comprehensive income.

m) Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net profit or loss for the year attributable to equity shareholders by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year. Earnings considered in ascertaining the Company’s earnings per share is the net profit for the year. The weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year and for all years presented is adjusted for events (such as bonus shares), split if any other than the conversion of potential equity shares that have changed the number of equity shares outstanding without a corresponding change in resources. For calculating diluted earnings per share, the net profit or loss for the year attributable to equity shareholders and the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period are adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potential equity shares.

In a capitalisation or bonus issue or a share split, ordinary shares are issued to existing shareholders for no additional consideration. Therefore, the number of ordinary shares outstanding is increased without an increase in resources. The number of ordinary shares outstanding before the event is adjusted for the proportionate change in the number of ordinary shares outstanding as if the event had occurred at the beginning of the earliest period presented.

n) Segment Reporting

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

Based on such internal reporting, the Company is solely engaged in manufacturing, trading, and sale of branded apparels for men, women and kids. Based on the nature of business and internal reporting provided to the management for evaluation of the performance of the segment, the Company has a single reportable segment.

o) Use of Estimates and Judgments

The preparation of the standalone financial statements in conformity with Ind AS requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income, expenses and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of these standalone financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the years presented. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions.

Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the year in which the estimate is revised and future periods affected.

In particular, information about significant areas of estimation uncertainty and critical judgments in applying accounting policies that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the standalone financial statements are elaborated in Note 54.

p) Business combinations and goodwill

Business combinations, if any are accounted by using the acquisition method as per Ind AS 103 ‘Business Combination’. The cost of an acquisition is measured as the aggregate of the consideration transferred measured at fair value on acquisition date and the amount of any non-controlling interests in the acquiree. Acquisition related costs are expensed as incurred.

At the acquisition date, the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed are recognized at their acquisition date fair values. For this purpose, the liabilities assumed include contingent liabilities representing present obligation and they are measured at their acquisition fair values irrespective of the fact that outflow of resources embodying economic benefits is not probable.

Goodwill is initially measured at cost, being the excess of the net acquisition cost and any previous interest held, over the net identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed. If the fair value of the net assets acquired is in excess of the net cost of acquisition, then the gain is recognised in Other Comprehensive Income and accumulated in equity as capital reserve. However, if there is no clear evidence of bargain purchase, the Company recognises the gain directly in equity as capital reserve, without routing the same through Other Comprehensive Income.

After initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill acquired in a business combination is, from the acquisition date, allocated to each of the Company’s cash-generating units that are expected to benefit from the combination, irrespective of whether other assets or liabilities of the acquiree are assigned to those units.

1. COMPANY OVERVIEW

Vedant Fashions Limited (formerly known as Vedant Fashions Private Limited) (the Company) is a public Company domiciled in India and was incorporated on May 24, 2002 under the provisions of the Companies Act applicable in India having CIN L51311WB2002PLC094677. The Company is primarily engaged in manufacturing, trading and sale of readymade ethnic wear for men, women and kids primarily in India under the brand names Manyavar, Mohey, Mebaz, Twamev and Manthan. The company is listed on National Stock Exchange and Bombay Stock Exchange.

Registered and corporate office of the Company is located at Paridhan Garment Park, 19 Canal South Road, SDF 1, 4th floor, A501-A502, Kolkata- 700015.

The Company was converted into a public limited Company under the Companies Act, 2013 on August 25, 2021 and consequently, the name was changed to “Vedant Fashions Limited”.

2. BASIS OF PREPARATION OF STANDALONE FINANCIAL STATEMENTSa) Basis of preparation

These standalone financial statements of the company, have been prepared in accordance with requirements of Indian Accounting Standard, as prescribed under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 (''Act’) read with Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules 2015, as amended, and other accounting principles generally accepted in India and presentation requirements of Division II of Schedule III of the Act (as amended).

These standalone Financial statements are presented in Indian Rupees "INR" or “Rs.” and all values are stated as INR millions, unless indicated otherwise.

These notes provide a list of the significant accounting policies adopted in the preparation of these Standalone financial statements. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated.

The standalone financial statements were authorised for issue by the Company''s Board of Director on 28 April 2023.

These Standalone financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention on the accrual basis except the following assets and liabilities which have been measured at fair value as required by the relevant Indian Accounting Standards :-

a) Certain financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value (refer accounting policies regarding financial instruments)

b) Defined employee benefit plans

b) Basis of fair value measurement

The Company measures financial instruments, such as, derivatives at fair value at each Balance Sheet date. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value measurement is based on the presumption that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability takes place either:

• In the principal market for the asset or liability, or

• In the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the asset or liability

The principal or the most advantageous market must be accessible by the Company.

The fair value of an asset or a liability is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, assuming that market participants act in their best economic interest.

A fair value measurement of a non-financial asset takes into account a market participant’s ability to generate economic benefits by using the asset in its highest and best use or by selling it to another market participant that would use the asset in its highest and best use.

The Company uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available to measure fair value, maximizing the use of relevant observable inputs and minimizing the use of unobservable inputs.

All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the standalone financial statements are categorized within the fair value hierarchy, described as follows, based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole:

Level 1 — Quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

Level 2 — Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is directly or indirectly observable

Level 3 — Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is unobservable

For assets and liabilities that are recognised in the standalone financial statements on a recurring basis, the Company determines whether transfers have occurred between levels in the hierarchy by re-assessing categorisation (based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole) at the end of each reporting year.

Ind AS 12 - Income Taxes

The amendments clarify how companies account for deferred tax on transactions such as leases and decommissioning obligations. The amendments narrowed the scope of the recognition exemption in paragraphs 15 and 24 of Ind AS 12 (recognition exemption) so that it no longer applies to transactions that, on initial recognition, give rise to equal taxable and deductible temporary differences. The Company is evaluating the impact, if any, in its financial statements.

Ind AS 8 - Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors

The amendments will help entities to distinguish between accounting policies and accounting estimates. The definition of a change in accounting estimates has been replaced with a definition of accounting estimates. Under the new definition, accounting estimates are “monetary amounts in financial statements that are subject to measurement uncertainty”. Entities develop accounting estimates if accounting policies require items in financial statements to be measured in a way that involves measurement uncertainty. The Company does not expect this amendment to have any significant impact in its financial statements.

3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Company has applied following accounting policies to all reporting years presented in these Ind AS standalone financial statements.

a) i) Revenue recognition from contracts with customers

Revenue from sale of goods is recognised when control of the products being sold is transferred to our customer and when there are no longer any unfulfilled obligations and that reflects the consideration to which the Company expect to be entitled to in exchange of products. The disclosures of significant accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions relating to revenue from contracts with customers are provided in Note 54.

The performance obligations in our contracts are fulfilled at the time of delivery or upon formal customer acceptance depending on customer terms where the Company acts as principal

Revenue towards satisfaction of a performance obligation is measured at the amount of transaction price (net of variable consideration) allocated to that performance obligation. The transaction price of

At each reporting date, the Company analyses the movements in the values of assets and liabilities which are required to be remeasured or re-assessed as per the Company’s accounting policies. For this analysis, the Company verifies the major inputs applied in the latest valuation by agreeing the information in the valuation computation to contracts and other relevant documents.

The Company also compares the change in the fair value of each asset and liability with relevant external sources to determine whether the change is reasonable.

For the purpose of fair value disclosures, the Company has determined classes of assets and liabilities on the basis of the nature, characteristics and risks of the asset or liability and the level of the fair value hierarchy as explained above.

This note summarises accounting policy for fair value. Other fair value related disclosures are given in the relevant notes.

- Critical estimates and judgements (Note 54)

- Quantitative disclosures of fair value measurement hierarchy (Note 47)

- Financial instruments (including those carried at amortised cost) (Note 46)

c) Functional and presentation currency

These Ind AS standalone financial statements are prepared in Indian Rupee Million and has been rounded to the nearest Million with two decimals unless otherwise indicated.

d) Recent Accounting Developments

Ministry of Corporate Affairs (“MCA”) notifies new standard or amendments to the existing standards under Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules as issued from time to time. On March 31, 2023, MCA amended the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 by issuing the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Amendment Rules, 2023, applicable from April 1, 2023, which includes following ammendments:

Ind AS 1 - Presentation of Financial Statements

The amendments require companies to disclose their material accounting policies rather than their significant accounting policies. Accounting policy information, together with other information, is material when it can reasonably be expected to influence decisions of primary users of general purpose financial statements. The Company does not expect this amendment to have any significant impact in its financial statements.

goods sold and services rendered is net of variable consideration on account of various discounts, margin, rate change etc offered by the Company as part of the contract.

The Company does not expect to have any contracts where the period between the transfer of the promised goods or services to the customer and payment by the customer exceeds one year. As a consequence, the Company does not adjust any of the transaction prices for the time value of money.

Contract balances

Trade receivables

A receivable represents the Company’s right to an amount of consideration that is unconditional (i.e., only the passage of time is required before payment of the consideration is due). Refer to accounting policies of financial assets in Section (e) - Financial instruments.

Contract liabilities

A contract liability is the obligation to transfer goods or services to a customer for which the Company has received consideration (or an amount of consideration is due) from the customer. If a customer pays consideration before the Company transfers goods or services to the customer, a contract liability is recognised when the payment is made or the payment is due (whichever is earlier). Contract liabilities are recognised as revenue when the Company performs under the contract.

Assets and liabilities arising from rights of return

Refund liabilities

The amount of revenue recognised is adjusted for expected returns, which are estimated based on the historical data. In these circumstances, a refund liability and a right to recover returned goods asset are recognised. The Company updates its estimates of refund liabilities at the end of each reporting year.

Corresponding Right of return asset represents the Company’s right to recover the goods expected to be returned by customers. The asset is measured at the former carrying amount of the inventory and a corresponding adjustment is made in cost of sales. The Company updates the measurement of the asset recorded for any revisions to its expected level of returns, as well as any additional decreases in the value of the returned products.

ii) Export benefits

Export benefits are accounted on recognition of export sales where there is reasonable assurance that the benefits will be received, and all attached conditions will be complied with. It is recognized as other operating revenue.

iii) Interest income

Interest income 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 amount of a financial asset. When 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.

However, for financial assets that have become credit-impaired subsequent to initial recognition, interest income is calculated by applying the effective interest rate to the amortised cost of the financial asset. If the asset is no longer credit-impaired, then the calculation of interest income reverts to the gross basis.

iv) Dividend income

Dividend income is recognised in profit or loss on the date on which the Company’s right to receive payment is established.

b) Property, Plant and Equipment

(i) Property, plant and equipment

The cost of an item of property, plant and equipment shall be recognised 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 the item can be measured reliably.

The initial cost of property, plant and equipment comprises its purchase price, including import duties and non-refundable purchase taxes, attributable borrowing cost and any other directly attributable costs of bringing an asset to working condition and location for its intended use and net charges on foreign exchange contracts and adjustments arising from exchange rate variations attributable to the intangible assets. It also includes the present value of the expected cost for the decommissioning and

removing of an asset and restoring the site after its use, if the recognition criteria for a provision are met.

Expenditure incurred after the property, plant and equipment have been put into operation, such as repairs and maintenance, are normally charged to the statements of profit and loss in the year in which the costs are incurred. Major inspection and overhaul expenditure is capitalised if the recognition criteria are met.

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 net within other income/other expenses in statement of profit and loss.

An item of property, plant and equipment and any significant part initially recognized is derecognized upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss arising on de-recognition of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in the statement of profit and loss, when the asset is derecognized.

The residual values, useful lives and methods of depreciation of property, plant and equipment are reviewed at each financial year end and adjusted prospectively, if appropriate.

(ii) Capital work in progress

Assets in the course of construction are capitalised in capital work in progress account. At the point when an asset is capable of operating in the manner intended by management, the cost of construction is transferred to the appropriate category of property, plant and equipment. Costs associated with the commissioning of an asset are capitalised when the asset is available for use but incapable of operating at normal levels until the period of commissioning has been completed. Capital work in progress is stated at cost, net of accumulated impairment loss, if any

(iii) Depreciation

Assets in the course of development or construction and freehold land are not depreciated. These assets are tested for impairment.

Other property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment loss, if any.

Depreciation on additions/(disposals) is provided on a pro-rata basis i.e. from/ (up to) the date on which asset is ready for use/ (disposed off).

Depreciation is provided on written down value method over the estimated useful lives of the assets and are in line with the requirements of Part C of Schedule II of the Companies Act, 2013 except certain items of furniture as detailed in next paragraph.

Depreciation is calculated on the depreciable amount, which is the cost of an asset less its residual value. Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost, less estimated residual value, of each asset on a written down value basis over its expected useful lives. The estimated useful lives are as follows:

	Buildings	30-60 years
	Computers	3 years
	Computers - Servers	6 years
	Plant and equipment	15 years
	Furniture and fixtures	5-10 years
	Vehicles	8 years
	Office equipment	5 years

The Company, based on technical assessment and management estimate, depreciates certain items of furniture over 5 years. This estimated useful life is different from the useful life prescribed in Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013.The management believes that these estimated useful lives are realistic and reflect fair approximation of the period over which the assets are likely to be used.

Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at each financial year end and changes in estimates, if any, are accounted for prospectively, if appropriate.

(iv) Subsequent expenditure

Subsequent expenditure is capitalised only if it is probable that the future economic benefits associated with the expenditure will flow to the Company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably.

c) Intangible assets and intangible assets under development

Intangible assets acquired on a standalone basis are measured on initial recognition at cost. The cost comprises purchase price, borrowing costs, and any cost directly attributable to bringing the asset to its working condition for the intended use and net charges on foreign exchange contracts and adjustments arising from exchange rate variations attributable to the intangible assets.

Following initial recognition, intangible assets are carried at cost less any accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses. Intangible assets acquired in a business combination is valued at fair value at the date of acquisition. The useful lives of intangible assets are assessed as either finite or indefinite.

Intangible assets with finite economic useful life are amortized on a written down value basis over those useful life and tested for impairment whenever there is an indication of impairment. The amortisation period and the amortisation method for an intangible asset are reviewed at least at the end of each reporting period. Changes in the expected useful life or the expected pattern of consumption of future economic benefits embodied in the asset are considered to modify the amortisation period or method, as appropriate, and are treated as changes in accounting estimates. The amortisation expense on intangible assets is recognized in the statement of profit and loss unless such expenditure forms part of carrying value of another asset.

Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are not amortised, but are tested for impairment annually or when circumstances indicate that the carrying value may be impaired, either individually or at the cash- generating unit level.

The estimated useful lives of the intangible assets are as follows:-

• Computer software	3 years
• Trademark and	5-10 years
Copyright
• Brand and Goodwill	Indefinite Life subject to
(acquired)	impairment testing
• Tenancy right and	5 years
others

An intangible asset is derecognised upon disposal (i.e., at the date the recipient obtains control) or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss arising upon derecognition of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in the statement of profit and loss when the asset is derecognised.

For indefinite life intangible assets, the assessment of indefinite life is reviewed annually to determine whether it continues, if not, it is impaired or changed prospectively basis revised estimates.

Goodwill is initially recognised based on the accounting policy for business combinations and is tested for impairment annually.

Impairment is determined for goodwill by assessing the recoverable amount of respective CGU (Cash Generating Unit) to which the goodwill relates. When the recoverable amount of the CGU is less than it’s carrying amount, an impairment loss is recognised. Impairment losses relating to goodwill cannot be reversed in future periods.

Intangible assets under development is stated at cost, net of accumulated impairment loss, if any.

Subsequent expenditure is capitalised only when it increases the future economic benefits embodied in the specific asset to which it relates.

All other expenditure, including expenditure on internally generated goodwill and brands, is recognised in profit or loss as incurred.

d) Non- current assets ‘held for sale’ and discontinued operations

The Company classifies non-current assets and disposal assets as held for sale if their carrying amounts will be recovered principally through a sale/ distribution rather than through continuing use. Actions required to complete the sale should indicate that it is unlikely that significant changes to the sale will be made or that the decision to sell will be withdrawn.

The criteria to classify an asset as ''Held for Sale’ is considered met only when the assets is available for immediate sale in its present condition, subject only to terms that are usual and customary for sales of such assets, its sale is highly probable; and it will genuinely be sold, not abandoned. The Company treats sale of the asset or to be highly probable when:

• The appropriate level of management is committed to a plan to sell the asset,

• The asset is being actively marketed for sale at a price that is reasonable in relation to its current fair value,

• The sale is expected to qualify for recognition as a completed sale within one year from the date of classification ,

• Actions required to complete the plan indicate that it is unlikely that significant changes to the plan will be made or that the plan will be withdrawn.

Non-current assets and disposal groups classified as held for sale are measured at the lower of their carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell. Costs to sell are the incremental costs directly attributable to the disposal of an asset (disposal group), excluding finance costs and income tax expense.

Property, plant and equipment and intangible assets are not depreciated, or amortised assets once classified as held for sale. Assets and liabilities classified as held for sale are presented separately from other items in the balance sheet.

e) Financial instruments

Financial assets

(i) Recognition and initial measurement of financial assets

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.

Trade receivables and debt securities issued are initially recognised when they are originated. All other financial assets are initially recognised when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument and the contract transaction is executed.

A financial asset (unless it is a trade receivable without a significant financing component) or for which the Company has applied the practical expedient is initially measured at fair value plus or minus, for an item not at FVTPL, transaction costs that are directly attributable to its acquisition or issue. A trade receivable without a significant financing component or for which the Company has applied the practical expedient is initially measured at the transaction price determined under Ind AS 115 - “Revenue from contracts with customers”. Refer to the accounting policies in section 3(a)(i) Revenue recognition from contract with customer.

(ii) Classification and subsequent measurement of financial asset

At initial recognition, Financial assets are classified and subsequently measured at

- amortised cost,

- fair value through other comprehensive income (OCI) - debt investments,

- fair value through other comprehensive income (OCI) - equity investments and

- fair value through profit or loss.

Financial assets are not reclassified subsequent to their initial recognition unless the Company changes its business model for managing financial assets, in which case all affected financial assets are reclassified on the first day of the first reporting period following the change in the business model.

The classification of financial assets at initial recognition depends on the financial asset’s contractual cash flow characteristics and the Company’s business model for managing them.

In order for a financial asset to be classified and measured at amortised cost or fair value through OCI, it needs to give rise to cash flows that are ''solely payments of principal and interest (SPPI)’ on the principal amount outstanding. This assessment is referred to as the SPPI test and is performed at an instrument level. Financial assets with cash flows that are not SPPI are classified and measured at fair value through profit or loss, irrespective of the business model.

The Company’s business model for managing financial assets refers to how it manages its financial assets in order to generate cash flows. The business model determines whether cash flows will result from collecting contractual cash flows, selling the financial assets, or both. Financial assets classified and measured at amortised cost are held within a business model with the objective to hold financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows while financial assets classified and measured at fair value through OCI are held within a business model with the objective of both holding to collect contractual cash flows and selling.

A financial asset is measured at amortised cost if it meets both of the following conditions and is not designated as at FVTPL:

a) it is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets to collect contractual cash flows; and

b) its contractual terms give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

A ''financial asset’ is classified as at the FVTOCI if both of the following criteria are met:

a) The objective of the business model is achieved both by collecting contractual cash flows and selling the financial assets, and

b) The asset’s contractual cash flows represent SPPI.

All financial assets not classified as measured at amortised cost or FVOCI as described above are measured at FVTPL. This includes all derivative financial assets. On initial recognition, the Company may irrevocably designate a financial asset that otherwise meets the requirements to be measured at amortised cost or at FVOCI as at FVTPL if doing so eliminates or significantly reduces an accounting mismatch that would otherwise arise.

Financial assets - Subsequent measurement and gains and losses

Debt investments at FVOCI: Debt instruments included within the FVTOCI category are measured initially as well as at each reporting date at fair value. For debt instruments, at fair value through OCI, interest income, foreign exchange revaluation and impairment losses or reversals are recognised in the profit or loss and computed in the same manner as for financial assets measured at amortised cost. The remaining fair value changes are recognised in OCI. Upon derecognition, the cumulative fair value changes recognised in OCI is reclassified from the equity to profit or loss.

The Company’s debt instruments at fair value through OCI includes investments in quoted debt instruments.

Financial assets at FVTPL: Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are carried in the balance sheet at fair value with net changes in fair value including any interest or dividend income are recognised in the Statement of Profits and Losses.

Financial assets at amortised cost: These assets are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. The amortised cost is reduced by impairment losses. Interest income, foreign exchange gains and losses and impairment are recognised in profit or loss. Any gain or loss on derecognition is recognised in profit or loss.

(iii) Derecognition of financial assets

The Company derecognizes a financial asset when

• the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire; or,

• it transfers the rights to receive the contractual cash flows in a transaction in which either:

- substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are transferred; or

- the Company neither transfers nor retains substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership and it does not retain control of the financial asset.

Purchases or sales of financial assets that require delivery of assets within a time frame established by regulation or convention in the marketplace (regular way trades) are recognised on the trade date, i.e., the date that the Company commits to purchase or sell the asset.

Financial liabilities

(i) Recognition and initial measurement of financial Liabilities

Financial liabilities are initially recognised when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

Financial liability is initially measured at fair value plus or minus, for an item not at FVTPL, transaction costs that are directly attributable to its acquisition or issue.

(ii) Classification and subsequent measurement and gains and losses on financial Liabilities

Financial liabilities are classified as measured at amortised cost or FVTPL. A financial liability is classified as at FVTPL if it is classified as held-for-trading, it is a derivative or it is designated as such on initial recognition. Financial liabilities at FVTPL are measured at fair value and net gains and losses, including any interest expense, are recognised in profit or loss. Other financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Interest expense and foreign exchange gains and losses are recognised in profit or loss. Any gain or loss on derecognition is also recognised in profit or loss.

The Company’s financial liabilities include trade and other payables, loans and borrowings including bank overdrafts and derivative financial instruments.

(iii) Derecognition of financial liabilities

A financial liability (or part of a financial liability) is derecognized from the Company’s Balance Sheet when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged or cancelled or expires. The Company also derecognises a financial liability when its terms are modified and the cash flows of the modified liability are substantially different, in which case a new financial liability based on the modified terms is recognised at fair value.

On derecognition of a financial liability, the difference between the carrying amount extinguished and the consideration paid (including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed) is recognised in profit or loss.

Investment in subsidiary

Investment in subsidiaries are carried at cost.

Impairment of financial assets

At each reporting date, the Company assess whether

financial assets, than those at FVTPL are credit impaired.

A financial asset is ''credit- impaired’ when one or more events that have a detrimental impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset have occurred.

Evidence that a financial asset is credit-impaired includes the following observable data:

• significant financial difficulty of the borrower or issuer;

• a breach of contract such as a default or being past due for 90 days or more; or

• it is probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganization.

The Company recognises loss allowances using the expected credit losses (ECL) model for the financial assets which are fair valued through profit or loss.

The amount of expected credit losses (or reversal) that is required to adjust the loss allowance at the reporting date to the amount that is required to be recognised is recognised as an impairment gain or loss in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

In case of trade receivables, the Company follows the simplified approach permitted by Ind AS 109 Financial Instruments for recognition of impairment loss allowance. The application of simplified approach does not require the Company to track changes in credit risk. The Company calculates the expected credit losses on trade receivables using a provision matrix on the basis of its historical credit loss experience.

For all other financial assets, expected credit losses are measured unless there has been a significant increase in credit risk from initial recognition in which case those are measured at lifetime ECL.

When determining whether the credit risk of a financial asset has increased significantly since initial recognition and when estimating expected credit losses, the Company considers reasonable and supportable information that is relevant and available without undue cost or effort. This includes both quantitative and qualitative information and analysis, based on the Company’s historical experience and informed credit assessment and including forward-looking information.

Write-off

The gross carrying amount of a financial asset is written off (either partially or in full) to the extent that there is no realistic prospect of recovery. This is generally the case when the Company determines that the debtor does not have assets or sources of income that could generate sufficient cash flows to repay the amounts subject to the write off. However, financial assets that are written off could still be subject to enforcement activities in order to comply with the Company’s procedures for recovery of amounts due.

Offsetting

Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount presented in the balance sheet when, and only when, the Company currently has a legally enforceable right to set off the amounts and it intends either to settle them on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

f) Derivative financial instruments

Initial recognition and subsequent measurement

The Company uses derivative financial instruments, such as forward currency contracts to hedge its foreign currency risks. Derivatives are carried as financial assets when the fair value is positive and as financial liabilities when the fair value is negative. Derivatives are designated upon initial recognition at fair value through profit or loss only if the criteria in Ind AS 109 are satisfied.

Derivatives are initially measured at fair value. Subsequent to initial recognition, derivatives are measured at fair value, and changes therein are generally recognised in profit or loss.

There is no other hedge instrument in the Company.

g) Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents in the balance sheet comprise cash at banks and on hand and short-term deposits with an original maturity of three months or less, which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.

For the purpose of the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and short-term deposits, as defined above.

h) Borrowing Costs

Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of an asset that necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use or sale are capitalised as part of the cost of the asset. All other borrowing costs are expensed in the period in which they occur. Borrowing costs consist of interest and other costs that an entity incurs in connection with the borrowing of funds. Borrowing cost also includes exchange differences to the extent regarded as an adjustment to the borrowing costs.

i) Inventories

a. Raw materials, accessories and packing material are valued at lower of cost and net realisable value. However, materials and other items held for use in the production of inventories are not written down below cost if the finished products in which they will be incorporated are expected to be sold at or above

cost. Cost of raw materials, accessories and packing material is determined on First-in-First-out basis.

b. Work-in-progress and finished goods are valued at lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost includes direct materials, labour and a proportion of manufacturing overheads (where applicable). Cost of finished goods is determined on weighted average basis using retail method.

c. Traded goods are valued at lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost includes cost of purchase and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. Cost is determined on weighted average method.

d. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less estimated costs of completion and estimated costs necessary to make the sale.

e. The net realisable value of work-in-progress is determined with reference to the selling prices of related finished goods. Raw materials, components and other supplies held for use in the production of finished products are not written down below cost except in cases when a decline in the price of materials indicates that the cost of the finished products shall exceed the net realisable value.

f. The comparison of cost and net realisable value is made on an item-by-Item basis

g. Obsolete, slow moving and defective inventories are identified and written down to net realisable value.

j) Leases

Company as a lessee

The Company’s lease asset classes primarily consist of leases for commercial spaces and leasehold building. The Company assesses whether a contract is or contains a lease, at inception of a contract. A contract is, or contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. To assess whether a contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset, the Company assesses whether:

(i) the contract involves the use of an identified asset

(ii) the Company has substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the asset through the period of the lease and

(iii) the Company has the right to direct the use of the asset.

At the date of commencement of the lease, the Company recognises a right-of-use asset (“ROU”) and a corresponding lease liability for all lease arrangements in which it is a lessee, except for leases with a term of twelve months or less (short term leases) and leases of low value assets based on the recognition exemption criteria. For these short term and leases of low value assets, the Company recognises the lease payments as an operating expense on a straight line basis over the term of the lease.

The right-of-use assets are initially recognised at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or prior to the commencement date of the lease plus any initial direct costs less any lease incentives. They are subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, if any. Right-of-use assets are depreciated from the commencement date on a straightline basis over the shorter of the lease term and useful life of the underlying asset, unless the lease transfers ownership of the underlying asset to the Company by the end of the lease term or the cost of the right-of-use asset reflects that the Company will exercise a purchase option. The lease liability is measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.. The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if not readily determinable, using the incremental borrowing rates. The lease liability is subsequently remeasured by increasing the carrying amount to reflect interest on the lease liability, reducing the carrying amount to reflect the lease payments made.

A lease liability is remeasured upon the occurrence of certain events such as a change in the lease term or a change in an index or rate, if there is a change in the Company’s estimate of the amount expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee, if the Company changes its assessment of whether it will exercise a purchase, extension or termination option or if there is a revised insubstance fixed lease payment lease payments. When the lease liability is remeasured in this way, a corresponding adjustment is made to the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset, or is recorded in profit or loss if the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset has been reduced to zero.

Lease liability and ROU asset have been separately presented in the balance sheet and lease payments have been classified as financing cash flows.

Leasehold land which is part of right of use asset is amortised over the period of lease i.e. 99 years.

The Ministry of Corporate Affairs vide notification dated July 24, 2020, issued an amendment to Ind AS 116 - Leases, by inserting a practical expedient w.r.t. “Covld-19-Related Rent concessions” effective from the period beginning on

or after April 01, 2020. As a practical expedient, a lessee may elect not to assess whether a rent concession that meets the conditions in paragraph 46B of Ind AS 116 is a lease modification. Pursuant to the notification, the Company has applied the practical expedient with effect from April 01, 2020 and hence rent concession received during the year has been recognised as other income

Company as a lessor

Leases in which the Company does not transfer substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of an asset is classified as operating leases. Rental income arising is accounted for on a straight-line basis over the lease terms. Initial direct costs incurred in negotiating and arranging an operating lease are added to the carrying amount of the leased asset and recognised over the lease term on the same basis as rental income. Contingent rents are recognised as revenue in the period in which they are earned.

Leases are classified as finance leases when substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership transfer from the Company to the lessee. Amounts due from lessees under finance leases are recorded as receivables at the Company’s net investment in the leases. Finance lease income is allocated to accounting periods so as to reflect a constant periodic rate of return on the net investment outstanding in respect of the lease.

k) Taxation

Income tax expense comprises current and deferred tax. It is recognised in profit or loss except to the extent that it relates to a business combination, or items recognised directly in equity or in Other comprehensive income.

Current income tax

Current income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted or substantively enacted, at the reporting date.

Current income tax relating to items recognized outside profit or loss is recognized outside profit or loss (either in other comprehensive income or in equity). Current tax items are recognized in correlation to the underlying transaction either in Other Comprehensive Income or directly in equity. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in the tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulations are subject to interpretation and establishes provisions where appropriate.

Current tax assets and liabilities are offset only if there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts, and it is intended to realise the asset and settle the liability on a net basis or simultaneously.

Deferred tax

Deferred tax is provided on temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes at the reporting date.

Deferred tax is recognised for all taxable temporary differences, except:

- Taxable temporary difference arising from the initial recognition of goodwill

- Temporary difference on initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss

- Temporary difference related to investments in subsidiary to the extent that the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences can be controlled and it is probable that the temporary differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future

Temporary differences in relation to a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for a specific lease are regarded as a net package (the lease) for the purpose of recognising deferred tax.

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred tax asset to be utilised. Unrecognized deferred tax assets are re-assessed at each reporting date and are recognized to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profits will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the year when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.

Deferred tax relating to items recognized outside profit or loss is recognized outside profit or loss (either in other comprehensive income or in equity). Deferred tax items are recognized in correlation to the underlying transaction either in Other Comprehensive Income or directly in equity.

The Company offsets deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities if and only if it has a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets and current tax liabilities and the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities which intend either to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis, or to realize the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously, in each future year in which

significant amounts of deferred tax liabilities or assets are expected to be settled or recovered.

Appendix C to Ind AS 12 Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatment

The appendix addresses the accounting for income taxes when tax treatments involve uncertainty that affects the application of Ind AS 12 Income Taxes. It does not apply to taxes or levies outside the scope of Ind AS 12, nor does it specifically include requirements relating to interest and penalties associated with uncertain tax treatments. The Company determines whether to consider each uncertain tax treatment separately or together with one or more other uncertain tax treatments and uses the approach that better predicts the resolution of the uncertainty. The Appendix did not have a significant impact on the Standalone financial statements of the Company.

l) Employee benefit schemes

i) Short-term employee benefits

Short-term employee benefits are measured on an undiscounted basis and expensed as the related service is provided. A liability is recognised for the amount expected to be paid under short-term cash bonus, if the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation to pay this amount as a result of past service provided by the employee and the obligation can be estimated reliably

ii) Post employment benefits

Defined Contribution Plans

A defined contribution plan is a post-employment benefit plan where the Company’s legal or constructive obligation is limited to the amount that it contributes to a separate legal entity.

The Company has defined contribution plans for post-employment benefits such as Provident Fund, National Pension Scheme, Employee’s State Insurance and Employee’s Pension Scheme, 1995. The Company contributes to a government administered Provident Fund, state plan namely Employee’s Pension Scheme, 1995, Employee’s State Insurance Scheme and National Pension Scheme on behalf of its employees and has no further obligation beyond making its contribution. The Company’s contributions to the above funds are recognised in the statement of profit and loss for the year.

Defined Benefit Plans

The Company has defined benefit plan namely gratuity for all its employees. Liability for defined benefit plan is provided based on valuations, as at the balance sheet date, carried out by an independent

actuary. The actuarial valuation method used by the independent actuary for measuring the liability is the projected unit credit method. Actuarial losses and gains are recognised in other comprehensive income and shall not be reclassified to the statement of profit and loss in a subsequent year. Changes in the present value of the defined benefit obligation resulting from plan amendments or curtailments are recognised immediately in the statement of profit or loss as past service costs.

iii) Share-Based Payments

Selected employees of the Company receive part of their remuneration through share-based payments in consideration for the services rendered. The fair value of the options at the grant date is calculated by an independent valuer based on Black Scholes model.

Related costs are recognized as employee benefit expense that are correspondingly credited to share-based payment (SBP) reserves as part of Total Equity, over the period in which the performance and/or service conditions are fulfilled by covered employees. The cumulative expense recognized for equity-settled transactions at each reporting date until the vesting date reflects the extent to which the vesting period has expired and the Company’s best estimate of the number of equity instruments that will ultimately vest. The expense or credit in the Statement of Profits and Losses for a year represents the movement in cumulative expense recognized as at the beginning and end of that year and is recognized in employee benefits expense.

Service and non-market performance conditions are not taken into account when determining the grant date fair value of awards, but the likelihood of the conditions being met is assessed as part of the Company’s best estimate of the number of equity instruments that will ultimately vest. Market performance conditions are reflected within the grant date fair value. Any other conditions attached to an award, but without an associated service requirement, are considered to be non-vesting conditions. Non-vesting conditions are reflected in the fair value of an award and lead to an immediate expensing of an award unless there are also service and/or performance conditions.

No expense is recognized for awards that do not ultimately vest because non-market performance and/or service conditions have not been met. Where awards include a market or non-vesting condition, the transactions are treated as vested irrespective of whether the market or non-vesting condition is satisfied, provided that all other performance and/or service conditions are satisfied.

iv) Termination benefits are recognised as an expense as and when incurred.

m) Foreign currency transactions

In the standalone financial statements of the Company, transactions in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rates ruling at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in other currencies are translated into the functional currency at exchange rates prevailing on the reporting date. Nonmonetary assets and liabilities denominated in other currencies and measured at historical cost or fair value are translated at the exchange rates prevailing on the dates on which such values were determined.

All exchange differences are included in the statement of profit and loss except any exchange differences on monetary items designated as an effective hedging instrument of the currency risk of designated forecasted sales or purchases, which are recognized in the other comprehensive income.

n) Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net profit or loss for the year attributable to equity shareholders by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year. Earnings considered in ascertaining the Company’s earnings per share is the net profit for the year. The weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year and for all years presented is adjusted for events (such as bonus shares), split if any other than the conversion of potential equity shares that have changed the number of equity shares outstanding without a corresponding change in resources. For calculating diluted earnings per share, the net profit or loss for the year attributable to equity shareholders and the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period are adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potential equity shares.

In a capitalisation or bonus issue or a share split, ordinary shares are issued to existing shareholders for no additional consideration. Therefore, the number of ordinary shares outstanding is increased without an increase in resources. The number of ordinary shares outstanding before the event is adjusted for the proportionate change in the number of ordinar

1. COMPANY OVERVIEW

Vedant Fashions Limited (formerly known as Vedant Fashions Private Limited) (the Company) is a public Company domiciled in India and was incorporated on May 24, 2002 under the provisions of the Companies Act applicable in India. The Company is primarily engaged in manufacturing, trading and sale of readymade ethnic wear for men, women and kids primarily in India under the brand names Manyavar, Mohey, Mebaz, Twamev and Manthan.

Registered and corporate office of the Company is located at Paridhan Garment Park, 19 Canal South Road, SDF 1, 4th floor, A501-A502, Kolkata- 700015.

The Company was converted into a public limited Company under the Companies Act, 2013 on August 25, 2021 and consequently, the name was changed to "Vedant Fashions Limited”.

2. BASIS OF PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

a) Basis of preparation

These financial statements of the company, have been prepared in accordance with requirements of Indian Accounting Standard, as prescribed under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 (''Act'') read with Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules 2015, as amended, and other accounting principles generally accepted in India and presentation requirements of Division II of Schedule III of the Act (as amended).

These Financial Statement are presented in Indian Rupees "INR" or "Rs.” and all values are stated as INR millions, unless indicated otherwise.

These notes provide a list of the significant accounting policies adopted in the preparation of these standalone Financial Statement. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated.

These standalone Financial Statement have been prepared under the historical cost convention on the accrual basis except the following assets and liabilities which have been measured at fair value as required by the relevant Indian Accounting Standards:-

a) Certain financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value (refer accounting policies regarding financial instruments)

b) Defined employee benefit plans

b) Basis of fair value measurement

The Company measures financial instruments, such as, derivatives at fair value at each Balance Sheet date. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value measurement is based on the presumption that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability takes place either:

• In the principal market for the asset or liability, or

• In the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the asset or liability

The principal or the most advantageous market must be accessible by the Company.

The fair value of an asset or a liability is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, assuming that market participants act in their best economic interest.

A fair value measurement of a non-financial asset takes into account a market participant''s ability to generate economic benefits by using the asset in its highest and best use or by selling it to another market participant that would use the asset in its highest and best use.

The Company uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available to measure fair value, maximizing the use of relevant observable inputs and minimizing the use of unobservable inputs.

All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the financial statements are categorized within the fair value hierarchy, described as follows, based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole:

Level 1 — Quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

Level 2 — Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is directly or indirectly observable

Level 3 — Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is unobservable

For assets and liabilities that are recognised in the financial statements on a recurring basis, the Company determines whether transfers have occurred between levels in the hierarchy by reassessing categorisation (based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole) at the end of each reporting year.

At each reporting date, the Company analyses the movements in the values of assets and liabilities which are required to be remeasured or re-assessed as per the Company''s accounting policies. For this analysis, the Company verifies the major inputs applied in the latest valuation by agreeing the information in the valuation computation to contracts and other relevant documents.

The Company also compares the change in the fair value of each asset and liability with relevant external sources to determine whether the change is reasonable.

For the purpose of fair value disclosures, the Company has determined classes of assets and liabilities on the basis of the nature, characteristics and risks of the asset or liability and the level of the fair value hierarchy as explained above.

This note summarises accounting policy for fair value. Other fair value related disclosures are given in the relevant notes.

- Disclosures for valuation methods, significant estimates and assumptions (Note 52)

- Quantitative disclosures of fair value

measurement hierarchy (Note 47)

- Investment in unquoted equity shares (Note 6)

- Property, plant and equipment (Note 4)

- Financial instruments (including those carried at amortised cost) (Note 46)

Fair value for measurement and /or disclosure purpose in these financial statements is determined on such a basis, except for leasing transactions that are within the scope of Ind AS 116, and measurements that have some similarities to fair value, such as net realisable value in Ind AS 2 - "Inventories” or value in use in Ind AS 36 - "Impairment of assets”.

c) Functional and presentation currency

These Ind AS financial statements are prepared in Indian Rupee Million and has been rounded to the nearest Million with two decimals unless otherwise indicated..

d) Recent Accounting Developments

Ministry of Corporate Affairs ("MCA”) notifies new standard or amendments to the existing standards. There is no such notification which would have been applicable from July 1, 2021.

MCA issued notifications dated March 24, 2021 to amend Schedule III to the Companies Act, 2013 to enhance the disclosures required to be made

by the Company in its financial statements. These amendments are applicable to the Company for the financial year starting April 1, 2021. Consequent to amendments to the Schedule III to the Companies Act, 2013, The Company has disclosed all the relevant information for the current year ended March 31, 2022 and previous year ended March 31, 2021.

New and amended standards

Ind AS 116: COVID-19 related rent concessions

MCA issued an amendment to Ind AS 116 Covid-19-Related Rent Concessions beyond June 30, 2021 to update the condition for lessees to apply the relief to a reduction in lease payments originally due on or before June 30, 2022 from June 30, 2021. The amendment applies to annual reporting periods beginning on or after April 1, 2021.

3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Company has applied following accounting policies to all reporting years presented in these Ind AS financial statements.

a) i) Revenue recognition from contract with customer

Revenue from sale of goods is recognised when control of the products being sold is transferred to our customer and when there are no longer any unfulfilled obligations and that reflects the consideration to which the Company expect to be entitled to in exchange of products. The disclosures of significant accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions relating to revenue from contracts with customers are provided in Note 53.

The performance obligations in our contracts are fulfilled at the time of delivery or upon formal customer acceptance depending on customer terms where the Company acts as principal

Revenue is measured at fair value of the consideration received or receivable, after deduction of any trade discounts, volume rebates and any taxes or duties collected on behalf of the government such as goods and services tax, etc. Revenue is only recognised to the extent that it is highly probable and a significant reversal will not occur.

The Company does not expect to have any contracts where the period between the transfer of the promised goods or services to the customer and payment by the customer exceeds

one year. As a consequence, the Company does not adjust any of the transaction prices for the time value of money.

Contract balances

Trade receivables

A receivable represents the Company''s right to an amount of consideration that is unconditional (i.e., only the passage of time is required before payment of the consideration is due). Refer to accounting policies of financial assets in Section e - Financial instruments.

Contract liabilities

A contract liability is the obligation to transfer goods or services to a customer for which the Company has received consideration (or an amount of consideration is due) from the customer. If a customer pays consideration before the Company transfers goods or services to the customer, a contract liability is recognised when the payment is made or the payment is due (whichever is earlier). Contract liabilities are recognised as revenue when the Company performs under the contract.

Assets and liabilities arising from rights of return

Refund liabilities

A refund liability is the obligation to refund some or all of the consideration received (or receivable) from the customer and is measured at the amount the Company ultimately expects it will have to return to the customer. The Company updates its estimates of refund liabilities at the end of each reporting year.

Corresponding Right of return asset represents the Company''s right to recover the goods expected to be returned by customers. The asset is measured at the former carrying amount of the inventory and a corresponding adjustment is made in cost of sales. The Company updates the measurement of the asset recorded for any revisions to its expected level of returns, as well as any additional decreases in the value of the returned products.

ii) Export benefits

Export benefits are accounted on recognition of export sales where there is reasonable assurance that the benefits will be received, and all attached conditions will be complied with.

iii) Interest income

Interest income 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 amount of a financial asset. When 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.

iv) Dividend income

Dividend income is recognized when the right to receive payment is established, provided it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the dividend will flow to the Company, and the amount of the dividend can be measured reliably.

b) Property, Plant and Equipment

(i) Property, plant and equipment

The initial cost of property, plant and equipment comprises its purchase price, including import duties and non-refundable purchase taxes, attributable borrowing cost and any other directly attributable costs of bringing an asset to working condition and location for its intended use and net charges on foreign exchange contracts and adjustments arising from exchange rate variations attributable to the intangible assets. It also includes the present value of the expected cost for the decommissioning and removing of an asset and restoring the site after its use, if the recognition criteria for a provision are met.

Expenditure incurred after the property, plant and equipment have been put into operation, such as repairs and maintenance, are normally charged to the statements of profit and loss in the year in which the costs are incurred. Major inspection and overhaul expenditure is capitalised if the recognition criteria are met.

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 net within other income/other expenses in statement of profit and loss.

An item of property, plant and equipment and any significant part initially recognized is derecognized upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss arising on de-recognition of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in the statement of profit and loss, when the asset is derecognized.

The residual values, useful lives and methods of depreciation of property, plant and equipment are reviewed at each financial year end and adjusted prospectively, if appropriate.

(ii) Capital work in progress

Assets in the course of construction are capitalised in capital work in progress account. At the point when an asset is capable of operating in the manner intended by management, the cost of construction is transferred to the appropriate category of property, plant and equipment. Costs associated with the commissioning of an asset are capitalised when the asset is available for use but incapable of operating at normal levels until the period of commissioning has been completed. Capital work in progress is stated at cost, net of accumulated impairment loss, if any

(iii) Depreciation

Assets in the course of development or construction and freehold land are not depreciated. These assets are tested for impairment.

Other property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment loss, if any. Depreciation commences when the assets are ready for their intended use.

Depreciation is provided on written down value method over the estimated useful lives of the assets and are in line with the requirements of Part C of Schedule II of the Companies Act, 2013 except certain items of furniture as detailed in next paragraph.

Depreciation is calculated on the depreciable amount, which is the cost of an asset less its residual value. Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost, less estimated residual value, of each asset on a written down value basis over its expected useful lives. The estimated useful lives are as follows:

	Buildings	30-60 years
	Computers	3 years
	Computers - Servers	6 years
	Plant and equipment	15 years
	Furniture and fixtures	5-10 years
	Vehicles	8 years
	Office equipment	5 years

The Company, based on technical assessment and management estimate, depreciates certain items of furniture over 5 years. These estimated useful life is different from the useful life prescribed in Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013The management believes that these estimated useful lives are realistic and reflect fair approximation of the period over which the assets are likely to be used.

Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at each financial year end and changes in estimates, if any, are accounted for prospectively, if appropriate.

c) Intangible assets and intangible assets under development

Intangible assets acquired on a standalone basis are measured on initial recognition at cost. The cost comprises purchase price, borrowing costs, and any cost directly attributable to bringing the asset to its working condition for the intended use and net charges on foreign exchange contracts and adjustments arising from exchange rate variations attributable to the intangible assets.

Following initial recognition, intangible assets are carried at cost less any accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses. Intangible assets acquired in a business combination is valued at fair value at the date of acquisition. The useful lives of intangible assets are assessed as either finite or indefinite.

Intangible assets with finite economic useful life are amortized over those useful life and tested for impairment whenever there is an indication of impairment. The amortisation period and the amortisation method for an intangible asset are reviewed at least at the end of each reporting period. Changes in the expected useful life or the expected pattern of consumption of future economic benefits embodied in the asset are considered to modify the amortisation period or method, as appropriate,

and are treated as changes in accounting estimates. The amortisation expense on intangible assets is recognized in the statement of profit and loss unless such expenditure forms part of carrying value of another asset.

Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are not amortised, but are tested for impairment annually, either individually or at the cash- generating unit level and when circumstances indicate that the carrying value may be impaired.

The estimated useful lives of the intangible assets are as follows:-

• Computer software 3 years

• Trademark and Copyright 5-10 years

• Brand and Goodwill (acquired)

Indefinite Life subject to impairment testing

• Tenancy right and others 5 years

An intangible asset is derecognised upon disposal (i.e., at the date the recipient obtains control) or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss arising upon derecognition of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in the statement of profit and loss when the asset is derecognised.

For indefinite life intangible assets, the assessment of indefinite life is reviewed annually to determine whether it continues, if not, it is impaired or changed prospectively basis revised estimates.

Goodwill is initially recognised based on the accounting policy for business combinations and is tested for impairment annually.

Impairment is determined for goodwill by assessing the recoverable amount of respective CGU (Cash Generating Unit) to which the goodwill relates. When the recoverable amount of the CGU is less than it''s carrying amount, an impairment loss is recognised. Impairment losses relating to goodwill cannot be reversed in future periods.

Intangible assets under development is stated at cost, net of accumulated impairment loss, if any.

d) Non- current assets ''held for sale'' and discontinued operations

The Company classifies non-current assets and disposal assets as held for sale if their carrying amounts will be recovered principally through a sale/ distribution rather than through continuing use. Actions required to complete the sale should indicate that it is unlikely that significant changes to

the sale will be made or that the decision to sell will be withdrawn.

The criteria to classify an asset as ''Held for Sale'' is considered met only when the assets is available for immediate sale in its present condition, subject only to terms that are usual and customary for sales of such assets, its sale is highly probable; and it will genuinely be sold, not abandoned. The Company treats sale of the asset or to be highly probable when:

• The appropriate level of management is committed to a plan to sell the asset,

• The asset is being actively marketed for sale at a price that is reasonable in relation to its current fair value,

• The sale is expected to qualify for recognition as a completed sale within one year from the date of classification ,

• Actions required to complete the plan indicate that it is unlikely that significant changes to the plan will be made or that the plan will be withdrawn.

Non-current assets and disposal groups classified as held for sale are measured at the lower of their carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell. Costs to sell are the incremental costs directly attributable to the disposal of an asset (disposal group), excluding finance costs and income tax expense.

Property, plant and equipment and intangible are not depreciated, or amortised assets once classified as held for sale. Assets and liabilities classified as held for sale are presented separately from other items in the balance sheet.

e) Financial instruments

Initial recognition and measurement

i. Financial assets

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 are classified, at initial recognition, and subsequently measured at amortised cost, fair value through other comprehensive income (OCI), and fair value through profit or loss.

The classification of financial assets at initial recognition depends on the financial asset''s contractual cash flow characteristics and the Company''s business model for managing them. With the exception of trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component or

for which the Company has applied the practical expedient, the Company initially measures a financial asset at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial asset not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs. Trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component or for which the Company has applied the practical expedient are measured at the transaction price determined under Ind AS 115 - "Revenue from contracts with customers”. Refer to the accounting policies in section 3(a)(i) Revenue recognition from contract with customer.

In order for a financial asset to be classified and measured at amortised cost or fair value through OCI, it needs to give rise to cash flows that are ''solely payments of principal and interest (SPPI)'' on the principal amount outstanding. This assessment is referred to as the SPPI test and is performed at an instrument level. Financial assets with cash flows that are not SPPI are classified and measured at fair value through profit or loss, irrespective of the business model.

The Company''s business model for managing financial assets refers to how it manages its financial assets in order to generate cash flows. The business model determines whether cash flows will result from collecting contractual cash flows, selling the financial assets, or both. Financial assets classified and measured at amortised cost are held within a business model with the objective to hold financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows while financial assets classified and measured at fair value through OCI are held within a business model with the objective of both holding to collect contractual cash flows and selling.

A ''financial asset'' is classified as at the FVTOCI if both of the following criteria are met:

a) The objective of the business model is achieved both by collecting contractual cash flows and selling the financial assets, and

b) The asset''s contractual cash flows represent SPPI.

Debt instruments included within the FVTOCI category are measured initially as well as at each reporting date at fair value. For debt instruments, at fair value through OCI, interest income, foreign exchange revaluation and impairment losses or reversals are recognised in the profit or loss and computed in the same manner as for financial assets measured at amortised cost. The

remaining fair value changes are recognised in OCI. Upon derecognition, the cumulative fair value changes recognised in OCI is reclassified from the equity to profit or loss.

The Company''s debt instruments at fair value through OCI includes investments in quoted debt instruments.

Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are carried in the balance sheet at fair value with net changes in fair value recognised in the Statement of Profits and Losses.

Purchases or sales of financial assets that require delivery of assets within a time frame established by regulation or convention in the marketplace (regular way trades) are recognised on the trade date, i.e., the date that the Company commits to purchase or sell the asset.

ii. Financial liabilities

Financial liabilities are classified, at initial recognition, as financial liabilities at fair value through statement of profit and loss, loans and 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 loans and borrowings and payables, net of directly attributable transaction costs.

The Company''s financial liabilities include trade and other payables, loans and borrowings including bank overdrafts and derivative financial instruments.

Classification and subsequent measurement

i. Financial assets

The Company classifies its financial assets in the following measurement categories:

(i) those to be measured at fair value through profit or loss;

(ii) those to be measured at fair value through other comprehensive income;

(iii) those measured at amortised cost

The classification depends on the Company''s business model for managing the financial assets and the contractual terms of the cash flows. Financial assets are not reclassified subsequent to their recognition, except

during the year the Company changes its business model for managing financial assets.

Realised and unrealised gains/ losses arising from changes in the fair value of the "financial assets at fair value through profit or loss” investment category are included in the statement of profit and loss in the year in which they arise and " Changes in fair value of investments” are included in the Other comprehensive income for the year

ii. Financial liabilities

Financial liabilities are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method. For trade and other payables, the carrying amounts represents the fair value due to the short maturity of these instruments. Realised and unrealised gains/ losses arising from changes in the fair value of the "financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss” are included in the statement of profit and loss in the period in which they arise.

iii. Investment in subsidiary

Investment in subsidiaries are carried at cost.

Derecognition of financial instruments

The Company derecognizes a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire or it transfers the financial asset and the transfer qualifies for derecognition under Ind AS 109-''Financial Instruments''. A financial liability (or part of a financial liability) is derecognized from the Company''s Balance Sheet when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged or cancelled or expires.

Impairment of financial assets

The Company assesses on a forward-looking basis the expected credit losses associated with its assets carried at amortised cost. The impairment methodology applied depends on whether there has been a significant increase in the credit risk. For trade receivables, the Company applies the simplified approach permitted by Ind AS 109- ''Financial Instruments'', which requires expected lifetime losses to be recognised from initial recognition of the receivables.

Reclassification of financial assets

The Company determines classification of financial assets and liabilities on initial recognition. After initial recognition, no reclassification is made for financial assets which are equity instruments and financial liabilities. For financial assets which are debt instruments, a reclassification is made only if there is a change in the business model for managing those assets. Changes to the business model are expected to be infrequent. The Company''s management determines change in the business model as a result of external or internal changes which are significant to the Company''s operations.

f) Derivative financial instruments

Initial recognition and subsequent measurement

The Company uses derivative financial instruments, such as forward currency contracts to hedge its foreign currency risks. Derivatives are carried as financial assets when the fair value is positive and as financial liabilities when the fair value is negative. Derivatives are designated upon initial recognition at fair value through profit or loss only if the criteria in Ind AS 109 are satisfied.

Any gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value of derivatives are taken directly to profit or loss, except for the effective portion of cash flow hedges, which is recognised in OCI and later reclassified to profit or loss when the hedge item affects profit or loss or treated as basis adjustment if a hedged forecast transaction subsequently results in the recognition of a non-financial asset or non-financial liability.

For the purpose of hedge accounting, hedges are classified as:

- Fair value hedges when hedging the exposure to changes in the fair value of a recognised asset or liability or an unrecognised firm commitment

- Cash flow hedges when hedging the exposure to variability in cash flows that is either attributable to a particular risk associated with a recognised asset or liability or a highly probable forecast transaction or the foreign currency risk in an unrecognised firm commitment

There is no other hedge instrument in the Company

g) Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents in the balance sheet comprise cash at banks and on hand and short-term deposits with an original maturity of three months or less, which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.

For the purpose of the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and short-term deposits, as defined above.

h) Borrowing Costs

Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of an asset that necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use or sale are capitalised as part of the cost of the asset. All other borrowing costs are expensed in the period in which they occur. Borrowing costs consist of interest and other costs that an entity incurs in connection with the borrowing of funds. Borrowing cost also includes exchange differences to the extent regarded as an adjustment to the borrowing costs.

i) Inventories

a. Raw materials, accessories and packing material are valued at lower of cost and net realisable value. However, materials and other items held for use in the production of inventories are not written down below cost if the finished products in which they will be incorporated are expected to be sold at or above cost. Cost of raw materials, accessories and packing material is determined on First-in-First-out basis.

b. Work-in-progress and finished goods are valued at lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost includes direct materials, labour and a proportion of manufacturing overheads (where applicable). Cost of finished goods is determined on weighted average basis using retail method.

c. Traded goods are valued at lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost includes cost of purchase and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. Cost is determined on weighted average method.

d. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less estimated costs of completion and estimated costs necessary to make the sale.

e. Obsolete, slow moving and defective inventories are identified and written down to net realisable

j) Leases

Company as a lessee

The Company''s lease asset classes primarily consist of leases for commercial spaces and leasehold building. The Company assesses whether a contract is or contains a lease, at inception of a contract. A contract is, or contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. To assess whether a contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset, the Company assesses whether:

(i) the contract involves the use of an identified asset

(ii) the Company has substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the asset through the period of the lease and

(iii) the Company has the right to direct the use of the asset.

At the date of commencement of the lease, the Company recognises a right-of-use asset ("ROU”) and a corresponding lease liability for all lease arrangements in which it is a lessee, except for leases with a term of twelve months or less (short term leases) and leases of low value assets based on the recognition exemption criteria. For these short term and leases of low value assets, the Company recognises the lease payments as an operating expense on a straight line basis over the term of the lease.

The right-of-use assets are initially recognised at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or prior to the commencement date of the lease plus any initial direct costs less any lease incentives. They are subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, if any. Right-of-use assets are depreciated from the commencement date on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease term and useful life of the underlying asset. The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the future lease payments. The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if not readily determinable, using the incremental borrowing rates. The lease liability is subsequently remeasured by increasing the carrying amount to reflect interest on the lease liability, reducing the carrying amount to reflect the lease payments made.

A lease liability is remeasured upon the occurrence of certain events such as a change in the lease term or a change in an index or rate used to determine lease

payments. The remeasurement normally also adjusts the leased assets.

Lease liability and ROU asset have been separately presented in the balance sheet and lease payments have been classified as financing cash flows.

Leasehold land which is part of right of use asset is amortised over the period of lease i.e. 99 years.

The Ministry of Corporate Affairs vide notification dated July 24, 2020, issued an amendment to Ind AS 116 - Leases, by inserting a practical expedient w.r.t. "Covld-19-Related Rent concessions" effective from the period beginning on or after April 01, 2020. As a practical expedient, a lessee may elect not to assess whether a rent concession that meets the conditions in paragraph 46B of Ind AS 116 is a lease modification. Pursuant to the notification, the Company has applied the practical expedient with effect from April 01, 2020 and hence rent concession received during the year has been recognised as other income

Company as a lessor

Leases in which the Company does not transfer substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of an asset is classified as operating leases. Rental income arising is accounted for on a straightline basis over the lease terms. Initial direct costs incurred in negotiating and arranging an operating lease are added to the carrying amount of the leased asset and recognised over the lease term on the same basis as rental income. Contingent rents are recognised as revenue in the period in which they are earned.

Leases are classified as finance leases when substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership transfer from the Company to the lessee. Amounts due from lessees under finance leases are recorded as receivables at the Company''s net investment in the leases. Finance lease income is allocated to accounting periods so as to reflect a constant periodic rate of return on the net investment outstanding in respect of the lease.

k) Taxation

Current income tax

Current income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted or substantively enacted, at the reporting date.

Current income tax relating to items recognized outside profit or loss is recognized outside profit or loss (either in other comprehensive income

or in equity). Current tax items are recognized in correlation to the underlying transaction either in Other Comprehensive Income or directly in equity. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in the tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulations are subject to interpretation and establishes provisions where appropriate.

Deferred tax

Deferred tax is provided using the liability method on temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes at the reporting date.

Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences, except:

- When the deferred tax liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss

- In respect of taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates and interests in joint ventures, when the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences can be controlled and it is probable that the temporary differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future

Deferred tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, the carry forward of unused tax credits and any unused tax losses. Deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, and the carry forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilised, except:

- When the deferred tax asset relating to the deductible temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss

- In respect of deductible temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates and interests in joint ventures, deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that the temporary differences will reverse in the foreseeable future and taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilised

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that

it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred tax asset to be utilised. Unrecognized deferred tax assets are re-assessed at each reporting date and are recognized to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profits will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the year when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.

Deferred tax relating to items recognized outside profit or loss is recognized outside profit or loss (either in other comprehensive income or in equity). Deferred tax items are recognized in correlation to the underlying transaction either in Other Comprehensive Income or directly in equity.

The Company offsets deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities if and only if it has a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets and current tax liabilities and the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities which intend either to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis, or to realize the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously, in each future period in which significant amounts of deferred tax liabilities or assets are expected to be settled or recovered.

Appendix C to Ind AS 12 Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatment

The appendix addresses the accounting for income taxes when tax treatments involve uncertainty that affects the application of Ind AS 12 Income Taxes. It does not apply to taxes or levies outside the scope of Ind AS 12, nor does it specifically include requirements relating to interest and penalties associated with uncertain tax treatments. The Company determines whether to consider each uncertain tax treatment separately or together with one or more other uncertain tax treatments and uses the approach that better predicts the resolution of the uncertainty. The Appendix did not have a significant impact on the standalone financial statements of the Company.

l) Employee benefit schemes

i) Post employment benefits

Defined Contribution Plans

The Company has defined contribution plans for post-employment benefits such as Provident Fund, National Pension Scheme, Employee''s

State Insurance and Employee''s Pension Scheme, 1995. The Company contributes to a government administered Provident Fund, state plan namely Employee''s Pension Scheme, 1995, Employee''s State Insurance Scheme and National Pension Scheme on behalf of its employees and has no further obligation beyond making its contribution. The Company''s contributions to the above funds are recognised in the statement of profit and loss for the year.

Defined Benefit Plans

The Company has defined benefit plan namely gratuity for all its employees. Liability for defined benefit plan is provided based on valuations, as at the balance sheet date, carried out by an independent actuary. The actuarial valuation method used by the independent actuary for measuring the liability is the projected unit credit method. Actuarial losses and gains are recognised in other comprehensive income and shall not be reclassified to the statement of profit and loss in a subsequent period. Changes in the present value of the defined benefit obligation resulting from plan amendments or curtailments are recognised immediately in the statement of profit or loss as past service costs.

ii) Other Long term benefits

The Company has other long term benefits namely compensated absences for all its employees. The liabilities in respect of compensated absences which are expected to be encashed / utilised before twelve months from the balance sheet date are short term. Other such liabilities are considered long term.

iii) Share-Based Payments

Selected employees of the Company receive part of their remuneration through share-based payments in consideration for the services rendered. The fair value of the options at the grant date is calculated by an independent valuer based on Black Scholes model.

Related costs are recognized as employee benefit expense that are correspondingly credited to share-based payment (SBP) reserves as part of Total Equity, over the period in which the performance and/or service conditions are fulfilled by covered employees. The cumulative expense recognized for equity-settled transactions at each reporting date until the vesting date reflects the extent to which the vesting period has expired and the Company''s best estimate of the number of equity instruments that will ultimately vest. The expense or credit in

the Statement of Profits and Losses for a period represents the movement in cumulative expense recognized as at the beginning and end of that period and is recognized in employee benefits expense.

Service and non-market performance conditions are not taken into account when determining the grant date fair value of awards, but the likelihood of the conditions being met is assessed as part of the Company''s best estimate of the number of equity instruments that will ultimately vest. Market performance conditions are reflected within the grant date fair value. Any other conditions attached to an award, but without an associated service requirement, are considered to be non-vesting conditions. Nonvesting conditions are reflected in the fair value of an award and lead to an immediate expensing of an award unless there are also service and/or performance conditions.

No expense is recognized for awards that do not ultimately vest because non-market performance and/or service conditions have not been met. Where awards include a market or non-vesting condition, the transactions are treated as vested irrespective of whether the market or non-vesting condition is satisfied, provided that all other performance and/or service conditions are satisfied.

iv) Termination benefits are recognised as an expense as and when incurred.

m) Foreign currency transactions

In the financial statements of the Company, transactions in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rates ruling at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in other currencies are translated into the functional currency at exchange rates prevailing on the reporting date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in other currencies and measured at historical cost or fair value are translated at the exchange rates prevailing on the dates on which such values were determined.

All exchange differences are included in the statement of profit and loss except any exchange differences on monetary items designated as an effective hedging instrument of the currency risk of designated forecasted sales or purchases, which are recognized in the other comprehensive income.

n) Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net profit or loss for the period attributable to equity shareholders by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period. Earnings considered in ascertaining the Company''s earnings per share is the net profit for the period. The weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period and for all periods presented is adjusted for events (such as bonus shares), split if any other than the conversion of potential equity shares that have changed the number of equity shares outstanding without a corresponding change in resources. For calculating diluted earnings per share, the net profit or loss for the period attributable to equity shareholders and the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period are adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potential equity shares.

In a capitalisation or bonus issue or a share split, ordinary shares are issued to existing shareholders for no additional consideration. Therefore, the number of ordinary shares outstanding is increased without an increase in resources. The number of ordinary shares outstanding before the event is adjusted for the proportionate change in the number of ordinary shares outstanding as if the event had occurred at the beginning of the earliest period presented.

o) Segment Reporting

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

Based on such internal reporting, the Company is solely engaged in manufacturing, trading, and sale of branded apparels for men, women and kids. Based on the nature of business and internal reporting provided to the management for evaluation of the performance of the segment, the Company has a single reportable segment.

p) Use of Estimates and Judgments

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with Ind AS requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income, expenses and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of these financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the years presented. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions.

Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised and future periods affected.

In particular, information about significant areas of estimation uncertainty and critical judgments in applying accounting policies that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the financial statements are elaborated in Note 53.

q) Business combinations and goodwill

Business combinations, if any are accounted by using the acquisition method as per Ind AS 103 ''Business Combination''. The cost of an acquisition is measured as the aggregate of the consideration transferred measured at fair value on acquisition date and the amount of any non-controlling interests in the acquiree. Acquisition related costs are expensed as incurred.

At the acquisition date, the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed are recognized at their acquisition date fair values. For this purpose, the liabilities assumed include contingent liabilities representing present obligation and they are measured at their acquisition fair values irrespective of the fact that outflow of resources embodying economic benefits is not probable.

Goodwill is initially measured at cost, being the excess of the net acquisition cost and any previous interest held, over the net identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed. If the fair value of the net assets acquired is in excess of the net cost of acquisition, then the gain is recognised in Other Comprehensive Income and accumulated in equity as capital reserve. However, if there is no clear evidence of bargain purchase, the Company recognises the gain directly in equity as capital reserve, without routing the same through Other Comprehensive Income.

After initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill acquired in a business combination is, from the acquisition date, allocated to each of the Company''s cashgenerating units that are expected to benefit from the combination, irrespective of whether other assets or liabilities of the acquiree are assigned to those units.

Business Combinations arising from transfer of interests in entities that are under common control are accounted using pooling of interest method wherein, assets and liabilities of the combining entities are reflected at their carrying value. No adjustments are made to reflect fair values, or recognize any

new assets or liabilities other than those required to harmonize accounting policies. The identity of the reserves is preserved and appears in the financial statements of the transferee in the same form in which they appeared in the financial statements of the transferor.

r) Provisions for liabilities, contingent liabilities and contingent assets

The Company recognises a provision when there is a present obligation as a result of a past event that probably requires an outflow of resources and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. Provisions are determined based on best estimates of the amount required to settle the obligation at the balance sheet date. These are reviewed at each balance sheet date and adjusted to reflect the current best estimates. If the effect of time value of money is material, provisions are discounted. The discount rate used to determine the present value is a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability. The increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised as interest expense. A disclosure for a contingent liability is made when there is a possible obligation or a present obligation that may, but probably will not, require an outflow of resources embodying economic benefit. Where there is a possible obligation or a present obligation that the likelihood of outflow of resources is remote, no provision or disclosure is made.

s) Exceptional items

Exceptional items are those items that management considers, by virtue of their size or incidence (including but not limited to impairment charges and acquisition and restructuring related costs), should be disclosed separately to ensure that the financial information allows an understanding of the underlying performance of the business in the year, so as to facilitate comparison with prior years. Also, tax charges related to exceptional items and certain one-time tax effects are considered exceptional. Such items are material by nature or amount to the financial year''s result and require separate disclosure in accordance with Ind AS.

t) Declaration of Dividend

The Company recognises a liability to pay final dividend to equity holders when the distribution is authorised, and the distribution is no longer at the discretion of the Company. As per the corporate laws in India, a final dividend is authorised when it is approved by the shareholders. A corresponding amount is recognised directly in equity.
