B. Significant Accounting Policies
1. Basis of preparation of financial statements
The Standalone Financial Statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with the Indian Accounting Standards (IND AS) as per the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 notified under the Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 ("the Act") and the relevant provisions and amendments, as applicable.
The Standalone Financial Statements of the Company for the year ended March 31, 2023 were authorised for issue by the Board of Directors on June 06, 2023.
The financial statements have been prepared on historical cost basis, except for certain financial assets and liabilities which have been measured atfair value (refer accounting policy regarding financial instruments).
The Ind AS financial statements are presented in INR which is the Company''s functional and presentation currency and all values are rounded to the nearest lakhs, except when otherwise indicated. Accounting policies have been consistently applied except where a newly issued accounting standard is initially adopted or a revision to an existing accounting standard requires a change in the accounting policy hitherto in use.
2. Use of estimates and management judgements
The preparation of financial statement in conformity with the recognition and measurement principles of Ind AS requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported balances of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities and the accompanying disclosures, and the disclosure of contingent liabilities. Uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets or liabilities affected in future periods.
a. Key estimates and assumptions :
The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year, are described below. The Company based its assumptions and estimates on parameters available when the financial statements were prepared. Existing circumstances and assumptions about future developments, however, may change due to market changes or circumstances arising that are beyond the control of the Company. Such changes are reflected in the assumptions when they occur.
i) Revenue recognition, contract costs and valuation of trade receivables
Revenue from contract with customer of its real estate projects is recognized, when control of the goods or services are transferred to the customer, at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company is expected to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The Company transfer control of a good and service over time. Accordingly, revenue is measured by reference to the stage of the projects and contracts determined based on the proportion of contract costs incurred for work performed to date bear to the estimated total contract costs. Hence method requires the Company to estimate the costs expended to date as a proportion of the total costs to be expended. Significant assumptions are required in determining the stage of completion, the extent of the contract cost incurred the estimated total contract revenue and contract cost and the recoverability of the contracts. These estimates are based on events existing at the end of each reporting date.
ii) Estimation of net realizable value for inventory
Inventory is stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value (NRV).
NRV for completed inventory is assessed by reference to market conditions and prices existing at the reporting date and is determined by the Company, based on comparable transactions identified by the Company for inventories in the same geographical market serving the same real estate segment.
NRV in respect of inventory under construction is assessed with reference to market prices at the reporting date for similar completed property, less estimated costs to complete construction and an estimate of the time value of money to the date of completion.
iii) Useful lives of property, plant and equipment
As described in the significant accounting policies, the Company reviews the estimated useful lives of property, plant and equipment at the end of each reporting period.
iv) Actuarial Valuation
The determination of Company''s liability towards defined benefit obligation to employees is made through independent actuarial valuation including determination of amounts to be recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss and in other comprehensive income. Such valuation depends upon assumptions determined after taking into account inflation, seniority, promotion and other relevant factors such as supply and demand factors in the employment market. Information about such valuation is provided in notes to the financial statements.
Summary of significant accounting policies
a. Property, Plant and Equipment
The cost of an item of property, plant and equipment comprises of its purchase price, any costs directly attributable to its acquisition and an initial estimate of the costs of dismantling and removing the item and restoring the site on which it is located, the obligation for which the company incurs when the item is acquired. Subsequent costs are included in the asset''s carrying amount or recognized as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to profit or loss during the reporting period in which they are incurred. Each part of an item of property, plant and equipment with a cost that is significant in relation to the total cost of the item is depreciated separately.
An item of property, plant and equipment and any significant part initially recognized is de-recognized 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 income statement when the Property, plant and equipment is derecognized.
b. Intangible Assets
Intangible assets acquired separately are measured on initial recognition at cost. Following initial recognition, intangible assets are carried at cost less any accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment loss.
The amortization period and the amortization method for an intangible asset with a finite useful life are reviewed at least at the end of each reporting period.
c. Revenue Recognition-
Revenue is recognized as follows:
I. The Company recognises revenue, on execution of agreement or letter of allotment and when control of the goods or services are transferred to the customer, at an amount that reflects the consideration (i.e. the transaction price) to which the Company is expected to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services excluding any amount received on behalf of third party (such as indirect taxes). An asset created by the Company''s performance does not have an alternate use and as per the terms of the contract, the Company has an enforceable right to payment for performance completed till date. Hence the Company transfers control of a good or service over time and, therefore, satisfies a performance obligation and recognises revenue over time. The Company recognises revenue at the transaction price which is determined on the basis of agreement or letter of allotment entered into with the customer. The Company recognises revenue for performance obligation satisfied over time only if it can reasonably measure its progress towards complete satisfaction of the performance obligation. The Company uses cost based input method for measuring progress for performance obligation satisfied over time. Under this method, the Company recognises revenue in proportion to the actual project cost incurred (excluding land cost) as against the total estimated project cost (excluding land cost). The management reviews and revises its measure of progress periodically and are considered as change in estimates and accordingly, the effect of such changes in estimates is recognised prospectively in the period in which such changes are determined.
A contract asset is the right to consideration in exchange for goods or services transferred to the customer. If the Company performs by transferring goods or services to a customer before the customer pays consideration or before payment is due, a contract asset is recognised for the earned consideration that is conditional.
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. 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).
II. Claims, interest and transfer fees from customers are recognized on acceptance of the same.
III. Income from interest is accounted for on time proportion basis taking into account the amount outstanding and the applicable rate of interest.
IV. Revenue from operation includes various charges recovered from the customers which is recognized on accrual basis having regard to timing and nature of service provided.
d. Borrowing Costs
Borrowing costs attributable to the acquisition or construction of a qualifying asset are carried as part of the cost of such asset. A qualifying asset is one that necessarily takes substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use. All other borrowing costs are expensed in the year they are incurred.
e. Depreciation and amortization
Depreciation on property, plant and equipment is calculated using thewritten down value method to allocate their cost, net of their residual values, over the useful lives of assets estimated by the
management and as given in schedule II of The Companies Act, 2013 except, life of furniture and fixtures has been estimated as 15 years against 10 years as per Schedule II of the Companies Act, 2013. Depreciation for assets purchased / sold during a period is proportionately charged.
Softwares are amortized over the estimated useful life of 5 years.
The residual values, useful lives and methods of depreciation of property, plant and equipmentare reviewed at each financial year end and adjusted prospectively, if appropriate.
i. Constructed properties, shown as work in progress, includes the cost of land (including development rights and land under agreements to purchase), internal development costs, external development costs, construction costs, overheads, borrowing costs, construction materials and is valued at lower of cost/ estimated cost and net realizable value.
ii. On completion of projects, unsold stocks are transferred to project finished stock under the head "Inventory" and the same is carried at cost or net realizable value, whichever is less.
iii. Finished Goods - Plots: Valued at lower of cost and net realizable value.
g. Retirement Benefits
a. Short Term employee benefit
The employees of the company are entitled to compensate absences which are non-accumulating in nature. Expenses of such compensated absences are recognized in the period in which such absences occur.
b. Long Term and Post-employment benefits
a) The employees'' gratuity fund scheme managed by Life Insurance Corporation of India is a defined benefit plan. The present value of obligation is determined based on actuarial valuation using the Projected Unit Credit Method.
b) Retirement benefits in the form of Provident Fund and Superannuation/ Pension schemes are charged to the Profit & Loss Statement in the year when the contributions to the respective funds are due.
Remeasurements, comprising of actuarial gains and losses, the effect of the asset ceiling, excluding amounts included in net interest on the net defined benefit liability and the return on plan assets (excluding amounts included in net interest on the net defined benefit liability), are recognized immediately in the balance sheet with a corresponding debit or credit to retained earnings through OCI in the period in which they occur. Remeasurements are not reclassified to profit or loss in subsequent periods.
i. Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets
Provisions are recognized for liabilities that can be measured only by using a substantial degree of estimation if the company has a present obligation as a result of past event and the amount of obligation can be reliably estimated.
If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre-tax rate that reflects, when appropriate, the risks specific to the liability. When discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognized as a finance cost.
Possible future or present obligations that may but will probably not require outflow of resources or where the same cannot be reliably estimated is disclosed as contingent liability in the financial statement.
Where an inflow of economic benefits is probable, a brief description of the nature of the contingent assets at the end of reporting period, and, where practicable, an estimate of their financial effect is disclosed.
j. Taxes on Income
Tax expense comprises both current and deferred tax. Current tax is determined in respect of taxable income for the year based on applicable tax rates and laws.
Deferred tax Asset/liability is recognized, subject to consideration of prudence, on timing differences being the differences between taxable incomes and accounting income that originates in one year and is capable of reversal in one or more subsequent year and measured using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the Balance Sheet date.
Deferred tax assets for carry forward business loss are recognized only if there is virtual certainty supported by convincing evidence that future taxable income will be available against which such deferred tax asset can be realized.
Deferred tax assets/liabilities are reviewed at each Balance Sheet date to reassess their reliability.
k. Foreign Currency Transactions
Foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities are translated at exchange rates in effect at Balance Sheet date. The gains or losses resulting from such translation are included in the Statement of Profit and Loss. Non-monetary assets and non-monetary liabilities denominated in a foreign currency are translated at the exchange rate prevalent at the date of transactions.
Revenue, expense and cash flow items denominated in foreign currencies are translated using the exchange rate in effect on the date of transaction.
l. Segment Reporting
The company has identified that its operating activity is a single primary business segment viz. Real Estate Development & Services carried out in India. Accordingly, whole of India has been considered as one geographical segment.
m. Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share are 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.
For the purpose of 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 year are adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potential equity shares.
n. Cash & Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash & cash on deposit with banks and corporations. The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a remaining maturity at the date of purchase of three months or less, which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value and that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash to be cash equivalents.
⢠Financial Instruments - Initial recognition and measurement
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognized in the company''s statement of financial position when the company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. The company determines the classification of its financial assets and liabilities at initial recognition.
All financial assets are recognized initially at fair value plus, in the case of financial assets not recorded at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs that are attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset.
⢠Financial assets -Subsequent measurement
The Subsequent measurement of financial assets depends on their classification which is as follows:
- Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss: Financial assets at fair value through profit and loss include financial assets held for sale in the near term and those designated upon initial recognition at fair value through profit or loss.
- Financial assets measured at amortized cost: Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. Trade receivables do not carry any interest and are stated at their nominal value as reduced by appropriate allowance for estimated irrecoverable amounts based on the ageing of the receivables balance and historical experience. Additionally, a large number of minor receivables are grouped into homogenous groups and assessed for impairment collectively. Individual trade receivables are written off when management deems them not to be collectible.
- Financial assets at fair value through OCI
All equity investments, except investments in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates, falling within the scope of Ind AS 109, are measured at fair value through Other Comprehensive Income (OCI). The company makes an irrevocable election on an instrument by instrument basis to present in other comprehensive income subsequent changes in the fair value. The classification is made on initial recognition and is irrevocable. If the company decides to designate an equity instrument at fair value through OCI, then all fair value changes on the instrument, excluding dividends, are recognized in the OCI.
⢠Financial assets -Derecognition
The company derecognizes a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the assets expire or it transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the asset. Upon derecognition of equity instruments designated at fair value through OCI, the associated fair value changes of that equity instrument is transferred from OCI to Retained Earnings.
⢠Investment in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates
Investments made by the company in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates are measured at Cost. Impairment recognized, if any is reduced from the carrying value.
Initial recognition and measurement
Financial liabilities are classified, at initial recognition, as financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, loans and borrowings, or as payables, as appropriate.
The Group''s financial liabilities include trade and other payables, loans and borrowings including bank overdrafts.
Subsequent measurement
The Subsequent measurement of financial liabilities depends on their classification which is as follows:
⢠Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss
Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss include financial liabilities held for trading, if any.
⢠Financial liabilities measured at amortized cost
Interest bearing loans and borrowings including debentures issued by the company are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method (EIR). Amortized cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and fee or costs that are integral part of the EIR. The EIR amortized is included in finance costs in the statement of profit and loss.
⢠Financial liabilities -Derecognition
A financial liability is derecognized when the obligation under the liability is discharged or expires.
The company measures certain financial instruments at fair value at each reporting 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 presumption that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability takes place either:
- In the principal market for the assets 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 to the company. The company uses valuation technique 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 â Quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
⢠Level 2 â Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is directly or indirectly observable, or
⢠Level 3 â 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 re-assessing categorization (based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole) at the end of each reporting period.
p. Impairment of non financial assets
The Company assesses, at each reporting date, whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. If any indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the Company estimates the asset''s recoverable amount. An asset''s recoverable amount is the higher of an asset''s or cash-generating unit''s (CGU) fair value less costs of disposal and its value in use. Recoverable amount is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets or groups of assets. When the carrying amount of an asset or CG exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount.
In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. In determining fair value less costs of disposal, recent market transactions are taken into account. If no such transactions can be identified, an appropriate valuation model is used. These calculations are corroborated by valuation multiples, quoted share prices for publicly traded companies or other available fair value indicators.
Impairment losses, including impairment on inventories, are recognized in the statement of profit and loss. After impairment, depreciation is provided on the revised carrying amount of the asset over its remaining useful life.
q. Impairment of financial assets
The Company assesses at each date of balance sheet whether a financial asset or a group of financial assets is impaired. Ind AS 109 requires expected credit losses to be measured through a loss allowance. The Company recognizes lifetime expected losses for all contract assets and / or all trade receivables that do not constitute a financing transaction. For all other financial assets, expected credit losses are measured at an amount equal to the 12-month expected credit losses or at an amount equal to the life time expected credit losses, if the credit risk on the financial asset has increased significantly since initial recognition.
r. Current versus non-current classification
The Company presents assets and liabilities in the balance sheet based on current/ non-current classification. An asset is treated as current when it is:
- Expected to be realized or intended to be sold or consumed in normal operating cycle;
- Held primarily for the purpose of trading;
- Expected to be realized within twelve months after the reporting period, or
- Cash or cash equivalent unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period. All other assets are classified as non-current.
A liability is current when:
- It is expected to be settled in normal operating cycle;- It is held primarily for the purpose of trading;
- It is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period, or
- There is no unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period.
The Company classifies all other liabilities as non-current.
The operating cycle is the time between the acquisition of assets for processing and their realization in cash and cash equivalents. The real estate development projects undertaken by the Company generally run over a period ranging upto 5 years. Operating assets and liabilities relating to such projects are classified as current based on an operating cycle of upto 5 years. Borrowings in connection with such projects are classified as short term (i.e. current) since they are payable over the term of the respective projects. Assets and liabilities, other than those discussed above, are classified as current to the extent they are expected to be realized / are contractually repayable within 12 months from the Balance sheet date and as non-current, in other cases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as non-current assets and liabilities.
s. Loans and borrowings
After initial recognition, interest-bearing loans and borrowings are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the EIR method. Gains and losses are recognized in profit or loss when the liabilities are de-recognised as well as through the EIR amortization process. Amortized cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of the EIR. The EIR amortization is included as finance costs in the statement of profit and loss.
t. Trade and other payables
These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Company prior to the end of financial year which are unpaid. Trade and other payables are presented as current liabilities unless payment is due within 12 months after reporting period. For trade and other payables maturing within one year from the balance sheet date, the carrying amounts approximate fair value due to the short maturity of these instruments.
u. Events after reporting date
Where events occurring after the balance sheet date provide evidence of conditions that existed at the end of the reporting period, the impact of such events is adjusted in the Financial Statements. Otherwise, events after the balance sheet date of material size or nature are only disclosed.
4. Financial risk management objectives and policies
The Company''s principal financial liabilities comprise loans and borrowings, trade and other payables. The main purpose of these financial liabilities is to finance and support Company''s operations. The Company''s principal financial assets include trade and other receivables, cash and cash equivalents and loans and advances and refundable deposits that derive directly from its operations.
The Company is exposed to market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The Company''s senior management oversees the management of these risks. The Company''s senior management is supported by a financial risk committee that advises on financial risks and the appropriate financial risk governance framework for the Company. The financial risk committee provides assurance to the Company''s senior management that the Company''s financial risk activities are governed by appropriate policies and procedures and that financial risks are identified, measured and managed in accordance with the Company''s policies and risk objectives. The Board of Directors reviews and agrees policies for managing each of these risks, which are summarized below.
A. Market risk:
Market risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. Market risk comprises two types of risk: interest rate risk and other price risk, such as equity price risk and commodity/ real estate risk. Financial instruments affected by market risk include loans and borrowings and refundable deposits.
The sensitivity analysis in the following sections relate to the position as at March 31, 2023 and March 31, 2022. The sensitivity analyses have been prepared on the basis that the amount of net debt and the ratio of fixed to floating interest rates of the debt. The analysis excludes the impact of movements in market variables on: the carrying values of gratuity and other post retirement obligations; provisions.
The below assumption has been made in calculating the sensitivity analysis:
The sensitivity of the relevant profit or loss item is the effect of the assumed changes in respective market risks. This is based on the financial assets and financial liabilities held at March 31, 2023 and March 31, 2022.
a Currency Risk
Currency risk is not material, as the Company''s primary business activities are within India and does not have significant exposure in foreign currency.
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Company''s exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relates primarily to the Company''s long-term debt obligations with floating interest rates.
The Company manages its interest rate risk by having a balanced portfolio of fixed and variable rate loans and borrowings. The Company does not enter into any interest rate swaps.
c. Interest rate sensitivity
The following table demonstrates the sensitivity to a reasonably possible change in interest rates on that portion of loans and borrowings affected. With all other variables held constant, the Company''s profit before tax is affected through the impact on floating rate borrowings, as follows:

^determined on gross basis i.e. without considering inventorisation of such borrowing cost. |
Credit risk is the risk that counterparty will not meet its obligations under a financial instrumentor customer contract, leading to a financial loss. The Company is exposed to credit risk from its operating activities (primarily trade receivables) and from its financing activities, including refundable joint development deposits, security deposits, loans to employees and other financial instruments.
Trade receivables
(a) Receivables resulting from sale of properties: Customer credit risk is managed by requiring customers to pay advances before transfer of ownership, therefore, substantially eliminating the Company''s credit risk in this respect.
(b) Receivables resulting from other than sale of properties: Credit risk is managed by each business unit subject to the Company''s established policy, procedures and control relating to customer credit risk management. Outstanding customer receivables are regularly monitored.The impairment analysis is performed at each reporting date on an individual basis for major clients. In addition, a large number of minor receivables are grouped into homogeneous groups and assessed for impairment collectively. The maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date is the carrying value of each class of financial assets. The Company does not hold collateralas security. The Company''s credit period generally ranges from 30-60 days.
Financial Instrument and cash deposits
Credit risk from balances with banks and financial institutions is managed by the Company''s treasury department in accordance with the Company''s policy. Investments of surplus funds are made only with approved counterparties and within credit limits assigned to each counterparty.
Counterparty credit limits are reviewed by the Company''s Board of Directors on an annual basis, and may be updated throughout the year subject to approval of the Company''s Finance Committee. The limits are set to minimize the concentration of risks and therefore mitigate financial loss through a counterparty''s potential failure to make payments. The Company''s maximum exposure to credit risk for the components of the statement of financial position at 31 March 2023 and 2022 is the carrying amounts.

The principle business activity of the company is Real Estate Development. The Company has its presence in the states of Haryana, Odisha and Punjab.
B) Significant Accounting Policies
1. Basis of preparation of financial statements
The financial statements (Separate financial statements) have been prepared on accrual basis in accordance with Indian Accounting Standards( Ind AS) notified under the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 and the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013.For all periods up to and including the year ended 31 March 2017, the company prepared its financial statements in accordance with accounting standards notified under section 133 of the Companies Act 2013, read together with paragraph 7 of the Companies (Accounts) Rules,2014 (previous GAAP). These financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2018 are the first the company has prepared in accordance with Ind AS.The transition from previous GAAP to Ind AS has effected presentation of company''s financial position, financial performance and cash flows. The financial statements have been prepared on historical cost basis, except for certain financial assets and liabilities which have been measured at fair value (refer accounting policy regarding financial instruments).
2. Use of estimates and management judgements
The preparation of financial statement in conformity with the recognition and measurement principles of Ind AS requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported balances of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities and the accompanying disclosures, and the disclosure of contingent liabilities. Uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets or liabilities affected in future periods.
a. Key estimates and assumptions :
The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year, are described below. The Company based its assumptions and estimates on parameters available when the financial statements were prepared. Existing circumstances and assumptions about future developments, however, may change due to market changes or circumstances arising that are beyond the control of the Company. Such changes are reflected in the assumptions when they occur.
i) Revenue recognition, contract costs and valuation of trade receivables
The Company uses the percentage of-completion method for recognition of revenue, accounting for trade receivables and contract cost thereon for its real estate projects. The percentage of completion is measured by reference to the stage of the projects and contracts determined based on the proportion of contract costs incurred for work performed to date bear to the estimated total contract costs. Use of the percentage-of-completion method requires the Company to estimate the costs expended to date as a proportion of the total costs to be expended. Significant assumptions are required in determining the stage of completion, the extent of the contract cost incurred the estimated total contract revenue and contract cost and the recoverability of the contracts. These estimates are based on events existing at the end of each reporting date.
ii)Estimation of net realizable value for inventory
Inventory is stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value (NRV).
NRV for completed inventory is assessed by reference to market conditions and prices existing at the reporting date and is determined by the Company, based on comparable transactions identified by the Company for inventories in the same geographical market serving the same real estate segment.
NRV in respect of inventory under construction is assessed with reference to market prices at the reporting date for similar completed property, less estimated costs to complete construction and an estimate of the time value of money to the date of completion.
iii) Useful lives of property, plant and equipment
As described in the significant accounting policies, the Company reviews the estimated useful lives of property plant and equipment at the end of each reporting period.
iv) Actuarial Valuation
The determination of Company''s liability towards defined benefit obligation to employees is made through independent actuarial valuation including determination of amounts to be recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss and in other comprehensive income. Such valuation depend upon assumptions determined after taking into account inflation, seniority, promotion and other relevant factors such as supply and demand factors in the employment market. Information about such valuation is provided in notes to the financial statements.
3. Summary of significant accounting policies
a. Property, Plant and Equipment
The cost of an item of property, plant and equipment comprises of its purchase price, any costs directly attributable to its acquisition and an initial estimate of the costs of dismantling and removing the item and restoring the site on which it is located, the obligation for which the company incurs when the item is acquired. Subsequent costs are included in the asset''s carrying amount or recognized as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to profit or loss during the reporting period in which they are incurred. Each part of an item of property, plant and equipment with a cost that is significant in relation to the total cost of the item is depreciated separately.
An item of property, plant and equipment and any significant part initially recognized is de-recognized 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 income statement when the Property, plant and equipment is derecognized.
On transition to Ind AS, the company has elected to continue with the carrying value of all its property, plant and equipment recognized as at 1st April 2016 measured as per the previous GAAP and use that carrying value as the deemed cost of the property, plant and equipment.
b. Intangible Assets
Intangible assets acquired separately are measured on initial recognition at cost. Following initial recognition, intangible assets are carried at cost less any accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment loss.
The amortization period and the amortization method for an intangible asset with a finite useful life are reviewed at least at the end of each reporting period
On transition to Ind AS, the company has elected to continue with the carrying value of all its intangible assets recognized as at 1 April, 2016 measured as per the previous GAAP and use that carrying value as the deemed cost of intangible assets.
c. Revenue Recognition-
Revenue is recognized as follows:
I. For Projects wherein revenue was recognized before 01.04.2016- Revenue on construction/development of projects is recognized according to percentage of completion method after making appropriate allowance for foreseeable loss, if any. However, Revenue is recognized only on those units where formal allotment/agreement to sell is executed and cost of construction reaches 30% of total estimated project cost.
II For Projects wherein revenue was recognized after 01.04.2016- Revenue on construction/development of " projects is recognized according to percentage of completion method after making appropriate allowance for foreseeable loss, if any. However, Revenue is recognized only on those units where formal allotment/agreement to sell is executed and cost of construction reaches 25% of total estimated project cost.
For revenue recognition as above:
a. Estimated project cost includes cost of land/ development rights, borrowing costs, overheads, estimated construction and development cost for projects where revenue is recognized prior to 01.04.2012.
b. For projects in which no revenue was recognized prior to 1st April, 2012, indirect costs including administrative costs, selling costs and other costs of similar nature incurred on or after 1st April, 2012 have not been considered as part of construction costs and development costs and have been fully charged to Statement of Profit & Loss. Similar costs incurred before 1st April, 2012 for such projects which are carried in Work in Progress, in terms of the accounting policy being consistently followed by the company, is charged to Statement of Profit & Loss in the year when the revenue is recognized for the first time.
III. Revenue relating to sale of residential and commercial plots is recognized on proportionate basis when 50% of the progress has been achieved as measured in terms of actual cost incurred to total estimated cost subject to the execution of the agreement to sell.
IV. Claims, interest and transfer fees from customers are recognized on acceptance of the same.
V. Income from interest is accounted for on time proportion basis taking into account the amount outstanding and the applicable rate of interest.
VI. Revenue from operation includes various charges recovered from the customers which is recognized on accrual basis having regard to timing and nature of service provided.
d. Borrowing Costs
Borrowing costs attributable to the acquisition or construction of a qualifying asset are carried as part of the cost of such asset. A qualifying asset is one that necessarily takes substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use. All other borrowing costs are expensed in the year they are incurred.
e. Depreciation and amortization
Depreciation on property, plant and equipment is calculated using the straight-line method to allocate their cost, net of their residual values, over their estimated useful lives.
The useful lives estimated for the major classes of property, plant and equipment are as follows:
Depreciation on tangible assets is provided on written down value method over the useful lives of assets estimated by the management and as given in schedule II of The Companies Act, 2013 except, life of furniture and fixtures has been estimated as 15 years against 10 years as per Schedule II of the Companies Act, 2013. Depreciation for assets purchased / sold during a period is proportionately charged.
Software''s are amortized over the estimated useful life of 5 years.
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
f. Impairment
The management periodically assesses using external and internal sources, whether there is an indication that both tangible and intangible asset may be impaired. An impairment loss is recognized wherever the carrying value of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount. An impairment loss for an asset is reversed if, and only if, the reversal can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognized.
g. Inventories
i Constructed properties, shown as work in progress, includes the cost of land (including development rights and land under agreements to purchase), internal development costs, external development costs, construction costs, overheads, borrowing costs, construction materials and is valued at lower of cost/ estimated cost and net realizable value.
ii. On completion of projects, unsold stocks are transferred to project finished stock under the head âInventoryâ and the same is carried at cost or net realizable value, whichever is less.
iii. Finished Goods - Plots: Valued at lower of cost and net realizable value
h. Retirement Benefits
a. Short Term employee benefit
The employees of the company are entitled to compensate absences which are non-accumulating in nature. Expenses of such compensated absences are recognized in the period in which such absences occur.
b. Long Term and Post-employment benefits
a) The employees'' gratuity fund scheme managed by Life Insurance Corporation of India is a defined benefit plan. The present value of obligation is determined based on actuarial valuation using the Projected Unit Credit Method.
b) Retirement benefits in the form of Provident Fund and Superannuation/ Pension schemes are charged to the Profit & Loss Statement in the year when the contributions to the respective funds are due.
Remeasurements, comprising of actuarial gains and losses, the effect of the asset ceiling, excluding amounts included in net interest on the net defined benefit liability and the return on plan assets (excluding amounts included in net interest on the net defined benefit liability), are recognized immediately in the balance sheet with a corresponding debit or credit to retained earnings through OCI in the period in which they occur. Remeasurements are not reclassified to profit or loss in subsequent periods.
i. Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets
Provisions are recognized for liabilities that can be measured only by using a substantial degree of estimation if the company has a present obligation as a result of past event and the amount of obligation can be reliably estimated.
If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre-tax rate that reflects, when appropriate, the risks specific to the liability. When discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognized as a finance cost.
Possible future or present obligations that may but will probably not require outflow of resources or where the same cannot be reliably estimated is disclosed as contingent liability in the financial statement.
Where an inflow of economic benefits is probable, a brief description of the nature of the contingent assets at the end of reporting period, and, where practicable, an estimate of their financial effect is disclosed.
j. Taxes on Income
Tax expense comprises both current and deferred tax. Current tax is determined in respect of taxable income for the year based on applicable tax rates and laws.
Deferred tax Asset/liability is recognized, subject to consideration of prudence, on timing differences being the differences between taxable incomes and accounting income that originates in one year and is capable of reversal in one or more subsequent year and measured using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the Balance Sheet date. Deferred tax assets are not recognized unless there is virtual certainty that sufficient future taxable income will be available against which such deferred tax assets can be realized. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each Balance Sheet date to reassess their reliability.
k. Foreign Currency Transactions
Foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities are translated at exchange rates in effect at Balance Sheet date. The gains or losses resulting from such translation are included in the Statement of Profit and Loss. Non-monetary assets and non-monetary liabilities denominated in a foreign currency are translated at the exchange rate prevalent at the date of transactions.
Revenue, expense and cash flow items denominated in foreign currencies are translated using the exchange rate in effect on the date of transaction.
l. Segment Reporting
The company has identified that its operating activity is a single primary business segment viz. Real Estate Development & Services carried out in India. Accordingly, whole of India has been considered as one geographical segment
m. Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share are 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.
For the purpose of 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 year are adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potential equity shares.
n. Cash & Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash & cash on deposit with banks and corporations. The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a remaining maturity at the date of purchase of three months or less, which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value and that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash to be cash equivalents.
o. Financial Instruments 0 Financial Instruments - Initial recognition and measurement
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognized in the company''s statement of financial position when the company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. The company determines the classification of its financial assets and liabilities at initial recognition. All financial assets are recognized initially at fair value plus, in the case of financial assets not recorded at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs that are attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset.
0 Financial assets -Subsequent measurement
The Subsequent measurement of financial assets depends on their classification which is as follows: -Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss: Financial assets at fair value through profit and loss include financial assets held for sale in the near term and those designated upon initial recognition at fair value through profit or loss.
-Financial assets measured at amortized cost: Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. Trade receivables do not carry any interest and are stated at their nominal value as reduced by appropriate allowance for estimated irrecoverable amounts based on the ageing of the receivables balance and historical experience. Additionally, a large number of minor receivables are grouped into homogenous groups and assessed for impairment collectively. Individual trade receivables are written off when management deems them not to be collectible.
-Financial assets at fair value through OCI
All equity investments, except investments in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates, falling within the scope of Ind AS 109, are measured at fair value through Other Comprehensive Income (OCI). The company makes an irrevocable election on an instrument by instrument basis to present in other comprehensive income subsequent changes in the fair value. The classification is made on initial recognition and is irrevocable. If the company decides to designate an equity instrument at fair value through OCI , then all fair value changes on the instrument, excluding dividends, are recognized in the OCI.
0 Financial assets -Derecognition
The company derecognizes a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the assets expire or it transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the asset. Upon derecognition of equity instruments designated at fair value through OCI, the associated fair value changes of that equity instrument is transferred from OCI to Retained Earnings.
0 Investment in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates
Investments made by the company in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates are measured at Cost. mpairment recognized, if any is reduced from the carrying value.
vipui
0 Financial liabilities -
Initial recognition and measurement
Financial liabilities are classified, at initial recognition, as financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, loans and borrowings, or as payables, as appropriate.
The Group''s financial liabilities include trade and other payables, loans and borrowings including bank overdrafts.
Subsequent measurement
The Subsequent measurement of financial liabilities depends on their classification which is as follows:
- Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss
Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss include financial liabilities held for trading, if any.
- Financial liabilities measured at amortized cost
Interest bearing loans and borrowings including debentures issued by the company are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method (EIR). Amortized cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and fee or costs that are integral part of the EIR. The EIR amortized is included in finance costs in the statement of profit and loss.
0 Financial liabilities -Derecognition
A financial liability is derecognized when the obligation under the liability is discharged or expires
0 Fair Value measurement
The company measures certain financial instruments at fair value at each reporting 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 presumption that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability takes place either:
- In the principal market for the assets 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 to the company. The company uses valuation technique 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 â Quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
- Level 2 â Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is directly or indirectly observable, or
- Level 3 â Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is unobservable.
For assets and liabilities that are recognized in the financial statements on a recurring basis, the Company determines whether transfers have occurred between levels in the hierarchy by re-assessing categorization (based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole) at the end of each reporting period. p. Impairment of non-financial assets
The Company assesses, at each reporting date, whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired.
If any indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the Company estimates the asset''s recoverable amount. An asset''s recoverable amount is the higher of an asset''s or cash-generating units (CGU) fair value less costs of disposal and its value in use. Recoverable amount is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets or groups of assets. When the carrying amount of an asset or CG exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount.
In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. In determining fair value less costs of disposal, recent market transactions are taken into account. If no such transactions can be identified, an appropriate valuation model is used. These calculations are corroborated by valuation multiples, quoted share prices for publicly traded companies or other available fair value indicators.
Impairment losses, including impairment on inventories, are recognized in the statement of profit and loss. After impairment, depreciation is provided on the revised carrying amount of the asset over its remaining useful life.
q. Impairment of financial assets
The Company assesses at each date of balance sheet whether a financial asset or a group of financial assets is impaired. Ind AS 109 requires expected credit losses to be measured through a loss allowance. The Company recognizes lifetime expected losses for all contract assets and / or all trade receivables that do not constitute a financing transaction. For all other financial assets, expected credit losses are measured at an amount equal to the 12-month expected credit losses or at an amount equal to the life time expected credit losses, if the credit risk on the financial asset has increased significantly since initial recognition.
r. Current versus non-current classification
The Company presents assets and liabilities in the balance sheet based on current/ non-current classification. An asset is treated as current when it is:
-Expected to be realized or intended to be sold or consumed in normal operating cycle;
-Held primarily for the purpose of trading;
-Expected to be realized within twelve months after the reporting period, or
-Cash or cash equivalent unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period All other assets are classified as non-current.
A liability is current when:
- It is expected to be settled in normal operating cycle; --It is held primarily for the purpose of trading; -It is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period, or -There is no unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period.
The Company classifies all other liabilities as non-current.
The operating cycle is the time between the acquisition of assets for processing and their realization in cash and cash equivalents. The real estate development projects undertaken by the Company generally run over a period ranging up to 5 years. Operating assets and liabilities relating to such projects are classified as current based on an operating cycle of up to 5 years. Borrowings in connection with such projects are classified as short term (i.e current) since they are payable over the term of the respective projects. Assets and liabilities, other than those discussed above, are classified as current to the extent they are expected to be realized / are contractually repayable within 12 months from the Balance sheet date and as non-current, in other cases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as non-current assets and liabilities. s. Loans and borrowings
After initial recognition, interest-bearing loans and borrowings are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the EIR method. Gains and losses are recognized in profit or loss when the liabilities are de-recognized as well as through the EIR amortization process. Amortized cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of the EIR. The EIR amortization is included as finance costs in the statement of profit and loss.
t. Trade and other payables
These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Company prior to the end of financial year which are unpaid. Trade and other payables are presented as current liabilities unless payment is due within 12 months after reporting period. For trade and other payables maturing within one year from the balance sheet date, the carrying amounts approximate fair value due to the short maturity of these instruments
u. First time adoption of Ind AS
These separate financial statements of Vipul Limited for the year ended 31 March, 2018 have been prepared in accordance with Ind AS. For the purposes of transition to Ind AS, the company has followed the guidance prescribed in Ind AS 101 - First Time adoption of Indian Accounting Standard, with 1 April, 2016 as the transition date and Indian GAAP as the previous GAAP.
The transition to Ind AS has resulted in changes in the presentation of the financial statements, disclosures in the notes there to and accounting policies and principles. The accounting policies set out in Note No.29.B have been applied in preparing the separate financial statements for the year ended 31 March, 2018 and the comparative information. An explanation of how the transition from previous GAAP to Ind AS has affected the company''s Balance Sheet, Statement of Profit and Loss is explained in Note No. 29.4.(E) . Exemptions on first time adoption of Ind AS availed in accordance with Ind AS 101 have been set out in Note No. 29.5
v. Exemptions applied
Ind AS 101 allows first-time adopters certain exemptions from the retrospective application of certain requirements under Ind AS. The Company has applied the following exemptions:
a) Ind AS 101 permits a first-time adopter to elect to continue with the carrying value for all of its property, plant and equipment as recognized in the financial statements as at the date of transition to Ind AS, measured as per the previous GAAP and use that as its deemed cost as at the date of transition after making necessary adjustments for de-commissioning liabilities. This exemption can also be used for investment property covered by Ind AS 40 Investment Properties. Accordingly, the Company has elected to measure all of its property, plant and equipment and investment property at their previous GAAP carrying value.
b) Ind AS 27 requires investments in subsidiaries to be recorded at cost or in accordance with Ind AS 109 in its separate financial statements. However Ind AS 101 provides an option in case the Company decides to measure such investment at cost (determined in accordance with Ind AS 27) or deemed cost (fair value or previous GAAP carrying amount) at that date. The Company can avail the above exemption and recognize the investment in subsidiaries at the previous GAAP carrying amount at the date of transition to Ind AS.
4. Notes to reconciliations between previous GAAP and Ind AS
a) Financial assets at amortized cost
Under Indian GAAP, there are certain security deposits and refundable deposits which are carried at nominal value. Ind AS requires to measure these assets at fair value at inception and subsequently these assets are measured at amortized cost. At inception date, Company recognizes difference between deposit fair value and nominal value as deferred lease expenses and same is being recognized as lease expenses on straight line basis over the lease period.
Further, Company recognizes notional interest income on these deposit over the lease term. In case of refundable deposits for joint development arrangement, difference between nominal value and fair value of deposit is treated as land cost and interest income recognized over the period of deposit is reduced from construction cost.
b) Defined benefit liabilities
Both under Indian GAAP and Ind AS, the Company has recognized costs related to its postemployment defined benefit plan on an actuarial basis. Under Indian GAAP, the entire cost, including actuarial gains and losses, are charged to profit or loss. Under Ind AS, remeasurements [comprising of actuarial gains and losses, the effect of the asset ceiling, excluding amounts included in net interest on the net defined benefit liability and the return on plan assets excluding amounts included in net interest on the net defined benefit liability] are recognized immediately in the balance sheet with a corresponding debit or credit to retained earnings through OCI.
c) Deferred tax
Indian GAAP required deferred tax accounting using the income statement approach, which focusses on differences between taxable profits and accounting profits for the period. Ind AS 12 requires entities to account for deferred taxes using the balance sheet approach, which focuses on temporary differences between the carrying amount of an asset or liability in the balance sheet and its tax base. The application of Ind AS 12 approach has resulted in recognition of deferred tax on new temporary differences, which was not required under Indian GAAP. In addition, the various transitional adjustments lead to different temporary differences. According to the accounting policies, the Company has to account for such differences. Deferred tax adjustments are recognized in correlation to the underlying transaction either in retained earnings or a separate component of equity.
d) Other comprehensive income
Under Indian GAAP, the Company has not presented other comprehensive income (OCI) separately. Hence, it has reconciled Indian GAAP profit/loss to profit/loss as per Ind AS. Further, Indian GAAP profit/loss is reconciled to total comprehensive income as per Ind AS
e) Ind AS mandatory exceptions
- Estimates
An entity''s estimates in accordance with Ind AS at the date of transition to Ind AS shall be consistent with estimates made for the same date in accordance with previous GAAP (after adjustments to reflect any difference in accounting policies), unless there is objective evidence that those estimates were in error. Ind AS estimates as at 1 April 2016 are consistent with the estimates as at the same date made in conformity with previous GAAP.
- Classification and measurement of financial assets and liabilities
Classification of financial asset is required to be made on the basis of the facts and circumstances that exist at the date of transition to Ind AS. Further, if it is impracticable for the Company to apply retrospectively the effective interest method in Ind AS 109, the fair value of the financial asset or the financial liability at the date of transition to Ind AS shall be the new gross carrying amount of that financial asset or the new amortized cost of that financial liability at the date of transition to Ind AS.
f) Financial risk management objectives and policies
The Company''s principal financial liabilities comprise loans and borrowings, trade and other payables. The main purpose of these financial liabilities is to finance and support Company''s operations. The Company''s principal financial assets include trade and other receivables, cash and cash equivalents and loans and advances and refundable deposits that derive directly from its operations.
The Company is exposed to market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The Company''s senior management oversees the management of these risks. The Company''s senior management is supported by a financial risk committee that advises on financial risks and the appropriate financial risk governance framework for the Company. The financial risk committee provides assurance to the Company''s senior management that the Company''s financial risk activities are governed by appropriate policies and procedures and that financial risks are identified, measured and managed in accordance with the Company''s policies and risk objectives. The Board of Directors reviews and agrees policies for managing each of these risks, which are summarized below.
A. Market risk:
Market risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. Market risk comprises two types of risk: interest rate risk and other price risk, such as equity price risk and commodity/ real estate risk. Financial instruments affected by market risk include loans and borrowings and refundable deposits.
The sensitivity analysis in the following sections relate to the position as at March 31, 2018 and March 31, 2017. The sensitivity analyses have been prepared on the basis that the amount of net debt and the ratio of fixed to floating interest rates of the debt. The analysis excludes the impact of movements in market variables on: the carrying values of gratuity and other post retirement obligations; provisions.
The below assumption has been made in calculating the sensitivity analysis:
The sensitivity of the relevant profit or loss item is the effect of the assumed changes in respective market risks. This is based on the financial assets and financial liabilities held at March 31, 2018 and March 31, 2017.
a. Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Company''s exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relates primarily to the Company''s long-term debt obligations with floating interest rates. The Company manages its interest rate risk by having a balanced portfolio of fixed and variable rate loans and borrowings. The Company does not enter into any interest rate swaps.
* determined on gross basis i.e. without considering inventorisation of such borrowing cost.
B. Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk that counterparty will not meet its obligations under a financial instrument or customer contract, leading to a financial loss. The Company is exposed to credit risk from its operating activities primarily trade receivables) and from its financing activities, including refundable joint development deposits, security deposits, loans to employees and other financial instruments.
Trade receivables
(a) Receivables resulting from sale of properties: Customer credit risk is managed by requiring customers to pay advances before transfer of ownership, therefore, substantially eliminating the Company''s credit risk in this respect.
(b) Receivables resulting from other than sale of properties: Credit risk is managed by each business unit subject to the Company''s established policy, procedures and control relating to customer credit risk management. Outstanding customer receivables are regularly monitored. The impairment analysis is performed at each reporting date on an individual basis for major clients. In addition, a large number of minor receivables are grouped into homogeneous groups and assessed for impairment collectively. The maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date is the carrying value of each class of financial assets. The Company does not hold collateral as security. The Company''s credit period generally ranges from 30-60 days.
Financial Instrument and cash deposits
Credit risk from balances with banks and financial institutions is managed by the Company''s treasury department in accordance with the Company''s policy. Investments of surplus funds are made only with approved counterparties and within credit limits assigned to each counterparty.
Counterparty credit limits are reviewed by the Company''s Board of Directors on an annual basis, and may be updated throughout the year subject to approval of the Company''s Finance Committee. The limits are set to minimize the concentration of risks and therefore mitigate financial loss through a counterparty''s potential failure to make payments. The Company''s maximum exposure to credit risk for the components of the statement of financial position at 31 March 2018 and 2017 is the carrying amounts.
C. Liquidity risk
The Company''s objective is to maintain a balance between continuity of funding and flexibility through the use of bank deposits and loans. The table below summarizes the maturity profile of the Company''s financial liabilities based on Contractual undiscounted payments:
D. Capital management
For the purpose of the Company''s capital management, capital includes issued equity capital, share premium and all other equity reserves attributable to the equity holders of the Company. The primary objective of the Company''s capital management is to maximise the shareholder value.
The Company manages its capital structure and makes adjustments in light of changes in economic conditions and the requirements of the financial covenants. To maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may adjust the dividend payment to shareholders, return capital to shareholders or issue new shares. The Company monitors capital using a gearing ratio, which is net debt divided by total capital plus net debt. The Company includes within net debt, interest bearing loans and borrowings, trade and other payables (excluding Liability under JDA), less cash and cash equivalents
c) There are no material adjustments to the statements of cash flows as reported under previous GAAP.
5. Notes to first time adoption
- Impact of Expected Credit Loss
i) Under previous GAAP, revenue from real estate development was recognized in accordance with Guidance Note on Accounting for Real Estate Transactions (Revised 2012) issued by Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI). Revenue in respect of projects commenced before that date (i.e. 2012 Guidance Note was applicable prospectively) was recognized in accordance with Guidance note on Recognition of Revenue by Real Estate Developers [GN(A)23 (Issued 2006)] issued by ICAI. In possession linked plan for ongoing projects, Under Ind AS, revenue is recognized on the consideration actually received from customers and trade receivables on possession are deferred using expected credit loss method.
ii) Under previous GAAP, provision for loan given to a subsidiary is recognized on specific identification method based on management assessment of recoverability of loans. Under Ind AS 109, the Company is required to apply expected credit loss model for recognizing the allowance for loans.
- Amortization of processing fees
Under Ind AS, Processing fees paid on loans are amortized over the tenure of the loan.
- Deferred Tax Adjustments
Retained earnings and statement of profit and loss has been adjusted consequent to the Ind AS transition adjustments with corresponding impact to deferred tax, wherever applicable
