2 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES2.1 Basis of Preparation and Presentation
(i) Compliance with Ind AS
The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS) notified under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 (the Act) [Indian Accounting Standards Rules, 2015] and other relevant provisions of the Act.
(ii) Historical Cost Convention
The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, except for certain financial instruments which are measured at fair values at the end of each reporting period, as explained in the accounting policies below. Historical cost is generally based on the fair value of the consideration given in exchange for goods and services. 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.
(iii) Operating Cycle
Based on the nature of products / activities of the Company and the normal time between acquisition of
assets and their realization in cash or cash equivalents, the Company has determined its operating cycle as 12 months for the purpose of classification of its assets and liabilities as current and non-current.
(iv) New and amended standards adopted by the Company
The company has applied the following amendments to Ind AS for the first time for their annual reporting period commencing April 1,2021:
(a) Extension of COVID-19 related concessions - amendments to Ind AS 116.
(b) Interest rate benchmark reform - amendments to Ind AS 109, Financial Instruments, Ind AS 107, Financial Instruments: Disclosures, Ind AS 104, Insurance Contracts and Ind AS 116, Leases.
The amendments listed above did not have any impact on the amounts recognised in current and prior periods and are not expected to significantly affect the future periods.
(v) Reclassifications consequent to amendments to Schedule III
The Ministry of Corporate Affairs amended the Schedule III to the Companies Act, 2013 on March 24, 2021 to increase the transparency and provide additional disclosures to users of financial statements. These amendments are effective from April 1, 2021. Consequent to above, the Company has changed the classification/presentation of security deposits, in the current year. The Company has also reclassified comparative amounts to conform with current year presentation as per requirements of Ind AS 1 -Presentation of financial statements.
2.2 Critical estimates and judgements
The preparation of these financial statements requires the use of accounting estimates which, by definition, which seldom equals the actual results. Management also needs to exercise judgement in applying the Company''s accounting policies. This note provides an overview of the areas that involved higher degree of judgement or complexity , and of items which are more likely to be materially adjusted due to estimates and assumptions turning out to be different than those originally assessed. Detailed information about each of these estimates and judgements is included in the relevant notes together with information about the basis of calculation for each affected line item in the financial statements.
The areas involving critical estimates or judgements are:
(i) Estimation of defined benefit obligation - refer note 34
Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated. They are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that may have a financial impact on the Company and that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
Acquisitions of businesses are accounted for using the acquisition method. The consideration transferred in a business combination is measured at fair values of the assets transferred, liabilities incurred to the former owners of the acquired business, equity interests issued by the Company and fair value of any asset or liability resulting from a contingent consideration arrangement. Identifiable assets and liabilities are measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date. Acquisition related costs are expensed as incurred.
Goodwill arising on acquisition of a business is carried at costs as established at the date of acquisition of the business less accumulated impairment losses, if any.
If the initial accounting for a business combination is incomplete by end of the reporting period in which the combination occurs, the Company reports provisional amounts for the items for which the accounting is incomplete. Those provisional amounts are adjusted during the measurement period, or additional assets or liabilities are recognised, to reflect new information obtained about facts and circumstances that existed at the
acquisition date that, if known, would have affected the amounts recognised at that date.
Goodwill is tested for impairment annually. For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill is allocated to those cash-generating units that are expected to benefit from the business combination in which the goodwill arose. If the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit is less than its carrying amount, the impairment loss is allocated to reduce the carrying amount of the goodwill. Any impairment loss recognised for goodwill is not reversed in subsequent periods.
2.5.1 Sale of goods
Revenue is recognised when control of products has transferred to customers and there are no unfulfilled obligations that could affect the customer''s acceptance of the products. Control of products is considered to be transferred at a point-in-time when goods have been despatched or delivered, as per the terms agreed with the customer as that is when the legal title, physical possession and risks and rewards of goods transfers to the customers.
Revenue is recognised at the transaction price which the company expects to be entitled.
The Company does not adjust any of the transaction prices for the time value of money as the contract with customers does not contain a significant financing component.
Receivable is recognised when the right to consideration is unconditional, which is the case when only the passage of time is required before payment of the consideration is due.
A contract asset is recognised when the Company gets the right to consideration in exchange for goods or services that it has transferred to the customers and the right is conditional upon acts other than passage of time.
When the payment exceeds the value of goods supplied or services rendered, a contract liability (advance from customers) is recognised.
2.5.2 Sale of services
Revenue from rendering of services is recognized at a point in time on rendering of services as per the terms of contracts with customers.
2.5.3 Dividend and interest income
Dividend income from investments is recognised when the shareholder''s right to receive payment has been established.
Interest income from a financial asset is recognised and accrued using effective interest rate method.
2.5.4 Rental income
The company''s policy for recognition of revenue from operating lease is described in note 2.6.1
2.6.1 The Company as lessor
Lease income from operating leases where the Company is a lessor is recognized in income on a straight line basis over the lease term. Initial direct costs incurred in obtaining an operating lease are added to the carrying amount of the underlying asset and recognized as expense over the lease term on the same basis as lease income. The respective lease assets are included in the balance sheet based on their nature.
2.6.2 The Company as lessee
The Company has a leasing arrangement which meets the definition of short team lease in accordance with Ind AS 116. The Company has elected to apply the practical expedient to not recognise a lease liability and right-of-use asset for short-term leases with a lease term of 12 months or less. Payments associated with short term
leases are recognised on a straight line basis in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Grants from the government are recognized at their fair value where there is a reasonable assurance that the grant will be received and the Company will comply with all attached conditions.
Government grants relating to income are deferred and recognized in the profit or loss over the period necessary to match them with the costs that they are intended to compensate and presented within other operating income.
Government grants relating to the purchase of property, plant and equipment are netted off with the cost of related asset.
The export incentives from the Government are recognized based on eligibility at their fair value where there is a reasonable assurance that the incentive will be received and the Company will comply with all attached conditions.
2.8 Foreign currency transactions
Items included in the financial statements of the company are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operate (i.e. the "functional currency"). The financial statements are presented in Indian Rupee (INR), the national currency for India, which is the functional and presentation currency of the company.
Transactions in currencies other than the entity''s functional currency (foreign currencies) are recognised at the rates of exchange prevailing at the date of the transactions. At the end of each reporting period, monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing at that date. Non-monetary items carried at fair value that are denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing at that date when the fair value was determined. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are not retranslated.
Exchange differences on monetary items are recognised in the statement of profit and loss.
Borrowing costs, other than that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset are expensed in the period in which they are incurred.
2.10.1 Long Term Employee Benefits Defined Contribution Plans
Superannuation fund, Provident fund and Pension fund are defined contribution plans towards which the Company makes contribution at predetermined rates to the Superannuation Trust, and the Regional Provident Fund Commissioner respectively. The same is debited to the Statement of Profit and Loss based on the amount of contribution required to be made as and when services are rendered by the employees.
The Company also makes contributions to state plans namely Employee''s State Insurance Fund and Employee''s Pension Scheme 1995. The Company has no further payment obligation once the contributions have been paid.
Defined Benefit Plan
The liability or asset recognised in the balance sheet in respect of defined benefit gratuity plan is the present value of the defined obligation at the end of the reporting period less the fair value of plan assets. The defined benefit obligation is calculated annually by actuaries using the projected unit credit method. The amount is funded to a Gratuity fund administered by the trustees and managed by Life Insurance Corporation of India. Remeasurement, comprising actuarial gain and losses arising from experience adjustments and changes in
actuarial assumptions are recognised in the period in which they occur directly in other comprehensive income. They are included in retained earnings in the statement of changes in equity and in the Balance Sheet. Defined benefit costs are categorised as follows :
⢠service cost (including current service cost, past service cost, as well as gains and losses on curtailments and settlements);
⢠net interest expense or income;
⢠remeasurement
Other long term Employee Benefits - Compensated Absences
The Company also has liabilities for earned leave that are not expected to be settled wholly within 12 months after the end of the period in which the employees render the related service. These obligations are therefore measured as the present value of expected future payments to be made in respect of services provided by employees up to the end of the reporting period using the projected unit credit method. The benefits are discounted using the appropriate market yields at the end of the reporting period that have terms approximating to the terms of the related obligation. Remeasurements as a result of experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions are recognised in profit or loss.
The obligations are presented as current liabilities in the balance sheet if the entity does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least twelve months after the reporting period, regardless of when the actual settlement is expected to occur.
Termination benefits are recognized as an expense as and when incurred.
2.10.2 Short-term employee benefits
Short term employee benefits including performance incentives which are expected to be settled within 12 months after the end of the period in which the employee renders related service, are determined as per Company''s policy and recognized as expense based on expected obligation on undiscounted basis.
Income tax expense represents the sum of the current tax payable and deferred tax. Income tax expense is recognized in the statement of profit and loss except to the extent it relates to items directly recognized in equity or in other comprehensive income.
2.11.1 Current tax
Current tax is measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities based on the taxable income for the period. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the current tax amount are those that are enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date and applicable for the period. The Company offsets current tax assets and current tax liabilities, where it has a legally enforceable right to set off the recognized amounts and where it intends either to settle on a net basis or to realize the asset and liability simultaneously.
2.11.2 Deferred tax
Deferred tax is recognized using the Balance Sheet approach. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for deductible and taxable temporary differences arising between the tax base of assets and liabilities and their carrying amount in financial statements. However, the deferred tax liabilities are not recognised if they arise from the initial recognition of goodwill or from initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and affects neither accounting nor taxable profits or losses at the time of the transaction.
Deferred tax asset are recognized 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 utilized.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets are 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 utilized.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period when the asset is realized or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.
The basic earnings/ (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net profit attributable to equity shareholders for the year by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per share adjusts the figures used in the determination of basic earnings per share to take into account the after income tax effect of interest and other financing costs associated with dilutive potential equity shares, and the weighted average number of additional equity shares that would have been outstanding assuming the conversion of all dilutive potential equity shares.
2.13 Research and development costs
Revenue expenditure pertaining to research are charged to the respective heads in Statement of Profit and Loss. Development costs of products are also charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss unless a product''s technical feasibility has been established, in which case such expenditure is capitalised. The amount capitalised comprises expenditure that can be directly attributed or allocated on a reasonable and consistent basis to creating, producing and making the asset ready for its intended use. Property, plant and equipment utilised for research and development are capitalised and depreciated in accordance with the policies stated for Property, plant and equipment.
2.14 Property, Plant and equipment
Freehold Land is carried at historical cost.
All other items of Property, Plant and equipment are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, if any. The cost of Property, Plant and equipment comprises its purchase price net of any trade discounts and rebates, any import duties and other taxes (other than those subsequently recoverable from the tax authorities), any directly attributable expenditure on making the asset ready for its intended use, other incidental expenses and interest on borrowings attributable to acquisition of qualifying assets up to the date the asset is ready for its intended use. Machinery spares which can be used exclusively in connection with an item of Property, Plant and equipment and whose use is expected to be irregular are capitalised and depreciated over the useful life of the principal item of the relevant assets. Subsequent costs are included in the asset''s carrying amount are recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably.
Capital work-in-progress:
Items of assets which are not yet ready for their intended use are carried at cost, comprising direct cost, related incidental expenses and attributable interest, if any.
Depreciation
Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost of the assets (other than freehold land and capital work-inprogress) less their residual values over their useful lives, using the straight-line method. The estimated useful lives, residual value and depreciation method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimate accounted for on a prospective basis.

Depreciation on property, plant and equipment has been provided on the straight-line method as above except in respect of the used / second hand machinery and process bath equipment, in whose case the life of the assets has been assessed to be shorter based on technical advice, taking into account the nature of the asset, the estimated usage of the asset, the operating conditions of the asset, past history of replacement, anticipated technological changes, manufacturers warranties and maintenance support, etc.
Depreciation on assets added / disposed off during the year is provided on pro-rata basis from the month of addition or up to the month prior to the month of disposal, as applicable.
Individual assets costing less than Rs.5,000 each are depreciated in full in the year of acquisition.
An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset. Any gain or loss arising on the disposal or retirement of an item of property, plant and equipment is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and is recognised in profit or loss.
2.15.1 Intangible assets acquired separately
Intangible assets with finite useful lives that are acquired separately are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. Amortisation is recognised on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. The estimated useful life and amortisation method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimate being accounted for on a prospective basis.
2.15.2. Intangible assets acquired in a business combination
Intangible assets acquired in a business combination other than goodwill are initially recognised at their fair value at the acquisition date (which is regarded as their cost).
2.15.3 Useful lives of intangible assets

5 years |
|
Computer Software |
5 years |
|
Brands and Trademarks |
5 years |
|
Patents |
5 years |
2.16 Impairment of tangible and intangible assets other than goodwill
At the end of each reporting period, the company reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible and intangible
assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the assets is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). When it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the company estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. When a reasonable and consistent basis of allocation can be identified, corporate assets are also allocated to individual cash-generating units, or otherwise they are allocated to the smallest group of cash-generating units for which a reasonable and consistent allocation basis can be identified.
Recoverable amount is higher of fair value less cost of disposal and value in use. 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 for which the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted.
If the recoverable amount of an asset (or cash-generating unit) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset(or cash-generating unit) is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss.
Inventories are valued at lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost of raw materials, stores and spares and traded goods comprises cost of purchases. Cost of work-in-progress and finished goods comprises direct materials, direct labour, and an appropriate proportion of overheads. Cost of inventories also include all other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to the present location and condition. Cost is computed on weighted average basis.
Net realisable value represents the estimated selling price for inventories less the estimated costs of completion and estimated costs necessary to make the sale.
Provisions are made for potential obsolescence based on management asesssment of aged inventory items.
2.18 Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, deposits held at call with financial institutions, other short term, highly liquid investments with maturity of 3 months or less that are readily convertible into known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in values, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts and Book overdrafts are disclosed under "Financial liabilities".
Cash flows are reported using the indirect method, whereby profit for the period is adjusted for the effects of transactions of a non-cash nature, any deferrals or accruals of past or future operating cash receipts or payments and item of income or expenses associated with investing or financing cash flows. The cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities of the Company are segregated.
2.19 Provisions and contingencies
Provisions are recognised when the company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a results of a past event, it is probable that the company will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.
The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle present obligation at the end of reporting period, taking into account the risk and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. When a provision is measured using the cash flows estimated to settle the present obligation, its carrying amount is the present value of those cash flows (when the effect of the time value of money is material).
When some or all of the economic benefits required to settle a provision are expected to be recovered from a third party, a receivable is recognised as an asset if it is virtually certain that reimbursement will be received and the amount of receivable can be measured reliably.
A disclosure for contingent liabilities is made where there is a possible obligation or a present obligation that may probably not require an outflow of resources or where there is an obligation for which the future
outcome cannot be ascertained with reasonable certainty. When there is a possible or a present obligation where the likelihood of outflow of resources is remote, no provision or disclosure is made.
Contingent assets are not recognized in the financial statements.
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provision of the instruments.
Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities (other than financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss ) are added to or deducted from the fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition. Transactions costs directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are recognised immediately in profit or loss.
All regular way purchases or sales of financial assets are recognised and derecognised on a trade date basis. Regular way purchases or sales are purchases or sales of financial assets that require delivery of assets within the time frame established by regulation or convention in the market place.
All recognised financial assets are subsequently measured in their entirety at either amortized cost or fair value, depending on the classification of the financial assets.
2.21.1. Classification of financial assets
Financial Assets that meet the following conditions are subsequently measured at amortised cost (except for financial assets that are designated as fair value through profit or loss on initial recognition) :
⢠the asset is held within business model whose objective is to hold assets in order to collect contractual cash flows; and
⢠the contractual terms of the instruments give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
Financial assets are presented as current assets, except for those maturing later than 12 months after the reporting date which are presented as non-current assets. Financial assets are measured initially at fair value plus transaction costs and subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment loss.
Amortised cost are represented by security deposits, cash and cash equivalents and eligible current and noncurrent assets. Cash and cash equivalent comprise cash on hand and in banks and demand deposit with banks which can be withdrawn at any time without prior notice or penalty on the principal.
For the impairment policy on financial assets measured at amortised cost, refer Note 2.21.5 Financial assets that meet the following conditions are subsequently measured at fair value through other comprehensive income (except for financial assets that are designated as fair value through profit or loss on initial recognition) :
⢠the asset is held within a business model whose objective is achieved both by collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets; and
⢠the contractual terms of the instruments give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
2.21.2 Investment in Subsidiaries
Investment in subsidiaries is carried at cost.
2.21.3 Investment in equity instruments at Fair Value Through Other Comprehensive Income (FVTOCI)
On initial recognition, the company can make an irrevocable election (on an instrument- by instrument basis) to present the subsequent changes in fair value in other comprehensive income pertaining to investment in equity
instruments. This election is not permitted if the equity investment is held for trading. These elected investments are initially measured at fair value. Subsequently, they are measured at fair value with gain and losses arising from changes in fair value recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in the ''Reserve for equity instrument through other comprehensive income''. The cumulative gain or loss is not reclassified to profit or loss on disposal of the investments.
2.21.4. Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL)
Financial asset at FVTPL are measured at fair value at the end of each reporting period, with any gains or losses arising on remeasurement recognised in profit or loss. The net gain or loss recognised in profit or loss incorporate any dividend or interest earned on the financial asset and is included under ''Other income''. Dividend on financial asset at FVTPL is recognised when the company''s right to receive the dividends is established. It is probable that the economic benefits associated with the dividend will flow to the entity, the dividend does not represent a recovery of part of cost of the investment and the amount can be measured reliably.
FVTPL is a residual category for financial assets. Any financial categorisation which is not at amortised cost or as FVTOCI, is classified at FVTPL. In addition, the company may elect to designate the financial asset, which otherwise meets amortised cost or FVTOCI criteria, at FVTPL, if doing so eliminates or significantly reduces a measurement or recognition inconsistency.
2.21.5. Impairment of financial assets
The company measures the loss allowance for a financial instrument at an amount equal to the lifetime expected credit losses if the credit risk on that financial instrument has increased significantly since initial recognition. If the credit risk on a financial instrument has not increased significantly since initial recognition, the company measures the loss allowance for that financial instruments at an amount equal to 12 month expected credit losses. 12 month expected credit losses are portion of the lifetime expected credit losses and represents the lifetime cash shortfalls that will result if default occurs within the 12 months after the reporting date and thus, are not cash shortfalls that are predicted over the 12 months.
For trade receivables or any contractual rights to receive cash or another financial assets that result from transactions that are within the scope of Ind AS 115, the company always measures the loss allowance at an amount equal to life time expected credit losses.
Further, for the purposes of measuring lifetime expected credit loss allowance for trade receivables, the company has used a practical expedient as permitted under Ind AS 109. This expected credit loss allowance is computed based on a provision matrix which takes into account historical credit loss experience and adjusted for forward-looking information.
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker (CODM). Refer Note 32 for segment information presented.
Exceptional items are material items of income or expenses that are disclosed separately due to the significance of their nature or amount, to provide further understanding of the financial performance of the Company.
All amounts disclosed in the financial statements and notes have been rounded off to the nearest lakhs, as per the requirement of Schedule III, unless otherwise stated.
2.25 New standards and interpretations not yet adopted
The Ministry of Corporate Affairs has vide notification dated March 23, 2022 notified the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Amendment Rules, 2022 which amends certain accounting standards, and are effective April 1,2022. These amendments are not expected to have a material impact on the Company in the current or future reporting periods and on foreseeable future transactions.
Mar 31, 2018
1 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
1.1 Basis of preparation and presentation
(i) Compliance with Ind AS
The financial statements of the company have been prepared in accordance with Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS) notified under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 (the act) [Indian Accounting Standards Rules, 201 5] and other relevant provisions of the Act.
(ii) Historical Cost Convention
These financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, except for certain financial instruments which are measured at fair values at the end of each reporting period, as explained in the accounting policies below. Historical cost is generally based on the fair value of the consideration given in exchange for goods and services. 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.
(iii)Operating Cycle
Based on the nature of products / activities of the Company and the normal time between acquisition of assets and their realization in cash or cash equivalents, the Company has determined its operating cycle as 12 months for the purpose of classification of its assets and liabilities as current and non-current.
1.2 Critical Estimates and Judgements
The preparation of these financial statements requires the use of accounting estimates which could differ from the actual results. Management also needs to exercise judgement in applying the Companyâs accounting policies. These note provides an overview of the areas that involved higher degree of judgement or complexity, and of items which are more likely to be materially adjusted due to estimates and assumptions turning out to be different than those originally assessed. Detailed information about each of these estimates and judgements is included in the relevant notes together with information about the basis of calculation for each affected line item in the financial statements.
The areas involving critical estimates or judgements are:
(i) Estimation of useful life of Tangible and Intangible assets - Note 2.14 & 2.1 5
(ii) Impairment of Trade receivables - Note 11 & Note 2.21.4
(iii) Estimation of defined benefit obligation - Note 34
Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated. They are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that may have a financial impact on the Company and that are believed to be reasonable underthe circumstances.
1.3 Business combinations
Acquisitions of businesses are accounted for using the acquisition method. The consideration transferred in a business combination is measured at fair values of the assets transferred, liabilities incurred to the former owners of the acquired business , equity interests issued by the company and fair value of any asset or liability resulting from a contingent consideration arrangement. Identifiable assets and liabilities are measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date. Acquisition related costs are expensed as incurred.
1.4 Goodwill
Goodwill is measured as the excess of the sum of the consideration transferred, the amount of any noncontrolling interests in the acquired business and the acquisition date fair value of any previous equity interest in the acquired entity (if any),over the fair value of the net identifiable assets acquired.
If the initial accounting for a business combination is incomplete by end of the reporting period in which the combination occurs, the Company reports provisional amounts for the items for which the accounting is incomplete. Those provisional amounts are adjusted during the measurement period, or additional assets or liabilities are recognised, to reflect new information obtained above facts and circumstances that existed at the acquisition date that, if known, would have affect the amounts recognised at that date.
Goodwill arising on acquisition of a business is carried at costs as established at the date of acquisition of the business less accumulated impairment losses, if any.
Goodwill is tested for impairment annually. For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill is allocated to those cash-generating units that are expected to benefit from the business combination in which the goodwill arose. If the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit is less than its carrying amount, the impairment loss is allocated to reduce the carrying amount of the goodwill. Any impairment loss recognised for goodwill is not reversed in subsequent periods.
1.5 Revenue recognition
Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable. Amounts disclosed as revenue are inclusive of excise duty and net of returns, trade discounts & rebates. Amounts collected on behalf of third parties such as value added taxes, goods and service tax (GST) are excluded from revenue.
1.5.1 Sale of goods
Revenue from the sale of goods are recognised when the goods are despatched and titles have passed to the buyer, which generally coincides with dispatch of goods, at which time all the following conditions are satisfied :
- the company has transferred to the buyer the significant risk and rewards of ownership of the goods
- the company retains neither continuing managerial involvement to the degree usually associated with ownership nor effective control over the goods sold
- the amount of revenue can be measured reliablv
- it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the company and
- the cost incurred orto be incurred in respect of the transactions can be measured reliably.
1.5.2 Rendering of services
Revenue from rendering of services priced on a time and material basis is recognized on rendering of services as per the terms of contracts with customers.
1.5.3 Dividend and interest income
Dividend income from investments is recognised when the shareholderâs right to receive payment has been established.
Interest income from a financial asset is recognised and accrued on time proportion basis.
1.5.4 Rental income
The companyâs policy for recognition of revenue from operating lease is described in note 2.6.1
1.6 Leasing - Operating
Leases are classified as finance lease whenever the terms of the lease transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the lessee. All other leases are classified as operating leases.
1.6.1 The Company as lessor
Rental income from operating leases is generally recognised on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Where the rentals are structured solely to increase in line with expected general inflation to compensate for the companyâs expected inflationary cost increases, such increases are recognised in the year in which such benefits accrue. Initial direct costs incurred in negotiating and arranging an operating lease are added to the carrying amount of the leased asset and recognised on a straight-line basis overthe lease term.
1.6.2 The Company as lessee
Lease payments under operating leases are recognised as an expense on a straight line basis in the statement of profit and loss over the lease term except where the lease payments are structured to increase in line with expected general inflation.
1.7 Government Grants
Grants from the government are recognized at their fair value where there is a reasonable assurance that the grant will be received and the Company will comply with all attached conditions.
Government grants relating to income are deferred and recognized in the profit or loss over the period necessary to match them with the costs that they are intended to compensate and presented within other operating income.
Government grants relating to the purchase of property, plant and equipment are included in non-current liabilities as deferred income and are credited to profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the expected lives of the related assets and presented within other operating income.
The export incentives from the Government are recognized based on eligibility at their fair value where there is a reasonable assurance that the incentive will be received and the company will comply with all attached conditions.
1.8 Foreign Currency
Items included in the financial statements of the company are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operate (i.e. the âfunctional currencyâ). The financial statements are presented in Indian Rupee (INR), the national currency for India, which is the functional and presentation currency of the company.
Transactions in currencies other than the entityâs functional currency (foreign currencies) are recognised at the rates of exchange prevailing at the date of the transactions. At the end of each reporting period, monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing at that date. Non-monetary items carried at fair value that are denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing at that date when the fair value was determined. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are not retranslated.
Exchange differences on monetary items are recognised in the statement of profit and loss.
1.9 Borrowing Costs
Borrowing costs, other than that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset are expensed in the period in which they are incurred.
1.10 Employee Benefits
1.10.1 Long Term Employee Benefits
Long -Term Employee Benefits - Compensated Absences
Accumulated Compensated absences which fall due beyond 12 months is provided for in the books on actuarial valuation basis at the year end using projected unit credit method.
Defined Contribution Plans
Superannuation fund. Provident fund and Pension fund are defined contribution plans towards which the company makes contribution at predetermined rates to the Superannuation Trust, and the Regional Provident Fund Commissioner respectively. The same is debited to the Statement of Profit and Loss based on the amount of contribution required to be made and when services are rendered bythe employees.
The Company also makes contributions to state plans namely Employeeâs State Insurance Fund and Employeeâs Pension Scheme 1995. The Company has no further payment obligation once the contributions have been paid.
Defined Benefit Plan
The liability or asset recognised for gratuity as at the Balance sheet date is determined on the basis of actuarial valuation using Projected Unit Credit method. The amount is funded to a Gratuity fund administered by the trustees and managed by Life Insurance Corporation of India.
Remeasurement, comprising actuarial gain and losses arising from experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions are recognised in the period in which they occur directly in other comprehensive income. They are included in retained earnings in the statement of changes in equity and in the Balance Sheet. Defined benefit costs are categorised as follows :
- service cost (including current service cost, past service cost, as well as gains and losses on curtailments and settlements);
- net interest expense or income;
- remeasurement
Termination benefits are recognized as an expense as and when incurred.
1.10.2 Short Term Employee Benefits
Short term employee benefits including performance incentive and compensated absences which are expected to be settled within 12 months after the end of the period in which the employee renders related service, are determined as per Companyâs policy and recognized as expense based on expected obligation on undiscounted basis.
1.11 Taxation
Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax. Income tax expense is recognized in the statement of profit and loss except to the extent it relates to items directly recognized in equity orin other comprehensive income.
1.11.1 Current Tax
Current income tax for the current and prior periods are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities based on the taxable income forthe period. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the current tax amount are those that are enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date and applicable for the period. The Company offsets current tax assets and current tax liabilities, where it has a legally enforceable right to set off the recognized amounts and where it intends either to settle on a net basis or to realize the asset and liability simultaneously.
1.11.2 Deferred Tax
Deferred income tax is recognized using the Balance Sheet approach. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for deductible and taxable temporary differences arising between the tax base of assets and liabilities and their carrying amount in financial statements. However, the deferred tax liabilities are not recognised if they arise from the initial recognition of goodwill or from initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and affects neither accounting nor taxable profits or losses at the time of the transaction.
Deferred income tax asset are recognized to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, and the carryforward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilized.
Deferred income tax liabilities are recognized for all taxable temporary differences.
The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets are 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 income tax asset to be utilized.
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period when the asset is realized or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.
1.12 Earning per Share
The basic earnings/ (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net profit attributable to equity shareholders for the year by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per share adjusts the figures used in the determination of basic earnings per share to take into account the after income tax effect of interest and other financing costs associated with dilutive potential equity shares, and the weighted average number of additional equity shares that would have been outstanding assuming the conversion of all dilutive potential equity shares.
1.13 Research and development costs
Revenue expenditure pertaining to research are charged to the respective heads in Statement of Profit and Loss. Development costs of products are also charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss unless a productâs technical feasibility has been established, in which case such expenditure is capitalised. The amount capitalised comprises expenditure that can be directly attributed or allocated on a reasonable and consistent basis to creating, producing and making the asset ready for its intended use. Fixed assets utilised for research and development are capitalised and depreciated in accordance with the policies stated for Property, plant and equipment.
1.14 Property, Plant and equipment
Freehold Land is carried at historical cost.
All other items of Property, Plant and equipment are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, if any. The cost of tangible assets comprises its purchase price net of any trade discounts and rebates, any import duties and other taxes (other than those subsequently recoverable from the tax authorities), any directly attributable expenditure on making the asset ready for its intended use, other incidental expenses and interest on borrowings attributable to acquisition of qualifying tangible assets up to the date the asset is ready for its intended use. Machinery spares which can be used exclusively in connection with an item of tangible asset and whose use is expected to be irregular are capitalised and depreciated over the useful life of the principal item of the relevant assets. Subsequent costs are included in the assetâs carrying amount are recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably.
Individual assets costing less than Rs.5,000 each are depreciated in full in the year of acquisition.
Capital work-in-proaress:
Items of assets which are not yet ready for their intended use are carried at cost, comprising direct cost, related incidental expenses and attributable interest, if any.
Depreciation
Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost of the assets (other than freehold land and assets under progress) less their residual values over their useful lives, using the straight-line method. The estimated useful lives, residual value and depreciation method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimate accounted for on a prospective basis.
Estimated useful lives of the tangible assets are as follows:-
Depreciation on tangible fixed assets has been provided on the straight-line method as per the useful life prescribed in Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013 except in respect of the used / second hand machines & process bath equipments , in whose case the life of the assets has been assessed based on technical advice, taking into account the nature of the asset, the estimated usage of the asset, the operating conditions of the asset, past history of replacement, anticipated technological changes, manufacturers warranties and maintenance support, etc.
Depreciation on assets added / disposed off during the year is provided on pro-rata basis from the month of addition oruptothemonth priorto the month of disposal, as applicable.
An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset. Any gain or loss arising on the disposal or retirement of an item of property, plant and equipment is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and is recognised in profit or loss.
1.15 Intangible Assets
1.15.1 Intangible assets acquired separately
Intangible assets with finite useful lives that are acquired separately are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. Amortisation is recognised on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. The estimated useful life and amortisation method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimate being accounted for on a prospective basis.
1.15.2. Intangible assets acquired in a business combination
Intangible assets acquired in a business combination other than goodwill are initially recognised at their fair value atthe acquisition date (which is regarded astheircost).
1.15.3 Useful lives of intangible assets
Estimated useful lives of the intangible assets are as follows:-
1.16 Impairment of tangible and intangible assets other than goodwill
At the end of each reporting period, the company reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible and intangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the assets is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). When it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the company estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. When a reasonable and consistent basis of allocation can be identified, corporate assets are also allocated to individual cash-generating units, or otherwise they are allocated to the smallest group of cash-generating units for which a reasonable and consistent allocation basis can be identified.
Recoverable amount is higher of fair value less cost of disposal and value in use. 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 for which the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted.
If the recoverable amount of an asset (or cash-generating unit) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset(or cash-generating unit) is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss.
1.17 Inventories
Inventories are valued at lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost of raw materials, stores and spares and traded goods comprises cost of purchases. Cost of work-in-progress and finished goods comprises direct materials, direct labour, and an appropriate proportion of overheads. Cost of inventories also include all other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to the present location and condition. Cost is computed on weighted average basis.
Net realisable value represents the estimated selling price for inventories less the estimated costs of completion and estimated costs necessary to makethe sale.
1.18 Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, deposits held at call with financial institutions, other short term, highly liquid investments with original maturity of 3 months or less that are readily convertible into known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in values, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts and Book overdrafts are disclosed under âOther financial liabilitiesâ.
Cash flows are reported using the indirect method, whereby profit for the period is adjusted for the effects of transactions of a non-cash nature, any deferrals or accruals of past or future operating cash receipts or payments and item of income or expenses associated with investing or financing cash flows. The cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities of the Company are segregated.
1.19 Provisions and Contingencies
Provisions are recognised when the company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that the company will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.
The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle present obligation at the end of reporting period, taking into account the risk and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. When a provision is measured using the cash flows estimated to settle the present obligation, its carrying amount is the present value of those cash flows (when the effect of the time value of money is material).
When some or all of the economic benefits required to settle a provision are expected to be recovered from a third party, a receivable is recognised as an asset if it is virtually certain that reimbursement will be received and the amount of receivable can be measured reliably.
A disclosure for contingent liabilities is made where there is a possible obligation or a present obligation that may probably not require an outflow of resources or an obligation for which the future outcome cannot be ascertained with reasonable certainty. When there is a possible or a present obligation where the likelihood of outflow of resources is remote, no provision or disclosure is made.
Contingent assets are not recognized in the financial statements.
1.20 Financial Instruments
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the company become a party to the contractual provision of the instruments.
Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities (other than financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss) are added to or deducted from the fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition. Transactions costs directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are recognised immediately in profit or loss.
1.21 Financial Assets
All regular way purchases or sales of financial assets are recognised and derecognised on a trade date basis. Regular way purchases or sales are purchases or sales of financial assets that require delivery of assets within the timeframe established by regulation or convention in the market place.
All recognised financial assets are subsequently measured in their entirety at either amortized cost or fair value, depending on the classification of the financial assets.
1.21.1. Classification of financial assets
Financial Assets that meet the following conditions are subsequently measured at amortised cost (except for financial assets that are designated as at fair value through profit or loss on initial recognition):
- the asset is held within business model whose objective is to hold assets in order to collect contractual cash flows; and
- the contractual terms of the instruments give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
Financial assets are presented as current assets, except for those maturing later than 12 months after the reporting date which are presented as non-current assets. Financial assets are measured initially at fair value plus transaction costs and subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment loss.
Amortised cost are represented by security deposits, cash and cash equivalents and eligible current and non-current assets. Cash and cash equivalent comprise cash on hand and in banks and demand deposit with banks which can be withdrawn at any time without prior notice or penalty on the principal.
For the impairment policy on financial assets measured at amortised cost, refer Note 2.21.4
Financial assets that meet the following conditions are subsequently measured at fair value through other comprehensive income (except for financial assets that are designated as at fair value through profit or loss on initial recognition):
- the asset is held within a business model whose objective is achieved both by collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets; and
- the contractual terms of the instruments give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
1.21.2 Investment in equity instruments at FVTOCI
On initial recognition, the group can make an irrevocable election (on an instrument- by instrument basis) to present the subsequent changes in fair value in other comprehensive income pertaining to investment in equity instruments. This election is not permitted if the equity investment is held for trading. These elected investments are initially measured at fair value. Subsequently, they are measured at fair value with gain and losses arising from changes in fair value recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in the âReserve for equity instrument through other comprehensive incomeâ. The cumulative gain or loss is not reclassified to profit or loss on disposal of the investments.
1.21.3. Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL)
Financial asset at FVTPL are measured at fair value at the end of each reporting period, with any gains or losses arising on remeasurement recognised in profit or loss. The net gain or loss recognised in profit or loss incorporate any dividend or interest earned on the financial asset and is included underâOther incomeâ. Dividend on financial asset at FVTPL is recognised when the companyâs right to receive the dividends is established. It is probable that the economic benefits associated with the dividend will flow to the entity, the dividend does not represent a recovery of part of cost of the investment and the amount can be measured reliably.
FVTPL is a residual category for financial assets. Any financial categorisation as at amortised cost or as FVTOCI, is classified at FVTPL. In addition, the company may elect to designate the financial asset, which otherwise meets amortised cost or FVTOCI criteria, at FVTPL, if doing so eliminates or significantly reduces a measurement or recognition inconsistency.
1.21.4. Impairment of financial assets
The company measures the loss allowance for a financial instruments at an amount equal to the lifetime expected credit losses if the credit risk on that financial instruments has increased significantly since initial recognition. If the credit risk on a financial instruments has not increased significantly since initial recognition, the company measures the loss allowance for that financial instruments at an amount equal to 12 month expected credit losses. 12 month expected credit losses are portion of the lifetime expected credit losses and represents the lifetime cash shortfalls that will result if default occurs within the 12 months after the reporting date and thus, are not cash shortfalls that are predicted over the 12 months. For trade receivables or any contractual rights to receive cash or another financial assets that result from transactions that are within the scope of Ind AS 11 and Ind AS 18, the company always measures the loss allowance at an amount equal to life time expected credit losses.
Further, for the purposes of measuring lifetime expected credit loss allowance for trade receivables, the company has used a practical expedient as permitted under Ind AS 109. This expected credit loss allowance is computed based on a provision matrix which takes into account historical credit loss experience and adjusted for forward-looking information.
1.22 Segment Reporting
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker (CODM). Refer Note 32 for segment information presented.
1.23 Rounding Off
All amounts disclosed in the financial statements and notes have been rounded off to the nearest lakhs, as per the requirement of Schedule III, unless otherwise stated.
1.24 New standards and interpretations not yet adopted
1.24.1 Ind AS 21
Appendix B to Ind AS 21, Foreign currency transactions and advance consideration: On March 28, 2018, Ministry of Corporate Affairs (âMCAâ) has notified the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Amendment Rules, 2018 containing Appendix B to Ind AS 21, Foreign currency transactions and advance consideration which clarifies the date of the transaction for the purpose of determining the exchange rate to use on initial recognition of the related asset, expense or income, when an entity has received or paid advance consideration in a foreign currency.
The Company is evaluating the requirements of the amendment and the impact on the financial statements.
1.24.2 Ind AS 115
Ind AS 11 5- Revenue from Contract with Customers: On March 28, 2018, Ministry of Corporate Affairs (âMCAâ) has notified the Ind AS 11 5, Revenue from Contract with Customers. The core principle of the new standard is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Further the new standard requires enhanced disclosures about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from the entityâs contracts with customers.
The standard permits two possible methods of transition:
-Retrospective approach - Under this approach the standard will be applied retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented in accordance with Ind AS 8- Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors.
-Retrospectively with cumulative effect of initially applying the standard recognized at the date of initial application (Cumulative catch - up approach)
The effective date for adoption of Ind AS 11 5 is financial periods beginning on or after April 1, 2018.
The Company is evaluating the requirements of the standard and the impact on the financial statements.

2 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
2.1 Statement of compliance
The financial statements of the company have been prepared in accordance with Ind ASs notified under the Companies (Indian accounting Standards) Rules 2015 and Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Amendment Rules, 2016 as applicable for all the periods upto and including quarter and the year ended March 31, 2016, the company prepared its financial statements in accordance with the requirements of previous GAAP, which includes Standards notified under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013. These are the company''s first Ind AS financial statements. The date of transition to Ind AS is April 1, 201 5. Refer Note no 41 for the details of first-time adoption exemption availed by the Company.
2.2 Basis of preparation and presentation
These financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, except for certain financial instruments which are measured at fair values at the end of each reporting period, as explained in the accounting policies below. Historical cost is generally based on the fair value of the consideration given in exchange for goods and services. 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.
2.3 Estimates
The preparation of these financial statements in conformity with the recognition and measurement principles of Ind AS requires the management of the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported balances of assets and liabilities, disclosures relating to contingent liabilities as at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expense for the periods presented.
Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimates are revised and future periods are affected. Key sources of estimation of uncertainty at the date of the financial statements, which may cause a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year, is in respect of impairment of investments, useful lives of property, plant and equipment and provisions and contingent liabilities.
2.3.1 Impairment of investments in subsidiaries
The Company reviews its carrying value of investments carried at amortized cost annually. If the recoverable amount is less than its carrying amount, the impairment loss is accounted for.
2.3.2 Useful lives of property, plant and equipment
The Company reviews the useful life of property, plant and equipment at the end of each reporting period. This reassessment may result in change in depreciation expense in future periods.
2.3.3 Provisions and contingent liabilities
A provision is recognized when the company has a present obligation as a result of past event and it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation, in respect of which a reliable estimate can be made. Provisions (excluding retirement benefits and compensated absences) are not discounted to its present value and are determined based on best estimate required to settle the obligation at the balance sheet date. These are reviewed at each balance sheet date adjusted to reflect the current best estimates. Contingent liabilities are not recognized in the financial statements.
2.4 Business combinations
Acquisitions of businesses are accounted for using the acquisition method. The consideration transferred in a business combination is measured at fair value, which is calculated as the sum of the acquisition- date fair values of the assets transferred by the company, liabilities incurred by the company to the former owners of the acquire and the equity interests issued by the company in exchange of control of the acquire. Acquisition-related cost are generally recognized in profit or loss as incurred.
2.5 Goodwill
Goodwill is measured as the excess of the sum of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non controlling interests in the acquire, and the fair value of the acquirer''s previously held equity interest in the acquire (if any) over the net of the acquisition-date amounts of the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed.
If the initial accounting for business combination is incomplete by the end of the reporting period in which the combination occurs, the Company reports provisional amounts for the items for which the accounting is incomplete. Those provisional amounts are adjusted during the measurement period, or additional assets or liabilities are recognized, to reflect new information obtained above facts and circumstances that existed at the acquisition date that, if known, would have affected the amounts recognized at that date.
Goodwill arising on acquisition of a business is carried at costs as established at the date of acquisition of the business less accumulated impairment losses, if any.
For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill is allocated to the specific cash-generating unit which is acquired as a part of the business combination.
The cash-generating unit to which goodwill has been allocated is tested for impairment annually. If the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit is less than its carrying amount, the impairment loss is allocated to reduce the carrying amount of the goodwill. Any impairment loss recognized for goodwill is not reversed in subsequent periods.
2.6 Revenue recognition
Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable. Revenue includes excise duty but excludes sales tax/VAT, discounts and returns as applicable.
2.6.1 Sale of goods
Revenue from the sale of goods is recognized when the goods are dispatched and titles have passed, at which time all the following conditions are satisfied:
- The company has transferred to the buyer the significant risk and rewards of ownership of the goods
- The company retains neither continuing managerial involvement to the degree usually associated with ownership nor effective control over the goods sold
- The amount of revenue can be measured reliably
- It is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the company and
- The cost incurred or to be incurred in respect of the transactions can be measured reliably.
2.6.2 Rendering of services
Revenue from rendering of services priced on a time and material basis is recognized on rendering of services as per the terms of contracts with customers.
2.6.3 Dividend and interest income
Dividend income from investments is recognized when the shareholder''s right to receive payment has been established.
Interest income from a financial asset is recognized when it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the company and the amount of the income can be measured reliably. Interest income is accrued on a time basis, by reference to the principal outstanding and the effective interest rate applicable, which is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset to that asset''s net carrying amount on initial recognition.
2.6.4 Rental income
The company''s policy for recognition of revenue from operating lease is described in note 2.7.1
2.7 Leasing-Operating
Leases are classified as finance lease whenever the terms of the lease transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the lessee. All other leases are classified as operating leases.
2.7.1 The Company as lessor
Rental income from operating leases is generally recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the relevant lease. Where the rentals are structured solely to increase in line with expected general inflation to compensate for the company''s expected inflationary cost increases, such increases are recognized in the year in which such benefits accrue. Initial direct costs incurred in negotiating and arranging an operating lease are added to the carrying amount of the leased asset and recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
2.7.2 The Company as lessee
Lease payments under operating leases are recognized as an expense on a straight line basis in the statement of profit and loss over the lease term except where the lease payments are structured to increase in line with expected general inflation.
2.8 Foreign currencies
Items included in the financial statements of the company are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (i.e. the "functional currency"). The financial statements are presented in Indian Rupee, the national currency for India, which is the functional currency of the company.
Transactions in currencies other than the entity''s functional currency (foreign currencies) are recognized at the rates of exchange prevailing at the date of the transactions. At the end of each reporting period, monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing at that date. Non-monetary items carried at fair value that are denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing at that date when the fair value was determined. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are not retranslated.
Exchange differences on monetary items are recognized in the statement of profit and loss.
2.9 Employee benefits
2.9.1. Long Term Employee Benefits
Long -Term Employee Benefits - Compensated Absences
Accumulated Compensated absences which fall due beyond 12 months is provided for in the books on actuarial valuation basis at the yearend using projected unit credit method.
Defined Contribution Plans
Superannuation fund. Provident fund and Pension fund are defined contribution plans towards which the company makes contribution at predetermined rates to the Superannuation Trust, and the Regional Provident Fund Commissioner respectively.

The Company also makes contributions to state plans namely Employee''s State Insurance Fund and Employee''s Pension Scheme 1995 and has no further obligation beyond making the payment to them.
Defined Benefit Plan
The liability for gratuity to employees as at the Balance sheet date is determined on the basis of actuarial valuation using Projected Unit Credit method. The amount is funded to a Gratuity fund administered by the trustees and managed by Life Insurance Corporation of India. The liability thereof is paid and absorbed in the statement of profit and loss at the yearend.
Remeasurement, comprising actuarial gain and losses and the return on plan assets (excluding net interest), is reflected immediately in the balance sheet with a charge or credit recognized in other comprehensive income in the period in which they occur. Remeasurement recognized in other comprehensive income is reflected in retained earnings and is not reclassified to profit or loss. Defined benefit costs are categorized as follows :
- Service cost (including current service cost, past service cost, as well as gains and losses on curtailments and settlements);
- Net interest expense or income;
- remeasurement
Termination benefits are recognized as an expense as and when incurred.
2.9.2 Short-term employee benefits
Short term employee benefits including performance incentive and compensated absences which are expected to occur within 12 months after the end of the period in which the employee renders related service are determined as per Company''s policy and recognized as expense based on expected obligation on undiscounted basis.
2.10 Taxation
Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax. Income tax expense is recognized in the statement of profit and loss except to the extent it relates to items directly recognized in equity orin other comprehensive income.
2.10.1 Current tax
Current income tax for the current and prior periods are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities based on the taxable income for the period. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the current tax amount are those that are enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date and applicable for the period. The Company offsets current tax assets and current tax liabilities, where it has a legally enforceable right to set off the recognized amounts and where it intends either to settle on a net basis or to realize the asset and liability simultaneously.
2.10.2 Deferred tax
Deferred income tax is recognized using the balance sheet approach. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for deductible and taxable temporary differences arising between the tax base of assets and liabilities and their carrying amount in financial statements, except when the deferred income tax arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and affects neither accounting nor taxable profits or losses at the time of the transaction.
Deferred income tax asset are recognized 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 utilized.
Deferred income tax liabilities are recognized for all taxable temporary differences.
The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets are 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 income tax asset to be utilized.
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period when the asset is realized or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.
2.11 Earnings per share
The basic earnings/ (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net profit attributable to equity shareholders for the year by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year. The number of shares used in computing diluted earnings per share comprises the weighted average shares considered for deriving basic earnings per share, and also the weighted average number of equity shares that could have been issued on the conversion of all dilutive potential equity shares.
2.12 Research and development costs
Revenue expenditure pertaining to research is charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss. Development costs of products are also charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss unless a product''s technical feasibility has been established, in which case such expenditure is capitalized. The amount capitalized comprises expenditure that can be directly attributed or allocated on a reasonable and consistent basis to creating, producing and making the asset ready for its intended use. Fixed assets utilized for research and development are capitalized and depreciated in accordance with the policies stated for Property, plant and equipment.
2.13 Property, Plant and equipment
Land and buildings held for use in the production or supply of goods or services, or for administrative purposes, are stated in the balance sheet at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Freehold land is not depreciated.
Tangible assets are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation / amortization and impairment losses, if any. The cost of tangible assets comprises its purchase price net of any trade discounts and rebates, any import duties and other taxes (other than those subsequently recoverable from the tax authorities), any directly attributable expenditure on making the asset ready for its intended use, other incidental expenses and interest on borrowings attributable to acquisition of qualifying tangible assets up to the date the asset is ready for its intended use. Machinery spares which can be used only in connection with an item of tangible asset and whose use is expected to be irregular are capitalized and depreciated over the useful life of the principal item of the relevant assets. Subsequent expenditure on tangible assets after its purchase / completion is capitalized only if such expenditure results in an increase in the future benefits from such asset beyond its previously assessed standard of performance.
Tangible assets acquired and put to use for project purpose are capitalized and depreciation thereon is included in the project cost till the project is ready for its intended use. Individual assets costing less than Rs.5, 000 each are depreciated in full in the year of acquisition.
Capital work-in-progress:
Projects under which tangible fixed assets are not yet ready for their intended use are carried at cost, comprising direct cost, related incidental expenses and attributable interest.
Depreciation
Depreciation is recognized so as to write of the cost of the assets (other than freehold land and properties under construction) less their residual values over their useful lives, using the straight-line method. The estimated useful lives, residual value and depreciation method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimate accounted for on a prospective basis.
Depreciation on tangible fixed assets has been provided on the straight-line method as per the useful life prescribed in Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013 except in respect of the used / Second hand machines & process bath equipments, in whose case the life of the assets has been assessed based on technical advice, taking into account the nature of the asset, the estimated usage of the asset, the operating conditions of the asset, past history of replacement, anticipated technological changes, manufacturers warranties and maintenance support, etc.
Depreciation on assets added /disposed off during the year is provided on pro-rata basis from the month of addition or up to the month prior to the month of disposal, as applicable.
An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognized upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset. Any gain or loss arising on the disposal or retirement of an item of property, plant and equipment is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and is recognized in profit or loss.
2.14 Intangible assets
2.14.1 Intangible assets acquired separately
Intangible assets with finite useful lives that are acquired separately are carried at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses. Amortization is recognized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. The estimated useful life and amortization method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimate being accounted for on a prospective basis.
2.14.2. Intangible assets acquired in a business combination
Intangible assets acquired in a business combination and recognized separately from goodwill are initially recognized at their fair value at the acquisition date (which is regarded as their cost)
2.14.3 Useful lives of intangible assets
2.15 Impairment of tangible and intangible assets other than goodwill
At the end of each reporting period, the company reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible and intangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the assets is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). When it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the company estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. When a reasonable and consistent basis of allocation can be identified, corporate assets are also allocated to individual cash-generating units, or otherwise they are allocated to the smallest group of cash-generating units for which a reasonable and consistent allocation basis can be identified.
Recoverable amount is higher of fair value less cost of disposal and value in use. 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 for which the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted.
If the recoverable amount of an asset (or cash-generating unit) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset (or cash-generating unit) is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognized immediately in profit or loss.
2.16 Inventories
Finished Goods and work-in-progress are valued at lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost comprises of materials, labour, and an appropriate proportion of production overheads and excise duty, wherever applicable and excludes interest, selling and distribution expenses. Cost is computed on weighted average basis. Raw materials, stores and spares are valued at lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost computed on weighted average basis includes freight, taxes and duties net of CENVAT/ VAT credit, wherever applicable. Net realizable value represents the estimated selling price for inventories less all estimated costs of completion and costs necessary to make the sale.
2.17 Provisions
Provisions are recognized when the company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that the company will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.
The amount recognized as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle present obligation at the end of reporting period, taking into account the risk and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. When a provision is measured using the cash flows estimated to settle the present obligation, its carrying amount is the present value of those cash flows (when the effect of the time value of money is material). When some or all of the economic benefits required to settle a provision are expected to be recovered from a third party, a receivable is recognized as an asset if it is virtually certain that reimbursement will be received and the amount of receivable can be measured reliably.
2.18 Financial Instruments
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognized when an entity become a party to the contractual provision of the instruments.
Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities (other than financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss) are added to or deducted from the fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition. Transactions costs directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are recognized immediately in profit or loss.
2.19 Financial assets
All regular way purchases or sales of financial assets are recognized and derecognized on a trade date basis. Regular way purchases or sales are purchases or sales of financial assets that require delivery of assets within the timeframe established by regulation or convention in the market place.
All recognized financial assets are subsequently measured in their entirety at either amortized cost or fair value, depending on the classification of the financial assets.
2.19.1. Classification of financial assets
Financial Assets that meet the following conditions are subsequently measured at amortized cost (except for financial assets that are designated as at fair value through profit or loss on initial recognition):
- The asset is held within business model whose objective is to hold assets in order to collect contractual cash flows; and
- the contractual terms of the instruments give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
Financial assets are presented as current assets, except for those maturing later than 12 months after the reporting date which are presented as non-current assets. Financial assets are measured initially at fair value plus transaction costs and subsequently carried at amortized cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment loss.
Amortized cost are represented by security deposits, cash and cash equivalents and eligible current and non-current assets. Cash and cash equivalent comprise cash on hand and in banks and demand deposit with banks which can be withdrawn at any time without prior notice or penalty on the principal.
For the purposes of cash flow statement, cash and cash equivalent include cash on hand, in banks and demand deposits with banks, net of outstanding bank overdrafts that are repayable on demand, book overdraft and are considered part of the company''s cash management system.
For the impairment policy on financial assets measured at amortized cost, refer Note 2.19.4
Financial assets that meet the following conditions are subsequently measured at fair value through other comprehensive income (except for financial assets that are designated as at fair value through profit or loss on initial recognition):
- the asset is held within a business model whose objective is achieved both by collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets; and
- the contractual terms of the instruments give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
2.19.2 Investment in equity instruments at FVTOCI
On initial recognition, the company can make an irrevocable election (on an instrument- by instrument basis) to present the subsequent changes in fair value in other comprehensive income pertaining to investment in equity instruments. This election is not permitted if the equity investment is held for trading. These elected investments are initially measured at fair value plus transaction costs. Subsequently, they are measured at fair value with gain and losses arising from changes in fair value recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in the ''Reserve for equity instrument through other comprehensive income''. The cumulative gain or loss is not reclassified to profit or loss on disposal of the investments.
2.19.3. Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL)
Financial asset at FVTPL are measured at fair value at the end of each reporting period, with any gains or losses arising on remeasurement recognized in profit or loss. The net gain or loss recognized in profit or loss incorporate any dividend or interest earned on the financial asset and is included in the ''Other income'' line item. Dividend on financial asset at FVTPL is recognized when the company''s right to receive the dividends is established. It is probable that the economic benefits associated with the dividend will flow to the entity, the dividend does not represent a recovery of part of cost of the investment and the amount can be measured reliably.
FVTPL is a residual category for financial assets. Any financial categorization as at amortized cost or as FVTOCI, is classified at FVTPL. In addition, the company may elect to designate the financial asset, which otherwise meets amortized cost or FVTOCI criteria, at FVTPL, if doing so eliminates or significantly reduces a measurement or recognition inconsistency.
2.19.4. Impairment of financial assets
The company measures the loss allowance for financial instruments at an amount equal to the lifetime expected credit losses if the credit risk on those financial instruments has increased significantly since initial recognition. If the credit risk on financial instruments has not increased significantly since initial recognition, the company measures the loss allowance for that financial instruments at an amount equal to 12 month expected credit losses. 12 month expected credit losses are portion of the lifetime expected credit losses and represents the lifetime cash shortfalls that will result if default occurs within the 12 months after the reporting date and thus, are not cash shortfalls that are predicted over the 12 months.
For trade receivables or any contractual rights to receive cash or another financial assets that result from transactions that are within the scope of Ind AS 11 and Ind AS 18, the company always measures the loss allowance at an amount equal to life time expected credit losses.
Further, for the purposes of measuring lifetime expected credit loss allowance for trade receivables, the company has used a practical expedient as permitted under Ind AS 109. This expected credit loss allowance is computed based on a provision matrix which takes into account historical credit loss experience and adjusted for forward-looking information.
2.20 First-time adoption - mandatory exceptions, optional exemptions
2.20.1 Overall principle
The company has prepared the opening balance sheet as per Ind AS as of April 1, 201 5 (the transition date) by recognizing all assets and liabilities whose recognition is required by Ind AS, not recognizing items of assets or liabilities which are not permitted by Ind AS, by reclassifying items from previous GAAP to Ind AS as required under Ind AS, and applying Ind AS in measurement of recognized assets and liabilities. However, this principle is subject to the certain exception and certain optional exemptions availed by the company as detailed below.
2.20.2 Investments in equity of subsidiaries
The company has elected to continue with the carrying value of its investments in equity instruments of subsidiary companies recognized as of April 1, 201 5 (transition date) measured as per the previous GAAP and use that carrying value as its cost as of the transition date.
2.21 New standards and interpretations not yet adopted
Amendment to Ind AS 7 :
The amendment to Ind AS 7 requires the entities to provide disclosures that enable users of financial statements to evaluate changes in liabilities arising from financing activities, including both changes arising from cash flows and non-cash changes, suggesting inclusion of a reconciliation between the opening and closing balances in the balance sheet for liabilities arising from financing activities to meet the disclosure requirement.
The Company is currently evaluating the requirements of the amendment and has not yet determined the impact on the financial statements.

end restatements are also recognised in the Statement of Profit and
Loss.
8 INVESTMENTS:

11 EARNINGS / (LOSS) PER SHARE:
The basic earnings/ (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net
profit attributable to equity shareholders for the year by the weighted
average number of equity shares outstanding during the year. The number
of shares used in computing diluted earnings per share comprises the
weighted average shares considered for deriving basic earnings per
share, and also the weighted average number of equity shares that could
have been issued on the conversion of all dilutive potential equity
shares.

year as determined in accordance with the applicable tax rates and the
provisions of the Income Tax Act, 1961 and other applicable tax laws.
Minimum Alternate Tax (MAT) paid in accordance with the tax laws, which
gives future economic benefits in the form of adjustment to future
income tax liability, is considered as an asset if there is convincing
evidence that the Company will pay normal income tax. Accordingly, MAT
is recognised as an asset in the Balance Sheet when it is highly
probable that future economic benefit associated with it will flow to
the Company.
Deferred tax is recognised on timing differences, being the differences
between the taxable income and the accounting income that originate in
one period and are capable of reversal in one or more subsequent
periods. Deferred tax is measured using the tax rates and the tax laws
enacted or substantively enacted as at the reporting date. Deferred tax
liabilities are recognised for all timing differences. Deferred tax
assets are recognised for timing differences of items other than
unabsorbed depreciation and carry forward losses only to the extent
that reasonable certainty exists that sufficient future taxable income
will be available against which these can be realised. However, if
there are unabsorbed depreciation and carry forward of losses and items
relating to capital losses, deferred tax assets are recognised only if
there is virtual certainty supported by convincing evidence that there
will be sufficient future taxable income available to realise the
assets. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if such items
relate to taxes on income levied by the same governing tax laws and the
Company has a legally enforceable right for such set off. Deferred tax
assets are reviewed at each balance sheet date for their realisability.
13 RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT:
Revenue expenditure pertaining to research is charged to the Statement
of Profit and Loss. Development costs of products are also charged to
the Statement of Profit and Loss unless a product's technical
feasibility has been established, in which case such expenditure is
capitalised. The amount capitalised comprises expenditure that can be
directly attributed or allocated on a reasonable and consistent basis
to creating, producing and making the asset ready for its intended use.
Fixed assets utilised for research and development are capitalised and
depreciated in accordance with the policies stated for Fixed Assets.
14 IMPAIRMENT OF ASSETS:
The carrying values of assets / cash generating units at each balance
sheet date are reviewed for impairment if any indication of impairment
exists. The intangible assets are tested for impairment each financial
year even if there is no indication that the asset is impaired.
If the carrying amount of the assets exceed the estimated recoverable
amount, an impairment is recognised for
such excess amount. The impairment loss is recognised as an expense in
the Statement of Profit and Loss, unless the asset is carried at
revalued amount, in which case any impairment loss of the revalued
asset is treated as a revaluation decrease to the extent a revaluation
reserve is available for that asset.
The recoverable amount is the greater of the net selling price and
their value in use. Value in use is arrived at by discounting the
future cash flows to their present value based on an appropriate
discount factor.
When there is indication that an impairment loss recognised for an
asset (other than a revalued asset) in earlier accounting periods no
longer exists or may have decreased, such reversal of impairment loss
is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss, to the extent the
amount was previously charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss. In
case of revalued assets such reversal is not recognised.
15 PROVISIONS AND CONTINGENCIES:
A provision is recognized when an enterprise has a present obligation
as a result of past event, that can be estimated reliably and it is
probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the
obligation in respect of which a reliable estimate can be made.
Provisions are not discounted to its present value and are determined
based on best estimate 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. When no reliable estimate can be made, a
disclosure is made as contingent liability and is disclosed by way of
notes. Contingent assets are not recognised in the financial
statements.
16 OPERATING CYCLE:
All assets and liabilities are classified as current or non-current as
per the Company's normal operating cycle and other criteria set out in
the Schedule III to the Companies Act, 2013. Normal operating cycle is
based on the time between the acquisition of assets for processing and
their realisation into cash and cash equivalents.
