The Standalone Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in India including Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS) prescribed under the Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013, Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 as amended and relevant provisions of the Companies Act, 2013 including presentation and disclosure requirements of Division II of Schedule III of the Act as amended from time to time.
Accordingly, the Company has prepared these Financial Statements which comprise the Balance Sheet as at March 31, 2024, the Statement of Profit and Loss for the year ended March 31, 2024, the Statement of Cash Flows for the year ended March 31, 2024 and the Statement of Changes in Equity for the year ended as on that date, and accounting policies and other explanatory information (together hereinafter referred to as ' Financial Statements’).
In addition, the financial statements are presented in INR which is also the Company's functional currency and all values are rounded to the nearest Crore except when otherwise indicated.
(b) Basis Of Measurement:
The financial statements of the company are prepared in accordance with Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS), under the historical cost convention on the accrual basis as per the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013 ("the Act”), except for:
- Financial instruments - measured at fair value;
- Plan assets under defined benefit plans - measured at fair value
- In addition, the carrying values of recognised assets and liabilities, designated as hedged items in fair value hedges that would otherwise be carried at
cost, are adjusted to record changes in the fair values attributable to the risks that are being hedged in effective hedge relationships.
(c) Significant Accounting Estimates, Judgements Assumptions:
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with Ind AS requires the management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions. These estimates, judgments and assumptions affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the period. Actual results could differ from those estimates according to the nature of the assumption and other circumstances. This note provides an overview of the areas where there is a higher degree of judgment or complexity. Detailed information about each of these estimates and judgments is included in relevant notes together with information about the basis of calculation.
The following are areas involving critical estimates and judgments:
Judgements:
- Leases
- Evaluation of recoverability of deferred tax assets, and estimation of income tax payable and income tax expense in relation to an uncertain tax position
- Provisions and Contingencies Estimates:
- Impairment
- Accounting for Defined benefit plans
- Useful lives of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets
- Fair Valuation of Financial instruments
- Valuation of inventories
(d) Current and Non-Current Classification:
The Company presents assets and liabilities in the Balance sheet based on current/non-current classification, an asset is treated as current when it is:
i) Expected to be realized or intended to be sold or consumed in normal operating cycle, or
ii) Held primarily for the purpose of trading, or
iii) Expected to be realized within twelve months after the reporting period, or
iv) Cash or cash equivalent unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period
A liability is treated as current when it is:
(i) Expected to be settled in normal operating cycle, or
(ii) Held primarily for the purpose of trading, or
(iii) Due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period, or
(iv) There is no unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period
All other assets and liabilities are classified as non-current assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as non-current assets and liabilities.
The operating cycle is the time between the acquisition of assets for processing and their realization in cash and cash equivalents. The Company has identified twelve months as its operating cycle.
(e) Property, Plant and equipment, Intangible Assets and
Depreciation/Amortization:
1. Property, Plant and Equipment (PPE)
PPEs held for use in the production, supply or administrative purposes, are stated in the balance sheet at cost less applicable accumulated depreciation/amortisation and accumulated impairment losses (if any).
The cost of PPE comprises its purchase price (including the costs of materials / components) 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, including relevant borrowing costs for qualifying assets including exchange differences arising from foreign currency borrowings to the extent that they are regarded as an adjustment to interest costs and such other incidental costs that may be associated with acquisition or creation of the asset ready for its intended use.
An item or part of PPE is derecognized upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use. Any gain or loss arising on de-recognition of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in the Statement of Profit & Loss as and when the asset is derecognized.
PPE which are not ready for intended use as on the date of Balance Sheet are disclosed as "Capital work-in-progress”. Capital Work-in-Progress represents expenditure incurred on capital assets that are under construction/erection or are pending to be commercialized and put to use. The same is
carried at cost which is determined in the same manner as for any PPE.
2. Intangible Assets
Intangible assets are recognised when it is probable that the future economic benefits that are attributable to the asset will flow to the Company and the cost of the asset can be measured reliably. Intangible assets are stated at original cost net of tax/duty credits availed, if any, less accumulated amortisation and cumulative impairment. Administrative and other general overhead expenses that are specifically attributable to acquisition of intangible assets are allocated and capitalised as a part of the cost of the intangible assets. Intangible development costs are capitalised as and when technical and commercial feasibility of the asset is demonstrated and future economic benefits are probable.
The useful lives of intangible assets are assessed as either finite or indefinite. Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized over the useful economic life and assessed for impairment whenever there is an indication that the intangible asset may be impaired. The amortization period and the amortization method for an intangible asset with a finite useful life are reviewed at least at the end of each reporting period.
Gains or losses arising from de-recognition of an intangible asset are measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss when the asset is derecognised.
3. Depreciation/Amortization
Pursuant to the notification of Schedule II of the Companies Act, 2013, the management has reassessed and changed based on technical estimates, wherever necessary, the useful lives to compute depreciation, to confirm to the requirements of the Companies Act, 2013. The useful life for various class of assets is as follows:
Assets Class
|
Useful Life
|
Leasehold Land
|
Over the remaining tenure of lease
|
Building
|
Over a period of 3 - 31 years
|
Residential Quarters
|
Over a period of 30 years

|
Intangible assets (including Product / Process Development)
|
Over a period of 5-7 years, except for those where the finite periods are provided for
|
Leasehold
Improvements
|
Over the remaining tenure of lease
|
4. Impairment
The Company assesses at each reporting that the carrying amounts of its property, plant and equipment, intangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the Company estimates the asset’s recoverable amount.
Impairment loss, if any, is provided to the extent, the carrying amount of assets exceeds their recoverable amount. Recoverable amount is higher of net selling price of an asset or its value in use. Value in use is the present value of estimated future cash flows expected to arise from the continuing use of an asset and from its disposal at the end of its useful life.
(f) Research and Development:
Research costs are expensed as incurred.
Development expenditures on an individual project are
recognised as an intangible asset when the Company can
demonstrate:
- development costs can be measured reliably;
- the product or process is technically and commercially feasible;
- future economic benefits are probable; and
- the company intends to, and has sufficient resources to complete development and to use or sell the asset. Following initial recognition of the development expenditure as an asset, the asset is carried at cost less any accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses. Amortisation of the asset begins when development is complete and the asset is available for use. It is amortised over the period of expected future benefit. Amortisation expense is recognised in the statement of profit and loss unless such expenditure forms part of carrying value of another asset. During the period of development, the asset is tested for impairment annually.
(g) Intangible Assets Under Development:
Expenditure incurred on acquisition/development of intangible assets which are not ready for their intended use at balance sheet date are disclosed under intangible assets under development.
(h) Valuation of Inventories:
Inventories have been valued on the following basis:
Raw Materials, Packing Material, Stores and Spares and Traded goods
|
At cost on weighted Average basis Or net realisable value whichever is lower. Cost includes cost of purchase and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition.
|
Work-in
Process
|
At cost plus appropriate allocation of overheads or net realisable value whichever is lower.
|
Finished Good
|
At cost plus appropriate allocation of overheads or net realizable value, whichever is lower.
|
Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.
Provisions are made for obsolete and non-moving inventories. Unserviceable and scrap items, when determined, are valued at estimated net realisable value.
(i) Revenue Recognition:
Ind AS 115 applies, with limited exceptions, to all revenue arising from contracts with its customers. Ind AS 115 establishes a five-step model to account for revenue arising from contracts with customers and requires that revenue be recognized at an amount that reflects the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring goods or services to a customer.
Ind AS 115 requires entities to exercise judgment, taking into consideration all of the relevant facts and circumstances when applying each step of the model to contracts with their customers. It also specifies the accounting for the incremental costs of obtaining a contract and the costs directly related to fulfilling a contract.
(i) Sale of Goods
Revenue from sale of goods is recognised when control of the products being sold is transferred to our customer and when there are no longer any unfulfilled obligations. Income from services rendered is recognised based on agreements/ arrangements with the customers as the service is performed and there are no unfulfilled obligations.
The Company recognizes net revenue from goods sold and services rendered at Transaction Price which is the amount of consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for transferring promised goods or services to a customer, excluding the amounts collected on behalf of a third party. The Transaction price is net of discounts, sales incentives, rebates granted, returns, sales taxes, GST and duties and any other recoverable taxes.
Generally, In case of domestic sales, performance obligations are satisfied when the goods are dispatched or delivery is handed over to transporter, revenue from export of goods is recognized at the time of Bill of lading or airway bill or any other similar document evidencing delivery thereof.
(ii) Interest Income
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 income can be measured reliably. Interest income is accrued on a time basis, by reference to the principle outstanding and at 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.
(iii) Dividend Income
Revenue is recognized when the Company’s right to receive the dividend is established, which is generally when shareholders approve the dividend.
(iv) Export Benefits
Export incentives are recognized as income when the right to receive credit as per the terms of the scheme is established in respect of the exports made and where there is no significant uncertainty regarding the ultimate collection of the relevant export proceeds.
(v) Subsidy Received
Subsidy from the Department of Fertilizers is recognised, based on the eligible quantities supplied by the Company, at the rates as notified/announced by the Government of India.
(j) Financial Instruments:
Recognition and initial measurement
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when an entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value. However, Trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component are measured at transaction price. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit and loss are recognised immediately in the Statement of Profit and Loss. 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 Statement of Profit and Loss (FVTPL)) are added to or deducted from the fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition.
Classification and Subsequent Measurement of Financial Assets:
The Company classifies financial assets, subsequently at amortised cost, Fair Value through Other Comprehensive Income ("FVTOCI”) or Fair Value through Profit or Loss ("FVTPL”) on the basis of following:
- the entity’s business model for managing the financial assets and
- the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial asset.
(a) Financial Assets measured at Amortised Cost:
A Financial Asset is measured at amortised Cost if it is held within a business model whose objective is to hold the asset in order to collect contractual cash flows and the contractual terms of the Financial Asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that represent solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
( b) Financial Assets measured at Fair Value Through Other Comprehensive Income (FVTOCI):
A Financial Asset is measured at FVTOCI if it is held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling Financial Assets and the contractual terms of the Financial Asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that represent solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
(c) Financial Assets measured at Fair Value Through Profit or Loss (FVTPL):
FVTPL is a residual category for financial assets. Any financial asset, which does not meet the criteria for categorization as at amortised cost or as FVTOCI, is classified as at FVTPL.
Classification and Subsequent Measurement of Financial Liabilities:
(a) Financial liabilities measured at Fair Value Through Profit or Loss (FVTPL):
Financial liabilities are classified as FVTPL when the financial liability is held for trading or is a derivative (except for effective hedge) or are designated upon initial recognition as FVTPL. Gains or Losses, including
any interest expense on liabilities held for trading are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
(b) Other Financial Liabilities:
Other financial liabilities (including loans and borrowings, bank overdrafts and trade and other payables) are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments (including all fees and amounts paid or received that form an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and other premiums or discounts) through the expected life of the financial liability, or (where appropriate) a shorter period, to the amortised cost on initial recognition.
Interest expense (based on the effective interest method), foreign exchange gains and losses, and any gain or loss on derecognition is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
For trade and other payables maturing within one year from the Balance Sheet date, the carrying amounts approximate fair value due to the short maturity of these instruments.
Debt and Equity Instruments:
Debt and equity instruments issued by the Company are classified as either financial liabilities or as equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangements and the definitions of a financial liability and an equity instrument. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of an entity after deducting all of its liabilities. Equity instruments issued by a Company are recognised at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs.
Equity Investments
All equity investments (excluding the investments in Subsidiaries) in the scope of Ind AS 109 are measured at fair value. Equity instruments which are held for trading are classified as at FVTPL. For all other equity instruments, the company may make an irrevocable election to present in other comprehensive income subsequent changes in the fair value. The company makes such election on an instrument-by-instrument basis. The classification is made on initial recognition and is irrevocable. If the company decides to classify an equity instrument as at FVTOCI, then all fair value changes on the instrument, excluding dividends, are recognized in the OCI. There is no recycling of the amounts from OCI to the statement of profit and loss, even on sale of investment. However, the company may transfer the cumulative gain or loss within equity. Equity instruments included within the FVTPL category are measured at fair value with all changes recognized in the statement of profit and loss.
Investments in Subsidiaries:
Investments in subsidiaries are carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses, if any. Where an indication of impairment exists, the carrying amount of the investment is assessed and written down immediately to its recoverable amount. On disposal of investments in subsidiaries, the difference between net disposal proceeds and the carrying amounts are recognised in the statement of profit and loss.
De-recognition of Financial Instruments:
The Company derecognises a Financial Asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the Financial Asset expire or it transfers the Financial Asset and the transfer qualifies for de-recognition under Ind AS 109. In cases where Company has neither transferred nor retained substantially all of the risks and rewards of the financial asset, but retains control of the financial asset, the Company continues to recognize such financial asset to the extent of its continuing involvement in the financial asset. In that case, the Company also recognizes an associated liability. The financial asset and the associated liability are measured on a basis that reflects the rights and obligations that the Company has retained.
A Financial liability (or a part of a financial liability) is derecognised from the Company’s Balance Sheet when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged or cancelled or expires. When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as the derecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability.
The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability de-recognised and the consideration paid and payable is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Impairment of Financial Assets:
In accordance with Ind AS 109, the Company uses 'Expected Credit Loss’ (ECL) model, for evaluating impairment of all Financial Assets subsequent to initial recognition other than financial assets measured at fair value through profit and loss (FVTPL). The Company uses historical default rates to determine impairment loss on the portfolio of trade receivables. At every reporting date these historical default rates are reviewed and changes in the forward-looking estimates are analysed. For other financial assets, the Company uses 12 month ECL to provide for impairment loss where there is no significant increase in credit risk since its initial recognition. If there is significant increase in credit risk since its initial recognition full lifetime ECL is used. The impairment losses and reversals are recognised in Statement of Profit and Loss.
ECL is the difference between all contractual cash flows that are due to the Company in accordance with the contract and all the cash flows that the entity expects to receive (i.e., all cash shortfalls), discounted at the original EIR.
Offsetting of Financial Instruments:
Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and presented on net basis in the balance sheet when there is a legally enforceable right to set-off the recognised amounts and it is intended to either settle them on net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
In determining the fair value of its financial instruments, the Company uses a variety of methods and assumptions that are based on market conditions and risks existing at each reporting date. The methods used to determine fair value include discounted cash flow analysis and available quoted market prices, where applicable. All methods of assessing fair value result in general approximation of value, and such value may never actually be realized.
Financial instruments by category are separately disclosed indicating carrying value and fair value of financial assets and liabilities. For financial assets and liabilities maturing within one year from the Balance Sheet date and which are not carried at fair value, the carrying amounts approximate fair value due to the short maturity of these instruments.
Derivative Financial Instruments:
Derivative financial instruments such as forward contracts, option contracts and cross currency swaps, to hedge its foreign currency risks are initially recognised at fair value on the date a derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently re-measured at their fair value with changes in fair value recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss in the period when they arise.
Cash Flow Hedge
At inception of designated hedging relationships, the Company documents the risk management objective and strategy for undertaking the hedge. The Company also documents the economic relationship between the hedged item and the hedging instrument, including whether the changes in cash flows of the hedged item and hedging instrument are expected to offset each other.
The company is exposed to foreign exchange risk arising from foreign currency transactions, primarily with respect to USD. Foreign exchange risk arises from future commercial transactions and recognised assets and liabilities denominated in a currency that is not the company’s functional currency (INR).
The risk is measured through a forecast of highly probable foreign currency cash flows. The objective of the hedges is to minimise the volatility of the INR cash flows of highly probable forecast transactions. The company risk management policy is to hedge forecasted foreign currency sales for the subsequent 12 to 36 months. As per the risk management policy, appropriate foreign currency hedges are executed or undertaken to hedge forecasted sales.
The spot component of forward contracts is determined with reference to relevant spot market exchange rates. The differential between the contracted forward rate and the spot market exchange rate is defined as the forward points.
When a derivative is designated as a cash flow hedging instrument, the effective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is recognised in OCI and accumulated in other equity under 'effective portion of cash flow hedges’. The effective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative that is recognised in OCI is limited to the cumulative change in fair value of the hedged item, determined on a present value basis, from inception of the hedge. Any ineffective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is recognised immediately in statement of profit and loss.
If a hedge no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting or the hedging instrument is sold, expires, is terminated or is exercised, then hedge accounting is discontinued prospectively. When hedge accounting for cash flow hedges is discontinued, the amount that has been accumulated in other equity remains there until, for a hedge of a transaction resulting in recognition of a non-financial item, it is included in the non-financial item’s cost on its initial recognition or, for other cash flow hedges, it is reclassified to profit or loss in the same period or periods as the hedged expected future cash flows affect profit or loss.
If the hedged future cash flows are no longer expected to occur, then the amounts that have been accumulated in other equity are immediately classified to statement of profit and loss.
(k) Cash and Cash Equivalents:
For the purpose of presentation in the Balance sheet, Cash and Cash equivalents comprises cash at bank and on hand and other short-term, highly liquid investments with an original maturity (or with an option to or can be readily converted or liquidated into cash) of three months or less, which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. Cash and Cash Equivalents consist of balances with banks which are unrestricted for withdrawals and usages.
For the purpose of presentation in the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents includes cash at bank and on hand and other short-term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.
(l) Provisions:
Provisions are recognized when the Company has a present obligation (legal and constructive) as a result of a past event, for which it is probable that a Cash Outflow will be required and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.
(m) Lease:
The Company has adopted Ind AS 116. It has resulted into recognition of Lease Assets Right to Use with a corresponding Lease Liability in the Balance Sheet.
The Company, as a lessee, recognises a right to use asset and a lease liability for its leasing arrangements, if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset.
The contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset, if it involves the use of an identified asset and the Company has substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the asset and has right to direct the use of the identified asset. The cost of the right to use asset shall comprise of the amount of the initial measurement of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or before the commencement date plus any initial direct costs incurred. The right to use assets is subsequently measured at cost less any accumulated depreciation, accumulated impairment losses, if any and adjusted for any remeasurement of the lease liability. The right-of-use assets are depreciated using the straight-line method from the commencement date over the shorter of lease term or useful life of right-of-use asset.
The Company measures the lease liability at the present value of the future lease payments. The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease, if that rate can be readily determined. If that rate cannot be readily determined, the Company uses incremental borrowing rate.
For short-term and low value leases, the Company recognises the lease payments as an operating expense.
(n) Employee Benefits :
(a) Employee Benefits:
All employee benefits such as salaries, wages, short-term compensated absences, expected cost of bonus, etc. are recognised in the period in which the employee renders the related services.
(b) Post-Employment Benefits:
(i) Defined Contribution Plan:
The Company makes defined contributions to Employee Provident Fund, Employee Pension Fund, Employee Deposit Linked Insurance, and superannuation Schemes. The contribution paid/payable under these schemes is recognised during the period in which the employee renders the related services which are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss on accrual basis during the period in which the employee renders the services.
(ii) Defined Benefit Plan
The gratuity liability of the company is funded through a Group Gratuity Scheme with Life Insurance Corporation of India (LIC) under which the annual contribution is paid to LIC. The Company’s liability under Payment of Gratuity Act is determined on the basis of actuarial valuation made at the end of each financial year using the projected unit credit method. The obligation is measured at the present value of the estimated future cash flows using a discount rate based on the market yield on government securities where the terms of government securities are consistent with the estimated terms of the defined benefit obligations at the Balance Sheet date. The Company recognizes the net obligation of a defined benefit plan in its Balance Sheet as an asset or liability. Gains and losses through re-measurements of the net defined benefit liability / (asset) are recognized in other comprehensive income and are not reclassified to profit or loss in subsequent periods.
(c) Share Based Payment:
The grant date fair value of options granted to employees is recognized as an employee expense, with a corresponding increase in equity, over the period that the employees become unconditionally entitled to the options. The expense is recorded for each separately vesting portion of the award as if the award was, in substance, multiple awards. The increase in Other Equity recognized in connection with share based payment transaction is presented as a separate component in equity under "Employee Share Based Payment Reserve”. The amount recognized as an expense is adjusted to reflect the actual number of stock options that vest.
(o) Foreign Currency Transactions:
I tems included in the Standalone Financial Statements of the Company are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the Company operates (functional currency). The Standalone Financial Statements of the Company are presented in Indian currency (H), which is also the functional currency of the Company.
Foreign currency transactions are recorded on initial recognition in the functional currency, using the exchange rate as applicable in the period of such transaction. Exchange differences that arise on settlement of monetary items or on reporting of monetary items at each reporting period are appropriately dealt in the financial statements in accordance with the applicable Indian Accounting standards.
(p) Income Taxes:
I ncome tax expense comprises of current tax expense and deferred tax expenses.
Current and deferred taxes are recognized in Statement of Profit and Loss, except when they relate to items that are recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case, the current and deferred tax are also recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, respectively.
Current Income Tax:
Current tax is the amount of tax payable on the taxable income for the year as determined in accordance with the provisions of the Income Tax Act of the respective jurisdiction. The current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted, at the reporting date.
Deferred Tax :
Deferred tax is recognised on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the company’s financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in computation of taxable profit and quantified using the tax rates and laws enacted or substantively enacted as on the Balance Sheet date.
Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences at the reporting date between the tax base of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes. Deferred tax assets are recognised for all taxable temporary differences to the extent that is probable that taxable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary differences can be utilised.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the assets are to be recovered. Unrecognized deferred tax assets are reassessed at the end of each reporting period and are recognized to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the deferred tax assets to be recovered.
The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the company expects, at the end of reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.
Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to set-off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle the asset and the liability on a net basis.
Minimum Alternate Tax (MAT) :
MAT credit is recognised as an asset only when and to the extent it is reasonably certain that the Company will pay normal income tax during the specified period. Such asset is reviewed at each Balance Sheet date and the carrying amount of the MAT credit asset is written down to the extent there is no longer a convincing evidence to the effect that the Company will pay normal income tax during the specified period.
(q) Borrowing Costs:
Borrowing costs, general or specific, that are attributable to the acquisition or construction of qualifying assets is capitalized as part of such assets. A qualifying asset is one that necessarily takes substantial period of time to get ready for intended use. All other borrowing costs are charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss.
(r) Contingent Liabilities Contingent Liability is:
(a) a possible obligation that arises from past events and whose existence will be confirmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of the entity; or
(b) a present obligation that arises from past events but is not recognised because:
(i) it is not probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation; or
(ii) the amount of the obligation cannot be measured with sufficient reliability
