a. Basis of Preparation of Financial Statements:
The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in
accordance with Indian Generally Accepted Accounting Principles
("GAAP") to comply with the Accounting Standards Specified under
section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013, read with Rule 7 of the
Companies (Accounts) Rules, 2014 and the relevant provision of the
Companies Act, 2013/ Companies Act, 1956, as applicable. The statements
have been prepared on accrual basis under the historical cost
convention. The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the
financial statements are consistent with those followed in the previous
year
b. Use of Estimates:
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting
policies, reported balances of assets and liabilities, disclosure of
contingent liabilities as on the date of the financial statements and
reported amounts of income and expenses during the period. Management
believes that the estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of
financial statements are prudent and reasonable. Actual results could
differ from those estimates. Any difference between the actual results
and estimates are recognized in the period in which the results are
known / materialize. Any revision to accounting estimates is recognized
prospectively in the current and future periods.
c. Fixed Assets:
Tangible assets are stated at cost of acquisition / construction less
accumulated depreciation, amortization and accumulated impairment
losses, if any.
Cost of fixed assets includes non - refundable taxes and duties,
borrowing cost directly attributable to the qualifying asset and any
directly attributable costs for bringing the asset to its working
condition for its intended use.
d. Depreciation/Amortization:
Depreciation is provided using written down value method at the rates
prescribed under Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013 adopting the
useful life for assets as specified therein and reckoning the residual
value at 5% of the original cost of the asset.
e. Investments:
a) Investments are classified into current and long-term investments.
b) Investments that are readily realizable and intended to be held for
not more than a year from the date on which such investments are made
are classified as current investments. All other investments are
classified as long-term investments.
c) Current investments are carried at lower of cost and fair value (net
asset value in case of units of mutual fund) determined on category
wise basis. Long term investments are carried at cost. However,
provision for diminution in value of long term investments is made to
recognize a decline, other than temporary, on an individual investment
basis. Investments in liquid mutual funds are classified as cash and
cash equivalents.
d) The cost of investments comprises purchase price and directly
attributable acquisition charges such as brokerage, fees and duties.
e) Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. In
determining the holding cost of investments and the gain or loss on
sale of investments, the Weighted Average method is followed.
f. Revenue Recognition:
a) Income from financing transaction is accounted for on basis of
internal Rate of Return method
b) All other incomes are accounted for on accrual basis.
g. Borrowing Costs:
Borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition,
construction or development of a qualifying asset are capitalized as
part of the cost of the respective asset till such time the asset is
ready for its intended use or sale. A qualifying asset is an asset
which necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for
its intended use or sale. All other borrowing costs are expensed in the
period in which they occur. Borrowing costs consist of interest,
exchange difference arising from foreign currency borrowings to the
extent they are treated as an adjustment to the borrowing cost and
other costs that an entity incurs in connection with the borrowing of
funds.
h. Taxes on Income:
a) Tax expenses comprise of current tax, deferred tax charge or credit
and adjustments of taxes for earlier years.
b) Provision for current tax is made as per the provisions of Income
Tax Act, 1961.
c) Deferred tax charge or credit reflects the impact of current year
timing differences between taxable income and accounting income for the
year and reversal of timing differences of earlier years and are
measured based on the tax rates and the tax laws enacted or
substantively enacted at the balance sheet date. Deferred tax assets
are recognized only to the extent there is reasonable certainty that
sufficient future taxable income will be available against which such
deferred tax assets can be realized. In situations where the Company
has unabsorbed depreciation or carry forward tax losses, all deferred
tax assets are recognized only if there is virtual certainty supported
by convincing evidence that they can be realized against future taxable
profits. Deferred tax assets are reviewed for the appropriateness of
their respective carrying amounts at each balance sheet date. At each
balance sheet date the Company re-assesses unrecognized deferred tax
assets. It recognizes unrecognized deferred tax assets to the extent
that it has become reasonably/ virtually certain as the case may be
that sufficient future taxable income will be available against which
such deferred tax assets can be realized.
i. Cash and Cash Equivalents:
Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, bank balances, deposits
with banks (other than on lien) and all short term highly liquid
investments / mutual funds that are readily convertible into known
amounts of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in
value.
j. Cash Flow Statement:
Cash flows are reported using the indirect method, where by net profit
before tax 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 are segregated.
k. Earnings per share:
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net profit or
loss after tax for the year attributable to equity shareholders 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 number of shares considered for deriving
basic earnings per share and also the weighted average number of shares
which could have been issued on conversion of all dilutive potential
equity shares.
l. Provisions and Contingent liabilities:
A provision is recognized when the Company has a present obligation as
a result of past events 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 thier
present value and are determined based on management's 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
management estimates. Provisions are recognized in the financial
statements in respect of present probable obligations, for amounts
which can be reliably estimated.
Contingent Liabilities are disclosed in respect of possible obligations
that arise from past events, whose existence would be confirmed by the
occurrence or non occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not
wholly within the control of the Company.
