3.6 Significant Accounting Policies
a) Revenue Recognition
Revenue is recognized to the extent that it is possible that the economic benefits will flow the Company and the revenue can be reliably measured, regardless of when the payment is being made. Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, taking into account contractually defined terms of payment and excluding taxes or duties collected on behalf of the government.
i. The company recognizes revenue from contracts with customers based on a five step model as set out in Ind AS 115:
Step 1: Identify contract(s) with a customer: A contract is defined as an agreement between two or more parties that creates enforceable rights and obligations and sets out the criteria for every contract that must be met.
Step 2: Identify performance obligations in the contract: A performance obligation is a promise in a contract with a customer to transfer a good or service to the customer.
Step 3: Determine the transaction price: The transaction price is the amount of consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring promised goods or services to a customer, excluding amounts collected on behalf of the third parties.
Step 4: Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract: For a contract that has more than one performance obligation, the Company allocates the transaction price to each performance obligation in an amount that depicts the amount of consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for satisfying each performance obligation.
Step 5: Recognize revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies a performance obligation.
ii. Interest Income
Interest income from a financial asset is recognized when it is probable that the economic benefits will flow the Company and the amount of income can be measured reliably. Interest income is accrued on a timely basis, by reference to the principal 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 the asset's net carrying amount on initial recognition.
iii. Dividend
Dividend income is recognized when the right to receive dividend is established.
b) Government Grant
Government Grant are recognized where there is a reasonable assurance that the grant will be received and all the attached condition will be complied with.
When the grant relates to an expenses item, it is recognized as income on a systematic basis over the periods that the related costs, for which it is intended to compensate, are expensed.
Grants related to specified fixed assets are deducted from the gross value of the concerned assets in arriving at their book values.
c) Taxation
Income Tax represents the sum of current and deferred tax (including MAT).
Current income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the amount to be recovered from or paid to taxation authorities. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.
Income tax expenses is recognized in the Statement of Profit & Loss, except to the extent that it relates to items recognized directly in equity or other comprehensive income, in such cases the tax is also recognized directly in equity or in other comprehensive income.
Deferred tax is recognized on differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the Balance Sheet and the tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit.
Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognized for all taxable temporary differences, and deferred tax assets are generally recognized for all deductible temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probable that future tax payable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary differences and the carry forward to unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilized. Deferred tax assets and Deferred tax liabilities are set off, and presented as net.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each Balance Sheet date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilized.
Minimum Alternative Tax (MAT) is applicable to the Company. Credit of MAT is recognized as an asset only when and to the extent there is convincing evidence that the company will pay normal income tax during the specified period, i.e, the period for which MAT credit is allowed to the carried forward. In the year in which the MAT credit becomes eligible to be recognized as an asset, the said asset is credited by way of a credit to the Profit & Loss Account and shown as MAT credit entitlement. The company reviews the same at each Balance Sheet date and writes down the carrying amount of MAT credit entitlement to the extent there is no longer convincing evidence to the effect that the Company will pay normal income tax during the specified period.
d) Property, Plant & Equipment
The company considers the previous GAAP carrying value for all its Property, Plant & Equipment as deemed cost at the transition date, viz. 1st April'2016.
Property, Plant & Equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment of loss, if any.
Cost of any item of property, plant & equipment comprises its purchase price including import duties and non- refundable purchase taxes, after deducting trade discounts and rebated, any directly attributable cost of bringing the item to its working condition.
Depreciation is provided on the straight line method by depreciating carrying amount of Property, Plant & Equipment over remaining useful life of the assets.
Depreciation methods, useful life and residual values are reviewed at each financial year end.
The useful life and residual value as per such review is normally in accordance with schedule II of the Companies Act,2013.
The gain or loss arising on the disposal or retirement of an item of Property, Plant & Equipment is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the assets and is recognition in the Statement of Profit & Loss on the date of disposal or retirement.
e) Intangible Assets
Intangible Assets are stated at cost less accumulated amortization and impairment. Intangible Assets are amortized over their respective individual estimated useful life on a straight line method.
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 recognized in the statement of profit or loss when the asset is derecognized.
f) Impairment of Assets
The Company assesses at each Balance Sheet date whether there is any indication that a Property, plant & equipment May have been impaired. If any such indication exists, the Company estimates the recoverable amount of the Property, plant & equipment. If such recoverable amount of the Property, plant & equipment or the recoverable amount of the cash generating unit to which the Property, plant & equipment belongs is less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount is reduced to its recoverable amount. The reduction is treated as an impairment loss and its recognized in the profit & loss. If at the Balance Sheet date there is an indication that if a previously assessed impairment loss no longer exists, the recoverable amount is reassessed and the asset is reflected at the recoverable amount subject to a maximum of depreciated historical cost.
g) Inventories
Inventories are stated at lower of cost and net realizable value. The cost is calculated on First in First Out (FIFO) method except work in progress which is valued at raw material cost plus conversion costs depending upon the stages of completion. Cost comprises expenditure incurred in the normal course of business in bringing such inventories to its present location and condition and includes, where applicable, appropriate overheads based on normal level of activity. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price less estimated cost for completion and sale.
h) Borrowing Costs
Interest and other costs connected with the borrowing for the acquisition/ construction of qualifying fixed assets are capitalized up to the date when such assets are ready for their intended use and other borrowing cost are charged to Statement of Profit & Loss. Borrowing cost includes exchange difference to the extent regarded as an adjustment to the borrowing cost.
i) Lease
The Company evaluates if an arrangement qualifies to be a lease as per the requirements of IND AS 116. Identification of a lease requires significant judgement. The Company uses significant judgement in assessing the lease term (including anticipated renewals) and the applicable discount rate.
The company determines the lease term as the non- cancellable period of a lease, together with both periods covered by an option to extended the lease if the Company is reasonably certain to exercise that option; and periods covered by an option to terminated the lease if the company is reasonably certain to exercise that option. In assessing whether the Company is reasonably certain to exercise an option to extend a lease, or not to exercise an option to terminate a lease, it considers all relevant facts and circumstances that create an economic incentive for the company to exercise the option to extend the lease, or not to exercise the option to terminate the lease. The Company revises the lease term if there is a change in the non- cancellable period of a lease.
The discount rate is generally based on the incremental borrowing rate specified to the lease being evaluated or for a portfolio of leases with similar characteristics.
Company as a lessee
The Company accounts for such lease component within the contract as a lease separately from non- lease components of the contract and allocates the consideration in the contract to each lease component based on the relative stand- alone price of the lease component and the aggregate stand- alone price of the non- lease components.
The Company recognizes right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term at the lease commencement date. The cost of the right-of-use asset measured at inception 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 less any lease incentives received, plus any initial direct costs incurred and an estimate of costs to be incurred by the lessee in dismantling and removing the underlying asset or restoring the underlying asset or site on which it is located. The right of use assets is subsequently measured at cost less any accumulated depreciation, accumulated impairment losses, if any and adjusted for any re- measurement of the lease liability. The right-of-use asset 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 estimated useful lives of right-of-use assets are determined on the same basis as those of property, plant & equipment. Right-of-use assets are tested for impairment whenever there is any indicate loss, if any, is recognized in the Statement of Profit & Loss.
The Company measures the lease liability at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at the commencement date of the lease. The lease payments are discontinued using the interest rate implicit in the lease, if that rate can be readily determined. If that rate cannot be readily determined, the Company can use incremental borrowing rate. For leases with reasonably similar Characteristics, the Company, on a lease-by-lease basis, may adopt either the incremental borrowing rate specified the lease or the incremental borrowing rate for the portfolio as a whole. The lease payments shall include fixed payments, variable lease payments, residual value guarantees, exercise price of a purchase option where the Company is reasonably certain to exercise that option and payments of penalties for terminating the lease. The lease liability is subsequently re- measured by increasing the carrying amount to reflect interest on the lease liability, reducing the carrying amount to reflect the lease payments made and re-measuring the carrying amount to reflect any re-assessment or lease modifications or to reflect revised in-substance fixed lease payments. The Company recognizes the amount of the re- measurement of lease liability due to modification as on adjustment to the right-of-use asset and Statement of Profit & Loss depending upon the nature of modification. Where the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset is reduced to zero and there is a further reduction in the measurement of the lease liability, the
Company recognizes any remaining amount of the re- measurement in Statement of Profit & Loss.
Company as a lessor
At the inception of the lease the company classifies each of its leases as either an operating lease or a finance lease. The Company recognizes lease payments received under operating leases as income on a straight line basis over the lease term. In case of a finance lease, finance income is recognized over the lease term based on a pattern reflecting a constant periodic rate of the return on the lessor's net investment in the lease. When the company is an intermediate lessor it accounts for its interests in the head lease and the sub lease separately. It assesses the lease classification of a sub- lease with reference to the right of use asset arising from the head lease, not with reference to the underlying asset. If a head lease is a short term lease to which the Company applies the exemption described above, then it classifies the sub¬ lease as an operating lease.
The Company has elected not to apply the requirements of Ind AS 116 leases to short term leases of all assets that have a lease term of 12 months or less and leases for which the underlying assets is of low value. The lease payments associated with these leases are recognized as an expenses on a straight- line basis over the lease term.
j) Foreign Currencies Translations
Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded in reporting currency by the company at spot rates at the date the transaction first qualifies for recognition.
Monetary assets are liabilities denominated in are translated at functional currency spot rates of exchange at the reporting date. Exchange differences arising on settlement or translation of monetary items are recognized in statement of profit and loss.
Non- monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the dates of the initial transactions. Non-monetary items measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value is determined. The gain or loss arising on translation of non-monetary items measured at fair value is treated in line with the recognized of the gain or loss on the change in fair value of the item (i.e., translation differences on items whose fair value gain or loss is recognized in OCI or statement profit or loss are also recognized in OCI or statement profit & loss, respectively).
