2. Summary of Material Accounting Policies2.1 Basis of Preparation of Financial Statements

2.1.1 Statement of Compliance

The financial statements comprising Balance Sheet, Statement of Profit and Loss, Cash flow Statement and Statement of changes in Equity, together with notes as at and for the year ended March 31,2024 have been prepared in accordance with Ind AS's notified under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 (‘the Act'), Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015, other relevant provision of the Act and amendments there to.

2.1.2 Historical Cost convention

The Financial Statements have been prepared under historical cost convention on accrual basis except for certain assets and liabilities as stated in the respective policies, which have been measured at fair value.

2.1.3 Current / Non-Current classification

The assets and liabilities have been 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 Act. Based on the nature of products and the time between the acquisition of assets for processing and their realisation in cash and cash equivalents, the Company has ascertained its operating cycle as 12 months for the purpose of current and non-current classification of assets and liabilities. Accordingly, all assets and liabilities have been classified as current or non-current as per the Company's operating cycle and other criteria set out in Ind AS-1 ‘Presentation of Financial Statements' and Schedule III to the Companies Act, 2013. Cash or cash equivalent is treated as current, unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as noncurrent assets and liabilities.

2.1.4 Functional and Presentation currency

Items included in the Financial Statements of the Company are measured and presented using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the Company operates (“Functional Currency”). Indian Rupee is the Functional and Presentation Currency of the Company.

2.2 Revenue recognition

2.2.1 Revenue from Sale of Goods / Services

Revenue from sale of goods / services are recognised on satisfaction of performance obligations and at transaction price (net of variable consideration) as per the terms of the contract with customers. Revenue is stated at net of returns and taxes on sales. Variable consideration shall include discounts and schemes offered by the company as part of the contract.

2.2.2 Interest Income

Interest income is recognised using the effective interest rate method. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset to the gross carrying amount of a financial asset.

2.3 Property Plant and Equipment

2.3.1 Tangible Assets

All property plant and equipment are stated at historical cost of acquisition less accumulated depreciation and impairment, if any. Historical cost includes purchase price, taxes and duties (net of tax credits), labour cost and directly attributable overhead expenditure incurred upto the date the asset is ready for its intended use.

The Cost of self-constructed assets includes the cost of materials, direct labour and any other costs directly attributable to bringing the asset to a working conditions for its intended use.

Subsequent costs are included in the asset's carrying amount or recognized as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of any component accounted for as separate asset is derecognized when replaced. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to Profit or Loss during the reporting period in which they are incurred.

2.3.2 Intangible assets

Intangible assets are measured at cost less accumulated amortisation and impairment losses, if any.

I dentifiable intangible assets are recognized when the Company controls the asset; it is probable that future economic benefits expected with the respective assets will flow to the Company for more than one economic period; and the cost of the asset can be measured reliably. Amortisation is provided on Straight Line Method (SLM), which reflect the management's estimate of the useful life of the intangible assets.

The useful lives of intangible assets are reviewed annually to determine if a reset of such useful life is required for assets. Based on such review, the useful life may change. The impact of such changes, if any, is accounted for as a change in accounting estimate.

I ntangible assets with finite lives are amortised over the useful economic life and assessed for impairment whenever there is an indication that the intangible asset may be impaired. The amortisation expense on intangible assets with finite lives is recognised in the statement of profit and loss unless such expenditure forms part of carrying value of another asset

2.3.3 Impairment of assets

Assessment is done at each Balance Sheet date as to whether there is any indication that an asset (tangible and intangible) may be impaired. If any such indication exists, an estimate of the recoverable amount of the asset/ cash generating unit is made. For the purpose of assessing impairment, the smallest identifiable group of assets that generates cash inflows from continuing use that are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets, is considered as a cash generating unit. Assets whose carrying value exceeds their recoverable amount are written down to the recoverable amount. Recoverable amount is higher of cash generating unit's net selling price and 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. Assessment is also done at each Balance Sheet date as to whether there is any indication that an impairment loss recognised for an asset in prior accounting periods may no longer exist or may have decreased.

2.4 Depreciation

The depreciable amount of an item of Property, Plant and Equipment (PPE) is allocated on a straight-line basis over its useful life as prescribed in the manner specified in Schedule II of the Act.

The useful lives used are in agreement with those specified in Part ‘C' of Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013 except in respect of following category of property, plant and equipment where the useful life is considered differently based on technical evaluation, taking into account the nature of the asset and the estimated usage basis management's best judgement of economic benefits from those classes of assets.

Management believes that such estimated useful lives are realistic and reflect a fair approximation of the period over which the assets are likely to be used.

- Roads - maximum 3 years

I f part of an item of PPE with a cost that is significant in relation to the total cost of the asset and useful life of that part is different from remaining part of the asset; such significant part is depreciated separately.

Depreciation is charged on pro-rata basis from the date of addition (i.e., when the assets are ready for their intended use) / till the date of disposal. An item of PPE is derecognized upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset. Gains or losses on such disposal of assets are recognised in statement of profit and loss.

Where the residual values are not more than 5% of original cost of the asset no depreciation is provided.

2.5 Borrowing Costs

The Company capitalises borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying asset as a part of the cost of the asset. The Company recognises other borrowing costs as an expense in the period in which it incurs them. A qualifying asset is an asset that necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use or sale.

To the extent the Company borrows generally and uses them for the purpose of obtaining a qualifying asset, amount of borrowing cost eligible for capitalization is computed by applying a capitalization rate to the expenditure incurred. The capitalization rate is determined based on the weighted average of borrowing costs, other than borrowings made specifically towards purchase of a qualifying asset.

2.6 Foreign Currency Translation

2.6.1 Functional and presentation currency

Items included in the financial statements are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the Company operates (‘the functional currency'). i.e in Indian rupee (INR - I.)

2.6.2Transaction and Balances

Foreign currency transactions are recorded in functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing on the date of transaction. As at the reporting date, non-monetary items which are carried in terms of historical cost denominated in a foreign currency are reported using the exchange rate prevailing at the date of the transaction. All monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency are restated at the closing exchange rates. Exchange differences arising out of foreign currency transactions are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

2.7 Inventories

2.7.1 Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (computed on moving weighted average basis) and net realizable value

2.7.2 Cost includes the cost of purchase including duties and taxes (net of tax credit), freight inward and other expenditure directly attributable to purchase.

Cost of work in progress and finished goods comprises of all direct costs and applicable manufacturing overheads incurred to bringing the inventories to the present location and condition.

Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.

2.8 Employee Benefits

2.8.1 Defined Benefit Plan:

Provision for gratuity, is made on the basis of actuarial valuation using the projected unit credit method. Remeasurement, comprising actuarial gains and losses, the effect of the changes to the asset ceiling and the return on plan assets excluding interest (if applicable), is reflected immediately in the balance sheet with a charge

or credit recognized in other comprehensive income in the period in which they occur. Re-measurement recognized in other comprehensive income is reflected immediately in retained earnings and will not be reclassified to Statement of Profit or Loss.

Past service cost is recognized in Statement of profit and loss in the period of a plan amendment. Net interest is calculated by applying the discount rate at the beginning of the period to the net defined benefit liability or asset. 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; and

• Re-measurement.

The Company presents the first two components of defined benefit costs in statement profit and loss in the line item “Employee Benefits Expenses". Curtailment gains and losses are accounted for as past service costs. The defined benefit obligation recognized in the balance sheet represents the actual deficit or surplus in the Company's defined benefit plans. Any surplus resulting from this calculation is limited to the present value of any economic benefits available in the form of reductions in future contributions to the plans.

2.8.2 Defined Contribution Plan:

Company's contributions during the year towards provident fund, pension scheme and employees' state insurance (‘ESI') scheme are recognised in the statement of profit and loss.

2.8.3Other Long Term Employee Benefits:

Compensated absences: Accumulated compensated absences, which are expected to be availed or encashed within 12 months from the end of the year are treated as short term employee benefits. Those that are expected to be encashed after 12 months from the end of the year are treated as other long-term employee benefits. The obligation towards the same is measured at the expected cost of accumulating compensated absences as the additional amount expected to be paid as a result of the unused entitlement as at the year end. The obligation is measured on the basis of an annual independent actuarial valuation using the projected unit credit method. Remeasurements gains or losses are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they arise.

2.8.4 Short term employee benefits obligations are measured on an undiscounted basis and are expensed as the related services provided. A liability is recognized for the amount expected to be paid under short-term employee benefits if the company has a present legal or constructive

obligation to pay this amount as a result of past service provided by the employee and the obligation can be estimated reliably.

2.9 Taxes on Income

Income tax expense represents the sum of the current tax and deferred tax.

2.9.1 Current Tax

The current tax is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from ‘profit before tax' as reported in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income because of items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and items that are never taxable or deductible. The Company's current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.

Current tax assets and liabilities are offset only if there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and it is intended to settle the liability on a net basis or simultaneously.

2.9.2 Deferred Tax

Deferred tax is provided using the balance sheet approach on temporary differences at the reporting date between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes at the reporting date.

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date 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 asset to be utilised. Unrecognised deferred tax assets are reassessed at each reporting date and are recognised to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profits will allow the deferred tax assets to be recovered.

Deferred tax liabilities and assets are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in which the liability is settled or the asset realised, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.

Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset if a legally enforceable right exists to set off current tax assets against current income tax liabilities and the deferred taxes relate to the same taxable entity and the same taxation authority.

The break-up of the major components of the deferred tax assets and liabilities as at balance sheet date has been arrived at after setting off deferred tax assets and l iabilities where the Company has a legally enforceable right to set-off assets against liabilities and where such

assets and liabilities relate to taxes on income levied by the same governing taxation laws.

2.9.3 Current and Deferred Tax for the year

Current and deferred tax are recognized in profit or 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.

2.10Provisions and Contingent Liabilities

2.10.1 Provisions

A provision is recorded when the Company has a present or constructive obligation as a result of past events, it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.

Provisions are reviewed at the end of each reporting period and adjusted to reflect the current best estimate. A provision is reversed when it is no longer probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation.

Provision for warranty claims is recognised at the time of sale based on the historical experience. Initial estimate of warranty expense is reviewed annually.

2.10.2Contingent Liabilities

Contingent liabilities are disclosed when there is a possible obligation arising from past events, the existence of which will be confirmed only by the occurrence or nonoccurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of the Company. Show cause notices are not considered as Contingent Liabilities unless converted into demand.

2.11 Leases

The Company's leases primarily consist of leases for certain plant and machinery, Vehicles and warehouse. The Company, being a lessee, assesses whether a contract contains a lease, at inception of a contract. Company recognises Right of Use Asset and lease liability only when the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration.

The right-of-use assets are initially recognised at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or prior to the commencement date of the lease plus any initial direct costs less any lease incentives. They are subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses.

Right-of-use assets, for which the entity is reasonably certain to exercise the right to purchase are depreciated

from the commencement date on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease term and useful life of the underlying asset.

The lease liability is initially measured at amortised cost at the present value of the future lease payments. The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if not readily determinable, using the incremental borrowing rates.

For the short-term and low value leases, the Company recognises the lease payments as an operating expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.

2.12Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and other short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.

2.13Financial Assets

2.13.1 Classification

The Company classifies its financial assets in the following measurement categories:

(i) Those measured subsequently at fair value through profit or loss (in case of investments in mutual funds)

(ii) Those measured at amortised cost

2.13.2 Measurement

Initial Recognition Measurement

Financial assets are recognised when the company becomes party to the contract. The Company measures a financial asset initially at its fair value, plus in the case of financial assets not recorded at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL), transaction costs that are attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset. Trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component are measured at transaction price.

2.13.3 Subsequent Measurement

2.13.3.1 Investments

Investments are subsequently measured at Fair value through Profit and loss. Income or loss from these financial assets is included in other income or other expenses.

2.13.3.2 Other Financial Assets

After Initial Measurement, financial assets are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method (EIR method). Amortised cost is calculated by taking into account

any discount or premium and fees or cost that are an integral part of EIR. The EIR amortization is included in finance income in the statement of profit and loss. The losses arising from impairment are recognised in the statement of profit and loss

2.134 Impairment of Financial Assets

The Company assesses on a forward looking basis the expected credit losses associated with its assets carried at amortised cost. The impairment methodology applied depends on whether there has been significant increase in credit risk. Note 7.2 details how the Company determines whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk.

For trade receivables, the Company applies the simplified approach permitted by Ind AS 109 Financial Instruments, which requires Expected Credit Losses (ECL) to be recognised from initial recognition of the receivables.

The application of simplified approach does not require the Company to track changes in credit risk. Rather, it recognises impairment loss allowance based on lifetime ECLs at each Balance Sheet date, right from its initial recognition

2.13.5 De recognition of Financial Assets

A financial asset (or, where applicable, a part of a financial asset or part of a group of similar financial assets) is primarily derecognised (i.e. removed from the Company's balance sheet) when the rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired.

2.14 Financial Liabilities

2.14.1 Classification

The Company classifies all financial liabilities as subsequently measured at amortised cost.

2.14.2 Initial recognition and measurement

The Company's financial liabilities include trade and other payables, loans and borrowings including bank overdrafts. All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value and, in the case of loans and borrowings and payables, net of directly attributable transaction costs.

2.14.3 Loans and Borrowings

After initial recognition, interest-bearing loans and borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the EIR method. Gains and losses are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss when the liabilities are derecognised.

Amortised cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of the EIR. The EIR amortisation is included as finance costs in the Statement of Profit and

Loss. This category generally applies to interest-bearing loans and borrowings.

2.14.4 De-recognition

A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability 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 in the respective carrying amounts is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

2.14.5 Offsetting of Financial Instruments

Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the balance sheet if there is a currently enforceable legal right to offset the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis, to realise the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.

2.15 Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company enters into forward contract to manage its exposure to foreign currency exchange risks. These derivative contracts that do not qualify for hedge accounting under Ind AS 109, are initially recognized at fair value on the date the contract is entered into and subsequently measured through at profit or loss. Gains or loss arising from changes in the fair value of the derivative contracts are recognized in statement of profit and loss.

2.16 Dividend to Shareholders

Final dividend proposed and distributed to equity shareholders is recognized only in the financial year in which it is approved by the members of the Company in the Annual General Meeting. Interim dividend is recognized when approved by the Board of Directors at the Board Meeting. Dividend distributed is recognized in the Statement of Changes in Equity.

2.17 Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net profit or loss for the year attributable to equity shareholders by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year.

For the purpose of calculating diluted earnings per share, the net profit or loss for the year attributable to equity shareholders and the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year are adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potential equity shares.

2.18 Segment Information

The Company has identified “Domestic Appliances" as a only reportable segment based on the manner in which operating results are reviewed by the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM).

2.19 Prior Period

Errors of material amount relating to prior period(s) are disclosed by a note with nature of prior period errors, amount of correction of each such prior period presented retrospectively, to the extent practicable along with change in basic and diluted earnings per share. However where retrospective restatement is not practicable for a particular period then the circumstances that led to the existence of that condition and the description of how and from where the error is corrected are disclosed in notes forming part of Financial statements.

2.20 Cash Flow Statement

Cash flow statement is prepared in accordance with the indirect method prescribed in Ind AS 7 ‘Statement of Cash Flows'.

Cash flows are reported using the indirect method, whereby profit/ (loss) before tax is adjusted for the effects of transactions of non cash nature and any deferrals or accruals of past or future cash receipts or payments. Cash flow for the year is classified as operating, investing and financing activities.

2.21 Critical Estimates & Judgements

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with the generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities as of the balance sheet date and reported revenue and expenses for the year and disclosure of contingent liabilities as of the date of balance sheet. The estimates and assumptions used in the accompanying financial statements are based upon the management's evaluation of the relevant circumstances as of the date of financial statements. Actual amounts could differ from these estimates.

2.22 Rounding of Amounts

All amounts disclosed in the financial statements and notes are presented in INR lakhs and has been rounded off to two decimals as per the requirements of Division II of schedule III to the Act, unless otherwise stated.
