The Ind AS are prescribed under Section 133 of the Act read with Rule 3 of the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 and Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Amendment Rules, 2016. Accounting policy has been consistently applied except where a newly issued accounting standard is initially adopted.
(b) Use of Estimates
In preparing the financial statements in conformity with Ind AS, management is required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that may affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets & liabilities as at the date of financial statements and the amounts of revenue and expenses during the reported period. The estimates and assumptions used in the accompanying financial statements are based upon management's evaluation of facts and circumstances as at the date of the financial statement. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Estimates and underlying assumption are
reviewed on an ongoing basis. Any revision to such estimates is recognised in the period the same is determined.
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. Tins reassessment may result in change in depreciation expense in future periods.
Provisions and contingent liabilities
A provision is recognised 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. These are reviewed at each balance sheet date and adjusted to reflect the current best estimates.
Contingent liabilities are not recognised in the financial statements. Contingent assets are neither recognized nor disclosed in the financial statements.
1.2 Valuation of Inventories
(i) Inventory
Inventory is measured at the lower of cost or net realizable value.
Cost of inventor)’ consumed is arrived at using the FIRST IN FIRST OUT (FIFO) method. The cost comprises the cost of obtaining the raw material after net of refundable duty (it any); but inclusive of freight and other direct expenses incurred to bringing such raw material to the place of processing or present location.
(ii) Finished Goods
Finished Goods are measured at the lower of cost or net realizable value.
Finished goods are valued on the full absorption cost basis and the cost comprises the cost of raw material consumed. Direct Expenses and appropriate overhead expenses incurred in bringing such finished goods to their present condition.
1.3 Cash Flow Statements
Cash flow are reported using the indirect method, whereby 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 items of income or expenses associated with investing or financing cash flows. The cash flow's from operating, investing and financing activities of the Company are segregated.
1.4 Revenue Recognition

\ n m A
and sales during trial run period adjusted for discounts (net) and gain/ loss on corresponding hedge contracts.
When goods or services are exchanged or swapped for goods or services which are of a similar nature and value, the exchange is not regarded as a transaction which generates revenue.
i. Other Income
Interest income is recognized on a time proportion basis taking into account the amount outstanding and the applicable interest rate. Interest income is included under the head ' other income" in the statement of profit and loss.
1.5 Property, Plant and Equipment
Fixed Assets are stated at their original cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment loss, if any. Cost comprises the acquisition price, Taxes, Duties, Freight, insurance and any other incidental costs of bringing the assets to their working condition for their intended use. In respect of projects involving construction, related pre-operational expenses form part of tine value of assets capitalized.
Costs/expenses incurred on or in relation to Tangible & Intangible Assets, which are not put to use or are not ready for their intended use or which are under construction are classified under Capital Work-in-Progress & Intangible assets under development.
Subsequent expenditures related to an item of fixed asset are added to its book value only if it increases the future benefits from the existing asset beyond its previously assessed standard of performance. All other expenses on existing fixed assets, including day-to-day repair and maintenance expenditure and cost of replacing parts, are charged to the statement of profit and loss for the period during which such expenses are incurred.
Depreciation methods, estimated useful lives and residual value
Depreciation on property, plant and equipment is provided on 'Written Down Value' based on useful life as prescribed under Schedule II of the Companies Act 2013. Tire residual values are not more than 5% of the original cost of the asset. Tine assets residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at the end of each reporting period. The estimated useful lives of assets are as follows:
Building 60 years
Plant and Machinery 15 years
Office Equipment 5 years
Computer Equipment 3 years
Furniture and Fixture 10 years
Vehicles 8-10 years
Derecognition
The carrying amount of an item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised on disposal or when no future benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with carrying amount. These are included in profit or loss within other gains/(losses).
1.6 Leases
The Company's lease asset classes primarily consist of leases for land and buildings. The Company assesses whether a contract contains a lease, at inception of a contract. A contract is, or contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. To assess whether a contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset, the Company assesses whether: (i) the contract involves the use of an identified asset (ii) the Company has substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the asset through the period of the lease and (iii) the Company has the right to direct the use of the asset.
At the date of commencement of the lease, the Company recognizes a right-of-use (ROU) asset and a corresponding lease liability for all lease arrangements in which it is a lessee, except c and low value leases. For these short-term and low-value leases, the Company recognizes the lease payments as an operating expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Certain lease arrangements include the options to extend or terminate the lease before the end of the lease term. ROU assets and lease liabilities includes these options when it is reasonably certain that they will be exercised.
The ROU assets are initially recognized at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the
lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or prior to the commencement date
ot the lease plus any initial direct costs less any lease incentives. They are subsequently
measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. ROU assets 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
/\ .
amortized 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 in the country of domicile of these leases. Lease liabilities are remeasured with a corresponding adjustment to the related ROU asset if the Company changes its assessment of whether it will exercise an extension or a termination option.
Lease liability and ROU assets have been separately presented in the Balance Sheet and lease payments have been classified as financing cash flows.
1.7 FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
(i) Initial recognition and measurement:
The Company recognizes financial assets and financial liabilities when it becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. All financial assets and liabilities are recognized at fair value on initial recognition, except for trade receivables which are initially measured at transaction price. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition nor issue of financial assets and financial liabilities, that are not at fair value through profit or loss, are added to the fair value on initial recognition. Regular way purchase and sale of financial assets are accounted for at trade date.
(i) Subsequent measurement a. Non-derivative financial instruments
(i) Financial assets carried at amortised cost
A financial asset is subsequently 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 are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
(ii) Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income
A financial asset is subsequently measured at fair value through other comprehensive income if it is held within a business model whose objective is achieved bv 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 are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. The Company has made an irrevocable election for its investments which are classified as equity instruments to present the
subsequent changes in fair value in other comprehensive income based on its business model. Further, in cases where the Company lias made an irrevocable election based on its business model, for its investments which are classified as equity instruments, the subsequent changes in fair value are recognized in other comprehensive income.
(iii) Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
A financial asset which is not classified in any of the above categories are subsequently fair valued through profit or loss.
(iv) Financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are subsequently carried at amortized cost using the effective interest method, except for contingent consideration recognized in a business combination which is subsequently measured at fair value through 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.
a. Share capital Ordinary Shares
Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issuance of new ordinary shares and share options are recognized as a deduction from equity, net of any tax effects.
1.8 Derecognition of financial instruments
The company derecognizes 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 derecognition under Ind AS 109. A financial liability (or a part of a financial liability) is derecognized from the Company's Balance Sheet when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged or cancelled or expires.
1.9 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. I he methods used to determine fair value include discounted cash flow
analysis, available quoted market prices and dealer quotes. All methods of assessing fair value result in general approximation of value, and such value may ne\er actually be realized
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.
1.10 Impairment
a. Financial assets
The Company recognizes loss allowances using the expected credit loss (ECL) model tor the financial assets which are not fair valued through profit or loss. Loss allowance for bade receivables with no significant financing component is measured at an amount equal to lifetime ECL. For all other financial assets, expected credit losses are measured at an amount equal to the 12-month ECL, unless there has been a significant increase in credit risk from initial recognition in which case those are measured at lifetime ECL. The amount of expected credit losses (or reversal) that is required to adjust the loss allowance at the reporting date to the amount that is required to be recognised is recognized as an impairment gain or loss in profit or loss.
b. Non-financial assets
(i) Intangible assets and property, plant and equipment
Intangible assets and property, plant and equipment are evaluated for recoverability whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. For the purpose of impairment testing, the recoverable amount (i.e. the higher of the fair value less cost to sell and the value-in-use) is determined on an individual asset basis unless the asset does not generate cash flows that are largely independent oi those from other assets. In such cases, the recoverable amount is determined for the CGU to which the asset belongs.
If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss is measured by the amount by which the carrying value of the assets exceeds the estimated recoverable amount of the asset. An impairment loss is reversed in the statement of profit and loss if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. Ihe carrying amount of the asset is increased to its
re\ ised recoverable amount, provided that this amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined (net of any accumulated amortization or depredation) had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset in prior years.
1.11 Employee Benefits
The company has various schemes of retirement benefits such as Gratuity, leave encashment.
(l) Short Term: - Short term employee benefits are recognized in the vear during which the services have been rendered.
(ii) Long Term: -
Leave Encashment -The Company has provided for the liability at year end on account of accumulated earned leave as per policy of the company.
Gratutiy - The Company provides for gratuity, a defined benefit retirement plan ('the Gratuity Plan'), covering eleigible employees. Gratuity liability is determined by the management.
1.12 Earning Per Share
Basic earning per share is computed by dividing the net profit after tax by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing the profit after tax by the weighted average number of equity shares considered for deriv ing basic earnings per share and also the weighted average number of equity shares that could have been issued upon conversion of all dilutive potential equitv shares.
The dilutiv e potential equity shares are adjusted for the proceeds receivable had the shares been actually issued at fair value which is the average market value of the outstanding shares. Dilutive potential equity shares are deemed to be converted as of the beginning of the period, unless issued at a later date. Dilutive potential equity shares are determined independently for each period presented.
1.13 Taxation
Income tax expense comprises current and deferred income tax. Income tax expense is recognized in net profit in the statement of profit and loss except to the extent that it relates to items recognized directly in equity, in which case it is recognized in other
comprehensive income. Current income tax for current and prior periods is recognized at the amount expected to be paid to or recovered from the tax authorities, using the tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for all temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realized.
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured using tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date and are expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Hie effect of changes in tax rates on deferred income tax assets and liabilities is recognized as income or expense in the period that includes the enactment or the substantive enactment date. A deferred income tax asset is recognized to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences and tax losses can be utilized. Deferred income taxes are not provided on the undistributed earnings of subsidiaries and branches where it is expected that the earnings of the subsidiary or branch will not be distributed in the foreseeable future. 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 settle the liability simultaneously. I he income tax provision for the interim period is made based on the best estimate of the annual average tax rate expected to be applicable for the lull financial year. Tax benefits of deductions earned on exercise of employee share options in excess of compensation charged to income are credited to share premium.
