1.2 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:
a. Current versus 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:
• Expected to be realised or intended to be sold or consumed in normal operating cycle
• Held primarily for the purpose of trading
• Expected to be realised within twelve months after the reporting period, or
• Cash or cash equivalent unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period
All other assets are classified as non-current.
A liability is current when:
• It is expected to be settled in normal operating cycle
• It is held primarily for the purpose of trading
• It is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period, or
• There is no unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period
All other liabilities are classified as non-current.
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’s normal operating cycle is as set out in Schedule III of The Companies Act, 2013. Based on the nature of services and the time between the cash outflow and their realization in cash and cash equivalents, the Company has ascertained its operating cycle as 12 months for the purpose of current/non-current classification of assets and liabilities.
b. Financial Instruments Equity Investments
The investment of Rs.2,50,000/- in the Equity shares of M/s. Kaveri Gas Power Ltd., under the same management whose shares are unquoted are valued at cost as per the equity method in accordance with the Ind As 28 Investment in Associates. The Management is of the opinion that there is diminution in the value of these investments and therefore provision for diminution in value is made in the books of accounts for Rs.2,50,000/-
Investments in Subsidiaries and Associates 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 and Associates, the difference between net disposal proceeds and the carrying amounts are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Upon first time adoption of Ind As, the Company has elected to measure its investments in Subsidiaries and Associates at the previous GAAP carrying amount as its deemed cost on the date of transition to Ind AS i.e., April 1st, 2016.
Carrying value for all its investments in Subsidiaries, Joint Ventures and Associates as at the date of transition to Ind As, measured as per previous GAAP are treated as their deemed costs as at the date of transition.
c. Fair value measurement of financial instruments:
The Company measures financial instruments at fair value at each balance sheet date.
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value measurement is based on the presumption that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability takes place either:
• In the principal market for the asset or liability, or
• In the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the asset or liability
The principal or the most advantageous market must be accessible by the Company.
The fair value of an asset or a liability is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, assuming that market participants act in their economic best interest.
A fair value measurement of a non-financial asset takes into account a market participant’s ability to generate economic benefits by using the asset in its highest and best use or by selling it to another market participant that would use the asset in its highest and best use.
The Company uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available to measure fair value, maximizing the use of relevant observable inputs and minimizing the use of unobservable inputs.
d. Revenue recognition:
Revenue from services is recognized in the financial statement based on the full performance and completion of services rendered relating to the Operation & maintenance services provided to Associate Companies and when it is probable that economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the entity.
The company has applied the principles under the IND AS 115 to account the revenues from these performance obligations. Revenue from the operations and management services are recognized as the performance obligations are satisfied. During the current year the activity of rendering service relating to operation and maintenance were not undertaken. The company recognized revenue from these operations up to the period of performance carried out only.
Revenue is recognized to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Company and the revenue can be reliably measured. Revenue from Sale of power is recognized based on the assessment of units consumed by customer and are billed at the rates agreed upon with the customers.
Revenue from other income comprises or interest income from a financial asset. It is recognized when it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Company and the revenue can be reliably measured. Interest income is accrued on a timely basis, by reference to the principal outstanding and at the effective interest rate applicable.
e. Taxes
Current income tax
Tax expense for the year comprises current and deferred tax. The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Current income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities. The Company’s liability for current tax is calculated using the tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.
Current income tax relating to items recognized outside profit or loss is recognized outside profit or loss (either in other comprehensive income or in equity). Management periodically evaluates positions taken in the tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulations are subject to interpretation and establishes provisions where appropriate.
Deferred income tax
Deferred tax is provided on temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes at the reporting date.
Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognized for all the taxable temporary differences.
Deferred income tax assets are recognized for all deductible temporary differences, carry forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses, to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, the carry forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilized.
The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is reviewed at each balance sheet date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred income tax asset to be utilized.
Deferred tax relating to items recognized outside profit or loss is recognized outside profit or loss (either in other comprehensive income or in equity).
Deferred income tax has been recognized for all timing differences during the financial year, subject to consideration of prudence.
f. Property, plant and equipment (PPE)
On transition to Ind AS, the Company has elected to continue with the carrying value of all of its property, plant and equipment measured as per the previous GAAP and use that carrying value as the deemed cost of the property, plant and equipment.
Freehold land is carried at historical cost and is not depreciated. Capital work in progress and all other property, plant and equipment are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the items. Any trade discounts and rebates are deducted in arriving at the purchase price.
The present value of the expected cost for decommissioning of an asset after its use is included in the cost of the respective asset, if the recognition criteria for a provision are met.
An item of Property, plant and equipment and any significant part initially recognized is derecognized upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. 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 or loss when the asset is derecognized.
The Company identifies and determines cost of each component / part of the asset separately, if the component/ part have a cost which is significant to the total cost of the asset having useful life that is materially different from that of the remaining asset.
The residual values, useful lives and methods of depreciation of Property, plant and equipment are reviewed at each financial year end and adjusted prospectively, if appropriate.
g. Depreciation on Property Plant and Equipment:
The schedule II of The Companies Act, 2013 prescribes useful lives for Property Plant and Equipment. The schedule II allows companies to use higher/lower useful lives and residual values if such useful lives and residual value can be technically supported and justification for difference is disclosed in the financial statements.
Considering the applicability of schedule II, the management has re-estimated useful lives and residual value of all its Property Plant and Equipment. Management believes that depreciation rates currently used fairly reflects its estimate of useful lives and residual value of fixed assets and in compliance of schedule II of the companies Act, 2013.
Depreciation in respect of Property Plant and Equipment acquired during the year has been provided pro¬ rata from the date such assets are acquired / put to use. An item of property, plant and equipment and any significant part initially recognized is derecognized upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. 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 and loss when the asset is derecognized.
The Company depreciates the Property, Plant and Equipment over their estimated useful life using the Written down Value method.
