1.1 Basis of preparation of Financial Statements
The Financial Statements of the Company are prepared in accordance
with the Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) in India.
The Financial Statements have been prepared on an accrual basis and
under the historical cost convention.
GAAP comprises applicable Accounting Standards specified under Section
133 of the Companies Act, 2013 read with Rule 7 of the Companies
(Accounts) Rules, 2014, other pronouncements of the Institute of
Chartered Accountants of India, relevant applicable provisions of the
Companies Act, 1956, and Companies Act, 2013 to the extent applicable
and the applicable guidelines issued by Securities and Exchange Board
of India (SEBI).
Accounting policies have been consistently applied except where a
newly issued Accounting Standard is initially adopted or a revision to
an existing Accounting Standard requires a change in the accounting
policy hitherto in use.
All 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 Companies Act, 2013. The
Company has ascertained its operating cycle as 12 months for the
purpose of current and non-current classification of assets and
liabilities.
2. Use of estimates
The preparation of the Financial Statements in conformity with GAAP
requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the
reported balances of assets, liabilities and disclosures relating to
contingent liabilities as at the date of the Financial Statements and
reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the period. Actual
results might differ from the estimates. Difference between the actual
results and estimates are recognised in the period in which the
results are known/ materialise.
3. Fixed assets and capital work-in-progress
a) Tangible fixed assets are stated at their original cost less
accumulated depreciation. Cost includes acquisition price, import
duties, other non- refundable taxes and levies, directly attributable
expenses and pre-operational expenses including finance costs,
wherever applicable for bringing the assets to its working condition
for their intended use.
b) Expenditure during construction period: Directly attributable
expenditure (including finance costs relating to borrowed funds for
construction or acquisition of fixed assets) incurred on projects
under implementation are treated as Pre-operative expenses pending
allocation to the assets and are shown under "Capital
work-inprogress". Capital work-in-progress is stated at the amount
expended upto the date of Balance Sheet for the cost of fixed assets
that are not yet ready for their intended use.
4. Depreciation and amortisation
a) Depreciation on tangible fixed assets is provided on straight line
basis so as to charge the cost of the assets less its residual value
over the useful life of the respective asset as prescribed under Part
C of Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013, other than for Mobile
Phones.
Residual value has been considered as 5% of the cost of the respective
asset. The management is of the view that the useful life of Mobile
Phones is three years. Hence, Mobile Phones are depreciated over a
period of three years on straight line basis.
b) Lease hold land in the nature of perpetual lease are not amortised.
c) Depreciation/amortisation on assets added, sold or discarded during
the year is provided on pro-rata basis.
d) Useful life and residual value of the assets are reviewed at each
Balance Sheet date.
5. Revenue recognition
a) Interest income is recognized on time proportion basis taking into
account the amount outstanding and the interest rate applicable.
b) All other income are accounted for on accrual basis.
6. Expenses
All the expenses are accounted for on accrual basis.
7. Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets
A provision is recognised in respect of obligations where, based on
the evidence available, their existence at the Balance Sheet date is
considered probable as a result of a past event, and the Company has a
present legal obligation that can be estimated reliably, and it is
probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to
settle the obligation. Provisions are measured by best estimate of the
outflow of economic benefits required to settle the obligation at the
Balance Sheet date.
Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets are reviewed
at each Balance Sheet date.
Re-imbursement expected in respect of expenditure to settle a
provision is recognised only when it is virtually certain that the
re-imbursement will be received.
A Contingent Asset is neither recognised nor disclosed in the
Financial Statements.
8. Impairment of assets
An asset is treated as impaired when the carrying amount of asset
exceeds its recoverable value.
The Company assesses at each Balance Sheet date whether there is an
indication that an asset may be impaired. Impairment loss, if any, is
recognised to the extent, the carrying amount of assets exceed its
recoverable value being higher of an asset's net selling price and its
value in use. Value in use is computed at net 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.
The Company also assesses at each Balance Sheet date whether there is
an indication that the impairment losses recognised in earlier years
no longer exist or have decreased. If such indication is there, then
impairment losses recognised in prior years are reversed.
Such reversals are recognised as an increase in carrying amount of
assets to the extent that it does not exceed the carrying amount that
would have been determined (net of depreciation or amortization) had
no impairment loss been recognised in previous years.
9. Taxes on income
Tax expense for the period comprises of current income tax and
deferred tax.
Current income tax is measured at the amount expected to be paid to
the tax authorities in accordance with the Income Tax Act, 1961.
Deferred tax is recognised, subject to the consideration of prudence
in respect of deferred tax assets, on timing differences, being the
difference between taxable income and accounting income that originate
in one period and are capable of reversal in one or more subsequent
periods. Deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent there
is reasonable certainty that the assets can be realized in future.
However, when there is a brought forward loss or unabsorbed
depreciation under taxation laws, deferred tax assets are recognised
only if there is virtual certainty of realization of such assets.
Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each Balance Sheet date and
written down or written up to reflect the amount that is
reasonably/virtually certain to be realized.
The deferred tax for timing differences between the book and tax
profit for the period is accounted for using the tax rates and laws
that have been enacted or substantively enacted as of the Balance
Sheet date.
10. Earnings per share
Basic earnings per share are computed by dividing the net
profit/(loss) after tax (including the post-tax effect of extra
ordinary items, if any) by the weighted average number of equity
shares outstanding during the year.
Diluted earnings per share are computed by dividing the net
profit/(loss) after tax (including the post-tax effect of extra
ordinary items, if any) by the weighted average number of equity
shares considered for deriving basic earnings per share and also the
weighted average number of equity shares which could be issued on the
conversion of all dilutive potential equity shares. Dilutive potential
equity shares are determined as at the end of each period presented.
11. Cash flow statement
Cash flows are reported using the indirect method, whereby profit/loss
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 flows. The cash flows from operating, investing
and financing activities of the Company are segregated.
12. Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, cheques in hand,
balance with banks on current accounts and short term, highly liquid
investments with an original maturity of three months or less and
which carry insignificant risk of changes in value.
(c) The Company has only one class of equity shares. The Company
declares and pays dividend in Indian Rupees. The holders of equity
shares are entitled to receive dividend as declared from time to time
and are entitled to one vote per share.
(d) In the event of liquidation of the company, the holders of equity
shares will be entitled to receive remaining assets of the company,
after distribution of all preferential amount. The distribution will
be in proportion to the number of equity shares held by the
shareholders.
(e) 51,62,470 equity shares of par value Rs. 1/- each are held by
Balrampur Chini Mills Ltd., the Holding Company.
Notes:
1) Lease deed for 50 acres of land (Out of total land of 705 acres)
for Jhansi plant has not been executed. In respect of some other land,
the registration formalities are under process.
2) No depreciation has been provided on plant and equipment as the
same has been depreciated upto 95% of its value.
3) Other disclosure
4) Depreciation for the current year has been aligned to meet the
requirements of Schedule -II to the Companies Act, 2013 and
accordingly an amount of Rs. 33,610.37 in relation to the assets whose
useful life has already exhausted has been adjusted with Retained
Earnings.
Had the Company continued to charge depreciation based on rates and
manner as specified under the erstwhile Schedule XIV to the Companies
Act, 1956, depreciation expense for the year ended 31st March, 2015
would have been lower by Rs. 18,42,616.23, Profit before Tax and the net
value of Fixed Assets as at that date would have been higher by like
amount.
