2 Basis of accounting and preparation of financial statements

The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in India (Indian GAAP). The company has prepared these financial statements to comply with the Accounting Standards notified under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 read with the Companies (Accounting Standards) Rules, 2021 and presentation requirements of Division I of Schedule III to the Companies Act, 2013. The financial statements have been prepared on going concern basis under the historical cost convention on accrual basis. The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the financial statements are consistent with those of previous year unless otherwise specified.

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. Based on the nature of product and the time between the acquisition of assets for processing and their realization in cash and cash equivalents, the Company has ascertained its operating cycle as up to twelve months for the purpose of current/non-current classification of assets and liabilities.

Current-Non current classification

All assets and liabilities are classified into current and non-current as follows:

Assets:

An asset is classified as current when it satisfies

any of the following criteria:

a. It is expected to be realised in, or is intended for sale or consumption in, the company’s normal operating cycle;

b. It is held primarily for the purpose of being traded;

c. It is expected to be realised within 12 months after the reporting date; or

d. It is cash or cash equivalent unless it is restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least 12 months after the reporting date.

Current assets include the current portion of non-current financial assets. All other assets are classified as non-current.

Liabilities:

A liability is classified as current when it satisfies

any of the following criteria:

a. It is expected to be settled in the company’s normal operating cycle;

b. It is held primarily for the purpose of being traded;

c. It is due to be settled within 12 months after the reporting date; or

d. The Company does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting date. Terms of a liability that could, at the option of the counterparty, result in its settlement by the issue of equity instruments do not affect its classification.

Current liabilities include current portion of non-current financial liabilities. All other liabilities are classified as non-current.

3 Summary of significant accounting policiesa. Presentation and disclosure

The Company has prepared the Financial Statements along with the relevant notes in accordance with the requirements of Schedule III of the Act.

b. Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Indian GAAP requires the management to make judgments, estimates and disclosure that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities, at the end of the reporting period. Although, these estimates are based on the management’s best knowledge of current events and actions, uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in the outcomes requiring a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities in current and future periods.

c. Cash and Cash Equivalent

Cash and cash equivalents for the purposes of cash flow statement comprise cash at bank and in hand and short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less.

d. Statement of Cash Flow

Cash flows are reported using the indirect method, whereby profit / (loss) before extraordinary items and 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. The cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities of the Company are segregated based on the available information.

e. Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, Plant and Equipment are stated at cost of acquisition, installation or construction including other direct expenses incurred to bring the assets to its working condition for its intended use less accumulated depreciation, amortization, impairment, discardation and compensation.

Gains or losses arising from derecognition of Property, plant and equipment 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 and loss when the asset is derecognized.

f. Intangible assets

Intangible assets are stated at cost of acquisition less accumulated amortisation and impairment loss, if any. Intangible assets

are recognized only if it is probable that the expected future economic benefits that are attributable to the assets will flow to the enterprise and the cost of the assets can be measured reliably.

Technology Development:

Expenditure incurred during research is charged to revenue when no intangible asset arises from such research.

Development expenditure is capitalised to the extent that it is expected that such asset will generate future economic benefits; adequate technical, financial and other resources required to complete the development and to use or sell the asset are available, and the expenditure attributable to the asset during its development can be measured reliably. The Company filed patents for ‘DRYAD’ Technology and ‘Integrated Process for Pre-treatment and Anaerobic Digestion of Waste’ (referred to as MARUT Drum and allied equipment) in June 2014 and was granted the patents on June 16, 2022, and July 10, 2023, respectively.

g. Depreciation & Amortisation

Depreciation on Property, Plant & Equipment is provided on the written down value method at the calculated rates on the basis of the useful life specified in Part C and in the manner prescribed under Schedule II of the Companies Act, 2013, as under:

During the year, depreciation is provided at 100% on the written down value of assets which have retired from active use.

Intangible assets in the nature of software’s are amortised on a Straight Line Method over their useful lives of 3 years.

Intangible asset internally generated in the current year is amortised on a Straight Line Method over its useful life of 10 years.

The Company has amortized the Technology Development cost over its estimated life over 10 years

The estimated useful lives of intangible assets and the amortisation period are reviewed at the end of each financial period and the amortization method is revised to reflect the changed pattern, if any.

h. Intangible Assets under Development

Intangible assets under development are stated at cost, net of accumulated impairment losses, if any. The cost comprises of salary cost and professional fees incurred in development of In-vessel composting, Activated Carbon to Mesh Membrane development for Water/Gas purification application, Bio grinder, Sanjeevak Carbonisation System & emission control device.

i. Revenue Recognition

Revenue is recognized based on the nature of activity to the extent it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Company and revenue can be reliably measured.

Revenue from Construction Contract

a. For Engineering, Procurement and Construction (‘EPC’) and construction contracts, contract prices are either fixed or subject to price escalation clauses.

b. Revenues are recognised on a percentage of completion method measured on the basis of stage of completion which is as per joint surveys and work certified by the customers.

c. Profit is recognised in proportion to the value of work done (measured by the stage of completion) when the outcome of the contract can be estimated reliably. When the total contract cost is estimated to exceed total revenues from the contract, the loss is recognized immediately.

d. Amounts due in respect of price escalation claims and/ or variation in contract work are recognised as revenue only if the contract allows for such claims or variations and/or there is evidence that the customer has accepted it and are capable of being reliably measured.

Revenue from Supply Contracts-Sale of goods

Revenue from supply contract is recognized when the substantial risk and rewards of ownership is transferred to the buyer.

Service income

Service income is recognised on the basis of completion of service method.

Interest

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.

j. Investments

Investments, which are readily realizable and intended to be held for not more than one year from the date on which such investments are made, are classified as current investments. Current investments are carried in the financial statements at lower of cost and fair value determined on an individual investment basis. All other investments are classified as long term investments. Long term investments are carried at cost. Provision for diminution in the value of long-term investments is made only if such a decline is other than temporary in the opinion of the management. The cost comprises purchase price and directly attributable acquisition charges such as brokerage, fees and duties.

k. Inventories

Inventories comprising finished goods, are carried at the lower of cost and net realisable value and work-in-progress are valued at cost.

Raw materials are valued at cost using Weighted average method. However, materials and other items held for use in the production of inventories are not written down below cost if the finished products in which they will be incorporated are expected to be sold at or above cost.

Cost of inventories comprise of all cost of purchase, cost of conversion and other cost incurred in bringing them to their respective present location and condition.

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

l. Retirement and other employee benefits

Short Term Employee Benefits:

Short term employee benefits expected to be paid in exchange for the services rendered by employees are recognised undiscounted during the period employee renders services.

Post-Employment Benefits:

Company’s contribution for the period paid/ payable to defined contribution retirement benefit schemes are charged to statement of Profit and Loss. Company’s liability towards defined benefit plan viz. gratuity is determined using the Projected Unit Credit Method as per actuarial valuation carried out at the balance sheet date. The benefit is unfunded. Actuarial gains and losses for both defined benefit plans are recognized in full in the period in which they occur in the statement of profit and loss.

m. Borrowing Cost

Borrowing costs attributable to acquisition and construction of qualifying assets are capitalized as a part of the cost of such assets up to the date when such assets are ready for its intended use. Other borrowing costs are charged to the statement of Profit and Loss in the year in which they are incurred.

n. Earnings Per Share

Basic earning 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 is adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potential equity shares.

o. Income taxes

Tax expense comprises current 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 enacted in India and tax laws prevailing in the respective tax jurisdictions where the Company operates. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted or substantively enacted, at the reporting date.

Deferred income taxes reflect the impact of timing differences between taxable income and accounting income originating during the current year and reversal of timing differences for the earlier years. Deferred tax is measured using the tax rates and the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date. Deferred income tax relating to items recognized directly in equity is recognized in equity and not in the statement of profit and loss.

Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for all taxable timing differences. Deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible timing differences only to the extent that there is reasonable certainty that sufficient future taxable income will be available against which such deferred tax assets can be realized. In situations where the Company has unabsorbed depreciation or carry forward tax losses, all deferred tax assets are recognized only if there is virtual certainty supported by convincing evidence that they can be realized against future taxable profits.

At each reporting date, the Company reassesses unrecognized deferred tax assets. It recognizes unrecognized deferred tax asset to the extent that it has become reasonably certain or virtually certain, as the case may be, that sufficient future taxable income will be available against which such deferred tax assets can be realized.

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

p. Impairment of Assets

At each Balance Sheet date, the company assesses as to whether there is any indication that an asset is impaired. If any such indication exists, the company estimates the recoverable amount of the asset. If such recoverable amount of the asset or the recoverable amount of the cash generating unit to which the asset 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 is recognized in the Statement of Profit and 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. However, as per the assessment made by the company as on the balance sheet date, there is no such indication of any impairment of any asset during the year under report and therefore there is no effect of impairment loss in the financial statement for the year under report.

q. Provisions and Contingencies

A provision is recognised when the Company has a present obligation as a result of past event; 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 of the amount of obligation. Provisions are not discounted to its present value and are determined based on best estimate required to settle the obligation at the reporting date. These are reviewed at each reporting date and adjusted to reflect the current best estimates.

Where the Company expects some or all of a provision to be reimbursed, for example under an insurance contract, the reimbursement is recognized as a separate asset but only when the reimbursement is virtually certain. The expense relating to any provision is presented in the statement of profit and loss net of any reimbursement.

A contingent liability is a possible obligation that arises from past events whose existence will be confirmed by the occurrence or nonoccurrence of one or more uncertain future events beyond the control of the Company or a present obligation that is not recognized because it is not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation. A contingent liability also arises in extremely rare cases where there is a liability that cannot be recognized because it cannot be measured reliably. The Company does not recognize a contingent liability but discloses its existence in the financial statements.

r. LeasesWhere the Company is lessee

Leases, where the lessor effectively retains substantially all the risks and benefits of

ownership of the leased item, are classified as operating leases. Operating lease payments are recognized as an expense in the statement of profit and loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Leases under which the Company assumes substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are classified as finance leases. Assets taken on finance lease are initially capitalised at fair value of the asset or present value of the minimum lease payments at the inception of the lease, whichever is lower. Lease payments are apportioned between the finance charge and the reduction of the outstanding liability. The finance charge is allocated to periods during the lease term so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability for each period.

Where the Company is the lessor

Leases in which the Company does not transfer substantially all the risks and benefits of ownership of the asset are classified as operating leases. Assets subject to operating leases are included in property, plant and equipment. Lease income on an operating lease is recognized in the statement of profit and loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Costs, including depreciation, are recognized as an expense in the statement of profit and loss. Initial direct costs such as legal costs, brokerage costs, etc. are recognized immediately in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

s. Events occurring after the Balance Sheet date:

Events occurring after the balance sheet date are those significant events, both favourable and unfavourable, that occur between the balance sheet and the date on which the Standalone financial statements are approved by the Board of Directors. Adjustments to assets and liabilities are required for events occurring after the balance sheet date that provide additional information materially affecting the determination of the amounts relating to conditions existing at the balance sheet date. To that extent Assets and Liabilities are adjusted for events occurring after the balance sheet date which indicate that the fundamental accounting assumption of going concern is not appropriate.

t. Foreign Currency Transactions

Transactions in foreign currency are recorded at the exchange rate prevailing on the date of transaction. Net exchange gain or loss resulting in respect of foreign exchange transactions settled during the year is recognised in the statement of profit and loss.

Foreign currency denominated monetary items at year end are translated at exchange rates as on the reporting date and the resulting

net gain or loss is recognised in the statement of profit and loss. Non-monetary items, which are measured in terms of historical cost denominated in a foreign currency, are reported using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction.
