Summary of significant accounting policies
1.2 Property, plant and equipment:
AH items of property plant and equipment are stated at acquisition cost net of accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the items. The Company follows cost model for subsequent measurement for all classes and items of property, plant and equipment.
Subsequent costs are included in the carrying amount of asset or recognised 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. All other repairs and maintenance expenses are charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss during the period in which they are incurred Gains or losses arising on retirement or disposal of assets are
recognised in the Profit or Loss.
Spare parts, stand-by equipment and servicing equipment are recognised as property, plant and equipment if they meet the definition of property, plant and equipment.
Property, plant and equipment which are not ready for intended use as on the date of Balance Sheet are disclosed as Capital work-in-progress'
Depreciation on Tangible Fixed Assets is provided on Written Down Value (WDV) on the basis of useful life of assets specified in Part C of Schedule II of the Companies Act, 2013
Property, plant and equipment which are added / disposed off during the year, depreciation is provided on pro-rata basis with reference to the day of addition / deletion
Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying method The residual values are not more than 5% of the original cost of the asset, wherever applicable
The residual values, useful lives and method of depreciation of property, plant and equipment are reviewed at each financial year end and any changes there-m arc considered as change in estimate and accounted prospectively.
Depreciation and useful life
Depreciable amount for assets is the cost of an asset, or other amount substituted for cost, less its estimated residual value. Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost of assets (other than freehold land and properties under construction) less their residual values over their useful lives, using straight-line method as per the useful life prescribed in Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013.
Derecognition
An item of PPE is de-recognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset Any gain or loss arising on the disposal or retirement of an item of property, plant and equipment is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and is recognised in Statement of Profit and Loss
1.3 Investment properties:
Property that is held for long-term rental yields or for capital appreciation or both, and that is not in use by the Company, is classified as investment property Land held for a currently undetermined future use is also classified as an investment property
Investment property is measured initially at its acquisition cost, including related transaction costs and where applicable borrowing costs and arc earned at cost less accumulated impairment losses
Investment properties are subsequently measured at cost less depreciation Investment properties are depreciated using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives. Investment properties generally have a useful life of 35-50 years The useful life has been determined based on technical evaluation performed by the management’s expert.
1.4 Impairment of fixed assets
The Company assesses, at each reporting date, whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. If any indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the Company estimates the asset's recoverable amount An asset’s recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s or cash-generating unit’s (CGU) fair value less costs of disposal and its value in use Recoverable amount is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets or groups of assets When the carrying amount of an asset or CGU exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount.
In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset In determining fair value less costs of disposal, recent market transactions are taken into account If no such transactions can be identified, an appropriate valuation model is used Impairment losses arc recognised in statement of profit and loss.
1.5 Inventories:
Inventories are carried in the balance sheet as follows:
(i) Raw materials, components, stores and spares :
Raw materials, components, stores and spares are valued at lower of cost or net realisable value The Raw material is valued at Net Realisable Value in the year under consideration
(ii) Work-in-progress and Finished goods:
Cost of work-in-progress and finished goods comprises direct materials, direct labour and an appropriate proportion of variable and fixed overhead expenditure Fixed overheads are allocated on the basis of normal operating capacity Cost of inventories also include all other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition Costs arc assigned to the individual items in a group of inventories on the basis of First in first out basis Costs of purchased inventory are determined after deducting rebates and discounts 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
The devaluation of the stock is due to the following factors and reasons and hence, Net Realisable Value is reported
1 Cancellation of orders There were various orders that were received from government companies during the COVID-19 pandemic period Due to operational issues, the manufacturing of these orders got delayed, which resulted in cancellation of various high value orders from customers These materials were madc-to-ordcr and hence once the chemical composition for the required customer is made, it cannot be diverted or sold to any other customer Due to this reason, the valuation of the product has to be revalued as scrap
2 Obsolete stock There was various stock manufactured for supply of material to distributors During the pandemic, these distributors had cash flow troub le due to which their payments to our company got very delayed The company decided to stop this line of business in this financial year Hence, the stock manufactured for these customers also need to be revalued accordingly
The stock issues were discussed in the board meeting dated 13/12/22 and the revaluation was accepted by the board on 14/02/2023 The devaluation to net realisable value was implemented once the management was clear of the fact that there is no market otherwise for the products and the quality over the period has also depleted
The diminished value of the inventory is reported under the exceptional item which has increased the loss of the company. The total value reduces is of Rs. 8883.70 (in lakhs) which consists of Rs. In lakhs - Rs. 741.16 in case of Finished Goods, Rs. 6321.14 in case of Raw Material and Rs. 1821.40 in case of Work in Progress.

The Balance with banks includes Rs I 67 Crores which has been appropriated by Bank of India daring Holding On Operations However, we are not able to determine the corresponding impact of the same and is therefore appearing as cash and cash equivalents.
