M/S Unitech Limited (the "Company"), having CIN: L74899DL1971 PLC009720, was incorporated on
9th February 1971 with its Registered Office at 6, Community Centre, Saket, New Delhi-110017. The Company is a Real Estate Developer in India and also has interest in the business of Power Transmission and Hospitality, among others. The Company's main line of business is Real Estate Development and related activities, including Construction and allied Services. The Company's equity shares are listed on The Bombay Stock Exchange Limited (BSE) and The National Stock Exchange of India Limited (NSE).
II. Basis of preparation
The Standalone Financial Statements of the Company for the year ended March 31, 2023 were authorized for issue by the Board of Directors in its meeting held on August 29, 2023. These Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with the Indian Accounting Standards (referred to as "Ind AS") as notified by Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013, read with the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015, as amended from time to time.
The preparation of the Company's Financial Statements, in conformity with Ind AS, requires the Company to exercise its judgment in the process of applying the accounting policies. It also requires the use of accounting estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the Financial Statements. These estimates and assumptions are assessed on an on-going basis and are based on past experience and relevant factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances and presented under the historical cost convention on accrual basis of accounting. Accounting Policies have been applied consistently to all periods presented in these Financial Statements. All assets and liabilities have been classified as current or non-current as per the operating cycle of the Company as per the General Instructions for preparation of Balance Sheet and Statement of Profit and Loss of a Company set out in Schedule III to the Companies Act, 2013.
III. Use of estimates
The preparation of Financial Statements, in conformity with generally accepted Accounting Principles, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the Financial Statements and the result of operations during the reporting period. Although these estimates
are based on Management's best knowledge of current events and actions, actual results could differ from these estimates. Significant estimates used by the Management in the preparation of these Financial Statements include project revenue, project cost, saleable area, economic useful lives of fixed assets, accrual of allowance for bad and doubtful receivables, loans and advances and current and deferred taxes. Any revision to accounting estimates is recognized prospectively in accordance with the applicable Accounting Standards.
Significant management judgments
Recognition of Deferred Tax Assets - The extent to which deferred tax assets can be recognized is based on an assessment of the probability of future taxable income against which the deferred tax assets can be utilized.
Evaluation of indicators for impairment of assets - The evaluation of applicability of indicators of impairment of assets requires determination of cash generating units and assessment of several external and internal factors, which could result in deterioration of recoverable amount of assets.
Impairment of financial assets - At each Balance Sheet date, based on historical default rates observed over expected life, the Management assesses the expected credit loss on outstanding financial assets.
Provisions - At each Balance Sheet date based on the Management's judgment, changes in facts and legal aspects, the Company assesses the requirement of provisions against the outstanding contingent liabilities. However, the actual future outcome may be different from this judgment.
Significant estimates
Revenue and Inventories - Inventory recognition requires forecasts to be made of the total Real Estate Development Costs with the outcomes of underlying construction and service contracts which require assessment and judgment to be made on changes in Scope of Work, claims (compensation, rebates, etc.) and other payments to the extent they are probable and they are capable of being reliably measured.
Useful lives of depreciable/ amortizable assets -Management reviews its estimate of the useful lives of depreciable/ amortizable assets at each reporting date, based on the expected utility of the assets. Uncertainties in these estimates relate to technical and economic obsolescence that may change the utility of the assets.
Defined Benefit Obligations (DBO) - Management's estimates of the DBO is based on a number of underlying assumptions, such as, standard rates of
inflation, mortality, discount rate and anticipation of future salary increases. Variation in these assumptions may significantly impact the DBO amount and the annual defined benefit expenses.
Fair value measurements - Management applies valuation techniques to determine the fair market value of financial instruments (where active market quotes are not available). This involves developing estimates and assumptions consistent with how market participants would price the instrument.
IV. Property,plant andequipment &depreciation Transition to Ind AS
The Company has elected to use a previous Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) cost {Cost (-) accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, if any,} of an item of property, plant and equipment at or before the date of transition to Ind AS as deemed cost at the date of transition in accordance with the option provided under Ind AS-101.
Property, plant and equipment (PPE) are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. The initial cost of PPE is the cost of acquisition or construction, inclusive of freight, erection & commissioning charges and any directly attributable costs of bringing an asset to working condition and location for its intended use, including borrowing costs relating to the qualified asset over the period up to the date the asset is ready to commence commercial production. The carrying amount of a PPE is de-recognized when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or on disposal.
The Property, plant and equipment are subsequently measured at cost net of accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. Depreciation on property, plant and equipment is provided on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets, as prescribed in Part C of Schedule II of the Companies Act, 2013.
The PPE acquired under finance leases, if any, is depreciated over the asset's useful life or over the shorter of the asset's useful life and the lease term, if there is no reasonable certainty that the Company will obtain ownership at the end of the lease term. Freehold land is not depreciated. Borrowing costs relating to acquisition of PPE which takes substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use are also included to the extent they relate to the period till such assets are ready to be put to use. Depreciation on PPE is provided based on useful lives of the assets assigned to each asset in accordance with Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013 on straight-line method. Fixtures and lease hold improvements installed in leased buildings are
amortized over the initial period of lease.
V. Intangible assets under development
'Intangible assets under development' represents expenditure incurred in respect of intangible assets under development and are carried at cost less accumulated impairment loss, if any. Cost includes land, related acquisition expenses, development/ construction costs, borrowing costs and other direct expenditure.
VI. Intangibles and amortization
Intangible assets are recognized when it is probable that future economic benefits attributable to asset will flow to the Company and the cost of the asset can be measured reliably. Intangible assets (acquired or developed in-house) are measured on initial recognition at cost. The cost of an intangible asset includes purchase cost (net of rebates and discounts), including any import duties and non-refundable taxes, and any directly attributable costs on making the asset ready for its intended use. Following initial recognition, intangible assets are carried at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses, if any. Internally generated intangible assets, excluding capitalized development costs, which meet capitalization criteria, are not capitalized and expenditure is reflected in the statement of profit and loss in the year in which the expenditure is incurred. Cost of software is amortized over a period of 05 years, being the estimated useful life as per the Management's estimates.
VII. Impairment of assets
The amortization period and method are reviewed at least at each financial year end. If the expected useful life of the asset is significantly different from previous estimates, the amortization period is changed accordingly.
Management at each Balance Sheet date assesses using external and/ or internal sources whether there is an indication that an asset or group of assets or a cash generating unit, as the case may be, may become impaired. Impairment exists where the carrying amount exceeds the fair market value of the asset, represented by the present value of future cash flows expected to arise from the continuing use of the asset and its realizable value. The impairment loss, if any, is charged off to statement of profit and loss.
An intangible asset is derecognized on disposal, or when no future economic benefits are expected from use. Gains and losses arising from de-recognition of an intangible asset 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 de-recognized or on disposal.
VIII. Lease accounting
At the inception of a contract, the Company assesses whether a contract is or it contains a lease agreement or a contract is or it contains a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange of consideration. To assess whether a contract conveys the right to control the use of an asset the Company assesses whether:
(i) The contract involves the use of an identified asset - this may be specified explicitly or implicitly, and should be physically distinct or represent substantially all of the capability of a physical distinct asset. If the supplier has a substantive substitution right, then the asset is not identified;
(ii) The Company has the right to substantially obtain all of the economic benefits from use of the asset throughout the period of use; and
(iii) The Company has the right to direct the use of the asset. The Company has this right when it has the decision-making rights that are most relevant to changes how and for what purpose the asset is used.
Company as a lessee
(i) Right of use Asset
The Company recognizes a right-of-use asset and a lease liability at the lease commencement date. At the commencement date, a lessee shall measure the right-of-use asset at cost which comprises initial measurement of the lease liability, any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, less any lease incentives received, any initial direct costs incurred by the lessee, and an estimate of costs to be incurred by the lessee in dismantling and removing the underlying asset, restoring the site on which it is located or restoring the underlying asset to the condition required by the terms and conditions of the lease.
(ii) Lease Liability
At the commencement date, a lessee shall measure the lease liability at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at that date. The lease payments shall be discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease, if that rate can be readily determined. If that rate cannot be readily determined, the lessee shall use the lessee's incremental borrowing rate.
(iii) Short-term lease and leases of low-value assets
The Company has elected not to recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for short-term
leases that have a lease term of less than 12 months or less and leases of low-value assets, including IT Equipment. The Company recognizes the lease payments associated with these leases as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
The election for short-term leases shall be made by class of underlying asset to which the right of use relates. A class of underlying asset is a grouping of underlying assets of a similar nature and use in Company's operations. The election for leases, for which the underlying asset is of low value, can be made on a lease-by-lease basis.
Company as a lessor
Leases in which the Company does not substantially transfer all the risks and rewards of ownership of an asset are classified as operating leases. Rental income from operating lease is recognized on a straightline basis over the term of the relevant lease. Initial direct costs incurred by lessors in negotiating and arranging an operating lease shall be added to the carrying amount of the leased asset and recognized as an expense over the lease term on the same basis as the lease income. Leases are classified as finance leases when substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership transfer from the Company to the lessee.
IX. Investment property
(i) Recognition and initial measurement
Investment properties are properties held to earn rentals or for capital appreciation, or both. Investment properties are measured initially at their cost of acquisition, including transaction costs. On transition to IND AS, the Company had elected to measure all of its investment properties at the previous GAAP carrying value (deemed cost). The cost comprises purchase price, borrowing cost, if capitalization criteria are met and directly attributable cost of bringing the asset to its working condition for the intended use. Any trade discount and rebates are deducted in arriving at the purchase price. When significant parts of the investment property are required to be replaced at intervals, the Company depreciates them separately based on their specific useful lives. Subsequent costs are included in the asset's carrying amount or recognized as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Company. All other repair and maintenance costs are recognized in the statement of profit or loss as incurred.
(ii) Subsequent measurement (depreciation and useful lives)
Investment properties are subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. Depreciation on investment properties is provided on the straight-line method over the useful lives of the assets as follows:
Asset Category
|
Useful life (in years)
|
Estimated useful life as per Schedule II to the
Companies Act, 2013 (in years)
|
Land & Building
|
60
|
60
|
The Company, based on technical assessment made by technical expert and/ or management estimates, depreciates certain items of building, plant and equipment over estimated useful lives which are different from the useful life prescribed in Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013. The Management believes that these estimated useful lives are realistic and reflect fair approximation of the period over which the assets are likely to be used. The residual values, useful lives and method of depreciation are reviewed at the end of each financial year and adjusted prospectively. Though the Company measures investment property using cost based measurement, the fair value of investment property is disclosed in the notes. Fair values are determined based on evaluation performed by an accredited external independent valuer applying valuation model acceptable internationally.
(iii) De-recognition
Investment properties are de-recognized either when they have been disposed of or when they are permanently withdrawn from use and no future economic benefits are expected from their disposal. The difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset is recognized in the statement of profit or loss in the period of de-recognition.
X. Inventories
(i) The cost of inventories comprises the cost of purchase, cost of conversion and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. Inventories are valued at cost or net realizable value, whichever is lower on the basis of first-in-first-out method, average cost method or specific identification, as the case may be.
(ii) Finished stock of completed Real Estate Projects,
land and land development rights are valued at lower of the cost or net realizable value on the basis of actual identified units.
XI. Projects in progress
Project in progress disclosed as at reporting date in respect of Real Estate development and related activities includes aggregate amount of project costs incurred and recognized profit (less recognized losses) including unbilled revenue and project costs that relate to future activity on the contract where it is probable that these costs will be recovered in future upto the reporting date less amount received from customers, for all projects.
Project costs include cost of land, land development rights, construction costs, job work, allocated borrowing costs and other incidental costs including the cost of any delayed penalty, already committed to the customers that are attributable to project and such other costs as are specifically chargeable to the customer being costs incurred upto the reporting date.
Unbilled revenue represents revenue recognized on percentage of completion method to the extent not billed to customers as per contractual payment plan/ milestones. The application of IND AS 115 has impact on Projects in Progress and must be read along with 'Significant accounting policy no. XII below.
XII. Borrowing Costs
Borrowing cost relating to acquisition/ construction development of qualifying assets of the Company are not capitalized until the time all substantial activities necessary to prepare the qualifying assets for their intended use are complete. A qualifying asset is the one that necessarily takes substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use/ sale. Borrowing costs that are attributable to the project in progress and qualifying land advances as well as any capital work in progress are charged to respective qualifying asset. Borrowing costs incurred/ proportioned on projects, otherwise qualified for capitalization, where ultimate expected profitability is expected to be negative, is not capitalized, and is charged to statement of profit and loss. All other borrowing costs, not eligible for capitalization, are charged to the statement of profit and loss.
XIII. Revenue recognition
The Company derives revenues primarily from the business of Real Estate development and related activities including construction, consultancy and rentals etc. Further, most of the business conducted is within the geographical boundaries of India.
Revenue is recognized in accordance with the principles laid down under IND AS-115.
(1) Real estate projects
The Company recognizes revenue using Percentage of Completion Method (POCM), where performance obligation is satisfied over a period of time.
Performance obligations are satisfied over time when the Company transfers control of goods over time and, therefore, satisfies a performance obligation and recognizes revenue over time, if (i) the Company's performance creates or enhances the asset, viz. projects in progress, that the customer controls as the asset is created or enhanced, or (ii) the Company's performance does not create an asset with an alternative use to the entity and the entity has an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date.
Revenues in excess of invoicing are classified as contract assets (also referred to as unbilled revenue) while invoicing in excess of revenues are classified as contract liabilities (also referred to as unearned revenues).
The amount of contract revenue may increase or decrease from one period to the next on account of:
(i) Variations or claims contractually agreed that increase or decrease contract revenue in a period subsequent to that in which the contract with customers was initially agreed; and
(ii) Penalties arising from delays caused by the Company in the completion of the contract where such penalties are certain. These penalties do not include those which have not yet been committed to the customers where the possession of the unit has not been handed over.
Further, the Company recognizes revenue on Percentage of Completion Method (POCM) on completion of the following events:
(i) All critical approvals necessary for commencement of the project have been obtained including, wherever applicable -environmental & other clearances, approval of plans, designs etc., title to land or other rights of development/ construction & change in land use;
(ii) The expenditure incurred on construction & development is not less than 25% of the construction and development costs;
(iii) At least 25% of the saleable project area is secured by contracts or agreements with buyers;
(iv) The Company starts giving possession in that project and has qualified for the criterion as stated in IND AS 115; and
(v) At least 10% of the total revenue as per the agreements of sale or any other legally enforceable document are realized at the reporting date in respect of each of the contracts & it is reasonable to expect that the parties to such contracts will comply with the payment terms as defined in the contracts.
When it is probable that total costs will exceed total project revenue, the expected loss is recognized as an expense immediately.
An entity shall account for a contract with a customer that is within the scope of this Standard only when all of the following criteria are met:
(i) The parties to the contract have approved the contract (in writing, orally or in accordance with other customary business practices) and are committed to perform their respective obligations;
(ii) The entity can identify each party's rights regarding the goods or services to be transferred;
(iii) The entity can identify the payment terms for the goods or services to be transferred;
(iv) The contract has commercial substance (i.e. the risk, timing or amount of the entity's future cash flows is expected to change as a result of the contract); and
(v) It is probable that the entity will conduct the consideration to which it will be entitled in exchange for the goods or services that will be transferred to the customer. In evaluating whether collectability of an amount of consideration is probable, an entity shall consider only the customer's ability and intention to pay that amount of consideration when it is due. The amount of consideration to which the entity will be entitled may be less than the price stated in the contract if the consideration is variable because the entity may offer the customer a price concession.
(2) Construction contracts
The Company recognizes revenue from construction contracts using Percentage of Completion Method (POCM), where performance obligation is satisfied over a period of time.
Performance obligations are satisfied over time
when the Company transfers control of goods over time and, therefore, satisfies a performance obligation and recognizes revenue over time, if (a) the Company's performance creates or enhances an asset, viz. projects in progress, that the customer controls as the asset is created or enhanced, or (b) the Company's performance does not create an asset with an alternative use to the entity and the entity has an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date.
(i) The stage of completion under the POC method is measured on the basis of percentage that actual costs incurred on construction contracts to the total estimated cost of the contract.
(ii) Revenue on account of contract variations, claims and incentives are recognized/ adjusted upon settlement or when it becomes reasonably certain that such variations, claims and incentives are both measurable and recoverable/ adjustable.
Contract revenue is measured at fair value of the consideration received or receivable. The measurement of contract revenue is affected by a variety of uncertainties that depend on the outcome of future events. The estimates often need to be revised as events occur and uncertainties are resolved. Therefore, the amount of contract revenue may increase or decrease from one period to the next.
(3) Accounting of projects with co-developers (JVs)
All the development expenses and sale proceeds booked during the year are transferred to the co-developer at the year-end as per the mutual agreement with each such co-developer.
(4) Sale of land and land development rights
Revenue from sale of land and development rights is recognized upon transfer of all significant risks and rewards of ownership of such real estate/ property, as per the terms of the contracts entered into with buyers, which generally coincides with the firming of the sales contracts/ agreements.
(5) Sale of construction material
Revenue from sale of construction material is recognized when transfer of significant risk and rewards of such material takes place. Such sale is recognized net of taxes.
(6) Sale of investment
Net sale proceeds of the investments including the investment in subsidiaries, joint ventures
and associates developing real estate projects, are recognized on completion of sale of such investment.
(7) Consultancy income
Consultancy income is recognized on accrual basis based on contractual terms on the performance of such services. Revenue is recognized proportionately by reference to the performance of acts defined contractually. The revenue is recognized when it is reasonably sure that the Company has completed its performance obligation and the revenue shall ultimately be realized. The revenue recognized is determined on the basis of contract value, associated costs, number of acts or other suitable basis. .
(8) Interest income
Interest income is recognized only when no significant uncertainty as to measurability or collectability exists. Income is recognized on a time proportion basis taking into account the amount outstanding and the rate applicable. Interest income from financial Assets is recognized using E.I.R. method.
(9) Dividend income
Dividend income is recognized when the right to receive the same is established.
(10) Income from interest on delayed payment by customers
The revenue on account of interest on delayed payment by customers is accounted for at the time of acceptance/ settlement with customers due to uncertainties with regard to determination of amount receivable until then.
XIV. Foreign currency transactions
These Financial Statements are presented in Indian Rupees (INR), which is the Company's functional currency. A foreign currency transaction is recorded, on initial recognition in the reporting currency, by applying to the foreign currency amount the exchange rate between the reporting currency and the foreign currency on the date of the transaction. Monetary items denominated in a foreign currency are reported using the closing rate or at the amount which is likely to be realized from, or required to disburse such items at the balance sheet date as the situation demands. Non-monetary items carried in term of historical cost denominated in foreign currency, are reported using exchange rate at the date of transaction. Exchange differences arising on the settlement of monetary items or on reporting an enterprise's monetary items at rates different from those at which they were initially
recorded during the period, or reported in previous financial statements, are recognized as income or as expenses in the period in which they arise. Exchange differences arising on reporting of long term monetary assets at rates different from those at which they were initially reported during the period or previous periods in so far they relate to the acquisition of depreciable capital asset is added to or deducted from the cost of assets.
The Financial Statement of an integral operation is translated using the above principle and procedures. In translating the Financial Statement of a non-integral foreign operation for incorporation in its Financial Statement, the following principles and procedures are followed:
(i) Assets and liabilities, both monetary and nonmonetary, of the non-integral foreign operation are translated at the closing rate.
(ii) Income and expense items of the non-integral foreign operation are translated at exchange rates at the date of the transactions.
(iii) All resulting exchange differences are accumulated in a foreign currency translation reserve until the disposal of the net investment.
XV. Taxes on income
Tax Expenses have been computed as per the provisions contained in IND AS 12. The tax expense for the period comprises the sum of current tax and deferred income tax. Tax is recognized in the statement of Profit & Loss, except to the extent that it relates to items recognized in the other comprehensive income or in equity, in which case, the tax is also recognized in Other Comprehensive income.
(i) Current tax
Current tax assets & liabilities are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the income tax authorities, based on tax rates and laws that are enacted at balance sheet date.
(ii) Deferred Tax
Deferred tax is recognized on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets & liabilities in the Financial Statements and the corresponding tax bases used in computation of taxable profit.
Deferred tax assets & liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in which the liability is settled or the asset realized, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. The carrying
amount of deferred tax liabilities and assets are reviewed at the end of each reporting period.
XVI. Employee benefits
Employee benefits have been computed as per the
provisions contained in IND AS 19
(i) Short-term employee benefits
The Company recognizes the undiscounted amount of short-term employee benefits expected to be paid in exchange for services rendered by employees as -
(a) a liability (accrued expense) after deducting any amount already paid. Excess of amounts paid over liability incurred is treated as prepaid expenses; or
(b) an expense unless it is eligible to be charged to project in progress or capital work in progress or fixed asset as the case may be.
(ii) Post-employment benefits
(a) Defined contribution plans
The Company, as per details hereunder, operates defined contribution plans pertaining to Employees State Insurance scheme, Government administered Pension Fund scheme, Provident Fund plan and Superannuation scheme for eligible employees.
The above defined contribution plans are post-employment benefit plans under which the Company pays fixed contributions into separate entities (funds) or to financial institutions or state managed benefit schemes. The Company's contribution to defined contribution plans are recognized in the statement of profit and loss in the financial year to which they relate.
? Employees State Insurance/ Pension Fund scheme:
The Company makes specified monthly contribution towards Employees State Insurance scheme and government administrated pension fund scheme.
? Provident Fund plan:
The Company is obliged to make specified monthly contributions towards Employee Provident Fund registered with the Regional Provident Fund Commissioner.
(b) Defined benefit obligations
The cost of providing benefits i.e. gratuity and leave encashment is determined using the projected unit credit method, with actuarial valuations carried out annually as at the balance sheet date. Actuarial gains and losses are recognized immediately in the statement of profit and loss. The fair value of the plan assets is reduced from the gross obligation under the defined benefit plan, to recognize the obligation on net basis. Past service cost is recognized as expense on a straight-line basis over the average period until the benefits become vested.
XVII. Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets
Provisions: Provisions are recognized in respect of liabilities, which can be measured only by using a substantial degree of estimates when:
(i) the Company has a present obligation as a result of a past event;
(ii) a probable outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation; and
(iii) the amount of the obligation can be reliably estimated.
Reimbursement expected in respect of expenditure required to settle a provision is recognized only when it is virtually certain that the reimbursement will be received.
Contingent Liability: Contingent liability is disclosed in the case of:
(i) a present obligation arising from a past event, when it is not probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation; and
(ii) a possible obligation, that arises out of past events and the existence of which will be confirmed only by one or more uncertain future events unless the probability of outflow of resources is remote.
Contingent Assets: Contingent assets are neither recognized nor disclosed. However, when realization of income is virtually certain, related asset is recognized.
XVIII. Cash & cash equivalents
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 twelve months or less. Cash flow statement is prepared using the indirect method.
XIX. Earnings per share
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the
net profit or loss for the period attributable to equity shareholders by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period. The weighted average numbers of equity shares outstanding during the period are adjusted for events of bonus issue, a share split and share warrants conversion.
Diluted earnings per share is calculated by adjusting net profit or loss for the period attributable to equity shareholders and the weighted number of shares outstanding during the period for the effect of all dilutive potential equity shares.
Further, where the statement of profit and loss includes extraordinary items, the Company discloses basic and diluted earnings per share computed on the basis of earnings excluding extraordinary items (net of tax expenses).
XX. Fair value measurement
The Company is required to measure the 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 ordinary 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:
(i) In the principal market for the asset or liability, or
(ii) In the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the asset or liability.
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. All assets and liabilities, for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the financial statements, are categorized within the fair value hierarchy, described as follows, based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole:
Level 1: Quoted (unadjusted) market prices in
active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: Valuation techniques for which the
lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is directly or indirectly observable.
Level 3: Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is unobservable.
For the purpose of fair value disclosures, the Company has determined classes of assets & liabilities on the basis of the nature, characteristics and the risks of the asset or liability and the level of the fair value hierarchy as explained above.
XXI. Financial instrument
A financial instrument is any contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one entity and a financial liability or equity instrument of another entity. Financial assets includes trade receivable, loan to body corporate, loan to employees, security deposits and other eligible current and non-current assets. Financial liabilities include Loans, trade payables and eligible current and non-current liabilities.
(1) Classification
The Company classifies financial assets as subsequently measured at amortized cost, fair value through other comprehensive income or fair value through profit or loss on the basis of both:
(i) the entity's business model for managing the financial assets; and
(ii) the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial asset.
A financial asset is measured at amortized cost if both of the following conditions are met:
(i) the financial asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows; and
(ii) 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.
A financial asset is measured at fair value through other comprehensive income if both of the following conditions are met:
(i) the financial asset is held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets; and
(ii) 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.
A financial asset is measured at fair value through profit or loss unless it is measured at amortized cost or at fair value through other comprehensive income.
All financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method or fair value through profit or loss.
(2) 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 at initial recognition, plus or minus, any transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities that are not at fair value through profit or loss.
(3) Financial assets subsequent measurement
Financial assets are subsequently measured at amortized cost, fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI) or fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL), as the case may be, except for the investments where no information is available with the Company. Such investments are subsequently measured at cost. Financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortized cost or fair value through profit or loss.
(4) Effective interest method
The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortized cost of a debt instrument and allocating interest income over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the debt instrument, or, where appropriate, a shorter period, to the net carrying amount on initial recognition. Income is recognized on an effective interest basis for debt instruments other than those financial assets classified as at FVTPL. Interest income is recognized in profit or loss and is included in the "Other income" line item.
(5) Trade receivables
Trade receivables are the contractual right to receive cash or other financial assets and recognized initially at fair value. These are subsequently measured at amortized cost (Initial fair value less expected credit loss). Expected credit loss is the difference between all contractual cash flows that are due to the Company and all that the Company expects to receive (i.e. all cash shortfall), discounted at the effective interest rate.
(6) Equity investments
All equity investments in the scope of IND AS 109 are measured at fair value other than investments
in subsidiary, associate & Joint Venture which are stated at cost as per IND AS 27 'separate financial statement'. For all other equity instruments, the Company may make an irrevocable election to present in other comprehensive income subsequent changes in the fair value. The Company makes such election on an instrument -by - instrument basis. For other equity instrument due to non-availability of sufficient and recent information, cost is taken as appropriate estimate of fair value with reference to IND AS 109 'financial instrument'.
(7) Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalent in the balance sheet comprise cash at banks and on hand and shortterm deposits with an original maturity of twelve months or less, which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.
(8) Financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are recognized initially at fair value less any directly attributable transaction costs. These are subsequently carried at amortized cost using the effective interest method or fair value through profit or 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.
(9) Trade payables
Trade payables represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Company prior to the end of financial year and which are unpaid. Trade payables are presented as current liabilities unless payment is not due within 12 months after the reporting period or not paid/ payable within operating cycle. They are recognized initially at their fair value and subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method.
(10) Borrowings
Borrowings are initially recognized at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently measured at amortized cost. Any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption amount is recognized in profit or loss over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method. Fees paid on the establishment of loan facilities are recognized as transaction costs of the loan.
Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the Company has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period. Where there
is a breach of a material provision of a long-term loan arrangement on or before the end of the reporting period with the effect that the liability becomes payable on demand on the reporting date, the Company does not classify the liability as current, if the lender agreed, after the reporting period and before the approval of the financial statements for issue, not to demand payment as a consequence of the breach.
(11) Equity Instruments
An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of Company after deducting all of its liabilities. Equity instruments are recognized at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs.
(12) Derecognition of financial instrument
The Company de-recognizes 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 de-recognized from the Company's balance sheet when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged or cancelled or expires.
(13) Offsetting of financial instruments
Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the balance sheet if there is a currently enforceable legal right to offset the recognized amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis, to realize the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.
(14) Financial guarantee
Financial guarantee contracts issued by the entities are those contracts that require a payment to be made to reimburse the holder for a loss it incurs because the specified debtor fails to make a payment when due in accordance with the terms of a debt instrument. Financial guarantee contracts are recognized initially as a liability at fair value, adjusted for transaction costs that are directly attributable to the issuance of the guarantee. Subsequently, the liability is measured at the higher of the amount of loss allowance determined as per impairment requirements of IND AS 109 and the amount recognized less cumulative amortization.
XXII. Non-current assets held for sale/ distribution to
owners and discontinued operations
The Company classifies non-current assets (or disposal
groups) as held for sale if their carrying amounts will be recovered principally through a sale rather than through continuing use. Held for sale is classified only if the asset (or disposal group) is available for immediate sale in its present condition subject only to the terms that are usual and customary for sale for such assets (or disposal group) and its sale is highly probable i.e. management is committed to sale, which is expected to be completed within the period of contract, as may have been extended by the term of the contract or otherwise. Sale transactions include exchanges of non-current assets for other non-current assets when the exchange has commercial substance. Non-current assets (or disposal group) that is to be abandoned are not classified as held for sale. Non-current assets held for sale and disposal groups are measured at cost as the fair value is not available with the Company the lower of their carrying amount and the fair value less costs to sell. Assets and liabilities classified as held for sale are presented separately in the balance sheet.
Interest and other expenses attributable to the liabilities of a disposal group classified as 'held for sale' will continue to be recognized.
Non-current asset (or disposal group) is reclassified from 'held to sale' if the criteria are no longer met and measured at lower of:
(i) Its carrying amount before the asset (or Disposal group) was classified as held for sale, adjusted for any depreciation, amortization or revaluations that would have been recognized had the asset (or disposal group) not been classified as held for sale; and
(ii) Its recoverable amount at the date of the subsequent decision not to sell.
Any adjustment to the carrying amount of a non-current asset that ceases to be classified as held for sale is charged to profit or loss from continuing operations in the period in which criteria are no longer met.
A disposal group qualifies as discontinued operation if it is a component of an entity that either has been disposed-off, or is classified as held for sale, and:
(i) represents a separate major line of business or geographical area of operations;
(ii) is part of a single coordinated plan to dispose of a separate major line of business or geographical area of operations; or
(iii) is a subsidiary acquired exclusively with a view to re-sell.
