2.15 Borrowing Costs
Borrowing costs consist of interest and other costs that an entity incurs in connection with the borrowing of funds. Borrowing costs also include
exchange differences to the extent regarded as an adjustment to the borrowing costs.
All borrowing costs are charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss except:
Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition or construction of assets that necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready
for its intended use are capitalised as part of the cost of such assets.
Investment Income earned on the temporary investment of funds of specific borrowings pending their expenditure on qualifying assets is
deducted from the borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation.
2.16 Segment reporting
According to Ind AS 108, identification of operating segments is based on Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) approach for making
decisions about allocating resources to the segment and assessing its performance. The business activity of the company falls within one broad
business segment viz. "Pharmaceutical products" and substantially sale of the products and Non-current assets are within the country.
2.17 Business combination
Business combinations - common control transactions
Business combinations arising from transfers of interests in entities that are under the common control are accounted in accordance with
"Pooling of Interest Method” laid down by Appendix C of Indian Accounting Standard 103 (Ind AS 103) Business combinations of entities under
common control, notified under the Companies Act, 2013.
The assets and liabilities of the combining entities are reflected at their carrying amounts. No adjustments are made to reflect fair values, or
recognise any new assets or liabilities. The only adjustments that are made are to harmonise accounting policies.
The financial information in the financial statements in respect of prior periods should be restated as if the business combination had occurred
from the beginning of the preceding period in the financial statements, irrespective of the actual date of the combination. However, if business
combination had occurred after that date, the prior period information shall be restated only from that date.
The balance of the retained earnings appearing in the financial statements of the transferor is aggregated with the corresponding balance
appearing in the financial statements of the transferee. The identity of the reserves shall be preserved and shall appear in the financial
statements of the transferee in the same form in which they appeared in the financial statements of the transferor.
The difference, if any, between the amount recorded as share capital issued plus any additional consideration in the form of cash or other assets
and the amount of share capital of the transferor shall be transferred to capital reserve and should be presented separately from other capital
reserves with disclosure of its nature and purpose in the notes.
Business combinations - acquisition method
The acquisition method of accounting is used to account for all business combinations, regardless of whether equity instruments or other assets
are acquired. The consideration transferred for the acquisition of a subsidiary comprises the
• fair values of the assets transferred
• liabilities incurred to the former owners of the acquired business
• equity interests issued by the company
• fair value of any asset or liability resulting from a contingent consideration arrangement.
Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are, with limited exceptions, measured
initially at their fair values at the acquisition date. The company recognises any non-controlling interest in the acquired entity on an acquisition-
by-acquisition basis either at fair value or at the non-controlling interest's proportionate share of the acquired entity's net identifiable assets.
Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred.
The excess of the:
• consideration transferred
• amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquired entity
• acquisition-date fair value of any previous equity interest in the acquired entity
over the fair value of the net identifiable assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. If those amounts are less than the fair value of the net
identifiable assets of the business acquired, the difference is recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity as capital
reserve provided there is clear evidence of the underlying reasons for classifying the business combination as a bargain purchase. In other cases,
the bargain purchase gain is recognised directly in equity as capital reserve.
Where settlement of any part of cash consideration is deferred, the amounts payable in the future are discounted to their present value as at the
date of exchange. The discount rate used is the entity's incremental borrowing rate, being the rate at which a similar borrowing could be
obtained from an independent financier under comparable terms and conditions.
Contingent consideration is classified either as equity or a financial liability. Amounts classified as a financial liability are subsequently
remeasured to fair value with changes in fair value recognised in profit or loss.
If the business combination is achieved in stages, the acquisition date carrying value of the acquirer's previously held equity interest in the
acquiree is remeasured to fair value at the acquisition date. Any gains or losses arising from such remeasurement are recognised in profit or loss
or other comprehensive income, as appropriate.
2.18 Rounding off amounts
All amounts disclosed in financial statements and notes have been rounded off to the nearest millions as per requirement of Schedule III of the
Act, unless otherwise stated.
3 Significant accounting judgments, estimates and
The preparation of financial statements requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities, and the accompanying disclosures, and the disclosure of contingent liabilities. Uncertainty about these
assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets or liabilities affected in future
years.
3.1 Estimates and assumptions
The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the year end date, that have a significant risk of
causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year, are described below. The company
based its assumptions and estimates on parameters available when the financial statements were prepared. Existing circumstances and
assumptions about future developments, however, may change due to market changes or circumstances arising that are beyond the control of
the company. Such changes are reflected in the assumptions when they occur.
Key source of judgments, assumptions and estimates in the preparation of the Financial Statements which may cause a material adjustment to
the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year, are in respect of useful lives of Property, Plant and Equipment,
impairment, employee benefit obligations, provisions, provision for income tax, measurement of deferred tax assets and contingent assets &
liabilities.
(a) Useful lives of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets
As described in the Material accounting policies, the company reviews the estimated useful lives of property, plant and equipment and intangible
assets at the end of each reporting period. Useful lives of intangible assets is determined on the basis of estimated benefits to be derived from
use of such intangible assets. These reassessments may result in change in the depreciation /amortisation expense in future periods.
(b) Fair value measurements and valuation processes
Some of the company's assets and liabilities are measured at fair value at each balance sheet date or at the time they are assessed for
impairment. In estimating the fair value of an asset or a liability, the company uses market-observable data to the extent it is available. Where
Level 1 inputs are not available, the company engages third party valuers, where required, to perform the valuation. Information about the
valuation techniques and inputs used in determining the fair value of various assets and liabilities require estimates to be made by the
management and are disclosed in the notes to consolidated financial statements.
(c) Actuarial Valuation
The determination of company's liability towards defined benefit obligation to employees is made through independent actuarial valuation
including determination of amounts to be recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss and in Other Comprehensive Income. Such valuation
depend upon assumptions determined after taking into account discount rate, salary growth rate, expected rate of return, mortality and attrition
rate. Information about such valuation is provided in notes to the financial statements.
(d) Impairment of non-financial assets
In assessing impairment, management estimates the recoverable amount of each asset or cash-generating units based on expected future cash
flows and uses an interest rate to discount them. Estimation uncertainty relates to assumptions about future operating results and the
determination of a suitable discount rate.
(e) Revenue from Contracts with Customers
The company has applied judgments that significantly affect the determination of the amount and timing of revenue from contracts with
customers.
3.2 Critical Accounting Judgements and Key Sources of Estimation
The preparation of the company's financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the
reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities, and the accompanying disclosures, and the disclosure of contingent liabilities at
the date of the financial statements. Estimates and assumptions are continuously evaluated and are based on management's experience and
other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Uncertainty about these
assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets or liabilities affected in
future periods.
Key source of judgments, assumptions and estimates in the preparation of the Financial Statements which may cause a material adjustment to
the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year, are in respect of useful lives of Property, Plant and Equipment,
impairment, employee benefit obligations, provisions, provision for income tax, measurement of deferred tax assets and contingent assets &
liabilities.
(i) Critical judgments in applying accounting policies
The following are the areas of estimation uncertainty and critical judgements that the management has made in the process of applying the
company's accounting policies and that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements:-
(a) Determining whether an arrangement contain leases and classification of leases
Ind AS 116 requires lessees to determine the lease term as the non-cancellable period of a lease adjusted with any option to extend or terminate
the lease, if the use of such option is reasonably certain. The company makes an assessment on the expected lease term on a lease-by-lease basis
and thereby assesses whether it is reasonably certain that any options to extend or terminate the contract will be exercised. In evaluating the
lease term, the company considers factors such as any significant leasehold improvements undertaken over the lease term, costs relating to the
termination of the lease and the importance of the underlying asset to operations taking into account the location of the underlying asset and the
availability of suitable alternatives. The lease term in future periods is reassessed to ensure that the lease term reflects the current economic
circumstances.
(b) Evaluation of indicators for impairment of Property, Plant and Equipment
The evaluation of applicability of indicators of impairment of assets requires assessment of external factors (significant decline asset's value,
economic or legal environment, market interest rates etc.) and internal factors (obsolescence or physical damage of an asset or poor economic
performance of the asset etc.) which could result in significant change in recoverable amount of the Property, Plant and Equipment.
(ii) Assumptions and key sources of estimation uncertainty
(a) Assets and obligations relating to employee benefits
The employment benefit obligations depends on a number of factors that are determined on an actuarial basis using a number of assumptions.
The assumptions used in determining the net cost/ (income) include the discount rate, inflation and mortality assumptions. Any changes in
these assumptions will impact upon the carrying amount of employment benefit obligations.
(b) Impairment of non-financial 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 CGU's fair value less costs of disposal and its value in use. It is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not
generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets or companys of assets. Where 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. These calculations are
corroborated by valuation multiples, quoted share prices for publicly traded subsidiaries or other available fair value indicators.
(c) Useful lives of Property, Plant and Equipment/Intangible Assets
Property, Plant and Equipment/ Intangible Assets are depreciated/amortised over their estimated useful lives, after taking into account
estimated residual value. The useful lives and residual values are based on the company's historical experience with similar assets and taking
into account anticipated technological changes or commercial obsolescence. Management reviews the estimated useful lives and residual values
of the assets annually in order to determine the amount of depreciation/amortisation to be recorded during any reporting period. The
depreciation/amortisation for future periods is revised, if there are significant changes from previous estimates and accordingly, the
unamortised/depreciable amount is charged over the remaining useful life of the assets.
(d) Income taxes
The company uses estimates and judgements based on the relevant facts, circumstances, present and past experience, rulings, and new
pronouncements while determining the provision for income tax. A deferred tax asset is recognised to the extent that it is probable that future
taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences and tax losses can be utilised.
4 Recent accounting pronouncements
Ministry of Corporate Affairs ("MCA”) notifies new standards or amendments to the existing standards under Companies (Indian Accounting Standards)
Rules as issued from time to time. For the year ended 31 March 2025, MCA has not notified any new standards or amendments to the existing standards
applicable to the company. The company adopted Disclosure of Accounting (amendment to Ind AS 1) from 1 April 2023. Although the amendment did
not result in any changes in the accounting policies themselves, they impacted the accounting policy information disclosed in the standalone financial
statement. The amendment requires the disclosure of ’material’ rather than ’significant’ accounting policies. The amendments also provide guidance on
the application of materiality to disclosure of accounting policies, assisting entities to provide useful, entity specific accounting policy information that
users need to understand other information in the standalone financial statement.
