The Company has reviewed all its pending litigations and proceedings and has adequately provided for, where provisions are required and disclosed the contingent liabilities where applicable, in its financial statements. The Company does not expect the outcome of these proceedings to have any materially adverse effect on its financial results. For details on contingent liabilities refer Note 40.1 above.
40.3 The Company has an exposure of E 190.33 (March 31, 2023: E 245.11) in the form of investment, advances and other receivable from its wholly owned subsidiary which is substantially more than its net worth. However, taking into account the business plan of the subsidiary, the Company has not considered necessary to provide for any losses.
The Company has defined benefit plan for payment of gratuity to all qualifying employees. It is governed by the Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972. Under this Act, an employee who has completed five years of service is entitled to the specified benefits which depends on the employee''s length of service and salary at retirement age. The Company''s defined benefit plan is Non-Funded.
There are no other post retirement benefits provided by the Company.
The present value of the defined benefit obligation, the related current service cost and past service cost, were measured using the projected unit credit method.
In presenting the above sensitivity analysis, the present value of the defined benefit obligaiton has been calculated using "Projected Unit Credit" method as at the date of the Balance Sheet which is the same as that applied in calculating the defined benefit obligation liability recognized in Balance Sheet.
There were no changes in the methods and assumptions used in preparing the sensitivity analysis from prior years.
These plans typically expose the Company to a number of risks, the most significant of which are detailed below:
A decrease in the bond interest rate will increase the plan liability.
The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated by reference to the best estimate of the mortality of plan participants during their employment. An increase in the life expectancy of the plan participants will increase the plan''s liability.
The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated by reference to the future salaries of plan participants. As such, any increase in the salary of the plan participants will increase the plan''s liability.
Based on actuarial valuation carried out using projected unit credit method, the Independent Actuary has determined the liability towards leave encashment at E 40.46 as at the end of the year as compared to E 36.53 as at the beginning of the year. The resultant additinal liability of E 3.93 (Previous year E 12.58) has been debited to Employees benefit (Refer Note 37).
(i) The remuneration of directors and key executives is determined by the remuneration committee having regard to the performance of individuals and market trends. Remuneration do not include provisions for encashable leave, gratuity and premium paid for group health insurance since these are based on valuation on an overall Company basis.
(ii) Corporate Guarantee by Amisco Agrochem Limited and Personal Guarantee by Pradip P Dave, Ashit P Dave and Samir P Dave with respect to Borrowings by the Company amounting to E 2500.00 Lakh (Previous year a 3,800.00 La kh).
Basic Earnings 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.
Diluted EPS is calculated by dividing the profit attributable to equity share holders of the Company by the weighted average number of Equity shares outstanding during the year after adjusting for the effect of dilutive potential equity shares.
For the purpose of the Company''s capital management, capital includes issued equity capital, securities premium and all other equity reserves attributable to the equity shareholders.
The Company manages its capital structure with a view to ensure that it will be able to continue as a going concern while maximising the return to stakeholders through the optimization of the debt and equity balance.
The capital structure of the Company consists of net debt (borrowings as detailed in notes 23 and 26) and total equity of the Company.
The Company''s management reviews the capital structure of the Company on an annual basis. As part of this review, the management considers the cost of capital and the risks associated with each class of capital.
The fair value for financial instruments which are measured at amortised cost (e.g. trade receivables, cash and cash equivalents, trade payables etc.) has fair value which is reasonably approximate carrying value. Fair values for those financial assets and finacial liabilities have not been disclosed in the above table.
There are no financial instruments which are measured using level 1 quoted price in active markets and level 3 valuation technique.
Valuation techniques and significant observable inputs.
The following tables show the valuation techniques used in measuring level 2 fair values, as well as the significant observable inputs used (if any).
The Company''s Board of Directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the Company''s risk management framework.
The Company''s risk management policies are established to identify and analyse the risks faced by the Company, to set appropriate risk limits and controls and to monitor risks. Risk management policies and systems are reviewed regularly to reflect changes in market conditions and the Company''s activities.
The key risks and mitigating actions are also placed before the Audit Committee of the Company.
The Company has exposure to the following risks arising from financial instruments:
A) Credit risk;
B) Liquidity risk;
C) Market risk; and
D) Interest rate risk.
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. Credit risk arises primarily form financial assets such as trade receivables, balances with banks, loans and other receivables.
Customer credit is managed as per the Company''s established policies, procedures and control relating to customer credit risk management. Trade receivables are non-interest bearing and in respect of local customers, the same is generally upto 90 days credit term. In respect of export customers, where the sales are on credit terms, the same is upto 180 days. Outstanding customer receivables are regularly monitored.
An impairment analysis is performed at each reporting date on an individual basis for major clients. In addition, a large number of minor receivables are grouped into homogenous groups and assessed for impairment collectively. The Company has taken dealer deposits from most of it''s dealers, which is considered as collateral and the same is considered in determination of expected credit loss, where applicable. The Company has no concentration of credit risk as the customer base is widely distributed both economically and geographically.
The Company measures the expected credit loss (''ECL'') of trade receivables based on historical trend, industry practices and the business environment in which the entity operates. The Company has applied ECL model for recognising the allowance for doubtful debts. The Company has used a practical expedient by computing ECL for trade receivables based on a simplified approach. The Company uses a provision matrix to determine impairment loss allowance on portfolio of its trade receivables. The provision matrix is based on its historically observed default rates over the expected life of the trade receivables and is adjusted for forward looking estimates.
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will encounter difficulty in meeting the obligations associated with its financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset.
Liquidity risk is managed by the Company through effective fund management. The Company''s principal sources of liquidity are cash and cash equivalents, borrowings and the cash flow that is generated from operations. The Company believes that current cash and cash equivalents and cash flow that is generated from operations are sufficient to meet requirements. Accordingly, liquidity risk is perceived to be low.
The following are the remaining contractual maturities of financial liabilities at the Balance-sheet date. Amounts disclosed are the contractual un-discounted cash flows.
Market Risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. It comprises of the following three types of risk: currency risk, interest rate risk and price risk.
The Company has exposure arising out of export sales to countries outside India, imports from outside India and few other expenditure incurred outside India. The Company is therefore, exposed to foreign currency risk principally arising out of foreign currency movement against the Indian currency.
The Company evaluates exchange rate exposure arising from foreign currency transactions and puts in place a Financial Risk Management Policy to identify the most effective and efficient ways of managing the currency risks. Foreign currency exchange rate exposure is also partly balanced by purchasing of goods in the respective currencies.
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in prevailing market interest rates. The Company''s exposure to the risk due to changes in interest rates relates primarily to the Company''s short-term and long-term borrowings with floating interest rates. The Company constantly monitors the credit markets and revisits its financing strategies to achieve an optimal maturity profile and financing cost.
The Company''s investments in term deposits with banks and interest bearing loan to employees are at fixed interest rates and therefore do not expose the Company to significant interest rates risk.
The Contract liability outstanding at the beginning of the year has been recognised as revenue during the year ended March 31, 2024.
vi) Trade receivables are non-interest bearing. Where sales is on credit, the same is generally for a period upto 90 days and 180 days for local sales and export sales respectively. As at March 31, 2024 E 13.78 Lakh (March 31, 2023: E 22.45 Lakh) was recognised as provision for expected credit losses qua the trade receivables. Credit limits are established for all customers based on internal rating criteria. Outstanding customer receivables are monitored regularly.
Disclosure of payable to vendors as defined under the MSMED Act is based on the information available with the Company regarding the status of registration of such vendors under the said Act, as per the intimation received till the Balance sheet date.
The Company generally pays its vendors within the credit period, which is generally of 45 days. In case of delays beyond this period, no interest is provided since the vendors have not claimed any such interest. However, if any such claim is made, the same would be accounted in the year of payment. According to the Company, the amount of such claim will not be material. The statutory auditors have relied on the Company''s representation.
The title deeds of all the immovable properties (other than properties where the Company is the lessee and the lease agreements are duly executed in favour of the lessee), as disclosed in note 3 to the financial statements, are held in the name of the Company. The Company has not revalued its property, plant and equipment (including right-of-use assets) or intangible assets or both during the current or previous year.

A provision is recognized when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre-tax rate that reflects, when appropriate, the risks specific to the liability. When discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognized as a finance cost. In other cases the same 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.
A contingent liability is a possible obligation that arises from past events whose existence will be confirmed by the occurrence or
non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of the Company or a present obligation where it is not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation or the amount of the obligation cannot be measured with sufficient reliability. The Company does not recognize a contingent liability but discloses its existence in the financial statements unless the possibility of outflow of economic resources is considered remote.
Contingent assets are not recognised in the financial statements.
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.
For the purpose of calculating diluted earnings per share, the net profit or loss for the period attributable to equity shareholders and the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period are adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potential equity shares.
Cash flows statement is prepared 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 operating cash receipts or payments and item of income or expenses associated with investing or financing cash flows. The cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities of the Company are segregated based on the available information.
Final dividend on shares are recorded as a liability on the date of approval by the shareholders and interim dividends are recorded as a liability on the date of declaration by the Company''s Board of Directors.
For the purpose of presentation in the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand and at bank, cheques/drafts on hand, bank overdraft, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.

B) Financial Instruments-Accounting Classifications and Fair value measurements (Ind AS 107)
3.. Financial risk management objectives (Ind AS 107)
The Company''s Board of Directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the Company''s risk management framework.
The Company''s risk management policies are established to identify and analyse the risks faced by the Company, to set appropriate risk limits and controls and to monitor risks. Risk management policies and systems are reviewed regularly to reflect changes in market conditions and the Company''s activities.
The key risks and mitigating actions are also placed before the Audit Committee of the Company.
The Company has exposure to the following risks arising from financial instruments:
A) Credit risk;
B) Liquidity risk; and
C) Market risk;
A) Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. Credit risk arises primarily form financial assets such as trade receivables, balances with banks, loans and other receivables.
Trade and other receivables
Customer credit is managed as per the Company''s established policies, procedures and control relating to customer credit risk management. Trade receivables are non-interest bearing and are generally on 0 to 90 days credit term. Outstanding customer receivables are regularly monitored.
An impairment analysis is performed at each reporting date on an individual basis for major clients. In addition, a large number of minor receivables are grouped into homogenous groups and assessed for impairment collectively. The Company does not hold collateral as security. The Company has no concentration of credit risk as the customer base is widely distributed both economically and geographically.
The Company measures the expected credit loss of trade receivables based on historical trend, industry practices and the business environment in which the entity operates. The Company has applied expected credit loss (ECL) model for recognizing the allowance for doubtful debts. The Company has used a practical expedient by computing the expected credit allowance for trade receivables based on a simplified approach. The Company uses a provision matrix to determine impairment loss allowance on portfolio of its trade receivables. The provision matrix is based on its historically observed default rates over the expected life of the trade receivables and is adjusted for forward looking estimates. No ECL is required to be provided as the financial instrument has low credit risk of default. Loss rates are based on actual credit loss experience and past trends.
B) Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will encounter difficulty in meeting the obligations associated with its financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset.
Liquidity risk is managed by Company through effective fund management. The Company''s principal sources of liquidity are cash and cash equivalents and the cash flow that is generated from operations. The Company believes that current cash and cash equivalents and cash flow that is generated from operations is sufficient to meet requirements. Accordingly, liquidity risk is perceived to be low.
The following are the remaining contractual maturities of financial liabilities at the reporting date. Amounts disclosed are the contractual un-discounted cash flows.
C) Market risk
Market Risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. Market risk comprises three types of risk: currency risk, interest rate risk and price risk.
i) Currency Risk
The Company is exposed to currency risk on account of its operating activities. The functional currency of the Company is Indian Rupee. Company''s exposure is in U.S. dollars (USD) and Euros. The USD exchange rate has changed substantially in recent periods and may continue to fluctuate substantially in the future. The Company has put in place a Financial Risk Management Policy to Identify the most effective and efficient ways of managing the currency risks.
Sensitivity analysis
The following table details the Company''s sensitivity to a 5% increase and decrease in the Rupee against the relevant foreign currencies. 5% is the sensitivity rate used when reporting foreign currency risk internally to key management personnel and represents management''s assessment of the reasonably possible change in foreign exchange rates. This is mainly attributable to the net exposure outstanding on receivables or payables in the Company at the end of the reporting period. The sensitivity analysis includes only outstanding foreign currency denominated monetary items and adjusts their translation at the period end for a 5% charge in foreign currency rate. This analysis assumes that all other variables, in particular interest rates, remain constant and ignores any impact of forecast sales and purchases. In cases where the related foreign exchange fluctuation is capitalized to fixed assets or recognized directly in reserves, the impact indicated below may affect the Company''s income statement over the remaining life of the related fixed assets or the remaining tenure of the borrowing, respectively.
4. Segment Information
As per the requirements of para 4 of Ind AS 108 -Operating Segments, segment information has been provided under the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
5. Details of loans given and investment made covered under section 186(4) of the Act:
6.Transition to Ind AS
These are the Company''s first financial statements prepared in accordance with Ind AS. The Company has adopted all the Ind AS and the adoption was carried out in accordance with Ind AS 101 - First time adoption of Indian Accounting Standards. The transition was carried out from Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in India (Indian GAAP) as prescribed under Section 133 of the Act, read with Rule 7 of the Companies (Accounts) Rules, 2014, which was the ''Previous GAAP''.
The Significant Accounting Policies set out in Note No. 2 have been applied in preparing the financial statements for the year ended 31st March 2018, 31st March 2017 and the opening balance sheet as on the date of transition i.e. 1st April 2016.
In preparing its Ind AS Balance Sheet as at 1st April 2016 and in presenting the comparative information for the year ended 31st March 2017, the Company has adjusted amounts previously reported in the financial statements prepared in accordance with Previous GAAP. This note explains the principal adjustments made by the Company in restating its financial statements prepared in accordance with Previous GAAP, and how the transition from Previous GAAP to Ind AS has affected the Company''s financial position, financial performance and cash flows.
A) Explanation of transition to Ind AS
In preparing the financial statements, the Company has applied the below mentioned optional exemptions and mandatory exceptions.
I. Optional Exemptions availed
(i) Deemed cost for property, plant and equipment
The Company has elected to measure all its property, plant and equipment at the Previous GAAP carrying amount as its deemed cost on the date of transition to Ind AS.
(ii) Investments in Subsidiaries
The Company has elected to measure its investments in subsidiaries at the Previous GAAP carrying amount as its deemed cost on the date of transition to Ind AS.
II. Mandatory Exceptions
(i) Estimates
On assessment of the estimates made under the Previous GAAP financial statements, the Company has concluded that there is no necessity to revise the estimates under Ind AS, as there
is no objective evidence of an error in those estimates. However, estimates that were required under Ind AS but not required under Previous GAAP are made by the Company for the relevant reporting dates reflecting conditions existing as at that date.
(ii) Derecognition of financial assets and financial liabilities
Derecognition of financial assets and liabilities as required by Ind AS 109 is applied prospectively i.e. after the transition date.
(iii) Classification and measurement of financial assets
Ind AS 101 requires an entity to assess classification of financial assets on the basis of facts and circumstances existing as on the date of transition. Further, the standard permits measurement of financial assets accounted at amortized cost based on facts and circumstances existing at the date of transition if retrospective application is impracticable.
Accordingly, the Company has determined the classification of financial assets based on facts and circumstances that exist on the date of transition. Measurement of financial assets accounted at amortized cost has been done retrospectively except where the same is impracticable.
(i) Deferred Tax
Under previous GAAP, deferred tax accounting was done using the income statement approach, which focuses on differences between taxable profits and accounting profits for the period.
Under Ind AS, accounting of deferred taxes is done using the Balance sheet approach, which focuses on temporary differences between the carrying amount of an asset or liability in the balance sheet and its tax base.
(ii) Excise Duty
Under previous GAAP, revenue from sale of products was presented net of Excise Duty under revenue from operations.
Under Ind AS, revenue from sale of products includes excise duty. The corresponding excise duty expense is presented under other expenses in the statement of profit and loss. The change does not affect the total equity as at 1st April, 2016 and 31st March, 2017, profit before tax or total profit for the year ended 31st March, 2017.
(iii) Remeasurement of Defined benefits liabilities
Under previous GAAP the company recognized remeasurement of defined benefits plans in statement of profit and loss . Under Ind AS, remeasurement of defined benefits plans are recognized in Other Comprehensive Income.
(iv) Other Comprehensive Income
Under Ind AS, all items of income and expense recognized in a period should be included in statement of profit and loss for the period, unless a standard requires or permits otherwise. Items of income and expense that are not recognized in statement of profit and loss but are shown in the statement of profit and loss as ''other comprehensive income'' includes remeasurements of defined benefit plans. The concept of other comprehensive income did not exist under previous GAAP.
(v) The previous year I-GAAP figures have been reclassified/regrouped to make them comparable with Ind AS presentation.
7.In accordance with Ind AS 18 on âRevenueâ and Schedule III to the Companies Act, 2013, Sales for the previous year ended 31st March 2017 and for the period 1st April to 30 June 2017 were reported gross of Excise Duty and net of Value Added Tax (VAT)/Sales Tax. Excise Duty was reported as a separate expenses line item. Consequent to the introduction of Goods and Services Tax (GST) with effect from 1st July 2017, VAT/Sales Tax, Excise Duty etc. have been subsumed into GST and accordingly the same is not recognized as part of Sales as per the requirements of Ind AS 18. This has resulted in lower reported sales in the current year in comparison to the sales reported under the pre-GST structure of indirect taxes. With the change in structure of indirect taxes, expenses are also being reported net of taxes. Accordingly, Financial Statements for the year ended 31st March 2018 and in particular, Sales, absolute expenses, elements of Working Capital (Inventories, Trade payable, other current assets/current liabilities etc.) and ratios in percentage of sales, are thus not comparable with the figures of the previous year.
8. The figures of the previous year have been regrouped / reclassified wherever necessary. Figures in bracket are in respect of the previous year.
Mar 31, 2016

Note:
The Company has not received any information from it''s vendors regarding their status under Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises Development Act, 2006 and hence disclosures, if any, required under the said Act has not been made.
6) During financial year 2014-15, the Company had revised the estimated useful life of certain items of fixed assets in accordance with the useful life specified in Part C of Schedule II to the Act. As per the said Schedule, where the fixed asset have completed their useful lives, the carrying value (net of residual value) as at April 1, 2014 is to be charged to depreciation.

In addition, effective April 1, 2015, the Company has revised the estimated useful life of certain items of plant and machinery based on the technical advice received. These have resulted in higher depreciation of '' 7,27,844/- in FY 2015-16.
The security deposit paid includes sum of '' 70,02,068 (Previous year '' 70,02,068) paid by way of a Rent deposit to a firm wherein some of the directors are partners.
8. The Company''s pending litigations comprise of claims against the Company by the parties and proceedings pending with the Revenue authorities. The Company has reviewed all its pending litigations and proceedings and has adequately provided for, where provisions are required and disclosed the contingent liabilities where applicable, in its financial statements. The Company does not expect the outcome of these proceedings to have any materially adverse effect on its financial results. For details on contingent liabilities (Refer Note 27.1 above)
9. The Current Assets and Loans and Advances are approximately of the value stated, if realized in the ordinary course of business.
10. The Company is in the process of reconciling balances of some parties. The Company believes that on completion of the said process, there would be no material adjustments necessary in the accounts.
11.

The Company is in the process of re-filing applications to the Central Government for review / reconsideration of its Orders, based on the additional inputs not considered by the Central Government. Till the matter is finally resolved, the Company has not given effect to the Orders of the Central Government in its books of accounts and the concerned directors have agreed to hold the excess amount of remuneration received by them in trust.

13. The Company has made aggregate investments of '' 9,96,576/- (Previous year '' 9,96,576/-) in the equity shares of two of its wholly owned subsidiaries (See Note 12). On account of losses suffered by the said two companies in the past few years, their entire net worth have been eroded. Considering the strategic and long term nature of the investments and the business plans of the investee companies, according to the Company, the decline in the value of the investments is of temporary in nature. Hence, it is not considered necessary to provide for any losses in the value of the investments.
14. Accounting Standard (AS) 17 - Segment Reporting
