Accounting Policies of Future Lifestyle Fashions Ltd. Company

Mar 31, 2019

1.1 Statement of Compliances with Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS)

The financial statements of the Company comply in all material aspects with Ind AS notified under section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013, [Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 (as amended)] and other applicable laws.

1.2 Standard issued but not effective

On March 30, 2019, the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) notified Ind AS 116, “Leases” as part of the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS)) Amendment Rules, 2019. Ind AS 116 replaces existing standard on leases i.e. Ind AS 17, “Leases” with effect from accounting periods beginning on or after April 01, 2019. Ind AS 116 sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases. It eliminates the classification of leases as either finance leases or operating leases for a lessee as required by Ind AS 17, “Leases” introducing a single on-balance sheet accounting model that will result in creation of Right of use asset and lease liability for all the leases subject to short term, low value leases and transition relaxations.

1.3 Basis of Preparation and Presentation

These financial statements are prepared in accordance with Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS) under the historical cost convention on the accrual basis except for certain financial instruments which are measured at fair values.

1.4 Business Combination

Acquisitions of businesses are accounted for using the acquisition method. The consideration transferred in a business combination is measured at fair value, which is calculated as the sum of the acquisition date fair values of the assets transferred by the Company, liabilities incurred by the Company to the former owners of the acquiree and the equity interests issued by the Company in exchange of control of the business. Acquisition-related costs are generally recognised in statement of profit and loss as incurred.

At the acquisition date, the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed are recognised at their fair value, except deferred tax assets or liabilities. Goodwill is measured as the excess of the sum of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interests in the acquiree over the net of the acquisition date amounts of the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed.

1.5 Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and impairment, if any Costs comprises of purchase price and any attributable cost of bringing the assets to its working condition for its intended use. The cost of property, plant and equipment acquired in a business combination is recorded at fair value on the date of acquisition.

An item of property, plant and equipment and any significant part initially recognised is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of the asset is included in the Statement of Profit or Loss when the asset is derecognised.

Depreciation on property, plant and equipment has been provided on Straight Line Method over their useful lives. Estimated useful lives of the assets are as below:

* Based on technical evaluation, the management believes that the useful lives as given above best represent the period over which management expects to use these assets. Hence, the useful lives for these assets is different from the useful lives as prescribed under Part C of Schedule II of the Companies Act 2013.

The residual values, estimated useful lives and methods of depreciation are reviewed at the end of each reporting period and the effect of any changes in estimate are accounted for prospectively,

1.6 Intangible Assets

Intangible Assets are carried at acquisition cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. Acquisition cost includes Information system related Costs as well as costs incurred for enhancement and improvements. Amortisation is recognised on a straight line basis over their estimated useful lives. The estimated useful life and amortisation method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period and the effect of any changes in estimates are accounted for prospectively, Estimated useful lives of the Intangible assets are as follows:

1.7 Impairment of non-financial assets (including investment in subsidiary, associate and joint venture)

At the end of each reporting period, the Company reviews the carrying amounts of its non-financial assets (including investment in subsidiary, associate and joint venture) to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). When it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Company estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.

Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs of disposal and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset for which the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted.

If the recoverable amount of an asset (or cash-generating unit) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset (or cash-generating unit) is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised immediately in statement of profit and loss.

1.8 Revenue recognition

Revenue is measured based on the consideration specified in a contract with a customer and excludes amounts collected on behalf of third parties including taxes. Revenue is recognised upon transfer of control of promised products or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to receive in exchange for those products or services.

Effective April 01, 2018, the Company adopted Ind AS 115 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” using the cumulative catch-up transition method, applied to contracts that were not completed as of April 01, 2018. In accordance with the cumulative catch-up transition method, the comparatives have not been retrospectively adjusted. The effect on adoption of Ind AS 115 was insignificant.

Sale of Goods

The Company deals in fashion products including apparel, footwear and accessories to both the large format stores and directly to customers through its own retail outlets.

For sales of goods to retail customers, revenue is recognised when control of the goods has transferred, being at the point the customer purchases the goods at the retail outlet. Payment of the transaction price is due immediately at the point the customer purchases the goods.

For sales of fashion products, revenue is recognised when control of the goods has transferred, being when the goods have been shipped to specific location (delivery). Following delivery, the customer has full discretion over the manner of distribution and price to sell the goods, has the primary responsibility when onselling the goods and bears the risks of obsolescence and loss in relation to the goods. A receivable is recognised by the Company when the goods are delivered as this represents the point in time at which the right to consideration becomes unconditional, as only the passage of time is required before payment is due.

Rendering of services

Revenue from a contract to provide services is recognised as they are rendered based on arrangements with the customers.

Interest income

Interest income from a financial asset is recognised when it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Company and the amount of income can be measured reliably. Interest income is accrued on a time basis, by reference to the principal outstanding and at the effective interest rate applicable, which is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset to that assets net carrying amount on initial recognition.

1.9 Leases

Leases where significant portion of risk and reward of ownership are retained by the lessor, are classified as operating leases and lease payments are recognised as an expense in statement of profit and loss as per the terms of agreement which is representative of the time pattern of the user’s benefit.

Finance leases that transfer substantially all of the risks and benefits incidental to ownership of the leased item, are capitalised at commencement of the lease at the fair value of the leased property or, if lower, at the present value of the minimum lease payments. Lease payments are apportioned between finance charges and a reduction in the lease liability so as to achieve a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of liability. Finance charges are recognised in finance cost in the statement of profit and loss.

1.10 Taxation Current tax

The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from ‘profit before tax’ as reported in the statement of profit and loss because of items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and items that are never taxable or deductible. The Company’s current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted by the end of the reporting period.

Deferred tax

Deferred tax is recognised on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit.

Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are generally recognised for all deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against those deductible temporary differences which can be utilised. Such deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognised if the temporary difference rises from the initial recognition (other than in a business combination) of assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the taxable profit nor the accounting profit. In addition, deferred tax liabilities are not recognised if the temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of goodwill.

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets are reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered. Deferred tax liabilities and assets are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in which the liability is settled or the asset realised, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Company expects, at the end of the reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.

Current and deferred tax for the year

Current and deferred tax are recognised in statement of profit and loss, except when they relate to items that are recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case, the current and deferred tax are also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity respectively. Where current tax or deferred tax arises from the initial accounting for a business combination, the tax effect is included in the accounting for the business combination.

1.11 Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit/loss attributable to the owners of the Company by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the financial year.

Diluted earnings per share adjusts the figure used in determination of basic earnings per share to take into account the after income tax effect of interest and other financing costs associated with dilutive potential equity shares, and the weighted average number of additional equity share that would have been outstanding assuming the conversion of all dilutive potential equity shares.

1.12 Borrowing costs

Borrowing costs that is directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets, which are assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use or sale, are added to the cost of those assets, until such time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale.

All other borrowing costs are recognised in the statement of profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred.

1.13 Employee benefits

Short term employee benefits

All employee benefits payable wholly within twelve months from reporting date are classified as short term employee benefits. Benefits such as salaries, wages, short-term compensated absences, performance incentives and the expected cost of bonus etc. are recognised as an expense at the undiscounted amount in statement of profit and loss for the period in which the related service is rendered.

Post-employment defined contribution benefits

Payment to defined contribution plans such as provident fund, employee state insurance etc. are recognised as expense when employees have rendered services entitling them to such contributions. Company has no further payment obligations once the contributions have been paid.

Post-employment defined benefit benefits

Cost of post-employment benefit plans such as gratuity are recognised as an expense in the statement of profit and loss for the period in which the employee has rendered services. The expense is recognised at the present value of the amounts payable determined using projected unit credit method, with actuarial valuation techniques at the end of each annual reporting period. Service cost (including current service cost, past service cost) and interest expense are recognised in the statement of profit and loss. Gains and losses through re-measurements of the net defined benefit liability are recognised in other comprehensive income. The effect of any plan amendments are recognised in statement of profit and loss,

Other long term employee benefits

Liabilities recognised in respect of other long-term employee benefits are measured at the present value of the estimated future cash outflows expected to be made by the Company in respect of services provided by employees up to the reporting date. Cost of other long term benefits are determined using projected unit credit method, with actuarial valuation techniques at the end of each annual reporting period and the cost (including re-measurement) is recognised in statement of profit and loss,

1.14 Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Costs of inventories are determined on weighted average basis. Cost of inventories comprise of cost of purchase, cost of conversion and other related cost incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition.

1.15 Foreign currencies

Indian rupees (Rs.) is the functional currency of the Company In preparing these financial statements, transactions in currencies other than the functional currency (foreign currencies) are recognised at the rates of exchange prevailing at the dates of the transactions. At the end of each reporting period, monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing at that date. Non-monetary items carried at fair value that are denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing at the date when the fair value was determined. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are not retranslated. Exchange differences on monetary items are recognised in statement of profit and loss in the period in which they arise except for exchange differences which are regarded as an adjustment to interest cost as per policy on borrowing cost,

1.16 Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets

A provision is recognised when the Company has a present obligation as a result of past event and it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation, in respect of which a reliable estimate can be made. These are reviewed at each balance sheet date and adjusted to reflect the current best estimates,

Contingent Liabilities are disclosed when there is a possible obligation arising from past events, the existence of which will be confirmed only 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 that arises from past events where it is either not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation or a reliable estimate of the amount cannot be made. Contingent assets are neither recognised nor disclosed in the financial statements,

1.17 Financial instruments

Classification as financial liability or equity

Debt and equity instruments issued by the Company are classified as either financial liabilities or as equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangements and the definitions of a financial liability and an equity instrument,

Equity instruments

An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of an entity after deducting all of its liabilities. Equity instruments issued by the Company are recognised at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs.

Financial assets and financial liabilities- Initial recognition

Financial instruments comprise of financial assets and financial liabilities. Financial assets primarily comprise of investments, loans, deposits, trade receivables and cash and bank balances. Financial liabilities primarily comprise of borrowings, trade and other payables and financial guarantee contracts.

Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets/ issue of financial liabilities are added to the fair value of the financial assets/ subtracted from fair value of financial liabilities on initial recognition, except for financial asset/ liability is subsequently measured at fair value through profit or loss,

Subsequent measurement

Financial assets and financial liabilities at amortised cost

After initial recognition all financial assets (other than investment in equity instruments and derivative instruments) are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. All financial liabilities (other than derivative liabilities), subsequently after initial recognition, are measured at amortised cost using effective interest method. The Company has not designated any financial asset or financial liability as fair value through profit or loss (“FVTPL”).

Financial assets and financial liabilities at FVTPL

All derivative assets and derivative liabilities are always measured at FVTPL with fair value changes is being recognised in statement of profit and loss.

Investment in equity instruments either at FVTPL or FVTOCI

Investment in equity instruments are measured at FVTPL with fair value changes is being recognised in statement of profit and loss. However, on initial recognition, the Company can make an irrevocable election (on an instrument-by-instrument basis) to present the subsequent changes in fair value in other comprehensive income pertaining to investments in equity instruments. This election is not permitted if the equity investment is held for trading. These elected investments are initially measured at fair value plus transaction costs. Subsequently, they are measured at fair value with gains and losses arising from changes in fair value recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in the ‘Reserve for equity instruments through other comprehensive income.’ The cumulative gain or loss is not reclassified to profit or loss on disposal of the investments.

Financial guarantee obligation

A financial guarantee contract is a contract that requires the issuer to make specified payments to reimburse the holder for a loss it incurs because a specified debtor fails to make payments when due in accordance with the terms of a debt instrument.

After initial recognition of financial guarantee obligation at fair value, the Company subsequently measured it at the higher of:

- Amount of loss determined in accordance with impairment requirement under Ind AS 109 (see policy on impairment of financial asset); and

- The amount initially recognised less, when appropriate, the cumulative income recognised.

Impairment of financial asset

The Company applies the expected credit loss model for recognising impairment loss on financial assets measured at amortised cost, trade receivables and other contractual rights to receive cash or other financial asset, and financial guarantees not designated as at FVTPL.

Expected credit losses are the weighted average of credit losses with the respective risks of default occurring as the weights. Credit loss is the difference between all contractual cash flows that are due to the Company in accordance with the contract and all the cash flows that the Company expects to receive (i.e. all cash shortfalls), discounted at the original effective interest rate.

The Company measures the loss allowance for a financial instrument at an amount equal to the lifetime expected credit losses if the credit risk on that financial asset has increased significantly since initial recognition. If the credit risk on a financial asset has not increased significantly since initial recognition, the Company measures the loss allowance for that financial instrument at an amount equal to 12-month expected credit losses.

For trade receivables, the Company measures the loss allowance at an amount equal to lifetime expected credit losses.

Derecognition of financial asset

The Company derecognises a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire, or when it transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the asset to another party

1.18 Share-based payment arrangement

Equity-settled share-based payments to employees are measured at the fair value of the equity instruments/ option at the grant date.

The fair value determined at the grant date of the equity settled share-based payments is expensed on a straight line basis over the vesting period, based on the Company’s estimate of equity instruments that will eventually vest, with a corresponding increase in equity. At the end of each reporting period, the Company revises its estimate of the number of equity instruments expected to vest. The impact of the revision of the original estimates, if any, is recognised in statement of profit and loss such that the cumulative expense reflects the revised estimate, with a corresponding adjustment to the share options outstanding reserve.

1.19 Operating segment

The management views the Company’s operation as a single segment engaged in business of Branding, Processing, Selling and Distribution of ‘Fashion Products.’ Hence there is no separate reportable segment under Ind AS 108 ‘Operating segment.’

1.20 Key sources of estimation uncertainty and critical accounting judgements

In the course of applying the accounting policies, the Company is required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future period, if the revision affects current and future periods.

Key sources of estimation uncertainty Useful lives of property, plant and equipment

Management reviews the useful lives of property, plant and equipment at least once a year. Such lives are dependent upon an assessment of both the technical lives of the assets and also their likely economic lives based on various internal and external factors including relative efficiency and operating costs. Accordingly, depreciable lives are reviewed annually using the best information available to the Management.

Impairment of property, plant and equipment, investment in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates

Determining whether the assets are impaired requires an estimate in the value in use of cash generating units. It requires to estimate the future cash flows expected to arise from the cash generating units and a suitable discount rate in order to calculate present value. When the actual cash flows are less than expected, a material impairment loss may arise.

Provisions, liabilities and contingencies

The timing of recognition of provision requires application of judgement to existing facts and circumstances which may be subject to change

Fair value measurements

Some of the Company’s assets and liabilities are measured at fair value for financial reporting purposes. 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 qualified valuers to perform the valuation.

The management works closely with the qualified external valuers to establish the appropriate valuation techniques and inputs to the model. A degree of estimate is required in establishing fair values.

1.21 Application of new and revised standards Ind AS 116- Leases:

On March 30, 2019, the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) notified Ind AS 116, ‘Leases’ as part of the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS)) Amendment Rules, 2019. Ind AS 116 replaces existing standard on leases i.e. Ind AS 17, Leases with effect from accounting periods beginning on or after April 01, 2019. It eliminates the classification of leases as either finance leases or operating leases for a lessee as required by Ind AS 17. Ind AS 116 introduces a single lessee accounting model and requires a lessee to recognise assets and liabilities for all leases with a term of more than 12 months, unless the underlying asset is of low value. A lessee is required to recognise a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying leased asset and a lease liability representing its obligation to make lease payments. The standard also requires enhanced disclosures requirements for lessees. Requirements with regard to lessor accounting are substantially similar to accounting requirements contained in Ind AS 17. Accordingly, a lessor will continue to classify its leases as operating leases or finance leases, and to account for those two types of leases differently.

The effective date for adoption of Ind AS 116 is annual periods beginning on or after April 01, 2019. The standard permits two possible methods of transition:

Full retrospective - Retrospectively to each prior period presented applying Ind AS 8 Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors.

Modified retrospective - Retrospectively, with the cumulative effect of initially applying the Standard recognised at the date of initial application.

Under modified retrospective approach, the lessee records the lease liability as the present value of the remaining lease payments, discounted at the incremental borrowing rate and the right of use asset either as:

Its carrying amount as if the standard had been applied since the commencement date, but discounted at lessee’s incremental borrowing rate at the date of initial application, or

An amount equal to the lease liability, adjusted by the amount of any prepaid or accrued lease payments related to that lease recognised under Ind AS 17 immediately before the date of initial application.

The Company’s operating leases mainly relate to store Leases and Office Premises which are on lease terms ranging from 5 to 18 years. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact, this standard will have on its financial statements.

2.2 Standard issued but not effective

I nd AS 115 ''Revenue from Contracts with Customers'' has been notified by the Ministry of Corporate Affairs as on March 28, 2018. This standard prescribes one underlying principle for revenue recognition i.e. transfer of control over goods/services. Ind 115 will supersede Ind AS 11 ''Construction Contracts'' and Ind AS 18, ''Revenue'' and is effective for annual periods beginning on or after April 01, 2018. Management consider that the amendment does not have significant impact on the financial statements.

2.3 Basis of Preparation and Presentation

These financial statements are prepared in accordance with Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS) under the historical cost convention on the accrual basis except for certain financial instruments which are measured at fair values.

I n accordance with Ind AS 101 on ''First time adoption of Indian Accounting Standards'', the Company''s first Ind AS financial statements including, three balance sheets, namely, the opening balance sheets as at April 01, 2016 and balance sheet as at March 31, 2017 and 2018 and two statements each of profit and loss, cash flows and changes in equity for the year ended March 31, 2017 and 2018 together with related notes. The same accounting policies have been used for all periods presented, except where the Company has made use of exceptions or exemptions allowed under Ind AS 101 in the preparation of the opening Ind AS balance sheet. The balance sheets, statements of profit and loss, statements of cash flows and statement of changes in equity of the prior years presented have been recast in accordance with Ind AS.

2.4 Business Combination

Acquisitions of businesses are accounted for using the acquisition method. The consideration transferred in a business combination is measured at fair value, which is calculated as the sum of the acquisition-date fair values of the assets transferred by the Company, liabilities incurred by the Company to the former owners of the acquiree and the equity interests issued by the Company in exchange of control of the business. Acquisition-related costs are generally recognized in statement of profit and loss as incurred.

At the acquisition date, the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed are recognized at their fair value, except deferred tax assets or liabilities. Goodwill is measured as the excess of the sum of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interests in the acquire over the net of the acquisition-date amounts of the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed.

2.5 Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and impairment, if any. Costs comprises purchase price and any attributable cost of bringing the assets to its working condition for its intended use. The cost of property, plant and equipment acquired in a business combination is recorded at fair value on the date of acquisition.

An item of property, plant and equipment and any significant part initially recognized is derecognized upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of the asset is included in the statement of profit and loss when the asset is derecognized.

The Company has measured all of its property, plant and equipment at their fair value as at its transition date to Ind AS i.e. April 01, 2016 and use these fair value as deemed cost.

Freehold land is not depreciated. Depreciation on other property, plant and equipment has been provided on Straight Line Method over their useful lives. Estimated useful lives of the assets are as *Based on technical evaluation, the management believes that the useful lives as given above best represent the period over which management expects to use these assets. Hence, the useful lives for these assets is different from the useful lives as prescribed under Part C of Schedule II of the Companies Act 2013

The residual values, estimated useful lives and methods of depreciation are reviewed at the end of each reporting period and the effect of any changes in estimate is accounted for prospectively.

2.6 Intangible Assets

Intangible Assets are carried at acquisition cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses, if any. Amortization is recognized on a straight line basis over their estimated useful lives. The estimated useful life and amortization method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period and the effect of any changes in estimate is accounted for prospectively.

The Company has elected to continue with carrying value of all of its Intangible Assets recognized as of April 01, 2016 (transition date) measured as per the previous GAAP and use that carrying value as its deemed cost as of the transition date.

2.7 Impairment of non-financial assets (including investment in subsidiary, associate and joint venture)

At the end of each reporting period, the Company reviews the carrying amounts of its non-financial assets (including investment in subsidiary associates and joint venture) to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). When it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Company estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.

Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs of disposal and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset for which the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted.

If the recoverable amount of an asset (or cash-generating unit) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset (or cash-generating unit) is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognized immediately in statement of profit and loss.

2.8 Revenue recognition

Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable. Revenue is reduced for estimated customer returns, rebates and similar allowances.

Sale of goods

Revenue from sale of goods is recognized, when significant risk and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the buyer and no significant uncertainty exists regarding the amount of consideration that will be derived from the sale of goods.

Amount disclosed as revenue are inclusive of excise duty and net of trade allowances, rebates, returns and value added tax/sales tax/Goods and Services tax.

Rendering of services

Revenue from a contract to provide services is recognized as they are rendered based on arrangements with the customers.

Dividend and Interest income

Dividend income from investments is recognized when the Company''s right to receive payment has been established (provided that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the shareholders and the amount of income can be measured reliably).

Interest income from a financial asset is recognized when it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Company and the amount of income can be measured reliably. Interest income is accrued on a time basis, by reference to the principal outstanding and at the effective interest rate applicable, which is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset to that asset''s net carrying amount on initial recognition.

2.9 Leases

Leases where significant portion of risk and reward of ownership are retained by the lesser, are classified as operating leases and lease payments are recognized as an expense statement of profit and loss as per the terms of agreement which is representative of the time pattern of the user''s benefit.

Finance leases that transfer substantially all of the risks and benefits incidental to ownership of the leased item, are capitalized at commencement of the lease at the fair value of the leased property or, if lower, at the present value of the minimum lease payments. Lease payments are apportioned between finance charges and a reduction in the lease liability so as to achieve a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of liability. Finance charges are recognized in finance cost in the statement of profit and loss.

2.10 Taxation

Current tax

The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from ''Profit before tax'' as reported in the statement of profit and loss because of items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and items that are never taxable or deductible. The Company''s current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted by the end of the reporting period.

Deferred tax

Deferred tax is recognized on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit.

Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognized for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are generally recognized for all deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against those deductible temporary differences which can be utilized. Such deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognized if the temporary difference rises from the initial recognition (other than in a business combination) of assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the taxable profit nor the accounting profit. In addition, deferred tax liabilities are not recognized if the temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of goodwill.

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered. Deferred tax liabilities and assets 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 measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Company expects, at the end of the reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.

Current and Deferred tax for the year

Current and deferred tax are recognized in statement of profit and loss, except when they relate to items that are recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity in which case, the current and deferred tax are also recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity respectively. Where current tax or deferred tax arises from the initial accounting for a business combination, the tax effect is included in the accounting for the business combination.

2.11 Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit/ loss attributable to the owners of the Company by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the financial year.

Diluted earnings per share adjusts the figure used in determination of basic earnings per share to take into account the after income tax effect of interest and other financing costs associated with dilutive potential equity shares, and the weighted average number of additional equity shares that would have been outstanding assuming the conversion of all dilutive potential equity shares.

2.12 Borrowing costs

Borrowing costs that is directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets, which are assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use or sale, are added to the cost of those assets, until such time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale.

All other borrowing costs are recognized in the statement of profit and loss in the period in which they are incurred.

2.13 Employee benefits

Short-term employee benefits

All employee benefits payable wholly within twelve months from reporting date are classified as short term employee benefits. Benefits such as salaries, wages, short-term compensated absences, performance incentives and the expected cost of bonus etc. are recognized as an expense at the undiscounted amount in statement of profit and loss for the period in which the related service is rendered.

Post-employment defined contribution benefits

Payment to defined contribution plans such as provident fund, employee state insurance etc. are recognized as expense when employees have rendered services entitling them to such contributions. Company has no further payment obligations once the contributions have been paid.

Post-employment defined benefit benefits

Cost of post-employment benefit plans such as gratuity are recognized as an expense in the statement of profit and loss for the period in which the employee has rendered services. The expense is recognized at the present value of the amounts payable determined using projected unit credit method, with actuarial valuation techniques at the end of each annual reporting period. Service cost (including current service cost, past service cost) and interest expense are recognized in the statement of profit and loss. Gains and losses through re-measurements of the net defined benefit liability are recognized in other comprehensive income. The effect of any plan amendments are recognized in statement of profit and loss.

Other long-term employee benefit

Liabilities recognized in respect of other long-term employee benefits are measured at the present value of the estimated future cash outflows expected to be made by the Company in respect of services provided by employees up to the reporting date. Cost of other long term benefits are determined using projected unit credit method, with actuarial valuation techniques at the end of each annual reporting period and the cost (including remeasurement) is recognized in statement of profit and loss.

2.14 Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Costs of inventories are determined on weighted average basis. Cost of inventories comprise of cost of purchase, cost of conversion and other related cost incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition.

2.15 Foreign currencies

Indian rupee ('') is the functional currency of the Company. In preparing these financial statements, transactions in currencies other than the functional currency (foreign currencies) are recognized at the rates of exchange prevailing at the dates of the transactions. At the end of each reporting period, monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing at that date. Non-monetary items carried at fair value that are denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing at the date when the fair value was determined. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are not retranslated. Exchange differences on monetary items are recognized in statement of profit and loss in the period in which they arise except for exchange differences which are regarded as an adjustment to interest cost as per policy on borrowing cost.

2.16 Provisions, contingent liability and contingent assets

A provision is recognized if as a result of a past event, the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation that can be reasonably estimated, and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation. Provisions are determined by discounting (when the effect of the time value of money is material) the expected future cash flows at a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability.

Contingent liability is a present obligation arising from past events, when it is not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation or it is probable but no reliable estimate is possible. Contingent liabilities are not recognized in financial statements however disclosed. Similarly contingent assets are not recognized however disclosed.

2.17 Investment in subsidiary, joint venture and associate

Investment in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates are shown at cost in accordance with Ind AS 27 ''Separate financial statements''. Where the carrying amount of an investment in greater than its estimated recoverable amount, it is written down immediately to its recoverable amount and the difference is recognized as impairment loss in the statement of profit and loss (refer policy on impairment of non-financial assets). On disposal of investment, the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount is charged or credited to the statement of profit and loss.

2.18 Financial instruments

Classification as financial liability or equity

Debt and equity instruments issued by the Company are classified as either financial liabilities or as equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangements and the definitions of a financial liability and an equity instrument

Equity instruments

An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of an entity after deducting all of its liabilities. Equity instruments issued by the Company are recognized at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs.

Financial assets and financial liabilities- Initial recognition

Financial instruments comprise of financial assets and financial liabilities. Financial assets primarily comprise of investments, loans, deposits, trade receivables and cash and bank balances. Financial liabilities primarily comprise of borrowings, trade and other payables and financial guarantee contracts.

Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets/ issue of financial liabilities are added to the fair value of the financial assets/ subtracted from fair value of financial liabilities on initial recognition, except for financial asset/ liability is subsequently measured at fair value through profit or loss.

Subsequent measurement

Financial assets and financial liabilities at amortized cost

After initial recognition all financial assets (other than investment in equity instruments and derivative instruments) are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. All financial liabilities (other than derivative liabilities), subsequently after initial recognition, are measured at amortized cost using effective interest method. The Company has not designated any financial asset or financial liability as fair value through profit or loss ("FVTPL").

Financial assets and financial liabilities at FVTPL

All derivative assets and derivative liabilities are always measured at FVTPL with fair value changes is being recognized in statement of profit and loss.

Investment in equity instruments either at FVTPL or FVTOCI

Investment in equity instruments are measured at FVTPL with fair value changes is being recognized in statement of profit and loss. However, on initial recognition, the Company can make an irrevocable election (on an instrument-by-instrument basis) to present the subsequent changes in fair value in other comprehensive income pertaining to investments in equity instruments. This election is not permitted if the equity investment is held for trading. These elected investments are initially measured at fair value plus transaction costs. Subsequently, they are measured at fair value with gains and losses arising from changes in fair value recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in the ''Reserve for equity instruments through other comprehensive income''. The cumulative gain or loss is not reclassified to profit or loss on disposal of the investments.

Financial guarantee obligation

A financial guarantee contract is a contract that requires the issuer to make specified payments to reimburse the holder for a loss it incurs because a specified debtor fails to make payments when due in accordance with the terms of a debt instrument.

After initial recognition of financial guarantee obligation at fair value, the Company subsequently measured it at the higher of:

- amount of loss determined in accordance with impairment requirement under Ind AS 109 (see policy on impairment of financial asset); and

- The amount initially recognized less, when appropriate, the cumulative income recognized.

Impairment of financial asset

The Company applies the expected credit loss model for recognising impairment loss on financial assets measured at amortised cost, trade receivables and other contractual rights to receive cash or other financial asset, and financial guarantees not designated as at FVTPL.

Expected credit losses are the weighted average of credit losses with the respective risks of default occurring as the weights. Credit loss is the difference between all contractual cash flows that are due to the Company in accordance with the contract and all the cash flows that the Company expects to receive (i.e. all cash shortfalls), discounted at the original effective interest rate.

The Company measures the loss allowance for a financial instrument at an amount equal to the lifetime expected credit losses if the credit risk on that financial asset has increased significantly since initial recognition. If the credit risk on a financial asset has not increased significantly since initial recognition, the Company measures the loss allowance for that financial instrument at an amount equal to 12-month expected credit losses.

For trade receivables, the Company measures the loss allowance at an amount equal to lifetime expected credit losses.

Derecognition of financial asset

The Company derecognizes a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire, or when it transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the asset to another party.

2.19 Share-based payment arrangement

Equity-settled share-based payments to employees are measured at the fair value of the equity instruments/ option at the grant date.

The fair value determined at the grant date of the equity settled share-based payments is expensed on a straight line basis over the vesting period, based on the Company''s estimate of equity instruments that will eventually vest, with a corresponding increase in equity. At the end of each reporting period, the Company revises its estimate of the number of equity instruments expected to vest. The impact of the revision of the original estimates, if any is recognized in statement of profit and loss such that the cumulative expense reflects the revised estimate, with a corresponding adjustment to the share options outstanding reserve.

2.20 Operating segment

The management views the Company''s operation as a single segment engaged in business of Branding, Processing, Selling and Distribution of ''Fashion Products''. Hence there is no separate reportable segment under Ind AS 108 ''Operating segment''.

2.21 Key sources of estimation uncertainty and critical accounting judgments

In the course of applying the accounting policies, the Company is required to make judgments, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future period, if the revision affects current and future periods.

Key sources of estimation uncertainty

Useful lives of property, plant and equipment

Management reviews the useful lives of property, plant and equipment at least once a year. Such lives are dependent upon an assessment of both the technical lives of the assets and also their likely economic lives based on various internal and external factors including relative efficiency and operating costs. Accordingly, depreciable lives are reviewed annually using the best information available to the Management.

Impairment of property, plant and equipment, investment in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates

Determining whether the assets are impaired requires an estimate in the value in use of cash generating units. It requires to estimate the future cash flows expected to arise from the cash generating units and a suitable discount rate in order to calculate present value. When the actual cash flows are less than expected, a material impairment loss may arise.

Provisions, liabilities and contingencies

The timing of recognition of provision requires application of judgment to existing facts and circumstances which may be subject to change.

Fair value measurements

Some of the Company''s assets and liabilities are measured at fair value for financial reporting purposes. 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 qualified values to perform the valuation.

The management works closely with the qualified external valuers to establish the appropriate valuation techniques and inputs to the model. A degree of estimate is required in establishing fair values.

2.22 First-time adoption of Ind-AS - Mandatory exceptions, optional exemptions

Overall principle

The Company has prepared the opening balance sheet as per Ind AS as of April 01, 2016 ("transition date") by recognizing all assets and liabilities whose recognition is required by Ind AS, not recognizing items of assets or liabilities which are not permitted by Ind AS, by reclassifying items from previous GAAP to Ind AS as required under Ind AS and applying Ind AS in measurement of recognized assets and liabilities. However, this principle is subject to the certain exception and certain optional exemptions availed by the Company as detailed below.

On March 28, 2018, Ministry of Corporate Affairs ("MCA") has notified the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Amendment Rules, 2018 containing Appendix B to Ind AS 21, Foreign currency transactions and advance consideration which clarifies the date of the transaction for the purpose of determining the exchange rate to use on initial recognition of the related asset, expense or income, when an entity has received or paid advance consideration in a foreign currency. The amendment will come into force from April 01, 2018.

Ind AS 115- Revenue from Contract with Customers:

Further the new standard requires enhanced disclosures about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from the entity''s contracts with customers.

The standard permits two possible methods of transition:

- Retrospective approach - Under this approach the standard will be applied retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented in accordance with Ind AS 8- Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors

- Retrospectively with cumulative effect of initially applying the standard recognized at the date of initial application (Cumulative catch - up approach) the effective date for adoption of Ind AS 115 is financial periods beginning on or after April 01, 2018.

The Company will adopt the standard on April 01, 2018.
