Gujarat Craft Industries Limited (Company) is a Public Limited Company domiciled in India and
incorporated under the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013. Its shares are listed on Bombay Stock
Exchange in India. The Company is engaged in the manufacturing of HDPE / PP woven fabrics, sacks,
PE tarpaulin. The company caters to both domestic and international markets.
The Board of directors approved the financials statements for the year ended March 31, 2025 and
authorized for issue on May 27, 2025.
(i) Compliance with Ind-AS
The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with Indian Accounting
Standards (Ind AS) notified under the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 (as
amended).
The financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for certain financial
instruments which are measured at fair values.
Accounting policies have been consistently applied except where a newly-issued accounting
standard is initially adopted or a revision to an existing accounting standard requires a change in
the accounting policy hitherto in use.
(ii) Current versus non-current classification
The Company presents assets and liabilities in the Balance Sheet based on current/non-current
classification.
An asset is treated as current when it is:
⢠Expected to be realised or intended to be sold or consumed in the normal operating cycle;
⢠Held primarily for the purpose of trading;
⢠Expected to be realised within twelve months after the reporting period; or
⢠Cash or cash equivalent unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for
at least twelve months after the reporting period.
All other assets are classified as non-current.
A liability is current when:
⢠It is expected to be settled in the normal operating cycle;
⢠It is held primarily for the purpose of trading;
⢠It is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period; or
⢠There is no unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least twelve months
after the reporting period.
The Company classifies all other liabilities as non-current.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as non-current assets and liabilities respectively.
The operating cycle is the time between acquisition of assets for processing and their realisation
in cash and cash equivalents. The Company has identified twelve months as its operating cycle.
(iii) Rounding of amounts
The financial statements are presented in INR and all values are rounded to the nearest Lakh as
per the requirement of Schedule III, unless otherwise stated.
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with Ind AS requires the Management to
make estimates, judgments and assumptions. These estimates, judgments and assumptions affect the
application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosures of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues
and expenses during the period. The application of accounting policies that require critical accounting
estimates involving complex and subjective judgments and the use of assumptions in these financial
statements have been disclosed in Note 1.4. Accounting estimates could change from period to period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates. Appropriate changes in estimates are made as the
management becomes aware of the changes in circumstances surrounding the estimates.
The said estimates are based on the facts and events, that existed as at the reporting date, or that
occurred after that date but provide additional evidence about conditions existing as at the reporting
date.
The preparation of financial statements requires the use of accounting estimates which by definition
will seldom equal the actual results. Management also need to exercise judgment in applying the
Companyâs accounting policies.
This note provides an overview of the areas that involved a higher degree of judgment or complexity,
and items which are more likely to be materially adjusted due to estimates and assumptions turning
out to be different than those originally assessed. Detailed information about each of these estimates
and judgments is included in relevant notes together with information about the basis of calculation for
each affected line item in the financial statements.
The areas involving critical estimates or judgment are:
Estimation of current tax expenses - refer note 1.7
The Groupâs tax jurisdiction is India. Significant judgments are involved in estimating budgeted profits
for the purpose of paying advance tax, determining the provision for income taxes, including amount
expected to be paid/recovered for uncertain tax positions (Refer note 18).
Estimation of Defined benefit obligation - refer note 1.14
The costs of providing pensions and other post-employment benefits are charged to the Statement of
Profit and Loss in accordance with IND AS 19 âEmployee benefitsâ over the period during which benefit
is derived from the employeesâ services. The costs are assessed on the basis of assumptions selected
by the management. These assumptions include salary escalation rate, discount rates, expected rate
of return on assets and mortality rates. The same is disclosed in Note 39, âPost Retirement Benefit
Plansâ.
The Company measures financial instruments, such as, derivatives at fair value as per Ind AS 113 at
each balance sheet date. All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the
financial statements are categorized within the fair value hierarchy, described as follows, based on the
lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole:
- Level 1 â Quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
- Level 2 â Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value
measurement is directly or indirectly observable
- Level 3 â Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value
measurement is unobservable
For the purpose of fair value disclosures, the Company has determined classes of assets and liabilities
on the basis of the nature, characteristics and risks of the asset or liability and the level of the fair value
hierarchy as explained above.
Revenue is recognized upon transfer of control of promised products or services to customers in an
amount that reflects the consideration which the company expects to receive in exchange for those
products or services GST is not received by the Company on its own account. Rather, it is tax collected
on value added to the commodity by the seller on behalf of the government. Accordingly, it is excluded
from revenue.
The specific recognition criteria described below must also be met before revenue is recognized.
âRevenue towards satisfaction of a performance obligation is measured at the amount of transaction
price (net of variable consideration) allocated to that performance obligation. The transaction price of
goods sold is net of variable consideration on account of various discounts offered by the company as
the part of contract. Revenue (net of variable consideration) is recognized only to the extent that is
highly probable that amount will not be subject to significant reversal when uncertainty relating to its
recognition is resolved.â
Sale of goods
Revenue from the sale of goods is recognized when control of the goods have passed to the buyer,
usually on delivery of the goods. In determining the transaction price for the sale of goods, the company
considers the effects of variable consideration, the existence of significant financing components, non
cash consideration, and consideration payable to the customer (if any).
Interest income
Interest income on financial asset is recognized using the effective interest rate (EIR) method.
Dividends
Dividend income from investment is accounted for when the right to receive is established, which is
generally when shareholders approve the dividend.
Other Income:
Other income is recognized when no significant uncertainty as to its determination or realization exists.
Contract Balances:
Trade Receivables:
A receivable represents the companyâs right to an amount of consideration that is unconditional (i.e.,
only the passage of time is required before payment of the consideration is due). Refer note 1.16
Financial instruments - initial recognition and subsequent measurement.
Contract Liabilities:
A contract liability is the obligation to transfer goods or services to a customer for which the company
has received consideration (or an amount of consideration is due) from the customer. If a customer
pays consideration before the company transfers goods or services to the customer, a contract liability
is recognised when the payment is made or the payment is due (whichever is earlier). Revenue for the
same is recognised when the company performs under the contract.
Tax expenses comprise of current and deferred tax.
a Current tax is measured at the amount expected to be paid on the basis of reliefs and deductions
available in accordance with the provisions of the Income Tax Act, 1961. The tax rates and tax
laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted or substantively enacted, at the
reporting date.
b Current tax items are recognized in correlation to the underlying transaction either in Profit &
Loss, Other Comprehensive Income or directly in equity.
a Deferred tax is provided using the balance sheet approach on temporary differences between the
tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes at
the reporting date.
b Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for all taxable temporary differences.
c Deferred tax assets are recognized for all deductible temporary differences, the carry forward of
any unused tax losses. Deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probable that
taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, the carry
forward of unused tax losses can be utilized.
d The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the
extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part
of the deferred tax asset to be utilized. Unrecognized deferred tax assets are re-assessed at each
reporting date and are recognized to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable
profits will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered.
e Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the
year when the asset is realized or the liability is settled, based on tax rates that have been enacted
or substantively enacted at the reporting date.
f Deferred tax items are recognized in correlation to the underlying transaction either in OCI or
directly in equity.
g Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset if a legally enforceable right exists to set
off current tax assets against current tax liabilities.
Property, Plant and Equipment (PPE) (including Capital work in progress) are stated at cost net of
accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. The cost comprises the purchase
price, borrowing costs, if capitalization criteria are met, directly attributable cost of bringing the asset to
its working condition for the intended use.
Capital Work in progress included in PPE is stated at cost, net accumulated depreciation and
accumulated impairment losses, if any. Such cost includes the cost of replacing part of the plant and
equipment and borrowing costs for long-term constructions projects if the recognition criteria is met.
When significant parts of plant and equipment are required to be replaced at intervals, the Company
depreciates them separately based on their specific useful lives. Likewise, when a major inspection is
performed, its cost is recognized in the carrying amount of the plant and equipment as a replacement
if the recognition criteria are satisfied. All other repair and maintenance costs are recognized in profit
or loss as incurred.
Borrowing cost relating to acquisition/construction of fixed assets which take substantial period of time
to get ready for its intended use are also included to the extent they relate to the period till such assets
are ready to be put to use.
Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the assets as
prescribed under Part C of Schedule II of the Companies Act, 2013 except for the assets mentioned
below for which useful lives estimated by the management. The identified component of fixed assets
are depreciated over the useful lives and the remaining components are depreciated over the life of
the principal assets.
Further, the Company evaluated the useful life of certain components of Plant and Machinery, the
impact of which is not material. Assets costing Rs. 5,000 or less are fully depreciated in the year of
purchase.
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 (calculated as the difference between the net disposal
proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in the statement of profit and loss when the
asset is derecognised.
Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of an asset that
necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use or sale are capitalized as
part of the cost of the asset. All other borrowing costs are expensed in the period in which they occur.
Borrowing costs consist of interest and other costs that an entity incurs in connection with the borrowing
of funds. Borrowing cost also includes exchange differences to the extent regarded as an adjustment
to the borrowing costs.
General borrowing costs are capitalized at the weighted average of such borrowings outstanding
during the year.
The determination of whether an arrangement is (or contains) a lease is based on the substance of the
arrangement at the inception of the lease. The arrangement is, or contains, a lease if fulfilment of the
arrangement is dependent on the use of a specific asset or assets and the arrangement conveys a
right to use the asset or assets, even if that right is not explicitly specified in an arrangement.
Company as a lessee:
(i) Right-of-use assets
The Company recognizes right-of-use assets at the commencement date of the lease (i.e., the
date the underlying asset is available for use). Right-of-use assets are measured at cost, less any
accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, and adjusted for any remeasurement of lease
liabilities. The cost of right-of-use assets includes the amount of lease liabilities recognized, initial
direct cost incurred and Lease payment made at or before the commencement date less any
lease incentives received. Right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the
the lease term and the estimated useful lives of the assets is over the balance period of lease
agreement.
If ownership of the leased asset transfers to the Company at the end of the lease term or the cost
reflects the exercise of a purchase option, depreciation is calculated using the estimated useful
life of the asset. The right-of-use assets are also subject to impairment. Refer to the accounting
policies in relating to Impairment of non-financial assets.
(ii) Lease Liabilities
At the commencement date of the lease, company recognizes lease liabilities measured at the
present value of lease payments to be made over the lease term. The lease payments include
fixed payments (including in substance fixed payments) less any lease incentives receivable,
variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, and amounts expected to be paid
under residual value guarantees. The lease payments also include the exercise price of a purchase
option reasonably certain to be exercised by the company and payments of penalties for terminating
the lease, if the lease term reflects the company exercising the option to terminate. Variable lease
payments that do not depend on an index or a rate are recognized as expenses (unless they are
incurred to produce inventories) in the period in which the event or condition that triggers the
payment occurs.
In calculating the present value of lease payments, company uses its incremental borrowing rate
at the lease commencement date because the interest rate implicit in the lease is not readily
determinable. After the commencement date, the amount of lease liabilities is increased to reflect
the accretion of interest and reduced for the lease payments made. In addition, the carrying
amount of lease liabilities is remeasured if there is a modification, a change in the lease term, a
change in the lease payments (e.g., changes to future payments resulting from a change in an
index or rate used to determine such lease payments) or a change in the assessment of an option
to purchase the underlying asset.
(iii) Short-term leases and leases of low-value assets
Company applies the short-term lease recognition exemption to its short-term leases. (i.e., those
leases that have a lease term of 12 months or less from the commencement date and do not
contain a purchase option). It also applies the lease of low-value assets recognition exemption
that are considered to be low value. Lease payments on short-term leases and leases of low-
value assets are recognized as expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Inventories are valued as under:
a RAW MATERIALS, PACKING MATERIALS AND STORES & SPARES :
Raw materials and stores and spares are valued at lower of cost and net realizable value. However,
materials and other items held for use in the production of inventories are not written down below
cost if the finished products in which they will be incorporated are expected to be sold at or above
cost. Cost of raw materials and stores and spares is determined on First-in-First-out basis.
b FINISHED GOODS & WORK IN PROGRESS :
Work-in-progress and finished goods are valued at lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost
includes direct materials and labour and a proportion of manufacturing overheads based on
normal operating capacity.
c WASTAGE :
Wastages are valued at net realizable value.
d STOCK-IN-TRADE :
Valued at lower of cost or net realizable value and for this purpose cost is determined on weighted
average basis.
Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less estimated
costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.
Intangible assets and Property, Plant and Equipment are evaluated for recoverability whenever events
or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. For the
purpose of impairment testing, the recoverable amount (i.e. the higher of the fair value less cost to sell
and the value-in-use) is determined on an individual asset basis unless the asset does not generate
cash flows that are largely independent of those from other assets. In such cases, the recoverable
amount is determined for the CGU to which the asset belongs.
If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized in the Statement of Profit
and Loss is measured by the amount by which the carrying value of the assets exceeds the estimated
recoverable amount of the asset. An impairment loss is reversed in the Statement of Profit and Loss if
there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. The carrying
amount of the asset is increased to its revised recoverable amount, provided that this amount does not
exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined (net of any accumulated amortization or
depreciation) had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset in prior year.
Impairment is determined for goodwill by assessing the recoverable amount of each Cash Generating
Unit (i.e. CGU) (or group of CGUs) to which the goodwill relates. When the recoverable amount of the
CGU is less than its carrying amount, an impairment loss is recognised. Impairment losses relating to
goodwill cannot be reversed in future periods.
Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are tested for impairment annually as at year end at the
CGU level, as appropriate, and when circumstances indicate that the carrying value may be impaired.

Company as a lessee:
(i) Right-of-use assets
The Company recognizes right-of-use assets at the commencement date of the lease (i.e., the date the underlying asset is available for use). Right-of-use assets are measured at cost, less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, and adjusted for any remeasurement of lease liabilities. The cost of right-of-use assets includes the amount of lease liabilities recognized, initial direct cost incurred and Lease payment made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received. Right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the the lease term and the estimated useful lives of the assets is over the balance period of lease agreement.
If ownership of the leased asset transfers to the Company at the end of the lease term or the cost reflects the exercise of a purchase option, depreciation is calculated using the estimated useful life of the asset. The right-of-use assets are also subject to impairment. Refer to the accounting policies in relating to Impairment of non-financial assets.
(ii) Lease Liabilities
At the commencement date of the lease, company recognizes lease liabilities measured at the present value of lease payments to be made over the lease term. The lease payments include fixed payments (including in substance fixed payments) less any lease incentives receivable, variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, and amounts expected to be paid under residual value guarantees.

Company applies the short-term lease recognition exemption to its short-term leases. (i.e., those leases that have a lease term of 12 months or less from the commencement date and do not contain a purchase option). It also applies the lease of low-value assets recognition exemption that are considered to be low value. Lease payments on short-term leases and leases of low-value assets are recognized as expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Inventories are valued as under:
a RAW MATERIALS, PACKING MATERIALS AND STORES & SPARES :
Raw materials and stores and spares are valued at lower of cost and net realizable value. However, materials and other items held for use in the production of inventories are not written down below cost if the finished products in which they will be incorporated are expected to be sold at or above cost.

c WASTE :
At net realizable value d STOCK-IN-TRADE :
Valued at lower of cost or net realizable value and for this purpose cost is determined on weighted average basis.
Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.
a Financial asset
The Company recognizes loss allowances using the expected credit loss (ECL) model for the financial assets which are not fair valued through profit or loss. Loss allowance for trade receivables with no significant financing component is measured at an amount equal to lifetime ECL. For all other financial assets, ECLs are measured at an amount equal to the 12-month ECL, unless there has been a significant increase in credit risk from initial recognition in which case those are measured at lifetime ECL. The amount of ECL (or reversal) that is required to adjust the loss allowance at the reporting date to the amount that is required to be recognized is recognized as an impairment gain or loss in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
b Non-financial assets
Intangible assets and Property, Plant and Equipment are evaluated for recoverability whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. For the purpose of impairment testing, the recoverable amount (i.e. the higher of the fair value less cost to sell and the value-in-use) is determined on an individual asset basis unless the asset does not generate cash flows that are largely independent of those from other assets. In such cases, the recoverable amount is determined for the CGU to which the asset belongs.
If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss is measured by the amount by which the carrying value of the assets exceeds the estimated recoverable amount of the asset. An impairment loss is reversed in the Statement of Profit and Loss if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. The carrying amount of the asset is increased to its revised recoverable amount, provided that this amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined (net of any accumulated amortization or depreciation) had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset in prior year.

A. Use of estimates : The preparation of financial statements in
conformity with Indian GAAP requires the management to make judgments,
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues,
expenses, assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent
liabilities, at the end of the reporting period. Although these
estimates are based on the management's best knowledge of current
events and actions, uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates
could result in the outcomes requiring a material adjustment to the
carrying amounts of assets or liabilities in future periods.
b. Tangible fixed assets : Fixed Assets are stated at cost of
acquisition and installation, net of cenvet, Vat less accumulated
Depreciation. Borrowing costs incurred during the period of
construction/Acquisitions of assets are added to the cost of Fixed
Assets. Major expenses on modification/alterations increasing
efficiency/capacity of the plant are also capitalized. Subsequent
expenditure related to an item of fixed asset is added to its book
value only if it increases the future benefits from the existing asset
beyond its previously assessed standard of performance. All other
expenses on existing fixed assets, including day-to-day repair and
maintenance expenditure and cost of replacing parts, are charged to the
statement of profit and loss for the period during which such expenses
are incurred.
Gains or losses arising from derecognition of fixed assets are measured
as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying
amount of the asset and are recognized in the statement of profit and
loss when the asset is derecognized.
c. Depreciation on tangible fixed assets : Hither to depreciation on
fixed assets was provided on written down value method at the rates and
in the manner prescribed in Schedule XIV of the Companies Act 1956, (as
amended). Consequent to the enactment of the Companies Act, 2013 (The
Act) and its applicability for accounting periods commencing after
01/04/2014, the company reviewed its policy of providing depreciation
with reference to the estimated economic lives of Fixed Assets as
prescribed by Schedule II of the Act.
In case of any asset whose life is already exhausted, the carrying
value as at 01/04/2014 of Rs. 1,371 (in '000) has been ascertained and
the impact is recognized in general reserve (net of deferred tax). Had
the Company followed the earlier depreciation policy, the depreciation
charge for the year would have been higher by Rs. 1,523 (in '000) and
profit before tax would have been lower by Rs. 1,523 (in '000).
d. Intangible assets : Intangible assets acquired separately are
measured on initial recognition at cost. Following initial recognition,
intangible assets are carried at cost less accumulated amortization and
accumulated impairment losses, if any. Internally generated intangible
assets, excluding capitalized development costs, are not capitalized
and expenditure is reflected in the statement of profit and loss in the
year in which the expenditure is incurred.
Intangible assets are amortized on a straight line basis over the
estimated useful economic life.
e. Borrowing costs : Borrowing cost includes interest, amortization of
ancillary costs incurred in connection with the arrangement of
borrowings and exchange differences arising from foreign currency
borrowings to the extent they are regarded as an adjustment to the
interest cost. Borrowing costs directly attributable to the
acquisition, construction or production of an asset that necessarily
takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use or
sale are capitalized as part of the cost of the respective asset. All
other borrowing costs are expensed in the period they occur.
f. Impairment of tangible and intangible 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 impairment loss is recognised in the accounts to
the extent the carrying amount exceeds, the recoverable amount.
g. Government grants and subsidies : Grants and subsidies from the
government are recognized when there is reasonable assurance that (i)
the company will comply with the conditions attached to them, and (ii)
the grant/subsidy will be received.
When the grant or subsidy relates to revenue, it is recognized as
income on a systematic basis in the statement of profit and loss over
the periods necessary to match them with the related costs, which they
are intended to compensate. Such grants are deducted in reporting the
related expense. Where the grant relates to an asset, it is recognized
as deferred income and released to income in equal amounts over the
expected useful life of the related asset.
Where the company receives non-monetary grants, the asset is accounted
for on the basis of its acquisition cost. In case a non-monetary asset
is given free of cost, it is recognized at a nominal value.
Government grants of the nature of promoters' contribution are credited
to capital reserve and treated as a part of the shareholders' funds.
h. Investments : Investments, which are readily realizable and
intended to be held for not more than one year from the date on which
such investments are made, are classified as current investments. All
other investments are classified as long-term investments.
On initial recognition, all investments are measured at cost. The cost
comprises purchase price and directly attributable acquisition charges
such as brokerage, fees and duties.
Current investments are carried in the financial statements at lower of
cost and fair value determined on an individual investment basis.
Long-term investments are carried at cost. However, provision for
diminution in value is made to recognize a decline other than temporary
in the value of the investments.
On disposal of an investment, the difference between its carrying
amount and net disposal proceeds is charged or credited to the
statement of profit and loss.
i. Inventories : Raw materials and stores and spares are valued at
lower of cost and net realizable value. However, materials and other
items held for use in the production of inventories are not written
down below cost if the finished products in which they will be
incorporated are expected to be sold at or above cost. Cost of raw
materials and stores and spares is determined on First-in- First-out
basis.
Work-in-progress and finished goods are valued at lower of cost and net
realizable value. Cost includes direct materials and labour and a
proportion of manufacturing overheads based on normal operating
capacity. Cost of finished goods includes excise duty.
Waste is valued at net realizable value.
Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary
course of business, less estimated costs of completion and estimated
costs necessary to make the sale.
j. Revenue recognition : Revenue is recognized to the extent that it
is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the company and the
revenue can be reliably measured. The following specific recognition
criteria must also be met before revenue is recognized:
Sale of goods : Revenue from sale of goods is recognized when all the
significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods have been passed
to the buyer, usually on delivery of the goods. The company collects
sales taxes and value added taxes (VAT) on behalf of the government and,
therefore, these are not economic benefits flowing to the company.
Hence, they are excluded from revenue. Excise duty deducted from revenue
(gross) is the amount that is included in the revenue (gross) and not
the entire amount of liability arising during the year.
Interest : Interest income is recognized on a time proportion basis
taking into account the amount outstanding and the applicable interest
rate. Interest income is included under the head "other income" in the
statement of profit and loss.
k. Foreign currency translation
Foreign currency transactions and balances
Initial recognition
Foreign currency transactions are recorded in the reporting currency,
by applying to the foreign currency amount the exchange rate between
the reporting currency and the foreign currency at the date of the
transaction.
Conversion
Foreign currency monetary items are retranslated using the exchange
rate prevailing at the reporting date. Non-monetary items, which are
measured in terms of historical cost denominated in a foreign currency,
are reported using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction.
Non- monetary items, which are measured at fair value or other similar
valuation denominated in a foreign currency, are translated using the
exchange rate at the date when such value was determined.
Exchange differences
Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are normally recorded at
the exchange rate prevailing at the time of the transaction.
Monetary items denominated in foreign currency at the year end are
translated at the exchange rates prevailing at the balance sheet date.
Premium or discount arising at the inception of the forward exchange
contract is amortized as income or expense over the period of the
contract. Any profit or loss arising in renewal or cancellation of
forward exchange contracts are recognized as income or expenses during
the year.
Any income or expense on account of exchange difference either on
settlement or on translation is recognized in the profit and loss
account.
Losses in respect of all outstanding derivative contracts at the
balance sheet date is provided by marking them to market.
l. Employee benefits
Short Term Employee Benefits:
All employee benefits payable wholly within twelve months of rendering
the service are classified as short term employee benefits. Benefits
such as salaries, wages, short term compensated absences, etc, and the
expected cost of bonus, ex-gratia are recognized in the period in which
the employee renders the related service.
Post-Employment Benefits :
(i) Defined Contribution Plans :
State Governed Provident Fund scheme and employees state insurance
scheme are defined contribution plans. The contribution paid / payable
under the scheme is recognized during the period in which the employees
renders the related services.
(ii) Defined Benefit Plans:
The employee's gratuity fund scheme and compensated absences is
company's defined benefit plans. The present value of the obligation
under such defined benefit plan is determined based on actuarial
valuation using the projected Unit Credit Method, which recognizes each
period of service as giving rise to additional unit of employee
benefits entitlement and measures each unit separately to build up the
final obligation.
The obligation is measured at the present value of the estimated future
cash flows. The discount rates used for determining the present value
of the obligation under defined benefit plans, is based on the market
yields on Government Securities as at the balance sheet date, having
maturity periods approximating to the terms of related obligations.
Actuarial gains and losses are recognized immediately in the profit and
loss account.
Gains or losses on the curtailment or settlement of any defined
benefits plans are recognized when the curtailment or settlement
occurs. Past service cost is recognized as expense on a straight-line
basis over the average period until the benefits become vested.
(iii) Long term employee benefits :
The obligation for long term employee benefits such as long term
compensated absences, is recognized in the same manner as in case of
defined benefit plans as mentioned in ii) above.
m. Income taxes
Current tax is determined as the amount of tax payable in respect of
taxable income for the year. Deferred tax is recognized on difference
between taxable income and accounting income that originate in one
period and are capable of reversal in one or more subsequent periods.
Where there is unabsorbed depreciation or carry forward losses,deferred
tax assets are recognised only to the extent there is reasonable
certainty of realisation in future. Such assets are reviewed at each
balance sheet date to reassess realisation.
MAT credit is recognised as an assets only when there is convicing
evidence that the company will pay normal income tax within the
specified period. The assets are reviewed at each balance sheet date.
n. Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing the net profit or
loss for the period attributable to equity shareholders by the number
of equity shares outstanding during the period.
o. Provisions
A provision is recognized when the company has a present obligation 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.
Provisions are not discounted to their present value and are determined
based on the best estimate required to settle the obligation at the
reporting date. These estimates are reviewed at each reporting date and
adjusted to reflect the current best estimates.
Where the company expects some or all of a provision to be reimbursed,
for example under an insurance contract, the reimbursement is
recognized as a separate asset but only when the reimbursement is
virtually certain. The expense relating to any provision is presented
in the statement of profit and loss net of any reimbursement.
p. Contingent liabilities
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 beyond the
control of the company or a present obligation that is not recognized
because it is not probable that an outflow of resources will be
required to settle the obligation. A contingent liability also arises
in extremely rare cases where there is a liability that cannot be
recognized because it cannot be measured reliably. The company does not
recognize a contingent liability but discloses its existence in the
financial statements.
q. Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents for the purposes of cash flow statement
comprise cash at bank and in hand and short-term investments with an
original maturity of three months or less.
Mar 31, 2014
A. Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Indian GAAP
requires the management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions
that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and
liabilities and the disclosure of contingent liabilities, at the end of
the reporting period. Although these estimates are based on the
management''s best knowledge of current events and actions, uncertainty
about these assumptions and estimates could result in the outcomes
requiring a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets or
liabilities in future periods.
b. Tangible fixed assets
Fixed Assets are stated at cost of acquisition and installation, net of
cenvet, Vat less accumulated Depreciation. Borrowing costs incurred
during the period of construction/Acquisitions of assets are added to
the cost of Fixed Assets. Major expenses on modification/alterations
increasing efficiency/capacity of the plant are also capitalized.

rate prevailing at the reporting date. Non-monetary items, which are
measured in terms of historical cost denominated in a foreign currency,
are reported using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction.
Non- monetary items, which are measured at fair value or other similar
valuation denominated in a foreign currency, are translated using the
exchange rate at the date when such value was determined.
Exchange differences
Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are normally recorded at
the exchange rate prevailing at the time of the transaction.
Monetary items denominated in foreign currency at the year end are
translated at the exchange rates prevailing at the balance sheet date.
Premium or discount arising at the inception of the forward exchange
contract is amortized as income or expense over the period of the
contract. Any profit or loss arising in renewal or cancellation of
forward exchange contracts are recognized as income or expenses during

Any income or expense on account of exchange difference either on
settlement or on translation is recognized in the profit and loss
account.
Losses in respect of all outstanding derivative contracts at the

l. Employee benefits
Short Term Employee Benefits:
All employee benefits payable wholly within twelve months of rendering
the service are classified as short term employee benefits. Benefits
such as salaries, wages, short term compensated absences, etc, and the
expected cost of bonus, ex-gratia are recognized in the period in which
the employee renders the related service.
Post-Employment Benefits :
(i) Defined Contribution Plans :
State Governed Provident Fund scheme and employees state insurance
scheme are defined contribution plans. The contribution paid / payable
under the scheme is recognized during the period in which the employees
renders the related services.
(ii) Defined Benefit Plans:
The employee'' s gratuity fund scheme and compensated absences is
company''s defined benefit plans.
The present value of the obligation under such defined benefit plan is
determined based on actuarial valuation using the projected Unit Credit
Method, which recognizes each period of service as giving rise to
additional unit of employee benefits entitlement and measures each unit
separately to build up the final obligation.
The obligation is measured at the present value of the estimated future
cash flows. The discount rates used for determining the present value
of the obligation under defined benefit plans, is based on the market
yields on Government Securities as at the balance sheet date, having
maturity periods approximating to the terms of related obligations.
Actuarial gains and losses are recognized immediately in the profit and
loss account.
Gains or losses on the curtailment or settlement of any defined
benefits plans are recognized when the curtailment or settlement
occurs. Past service cost is recognized as expense on a straight-line
basis over the average period until the benefits become vested.
(c ) Long term employee benefits :
The obligation for long term employee benefits such as long term
compensated absences, is recognized in the same manner as in case of
defined benefit plans as mentioned in b) ii) above.
m. Income taxes
Current tax is determined as the amount of tax payable in respect of
taxable income for the year.
Deferred tax is recognized on difference between taxable income and
accounting income that originate in one period and are capable of
reversal in one or more subsequent periods.Where there is unabsorbed
depreciation or carry forward losses,deferred tax assets are recognised
only to the extent there is reasonable certainty of realisation in
future.Such assets are reviewed at each balance sheet date to reassess
realisation.
MAT credit is recognised as an assets only when there is convicing
evidence that the company will pay normal income tax within the
specified period. The assets are reviewed at each balance sheet date.
n. Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing the net profit or
loss for the period attributable to equity shareholders by the number
of equity shares outstanding during the period.
o. Provisions
A provision is recognized when the company has a present obligation 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.
Provisions are not discounted to their present value and are determined
based on the best estimate required to settle the obligation at the
reporting date. These estimates are reviewed at each reporting date and
adjusted to reflect the current best estimates.
Where the company expects some or all of a provision to be reimbursed,
for example under an insurance contract, the reimbursement is
recognized as a separate asset but only when the reimbursement is
virtually certain. The expense relating to any provision is presented
in the statement of profit and loss net of any reimbursement.
p. Contingent liabilities
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 beyond the
control of the company or a present obligation that is not recognized
because it is not probable that an outflow of resources will be
required to settle the obligation. A contingent liability also arises
in extremely rare cases where there is a liability that cannot be
recognized because it cannot be measured reliably. The company does not
recognize a contingent liability but discloses its existence in the
financial statements.
q. Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents for the purposes of cash flow statement
comprise cash at bank and in hand and short-term investments with an
original maturity of three months or less.
r. Measurement of EBITDA
As permitted by the Guidence note on the Revised Schedule VI to The
Companies Act, 1956, the company has to present earning before
interest, tax, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) as a separate
line item on the face of the statement of profit and loss. In its
measurement, the company does not include depreciation and amortization
expense, finance cost and tax expense.
Mar 31, 2012
A. Change in accounting policy
Presentation and disclosure of financial statements
During the year ended 31 March 2012, the revised Schedule VI notified
under the Companies Act 1956, has become applicable to the company, for
preparation and presentation of its financial statements. The adoption
of revised Schedule VI does not impact recognition and measurement
principles followed for preparation of financial statements. However,
it has significant impact on presentation and disclosures made in the
financial statements. The company has also reclassified the previous
year figures in accordance with the requirements applicable in the
current year.
b. Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Indian GAAP
requires the management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions
that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and
liabilities and the disclosure of contingent liabilities, at the end of
the reporting period. Although these estimates are based on the
management's best knowledge of current events and actions, uncertainty
about these assumptions and estimates could result in the outcomes
requiring a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets or
liabilities in future periods.
c. Tangible fixed assets
Fixed Assets are stated at cost of acquisition and installation, net of
cenvet, Vat less accumulated Depreciation. Borrowing costs incurred
during the period of construction/Acquisitions of assets are added to
the cost of Fixed Assets. Major expenses on modification/alterations
increasing efficiency/capacity of the plant are also capitalized.
Subsequent expenditure related to an item of fixed asset is added to
its book value only if it increases the future benefits from the
existing asset beyond its previously assessed standard of performance.
All other expenses on existing fixed assets, including day-to-day
repair and maintenance expenditure and cost of replacing parts, are
charged to the statement of profit and loss for the period during which
such expenses are incurred.
Gains or losses arising from derecognition of fixed assets are measured
as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying
amount of the asset and are recognized in the statement of profit and
loss when the asset is derecognized.
d. Depreciation on tangible fixed assets
Depreciation on fixed assets is calculated on a straight-line basis
using the rates arrived at based on the useful lives estimated by the
management, or those prescribed under the Schedule XIV to the Companies
Act, 1956, whichever is higher.
e. Intangible assets
Intangible assets acquired separately are measured on initial
recognition at cost. Following initial recognition, intangible assets
are carried at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated
impairment losses, if any. Internally generated intangible assets,
excluding capitalized development costs, are not capitalized and
expenditure is reflected in the statement of profit and loss in the
year in which the expenditure is incurred.
Intangible assets are amortized on a straight line basis over the
estimated useful economic life.
f. Borrowing costs
Borrowing cost includes interest, amortization of ancillary costs
incurred in connection with the arrangement of borrowings and exchange
differences arising from foreign currency borrowings to the extent they
are regarded as an adjustment to the interest cost.
Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction
or production of an asset that necessarily takes a substantial period
of time to get ready for its intended use or sale are capitalized as
part of the cost of the respective asset. All other borrowing costs are
expensed in the period they occur.
g. Impairment of tangible and intangible 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 impairment loss is
recognised in the accounts to the extent the carrying amount exceeds,
the recoverable amount.
h. Government grants and subsidies
Grants and subsidies from the government are recognized when there is
reasonable assurance that (i) the company will comply with the
conditions attached to them, and (ii) the grant/subsidy will be
received.
When the grant or subsidy relates to revenue, it is recognized as
income on a systematic basis in the statement of profit and loss over
the periods necessary to match them with the related costs, which they
are intended to compensate. Such grants are deducted in reporting the
related expense. Where the grant relates to an asset, it is recognized
as deferred income and released to income in equal amounts over the
expected useful life of the related asset.
Where the company receives non-monetary grants, the asset is accounted
for on the basis of its acquisition cost. In case a non-monetary asset
is given free of cost, it is recognized at a nominal value.
Government grants of the nature of promoters' contribution are credited
to capital reserve and treated as a part of the shareholders' funds.
i. Investments
Investments, which are readily realizable and intended to be held for
not more than one year from the date on which such investments are
made, are classified as current investments. All other investments are
classified as long-term investments.
On initial recognition, all investments are measured at cost. The cost
comprises purchase price and directly attributable acquisition charges
such as brokerage, fees and duties.
Current investments are carried in the financial statements at lower of
cost and fair value determined on an individual investment basis.
Long-term investments are carried at cost. However, provision for
diminution in value is made to recognize a decline other than temporary
in the value of the investments.
On disposal of an investment, the difference between its carrying
amount and net disposal proceeds is charged or credited to the
statement of profit and loss.
j. Inventories
Raw materials and stores and spares are valued at lower of cost and net
realizable value. However, materials and other items held for use in
the production of inventories are not written down below cost if the
finished products in which they will be incorporated are expected to be
sold at or above cost. Cost of raw materials and stores and spares is
determined on First-in-First-out basis.
Work-in-progress and finished goods are valued at lower of cost and net
realizable value. Cost includes direct materials and labour and a
proportion of manufacturing overheads based on normal operating
capacity. Cost of finished goods includes excise duty and is determined
on First- in-First-out basis.
Waste is valued at net realizable value.
Stock in Transit is valued at cost.
Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary
course of business, less estimated costs of completion and estimated
costs necessary to make the sale.
k. Revenue recognition
Revenue is recognized to the extent that it is probable that the
economic benefits will flow to the company and the revenue can be
reliably measured. The following specific recognition criteria must
also be met before revenue is recognized:
Sale of goods
Revenue from sale of goods is recognized when all the significant risks
and rewards of ownership of the goods have been passed to the buyer,
usually on delivery of the goods. The company collects sales taxes and
value added taxes (VAT) on behalf of the government and, therefore,
these are not economic benefits flowing to the company. Hence, they are
excluded from revenue. Excise duty deducted from revenue (gross) is
the amount that is included in the revenue (gross) and not the entire
amount of liability arising during the year.
Interest
Interest income is recognized on a time proportion basis taking into
account the amount outstanding and the applicable interest rate.
Interest income is included under the head "other income" in the
statement of profit and loss.
l. Foreign currency translation

contract. Any profit or loss arising in renewal or cancellation of
forward exchange contracts are recognized as income or expenses during
the year.
