(D) MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES INFORMATION

i Inventories:

Inventories is valued at lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost include purchase price as well as incidental expenses. Cost formula used is either ''Specific Identification'' or ''FIFO''. The net
realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion and estimated costs necessary to make the sale.

ii Cash and Cash Equivalents:

Cash and cash equivalents for the purpose of Cash Flow Statement comprise cash and cheques in hand, bank balances and short-term (three months or less from the date of acquisition), highly
liquid investments that are readily convertible into cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.

iii Financial Instruments:

A financial instrument is any contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one entity and a financial liability or equity
instrument of another entity.

Financial Assets

Initial recognition and measurement:

The Company recognizes a financial asset in its Balance Sheet when it becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. All financial assets are recognized initially at fair value.
Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets, which are not at fair value through profit or loss, are added to the fair value measured on initial
recognition of financial asset. Where the fair value of a financial asset at initial recognition is different from its transaction price, the difference between the fair value and the transaction price is
recognized as a gain or loss in the Statement of Profit and Loss at initial recognition if the fair value is determined through a quoted market price in an active market for an identical asset (i.e.
level 1 input) or through a valuation technique that uses data from observable markets (i.e. level 2 input). In case the fair value is not determined using a level 1 or level 2 input as mentioned
above, the difference between the fair value and transaction price is deferred appropriately and recognized as a gain or loss in the Statement of Profit and Loss only to the extent that such gain or
loss arises due to a change in factor that market participants take into account when pricing the financial asset.

However, trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component are measured at the transaction price.

Subsequent measurement:

Financial assets are subsequently measured at amortised cost, fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI) or fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL) on the basis of both:

- the entity''s business model for managing the financial assets, and

- the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial assets.

(a) Measured at amortised cost: Financial assets that are held within a business model whose objective is to hold financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows that are solely payments
of principal and interest, are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate (''EIR'') method less impairment, if any. The amortisation of EIR and loss arising from
impairment, if any, is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss. This category applies to cash and bank balances, trade receivables, loans and other financial assets of the Company . The EIR
is the rate that discounts estimated future cash income through the expected life of financial instrument.

(b) Measured at fair value through other comprehensive income: Financial assets that are held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both, selling financial assets and collecting
contractual cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest, are subsequently measured at fair value through other comprehensive income. Fair value movements are recognized in
the other comprehensive income (OCI). Interest income measured using the EIR method and impairment losses, if any, are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss. On derecognition,
cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in OCI is reclassified from the equity to ''other income'' in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

Further, the Company, through an irrevocable election at initial recognition, has measured investments in equity instruments other than investment in subsidiary at FVTOCI. The Company has
made such election on an instrument by instrument basis. These equity instruments are neither held for trading nor are contingent consideration recognized under a business combination.
Pursuant to such irrevocable election, subsequent changes in the fair value of such equity instruments are recognized in OCI. However, the Company recognizes dividend income from such
instruments in the Statement of Profit and Loss. On derecognition of such financial assets, cumulative gain or loss previously recognized in OCI is not reclassified from the equity to Statement of
Profit and Loss. However, the Company may transfer such cumulative gain or loss into retained earnings within equity.

(c) Measured at fair value through profit or loss: A financial asset is measured at FVTPL unless it is measured at amortized cost or at FVTOCI. This is a residual category applied to all other
investments of the Company excluding investments in subsidiary. Such financial assets are subsequently measured at fair value at each reporting date. Fair value changes are recognized in the
Statement of Profit and Loss.

Derecognition

The Company derecognises a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire, or it transfers the contractual rights to receive the cash flows from the
asset.

Impairment of Financial Assets

Expected credit losses are recognized for all financial assets subsequent to initial recognition.

For financial assets other than trade receivables, as per Ind AS 109, the Company recognises 12-month expected credit losses for all originated or acquired financial assets if at the reporting date
the credit risk of the financial asset has not increased significantly since its initial recognition. The expected credit losses are measured as lifetime expected credit losses if the credit risk on
financial asset increases significantly since its initial recognition. The Company''s trade receivables do not contain significant financing component and loss allowance on trade receivables is
measured at an amount equal to life time expected losses i.e. expected cash shortfall.

The impairment losses and reversals are recognised in Statement of Profit and Loss.

Financial Liabilities:

Initial recognition and measurement

Financial liabilities are recognised when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Financial liabilities are initially measured at the fair value. Transaction
costs that are directly attributable to the financial liabilities (other than financial liability at fair value through profit or loss) are deducted from the fair value measured on initial recognition of
financial liability.

Subsequent measurement

Financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the EIR method. Financial liabilities carried at fair value through profit or loss are measured at fair value with all changes
in fair value recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

Derecognition

A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged, cancelled or expires.

iv FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT:

The Company measures financial instruments at fair value in accordance with the accounting policies mentioned above. Fair value is the price that would be received on sell of an asset or paid to
transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value measurement is based on the presumption that the transaction to sell the asset or
transfer the liability takes place either:

- in the principal market for the asset or liability, or

- in the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the asset or liability.

All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the financial statements are categorized within the fair value hierarchy that categorizes into three levels, described as
follows, the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure value. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1
inputs) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 inputs).

Level 1: Quoted (unadjusted) prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

Level 2 — inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either
directly or indirectly

Level 3 — inputs that are unobservable for the asset or liability

For assets and liabilities that are recognized in the financial statements at fair value on a recurring basis, the Company determines whether transfers have occurred between levels in the
hierarchy by re-assessing categorization at the end of each reporting period and discloses the same.
