Provisions (legal and constructive) are
recognised when the Company has a present
obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of
a past event, it is probable that the Company
will be required to settle the obligation, and a
reliable estimate can be made of the amount of
the obligation.
The amount recognised as a provision is the
best estimate of the consideration required to
settle the present obligation at the end of the
reporting period, taking into account the risks
and uncertainties surrounding the obligation.
When a provision is measured using the cash
flows estimated to settle the present obligation,
its carrying amount is the present value of
those cash flows (when the effect of the time
value of money is material).
When some or all of the economic benefits
required to settle a provision are expected to
be recovered from a third party, a receivable is
recognised as an asset if it is virtually certain
that reimbursement will be received and the
amount of the receivable can be measured
reliably.
If the Company has a contract that is onerous,
the present obligation under the contract is
recognised and measured as a provision.
However, before a separate provision for an
onerous contract is established, the Company
recognises any impairment loss that has
occurred on assets dedicated to that contract
An onerous contract is a contract under which
the unavoidable costs (i.e., the costs that the
Company cannot avoid because it has the
contract) of meeting the obligations under the
contract exceed the economic benefits expected
to be received under it. The unavoidable costs
under a contract reflect the least net cost of
exiting from the contract, which is the lower of
the cost of fulfilling it and any compensation
or penalties arising from failure to fulfil it.
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.
Commitments are future liabilities for
contractual expenditure. The commitments are
classified and disclosed as follows:
(a) The estimated amount of contracts
remaining to be executed on capital
account and not provided for; and
(b) Other non-cancellable commitments,
if any, to the extent they are considered
material and relevant in the opinion of
the Management.
The preparation of the Companyâs financial
statements requires management to makejudgements,
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities,
and the Company disclosures, and the disclosure of
contingent liabilities. Management believes that the
estimates used in the preparation of the financial
statements are prudent and reasonable. Uncertainty
about these assumptions and estimates could result
in outcomes that require a material adjustment to the
carrying amount of assets or liabilities affected in
future periods. Difference between actual results and
estimates are recognised in the periods in which the
results are known / materialised.
Estimates, Assumptions and Judgements:
The key assumptions concerning the future and
other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the
reporting date, that have a significant risk of causing
a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of
assets and liabilities within the next financial year,
are described below. The Company has based its
assumptions and estimates on parameters available
when the financial statements were prepared.
Existing circumstances and assumptions about
future developments, however, may change due to
market changes or circumstances arising that are
beyond the control of the Company. Such changes
are reflected in the assumptions when they occur.
In the process of applying the Companyâs accounting
policies, management has made the following
judgements, which have the most significant effect on
the amounts recognised in the financial statements:
(i) Useful life of Property, Plant and
Equipment:
Property, Plant and Equipment represent a
significant proportion of the asset base of the
Company. The charge in respect of periodic
depreciation is derived after determining an
estimate of an assetâs expected useful life,
its expected usage pattern and the expected
residual value at the end of its life. The
useful lives, usage pattern and residual values
of Company''s assets are determined by
management at the time the asset is acquired
and reviewed periodically, including at each
financial year end. The lives are based on
historical experience with similar assets as
well as anticipation of future events, which
may impact their life, such as changes in
technology etc.
(ii) Inventories:
The Company writes down inventories to
net realisable value based on an estimate of
the realisability of inventories. Write downs
on inventories are recorded where events
or changes in circumstances indicate that
the carrying value may not be realised. The
identification of write-downs requires the use
of estimates of net selling prices of the down¬
graded inventories. Where the expectation
is different from the original estimate, such
difference will impact the carrying value of
inventories and write-downs of inventories in
the periods in which such estimate has been
changed.
(iii) Defined Benefit Obligation:
The Companyâs obligation on account
of gratuity and compensated absences is
determined based on actuarial valuations. An
actuarial valuation involves making various
assumptions that may differ from actual
developments in the future. These include
the determination of the discount rate, future
salary increases and mortality rates. Due to the
complexities involved in the valuation and its
long-term nature, these liabilities are highly
sensitive to changes in these assumptions. All
assumptions are reviewed at each reporting
date.
The parameter most subject to change is the
discount rate. In determining the appropriate
discount rate, the management considers
the interest rates of government bonds in
currencies consistent with the currencies of the
post-employment benefit obligation.
The mortality rate is based on publicly available
mortality tables. Those mortality tables tend
to change only at interval in response to
demographic changes. Future salary increases
and gratuity increases are based on expected
future inflation rates.
Further details about gratuity obligations are
given in Note 32 (IIl).
(iv) Current Tax expense and Deferred Tax:
The Companyâs tax jurisdiction is India.
Significant judgements 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.
A tax assessement can involve complex issues,
which can only be resolved over extended
time periods. The recognisation of taxes that
are subject to certain legal or economic limits
or uncertainties is assessed individually by
the managment based on the specific facts and
circumstances.
(v) Recognition of Deferred Tax Assets/
Liabilities:
The recognition of deferred tax assets/
liabilities is based upon whether it is more
likely than not that sufficient and suitable
taxable profits will be available in the future
against which the reversal of temporary
differences can be deducted. To determine the
future taxable profits, reference is made to the
latest available profit forecasts.
(vi) Provisions & Contingent Liabilities:
Provisions and liabilities are recognized in the
period when it becomes probable that there
will be a future outflow of funds resulting from
past operations or events that can reasonably
be estimated. The timing of recognition
requires application of judgement to existing
facts and circumstances, which may be subject
to change. The amounts are determined by
discounting 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.
In the normal course of business, contingent
liabilities may arise from litigation and
other claims against the Company. Potential
liabilities that are possible but not probable of
crystallising or are very difficult to quantify
reliably are treated as contingent liabilities.
Such liabilities are disclosed in the notes but
are not recognized.
(vii) Financial Instruments:
When the fair values of financial assets and
financial liabilities recorded in the balance
sheet cannot be measured based on quoted
prices in active markets, their fair value is
measured using valuation techniques including
the DCF model. The inputs to these models
are taken from observable markets where
possible, but where this is not feasible, a
degree of judgement is required in establishing
fair values. Judgements include considerations
of inputs such as liquidity risk, credit risk and
volatility. Changes in assumptions about these
factors could affect the reported fair value of
financial instruments. See Note 32 (VII) &
(VIII) for further disclosures.
(viii) Allowance for uncollected accounts
receivable and advances
Trade receivables do not carry any interest
and are stated at their normal value as reduced
by appropriate allowances for estimated
irrecoverable amounts. Individual trade
receivables are written off when management
seems them not collectible. Impairment is
made on the expected credit losses, which are
the present value of the cash shortfall over the
expected life of the financial assets.
The impairment provisions for financial assets
are based on assumption about risk of default
and expected loss rates. Judgement in making
these assumption and selecting the inputs to
the impairment calculation are based on past
history, existing market condition as well as
forward looking estimates at the end of each
reporting period.
(ix) Impairment reviews
An impairment exists when the carrying value
of an asset or cash generating unit (âCGUâ)
exceeds its recoverable amount. Recoverable
amount is the higher of its fair value less costs
to sell and its value in use. The value in use
calculation is based on a discounted cash
flow model. In calculating the value in use,
certain assumptions are required to be made in
respect of highly uncertain matters, including
managementâs expectations of growth in
EBITDA, long term growth rates; and the
selection of discount rates to reflect the risks
involved.
The Ministry of Corporate Affairs (âMCAâ)
notifies new standards or amendment to the existing
standards under Companies (Indian Accounting
Standards) Rules, 2015 as issued and amended
from time to time. For the year ended March
31, 2025, MCA has notified Ind AS - 21 âThe
Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Ratesâ,
which introduces refinements to the definition of
exchangeable currency and the methodology for
estimating spot rates. Corresponding changes have
also been made in Ind AS 101 âFirst-time Adoption
of Indian Accounting Standardsâ, applicable to the
Company w.e.f. May 7, 2025. The Company has
reviewed the new pronouncements based on its
evaluation it has determined that it does not have any
significant impact in its financial statements.
Short term fixed deposits are varying between three months and twelve months, depending on the immediate cash requirements and
earn interest at the respective short term deposit rate. Interest rate is between 6.8% - 7.40%.
For the purposes of the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and in banks, net of outstanding
bank overdrafts. Cash and cash equivalents at the end of the reporting period as shown in the statement of cash flows can be
reconciled to the related items in the balance sheet as above.
The Company has obtained overdraft facilities of Rs. 245.93 Lakhs against the bank deposits issued by bank. The Company has not
utilised the said credit facilities any time during the year and prior year and hence, none of the bank deposits have been lien marked
by any bank(except as stated in Note 12) for the said credit facility.
Persuant to the amalgamation in the earlier years, Capital Reserve, Capital Redemption Reserve and Securities premium have been
incorporated in the Company. This reserves will be utilised in accordance with the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013.
General Reserves is created pursuant to the scheme of amalgamation and transfer profits from Retained earnings for appropriation
purpose. This reserve will be utilised in accordance with the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013.
The Company has elected to recognise changes in the fair value of certain investments in equity securities and changes in actuarial
gains and losses on re-measurement of defined benefit plan.
B. Details of the carrying amount of Right to use assets and movement during the year is disclosed under Note 3(B).
C. Maturity analysis of the lease liability are disclosed in Note 32(VII)(C).
D. The effective interest rate for lease liabilities is 7.30 % with maturity between 3 to 5 years.
III. Employee Benefits :
The Company offers its employees defined contribution plans in the form of Provident Fund (PF) and Superannuation
with the government and certain state plans such as Employeesâ State Insurance (ESI). PF cover substantially all regular
employees and the Superannuation plan covers mainly executive directors. Contributions are made to the Governmentâs
administered funds. While both the employees and the Company pay predetermined contributions into the Provident Fund
and the ESI Scheme, and contributions into the Superannuation plan is made only by the Company. The contributions are
normally based on a certain proportion of the employeeâs salary.
(a) Contributions to Provident Fund for employees at the rate of 12% p.a. of basic salary (as per regulations), are made
to registered Provident Fund administered by the government.
In respect of Gratuity, a defined benefit plan, is governed by the Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972. Under the Gratuity Act,
employees are entitled to specific benefit at the time of retirement or termination of the employment or on completion
of five years or death while in employment. The level of benefit provided depends on the memberâs length of service
and salary at the time of retirement/termination age. Provision for gratuity is based on actuarial valuation done by an
independent actuary as at the year end.
The following table sets out the status of the gratuity plan and the amounts recognised in the Companyâs financial
statements as at March 31, 2025:
Gratuity is a defined benefit plan and Company is exposed to the following Risks:
Interest rate risk: A fall in the discount rate which is linked to the G.Sec. Rate will increase the present value of
the liability requiring higher provision.
Salary Risk: The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated by reference to the future salaries of
members. As such, an increase in the salary of the members more than assumed level will increase the plan''s liability.
Asset Liability Matching (ALM) Risk: The plan faces the ALM risk as to the matching cash flow. Entity has to
manage pay out based on pay as you go basis from own fund.
Mortality Risk: Since the benefits under the plan is not payable for life time and payable till retirement age only,
plan does not have any longevity risk.
The operations of Textile Division (âDivisionâ) of the Company was under suspension. On April 15, 2025,
considering the outlook and scenario of the Textile business, the Board of Directors have decided to close down
the Division, subject to approval of Government Authorities. Due to this development, which significantly
reduces the future tenure of eligible members compared to March 31, 2024, we have recorded a curtailment gain
for the reporting period.
Furthermore, in presenting the above sensitivity analysis, the present value of the defined benefit obligation has
been calculated using the projected unit credit method at the end of the reporting period, which is the same method
as applied in calculating the projected benefit obligation as recognized in the balance sheet.
There was no change in the method and assumptions used in preparing the sensitivity analysis as compared to prior year.
C. Compensated Absences :
The Companyâs employees are entitled for compensated absences which are allowed to be accumulated and encashed as
per the Companyâs rule. The liability of compensated absences, which is non-funded, has been provided based on report
of independent actuary using âProjected Unit Credit Methodâ.
The obligation for compensated absences (other than sick leaves) (non-funded) is recognized using the projected unit
credit method and accordingly the long-term paid absence has been valued. The Liability towards leave encashment for
the year ended March 31, 2025 as per actuarial valuation is Rs. 66.46 lakhs (P.Y Rs. 108.43 lakhs).
The Company has made provision for sick leave based on the expected utilisation of leaves as at the year ended March
31, 2025 of Rs. 3.36 Lakhs (P.Y.Rs. 4.59 Lakhs). The total leave provision as at the year ended March 31, 2025 stands at
Rs. 69.82 lakhs (P.Y. Rs. 113.02 lakhs).
a. The above figures are exclusive of GST wherever applicable.
b. The amount outstanding are unsecured and will be settled in cash or receipt of goods or services. No guarantee
have been given. No expense has been recognized in the current period or prior years for bad or doubtful debts in
respect of the amounts owed by related parties.
c. The remuneration of the directors and key management personnel is determined by the remuneration committee
having regard to the performance of individual and market trends.
d. Key Management Personnel (KMP) who are under the employment of the Company are entitled to post employment
benefits and other long term employee benefits recognised as per Ind AS 19 - âEmployee Benefitsâ in the financial
statements. As these employee benefits are provided on the basis of actuarial valuation, for the Company as a
whole, hence the details in respect of long term benefits to KMP and their relatives are not disclosed. Further there
is no Share-based payments to Key Management Personnel of Company.
The Company''s objective for capital management is to maximise shareholder value, safeguard business continuity and
support growth of the Company. Capital includes, Equity Capital, Securities Premium, and other reserves and surplus,
attributable to the equity shareholders of the Company. The Company determines the capital requirement based on
annual plans and long term and strategic investment and capital expenditure plans. The funding requirements are met
through mix of equity, operating cash flows generated and debt. The operating management, supervised by the Board of
Directors of the Company regularly monitors its key gearing ratio and other financial parameters and takes corrective
actions wherever necessary. The Company is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements.
VII. Financial Risk Management
Companyâs Board of Directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the Companyâs risk
management framework. Management has identified the following risk.
⢠Credit Risk
⢠Market Risk
⢠Liquidity Risk
⢠Currency Risk
Companyâs Audit Committee oversees how Management monitors compliance with the Companyâs risk management
policies and procedures, and reviews the adequacy of the risk management framework in relation to the risks faced by
the Company.
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss arising from counter party failure to repay according to the contractual
terms or obligations. Credit risk encompasses of both, the direct risk of default and the risk of deterioration of
creditworthiness as well as concentration of risks. Before accepting any new customer, the Company evaluates the
credit worthiness of the potentional customers based on external inquiries as deemed appropriate. The Company
only deals with parties which has good credit ratings / worthiness based on Companyâs internal assessment. Credit
risk is controlled by analysing credit limits and creditworthiness of customers on a continuous basis to whom the
credit has been granted after necessary approvals for credit. The Company has not acquired any credit impaired
asset. There was no modification in any financial assets.
Customer credit is managed by each business division subject to the Companyâs established policy procedures
and control related to customer credit risk management.
Export customers are mainly against Letter of Credit. Each outstanding customer receivables are regularly
monitored and if outstanding is above due date the further shipments are controlled and can only be released
if there is a proper justification.
Credit risk on trade receivables and contract assets are managed by each business unit subject to the Companyâs
established policy, procedures and control relating to customer credit risk management. Credit quality of a
customer is assessed and individual credit limits are defined in accordance with this assessment. Moreover,
given the diverse nature of the Companyâs businesses, trade receivables and contract assets are spread over a
number of customers with no significant concentration of credit risk. No single customer accounted for 10%
or more of the trade receivables and contracted assets in any of the years presented.
The Company evaluates the concentration of risk with respect to trade receivables as low, as its customers
are located in several jurisdictions and industries and operate in largely independent markets and their credit
worthiness are monitored at periodical intervals. The maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date
is the carrying value of each class of financial assets.
The Company has written off trade receivables amounting to Rs. Nil during the year (March 31, 2024 Rs.
25.98 lakhs) as there was no reasonable expectations of recovery and were outstanding for more than 720
days from becoming due.
Credit risk from balances with banks is in accordance with the Company policy. Investment of surplus funds
are made only in approved Mutual Funds or bank deposits. The other financial assets are from various forum
of Government authorities and are released by Government authorities on completion of relevant terms and
conditions for the release of outstanding.
Market risk is the risk of loss of future earnings, fair values or future cash flows that may result from adverse changes
in market rates and prices (such as interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and commodity prices) or in the
price of market risk-sensitive instruments as a result of such adverse changes in market rates and prices. Market risk is
attributable to all market risk-sensitive financial instruments, all foreign currency receivables and payables and all short
term and long-term debt. The Company is exposed to market risk, primarily related to foreign exchange rate risk, interest
rate risk and commodity price risk. Thus, the Companyâs exposure to market risk is a function of investment activities
and revenue generating and operating activities in foreign currencies.
The Company has designed risk management frame work to control various risks effectively to achieve the business
objectives. This includes identification of risk, its assessment, control and monitoring at timely intervals.
The sensitivity analyses in the following sections relates to the outstanding balance as at March 31, 2025 and March 31,
2024.
The sensitivity analysis have been prepared on the basis that the proportion of financial instruments in foreign currencies
are all constant in place at March 31, 2025. The sensitivity of the relevant profit or loss item is the effect of the assumed
changes in respective market risks. This is based on the financial assets and financial liabilities held at March 31, 2025
and March 31, 2024.
The Companyâs investments are primarily in fixed rate interest bearing investments. Hence, the Company is not
significantly exposed to interest rate risk.
(ii) Foreign Currency risk:
The Company is also exposed to foreign currency risk on certain transactions that are denominated in a currency
other than the Companyâs functional currency; hence exposures to exchange rate fluctuations arise. The risk is that
the functional currency value of cash flows will vary as a result of movements in exchange rates. The Companyâs
foreign exchange risk arises from foreign currency revenues and expenses, (primarily in US Dollars and Euros). As
a result, if the value of the Indian rupee appreciates relative to these foreign currencies, the Companyâs revenues
and expenses measured in Indian rupees may decrease or increase and vice-versa. The exchange rate between
the Indian rupee and these foreign currencies have changed substantially in recent periods and may continue to
fluctuate substantially in the future.
Foreign Currency Sensitivity
The following tables demonstrate the sensitivity to a reasonably possible change in USD and EUR exchange
rates, with all other variables held constant. The impact on the Companyâs profit before tax is due to changes in
the fair value of monetary assets and liabilities. The Company evaluates exchange rate exposure arising from
foreign currency transactions. The Company follows established risk management policies and standard operating
procedures. The Companyâs exposure to foreign currency changes for all other currencies is not material.
(i) Liquidity risk management
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company may not be able to meet its present and future cash and collateral
obligations without incurring unacceptable losses. The Companyâs objective is to, at all times maintain optimum
levels of liquidity to meet its cash and collateral requirements. The Company closely monitors its liquidity position
and deploys a robust cash management system. It maintains adequate sources of financing including bilateral
loans, debt, and overdraft from banks at an optimised cost. Working capital requirements are adequately addressed
by internally generated funds. Trade receivables are kept within manageable levels. Further, the Company has an
undrawn balance of Rs. 245.93 Lakhs against the overdraft facility sanctioned by the bank.
(ii) Maturities of financial liabilities
The following tables detail the Company''s remaining contractual maturity for its non-derivative financial liabilities
with agreed repayment periods. The tables have been drawn up based on the undiscounted cash flows of financial
liabilities based on the earliest date on which the Company can be required to pay. The tables include both interest
and principal cash flows. The contractual maturity is based on the earliest date on which the Company may be
required to pay.
The significant accounting policies, including the criteria of recognition, the basis of measurement and the basis on
which income and expenses are recognised, in respect of each class of financial asset, financial liability, and equity
instrument are disclosed in note 2.8 of the Ind AS financial statement.
Carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables and trade payable as at March 31, 2025 and
March 31, 2024 approximate the fair value because of their short term nature. Difference between the carrying
amount and fair values of other financial liabilities subsequently measured at amortized cost is not significant in
each of the yearâs presented.
The fair value of the financial assets and liabilities are included at the amount at which the instrument could be
exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale. The following
methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair values:
(i) Receivables are evaluated by the Company based on parameters such as interest rates and individual credit
worthiness of the customer. Based on this evaluation, allowances are taken into account for the expected
credit losses of these receivables.
(ii) The fair value of financial liabilities, security deposit, as well as other financial liabilities is estimated
by discounting future cash flows using rates currently available for debt on similar terms, credit risk and
remaining maturities.
Fair Value Hierarchy
The fair value hierarchy is based on inputs to valuation techniques that are used to measure fair value that are
either observable or unobservable and consist of the following three levels:
Level 1: Inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.
Level 2: Inputs are other than quoted prices included within level 1 that are observable for the asset or
liability either directly (i.e. prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices).
Level 3: Inputs are based non observable market data. Fair value is determined in whole or in part using a
valuation model based on assumptions that are neither supported by prices from observable current market
transactions in the same instrument nor are they based on available market data.
The following table summarizes financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis and
financial assets that are not measured on fair value on recurring basis (but fair value disclosures are required).
The operations of Textile Division (âDivisionâ) of the Company was under suspension. On April 15, 2025, considering
the outlook and scenario of the Textile business, the Board of Directors have decided to close down the Division,
subject to approval of Government Authorities.
As on March 31, 2025, Textile Division has the liabilities amounting to Rs. 931.68 lakhs and carrying value of the
assets of Rs. 1114.67 lakhs. There is a contingent liability of Rs. 253.77 lakhs in respect of the Division. As it is non
adjusting event, it has not been considered as Discontinued Operations as on March 31, 2025. An estimated adverse
impact on assets and liabilities (including workersâ liabilities) of this Division has been recognised in the Financial
Statements for the year ended March 31, 2025. The Company has other operations which is continued to be pursued
by the management.
Note:
The amounts shown above represents the best possible estimates arrived at on the basis of available information.
The uncertainties are dependent on the outcome of the different legal processes. The timing of future cash flows will
be determinable only on receipt of judgments / decisions pending with various forums/authorities. The Company
does not expect any reimbursements against the above.
XII In respect of a joint property development transaction of earlier year, which was subject matter of arbitration award, an
appeal is filed before the division bench of Honâble Bombay High Court by both the parties against decision of single
bench of Honâble Bombay High Court and the same is pending as on date. The Company has already made provision
of Rs.63.98 lakhs in terms of arbitration award in the FY 2016-17 against the claim of Rs.1597.39 lakhs plus interest. In
view of management no further liability is expected.

Provisions (legal and constructive) are
recognised when the Company has a present
obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of
a past event, it is probable that the Company
will be required to settle the obligation, and a
reliable estimate can be made of the amount of
the obligation.
The amount recognised as a provision is the
best estimate of the consideration required to
settle the present obligation at the end of the
reporting period, taking into account the risks
and uncertainties surrounding the obligation.
When a provision is measured using the cash
flows estimated to settle the present obligation,
its carrying amount is the present value of those
cash flows (when the effect of the time value of
money is material).
When some or all of the economic benefits
required to settle a provision are expected to
be recovered from a third party, a receivable is
recognised as an asset if it is virtually certain that
reimbursement will be received and the amount
of the receivable can be measured reliably.
If the Company has a contract that is onerous,
the present obligation under the contract is
recognised and measured as a provision.
However, before a separate provision for an
onerous contract is established, the Company
recognises any impairment loss that has occurred
on assets dedicated to that contract
An onerous contract is a contract under which
the unavoidable costs (i.e., the costs that the
Company cannot avoid because it has the
contract) of meeting the obligations under the
contract exceed the economic benefits expected
to be received under it. The unavoidable costs
under a contract reflect the least net cost of
exiting from the contract, which is the lower of
the cost of fulfilling it and any compensation or
penalties arising from failure to fulfil it.
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.
Commitments are future liabilities for
contractual expenditure. The commitments are
classified and disclosed as follows:
(a) The estimated amount of contracts
remaining to be executed on capital
account and not provided for; and
(b) Other non-cancellable commitments,
if any, to the extent they are considered
material and relevant in the opinion of
the Management.
equity holders:
The Company recognises a liability to make
cash or non-cash distributions to equity holders
when the distribution is authorised, and the
distribution is no longer at the discretion of
the Company. As per the corporate laws, a
distribution is authorised when it is approved
by the shareholders. A corresponding amount is
recognised directly in equity.
Non-cash distributions are measured at the fair
value of the assets to be distributed with fair
value re-measurement recognised directly in
equity.
Upon distribution of non-cash assets, any
difference between the carrying amount of the
liability and the carrying amount of the assets
distributed is recognised in the statement of
profit and loss.
(B) Significant Accounting Judgements, Estimates
and Assumptions:
The preparation of the Companyâs financial
statements requires management to makejudgements,
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities,
and the Company disclosures, and the disclosure of
contingent liabilities. Management believes that the
estimates used in the preparation of the financial
statements are prudent and reasonable. Uncertainty
about these assumptions and estimates could result
in outcomes that require a material adjustment to the
carrying amount of assets or liabilities affected in
future periods. Difference between actual results and
estimates are recognised in the periods in which the
results are known / materialised.
The key assumptions concerning the future and
other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the
reporting date, that have a significant risk of causing
a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of
assets and liabilities within the next financial year,
are described below. The Company has based its
assumptions and estimates on parameters available
when the financial statements were prepared.
Existing circumstances and assumptions about
future developments, however, may change due to
market changes or circumstances arising that are
beyond the control of the Company. Such changes
are reflected in the assumptions when they occur.
In the process of applying the Companyâs accounting
policies, management has made the following
judgements, which have the most significant effect on
the amounts recognised in the financial statements:
(i) Useful life of Property, Plant and
Equipment:
Property, Plant and Equipment represent a
significant proportion of the asset base of the
Company. The charge in respect of periodic
depreciation is derived after determining an
estimate of an assetâs expected useful life,
its expected usage pattern and the expected
residual value at the end of its life. The
useful lives, usage pattern and residual values
of Company''s assets are determined by
management at the time the asset is acquired
and reviewed periodically, including at each
financial year end. The lives are based on
historical experience with similar assets as
well as anticipation of future events, which
may impact their life, such as changes in
technology etc.
(ii) Inventories:
The Company writes down inventories to
net realisable value based on an estimate of
the realisability of inventories. Write downs
on inventories are recorded where events
or changes in circumstances indicate that
the carrying value may not be realised. The
identification of write-downs requires the use
of estimates of net selling prices of the down¬
graded inventories. Where the expectation
is different from the original estimate, such
difference will impact the carrying value of
inventories and write-downs of inventories in
the periods in which such estimate has been
changed.
(iii) Defined Benefit Obligation:
The Companyâs obligation on account
of gratuity and compensated absences is
determined based on actuarial valuations. An
actuarial valuation involves making various
assumptions that may differ from actual
developments in the future. These include
the determination of the discount rate, future
salary increases and mortality rates. Due to the
complexities involved in the valuation and its
long-term nature, these liabilities are highly
sensitive to changes in these assumptions. All
assumptions are reviewed at each reporting
date.
The parameter most subject to change is the
discount rate. In determining the appropriate
discount rate, the management considers
the interest rates of government bonds in
currencies consistent with the currencies of the
post-employment benefit obligation.
The mortality rate is based on publicly available
mortality tables. Those mortality tables tend
to change only at interval in response to
demographic changes. Future salary increases
and gratuity increases are based on expected
future inflation rates.
Further details about gratuity obligations are
given in Note 33 (III).
(iv) Current Tax expense and Deferred Tax:
The Companyâs tax jurisdiction is India.
Significant judgements 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.
A tax assessement can involve complex issues,
which can only be resolved over extended
time periods. The recognisation of taxes that
are subject to certain legal or economic limits
or uncertainties is assessed individually by
the managment based on the specific facts and
circumstances.
The recognition of deferred tax assets/
liabilities is based upon whether it is more
likely than not that sufficient and suitable
taxable profits will be available in the future
against which the reversal of temporary
differences can be deducted. To determine the
future taxable profits, reference is made to the
latest available profit forecasts.
(vi) Provisions & Contingent Liabilities:
Provisions and liabilities are recognized in the
period when it becomes probable that there
will be a future outflow of funds resulting from
past operations or events that can reasonably
be estimated. The timing of recognition
requires application of judgement to existing
facts and circumstances, which may be subject
to change. The amounts are determined by
discounting 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.
In the normal course of business, contingent
liabilities may arise from litigation and
other claims against the Company. Potential
liabilities that are possible but not probable of
crystallising or are very difficult to quantify
reliably are treated as contingent liabilities.
Such liabilities are disclosed in the notes but
are not recognized.
(vii) Financial Instruments:
When the fair values of financial assets and
financial liabilities recorded in the balance
sheet cannot be measured based on quoted
prices in active markets, their fair value is
measured using valuation techniques including
the DCF model. The inputs to these models
are taken from observable markets where
possible, but where this is not feasible, a
degree of judgement is required in establishing
fair values. Judgements include considerations
of inputs such as liquidity risk, credit risk and
volatility. Changes in assumptions about these
factors could affect the reported fair value of
financial instruments. See Note 33 (VII) &
(VIII) for further disclosures.
(viii) Allowance for uncollected accounts
receivable and advances
Trade receivables do not carry any interest
and are stated at their normal value as reduced
by appropriate allowances for estimated
irrecoverable amounts. Individual trade
receivables are written off when management
seems them not collectible. Impairment is
made on the expected credit losses, which are
the present value of the cash shortfall over the
expected life of the financial assets.
The impairment provisions for financial assets
are based on assumption about risk of default
and expected loss rates. Judgement in making
these assumption and selecting the inputs to
the impairment calculation are based on past
history, existing market condition as well as
forward looking estimates at the end of each
reporting period.
An impairment exists when the carrying value
of an asset or cash generating unit (âCGUâ)
exceeds its recoverable amount. Recoverable
amount is the higher of its fair value less costs
to sell and its value in use. The value in use
calculation is based on a discounted cash
flow model. In calculating the value in use,
certain assumptions are required to be made in
respect of highly uncertain matters, including
managementâs expectations of growth in
EBITDA, long term growth rates; and the
selection of discount rates to reflect the risks
involved.
(C) Application of new Revised Ind AS
Ministry of Corporate Affairs (âMCAâ) notifies new
standards or amendments to the existing standards
under Companies (Indian Accounting Standards)
Rules as issued from time to time. For the year ended
March 31, 2024, MCA has not notified any new
standards or amendments to the existing standards
applicable to the Company.
During the year ended March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023, no impairment indicators existed for any of its Cash Generating
Unit (CGU) and accordingly no provision for impairment has been recognised, except certain specific assets for which Rs.
22.48 lakhs have been provided as impairment loss during the year.
Refer Note no. 33(IX) for disclosure of contractual commitments for the acquisition of PPE.
a. Refer Note no. 33(XIX) for Assets held for Sale.
b. The Company has received an advance of Rs. 33.90 lakhs for transfer of its rights in the certain portion of the lease land
held by it. The portion of the lease land for which advance have been received are shown as Asset held for disposal. The
Deeds of Assignment for the same has been registered on May 6, 2024.
During the year ended March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023, there is no adjustments due to Revaluation of PPE by the
Company.
No borrowing costs are capitalised on property, plant and equipment.
Title deeds of Leasehold land are in the name of the Company.
III. Employee Benefits :
A. Defined Contribution Plans:
The Company offers its employees defined contribution plans in the form of Provident Fund (PF) and Superannuation
with the government and certain state plans such as Employeesâ State Insurance (ESI). PF cover substantially all regular
employees and the Superannuation plan covers mainly executive directors. Contributions are made to the Governmentâs
administered funds. While both the employees and the Company pay predetermined contributions into the Provident Fund
and the ESI Scheme, and contributions into the Superannuation plan is made only by the Company. The contributions are
normally based on a certain proportion of the employeeâs salary.
(a) Contributions to Provident Fund for employees at the rate of 12% p.a. of basic salary (as per regulations), are made
to registered Provident Fund administered by the government.
(b) Contributions are made to Superannuation plan at the rate of 15% p.a. of basic salary, up to a maximum limit of Rs.
1 lakh p.a. per employee. The obligation of the Company is Limited to the amount contributed and it has no further
contractual or constructive obligation.
Gratuity is a defined benefit plan and Company is exposed to the following Risks:
Interest rate risk: A fall in the discount rate which is linked to the G.Sec. Rate will increase the present value of
the liability requiring higher provision.
Salary Risk: The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated by reference to the future salaries of
members. As such, an increase in the salary of the members more than assumed level will increase the plan''s liability.
Asset Liability Matching (ALM) Risk: The plan faces the ALM risk as to the matching cash flow entity has to
manage pay out based on pay as you go basis from own fund.
Mortality Risk: Since the benefits under the plan is not payable for life time and payable till retirement age only,
plan does not have any longevity risk.
The Companyâs employees are entitled for compensated absences which are allowed to be accumulated and encashed as
per the Companyâs rule. The liability of compensated absences, which is non-funded, has been provided based on report
of independent actuary using âProjected Unit Credit Methodâ.
The obligation for compensated absences (other than sick leaves) (non-funded) is recognized using the projected unit
credit method and accordingly the long-term paid absence has been valued. The Liability towards leave encashment for
the year ended March 31, 2024 as per actuarial valuation is Rs. 108.43 lakhs (P.Y. Rs. 104.77 lakhs).
The Company has made provision for sick leave based on the expected utilisation of leaves as at the year ended March
31, 2024 of Rs. 4.59 Lakhs (P.Y. Rs. 5.11 Lakhs). The total leave provision as at the year ended March 31, 2024 stands at
Rs. 113.02 lakhs (P.Y. Rs. 109.88 lakhs).
a. The above figures are exclusive of GST wherever applicable.
b. The amount outstanding are unsecured and will be settled in cash or receipt of goods or services. No guarantee
have been given. No expense has been recognized in the current period or prior years for bad or doubtful debts in
respect of the amounts owed by related parties.
c. The remuneration of the directors and key management personnel is determined by the remuneration committee
having regard to the performance of individual and market trends.
d. Key Management Personnel (KMP) who are under the employment of the Company are entitled to post employment
benefits and other long term employee benefits recognised as per Ind AS 19 - âEmployee Benefitsâ in the financial
statements. As these employee benefits are provided on the basis of actuarial valuation, for the Company as a
whole, hence the details in respect of long term benefits to KMP and their relatives are not disclosed. Further there
is no Share-based payments to Key Management Personnel of Company.
The Company''s objective for capital management is to maximise shareholder value, safeguard business continuity and
support growth of the Company. Capital includes, Equity Capital, Securities Premium, and other reserves and surplus,
attributable to the equity shareholders of the Company. The Company determines the capital requirement based on
annual plans and long term and strategic investment and capital expenditure plans. The funding requirements are met
through mix of equity, operating cash flows generated and debt. The operating management, supervised by the Board of
Directors of the Company regularly monitors its key gearing ratio and other financial parameters and takes corrective
actions wherever necessary. The Company is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements.
Gearing Ratio : As the Company does not have any debt, the gearing Ratio has not been given.
VII. Financial Risk Management
Companyâs Board of Directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the Companyâs risk
management framework. Management has identified the following risk.
⢠Credit Risk
⢠Market Risk
⢠Liquidity Risk
⢠Currency Risk
Companyâs Audit Committee oversees how Management monitors compliance with the Companyâs risk management
policies and procedures, and reviews the adequacy of the risk management framework in relation to the risks faced by
the Company.
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss arising from counter party failure to repay according to the contractual
terms or obligations. Credit risk encompasses of both, the direct risk of default and the risk of deterioration of
creditworthiness as well as concentration of risks. Before accepting any new customer, the Company evaluates the
credit worthiness of the potentional customers based on external inquiries as deemed appropriate. The Company
only deals with parties which has good credit ratings / worthiness based on Companyâs internal assessment. Credit
risk is controlled by analysing credit limits and creditworthiness of customers on a continuous basis to whom the
credit has been granted after necessary approvals for credit. The Company has not acquired any credit impaired
asset. There was no modification in any financial assets.
Customer credit is managed by each business division subject to the Companyâs established policy procedures
and control related to customer credit risk management.
Export customers are mainly against Letter of Credit. Each outstanding customer receivables are regularly
monitored and if outstanding is above due date the further shipments are controlled and can only be released
if there is a proper justification.
Credit risk on trade receivables and contract assets are managed by each business unit subject to the Companyâs
established policy, procedures and control relating to customer credit risk management. Credit quality of a
customer is assessed and individual credit limits are defined in accordance with this assessment. Moreover,
given the diverse nature of the Companyâs businesses, trade receivables and contract assets are spread over a
number of customers with no significant concentration of credit risk. No single customer accounted for 10%
or more of the trade receivables and contracted assets in any of the years presented.
The Company evaluates the concentration of risk with respect to trade receivables as low, as its customers
are located in several jurisdictions and industries and operate in largely independent markets and their credit
worthiness are monitored at periodical intervals. The maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date
is the carrying value of each class of financial assets.
The Company has written off trade receivables amounting to Rs. 25.98 Lakhs during the year (March 31,
2023 Rs. 7.75 lakhs) as there was no reasonable expectations of recovery and were outstanding for more than
720 days from becoming due.
Credit risk from balances with banks is in accordance with the Company policy. Investment of surplus funds
are made only in approved Mutual Funds or bank deposits. The other financial assets are from various forum
of Government authorities and are released by Government authorities on completion of relevant terms and
conditions for the release of outstanding.
Market risk is the risk of loss of future earnings, fair values or future cash flows that may result from adverse changes
in market rates and prices (such as interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and commodity prices) or in the
price of market risk-sensitive instruments as a result of such adverse changes in market rates and prices. Market risk is
attributable to all market risk-sensitive financial instruments, all foreign currency receivables and payables and all short
term and long-term debt. The Company is exposed to market risk, primarily related to foreign exchange rate risk, interest
rate risk and commodity price risk. Thus, the Companyâs exposure to market risk is a function of investment activities
and revenue generating and operating activities in foreign currencies.
The Company has designed risk management frame work to control various risks effectively to achieve the business
objectives. This includes identification of risk, its assessment, control and monitoring at timely intervals.
The sensitivity analyses in the following sections relates to the outstanding balance as at March 31, 2024 and March 31,
2023.
The sensitivity analyses have been prepared on the basis that the proportion of financial instruments in foreign currencies
are all constant in place at March 31, 2024. The sensitivity of the relevant profit or loss item is the effect of the assumed
changes in respective market risks. This is based on the financial assets and financial liabilities held at March 31, 2024
and March 31, 2023.
(i) Interest Rate Risk:
The Companyâs investments are primarily in fixed rate interest bearing investments. Hence, the Company is not
significantly exposed to interest rate risk.
(ii) Foreign Currency risk:
The Company is also exposed to foreign currency risk on certain transactions that are denominated in a currency
other than the Companyâs functional currency; hence exposures to exchange rate fluctuations arise. The risk is that
the functional currency value of cash flows will vary as a result of movements in exchange rates. The Companyâs
foreign exchange risk arises from foreign currency revenues and expenses, (primarily in US Dollars and Euros). As
a result, if the value of the Indian rupee appreciates relative to these foreign currencies, the Companyâs revenues
and expenses measured in Indian rupees may decrease or increase and vice-versa. The exchange rate between
the Indian rupee and these foreign currencies have changed substantially in recent periods and may continue to
fluctuate substantially in the future.
Foreign Currency Sensitivity
The following tables demonstrate the sensitivity to a reasonably possible change in USD and EUR exchange
rates, with all other variables held constant. The impact on the Companyâs profit before tax is due to changes in
the fair value of monetary assets and liabilities. The Company evaluates exchange rate exposure arising from
foreign currency transactions. The Company follows established risk management policies and standard operating
procedures. The Companyâs exposure to foreign currency changes for all other currencies is not material.
Exposure to market risk with respect to commodity prices primarily arises from the Companyâs purchases and
sales mainly of Fabric, Yarns, steel and other textile related products including the raw material components for
such Frabics, Yarns, etc, i.e Cotton. These are commodity products, whose prices fluctuate significantly over
short periods of time. The prices of the Companyâs raw materials generally fluctuate in line with commodity
cycles, although the prices of raw materials used in the Companyâs business are generally more volatile. Cost of
raw materials forms the largest portion of the Companyâs cost. Commodity price risk exposure is evaluated and
managed through operating procedures and sourcing policies wherever possible based on market condition.
The Company is exposed to mutual fund price risks arising from mutual fund investments. Mutual fund investments
are held for strategic rather than trading purposes. The Company does not actively trade these investments.
C Liquidity Risk
(i) Liquidity risk management
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company may not be able to meet its present and future cash and collateral
obligations without incurring unacceptable losses. The Companyâs objective is to, at all times maintain optimum
levels of liquidity to meet its cash and collateral requirements. The Company closely monitors its liquidity position
and deploys a robust cash management system. It maintains adequate sources of financing including bilateral
loans, debt, and overdraft from banks at an optimised cost. Working capital requirements are adequately addressed
by internally generated funds. Trade receivables are kept within manageable levels. Further, the Company has an
undrawn balance of Rs. 235.93 Lakhs against the overdraft facility sanctioned by the bank.
(ii) Maturities of financial liabilities
The following tables detail the Company''s remaining contractual maturity for its non-derivative financial liabilities
with agreed repayment periods. The tables have been drawn up based on the undiscounted cash flows of financial
liabilities based on the earliest date on which the Company can be required to pay. The tables include both interest
and principal cash flows. The contractual maturity is based on the earliest date on which the Company may be
required to pay.
Carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables and trade payable as at March 31, 2024 and
March 31, 2023 approximate the fair value because of their short term nature. Difference between the carrying
amount and fair values of other financial liabilities subsequently measured at amortized cost is not significant in
each of the yearâs presented.
The fair value of the financial assets and liabilities are included at the amount at which the instrument could be
exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale. The following
methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair values:
(i) Receivables are evaluated by the Company based on parameters such as interest rates and individual credit
worthiness of the customer. Based on this evaluation, allowances are taken into account for the expected
credit losses of these receivables.
(ii) The fair value of financial liabilities, security deposit, as well as other financial liabilities is estimated
by discounting future cash flows using rates currently available for debt on similar terms, credit risk and
remaining maturities.
Fair Value Hierarchy
The fair value hierarchy is based on inputs to valuation techniques that are used to measure fair value that are
either observable or unobservable and consist of the following three levels:
Level 1: Inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.
Level 2: Inputs are other than quoted prices included within level 1 that are observable for the asset or
liability either directly (i.e. prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices).
Level 3: Inputs are based non observable market data. Fair value is determined in whole or in part using a
valuation model based on assumptions that are neither supported by prices from observable current market
transactions in the same instrument nor are they based on available market data.
The following table summarizes financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis and
financial assets that are not measured on fair value on recurring basis (but fair value disclosures are required).
XI During lock down due to Covid-19, the textile factory was closed during the period April 1 to May 8 2020. The Company
has paid on account advances (subject to adjustment against wages) to workers for this closure period, which is equivalent
to about 50% of their wages. A final decision will be taken in this matter depending upon the negotiations with the Union.
In view of the management no further liability is estimated. (Refer Note 19)
XII The Company has initiated disciplinary action against certain employees, out of which some of the employees have been
terminated after following certain formal inquiries and procedures under the Industrial Dispute Act and some matters
are still under inquiry. The Company will make necessary provision of any liabilities that may arise on account of the
action initiated by it upon the outcome and completion of such inquiries and procedures. (Refer Note 19)
XIII The Memorandum of Settlement between Hindoostan Mills Limited and the Karad Taluka Girani Kamagar Sangh,
Karad (Sangh) expired on December 31, 2019. Pending settlement, provision on an estimated basis has been made by
the Company. (Refer Note 19)
XIV The Company had entered into an Agreement with a Property Developer (Developer) in 1993 pursuant to which the
development rights for construction of Residential Flats on the plot of Land belonging to the Company were transferred
for consideration comprising of monetary compensation and allotment of specified constructed area to the Company
subject to payment of the Cost of construction for such allotted area. (Refer Note 19)
The settlement of accounts between the Company and the Developer under the said Agreement had been a subject of
Arbitration since the year 2002 as there were claims and counter claims. The Company had provided Rs. 63.98 lakhs in
the Financial Statements for the year ended 31st March, 2017 as the sum payable to Caprihans in terms of the Arbitration
Award dated October 31, 2016. Thereafter, the said Caprihans challenged the said Arbitration Award before the Hon.
High Court at Mumbai, claiming Rs. 1597.39 lakhs and interest.
Since then, the Single Judge of the Hon. High Court at Mumbai decided the challenge filed by the said Caprihans vide
its judgment dated June 3, 2019 interalia holding that:-
(a) the majority award rejecting Caprihans claim for cost of construction at ? 3,100 per sq. ft. is set aside;
(b) the liability of the Company to pay interest on the unpaid cost of construction is subject matter of fresh Arbitration;
(c ) the cost of litigation claimed by the said Caprihans being discretionary, the decision of the Arbitrators rejecting the
same is not required to be interfered..
Against the said judgment of the Learned Single Judge of the Hon. High Court at Mumbai, the Company has filed
an appeal before the Division Bench of the Hon. High Court. The said Caprihans have also filed an appeal before
the Division Bench of the Hon. High Court challenging the judgment of the Learned Single Judge. The Appeals will
come up in due course for hearing. The Company is of the view that, at this juncture, since the matter is sub judice, the
provision of Rs. 63.98 lakhs will be adjusted in the year in which finality is reached. In view of the Company, no further
provision is required considering the merits.
A. Disputed Matters :

A. Defined Contribution Plans:

Contributions are made to provident fund for employees at the rate of 12% of basic salary as per regulations. The Contribution are made to registered provident fund administered by the government. The obligation of the Company is Limited to the amount contributed and it has no further contractual nor any constructive obligation. The expense recognized during the year towards defined contribution plan in Rs.010.23 lakhs( Previous year Rs.000.43 lakhs ).
B. Defined Benefit Plan
The company provides gratuity benefits to its employees as per the statute. Present value of gratuity obligation (Non-Funded) based on actuarial valuation done by an independent valuer using the Projected Unit Credit Method, which recognizes each period of service as giving rise to additional unit of employee benefit entitlement and measures each unit separately to build up the final obligation. The obligation for compensated absences (Non-funded) is recognized in the same manner as gratuity.
The estimates of rate of escalation in salary considered in actuarial valuation, takes into account inflation, seniority, promotion and other relevant factors including supply and demand in the employment market. The above information is extracted from the report obtained from Actuary.
B.6 There is no contribution under defined benefit plan in respect of Key Management Personnel.
B.7 Risks associated with defined benefit plan:
Gratuity is a defined benefit plan and company is exposed to the following Risks:
Interest rate risk: A fall in the discount rate which is linked to the Government Securities Rate will increase the present value of the liability requiring higher provision.
Salary Risk: The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated by reference to the future salaries of members. As such, an increase in the salary of the members more than assumed level will increase the planâs liability.
Asset Liability Matching (ALM) Risk: The plan faces the ALM risk as to the matching cash flow. Company has to manage payout based on pay as you go basis from our own funds.
Mortality Risk: Since the benefits under the plan is not payable for life time and payable till retirement age only, plan does not have any longevity risk.
B.9 Expected future benefit payments:
The following is the maturity profile of the benefit expected to be paid for each of the next five years and the aggregate five years thereafter:
The Sensitivity analysis has been determined based on reasonably possible changes of the respective assumptions occurring at the end of the reporting period, while holding all other assumptions constant.
The sensitivity analysis presented above may not be representative of the actual change in the projected benefit obligation as it is unlikely that the change in assumptions would occur in isolation of one another as some of the assumptions may be correlated.
Furthermore, in presenting the above sensitivity analysis, the present value of the projected benefit obligation has been calculated using the projected unit credit method at the end of the reporting period, which is the same method as applied in calculating the projected benefit obligation as recognised in the balance sheet.
There was no change in the methods and assumptions used in preparing the sensitivity analysis from prior years.
C. Other long-term benefits:
The obligation for leave benefits (non-funded) is also recognised using the projected unit credit method and accordingly the long-term paid absence has been valued. The Liability towards leave encashment for the year ended 31st March, 2018 as per actuarial valuation is Rs.96.65 lakhs ( P.Y.? 96.85 lakhs) (Including liability aggregating to Rs.07.58 lakhs in relation to employees who have resigned on or before 31st March, 2018, which is reflected under other financial liabilities pending full and final settlement of their account)
XIV. The balances relating to Sundry Debtors, Sundry Creditors and Loans and Advances as on 31st March, 2018 are subject to confirmation and adjustments, if any on reconciliation of accounts. Since the extent to which these balances are subject to confirmation is not ascertainable, the resultant impact of the same on the accounts cannot be ascertained and the same will be adjusted in the accounts in the year in which reconciliation is completed.
XV. Financial Risk Management
Financial risk management objectives and policies
The Companyâs financial risk management is an integral part of how to plan and execute its business strategies. The Companyâs financial risk management policy is set by the Board of Directors. Market risk is the risk of loss of future earnings, fair values or future cash flows that may result from a change in the price of a financial instrument. The value of a financial instrument may change as a result of changes in the interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, equity prices and other market changes that affect market risk sensitive instruments. Market risk is attributable to all market risk sensitive financial instruments including investments and deposits, foreign currency receivables, payables and loans and borrowings.
A. Interest rate risk:
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of the financial instruments will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. In order to optimize the Companyâs position with regards to interest income and interest expenses and to manage the interest rate risk, Board of Directors perform a comprehensive corporate interest rate risk management by balancing the proportion of fixed rate and floating rate financial instruments in its total portfolio. The Companyâs interest rate risk exposure is only for floating rate borrowings. For floating rate liabilities, the analysis is prepared assuming the amount of the liability outstanding at the end of the reporting period was outstanding for the whole year. A 50 basis point increase or decrease is used when reporting interest rate risk internally to key management personnel and represents managementâs assessment of the reasonably possible change in interest rates.
B. Market Risk- Foreign Currency risk:
The Company has international operations and portion of the business is transacted in USD/EURO and consequently the Company is exposed to foreign exchange risk through its sales to foreign customers and purchases of goods and purchase of services from overseas suppliers.
C. Equity Price Risk
The company does not have material investment in equity instruments and hence equity price risk does not materially affect the company.
D. Liquidity Risk
The principal sources of liquidity of the Company are cash and cash equivalents, borrowings and the cash flow that is generated from operations. The Company believes that current cash and cash equivalents, tied up borrowing lines and cash flow that is generated from operations is sufficient to meet its requirements. Accordingly, liquidity risk is perceived to be low. The following table shows the maturity analysis of financial liabilities of the Company based on contractually agreed undiscounted cash flows as at the Balance Sheet date:
XVI. Capital risk management (a) Risk Management
The Company aims to manage its capital efficiently so as to safeguard its ability to continue as a going concern and to optimise returns to its shareholders
The capital structure of the Company is based on managementâs judgment of the appropriate balance of key elements in order to meet its strategic and day-to-day needs. We consider the amount of capital in proportion to risk and manage the capital structure in light of changes in economic conditions and the risk characteristics of the underlying assets. In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may adjust the amount of dividends paid to shareholders, return capital to shareholders or issue new shares.
The Companyâs policy is to maintain a stable and strong capital structure with a focus on total equity so as to maintain investor, creditors and market confidence and to sustain future development and growth of its business. The Company will take appropriate steps in order to maintain, or if necessary adjust, its capital structure.
XVII. Financial Instrument:
The significant accounting policies, including the criteria of recognition, the basis of measurement and the basis on which income and expenses are recognised, in respect of each class of financial asset, financial liability, and equity instrument are disclosed in note 2.12 of the Ind AS financial statement.
(a) Financial assets and liabilities
The carrying value of financial instruments by categories as at 31st March, 2018 are as follows:
Carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, loans and trade payable as at 31st March, 2018, 31st March, 2017 and 1st April, 2016 approximate the fair value because of their short term nature. Difference between the carrying amount and fair values of other financial liabilities subsequently measured at amortized cost is not significant in each of the yearâs presented.
Fair Value Hierarchy
The fair value hierarchy is based on inputs to valuation techniques that are used to measure fair value that are either observable or unobservable and consist of the following three levels:
Level 1: Inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.
Level 2: Inputs are other than quoted prices included within level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability either directly (i.e. prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices).
Level 3: Inputs are not based on observable market data unobservable inputs. Fair value are determined in whole or in part using a valuation model based on assumptions that are neither supported by prices from observable current market transactions in the same instrument nor are they based on available market data.
The following table summarizes financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis and financial assets that are not measured on fair value on recurring basis (but fair value disclosures are required)
C. Material adjustments made during transition from previous GAAP to Ind AS
C.1 Proposed Dividend
Under the previous GAAP, dividend proposed by the board of directors after the balance sheet date but before the approval of the Financial Statements were considered as adjusting events and accordingly, provision for proposed dividend was recognised as a liability. Under Ind AS, such dividends are recognised when the same is approved by the Shareholders in the general meeting. Accordingly, the liability for proposed dividend as at 1st April, 2016 included under the Provisions has been reversed with corresponding adjustment to retained earnings. Consequently, the total equity has been increased by an equivalent amount.
C.2 Security Deposit at Fair Value
Under Indian GAAP, the deposits are valued at cost less provision for impairment. Ind AS requires certain categories of financial assets and liabilities to be measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method. Deposit is a Financial Asset as the lease agreement gives a contractual right to the company to receive cash. Deposit satisfies the contractual cash flow characteristic test and it also satisfies the business model test as there is intention of holding to collect contractual cash flows. Thus the deposits given for rentals have to be valued at amortized cost.
C.3 Bank Borrowings recorded at fair value as per EIR method
Ind AS 109 requires borrowings and financial liabilities to be carried at amortised cost. Accordingly, any transaction cost incurred towards origination of borrowings is to be deducted from the carrying amount of borrowings on initial recognition. These costs are recognised in the statement of profit and loss over the tenure of the borrowing as part of the interest expense by applying the EIR method. Under Ind AS, loans are valued at present value as against cost in the previous GAAP. The difference between the present value and cost is recognised in the opening retained earnings.
C.4 Depreciation on Investment Property
As per Ind AS 40, investment property is also subject to depreciation. The company did not provide depreciation upto 1st April, 2016 on investment property. Under Ind AS financials, the company has provided depreciation with retrospective effect.
C.5 Investments recorded at FVTPL
Investments in Debt Mutual Fund, i.e. Investment in HDFC MF and UTI MF, are recorded at FVTPL. In previous GAAP, the same was measured at cost.
C.6 Investments recorded at FVTOCI
Companyâs investment in Siemens Ltd was earlier recognised at cost under previous GAAP. Under Ind AS 109, the same is recognised as FVTOCI.
C.7 Provision for ECL on Financial Assets
As per Ind AS 109, the financial assets are subject to expected credit loss. Under previous GAAP, there was no such provision. In compliance with Ind AS 109, the company has made provision of ECL on Trade Receivables following simplified approach.
C.8 Deferred Tax Adjustments on Ind AS Adjustments
Under Previous GAAP, deferred tax was recognized based on the profit and loss method. Under Ind-AS 12, deferred tax is recognized based on the balance sheet method for all differences between the accounting and tax base. Consequentially, deferred tax has been recognised for the adjustments made on transition to Ind AS, wherever applicable.
C.9 Disclosures as required by Indian Accounting Standard (Ind-AS) 101 First Time Adoption Standard:
The Company has adopted Ind AS with effect from 1st April, 2017 with comparatives being restated. Accordingly the impact of transition has been provided in the Opening Retained Earnings as at 1st April, 2016 and all the periods presented have been restated accordingly.
D. Exemptions availed on first time adoption of Ind AS 101:
On first time adoption of Ind AS, Ind AS 101 allows certain exemptions from the retrospective application of certain requirements under Ind AS. The Company has availed the following exemptions:
a) Under Ind AS 109, at initial recognition of a financial asset, an entity may make an irrevocable election to present subsequent changes in the fair value of an investment in an equity instrument in other comprehensive income. Ind AS 101 allows such designation of previously recognized financial assets, as âfair value through other comprehensive incomeâ or âfair value through profit or lossâ on the basis of the facts and circumstances that existed at the date of transition to Ind AS.
Accordingly, the Company has designated its investments in certain equity instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income and fair value through profit or loss on the basis of the facts and circumstances that existed at the date of transition to Ind AS.
b) The Company has opted to continue with the carrying values measured under the previous GAAP, use that carrying value as the deemed cost for property, plant and equipment, intangible assets and Investment Property on the date of transition.
E. Mandatory Exemptions
The following mandatory exemptions have been applied in accordance with Ind AS 101 in preparing the financial statements:
a) Estimates:
(i) Impairment of financial assets based on the expected credit loss model; and
(ii) Investments in equity instruments carried as FVTPL or FVTOCI.
b) Classification and movement of financial assets and liabilities:
The Company has classified the financial assets and liabilities in accordance with Ind AS 109 on the basis of facts and circumstances that existed at the date on transition to Ind AS.
XIX. The Companyâs financial statements were authorized for issue in accordance with a resolution of the Board of Directors on 16th May, 2018 in accordance with the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013 and are subject to the approval of the shareholders at the Annual General Meeting.
XX. The figures in the financial statements are rounded off to the nearest lakhs and indicated in lakhs of Rupees.

Where the remaining useful life of an Asset is nil, the carrying amount of the Asset after retaining the residual value, as at 1st April, 2014 has been adjusted to the General Reserve. In other cases the carrying values have been depreciated over the remaining useful lives of the Assets and recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Since then, as per the amendment dated 20th August, 2014, the useful life specified in Part C- of Schedule II has been defined to mean that if the cost of a Part of Asset is significant to the total cost of the Assets and useful life of that part is different from the useful life of the remaining Assets, useful life of that significant part shall be determined separately and depreciated accordingly.

regarding their status under the Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises
Development Act,2006 and hence the disclosures relating to amount
unpaid as at the end of the year together with interest paid / payable
as required under the said Act have not been furnished and therefore
provision for interest,if any, on delayed payments, is not
ascertainable at this stage.
