8. LEASE ACCOUNTING

The Company recognizes, at inception of a contract a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified
asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration.

Company as a lessee

a) At the date of commencement of the lease, the Company recognizes a right-of-use ("ROU") asset representing its right
to use the underlying asset for the lease term and a lease liability for all lease arrangements in which it is a lessee except
for leases with a term of 12 months or less (short term leases) and leases for which the underlying assets is of low value.
For such short term and assets of low value leases, the Company recognizes the lease payment as an expense on a
straight-line basis over the term of the lease.

b) At commencement date the ROU asset is measured at cost. The cost of the ROU asset measured at inception shall
comprise of the amount of the initial measurement of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or
before the commencement date less any lease incentives received, plus any initial direct costs incurred. The ROU assets
are subsequently measured at cost less any accumulated depreciation, accumulated impairment losses, if any.

c) The ROU assets are depreciated using the straight-line method from the commencement date over the shorter of lease
term or useful life of ROU asset. The estimated useful lives of ROU assets are determined on the same basis as those of
PPE. Right-of-use assets are tested for impairment whenever there is any indication that their carrying amounts may not
be recoverable. Impairment loss, if any, is recognized in the statement of profit and loss.

d) At the commencement date, the Company measures the lease liability at the present value of the lease payments that
are not paid at that date. The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if not readily
determinable, using the Company''s incremental borrowing rate.

e) Lease liability and ROU asset are separately presented in the Balance Sheet and lease payments are classified as financing
cash flows. Short term lease payments and payments for leases of low value assets are classified as operating cash flows.

Company as a lessor

At the inception of the lease the Company classifies each of its leases as either an operating lease or a finance lease.

I. Finance Lease:

a) A lease that transfers substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of an underlying asset to the
Lessee is classified as a finance lease. Title may or may not eventually be transferred.

b) At commencement date, an amount equal to the net investment in the lease is presented as receivable. The interest
rate implicit in the lease is used to measure the value of net investment in the lease.

c) The finance income is recognized over the lease term in the statement of profit and loss account so as to reflect a
constant periodic rate of return on the net investment in the lease.

d) The de-recognition and impairment requirement of the underlying asset is tested as per Ind AS 109- Financial
instruments.

e) Any modifications in the lease are accounted as a separate lease when the recognition criteria specified in paragraph
79 of the standard are met.

II. Operating Lease:

a) Lease other than finance leases are operating leases.

17. The Company has adopted Ind AS 116 using the cumulative effect method. The effect of initially applying
this standard is recognized at the date of initial application (i.e. April 1, 2019) and the comparative information
continues to be reported under Ind AS 17.

b) The Company has chosen the practical expedient provided by the standard to apply Ind AS 116 only to contracts
that were previously identified as leases under Ind AS 17 and therefore has not reassessed whether a contract is or
contains a lease at the date of initial application.

9. NON CURRENT INVESTMENTS

a) In accordance with Ind AS 101, First time adoption of Indian Accounting Standards, the Company has chosen to consider
the carrying amount of investment as their deemed cost as at the Opening Balance Sheet as at 01st April, 2015.

e) The Company reviews the book value of the investment on a quarterly basis and provides for diminution in the value of
the investment based on the net worth of the investee company.

f) Impairment in the value of investment is made only if in the opinion of management when there is a permanent fall in
value of investment.

10. IMPAIRMENT OF NON-FINANCIAL ASSETS

As at each reporting date the Company assesses whether there is any indication that an asset may be impaired. If any
indication exists, the Company estimates the recoverable amount. If the estimated recoverable amount is found less than its
carrying amount, the impairment loss is recognised and assets are written down to their recoverable amount.

11. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

A financial instrument is a contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one entity and a financial liability or equity instrument
of another entity. The Company recognizes a financial asset or a financial liability only when it becomes party to the contractual
provisions of the instrument.

I. Financial Assets

Initial recognition and Measurement

All financial assets are recognized at fair value on initial recognition except for trade receivables which are initially
measured at transaction price.

Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of the financial asset, which are not valued at
fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL), are added to the fair value on initial recognition.

Subsequent Measurement

For subsequent measurement, the Company classifies a financial asset in accordance with the below criteria:

i. The Company''s business model for managing the financial asset and

ii. The contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial asset

Based on the above criteria, for purpose of subsequent measurement, financial assets are classified in the following
categories:

a) Financial assets carried at amortised cost:

A financial asset is subsequently measured at amortized cost if it is held within a business model whose objective is
to hold the financial asset in order to collect contractual cash flows and the contractual terms of the financial asset
give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount
outstanding.

This category applies to cash and bank balances, trade receivables, loans and other financial assets of the Company.

b) Financial assets carried at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI):

A financial asset is subsequently measured at fair value through other comprehensive income if it is held within a
business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets
and the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments
of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

c) Financial assets carried at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL):

A financial asset, which is not classified in any of the above categories are subsequently measured at fair value
through profit or loss.

Derecognition

The Company derecognizes (i.e removes from the Company''s balance sheet) a financial asset (or where applicable
a part of a financial asset) when the contractual rights to receive the cash flows from the financial asset expire or it
transfers the financial asset and the transfer qualifies for derecognition under Ind AS 109.

On derecognition of a financial asset, (except as mentioned in (b) above for financial assets measured at FVTOCI),
the difference between the asset''s carrying amount and the consideration received is recognized in the Statement
of Profit and Loss.

Impairment of Financial Assets

In accordance with Ind AS 109, the Company applies the expected credit loss (ECL) model for measurement and
recognition of impairment loss on financial assets with credit risk exposure.

a) Debts from the Government departments are generally treated as fully recoverable, based on past experience,
and hence in the opinion of Management there is no increase in the credit risk of such financial assets.

b) In respect of dues outstanding for a significant period of time, impairment on account of expected credit loss
is being assessed on a case-to-case basis.

c) Suitable provision is made for dues which are disputed.

d) ECL impairment loss allowance (or reversal) recognized during the period is recognized as expense/income in
the Statement of Profit and Loss.

II. Financial Liability

Initial recognition and Measurement

All financial liabilities are recognized at fair value on initial recognition and in the case of liabilities subsequently measured
at amortized cost, net of directly attributable transaction cost.

The Company''s Financial Liabilities include trade and other payables, loans and borrowings. For trade and other
payables liabilities are recognized for the amounts to be paid for the goods / services received whether billed by the
supplier or not.

Subsequent Measurement

All financial liabilities of the Company are subsequently measured at amortized cost.

Derecognition

A financial liability (or where applicable a part of the financial liability) is derecognized from the Company''s Balance Sheet
when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged or cancelled or expires.

The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability derecognized and the consideration paid is
recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

III. Offsetting of financial instruments

Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the Balance Sheet wherever there is
a currently enforceable legal right to offset the recognized amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or
to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

12. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between
market participants at the measurement date.

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) market 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
(i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices).

Level 3 - inputs for the assets or liabilities that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

The Company measures financial instruments, in its financial statements at fair value at each reporting date.

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.

13. DEFERRED DEBTS

Unpaid installment payments under deferred payment terms for the cost of imported materials and tooling content of
the equipment / products sold are accounted as deferred debts from the customer and are recovered as and when the
installments are paid.

14. INVENTORIES

a) Inventories other than Saleable / Disposable scrap are valued at lower of Cost and Net Realisable Value. Saleable /
Disposable scrap is valued at net realisable value.

b) The cost of raw material excluding Goods-in-Transit, components and stores are assigned by using the weighted average
cost formula. Goods-in-Transit are valued at cost-to-date. In the case of Finished Goods, Stock-in-Trade and Work-In¬
Progress, cost includes costs of purchase, costs of conversion and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their
present location and condition. Cost includes Taxes and duties (other than Taxes and duties for which input credit is
available).

c) Provision for redundancy is assessed on ageing at a suitable percentage / level of the value of closing inventory of raw
material and components, stores and spare parts and construction material. Besides, wherever necessary, adequate
provision is made for the redundancy of such materials in respect of completed / specific projects and other surplus /
redundant material pending transfer to salvage stores.

d) Stores declared surplus / unserviceable / redundant are charged to revenue in the year of such identification.

e) Consumables issued from stores and lying unused at the end of the year are not reckoned as inventory.

15. REVENUE RECOGNITION

I. Manufacturing of Aircraft/ Helicopter/Spares/Repair Contracts

a) Revenue on Sale of Goods and Services is recognized at a point in time when the Company satisfies the performance
obligation on transfer of control of the products to the Customer in an amount that reflects the consideration the
Company expects to receive in exchange for those products pursuant to the Contract with customer. It is measured
at transaction price. Revenue from service Warranty is recognized on straight line basis over the period of Warranty.

determined, the revenue is recognised at the most likely amount based on past experience. Differential revenue, if
any, is recognised on receipt of approval / sanction.

II. Development Contracts

a) Revenue is recognized over a period of time on incurrence of expenditure identifiable to work orders:

i. where milestones have been defined, on achievement of milestone under the output method.

ii. where milestones have not been defined, on incurrence of expenditure under the input method.

b) Where the customer''s sanction for revision is pending, the expenditure incurred is retained in work-in-progress/
intangible asset. Subsequent revenue is recognized on receipt of revised financial sanction from the customer.

to the Statement of Profit and Loss.

The minimum rate at which annual interest is payable by the trust to the beneficiaries is being notified by the
Government. The Company has an obligation to make good the shortfall, if any, between the return on investments
of the trust and the notified interest rate. Such shortfall is determined at each Balance Sheet date based on actuarial
valuation and charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss.

retirement plan. The Company contributes Gratuity liabilities to the Gratuity Trust.

Recognition and measurement of defined benefit plans:

The cost of providing defined benefits is determined on the basis of actuarial valuation using the Projected Unit
Credit method with valuation being carried out at each Balance Sheet date.

The Company recognises the net obligation of a defined benefit plan in its Balance Sheet as an asset or liability. The
net defined benefit obligations recognised in the Balance Sheet represent the present value of the defined benefit
obligations as reduced by the fair value of plan assets.

The Company recognises the following changes in the net defined benefit obligation as an expense in the statement
of profit and loss.

i. Service cost comprising current service costs, past service costs.

ii. Net interest on the defined benefit liability (asset). Net interest cost is calculated by applying the discount rate
to the net balance of the defined benefit obligation and the fair value of plan assets.

Gains and losses through re-measurements of the net defined benefit liability/(asset) comprising actuarial gains
and losses and the return on the plan assets (excluding amounts included in net interest on the net defined benefit
liability/asset), are recognized in the balance sheet with a corresponding debit or credit to retained earnings through
other comprehensive income in the period in which they occur. Re-measurements are not classified to the statement
of profit and loss in the subsequent period. The effect of any plan amendments is recognized in net profit in the
Statement of Profit and Loss.

III. Compensated Absences:

The Company has a policy on compensated absences like Vacation leave which are accumulating in nature. Vacation
leave can either be availed or encashed subject to restrictions on the maximum number of accumulations of leave.
The Company determines the liability for such accumulated leaves using the Project Unit Credit method with actuarial
valuations being carried out at each Balance Sheet date. The obligation is funded through qualifying insurance policies
made with insurance companies.

17. FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSACTION/TRANSLATION
Initial Recognition:

On initial recognition, transaction in foreign currencies, entered into by the Company, are recorded in the functional currency
by applying to the foreign currency amount the spot exchange rate between the functional currency and the foreign currency
at the date of the transaction.

Measurement of Foreign currency items at reporting date:

Foreign currency monetary items are translated at closing exchange rates. Non- monetary items that are measured in terms
of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rate at the date of transaction. Non-monetary items
that are measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rate at the date when the fair value is
measured.

Recognition of Exchange Difference:

Exchange differences arising on the settlement of monetary items or on translating monetary items at rates different from
those at which they are translated on initial recognition during the period or in previous financial statement is recognized in
statement of profit and loss in the period in which they arise.

provisions of Income Tax Act,1961(the "Act").

b) Deferred Tax is recognized using the Balance Sheet method, providing for temporary differences between the carrying
amount of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. Deferred
Tax Assets in excess of Deferred Tax Liability are recognized to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will
be available against which the temporary difference can be utilized. Deferred Tax Assets are reviewed at each reporting
date and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realized.

The Company''s IJT Division is primarily engaged in the production of Intermediate Jet Trainers (IJT) Aircraft. The supply contract with IAF is under execution. In view of the fact that concurrent production is happening along with 24B improvement in the Design & Development to meet the customers requirement, resulted in non-absorption of fixed overheads.

The sales are dependent on the certification process which needs to be completed before the customers can take deliveries. The certification process typically takes place in the third and fourth quarter due to favorable weather conditions for flight tests during this period. This leads to bunching up of sales during the third and fourth quarter of each financial year and consequently, the revenue varies significantly between the first and second half of the year.

Financial Risk Management

The Company is exposed to market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk which may impact the fair value of its financial instruments. The Company based on its business operation evaluated the following risks:

a) Foreign currency risk:

Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of an exposure will fluctuate because of changes in exchange rates. The Company''s exposure to the risk of changes in exchange rates relates primarily to the Company''s imports for which the payment has to be done in currencies other than the functional currency of the Company. The fluctuation in exchange rates in respect to the Indian rupee may have very restricted impact on company as any fluctuations in foreign exchange are in general reimbursed by the customers of the Company in terms of the contractual obligations which the Company has with its customers.

b) Credit Risk

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counter party to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations resulting in a financial loss to the Company. Credit risk arises principally from trade receivables, loans & advances, advances given to suppliers (for procurement of goods, services and capital goods, cash & cash equivalents and deposits with banks and financial institutions). The Company for the Financial Year (FY) derived 97.97 % (Previous Year (PY) 96.90% of its total sales from sales to the Indian Defense Services. The Company expects to continue to derive most of its sales from the Indian Defense Services under the contracts of the Ministry of Defense (MoD), Government of India (GoI) -the Company''s principal shareholder and administrative ministry.

c) Provision for expected credit losses:

As the Company''s debtors are predominantly the Government of India (Indian Defense Services, Ministry of External Affairs), Central Public Sector Undertakings where the counter-parties have sufficient capacity to meet the obligations and where the risk of default is NIL/negligible. Accordingly, no loss allowance for impairment has been

33 recognized. Further, management believes that the unimpaired amounts that are due collectible in full, based on historical payment behavior and extensive analysis of customer credit risk. Hence, no impairment loss has been recognized during the reporting periods in respect of trade receivables.

d) Liquidity risk:

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will encounter difficulty in meeting the obligations associated with its financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset. Typically, the Company ensures that it has sufficient cash on demand to meet expected operational expenses including the servicing of financial obligations. The Company''s standard contract terms provide that, the Company receives advance payments from customers pursuant to the applicable contracts, including the GoI and the Indian Defense Services at the time of signing of any contract and milestone payments on achievement of physical milestones. These payments are utilized to meet the Company''s working capital needs (for the Company required to maintain a high level of working capital because the Company''s activities are characterized by long product development periods and production cycles). A majority of the Company''s research, design and development costs are funded by the Indian Defense services. Services and supply of spares are governed by the Fixed Price Quotation (FPQ) policy for fixation of the prices wherein the prices are fixed for the base year with escalation parameters for a pricing period of 5-7 years. The process of fixation of prices and approvals takes a minimum period of two years after the expiry of previous pricing period. In the interim, the approved prices of the previous pricing period are continued and payments are accordingly realized and on finalization of the revised prices, the differential prices are paid to the Company. Further, certain costs not forming part of selling price are reimbursed by customer on incurrence of expenditure. The reimbursement is based on verification and issuance of audit certificate by the payees. There are delays in the above process due to unanticipated variations/adjustments in the scope and schedule of the Company''s obligations due to subsequent modifications by the customers and delays in receipt of approvals from the customer. Further, payments to the Company by the Indian Defense Services are reliant on the continuing availability of budgetary appropriations by Government of India and any disruptions to the availability of such appropriations could adversely affect the Company''s cash flows.

Financial Risk Management

e) Market risk:

The Ministry of Defense (MoD) and the Government of India (GoI) have continued efforts to reform defense related policies such as the Defense Procurement Procedure 2016 (“DPP 2016”) to promote private participation, a level playing field and the domestic defense manufacturing Industry and eco-system. While the MoD has given the highest priority to Indigenously Designed, Developed and Manufactured (“IDDM”) products for capital procurement, the Company faces completion to be selected as the Indian production agency for such contracts. These policies have raised the level of market competition in the areas in which the Company operates.

f) Risk Mitigation Process:

As a step of institutionalizing the risk management in the Company, an elaborate framework has been developed and the Company''s top management has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the Company''s risk management framework. An important purpose of the framework is to have a structured and comprehensive risk management system across the company which ensures that the risks are being properly identified and effectively managed. The Company has a risk management policy to manage & mitigate these risks. The risk management process includes risk identification, risk assessment, risk evaluation, risk mitigation and regular review and monitoring of risks. The Company’s risk management policy aims to reduce volatility in financial statements while maintaining balance between providing predictability in the Company''s business plan along with reasonable participation in market movement. Capital Management:

For the purpose of the Company''s capital management, capital includes issued equity capital and all other equity reserves attributable to the equity holders of the parent. The primary objective of the Company''s capital management is to maximize the shareholder value.

The Company manages its capital structure and makes adjustments in light of changes in economic conditions and requirements. To maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may adjust the dividend payment to

34 shareholders, return capital to shareholders or issue new shares.

The Company monitors capital by using debt equity ratio, which is borrowings divided by Equity.
