Accounting Policies of Indsil Hydro Power and Manganese Ltd. Company

Mar 31, 2025

Significant accounting policies

2.1 Statement of compliance

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Indian Accounting Standards (‘Ind AS ’) prescribed
under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 (“the Act”) read with Rule 3 of the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards)
Rules, 2015 (as amended)

2.2 Basis of preparation

(i) Historical Cost Convention

These financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except for certain financial instruments and
defined benefit plans that are measured at fair values at the end of each reporting period, as explained in the accounting
policies below. Historical cost is generally based on the fair value of the consideration given in exchange for goods and
services.

(ii) 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, regardless of whether that price is directly observable or estimated using another
valuation technique. In measuring fair value of an asset or liability, the Company takes into account those characteristics of the
assets or liability that market participants would take into account when pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date.

In addition, for financial reporting purposes, fair value measurements are categorised into Level 1, 2 or 3 based on the
degree to which the inputs to the fair value measurements are obser vable and the significance of the inputs to the fair value
measurement in its entirety, which are described as follows:

• Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access
at the measurement date;

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

• Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

(iii) Functional and presentational currency

These financial statements are presented in Indian Rupee (INR) which is also the functional currency.

(iv) Rounding off amounts

All amounts disclosed in the financial statements have been rounded off to the nearest rupees in Lakhs, as per the requirements
of Schedule III of the Act, unless otherwise stated.

(v) Use of estimates and judgements

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Ind AS requires the management to make judgements, estim ates
and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and
expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing
basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimates are revised and in any future
period affected.

In particular, following are the significant areas of estimation, uncertainty and critical judgements in applying accounting

policies that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in standalone financial statements:

a. Assessment of useful life of property, plant and equipment and intangible asset - refer below note 2.5.

b. Recognition and estimation of tax expense including deferred tax - refer note 2.30

c. Estimation of obligations relating to employee benefits: key actuarial assumptions - refer note 2.20

d. Fair value measurement refer above note 2.2 (ii)

e. Recognition and measurement of provision and contingency - refer note 2.35

f. Estimated impairment of financials Assets-refer below note.2.11

2.3 Current versus non-current classification

The Company presents assets and liabilities in the balance sheet based on current/non-current classification. An asset is

treated as current when it is:

• Expected to be realised or intended to be sold or consumed in the normal operating cycle;

• Held primarily for the purpose of trading;

• Expected to be realised within twelve months after the reporting period; or

• Cash or cash equivalent unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months after
the reporting period.

All other assets are classified as non-current. A liability is current when:

• It is expected to be settled in the normal operating cycle;

• It is held primarily for the purpose of trading;

• It is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period; or

• There is no unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period.

All other liabilities are classified as non-current.

The Company has deemed its operating cycle as twelve months for the purpose of current/non- current classification.

2.4 Revenue recognition

Revenue is measured at the fair value of consideration received or receivable.

a) The Company recognizes revenue from sale of goods when it satisfies a performance obligation in accordance with
the provisions of contract with the customer. This is achieved when it no longer retains control over the goods sold, the
amount of revenue can be measured reliably, it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will
flow to the Company and the costs incurred or to be incurred in respect of the transaction can be measured reliably. Sale
of goods is recognised net of taxes collected on behalf of third parties.

The performance obligation in case of sale of goods is satisfied at a point in time i.e., when the material is shipped to the
customer or on delivery to the customer, as may be specified in the contract.

b) Inter unit transfers are adjusted against respective expenses.

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

d) Dividend income from investments in equity shares and mutual funds is recognised when the right to receive the dividend
is established.

e) Export Incentives are recognised as per schemes specified in foreign Trade Policy, as amended from time to time, on
accrual basis in the year when right to receive as per terms of the scheme is established and are accounted to the extent
there in no uncertainty about its ultimate collection.

f) Insurance Claim is accrued in the year when the right to receive is established and is recognised to the extent there is no
uncertainty about its ultimate collection.

2.5 Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, if any. Cost
includes expenditures directly attributable to the cost of acquisition of the asset. Cost includes related taxes, duties, freight,
insurance etc., attributable to acquisition and installation of assets and borrowing cost incurred up to the date of commencing
operations, but excludes duties and taxes that are recoverable from taxing authorities.

Subsequent expenditure relating to property, plant and equipment is capitalised only when it is probable that future economic
benefits associated with these will flow to the Company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably.

The cost of property, plant and equipment not available for use before such date are disclosed under capital work- in-progress.

An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected
to arise from the continued use of the asset. Any gain or loss arising on the disposal or retirement of an item of property,
plant and equipment is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and is
recognised in the profit or loss.

Upon transition to Ind AS, the Company has decided to continue with the carrying value of all its property, plant and equipment
recognised as at 1^st April 2016 measures as per the previous GAAP and use that carrying value as the deemed cost of
property, plant and equipment.

The Company has adopted the useful life as specified in Schedule II to the Act, except for certain assets for which the
useful life has been estimated based on the Company’s past experiences in this regard, duly supported by technical advice.
Accordingly, the useful lives of tangible assets of the Company which are different from the useful lives as specified by
Schedule II are given below:

Buildings - 30 Yrs

Plant & Machineries - 20 Yrs

Furniture & Fittings - 10 Yrs

Vehicles - 8 Yrs

Office Equipments - 5 Yrs

Computers & Electronic Devices - 3 Yrs

Refer Note 2.01 for detailed classification of the Company’s assets under various heads.

2.6 Intangible Assets

Intangible assets are recognised when the asset is identifiable, is within the control of the Company, it is probable that the
future economic benefits that are attributable to the asset will flow to the Company and cost of the asset can be reliably
measured.

Intangible assets with finite useful lives are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment
losses. Amortisation is recognised on a straight line basis over their estimated useful lives, if any other method which reflects
the pattern in which the asset’s future economic benefits are expected to be consumed by the entity cannot be determined
reliably. The estimated useful life and amortisation method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of
any changes in estimate being accounted for on a prospective basis.

For transition to Ind AS, the Company had elected to continue with the carrying value of all its intangible assets recognised
as at the transition date, measured as per the previously applicable Indian GAAP and used that carrying value as its deemed
cost as at the transition date.

2.7 Borrowing Costs

Borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset (net of income
earned on temporary deployment of funds) are added to the cost of those assets, until such time as the assets are substantially
ready for their intended use or sale. All other borrowing costs are recognised as an expense in the period in which they are
incurred.

A qualifying asset is an asset that necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use or sale.

2.8 Inventories

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value.

Cost of inventories is determined on the ‘weighted average’ basis and comprises expenditure incurred in the normal course of
business for bringing such inventories to their present location and condition and includes, wherever applicable, appropriate
overheads.

Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion
and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.

2.9 Financial Instruments

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

Financial Assets

Classification

The Company classifies financial assets as subsequently measured at amortised cost, fair value through other comprehensive
income or fair value through profit or loss on the basis of its business model for managing the financial assets and the
contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial asset.

Initial recognition and measurement

All financial assets are recognised initially at fair value plus, in the case of financial assets not recognised at fair value through
profit or loss, transaction costs that are attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset.

Subsequent measurement of financial assets are dependent on initial categorisation. For impairment purposes, significant
financial assets are tested on an individual basis and other financial assets are assessed collectively in groups that share
similar credit risk characteristics.

Financial assets measured at amortised cost

Financial assets are measured at amortised cost when asset is held within a business model, whose objective is to hold
assets for collecting contractual cash flows and contractual terms of the asset give rise, on specified dates, to cash flows that
are solely payments of principal and interest.

Financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI)

Financial assets under this category are measured initially as well as at each reporting date at fair value. Fair value movements
are recognised in the other comprehensive income.

Financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL)

Financial assets under this category are measured initially as well as at each reporting date at fair value with all changes
recognised in profit or loss.

Cash and cash equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid financial instruments, which are readily convertible into known amounts of cash, that
are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value with a maturity within three months or less from the date of purchase,
to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents consist of balances with banks which are unrestricted for withdrawal and
usage.

Derecognition of financial assets

A financial asset is primarily derecognised when the rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired or the Company
has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from the asset.

Financial liabilities

Classification

The Company classifies all financial liabilities as subsequently measured at amortised cost, except for financial liabilities at
fair value through profit or loss. Such liabilities, including derivatives that are liabilities, shall be subsequently measured at fair
value.

Initial recognition and measurement

All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value and in the case of loans, borrowings and payables, net of directly
attributable transaction costs. Financial liabilities include trade and other payables, loans and borrowings including bank
overdrafts and derivative financial instruments.

Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss

Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss include financial liabilities held for trading and financial liabilities designated
upon initial recognition as at fair value through profit or loss. Financial liabilities are classified as held for trading, if they are
incurred for the purpose of repurchasing in the near term. This category also includes derivative financial instruments that are
not designated as hedging instruments in hedge relationships as defined by Ind AS 109 - “Financial Instruments”. Separated
embedded derivatives are also classified as held for trading unless they are designated as effective hedging instruments.

Financial liabilities measured at amortised cost

After initial recognition, interest bearing loans and borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the EIR
method except for those designated in an effective hedging relationship.

Amortised cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium and fee or costs that are an integral part of
the EIR. The EIR amortisation is included in finance costs in the Statement of Profit and Loss. Any difference between the
proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption amount is recognised in profit or loss over the period of the borrowings
using the EIR method. Fees paid on the establishment of loan facilities are recognised as transaction costs of the loan to the
extent that it is probable that some or all of the facility will be drawn down.

Trade and other payables

A payable is classified as ‘trade payable’ if it is in respect of the amount due on account of goods purchased or services received
in the normal course of business. These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Company prior
to the end of financial year, which are unpaid. They are recognised initially at their fair value and subsequently measured at
amortised cost using the EIR method.

Financial guarantee contracts

Financial guarantees issued by the Company are those guarantees that require a payment to be made to reimburse the
holder of the guarantee for a loss incurred by the holder because the specified debtor fails to make a payment, when due, to
the holder in accordance with the terms of a debt instrument. Financial guarantees are recognised initially as a liability at fair
value, adjusted for transactions costs that are directly attributable to the issuance of the guarantee. Subsequently, the liability
is measured at the higher of the amount of loss allowance determined as per impairment requirements of Ind AS 109 and the
amount recognised less cumulative amortisation.

Embedded derivatives

Derivatives embedded in non-derivative host contracts that are not financial assets within the scope of Ind AS 109 are treated
as separate derivatives when their risks and characteristics are not closely related to those of the host contracts and the host
contracts are not measured at FVTPL.

Derecognition of financial liabilities

A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires. The difference
between the carrying amount of a financial liability that has been extinguished or transferred to another party and the

consideration paid, including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed, is recognised in profit or loss as other
income or finance costs.

2.10 Derivative financial instruments

The Company enters into a variety of derivative financial instruments to manage its exposure to interest rate and foreign
exchange rate risks, including foreign exchange forward contracts, interest rate swaps and cross currency swaps.

Derivatives are initially recognised at fair value at the date the derivative contracts are entered into and are subsequently
measured to their fair value at the end of each reporting period. The resulting gain or loss is recognised in the Statement of
Profit and Loss immediately unless the derivative is designated as hedging instrument.

2.11 Impairment of financial assets:

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

Expected credit losses are the weighted average of credit losses with the respective risks of default occurring as the weights.
Credit loss is the difference between all contractual cash flows that are due to the Company in accordance with the contract
and all the cash flows that the Company expects to receive (i.e. all cash shortfalls), discounted at the original effective interest
rate (or credit-adjusted effective interest rate for purchased or originated credit-impaired financial assets). The Company
estimates cash flows by considering all contractual terms of the financial instrument (for example, prepayment, extension, call
and similar options) through the expected life of that financial instrument.

The Company measures the loss allowance for a financial instrument at an amount equal to the lifetime expected credit losses
if the credit risk on that financial instrument has increased significantly since initial recognition. If the credit risk on a financial
instrument has not increased significantly since initial recognition, the Company measures the loss allowance for that financial
instrument at an amount equal to 12-month expected credit losses. 12-month expected credit losses are portion of the life¬
time expected credit losses and represent the lifetime cash shortfalls that will result if default occurs within the 12 months after
the reporting date and thus, are not cash shortfalls that are predicted over the next 12 months.

If the Company measured loss allowance for a financial instrument at lifetime expected credit loss model in the previous period,
but determines at the end of a reporting period that the credit risk has not increased significantly since initial recognition due
to improvement in credit quality as compared to the previous period, the Company again measures the loss allowance based
on 12-month expected credit losses.

When making the assessment of whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition, the group
uses the change in the risk of a default occurring over the expected life of the financial instrument instead of the change in
the amount of expected credit losses. To make that assessment, the group compares the risk of a default occurring on the
financial instrument as at the reporting date with the risk of a default occurring on the financial instrument as at the date of
initial recognition and considers reasonable and supportable information, that is available without undue cost or effort, that is
indicative of significant increases in credit risk since initial recognition.

2.12 Leases

The determination of whether an arrangement is, or contains a lease is based on the substance of the arrangement at the
inception of the lease. The arrangement is, or contains a lease if fulfilment of the arrangement is dependent on the use of a
specific asset or assets or the arrangement conveys a right to control the use of the asset or assets, even if that right is not
explicitly specified in an arrangement.

The Company has applied Ind AS 116 from 1^st April, 2019 onwards using the modified retrospective approach.

a) Arrangements where the Company is the lessee

The company recognises a right-of-use asset and a lease liability at the lease commencement date. The right-of-use asset is
initially measured at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or
before the commencement date, plus any initial direct costs incurred and an estimate of costs to dismantle and remove the
underlying asset or to restore the underlying asset or the site on which it is located, less any lease incentives received.

The right-of-use asset is subsequently depreciated using the straight-line method from the commencement date to the earlier
of the end of the useful life of the right-of-use asset or the end of the lease term. The estimated useful lives of right-of-use

assets are determined on the same basis as those of property and equipment. In addition, the right-of-use asset is periodically
reduced by impairment losses, if any, and adjusted for certain re-measurements of the lease liability.

The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at the commencement
date, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or company’s incremental borrowing rate. The lease liability is
measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. It is remeasured when there is a change in future lease
payments.

For short-term and low value leases are classified as operating leases. Payments made under operating leases are recognised
in the Statement of Profit and Loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

b) Arrangements where the Company is the lessor

Rental income from operating leases is generally recognised on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Where the rentals
are structured solely to increase in line with expected general inflation to compensate for the Company’s expected inflationary
cost increases, such increases are recognised in the year in which such benefits accrue.

2.13 Foreign currency transactions and translations

Transactions in foreign currencies are translated to the functional currency of the Company (i.e. INR) at exchange rates at the
dates of the transactions. Monetar y assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the reporting date, except for
those derivative balances that are within the scope of Ind AS 109 - “Financial Instruments”, are translated to the functional
currency at the exchange rate at that date and the related foreign currency gain or loss are recognised in the Statement of
Profit and Loss.

Foreign exchang e dif ferences re g ard e d as an adjustment to interest costs are recognised in the Statement of Profit and
Loss. Realised or unrealised gain in respect of the settlement or translation of borrowing is recognised as an adjustment to
interest cost to the extent of the loss previously recognised as an adjustment to interest cost.

2.14 Employee benefits

a) Employee benefits in the form of Provident Fund, Pension Fund, Superannuation Fund and Employees State Insurance
are defined contribution plans. The Company recognizes contribution payable to a defined contribution plan as an
expense, when an employee renders the related service. If the contribution payable to the scheme for services received
before the balance sheet date exceeds the contribution already paid, the contribution payable to the scheme is recognised
as a liability after deducting the contribution already paid. If the contribution already paid exceeds the contribution due for
services received before the balance sheet date, the excess is recognised as an asset to the extent that the pre-payment
will lead to, for example, a reduction in future payment or a cash refund.

b) Gratuity liability is defined benefit plans. The cost of providing benefits under the defined benefit plans is determined using
the projected unit credit method, with actuarial valuations being carried out at the end of each annual reporting period.
Remeasurements of the net defined benefit liability/asset comprise:

i) actuarial gains and losses;

ii) the return on plan assets, excluding amounts included in net interest on the net defined benefit liability/asset; and

iii) any change in the effect of the asset ceiling, excluding amounts included in net interest on the net defined benefit
liability/asset.

Remeasurements of net defined benefit liability/asset are charged or credited to other comprehensive income.

c) Compensated absences is other long term employee benefit. The expected cost of accumulating compensated absences
is determined by actuarial valuation performed by an independent actuary at each balance sheet date using projected
unit credit method on the additional amount expected to be paid/ availed as a result of the unused entitlement that has
accumulated at the balance sheet date. Actuarial gains and losses are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

2.15 Taxes on Income

Income tax expense comprises of current tax and deferred tax. It is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss, except to
the extent that it relates to items recognised directly in equity or other comprehensive income. In such cases, the tax is also
recognised directly in equity or in other comprehensive income.

Current tax

Current tax is the amount of tax payable on the taxable income for the year, determined in accordance with the provisions of
the Income Tax Act, 1961.

Deferred tax

Deferred tax is recognised on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the balance
sheet and their corresponding tax bases. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable temporary differences.
Deferred tax assets are generally recognised for all deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses being carried
forward, to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available in future against which those deductible temporary
differences and tax losses can be utilised. Such deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognised if the temporary difference
arises from initial recognition (other than in a business combination) of assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither
the taxable profit nor the accounting profit. In addition, deferred tax liabilities are not recognised if the temporary difference
arises from the initial recognition of goodwill.

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is
no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.

Deferred tax liabilities and assets are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in which the liability
is settled or the asset realised, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end
of the reporting period.

Significant accounting policies

2.1 Statement of compliance

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Indian Accounting Standards (‘Ind AS ’) prescribed under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 (“the Act”) read with Rule 3 of the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 (as amended)

2.2 Basis of preparation

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, regardless of whether that price is directly observable or estimated using another valuation technique. In measuring fair value of an asset or liability, the Company takes into account those characteristics of the assets or liability that market participants would take into account when pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date.

In addition, for financial reporting purposes, fair value measurements are categorised into Level 1, 2 or 3 based on the degree to which the inputs to the fair value measurements are obser vable and the significance of the inputs to the fair value measurement in its entirety, which are described as follows:

• Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date;

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

• Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

(iii) Functional and presentational currency

These financial statements are presented in Indian Rupee (INR) which is also the functional currency.

(iv) Rounding off amounts

All amounts disclosed in the financial statements have been rounded off to the nearest rupees in Lakhs, as per the requirements of Schedule III of the Act, unless otherwise stated.

(v) Use of estimates and judgements

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Ind AS requires the management to make judgements, estim ates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimates are revised and in any future period affected.

In particular, following are the significant areas of estimation, uncertainty and critical judgements in applying accounting

policies that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in standalone financial statements:

a. Assessment of useful life of property, plant and equipment and intangible asset - refer below note 2.5.

b. Recognition and estimation of tax expense including deferred tax - refer note 2.31

c. Estimation of obligations relating to employee benefits: key actuarial assumptions - refer note 2.34

d. Fair value measurement refer above note 2.2 (ii)

e. Recognition and measurement of provision and contingency - refer note 2.33

f. Estimated impairment of financials Assets-refer below note.2.01

2.3 Current versus non-current classification

The Company presents assets and liabilities in the balance sheet based on current/non-current classification. An asset is

treated as current when it is:

• Expected to be realised or intended to be sold or consumed in the normal operating cycle;

• Held primarily for the purpose of trading;

• Expected to be realised within twelve months after the reporting period; or

• Cash or cash equivalent unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period.

All other assets are classified as non-current. A liability is current when:

• It is expected to be settled in the normal operating cycle;

• It is held primarily for the purpose of trading;

• It is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period; or

• There is no unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period.

All other liabilities are classified as non-current.

The Company has deemed its operating cycle as twelve months for the purpose of current/non- current classification.

2.4 Revenue recognition

Revenue is measured at the fair value of consideration received or receivable.

a) The Company recognizes revenue from sale of goods when it satisfies a performance obligation in accordance with the provisions of contract with the customer. This is achieved when it no longer retains control over the goods sold, the amount of revenue can be measured reliably, it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the Company and the costs incurred or to be incurred in respect of the transaction can be measured reliably. Sale of goods is recognised net of taxes collected on behalf of third parties.

The performance obligation in case of sale of goods is satisfied at a point in time i.e., when the material is shipped to the customer or on delivery to the customer, as may be specified in the contract.

b) Inter unit transfers are adjusted against respective expenses.

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

d) Dividend income from investments in equity shares and mutual funds is recognised when the right to receive the dividend is established.

e) Export Incentives are recognised as per schemes specified in foreign Trade Policy, as amended from time to time, on accrual basis in the year when right to receive as per terms of the scheme is established and are accounted to the extent there in no uncertainty about its ultimate collection.

f) Insurance Claim is accrued in the year when the right to receive is established and is recognised to the extent there is no uncertainty about its ultimate collection.

2.5 Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, if any. Cost includes expenditures directly attributable to the cost of acquisition of the asset. Cost includes related taxes, duties, freight, insurance etc., attributable to acquisition and installation of assets and borrowing cost incurred up to the date of commencing operations, but excludes duties and taxes that are recoverable from taxing authorities.

Subsequent expenditure relating to property, plant and equipment is capitalised only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with these will flow to the Company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably.

The cost of property, plant and equipment not available for use before such date are disclosed under capital work- in-progress.

An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset. Any gain or loss arising on the disposal or retirement of an item of property, plant and equipment is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and is recognised in the profit or loss.

Upon transition to Ind AS, the Company has decided to continue with the carrying value of all its property, plant and equipment recognised as at 1^st April 2016 measures as per the previous GAAP and use that carrying value as the deemed cost of property, plant and equipment.

The Company has adopted the useful life as specified in Schedule II to the Act, except for certain assets for which the useful life has been estimated based on the Company’s past experiences in this regard, duly supported by technical advice. Accordingly, the useful lives of tangible assets of the Company which are different from the useful lives as specified by Schedule II are given below:

2.6 Intangible Assets

Intangible assets are recognised when the asset is identifiable, is within the control of the Company, it is probable that the future economic benefits that are attributable to the asset will flow to the Company and cost of the asset can be reliably measured.

Intangible assets with finite useful lives are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses. Amortisation is recognised on a straight line basis over their estimated useful lives, if any other method which reflects the pattern in which the asset’s future economic benefits are expected to be consumed by the entity cannot be determined reliably. The estimated useful life and amortisation method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimate being accounted for on a prospective basis.

For transition to Ind AS, the Company had elected to continue with the carrying value of all its intangible assets recognised as at the transition date, measured as per the previously applicable Indian GAAP and used that carrying value as its deemed cost as at the transition date.

2.7 Borrowing Costs

Borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset (net of income earned on temporary deployment of funds) are added to the cost of those assets, until such time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale. All other borrowing costs are recognised as an expense in the period in which they are incurred.

A qualifying asset is an asset that necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use or sale.

The Company classifies financial assets as subsequently measured at amortised cost, fair value through other comprehensive income or fair value through profit or loss on the basis of its business model for managing the financial assets and the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial asset.

Initial recognition and measurement

All financial assets are recognised initially at fair value plus, in the case of financial assets not recognised at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs that are attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset.

Subsequent measurement of financial assets are dependent on initial categorisation. For impairment purposes, significant financial assets are tested on an individual basis and other financial assets are assessed collectively in groups that share similar credit risk characteristics.

Financial assets measured at amortised cost

Financial assets are measured at amortised cost when asset is held within a business model, whose objective is to hold assets for collecting contractual cash flows and contractual terms of the asset give rise, on specified dates, to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest.

Financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI)

Financial assets under this category are measured initially as well as at each reporting date at fair value. Fair value movements are recognised in the other comprehensive income.

Financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL)

Financial assets under this category are measured initially as well as at each reporting date at fair value with all changes recognised in profit or loss.

Cash and cash equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid financial instruments, which are readily convertible into known amounts of cash, that are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value with a maturity within three months or less from the date of purchase, to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents consist of balances with banks which are unrestricted for withdrawal and usage.

A financial asset is primarily derecognised when the rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired or the Company has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from the asset.

Financial liabilities

Classification

The Company classifies all financial liabilities as subsequently measured at amortised cost, except for financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss. Such liabilities, including derivatives that are liabilities, shall be subsequently measured at fair value.

Initial recognition and measurement

All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value and in the case of loans, borrowings and payables, net of directly attributable transaction costs. Financial liabilities include trade and other payables, loans and borrowings including bank overdrafts and derivative financial instruments.

Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss

Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss include financial liabilities held for trading and financial liabilities designated upon initial recognition as at fair value through profit or loss. Financial liabilities are classified as held for trading, if they are incurred for the purpose of repurchasing in the near term. This category also includes derivative financial instruments that are not designated as hedging instruments in hedge relationships as defined by Ind AS 109 - “Financial Instruments”. Separated embedded derivatives are also classified as held for trading unless they are designated as effective hedging instruments.

Financial liabilities measured at amortised cost

After initial recognition, interest bearing loans and borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the EIR method except for those designated in an effective hedging relationship.

Amortised cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium and fee or costs that are an integral part of the EIR. The EIR amortisation is included in finance costs in the Statement of Profit and Loss. Any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption amount is recognised in profit or loss over the period of the borrowings using the EIR method. Fees paid on the establishment of loan facilities are recognised as transaction costs of the loan to the extent that it is probable that some or all of the facility will be drawn down.

Trade and other payables

A payable is classified as ‘trade payable’ if it is in respect of the amount due on account of goods purchased or services received in the normal course of business. These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Company prior to the end of financial year, which are unpaid. They are recognised initially at their fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the EIR method.

Financial guarantee contracts

Financial guarantees issued by the Company are those guarantees that require a payment to be made to reimburse the holder of the guarantee for a loss incurred by the holder because the specified debtor fails to make a payment, when due, to the holder in accordance with the terms of a debt instrument. Financial guarantees are recognised initially as a liability at fair value, adjusted for transactions costs that are directly attributable to the issuance of the guarantee. Subsequently, the liability is measured at the higher of the amount of loss allowance determined as per impairment requirements of Ind AS 109 and the amount recognised less cumulative amortisation.

Embedded derivatives

Derivatives embedded in non-derivative host contracts that are not financial assets within the scope of Ind AS 109 are treated as separate derivatives when their risks and characteristics are not closely related to those of the host contracts and the host contracts are not measured at FVTPL.

A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires. The difference between the carrying amount of a financial liability that has been extinguished or transferred to another party and the consideration paid, including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed, is recognised in profit or loss as other income or finance costs.

2.10 Derivative financial instruments

The Company enters into a variety of derivative financial instruments to manage its exposure to interest rate and foreign exchange rate risks, including foreign exchange forward contracts, interest rate swaps and cross currency swaps.

Derivatives are initially recognised at fair value at the date the derivative contracts are entered into and are subsequently measured to their fair value at the end of each reporting period. The resulting gain or loss is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss immediately unless the derivative is designated as hedging instrument.

2.11 Impairment of financial assets:

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

Expected credit losses are the weighted average of credit losses with the respective risks of default occurring as the weights. Credit loss is the difference between all contractual cash flows that are due to the Company in accordance with the contract and all the cash flows that the Company expects to receive (i.e. all cash shortfalls), discounted at the original effective interest rate (or credit-adjusted effective interest rate for purchased or originated credit-impaired financial assets). The Company estimates cash flows by considering all contractual terms of the financial instrument (for example, prepayment, extension, call and similar options) through the expected life of that financial instrument.

The Company measures the loss allowance for a financial instrument at an amount equal to the lifetime expected credit losses if the credit risk on that financial instrument has increased significantly since initial recognition. If the credit risk on a financial instrument has not increased significantly since initial recognition, the Company measures the loss allowance for that financial instrument at an amount equal to 12-month expected credit losses. 12-month expected credit losses are portion of the lifetime expected credit losses and represent the lifetime cash shortfalls that will result if default occurs within the 12 months after the reporting date and thus, are not cash shortfalls that are predicted over the next 12 months.

If the Company measured loss allowance for a financial instrument at lifetime expected credit loss model in the previous period, but determines at the end of a reporting period that the credit risk has not increased significantly since initial recognition due to improvement in credit quality as compared to the previous period, the Company again measures the loss allowance based on 12-month expected credit losses.

When making the assessment of whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition, the group uses the change in the risk of a default occurring over the expected life of the financial instrument instead of the change in the amount of expected credit losses. To make that assessment, the group compares the risk of a default occurring on the financial instrument as at the reporting date with the risk of a default occurring on the financial instrument as at the date of initial recognition and considers reasonable and supportable information, that is available without undue cost or effort, that is indicative of significant increases in credit risk since initial recognition.

2.12 Investment in Subsidiaries and Associate

A subsidiary is an entity controlled by the Company. Control exists when the Company has power over the entity, is exposed or has rights to variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns by using its power over the entity.

Power is demonstrated through existing rights that give the ability to direct relevant activities, those which significantly affect the entity’s returns.

An associate is an entity over which the Company has significant influence. Significant influence is the power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the investee but is not control or joint control over those policies.

Investments in subsidiaries and associate are carried at cost. The cost comprises price paid to acquire investment and directly attributable cost.

For transition to Ind AS, the Company had elected to continue with the carrying value of its investment in subsidiaries recognised as at the transition date, measured as per the previously applicable Indian GAAP and used that carrying value as its deemed cost as at the transition date.

2.13 Leases

The determination of whether an arrangement is, or contains a lease is based on the substance of the arrangement at the inception of the lease. The arrangement is, or contains a lease if fulfilment of the arrangement is dependent on the use of a specific asset or assets or the arrangement conveys a right to control the use of the asset or assets, even if that right is not explicitly specified in an arrangement.

The Company has applied Ind AS 116 from 1^st April, 2019 onwards using the modified retrospective approach.

a) Arrangements where the Company is the lessee

The company recognises a right-of-use asset and a lease liability at the lease commencement date. The right-of-use asset is initially measured at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, plus any initial direct costs incurred and an estimate of costs to dismantle and remove the underlying asset or to restore the underlying asset or the site on which it is located, less any lease incentives received.

The right-of-use asset is subsequently depreciated using the straight-line method from the commencement date to the earlier of the end of the useful life of the right-of-use asset or the end of the lease term. The estimated useful lives of right-of-use assets are determined on the same basis as those of property and equipment. In addition, the right-of-use asset is periodically reduced by impairment losses, if any, and adjusted for certain re-measurements of the lease liability.

The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at the commencement date, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or company’s incremental borrowing rate. The lease liability is measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. It is remeasured when there is a change in future lease payments.

For short-term and low value leases are classified as operating leases. Payments made under operating leases are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

b) Arrangements where the Company is the lessor

Rental income from operating leases is generally recognised on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Where the rentals are structured solely to increase in line with expected general inflation to compensate for the Company’s expected inflationary cost increases, such increases are recognised in the year in which such benefits accrue.

2.14 Foreign currency transactions and translations

Transactions in foreign currencies are translated to the functional currency of the Company (i.e. INR) at exchange rates at the dates of the transactions. Monetar y assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the reporting date, except for those derivative balances that are within the scope of Ind AS 109 - “Financial Instruments”, are translated to the functional currency at the exchange rate at that date and the related foreign currency gain or loss are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

Foreign exchang e dif ferences re g ard e d as an adjustment to interest costs are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss. Realised or unrealised gain in respect of the settlement or translation of borrowing is recognised as an adjustment to interest cost to the extent of the loss previously recognised as an adjustment to interest cost.

2.15 Employee benefits

a) Employee benefits in the form of Provident Fund, Pension Fund, Superannuation Fund and Employees State Insurance are defined contribution plans. The Company recognizes contribution payable to a defined contribution plan as an expense, when an employee renders the related service. If the contribution payable to the scheme for services received before the balance sheet date exceeds the contribution already paid, the contribution payable to the scheme is recognised as a liability after deducting the contribution already paid. If the contribution already paid exceeds the contribution due for

services received before the balance sheet date, the excess is recognised as an asset to the extent that the pre-payment will lead to, for example, a reduction in future payment or a cash refund.

b) Gratuity liability is defined benefit plans. The cost of providing benefits under the defined benefit plans is determined using the projected unit credit method, with actuarial valuations being carried out at the end of each annual reporting period. Remeasurements of the net defined benefit liability/asset comprise:

i) actuarial gains and losses;

ii) the return on plan assets, excluding amounts included in net interest on the net defined benefit liability/asset; and

iii) any change in the effect of the asset ceiling, excluding amounts included in net interest on the net defined benefit liability/asset.

Remeasurements of net defined benefit liability/asset are charged or credited to other comprehensive income.

c) Compensated absences is other long term employee benefit. The expected cost of accumulating compensated absences is determined by actuarial valuation performed by an independent actuary at each balance sheet date using projected unit credit method on the additional amount expected to be paid/ availed as a result of the unused entitlement that has accumulated at the balance sheet date. Actuarial gains and losses are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

2.16 Taxes on Income

Income tax expense comprises of current tax and deferred tax. It is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised directly in equity or other comprehensive income. In such cases, the tax is also recognised directly in equity or in other comprehensive income.

Current tax

Current tax is the amount of tax payable on the taxable income for the year, determined in accordance with the provisions of the Income Tax Act, 1961.

Deferred tax

Deferred tax is recognised on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the balance sheet and their corresponding tax bases. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are generally recognised for all deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses being carried forward, to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available in future against which those deductible temporary differences and tax losses can be utilised. Such deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognised if the temporary difference arises from initial recognition (other than in a business combination) of assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the taxable profit nor the accounting profit. In addition, deferred tax liabilities are not recognised if the temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of goodwill.

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.

Deferred tax liabilities and assets are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in which the liability is settled or the asset realised, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.

1. Significant Accounting Policies

(a) Compliance with Ind AS:

The financial statements are prepared in accordance with Indian Accounting Standards (“Ind AS”), the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013 (“the Companies Act”), as applicable and guidelines issued by the Securities and Exchange Board of India (“SEBI”). The Ind AS are prescribed under Section 133 of the Act read with Rule 3 of the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 and Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Amendment Rules, 2016.

Accounting policies have been applied consistently to all periods presented in these financial statements.

The financial statements up to the previous year ended 31st March 2017 were prepared in accordance with the Accounting Standards [GAAP] notified under the Companies Act, 2013 and Companies (Accounting Standard) Rules, 2006.

These financial statements are t he first INDAS financial statements of the Company. The Company has adopted all the Indian Accounting Standards and the adoption was carried out in accordance with Ind AS 101 First time adoption of Indian Accounting Standards, with April 1, 2016 as the transition date. Reconciliations and descriptions of the effect of the transition has been summarized in Note no 2.29.

The financial statements correspond to the classification provisions contained in Ind AS 1 - “Presentation of Financial Statements”. All amounts included in the IND AS financial statements are reported in crores of Indian rupees ( R crores) except share and per share data, unless otherwise stated. Due to rounding off, the numbers presented throughout the document may not add up precisely to the totals and percentages may not precisely reflect the absolute figures. Previous year figures have been regrouped / re-arranged, wherever necessary.

First time adoption of Indian Accounting Standards -Overall principle, Mandatory and Optional exemptions

Overall Principle: The company has prepared the opening Balance Sheet (IND AS) on April 1, 2016 (the transition date) by recognising all assets and liabilities whose recognition is required by Ind AS, not recognising items of assets and liabilities which are not permitted by Ind AS, by reclassifying items from previous GAAF to Ind AS as required under Ind AS and applying Ind AS in measurement of recognised assets and liabilities.

Impairment of financial assets:

The Company has applied the impairment requirements of IND AS 109 retrospectively; however, as permitted by IND AS 101, it has used reasonable and supportable information that is available without undue cost or effort to determine the credit risk at the date that financial instruments were initially recognised in order to compare it with the credit risk at the transition date. Further, the Company has not undertaken an exhaustive search for information when determining, at the date of transition to IND AS, whether there have been significant increases in credit risk since initial recognition, as permitted by IND AS 101.

Deemed Cost of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets:

The Company has elected to continue with the carrying value of all its Property, plant and equipment and intangible assets, recognised as of 1st April 2016 (transition date), measured as per the previous GAAP and use that carrying value as its deemed cost as of the transition date.

Determination of lease arrangements:

The Company has applied the principles of Appendix C of IND AS 17 in order to determine if an arrangement existing at the date transition date contains a lease on the basis of facts and circumstances existing at that date.

Equity investments at FVTOCI:

The Company has designated investment in all equity shares, except investment in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates as at FVTOCI on the basis of facts and circumstances that existed at the transition date.

Accounting for Investment in Subsidiary, Joint Venture and Associate:

The Company has availed the optional exemption under “Ind AS 101 First time Adoption of Indian Accounting standards” with respect to Investments in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates. Accordingly, the previous GAAP carrying amount of such investments as on transition date has been taken as deemed cost.

(b) Basis of preparation and presentation of financial statements

These IND AS financial statements have been prepared on the basis of historical cost of convention and on accrual basis of accounting except for the following items which have been measured at Fair Value as required by the relevant Ind AS:''

- Financial instruments classified as fair value through other comprehensive income or fair value through profit or loss; and

- The defined benefit asset/ (liability) are recognised as the present value of defined benefit obligation less fair value of plan assets.

Historical cost is generally based on the fair value of the consideration given in exchange for goods and services. 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, regardless of whether that price is directly observable or estimated using another valuation technique.

C) Use of Estimates & Judgements

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with Ind AS requires the management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies of the Company with respect to the figures reported in the financial statements. Application of accounting policies that require critical accounting estimates involving complex and subjective judgments and the use of assumptions in these financial statements have been disclosed in note. Such accounting estimates could change from period to period and the actual results may differ from such estimates. Differences between actual results and estimates and changes in estimates are recognised in the financial statements in the period in which the results are known/ materialized and their effects, if material are disclosed in the notes to financial statements.

The estimates and judgments used in the preparation of these IND AS financial statements are continuously reviewed by the Company and are based on historical experience and various other assumptions and factors (including expectations of future events) that the Company believes to be reasonable under the existing circumstances.

The said estimates are based on the facts and events, that existed as at the reporting date, or that occurred after the date but provide additional evidence about the conditions existing as on the reporting date.

Information about such estimates and judgments are included in the relevant notes together with the basis of calculation for relevant line item in the financial statements. Estimates and judgments are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that may have a financial impact on the Company and that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.

(d) Property, Plant & Equipment

Property, plant and equipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, if any. Cost includes expenditures directly attributable to the cost of acquisition of the asset. Cost includes related taxes, duties, freight, insurance etc., attributable to acquisition and installation of assets and borrowing cost incurred up to the date of commencing operations, but excludes duties and taxes that are recoverable from taxing authorities.

Subsequent expenditure relating to property, plant and equipment is capitalised only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with these will flow to the Company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably.

The cost of property, plant and equipment not available for use before such date are disclosed under capital work - inprogress.

An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset. Any gain or loss arising on the disposal or retirement of an item of property, plant and equipment is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and is recognised in the profit or loss.

Upon transition to Ind AS, the Company has decided to continue with the carrying value of all its property, plant and equipment recognised as at f''April 2016 measures as per the previous GAAP and use that carrying value as the deemed cost of property, plant and equipment. Refer Note 2.01 for detailed classification of the Company''s assets under various heads.

Depreciation:

The Company depreciates property, plant and equipment over the estimated useful life on a Straight-line basis from the date the assets are available for use.Straight line method has been adopted for providing depreciation on fixed assets. The assets are depreciated over the useful life as prescribed in Schedule II of The Companies Act, 2013. The useful lives have been determined based on Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013.

The residual values are not more than 5% of the original cost of the asset. The estimated useful life, residual value and depreciation method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period and the effects of changes in estimates if any are accounted at the end of each reporting period. Gains and Losses on disposal are determined by comparing proceeds with carrying amount and these are included in the Statement of Profit and loss.

(e) Intangible Assets:

Intangible assets with finite useful lives that are acquired separately are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses. Amortisation is recognised on a straight line basis over their estimated useful lives.The estimated useful life and amortisation method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimate being accounted for in the financial statements on a prospective basis. Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives that are acquired separately are carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses. An intangible asset is derecognised upon its sale or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise. Gains/ losses arising upon such derecognition are charged to the profit or loss account as a differential figure between net disposal value and carrying value in books. On transition to Ind AS, the Company has elected to continue with the carrying value of intangible assets recognised as at 1^st April 2016 measured as per the previous GAAP and use that carrying value as the deemed cost of intangible assets.

(f) Business Combinations :

Business combinations have been accounted for using the method under the provisions of IND AS 103, Business Combinations.

Merger of Indsil Energy and Electro Chemicals Private Limited:

The Company on 01^st April 2017, acquired by way of merger (business combination between entities under common control), the entire assets and liabilities of its group Company, Indsil Energy and Electrochemicals Private Limited and obtained approval of the National Company Law Tribunal vide order no CP/84/CAA/2018 dated 04.05.2018 & 08.05.2018. Accordingly, the financial statements for the year ended 31st March, 2018 presents the incomes, expenditures, assets and liabilities of the merged entity.

Attention is brought to the fact that, the Pooling of Interest method under IND AS 103 provides that where a business combination takes place after the date of transition, the prior period information shall be restated only from that date. Therefore, these Ind AS financial statements of the Company presents merged figures for the financial year 2017-18 while the comparatives for the previous years’ are exclusive of merger impact and therefore the financials are not comparable to that extent.

Business combination between entities under common control is accounted for at fair value. As provided in the IND AS 103 - for business combinations, the Company accounts for business combinations involving entities or businesses under common control using the pooling of interests method. The ‘Pooling of Interest’ method is considered to involve the following.

- The assets and liabilities of the combining entities are reflected at their carrying amounts.

- No adjustments are made to reflect fair values, or recognise any new assets or liabilities. The only adjustments that are made are to harmonise accounting policies.

- The financial information in the financial statements in respect of prior periods should be restated as if the business combination had occurred from the beginning of the preceding period in the financial statements, irrespective of the actual date of the combination. However, if business combination had occurred after that date, the prior period information shall be restated only from that date.

The consideration for the business combination may consist of securities, cash or other assets. Securities shall be recorded at nominal value. In determining the value of the consideration, assets other than cash shall be considered at their fair values. The balance of the retained earnings appearing in the financial statements of the transferor is aggregated with the corresponding balance appearing in the financial statements of the transferee. Alternatively, it is transferred to General Reserve, if any. The identity of the reserves shall be preserved and shall appear in the financial statements of the transferee in the same form in which they appeared in the financial statements of the transferor. As a result of preserving the identity, reserves which are available for distribution as dividend before the business combination would also be available for distribution as dividend after the business combination. The difference, if any, between the amount recorded as share capital issued plus any additional consideration in the form of cash or other assets and the amount of share capital of the transferor shall be transferred to capital reserve and should be presented separately from other capital reserves with disclosure of its nature and purpose in the notes.

(g) Impairment of assets:

The Company, on a periodical basis reviews the carrying value of assets to check for indications of impairment in its tangible as well as intangible assets. An asset is treated as impaired when the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its estimated recoverable value. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated and an impairment loss equal to the excess of the carrying amount over its recoverable value is recognised as an impairment loss.

(h) Financial Instruments:

A financial instrument is defined as any contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one entity and a financial liability or equity instrument of another entity. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities (other than Financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss) are added to or deducted from the fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are recognised immediately in profit or loss.

Non - Derivative financial instruments:

Non derivative financial instruments consist of financial assets, which include cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, unbilled revenues, employee and other advances, investments in equity and debt securities and eligible current and non-current assets. Financial assets are derecognised when substantial risks and rewards of ownership of financial assets have been transferred or when the entity does not retain control over the financial asset. Financial liabilities includes long and short term loans and borrowings, bank overdrafts, trade payables, eligible current and non-current liabilities. Non - Derivative financial instruments are initially recognised at fair value. Subsequent recognition of financial instruments is as follows.

Cash & Cash Equivalents:

The Company''s cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on hand and in banks and demand deposits with banks, which can be withdrawn at any time, without prior notice or penalty on the principal. For the purposes of the cash flow statement, cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, in banks and demand deposits with banks, net of outstanding bank overdrafts that are repayable on demand and are considered part of the Company''s cash management system. In the Ind AS Balance Sheet, bank overdrafts are presented under borrowings within current liabilities.

Investments:

Financial instruments measured at amortised cost:

Debt instruments that meet the following criteria are measured at an amortised cost (except for debt instruments that are designated at fair value through Profit or Loss (FVTPL) on initial recognition):

- The asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets in order to collect contractual cash flows; and

- The contractual terms of the instrument give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payment of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

Financial instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI):

Debt instruments that meet the following criteria are measured at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI) (except for debt instruments that are designated at fair value through Profit or Loss (FVTPL) on initial recognition)

- the asset is held within a business model whose objective is achieved both by collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial asset; and

- the contractual terms of the instrument give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payment of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

- Interest income is recognised in statement of profit and loss for FVTOCI debt instruments. Other changes in fair value of FVTOCI financial assets are recognised in other comprehensive income. When the investment is disposed - off, the cumulative gain or loss previously accumulated in reserves is transferred to statement of profit and loss.

Financial instruments measured at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL):

Instruments that do not meet the amortised cost or FVTOCI criteria are measured at FVTPL. Financial assets at FVTPL are measured at fair value at the end of each reporting period, with any gains or losses arising on re-measurement recognised in statement of profit and loss. The gain or loss on disposal is recognised in statement of profit and loss.Interest income is recognised in statement of profit and loss for FVTPL debt instruments. Dividend on financial assets at FVTPL is recognised when the Company''s right to receive dividend is established.

Investments in equity instruments designated to be classified as FVTOCI:

The Company carries investment in equity instruments which are not held for trading. The Company has elected the FVTOCI irrevocable option for these instruments. Movements in fair value of these investments are recognised in other comprehensive income and the gain or loss is not reclassified to statement of profit and loss on disposal of these investments. Dividends from these investments are recognised in statement of profit and loss when the Company''s right to receive dividends is established.

Investments in subsidiaries:

Investments in subsidiaries are measured at cost less impairment. The Company has availed the optional exemption under “Ind AS 101 First time Adoption of Indian Accounting standards” with respect to Investments in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates. Accordingly, the previous GAAP carrying amount of such investments as on transition date has been taken as deemed cost.

Other financial assets:

Other financial assets are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. They are presented as current assets, except for those maturing later than 12 months after the reporting date which are presented as non-current assets.These are initially recognised at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment losses. These comprise trade receivables, unbilled revenues, cash and cash equivalents and other assets.

Trade and other payables:

Trade and other payables are initially recognised at fair value, and subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method. For these financial instruments, the carrying amounts approximate fair value due to the short-term maturity of these instruments.

Derivative financial instruments:

The Company is exposed to foreign currency fluctuations on foreign currency assets, liabilities, net investment in foreign operations and forecasted cash flows denominated in foreign currency. The Company limits the effect of foreign exchange rate fluctuations by following established risk management policies including the use of derivatives. The Company enters into derivative financial instruments where the counter party is primarily a bank. Derivatives are recognised and measured at fair value. Attributable transaction costs are recognised in statement of profit and loss as cost. Subsequent to initial recognition, derivative financial instruments are measured as described below:

Cash Flow Hedges:

Changes in the fair value of a cash flow - derivative hedging instrument is recognised in other comprehensive income and held in cash flow hedging reserve, net of taxes, a component of equity, to the extent that the hedge is effective. Where the hedge is ineffective, changes in fair value are recognised in the statement of profit and loss and reported within foreign exchange gains/ (losses), net, within results from operating activities. If the hedging instrument no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting, then hedge accounting is discontinued prospectively. If the hedging instrument expires or is sold, terminated or exercised, the cumulative gain or loss on the hedging instrument recognised in cash flow hedging reserve till the period the hedge was effective remains in cash flow hedging reserve until the forecasted transaction occurs. The cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in the cash flow hedging reserve is transferred to the statement of profit and loss upon the occurrence of the related forecasted transaction. If the forecasted transaction is no longer expected to occur, such cumulative balance is immediately recognised in the statement of profit and loss.

Others:

Changes in fair value of foreign currency derivative instruments not designated as cash flow hedges are recognised in the statement of profit and loss and reported within foreign exchange gains/(losses), net within results from operating activities. Changes in fair value and gains/ (losses), net, on settlement of foreign Currency derivative instruments relating to borrowings, which have not been designated as hedges are recorded in finance expense.

Derecognition of financial instruments:

The Company derecognises a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expires or it transfers the financial asset and the transfer qualifies for derecognition under Ind AS 109. If the Company retains substantially all the risks and rewards of a transferred financial asset, the Company continues to recognise the financial asset and also recognises a borrowing for the proceeds received. A financial liability (or a part of a financial liability) is derecognised from the Company’s balance sheet when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged or cancelled or expires.

Foreign Exchange gains and losses:

For financial liabilities that are denominated in a foreign currency and are measured at amortised cost at the end of each reporting period, the foreign exchange gains and losses are determined based on the amortised cost of the instruments and are recognised in ‘Other income/ expenses’. The fair value of financial liabilities denominated in a foreign currency is determined in that foreign currency and translated at the spot rate at the end of the reporting period. For financial liabilities that are measured as at FVTPL, the foreign exchange component forms part of the fair value gains or losses and is recognised in profit or loss.

Impairment of financial assets:

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

Expected credit losses are the weighted average of credit losses with the respective risks of default occurring as the weights. Credit loss is the difference between all contractual cash flows that are due to the Company in accordance with the contract and all the cash flows that the Company expects to receive (i.e. all cash shortfalls), discounted at the original effective interest rate (or credit-adjusted effective interest rate for purchased or originated credit-impaired financial assets). The Company estimates cash flows by considering all contractual terms of the financial instrument (for example, prepayment, extension, call and similar options) through the expected life of that financial instrument.

The Company measures the loss allowance for a financial instrument at an amount equal to the lifetime expected credit losses if the credit risk on that financial instrument has increased significantly since initial recognition. If the credit risk on a financial instrument has not increased significantly since initial recognition, the Company measures the loss allowance for that financial instrument at an amount equal to 12-month expected credit losses. 12-month expected credit losses are portion of the life-time expected credit losses and represent the lifetime cash shortfalls that will result if default occurs within the 12 months after the reporting date and thus, are not cash shortfalls that are predicted over the next 12 months. If the Company measured loss allowance for a financial instrument at lifetime expected credit loss model in the previous period, but determines at the end of a reporting period that the credit risk has not increased significantly since initial recognition due to improvement in credit quality as compared to the previous period, the Company again measures the loss allowance based on 12 - month expected credit losses.

When making the assessment of whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition, the group uses the change in the risk of a default occurring over the expected life of the financial Instrument instead of the change in the amount of expected credit losses. To make that assessment, the group compares the risk of a default occurring on the financial instrument as at the reporting date with the risk of a default occurring on the financial instrument as at the date of initial recognition and considers reasonable and supportable information, that is available without undue cost or effort, that is indicative of significant increases in credit risk since initial recognition.

(I) Valuation of Inventories:

Inventories such as raw materials and stores are valued at cost on a weighted average basis while the finished goods and work-in-progress are valued at costs (incl. overheads as apportioned) or net realizable value whichever is lower. In case of goods in transits, cost represents the cost incurred up to the stage at which the goods in transit. The cost of finished goods includes raw material costs, direct labour costs, proportionate fixed and variable overheads costs while the raw materials costs consists of the purchase costs. Note No. 2.22 to the statement of profit and loss presents details about the consumption of materials during the year and the closing balance of inventories as on 31 March 2018.

(j) Translation and Recognition of Foreign Currency Transactions:

The transactions entered into by the Company that are in a currency other than the entity''s functional currency are recognised at the rates of exchange prevailing at the dates of the transactions. At the end of each reporting period, monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing at that date. Non-monetary items carried at fair value that are denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing at the date when the fair value was determined. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are not retranslated. Exchange differences on monetary items are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they arise.

(k) Revenue Recognition:

- Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable and Sales of goods are recognised when the risk and rewards of ownership are passed on to customers, which is generally on dispatch of goods. Amounts disclosed as revenue are inclusive of excise duty and net of returns, trade allowances and rebates. The Company recognises revenue when the amount of revenue can be reliably measured, it is probable that future economic benefits will flow to the entity and specific criteria have been met for each of the Company''s activities as described below.

- Accrual basis of accounting is followed by the Company for all regular sources of income and expenses.

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

- Dividend, Interest, Lease Rent other income are accounted on accrual basis except those items with significant uncertainties.

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

- Export incentives are recognised when the right to receive payment / credit is established and no significant uncertainty as to measurability or collectability exists. Revenue from carbon credits/ REC entitlements are recognised on delivery thereof or sale of rights therein, as the case may be, in terms of the contract with the respective buyer

(l) Borrowing Costs

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

(m) Dividends

Liability for interim dividend is recorded as a liability on the date of declaration by the Company''s Board of Directors. Final dividend on shares is recorded as a liability on the date of approval by the share holders at the annual general meeting.

(n) Earnings per share

Basic Earnings per share is calculated by dividing the Net Profit after tax attributable to the equity shareholders by the weighted average number of Equity Shares outstanding during the year.

Diluted Earnings per share is calculated by dividing the Net Profit after tax attributable to the equity share holders by the weighted average number of equity shares including potential equity shares.

(o) Finance Costs:

Finance cost comprise interest cost on borrowings, gain or losses arising on re-measurement of financial assets at FVTPL, gains/ (losses) on translation or settlement of foreign currency borrowings and changes in fair value and gains/ (losses) on settlement of related derivative instruments.

(q) Employee Benefits:

- Short term employees benefits:

For benefits accruing to employees in respect of wages and salaries, annual leave and other short term benefits, the liability is recognised in the period in which the related service is rendered and when such benefits accrue to the employees in exchange of that service.

Post - Employment and pension plans:

- The Company participates in various employee benefit plans. Pensions and other post-employment benefits are classified as either defined contribution plans or defined benefit plans. The expenditure for defined contribution plans is recognised as an expense during the period when the employee provides service. Under a defined benefit plan, it is the Company''s obligation to provide agreed benefits to the employees. The present value of the defined benefit obligations is calculated by an independent actuary using the projected unit credit method.

- Actuarial gains or losses are immediately recognised in other comprehensive income, net of taxes and permanently excluded from profit or loss. Further, the profit or loss will no longer include an expected return on plan assets. Instead net interest recognised in profit or loss is calculated by applying the discount rate used to measure the defined benefit obligation to the net defined benefit liability or asset. The actual return on the plan assets above or below the discount rate is recognised as part of re-measurement of net defined liability or asset through other comprehensive Income, net of taxes.

The Company has the following employee benefit plans: Provident Fund:

Employees receive benefits from a provident fund, which is a defined benefit plan. The employer and employees each make periodic contributions to the plan. A portion of the contribution is made to the approved provident fund trust managed by the Company while the remainder of the contribution is made to the government administered pension fund. The contributions to the trust managed by the Company is accounted for as a defined benefit plan as the Company is liable for any shortfall in the fund assets based on the government specified minimum rates of return.

Gratuity:

In accordance with the Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972, applicable for Indian companies, the Company provides for a lump sum payment to eligible employees, at retirement or termination of employment based on the last drawn salary and years of employment with the Company. The gratuity fund is managed by the third-party fund managers.

The Company recognises actuarial gains and losses in other comprehensive income, net of taxes.

- Termination Benefits:

Termination benefits are expensed when the Company can no longer withdraw the offer of those benefits.

(r) Taxes on Income:

Income tax comprises current and deferred tax. Income tax expense is recognised in the statement of profit and loss except to the extent it relates to a business combination, or items directly recognised in equity or in other comprehensive income.

- Current tax on income:

Current income tax for current and prior periods is recognised at the amount expected to be paid to or recovered from the tax authorities, using the tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting date. The Company offsets current tax assets and current tax liabilities, where it has a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and where it intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. The income tax provision for the interim period is made based on the best estimate of the annual average tax rate expected to be applicable for the full financial year.

- Deferred tax:

Deferred income tax is recognised using the balance sheet approach. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognised for deductible and taxable temporary differences arising between the tax base of assets and liabilities and their carrying amount in the financial statements, except when the deferred income tax arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and affects neither accounting nor taxable profits or loss at the time of the transaction.

Deferred income tax assets are recognised to the extent it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences and the carry forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilised.

Deferred income tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences except in respect of taxable temporary differences that is expected to reverse within the tax holiday period, taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates and foreign branches where the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference can be controlled and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future.

The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred income tax asset to be utilised.

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.

The Company offsets deferred income tax assets and liabilities, where it has a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets against current tax liabilities, and they relate to taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either the same taxable entity, or on different taxable entities where there is an intention to settle the current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis or their tax assets and liabilities will be realised simultaneously.

(s) Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets:

Provisions involving substantial degree of estimation in measurement are recognised when there is a present obligation as a result of past events and it is probable that there will be an outflow of resources. Contingent liabilities are not recognised but are disclosed in the notes to financial statements. Contingent assets are not recognised but disclosed in the financial statements when an inflow of economic benefits is probable. Provisions, contingent liabilities are reviewed at each balance sheet date and adjusted to reflect the current best estimate.

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).

Present obligations, legal or constructive, arising under onerous contracts are recognised and measured as provisions. An onerous contract is considered to exist where the Company has a contract under which the unavoidable costs of meeting the obligations under the contract exceed the economic benefits expected to be received from the contract. Provisions for the expected cost of warranty obligations are recognised at the date of sale of the relevant products, at the management''s best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the Company''s obligation.

(u) Segment Reporting:

An operating segment is a component of the Company that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses, including revenues and expenses that relate to transactions with any of the Company''s other components, and for which discrete financial information is available. All operating segments'' operating results are reviewed regularly by the Company''s Chief Executive Officer (CEO), who is the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM), to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segments and assess their performance. Information reported to the CODM for the purpose of resource allocation and assessment of segment performance focuses on the type of goods or services delivered or provided.

The Company has two reportable segments, namely Smelter and Power.These business units offer different products and services, and are managed separately because they require different technology and marketing strategies. Performance is measured based on segment profit before tax, as included in the internal management reports that are reviewed by the Company''s CODM. Segment profit is used to measure performance as management believes that such information is the most relevant in evaluating the results of certain segments relative to other entities that operate within these industries. Inter-segment pricing is determined on arm''s length basis.

(v) Leases:

As a lessee: Leases where significant risks and rewards of ownership are not transferred to the Company are called Operating leases.
