2 Summary of significant accounting policies
a) Revenue recognition
Revenue from contracts with customers is recognised
when control of the goods or services are transferred to
the customer at an amount that reflects the consideration
to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange
for those goods or services.
Sale of goods
For sale of goods, revenue is recognised when control of
the goods has transferred at a point in time i.e. when the
goods have been dispatched to the location of customer.
Following dispatch, the customer has full discretion over
the responsibility, manner of distribution, price to sell the
goods and bears the risks of obsolescence and loss in
relation to the goods. A receivable is recognised by the
Company when the goods are dispatched to the customer
as this represents the point in time at which the right to
consideration becomes unconditional, as only the
passage of time is required before payment is due.
Payment is due within 10-15 days. The Company
considers the effects of variable consideration, non-cash
consideration, and consideration payable to the customer
(if any).
Variable consideration
If the consideration in a contract includes a variable
amount, estimates the amount of consideration to which
it will be entitled in exchange for transferring the goods to
the customer. The variable consideration is estimated at
contract inception and constrained until it is highly
probable that a significant revenue reversal in the amount
of cumulative revenue recognised will not occur when the
associated uncertainty with the variable consideration is
subsequently resolved. The Company recognizes changes
in the estimated amount of variable consideration in the
period in which the change occurs. Some contracts for the
sale of goods provide customers with volume rebates and
pricing incentives, which give rise to variable
consideration.
Rebates are offset against amounts payable by the
customer. To estimate the variable consideration for the
expected future rebates, the Company applies the most
likely amount method for contracts with a single-volume
threshold. The selected method that best predicts the
amount of variable consideration is primarily driven by
the number of volume thresholds contained in the
contract. The Company then applies the requirements on
constraining estimates of variable consideration and
recognises a refund liability for the expected future
rebates.
Contract balances
Trade receivables
A receivable represents the Company''s right to an
amount of consideration that is unconditional (i.e., only
the passage of time is required before payment of the
consideration is due). Refer to accounting policies of
financial assets in Note No 2(i) Financial assets - initial
recognition and subsequent measurement.
Contract liabilities (which the Company refer to as
advance from customer)
A contract liability is the obligation to transfer goods or
services to a customer for which the Company has
received consideration (or an amount of consideration is
due) from the customer. If a customer pays consideration
before the Company transfers goods or services to the
customer, a contract liability is recognised when the
payment is made or the payment is due (whichever is
earlier). Contract liabilities are recognised as revenue
when the Company performs under the contract.
The Company presents revenues net of indirect taxes in its
Statement of Profit and Loss.
Cost to obtain a contract
The Company pays sales commission to its selling agents
for each contract that they obtain for the Company. The
Company has elected to apply the optional practical
expedient for costs to obtain a contract which allows the
Company to immediately expense sales commissions
(included in ''commission on sales'' under other expenses)
because the amortization period of the asset that the
Company otherwise would have used is one year or less.
Costs to fulfil a contract i.e. freight, insurance and other
selling expenses are recognized as an expense in the
period in which related revenue is recognised.
Financing components
The Company does not expect to have any contracts
where the period between the transfer of the promised
goods or services to the customer and payment by the
customer exceeds one year. As a consequence, the
Company does not adjust any of the transaction prices for
the time value of money.
Rendering of services
Service income includes job work and its revenue is
recognised when the performance obligation to render
the services are completed as per contractually agreed
terms.
b) Other revenue streams
Interest income
Interest income from debt instrument is recognised using
the effective interest rate (EIR) method. EIR is the rate
which exactly discounts the estimated future cash
receipts over the expected life of the financial instrument
to the gross carrying amount of the financial asset. When
calculating the EIR the Company estimates the expected
cash flows by considering all the contractual terms of the
financial instrument (for example, prepayments,
extensions, call and similar options) but does not
consider the expected credit losses.
Dividend income
Dividends are recognised in the Statement of Profit and
Loss only when the Company''s right to receive the
payment is established.
Export incentives
Export incentives principally comprise of duty drawback.
The benefit under these incentive schemes are available
based on the guideline formulated for respective
schemes by the government authorities. Duty drawback
is recognized as revenue on accrual basis to the extent it is
probable that realization is certain.
Government grants
Grants from the government are recognized at their fair
value where there is a reasonable assurance that the
grant will be received and the Company will comply with
all attached conditions.
Government grants which are revenue in nature and are
towards compensation for the qualifying costs, incurred
by the Company, are recognised as income in the
Statement of Profit and Loss in the period in which such
costs are incurred.Government grants relating to the
purchase of property, plant and equipment are included
in non-current liabilities as deferred income and are
credited to the Statement of Profit and Loss on a straight¬
line basis over the expected lives of the related assets and
presented within other income.
c) Income taxes
Income tax expense for the year comprises of current tax
and deferred tax. Income tax is recognized in the
Statement of Profit and Loss except to the extent that it
relates to an item which is recognised in other
comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case
the tax is recognized in ''Other comprehensive income'' or
directly in equity, respectively.
The Income tax expense or credit for the period is the tax
payable on the current period''s taxable income based on
the applicable income tax rate for each jurisdiction
adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities
attributable to temporary differences and to unused tax
losses.
Current tax
Current tax is based on tax rates applicable for respective
years on the basis of tax law enacted and substantively
enacted at the end of the reporting period. The Company
establishes provisions where appropriate on the basis of
amounts expected to be paid to the tax authorities.
Current is payable on taxable profit, which differs from
profit and loss in financial statements. Current tax is
charged to Statement of Profit and Loss. Provision for
current tax is made after taking in to consideration
benefits admissible under Income Tax Act, 1961.
Deferred tax
Deferred income taxes are calculated without discounting
the temporary differences between carrying amounts of
assets and liabilities and there tax base using the tax laws
that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the
reporting date. However deferred tax is not provided on
the initial recognition of assets and liabilities unless the
related transaction is business combination or affects tax
or accounting profit. Tax losses available to the carried
forward and other income tax credit available to the
entity are assessed for recognition as deferred tax assets.
Deferred tax liabilities are always provided for in full.
Deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is
probable that they will be able to utilize against future
taxable income.
Deferred tax asset are recognised to the extent that is
probable that the underlying tax loss or deductible
temporary differences will be utilized against future
taxable income. This is assessed based on Company''s
forecast of future operating income at each reporting
date.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset where the
entity has a right and intention to set off current tax assets
and liabilities from the same taxation authority.
Minimum Alternative Tax (MAT)
Minimum Alternate Tax credit entitlement paid in
accordance with tax laws, which gives rise to future
economic benefit in form of adjustment to future tax
liability, is considered as an asset to the extent
management estimate its recovery in future years.
d) 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 and the arrangement conveys a right to use the
asset or assets, even if that right is not explicitly specified
in an arrangement.
As a lessee
The Company''s lease asset classes primarily consist of
leases for buildings. The Company assesses whether a
contract contains a lease, at inception of a contract. A
contract is, or contains, a lease if the contract conveys the
right to control the use of an identified asset for a period
of time in exchange for consideration. To assess whether a
contract conveys the right to control the use of an
identified asset, the Company assesses whether: (i) the
contract involves the use of an identified asset (ii) the
Company has substantially all of the economic benefits
from use of the asset through the period of the lease and
(iii) the Company has the right to direct the use of the
asset. At the date of commencement of the lease, the
Company recognizes a right-of-use (ROU) asset and a
corresponding lease liability for all lease arrangements in
which it is a lessee, except for leases with a term of 12
months or less (short-term leases) and low value leases.
For these short-term and low-value leases, the Company
recognizes the lease payments as an operating expense
on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Certain
lease arrangements includes the options to extend or
terminate the lease before the end of the lease term. ROU
assets and lease liabilities includes these options when it
is reasonably certain that they will be exercised. The ROU
assets are initially recognized at cost, which comprises the
initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for any lease
payments made at or prior to the commencement date of
the lease plus any initial direct costs less any lease
incentives. They are subsequently measured at cost less
accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. ROU
assets are depreciated from the commencement date on
a straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease term and
useful life of the underlying asset. ROU assets are
evaluated for recoverability whenever events or changes
in circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may
not be recoverable. For the purpose of impairment
testing, the recoverable amount (i.e. the higher of the fair
value less cost to sell and the value-in-use) is determined
on an individual asset basis unless the asset does not
generate cash flows that are largely independent of those
from other assets. In such cases, the recoverable amount
is determined for the Cash Generating Unit (CGU) to
which the asset belongs. The lease liability is initially
measured at amortized cost at the present value of the
future lease payments. The lease payments are
discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or,
if not readily determinable, using the incremental
borrowing rates . Lease liabilities are remeasured with a
corresponding adjustment to the related ROU asset if the
Company changes its assessment of whether it will
exercise an extension or a termination option. Lease
liability and ROU assets have been separately presented
in the Balance Sheet and lease payments have been
classified as financing cash flows.
As a lessor
Lease income from operating leases where the Company
is a lessor is recognised in the statement of profit and loss
on a straight- line basis over the lease term.
e) Impairment of non-financial assets
Assessment for impairment is done at each Balance Sheet
date as to whether there is any indication that a non¬
financial asset may be impaired. Indefinite-life intangibles
are subject to a review for impairment annually or more
frequently if events or circumstances indicate that it is
necessary.
For the purpose of assessing impairment, the smallest
identifiable Company of assets that generates cash
inflows from continuing use that are largely independent
of the cash inflows from other assets or Company of
assets is considered as a cash generating unit. Goodwill
acquired in a business combination is, from the
acquisition date, allocated to each of the Company''s cash¬
generating units that are expected to benefit from the
synergies of the combination, irrespective of whether
other assets or liabilities of the acquire are assigned to
those units.
If any indication of impairment exists, an estimate of the
recoverable amount of the individual asset/cash
generating unit is made. Asset/cash generating unit
whose carrying value exceeds their recoverable amount
are written down to the recoverable amount by
recognizing the impairment loss as an expense in the
Statement of Profit and Loss. The impairment loss is
allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any
goodwill (if any) allocated to the cash generating unit and
then to the other assets of the unit pro rata based on the
carrying amount of each asset in the unit. Recoverable
amount is higher of an asset''s or cash generating unit''s
fair value less cost of disposal and its value in use. Value in
use is the present value of estimated future cash flows
expected to arise from the continuing use of an asset or
cash generating unit and from its disposal at the end of its
useful life. Assessment is also done at each Balance Sheet
date as to whether there is any indication that an
impairment loss recognized for an asset in prior
accounting periods may no longer exist or may have
decreased. An impairment loss is reversed if there has
been a change in the estimates used to determine the
recoverable amount. An impairment loss is reversed only
to the extent that the assets carrying amount does not
exceed the carrying amount that would have been
determined, net of depreciation and amortization, if no
impairment loss had been recognized. An impairment
loss recognized for goodwill is not reversed in subsequent
periods.
During the year under review, the Company engaged a
Chartered Engineer, to conduct a technical assessment of
certain machinery and equipment at our manufacturing
facility located in Kala-Amb, Himachal Pradesh.
Based on a detailed physical inspection and technical
evaluation, it was observed that a number of machines,
primarily injection moulding and tube filling equipment,
have become technologically obsolete and are no longer
supported by OEMs for service or spare parts. As a result,
the operational efficiency of these assets has significantly
declined.
Following the expert''s recommendation, the carrying
values of these assets have been impaired to reflect their
recoverable (scrap/realisable) value. The total
impairment charge recognized during the year amounts
to ?286 lakhs. This step is in line with the Company''s
prudent approach to asset management and financial
reporting.
f) Cash and cash equivalents
For the purpose of presentation in the statement of cash
flows, cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand,
deposits held at call with financial institutions, other
short-term, highly liquid investments with original
maturities of three months or less that are readily
convertible to know amounts of cash and which are
subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value, and
bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within
borrowings in current liabilities in the balance sheet.
g) Inventories
(i) Raw materials, packaging materials and stores and
spare parts are valued at the lower of weighted
average cost and net realizable value. Cost includes
purchase price, taxes (excluding levies or taxes
subsequently recoverable by the enterprise from the
concerned revenue authorities), freight inwards and
other expenditure incurred in bringing such
inventories to their present location and condition.
However, these items are considered to be realizable
at cost if finished products in which they will be used
are expected to be sold at or above cost.
(ii) Work in progress, manufactured finished goods and
traded goods are valued at the lower of weighted
average cost and net realizable value. Cost of work in
progress and manufactured finished goods is
determined on the weighted average basis and
comprises direct material, cost of conversion and
other costs incurred in bringing these inventories to
their present location and condition.
(iii) Provision for obsolescence on inventories is made on
the basis of management''s estimate based on
demand and market of the inventories.
(iv) Net realizable 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.
(v) The comparison of cost and net realizable value is
made on an item by item basis.
h) Investments and Other Financial Assets
(I) Classification
The Company classifies its financial assets in the following
measurement categories:
- those to be measured subsequently at fair value
(either through other comprehensive income, or
through profit or loss), and
- those measured at amortized cost.
The classification depends on the entity''s business model
for managing the financial assets and the contractual
terms of the cash flows.
For assets measured at fair value, gains and losses will
either be recorded in Statement of Profit and Loss or
other comprehensive income. For investments in debt
instruments, this will depend on the business model in
which the investment is held. For investments in equity
instruments, this will depend on whether the Company
has made an irrevocable election at the time of initial
recognition to account for the equity investment at fair
value through other comprehensive income.
The Company reclassifies debt investments when and
only when its business model for managing those assets
changes.
(ii) Initial measurement
At initial recognition, the Company measures a financial
asset at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial asset
not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs
that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the
financial asset. Transaction costs of financial assets
carried at fair value through profit or loss are expensed in
profit or loss.
(iii) Subsequent measurement
Debt instruments
Subsequent measurement of debt instruments depends
on the Company''s business model for managing the asset
and the cash flow characteristics of the asset. There are
three measurement categories into which the Company
classifies its debt instruments:
⢠Amortized cost: Assets that are held for collection of
contractual cash flows where those cash flows represent
solely payments of principal and interest are measured at
amortized cost. A gain or loss on a debt investment that is
subsequently measured at amortized cost and is not part
of a hedging relationship is recognised in Statement of
Profit and Loss when the asset is derecognized or
impaired. Interest income from these financial assets is
included in finance income using the effective interest
rate method.
⢠Fair Value through Other Comprehensive Income
(FVOCI): Assets that are held for collection of contractual
cash flows and for selling the financial assets, where the
assets'' cash flows represent solely payments of principal
and interest, are measured at FVOCI. Movements in the
carrying amount are taken through OCI, except for the
recognition of impairment gains or losses, interest
revenue and foreign exchange gains and losses which are
recognized in profit and loss. When the financial asset is
derecognized, the cumulative gain or loss previously
recognized in OCI is reclassified from equity to profit or
loss and recognized in other gains/ (losses). Interest
income from these financial assets is included in other
income using the effective interest rate method. At
present no financial assets fulfil this condition.
⢠Fair Value Through Profit or Loss(FVTPL): Assets that
do not meet the criteria for amortized cost or FVOCI are
measured at FVTPL. A gain or loss on a debt investment
that is subsequently measured at fair value through profit
or loss and is not part of a hedging relationship is
recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss and
presented net in the Statement of Profit and Loss within
other gains/(losses) in the period in which it arises.
Interest income from these financial assets is included in
other income.
Equity instruments
All equity investments in scope of Ind AS 109, are
measured at fair value. At Equity instruments which are
held for trading are classified as at FVTPL. For all other
equity instruments, the Company may make an
irrevocable election to present in other comprehensive
income subsequent changes in the fair value. The
Company makes such election on an instrument by
instrument basis. The classification is made on initial
recognition and is irrevocable.
Where the Company''s management has elected to
present fair value gains and losses on equity investments
in other comprehensive income, there is no subsequent
reclassification of fair value gains and losses to the
Statement of Profit and Loss, even on sale of investment.
Dividends from such investments are recognized in the
Statement of Profit and Loss as other income when the
Company''s right to receive payments is established.
Changes in the fair value of financial assets at fair value
through profit or loss are recognized in other gain/
(losses) in the Statement of Profit and Loss. Impairment
losses (and reversal of impairment losses) on equity
investments measured at FVOCI are not reported
separately from other changes in fair value.
Investments in subsidiaries
Investments are carried at cost less accumulated
impairment losses, if any Where an indication of
impairment exists, the carrying amount of the investment
is assessed and written down immediately to its
recoverable amount. On disposal of investments, the
difference between net disposal proceeds and the
carrying amounts are recognized in the Statement of
Profit and Loss.
(iv) Impairment of financial assets
For all financial assets with contractual cash flows other
than trade receivable, ECLs are measured at an amount
equal to the 12-month ECL, unless there has been a
significant increase in credit risk from initial recognition in
which case those are measured at lifetime ECL. The
amount of ECLs (or reversal) for the period is recognised
as expense/income in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
(v) De recognition of financial assets
A financial asset is derecognized only when:
⢠The Company has transferred the rights to receive
cash flows from the financial asset or
⢠retains the contractual rights to receive the cash flows
of the financial asset, but assumes a contractual
obligation to pay the cash flows to one or more recipients.
Where the entity has transferred an asset, the Company
evaluates whether it has transferred substantially all risks
and rewards of ownership of the financial asset. In such
cases, the financial asset is derecognized.
Where the entity has neither transferred a financial asset
nor retains substantially all risks and rewards of
ownership of the financial asset, the financial asset is
derecognized if the Company has not retained control of
the financial asset. Where the Company retains control of
the financial asset, the asset is continued to be recognised
to the extent of continuing involvement in the financial
asset.
i) Financial liabilities
Initial recognition and measurement
All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value
and, in the case of loans and borrowings and payables, net
of directly attributable transaction costs.
Subsequent measurement
Financial liabilities at amortized cost
After initial measurement, such financial liabilities are
subsequently measured at amortized cost using the
effective interest rate (EIR) method. Amortized cost is
calculated by taking into account any discount or
premium on acquisition and fees or costs that are an
integral part of the EIR. The EIR amortization is included in
finance costs in the profit or loss.
Trade and other payables
These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services
provided to the Company prior to the end of financial year
which are unpaid. The amounts are unsecured and are
usually paid within the operating cycle of the business.
Trade and other payables are presented as current
liabilities unless payment is not due within 12 months
after the reporting period. They are recognised initially at
their fair value and subsequently measured at amortized
cost using the effective interest method.
Borrowings
Borrowings are initially recognised at fair value, net of
transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently
measured at amortized cost. Any difference between the
proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption
amount is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss
over the period of the borrowings using the effective
interest method. Fees paid on the establishment of loan
facilities are recognised as transaction costs of the loan.
Borrowings are removed from the Balance Sheet when
the obligation specified in the contract is discharged,
cancelled or expired. 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 the Statement of
Profit and Loss as other gains/(losses).
Where the terms of a financial liability are renegotiated
and the entity issues equity instruments to a creditor to
extinguish all or part of the liability (debt for equity swap),
a gain or loss is recognised in the Statement of Profit and
Loss, which is measured as the difference between the
carrying amount of the financial liability and the fair value
of the equity instruments issued.
Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the
Company has an unconditional right to defer settlement
of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting
period. Where there is a breach of a material provision of
a long-term loan arrangement on or before the end of the
reporting period with the effect that the liability becomes
payable on demand on the reporting date, the entity does
not classify the liability as current, if the lender agreed,
after the reporting period and before the approval of the
financial statements for issue, not to demand payment as
a consequence of the breach.
Derecognition
A financial liability is derecognized when the obligation
under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires.
When an existing financial liability is replaced by another
from the same lender on substantially different terms, or
the terms of an existing liability are substantially
modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as
the derecognition of the original liability and the
recognition of a new liability. The difference in the
respective carrying amounts is recognized in the
statement of profit or loss.
j) Offsetting financial instruments
Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net
amount is reported in the Balance Sheet where there is a
legally enforceable right to offset the recognised amounts
and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or realize
the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. The
legally enforceable right must not be contingent on future
events and must be enforceable in the normal course of
business and in the event of default, insolvency or
bankruptcy of the Company or the counterparty.
k) Property plant and equipment
Freehold land is carried at historical cost. Other property,
plant and equipment are stated at historical cost of
acquisition net of recoverable taxes(wherever
applicable), less accumulated depreciation and
amortization, if any. Cost comprises the purchase price,
any cost attributable to bringing the assets to its working
condition for its intended use and initial estimate of costs
of dismantling and removing the item and restoring the
site if any.
Where cost of a part of the asset is significant to the total
cost of the assets and useful lives of the part is different
from the remaining asset, then useful live of the part is
determined separately and accounted as separate
component.
Subsequent costs are included in the asset''s carrying
amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate,
only when it is probable that future economic benefits
associated with the item will flow to the Company and the
cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying
amount of any component accounted for as a separate
asset is derecognized when replaced. All other repairs and
maintenance are charged to the Statement of Profit and
Loss during the reporting period in which they are
incurred.
An asset''s carrying amount is written down to its
recoverable amount if the asset''s carrying amount is
greater than its estimated recoverable amount.
An item of property, plant and equipment and any
significant part initially recognised is derecognized upon
disposal or when no future economic benefits are
expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss arising
on derecognition of the asset (calculated as the difference
between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying
amount of the asset) is included in the Statement of Profit
or Loss when the asset is derecognized.
The Company has elected to continue with the carrying
value for all of its property, plant and equipment as
recognised in the financial statements on transition to Ind
AS, measured as per the previous GAAP and use that as its
deemed cost as at the date of transition.
l) Intangible assets
An intangible asset is recognised when it is probable that
the future economic benefits attributable to the asset will
flow to the enterprise and where its cost can be reliably
measured. Intangible assets are stated at cost of
acquisition less accumulated amortization and
impairment losses, if any. Cost comprises the purchase
price and any cost attributable to bringing the assets to its
working condition for its intended use.
Cost of Internally generated asset comprises of all
expenditure that can be directly attributed, or allocated
on a reasonable and consistent basis, to create, produce
and make assets ready for its intended use.
Losses arising from retirement of , and gains or losses on
disposals of intangible assets are determined as the
difference between net disposal proceeds with carrying
amount of assets and recognised as income or expenses
in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
The Company has elected to continue with the carrying
value for all of its intangible assets as recognised in the
financial statements on transition to Ind AS, measured as
per the previous GAAP and use that as its deemed cost as
at the date of transition.
m) Capital work in progress/ Intangible under development
Capital Work in progress/ Intangible under development
represents expenditure incurred in respect of capital
projects/ intangible assets under development and are
carried at cost. Cost includes related acquisition
expenses, development cost, borrowing cost(wherever
applicable) and other direct expenditures.
The Company has elected to continue with the carrying
value for all of its Capital Work in progress/ Intangible
under development as recognised in the financial
statements on transition to Ind AS, measured as per the
previous GAAP and use that as its deemed cost as at the
date of transition.
n) Depreciation and amortization
Depreciation on property plant and equipment has been
provided on straight line method in accordance with the
provisions of Part C of Schedule II of the Companies Act
2013. The Management believes that the estimated
useful lives as per the provisions of Schedule II to the
Companies Act, 2013, except for moulds and dies, are
realistic and reflect fair approximation of the period over
which the assets are likely to be used.
Based on internal assessment and technical evaluation,
the management has assessed useful lives of moulds and
dies as five years, which is different from the useful lives as
prescribed under Part C of Schedule II of the Companies
Act, 2013.
Depreciation and amortization on addition to property
plant and equipment is provided on pro rata basis from
the date of assets are ready to use. Depreciation and
amortization on sale/deduction from property plant and
equipment is provided for upto the date of sale,
deduction, discardment as the case may be.
The residual values, useful lives and methods of
depreciation of property, plant and equipment and
intangible assets are reviewed at each financial year end
and adjusted prospectively, if appropriate.
All assets costing Rs. 5,000 or below are depreciated/
amortized by a one-time depreciation/amortization
charge in the year of purchase.
o) Borrowing costs
Borrowing cost includes interest calculated using the
effective interest rate method and amortization of
ancillary cost incurred in connection with the
arrangement of borrowings. General and specific
borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the
acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying
asset are capitalized during the period of time that is
required to complete and prepare the asset for its
intended use or sale. Qualifying assets are assets that
necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready
for their intended use or sale.
All Other borrowing costs are expensed in the period in
which they are incurred.

1 Basis of preparation
a) Compliance with Indian Accounting Standard
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS) notified under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 (the Act) read with Rule 3 of the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 and Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2016 and other relevant provisions of the Act.
All amounts disclosed in the financial statements and notes have been rounded off to the nearest lakhs as per the requirement of Division II IND AS Schedule III, unless otherwise stated.
These financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors on 18 May 2024.
b) Basis of measurement
The Financial Statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention on accrual basis, unless otherwise stated.
c) Critical estimates and judgments
The preparation of financial statements requires the use of accounting estimates which, by definition, will seldom equal the actual results. Management also needs to exercise judgment in applying the Company''s accounting policies.
This note provides an overview of the areas that involved a higher degree of judgment or complexity, and of items which are more likely to be materially adjusted due to estimates and assumptions turning out to be different than those originally assessed. Detailed information about each of these estimates and judgments is included in relevant notes together with information about the basis of calculation for each affected line item in the financial statements.
The areas involving critical estimates and judgments are:
I. Useful life of property, plant and equipment
The estimated useful life of property, plant and equipment is based on a number of factors including the effects of obsolescence, demand, competition and other economic factors (such as the stability of the industry and known technological advances) and the
level of maintenance expenditures required to obtain the expected future cash flows from the asset.
The Company reviews, at the end of each reporting date, the useful life of property, plant and equipment and changes, if any, are adjusted prospectively, if appropriate.
ii. Recoverable amount of property, plant and equipment
The recoverable amount of plant and equipment is based on estimates and assumptions regarding in particular the expected market outlook and future cash flows. Any changes in these assumptions may have a material impact on the measurement of the recoverable amount and could result in impairment.
iii. Estimation of defined benefit obligation
Employee benefit obligations are measured on the basis of actuarial assumptions which include mortality and withdrawal rates as well as assumptions concerning future developments in discount rates, the rate of salary increases and the inflation rate. The Company considers that the assumptions used to measure its obligations are appropriate and documented. However, any changes in these assumptions may have a material impact on the resulting calculations.
iv. Estimation of deferred tax assets for carry forward losses and current tax expenses
The Company review carrying amount of deferred tax assets and Liabilities at the end of each reporting period. The policy for the same has been explained under Note No 2(d).
v. Impairment of trade receivables
The Company review carrying amount of Trade receivable at the end of each reporting period and provide for Expected Credit Loss based on estimate.
vi. Fair value measurement
Management uses valuation techniques in measuring the fair value of financial instrument where active market codes are not available. Details of assumption used are given in the notes regarding financial assets and liabilities. In applying the valuation techniques management makes maximum use of market inputs and uses estimates and assumptions that are, as fast as possible, consistent with observable data that market participant would use in pricing the instrument where application data is not observable, management uses its best estimate about the assumption that market participant would make. These estimates may vary from actual prices that would be achieved in an arm''s length transaction at the reporting date.
Estimates and judgments are continually evaluated.
They 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.
e) Others
Financial Statements has been prepared on a going concern basis in accordance with the applicable accounting standards prescribed in the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 issued by the Ministry of Corporate Affairs.
f) Current versus non-current classification
The Company presents assets and liabilities in the Financial Statement based on current/ non-current classification.
An asset is treated as current when it is:
- Expected to be realized or intended to be sold or consumed in normal operating cycle
- Expected to be realized 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 normal operating cycle
- 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.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as noncurrent assets and liabilities.
The operating cycle is the time between the acquisition of assets for processing and their realization in cash and cash equivalents. The Company has identified twelve months as its operating cycle.
g) Foreign currency translation
i) Functional and presentation currency
Items included in the Financial Statements are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates i.e. ''the functional currency''. The Financial Statements are presented in Indian rupee (INR), which is Company''s functional and presentation currency.
ii) Transactions and balances
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using exchange rates at the date of the transaction. Foreign exchange gains and losses from settlement of such transactions and from translation of
monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency at the reporting date exchange rates are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss. Foreign exchange gains and losses are presented in the Statement of Profit and Loss on a net basis within other income/ expenses.
2 Summary of significant accounting policies
a) Revenue recognition
Revenue from contracts with customers is recognised when control of the goods or services are transferred to the customer at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services.
Sale of goods
For sale of goods, revenue is recognised when control of the goods has transferred at a point in time i.e. when the goods have been dispatched to the location of customer. Following dispatch, the customer has full discretion over the responsibility, manner of distribution, price to sell the goods and bears the risks of obsolescence and loss in relation to the goods. A receivable is recognised by the Company when the goods are dispatched to the customer as this represents the point in time at which the right to consideration becomes unconditional, as only the passage of time is required before payment is due. Payment is due within 10-15 days. The Company considers the effects of variable consideration, non-cash consideration, and consideration payable to the customer (if any).
Variable consideration
If the consideration in a contract includes a variable amount, estimates the amount of consideration to which it will be entitled in exchange for transferring the goods to the customer. The variable consideration is estimated at contract inception and constrained until it is highly probable that a significant revenue reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognised will not occur when the associated uncertainty with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved. The Company recognizes changes in the estimated amount of variable consideration in the period in which the change occurs. Some contracts for the sale of goods provide customers with volume rebates and pricing incentives, which give rise to variable consideration. Rebates are offset against amounts payable by the customer. To estimate the variable consideration for the expected future rebates, the Company applies the most likely amount method for contracts with a single-volume threshold. The selected method that best predicts the amount of variable consideration is primarily driven by the number of volume thresholds contained in the contract. The Company then applies the requirements on constraining estimates of variable consideration and recognises a refund liability for the expected future rebates.
Contract balances Trade receivables
A receivable represents the Company''s right to an amount of consideration that is unconditional (i.e., only the passage of time is required before payment of the consideration is due). Refer to accounting policies of financial assets in Note No 2(i) Financial assets - initial recognition and subsequent measurement.
Contract liabilities (which the Company refer to as advance from customer)
A contract liability is the obligation to transfer goods or services to a customer for which the Company has received consideration (or an amount of consideration is due) from the customer. If a customer pays consideration before the Company transfers goods or services to the customer, a contract liability is recognised when the payment is made or the payment is due (whichever is earlier). Contract liabilities are recognised as revenue when the Company performs under the contract.
The Company presents revenues net of indirect taxes in its Statement of Profit and Loss.
Cost to obtain a contract
The Company pays sales commission to its selling agents for each contract that they obtain for the Company. The Company has elected to apply the optional practical expedient for costs to obtain a contract which allows the Company to immediately expense sales commissions (included in ''commission on sales'' under other expenses) because the amortization period of the asset that the Company otherwise would have used is one year or less. Costs to fulfil a contract i.e. freight, insurance and other selling expenses are recognized as an expense in the period in which related revenue is recognised.
Financing components
The Company does not expect to have any contracts where the period between the transfer of the promised goods or services to the customer and payment by the customer exceeds one year. As a consequence, the Company does not adjust any of the transaction prices for the time value of money.
Rendering of services
Service income includes job work and its revenue is recognised when the performance obligation to render the services are completed as per contractually agreed terms. c) Other revenue streams Interest income
Interest income from debt instrument is recognised using the effective interest rate (EIR) method. EIR is the rate which exactly discounts the estimated future cash receipts over the expected life of the financial instrument to the gross carrying
amount of the financial asset. When calculating the EIR the Company estimates the expected cash flows by considering all the contractual terms of the financial instrument (for example, prepayments, extensions, call and similar options) but does not consider the expected credit losses.
Dividend income
Dividends are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss only when the Company''s right to receive the payment is established.
Export incentives
Export incentives principally comprise of duty drawback. The benefit under these incentive schemes are available based on the guideline formulated for respective schemes by the government authorities. Duty drawback is recognized as revenue on accrual basis to the extent it is probable that realization is certain.
Government grants
Grants from the government are recognized at their fair value where there is a reasonable assurance that the grant will be received and the Company will comply with all attached conditions.
Government grants which are revenue in nature and are towards compensation for the qualifying costs, incurred by the Company, are recognised as income in the Statement of Profit and Loss in the period in which such costs are incurred. Government grants relating to the purchase of property, plant and equipment are included in non-current liabilities as deferred income and are credited to the Statement of Profit and Loss on a straight-line basis over the expected lives of the related assets and presented within other income.
d) Income taxes
Income tax expense for the year comprises of current tax and deferred tax. Income tax is recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss except to the extent that it relates to an item which is recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case the tax is recognized in ''Other comprehensive income'' or directly in equity, respectively. The Income tax expense or credit for the period is the tax payable on the current period''s taxable income based on the applicable income tax rate for each jurisdiction adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to temporary differences and to unused tax losses.
Current tax
Current tax is based on tax rates applicable for respective years on the basis of tax law enacted and substantively enacted at the end of the reporting period. The Company establishes provisions where appropriate on the basis of amounts expected to be paid to the tax authorities. Current is payable on taxable profit, which differs from profit and loss in financial statements. Current tax is charged to Statement of Profit and Loss. Provision for current tax is made after
taking in to consideration benefits admissible under Income Tax Act, 1961.
Deferred tax
Deferred income taxes are calculated without discounting the temporary differences between carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and there tax base using the tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date. However deferred tax is not provided on the initial recognition of assets and liabilities unless the related transaction is business combination or affects tax or accounting profit. Tax losses available to the carried forward and other income tax credit available to the entity are assessed for recognition as deferred tax assets.
Deferred tax liabilities are always provided for in full. Deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probable that they will be able to utilize against future taxable income.
Deferred tax asset are recognised to the extent that is probable that the underlying tax loss or deductible temporary differences will be utilized against future taxable income. This is assessed based on Company''s forecast of future operating income at each reporting date.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset where the entity has a right and intention to set off current tax assets and liabilities from the same taxation authority.
Minimum Alternative Tax (MAT)
Minimum Alternate Tax credit entitlement paid in accordance with tax laws, which gives rise to future economic benefit in form of adjustment to future tax liability, is considered as an asset to the extent management estimate its recovery in future years.
e) 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 and the arrangement conveys a right to use the asset or assets, even if that right is not explicitly specified in an arrangement.
As a lessee
The Company''s lease asset classes primarily consist of leases for buildings. The Company assesses whether a contract contains a lease, at inception of a contract. A contract is, or contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. To assess whether a contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset, the Company assesses whether: (i) the contract involves the use of an identified asset (ii) the Company has substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the asset through the period of the lease and (iii) the Company has the right to direct the
use of the asset. At the date of commencement of the lease, the Company recognizes a right-of-use (ROU) asset and a corresponding lease liability for all lease arrangements in which it is a lessee, except for leases with a term of 12 months or less (short-term leases) and low value leases. For these short-term and low-value leases, the Company recognizes the lease payments as an operating expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Certain lease arrangements includes the options to extend or terminate the lease before the end of the lease term. ROU assets and lease liabilities includes these options when it is reasonably certain that they will be exercised. The ROU assets are initially recognized at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or prior to the commencement date of the lease plus any initial direct costs less any lease incentives. They are subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. ROU assets are depreciated from the commencement date on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease term and useful life of the underlying asset. ROU assets are evaluated for recoverability whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. For the purpose of impairment testing, the recoverable amount (i.e. the higher of the fair value less cost to sell and the value-inuse) is determined on an individual asset basis unless the asset does not generate cash flows that are largely independent of those from other assets. In such cases, the recoverable amount is determined for the Cash Generating Unit (CGU) to which the asset belongs. The lease liability is initially measured at amortized cost at the present value of the future lease payments. The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if not readily determinable, using the incremental borrowing rates . Lease liabilities are remeasured with a corresponding adjustment to the related ROU asset if the Company changes its assessment of whether it will exercise an extension or a termination option. Lease liability and ROU assets have been separately presented in the Balance Sheet and lease payments have been classified as financing cash flows.
As a lessor
Lease income from operating leases where the Company is a lessor is recognised in the statement of profit and loss on a straight- line basis over the lease term.
f) Impairment of non-financial assets
Assessment for impairment is done at each Balance Sheet date as to whether there is any indication that a nonfinancial asset may be impaired. Indefinite-life intangibles are subject to a review for impairment annually or more frequently if events or circumstances indicate that it is necessary.
For the purpose of assessing impairment, the smallest
identifiable Company of assets that generates cash inflows from continuing use that are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or Company of assets is considered as a cash generating unit. Goodwill acquired in a business combination is, from the acquisition date, allocated to each of the Company''s cash-generating units that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination, irrespective of whether other assets or liabilities of the acquire are assigned to those units.
If any indication of impairment exists, an estimate of the recoverable amount of the individual asset/cash generating unit is made. Asset/cash generating unit whose carrying value exceeds their recoverable amount are written down to the recoverable amount by recognizing the impairment loss as an expense in the Statement of Profit and Loss. The impairment loss is allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill (if any) allocated to the cash generating unit and then to the other assets of the unit pro rata based on the carrying amount of each asset in the unit. Recoverable amount is higher of an asset''s or cash generating unit''s fair value less cost of disposal and its value in use. Value in use is the present value of estimated future cash flows expected to arise from the continuing use of an asset or cash generating unit and from its disposal at the end of its useful life. Assessment is also done at each Balance Sheet date as to whether there is any indication that an impairment loss recognized for an asset in prior accounting periods may no longer exist or may have decreased. An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the assets carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation and amortization, if no impairment loss had been recognized. An impairment loss recognized for goodwill is not reversed in subsequent periods.
g) Cash and cash equivalents
For the purpose of presentation in the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, deposits held at call with financial institutions, other shortterm, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to know amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities in the balance sheet.
h) Inventories
(i) Raw materials, packaging materials and stores and spare parts are valued at the lower of weighted average cost and net realizable value. Cost includes purchase price, taxes (excluding levies or taxes subsequently recoverable by the enterprise from the concerned
revenue authorities), freight inwards and other expenditure incurred in bringing such inventories to their present location and condition. However, these items are considered to be realizable at cost if finished products in which they will be used are expected to be sold at or above cost.
(ii) Work in progress, manufactured finished goods and traded goods are valued at the lower of weighted average cost and net realizable value. Cost of work in progress and manufactured finished goods is determined on the weighted average basis and comprises direct material, cost of conversion and other costs incurred in bringing these inventories to their present location and condition.
(iii) Provision for obsolescence on inventories is made on the basis of management''s estimate based on demand and market of the inventories.
(iv) Net realizable 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.
(v) The comparison of cost and net realizable value is made on an item by item basis.
i) Investments and Other Financial Assets (I) Classification
The Company classifies its financial assets in the following measurement categories:
- those to be measured subsequently at fair value (either through other comprehensive income, or through profit or loss), and
- those measured at amortized cost.
The classification depends on the entity''s business model for managing the financial assets and the contractual terms of the cash flows.
For assets measured at fair value, gains and losses will either be recorded in Statement of Profit and Loss or other comprehensive income. For investments in debt instruments, this will depend on the business model in which the investment is held. For investments in equity instruments, this will depend on whether the Company has made an irrevocable election at the time of initial recognition to account for the equity investment at fair value through other comprehensive income.
The Company reclassifies debt investments when and only when its business model for managing those assets changes.
(ii) Initial measurement
At initial recognition, the Company measures a financial asset at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial asset not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset. Transaction costs of financial assets carried at fair value
through profit or loss are expensed in profit or loss.
(iii) Subsequent measurement Debt instruments
Subsequent measurement of debt instruments depends on the Company''s business model for managing the asset and the cash flow characteristics of the asset. There are three measurement categories into which the Company classifies its debt instruments:
⢠Amortized cost: Assets that are held for collection of contractual cash flows where those cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest are measured at amortized cost. A gain or loss on a debt investment that is subsequently measured at amortized cost and is not part of a hedging relationship is recognised in Statement of Profit and Loss when the asset is derecognized or impaired. Interest income from these financial assets is included in finance income using the effective interest rate method.
⢠Fair Value through Other Comprehensive Income (FVOCI): Assets that are held for collection of contractual cash flows and for selling the financial assets, where the assets'' cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest, are measured at FVOCI. Movements in the carrying amount are taken through OCI, except for the recognition of impairment gains or losses, interest revenue and foreign exchange gains and losses which are recognized in profit and loss. When the financial asset is derecognized, the cumulative gain or loss previously recognized in OCI is reclassified from equity to profit or loss and recognized in other gains/ (losses). Interest income from these financial assets is included in other income using the effective interest rate method. At present no financial assets fulfil this condition.
⢠Fair Value Through Profit or Loss(FVTPL): Assets that do not meet the criteria for amortized cost or FVOCI are measured at FVTPL. A gain or loss on a debt investment that is subsequently measured at fair value through profit or loss and is not part of a hedging relationship is recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss and presented net in the Statement of Profit and Loss within other gains/(losses) in the period in which it arises. Interest income from these financial assets is included in other income.
Equity instruments
All equity investments in scope of Ind AS 109, are measured at fair value. At Equity instruments which are held for trading are classified as at FVTPL. For all other equity instruments, the Company may make an irrevocable election to present in other comprehensive income subsequent changes in the fair value. The Company makes such election on an instrument by instrument basis. The classification is made on initial recognition and is irrevocable.
Where the Company''s management has elected to present
fair value gains and losses on equity investments in other comprehensive income, there is no subsequent reclassification of fair value gains and losses to the Statement of Profit and Loss, even on sale of investment. Dividends from such investments are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss as other income when the Company''s right to receive payments is established.
Changes in the fair value of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are recognized in other gain/ (losses) in the Statement of Profit and Loss. Impairment losses (and reversal of impairment losses) on equity investments measured at FVOCI are not reported separately from other changes in fair value.
Investments in subsidiaries
Investments are carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses, if any Where an indication of impairment exists, the carrying amount of the investment is assessed and written down immediately to its recoverable amount. On disposal of investments, the difference between net disposal proceeds and the carrying amounts are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
(iv) Impairment of financial assets
For all financial assets with contractual cash flows other than trade receivable, ECLs are measured at an amount equal to the 12-month ECL, unless there has been a significant increase in credit risk from initial recognition in which case those are measured at lifetime ECL. The amount of ECLs (or reversal) for the period is recognised as expense/income in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
(v) De recognition of financial assets
A financial asset is derecognized only when:
⢠The Company has transferred the rights to receive cash flows from the financial asset or
⢠retains the contractual rights to receive the cash flows of the financial asset, but assumes a contractual obligation to pay the cash flows to one or more recipients.
Where the entity has transferred an asset, the Company evaluates whether it has transferred substantially all risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset. In such cases, the financial asset is derecognized.
Where the entity has neither transferred a financial asset nor retains substantially all risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset, the financial asset is derecognized if the Company has not retained control of the financial asset. Where the Company retains control of the financial asset, the asset is continued to be recognised to the extent of continuing involvement in the financial asset.
j) Financial liabilities
Initial recognition and measurement
All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value
and, in the case of loans and borrowings and payables, net of directly attributable transaction costs.
Subsequent measurement Financial liabilities at amortized cost
After initial measurement, such financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate (EIR) method. Amortized cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of the EIR. The EIR amortization is included in finance costs in the profit or loss. Trade and other payables
These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Company prior to the end of financial year which are unpaid. The amounts are unsecured and are usually paid within the operating cycle of the business. Trade and other payables are presented as current liabilities unless payment is not due within 12 months after the reporting period. They are recognised initially at their fair value and subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method.
Borrowings
Borrowings are initially recognised at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently measured at amortized cost. Any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption amount is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method. Fees paid on the establishment of loan facilities are recognised as transaction costs of the loan.
Borrowings are removed from the Balance Sheet when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged, cancelled or expired. 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 noncash assets transferred or liabilities assumed, is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss as other gains/(losses). Where the terms of a financial liability are renegotiated and the entity issues equity instruments to a creditor to extinguish all or part of the liability (debt for equity swap), a gain or loss is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss, which is measured as the difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability and the fair value of the equity instruments issued.
Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the Company has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period. Where there is a breach of a material provision of a longterm loan arrangement on or before the end of the reporting period with the effect that the liability becomes payable on demand on the reporting date, the entity does not classify the liability as current, if the lender agreed, after the reporting period and before the approval of the financial
statements for issue, not to demand payment as a consequence of the breach.
Derecognition
A financial liability is derecognized when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires. When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as the derecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability. The difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognized in the statement of profit or loss.
k) Offsetting financial instruments
Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the Balance Sheet where there is a legally enforceable right to offset the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. The legally enforceable right must not be contingent on future events and must be enforceable in the normal course of business and in the event of default, insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company or the counterparty.
l) Property plant and equipment
Freehold land is carried at historical cost. Other property, plant and equipment are stated at historical cost of acquisition net of recoverable taxes(wherever applicable), less accumulated depreciation and amortization, if any. Cost comprises the purchase price, any cost attributable to bringing the assets to its working condition for its intended use and initial estimate of costs of dismantling and removing the item and restoring the site if any.
Where cost of a part of the asset is significant to the total cost of the assets and useful lives of the part is different from the remaining asset, then useful live of the part is determined separately and accounted as separate component. Subsequent costs are included in the asset''s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of any component accounted for as a separate asset is derecognized when replaced. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss during the reporting period in which they are incurred.
An asset''s carrying amount is written down to its recoverable amount if the asset''s carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount.
An item of property, plant and equipment and any significant part initially recognised is derecognized upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of the
asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in the Statement of Profit or Loss when the asset is derecognized.
The Company has elected to continue with the carrying value for all of its property, plant and equipment as recognised in the financial statements on transition to Ind AS, measured as per the previous GAAP and use that as its deemed cost as at the date of transition.Changes in wordings
m) Intangible assets
An intangible asset is recognised when it is probable that the future economic benefits attributable to the asset will flow to the enterprise and where its cost can be reliably measured. Intangible assets are stated at cost of acquisition less accumulated amortization and impairment losses, if any. Cost comprises the purchase price and any cost attributable to bringing the assets to its working condition for its intended use.
Cost of Internally generated asset comprises of all expenditure that can be directly attributed, or allocated on a reasonable and consistent basis, to create, produce and make assets ready for its intended use.
Losses arising from retirement of , and gains or losses on disposals of intangible assets are determined as the difference between net disposal proceeds with carrying amount of assets and recognised as income or expenses in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
The Company has elected to continue with the carrying value for all of its intangible assets as recognised in the financial statements on transition to Ind AS, measured as per the previous GAAP and use that as its deemed cost as at the date of transition.Changes in wordings
n) Capital work in progress/ Intangible under development Capital Work in progress/ Intangible under development represents expenditure incurred in respect of capital projects/ intangible assets under development and are carried at cost. Cost includes related acquisition expenses, development cost, borrowing cost(wherever applicable) and other direct expenditures.
The Company has elected to continue with the carrying value for all of its Capital Work in progress/ Intangible under development as recognised in the financial statements on transition to Ind AS, measured as per the previous GAAP and use that as its deemed cost as at the date of transition. Changes in wordings
o) Depreciation and amortization
Depreciation on property plant and equipment has been provided on straight line method in accordance with the provisions of Part C of Schedule II of the Companies Act 2013. The Management believes that the estimated useful lives as per the provisions of Schedule II to the Companies
Act, 2013, except for moulds and dies, are realistic and reflect fair approximation of the period over which the assets are likely to be used.
Based on internal assessment and technical evaluation, the management has assessed useful lives of moulds and dies as five years, which is different from the useful lives as prescribed under Part C of Schedule II of the Companies Act, 2013.
Depreciation and amortization on addition to property plant and equipment is provided on pro rata basis from the date of assets are ready to use. Depreciation and amortization on sale/deduction from property plant and equipment is provided for upto the date of sale, deduction, discardment as the case may be.
The residual values, useful lives and methods of depreciation of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets are reviewed at each financial year end and adjusted prospectively, if appropriate.
All assets costing Rs. 5,000 or below are depreciated/ amortized by a one-time depreciation/amortization charge in the year of purchase.

p) Borrowing costs
Borrowing cost includes interest calculated using the effective interest rate method and amortization of ancillary cost incurred in connection with the arrangement of borrowings. General and specific borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset are capitalized during the period of time that is required to complete and prepare the asset for its intended use or sale. Qualifying assets are assets
that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use or sale.
All Other borrowing costs are expensed in the period in which they are incurred.
q) Provisions, Contingent liabilities and Contingent assets
A Provision is recognised when the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefit will be required to settle the obligation and the amount can be reliably estimated. Provisions are not recognised for future operating losses.
Provisions are measured at the present value of the management''s best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period. If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre-tax rate that reflects current ,market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability. The increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised as interest expense. Contingent liabilities are possible obligations that arise from past events and whose existence will only be confirmed by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more future events not wholly within the control of the Company. Where it is not probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required, or the amount cannot be estimated reliably, the obligation is disclosed as a contingent liability, unless the probability of outflow of economic benefits is remote. Contingent liabilities are disclosed on the basis of judgment of the management/ independent experts. These are reviewed at each Balance Sheet date and are adjusted to reflect the current management estimate.
r) Employee Benefits :
(i) Short-term obligations
Short term benefits comprises of employee cost such as salaries and bonuses including non-monetary benefits that are expected to be settled wholly within 12 months after the end of the period in which the employees render the related service are recognised in respect of employees'' services up to the end of the reporting period and are measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled. The liabilities are presented as current employee benefit obligations in the Balance Sheet.
(ii) Post employment obligations Defined benefit plans Gratuity obligations
The Company provides for the retirement benefit in the form of Gratuity. The liability or asset recognised in the Balance Sheet in respect of defined benefit gratuity plans is the present value of the defined benefit obligation at the end of the reporting period less the fair value of plan assets. The
defined benefit obligation is calculated annually by actuaries using the projected unit credit method. The present value of the defined benefit obligation denominated in INR is determined by discounting the estimated future cash outflows by reference to market yields at the end of the reporting period on government bonds that have terms approximating to the terms of the related obligation. The net interest cost is calculated by applying the discount rate to the net balance of the defined benefit obligation and the fair value of plan assets. This cost is included in employee benefit expense in the Statement of Profit and Loss. Remeasurement of gains and losses arising from experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions are recognised in the period in which they occur, directly in other comprehensive income. They are included in retained earnings in the statement of changes in equity and in the Balance Sheet. Changes in the present value of the defined benefit obligation resulting from plan amendments or curtailments are recognised immediately in profit or loss as past service cost.
Defined contribution plans Provident Fund
All the employees of the Company are entitled to receive benefits under Provident Fund, which is defined contribution plan. Both the employee and the employer make monthly contributions to the plan at a predetermined rate as per the provisions of The Employees Provident Fund and miscellaneous Provisions Act, 1952. These contributions are made to the fund administered and managed by the Government of India.
Employee state insurance
Employees whose wages/salary is within the prescribed limit in accordance with the Employee State Insurance Act, 1948, are covered under this scheme. These contributions are made to the fund administered and managed by the Government of India. The Company''s contributions to these schemes are expensed off in the Statement of Profit and Loss. The Company has no further obligations under the plan beyond its monthly contributions.
iii) Other long-term employee benefit obligations Leave encashment
The liabilities for accumulated absents are not expected to be settled wholly within 12 months after the end of the period in which the employees render the related service. They are therefore measured as the present value of expected future payments to be made in respect of services provided by employees up to the end of the reporting period using the projected unit credit method. The benefits are discounted using the market yields at the end of the reporting period that have terms approximating to the terms of the related obligation. Remeasurements as a result of experience adjustments and changes in actuarial
assumptions are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
The obligations are presented as current liabilities in the Balance Sheet if the entity does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least twelve months after the reporting period, regardless of when the actual settlement is expected to occur.
Share-Based Payments
The Company recognises the goods or services received or acquired in a share-based payment transaction when it obtains the goods or as the services are received with a corresponding increase in equity if the goods or services were received in an equity-settled share-based payment transaction, or a liability if the goods or services were acquired in a cash-settled share-based payment transaction. When the goods or services received or acquired do not qualify for recognition as assets, they are recognised as expenses.
For equity-settled share-based payment transactions, the Company measures the goods or services received, and the corresponding increase in equity, directly, at the fair value of the goods or services received, unless that fair value cannot be estimated reliably. If the Company cannot estimate reliably the fair value of the goods or services received, the Company measures their value, and the corresponding increase in equity, indirectly, by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments granted.
If the equity instruments granted vest immediately, on grant date the Company recognises the services received in full, with a corresponding increase in equity.
s) Contributed equity
Equity shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds.
t) Earnings per share
Basic earnings per equity share is calculated by dividing the net profit or loss for the year attributable to equity shareholders by the weighted average number of equity Shares outstanding during the financial year. The weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period, are adjusted for events of bonus issued to existing shareholders.
For the purpose calculating diluted earnings per share, the net profit or loss attributable to equity shareholders and the weighted average number of shares outstanding are adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potential equity shares, if any.
u) Segment reporting
In line with the provisions of Ind AS 108 Operating Segments, and on the basis of the review of operations by the Chief
Operating Decision Maker (CODM), the operations of the Company fall under Manufacturing of Oral Care products, other than manufacturing business and retail operations.
v) Measurement of fair values
A number of the accounting policies and disclosures require measurement of fair values, for both financial and nonfinancial assets and liabilities. Fair values are categorized into different levels in a fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used in the valuation techniques as follows:
Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices).
Level 3: inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).
The Company has an established control framework with respect to the measurement of fair values. This includes a finance team that has overall responsibility for overseeing all significant fair value measurements, including Level 3 fair values.
The finance team regularly reviews significant unobservable inputs and valuation adjustments. If third party information, is used to measure fair values, then the finance team assesses the evidence obtained from the third parties to support the conclusion that these valuations meet the requirements of Ind AS, including the level in the fair value hierarchy in which the valuations should be classified.
When measuring the fair value of an asset or a liability, the Company uses observable market data as far as possible. If the inputs used to measure the fair value of an asset or a liability fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy, then the fair value measurement is categorized in its entirety in the same level of the fair value hierarchy as the lowest level input that is significant to the entire measurement.
The Company recognizes transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy at the end of the reporting period during which the change has occurred. Further information about the assumptions made in measuring fair values used in preparing these financial statements is included in the respective notes.
w) Assets held for Sale
Non-current assets or disposal Companys comprising of assets and liabilities are classified as held for sale if their carrying amount is intended to be recovered principally through a sale (rather than through continuing use) when the asset (or disposal Company) is available for immediate sale in its present condition subject only to terms that are usual and customary for sale of such asset (or disposal Company) and the sale is highly probable and is expected to qualify for recognition as a completed sale within one year
from the date of classification.
Non-current assets or disposal Companys comprising of assets and liabilities classified as held for sale are measured at lower of their carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell. Non-current assets held for sale are not depreciated or amortised.
x) Exceptional items
An item of income or expense which its size, type or incidence requires disclosure in order to improve an understanding of the performance of the Company is treated as an exceptional item and the same is disclosed in the notes to accounts.

Mar 31, 2023
2 Summary of significant accounting policies
a) Revenue recognition
Revenue from contracts with customers is recognised when control of the goods or services are transferred to the customer at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services
Sale of goods
For sale of goods, revenue is recognised when control of the goods has transferred at a point in time i.e. when the goods have been dispatched to the location of customer. Following dispatch, the customer has full discretion over the responsibility, manner of distribution, price to sell the goods and bears the risks of obsolescence and loss in relation to the goods. A receivable is recognised by the Company when the goods are dispatched to the customer as this represents the point in time at which the right to consideration becomes unconditional, as only the passage of time is required before payment is due. Payment is due within 10-15 days. The Company considers the effects of variable consideration, non-cash consideration, and consideration payable to the customer (if any).
Variable consideration
If the consideration in a contract includes a variable amount, estimates the amount of consideration to which it will be entitled in exchange for transferring the goods to the customer. The variable consideration is estimated at contract inception and constrained until it is highly probable that a significant revenue reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognised will not occur when the associated uncertainty with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved. The Company recognizes changes in the estimated amount of variable consideration in the period in which the change occurs. Some contracts for the sale of goods provide customers with volume rebates and pricing incentives, which give rise to variable consideration.
Rebates are offset against amounts payable by the customer. To estimate the variable consideration for the expected future rebates, the Company applies the most likely amount method for contracts with a single-volume threshold. The selected method that best predicts the amount of variable consideration is primarily driven by the number of volume thresholds contained in the contract. The Company then applies the requirements on constraining estimates of variable consideration and recognises a refund liability for the expected future rebates.
Contract balances Trade receivables
A receivable represents the Company''s right to an amount of consideration that is unconditional (i.e., only the passage of time is required before payment of the consideration is due). Refer to accounting policies of financial assets in Note No 2{i) Financial assets - initial recognition and subsequent measurement.
Contract liabilities (which the Company refer to as advance from customer)
A contract liability is the obligation to transfer goods or services to a customer for which the Company has received consideration (or an amount of consideration is due) from the customer. If a customer pays consideration before the Company transfers goods or services to the customer, a contract liability is recognised when the payment is made or the payment is due (whichever is earlier). Contract liabilities are recognised as revenue when the Company performs under the contract.
The Company presents revenues net of indirect taxes in its Statement of Profit and Loss.
Cost to obtain a contract
The Company pays sales commission to its selling agents for each contract that they obtain for the Company. The Company has elected to apply the optional practical expedient for costs to obtain a contract which allows the Company to immediately expense sales commissions (included in ''commission on sales'' under other expenses) because the amortization period of the asset that the Company otherwise would have used is one year or less.
Costs to fulfil a contract i.e. freight, insurance and other selling expenses are recognized as an expense in the period in which related revenue is recognised.
Financing components
The Company does not expect to have any contracts where the period between the transfer of the promised goods or services to the customer and payment by the customer exceeds one year. As a consequence, the Company does not adjust any of the transaction prices for the time value of money.
Rendering of services
Service income includes job work and its revenue is recognised when the performance obligation to render the services are completed as per contractually agreed terms.
b) Other revenue streams
Interest income
Interest income from debt instrument is recognised using the effective interest rate (EIR) method. EIR is the rate which exactly discounts the estimated future cash receipts over the expected life of the financial instrument to the gross carrying amount of the financial asset. When calculating the EIR the Company estimates the expected cash flows by considering all the contractual terms of the financial instrument (for example, prepayments, extensions, call and similar options) but does not consider the expected credit losses.
Dividend income
Dividends are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss only when the Companyâs right to receive the payment is established.
Export incentives
Export incentives principally comprise of duty drawback. The benefit under these incentive schemes are available based on the guideline formulated for respective schemes by the government authorities. Duty drawback is recognized as revenue on accrual basis to the extent it is probable that realization is certain.
Government grants
Grants from the government are recognized at their fair value where there is a reasonable assurance that the grant will be received and the Company will comply with all attached conditions.
Government grants relating to the purchase of property, plant and equipment are included in non-current liabilities as deferred income and are credited to the Statement of Profit and Loss on a straight-line basis over the expected lives of the related assets and presented within other income.
c) Income taxes
Income tax expense for the year comprises of current tax and deferred tax. Income tax is recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss except to the extent that it relates to an item which is recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case the tax is recognized in ''Other comprehensive income'' or directly in equity, respectively.
Current tax
Current tax is based on tax rates applicable for respective years on the basis of tax law enacted and substantively enacted by the reporting date. The Company establishes provisions where appropriate on the basis of amounts expected to be paid to the tax authorities. Current tax is charged to Statement of Profit and Loss.
Deferred tax
Deferred income taxes are calculated without discounting on temporary differences between carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and there tax base using the tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date. Deferred income tax is also not accounted for if it arises from initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction other than a business combination that at the time of transaction affects neither accounting profit nor taxable profit (tax loss). Tax losses available to the carried forward and other income tax credit available to the entity are assessed for recognition as deferred tax assets.
Deferred tax liabilities are always provided for in full.
Deferred tax asset are recognised to the extent that is probable that the underlying tax loss or deductible temporary differences will be utilized against future taxable income. This is assessed based on Company''s forecast of future operating income at each reporting date.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to off set current tax assets against current tax liabilities, and when the deferred income tax assets and liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either the taxable entity or different taxable entities where there is an intention to settle the balances on a net basis.
Minimum Alternative Tax (MAT)
Minimum Alternate Tax credit entitlement paid in accordance with tax laws, which gives rise to future economic benefit in form of adjustment to future tax liability, is considered as an asset to the extent management estimate its recovery in future years.
d) 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 and the arrangement conveys a right to use the asset or assets, even if that right is not explicitly specified in an arrangement.
As a lessee
The Companyâs lease asset classes primarily consist of leases for buildings. The Company assesses whether a contract contains a lease, at inception of a contract. A contract is, or contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. To assess whether a contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset, the Company assesses whether: (i) the contract involves the use of an identified asset (ii) the Company has substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the asset through the period of the lease and (iii) the Company has the right to direct the use of the asset. At the date of commencement of the lease, the Company recognizes a right-of-use (ROU) asset and a corresponding lease liability for all lease arrangements in which it is a lessee, except for leases with a term of 12 months or less (short-term leases) and low value leases. For these short-term and low-value leases, the Company recognizes the lease payments as an operating expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Certain lease arrangements includes the options to extend or terminate the lease before the end of the lease term. ROU assets and lease liabilities includes these options when it is reasonably certain that they will be exercised The ROU assets are initially recognized at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or prior to the commencement date of the lease plus any initial direct costs less any lease incentives. They are subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. ROU assets are depreciated from the commencement date on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease term and useful life of the underlying asset. ROU assets are evaluated for recoverability whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. For the purpose of impairment testing, the recoverable amount (i.e. the higher of the fair value less cost to sell and the value-in-use) is determined on an individual asset basis unless the asset does not generate cash flows that are largely independent of those from other assets. In such cases, the recoverable amount is determined for the Cash Generating Unit (CGU) to which the asset belongs. The lease liability is initially measured at amortized cost at the present value of the future lease payments. The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if not readily determinable, using the incremental borrowing rates . Lease liabilities are remeasured with a corresponding adjustment to the related ROU asset if the Company changes its assessment of whether it will exercise an extension or a termination option. Lease liability and ROU assets have been separately presented in the Balance Sheet and lease payments have been classified as financing cash flows.
As a lessor
Lease income from operating leases where the Company is a lessor is recognised in the statement of profit and loss on a straight- line basis over the lease term.
e) Impairment of non-financial assets
Assessment for impairment is done at each Balance Sheet date as to whether there is any indication that a non-financial asset may be impaired. Indefinite-life intangibles are subject to a review for impairment annually or more frequently if events or circumstances indicate that it is necessary.
For the purpose of assessing impairment, the smallest identifiable group of assets that generates cash inflows from continuing use that are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or group of assets is considered as a cash generating unit. Goodwill acquired in a business combination is, from the acquisition date, allocated to each of the Company''s cash-generating units that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination, irrespective of whether other assets or liabilities of the acquire are assigned to those units.
If any indication of impairment exists, an estimate of the recoverable amount of the individual asset/cash generating unit is made Asset/cash generating unit whose carrying value exceeds their recoverable amount are written down to the recoverable amount by recognizing the impairment loss as an expense in the Statement of Profit and Loss. The impairment loss is allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill (if any) allocated to the cash generating unit and then to the other assets of the unit pro rata based on the carrying amount of each asset in the unit. Recoverable amount is higher of an asset''s or cash generating unit''s fair value less cost of disposal and its value in use. Value in use is the present value of estimated future cash flows expected to arise from the continuing use of an asset or cash generating unit and from its disposal at the end of its useful life. Assessment is also done at each Balance Sheet date as to whether there is any indication that an impairment loss recognized for an asset in prior accounting periods may no longer exist or may have decreased. An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a change in
the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the assets carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation and amortization, if no impairment loss had been recognized. An impairment loss recognized for goodwill is not reversed in subsequent periods.
f) Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents are short-term (three months or less from the date of acquisition), highly liquid investments that are readily convertible into cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.
g) Inventories
(i) Raw materials, packaging materials and stores and spare parts are valued at the lower of weighted average cost and net realizable value. Cost includes purchase price, taxes (excluding levies or taxes subsequently recoverable by the enterprise from the concerned revenue authorities), freight inwards and other expenditure incurred in bringing such inventories to their present location and condition. However, these items are considered to be realizable at cost if finished products in which they will be used are expected to be sold at or above cost.
(ii) Work in progress, manufactured finished goods and traded goods are valued at the lower of weighted average cost and net realizable value. Cost of work in progress and manufactured finished goods is determined on the weighted average basis and comprises direct material, cost of conversion and other costs incurred in bringing these inventories to their present location and condition.
(iii) Net realizable 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.
(iv) The comparison of cost and net realizable value is made on an item by item basis.
h) Investments in subsidiaries
Investment in equity of subsidiaries is accounted and carried at cost less impairment in accordance with Ind AS 27.
i) Financial assets other than investment in subsidiaries
(i) Classification
The Company classifies its financial assets in the following measurement categories:
- those to be measured subsequently at fair value (either through other comprehensive income, or through profit or loss), and
- those measured at amortized cost.
The classification depends on the entity''s business model for managing the financial assets and the contractual terms of the cash flows.
For assets measured at fair value, gains and losses will either be recorded in Statement of Profit and Loss or other comprehensive income. For investments in debt instruments, this will depend on the business model in which the investment is held. For investments in equity instruments, this will depend on whether the Company has made an irrevocable election at the time of initial recognition to account for the equity investment at fair value through other comprehensive income.
The Company reclassifies debt investments when and only when its business model for managing those assets changes.
(ii) Initial measurement
At initial recognition, the Company measures a financial asset at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial asset not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset. Transaction costs of financial assets carried at fair value through profit or loss are expensed in Statement of Profit and Loss.
(iii) Subsequent measurement Debt instruments
Subsequent measurement of debt instruments depends on the Company''s business model for managing the asset and the cash flow characteristics of the asset. There are three measurement categories into which the Company classifies its debt instruments:
⢠Amortized cost Assets that are held for collection of contractual cash flows where those cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest are measured at amortized cost. A gain or loss on a debt investment that is subsequently measured at amortized cost and is not part of a hedging relationship is recognised in Statement of Profit and Loss when the asset is derecognized or impaired. Interest income from these financial assets is included in finance income using the effective interest rate method
⢠Fair Value through Other Comprehensive Income (FVOCI): Assets that are held for collection of contractual cash flows and for selling the financial assets, where the assets'' cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest, are measured at FVOCI. Movements in the carrying amount are taken through OCI, except for the recognition of impairment gains or losses, interest revenue and foreign exchange gains and losses which are recognized in profit and loss. When the financial asset is derecognized, the cumulative gain or loss previously recognized in OCI is reclassified from equity to profit or loss and recognized in other gains/ (losses). Interest income from these financial assets is included in other income using the effective interest rate method. At present no financial assets fulfill this condition.
⢠Fair Value Through Profit or Loss(FVTPL). Assets that do not meet the criteria for amortized cost or FVOCI are measured at FVTPL. A gain or loss on a debt investment that is subsequently measured at fair value through profit or loss and is not part of a hedging relationship is recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss and presented net in the Statement of Profit and Loss within other gains/Uosses) in the period in which it arises. Interest income from these financial assets is included in other income.
Equity instruments
All equity investments in scope of Ind AS 109, are measured at fair value. At Equity instruments which are held for trading are classified as at FVTPL. For all other equity instruments, the Company may make an irrevocable election to present in other comprehensive income subsequent changes in the fair value. The Company makes such election on an instrument by instrument basis. The classification is made on initial recognition and is irrevocable.
Where the Company''s management has elected to present fair value gains and losses on equity investments in other comprehensive income, there is no subsequent reclassification of fair value gains and losses to the Statement of Profit and Loss, even on sale of investment. Dividends from such investments are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss as other income when the Company''s right to receive payments is established.
Changes in the fair value of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are recognized in other gain/ (losses) in the Statement of Profit and Loss. Impairment losses (and reversal of impairment losses) on equity investments measured at FVOCI are not reported separately from other changes in fair value.
(iv) lmpairment of financial assets
Expected credit losses are recognized for all financial assets subsequent to initial recognition other than financials assets in FVTPL category.
For financial assets other than trade receivables, as per Ind AS 109, the Company recognises 12 month expected credit losses for all originated or acquired financial assets if at the reporting date the credit risk of the financial asset has not increased significantly since its initial recognition. The expected credit losses are measured as lifetime expected credit losses if the credit risk on financial asset increases significantly since its initial recognition. The Company''s trade receivables do not contain significant financing component and loss allowance on trade receivables is measured at an amount equal to life time expected losses i.e. expected cash shortfall.
The impairment losses and reversals are recognised in Statement of Profit and Loss.
(v) De recognition of financial assets
A financial asset is derecognized only when:
⢠The Company has transferred the rights to receive cash flows from the financial asset or
⢠retains the contractual rights to receive the cash flows of the financial asset, but assumes a contractual obligation to pay the cash flows to one or more recipients.
Where the entity has transferred an asset, the Company evaluates whether it has transferred substantially all risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset. In such cases, the financial asset is derecognized.
Where the entity has neither transferred a financial asset nor retains substantially all risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset, the financial asset is derecognized if the Company has not retained control of the financial asset. Where the Company retains control of the financial asset, the asset is continued to be recognised to the extent of continuing involvement in the financial asset.
j) Financial liabilities
Initial recognition and measurement
All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value and, in the case of loans and borrowings and payables, net of directly attributable transaction costs.
Subsequent measurement
Financial liabilities at amortized cost
After initial measurement, such financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate (EIR) method. Amortized cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of the EIR. The EIR amortization is included in finance costs in the profit or loss.
Trade and other payables
These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Company prior to the end of financial year which are unpaid. The amounts are unsecured and are usually paid within the operating cycle of the business. Trade and other payables are presented as current liabilities unless payment is not due within 12 months after the reporting period. They are recognised initially at their fair value and subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method.
Borrowings
Borrowings are initially recognised at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently measured at amortized cost. Any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption amount is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method. Fees paid on the establishment of loan facilities are recognised as transaction costs of the loan.
Borrowings are removed from the Balance Sheet when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged, cancelled or expired. 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 the Statement of Profit and Loss as other gains/Oosses).
Where the terms of a financial liability are renegotiated and the entity issues equity instruments to a creditor to extinguish all or part of the liability (debt for equity swap), a gain or loss is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss, which is measured as the difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability and the fair value of the equity instruments issued.
Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the Company has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period. Where there is a breach of a material provision of a long-term loan arrangement on or before the end of the reporting period with the effect that the liability becomes payable on demand on the reporting date, the entity does not classify the liability as current, if the lender agreed, after the reporting period and before the approval of the financial statements for issue, not to demand payment as a consequence of the breach.
Derecognition
A financial liability is derecognized when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires. When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as the derecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability. The difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognized in the statement of profit or loss.
Offsetting financial instruments
Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the Balance Sheet where there is a legally enforceable right to offset the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. The legally enforceable right must not be contingent on future events and must be enforceable in the normal course of business and in the event of default, insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company or the counterparty.
k) Property plant and equipment
Freehold land is carried at historical cost. Other property, plant and equipment are stated at historical cost of acquisition net of recoverable taxeslwherever applicable), less accumulated depreciation and amortization, if any. Cost comprises the purchase price, any cost attributable to bringing the assets to its working condition for its intended use and initial estimate of costs of dismantling and removing the item and restoring the site if any.
Where cost of a part of the asset is significant to the total cost of the assets and useful lives of the part is different from the remaining asset, then useful live of the part is determined separately and accounted as separate component.
Subsequent costs are included in the asset''s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of any component accounted for as a separate asset is derecognized when replaced. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss during the reporting period in which they are incurred.
An asset''s carrying amount is written down to its recoverable amount if the asset''s carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount.
An item of property, plant and equipment and any significant part initially recognised is derecognized upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in the Statement of Profit or Loss when the asset is derecognized.
The Company has elected to continue with the carrying value for all of its property, plant and equipment as recognised in the financial statements on transition to Ind AS, measured as per the previous GAAP and use that as its deemed cost as at the date of transition.
l) Intangible assets
An intangible asset is recognised when it is probable that the future economic benefits attributable to the asset will flow to the enterprise and where its cost can be reliably measured. Intangible assets are stated at cost of acquisition less accumulated amortization and impairment losses, if any. Cost comprises the purchase price and any cost attributable to bringing the assets to its working condition for its intended use.
Losses arising from retirement of, and gains or losses on disposals of intangible assets are determined as the difference between net disposal proceeds with carrying amount of assets and recognised as income or expenses in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
The Company has elected to continue with the carrying value for all of its intangible assets as recognised in the financial statements on transition to Ind AS, measured as per the previous GAAP and use that as its deemed cost as at the date of transition.
m) Capital work in progress/ Intangible under development
Capital Work in progress/ Intangible under development represents expenditure incurred in respect of capital projects/ intangible assets under development and are carried at cost. Cost includes related acquisition expenses, development cost, borrowing costlwherever applicable) and other direct expenditures.
The Company has elected to continue with the carrying value for all of its Capital Work in progress/ Intangible under development as recognised in the financial statements on transition to Ind AS, measured as per the previous GAAP and use that as its deemed cost as at the date of transition.
n) Depreciation and amortization
Depreciation on Property plant and equipment has been provided on straight line method in accordance with the provisions of Part C of Schedule II of the Companies Act 2013 The Management believes that the estimated useful lives as per the provisions of Schedule li to the Companies Act, 2013, except for moulds and dies, are realistic and reflect fair approximation of the period over which the assets are likely to be used.
Based on internal assessment and technical evaluation, the management has assessed useful lives of moulds and dies as five years, which is different from the useful lives as prescribed under Part C of Schedule li of the Companies Act, 2013.
Depreciation and amortization on addition to Property plant and equipment is provided on pro rata basis from the date of assets are ready to use. Depreciation and amortization on sale/deduction from Property plant and equipment is provided for upto the date of sale, deduction, discardment as the case may be.
The residual values, useful lives and methods of depreciation of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets are reviewed at each financial year end and adjusted prospectively, if appropriate
o) Borrowing costs
Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of an asset that necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use or sale are capitalised as part of the cost of the asset. All other borrowing costs are expensed in the period in which they occur. Borrowing costs consist of interest and other costs that an entity incurs in connection with the borrowing of funds. Borrowing cost also includes exchange differences to the extent regarded as an adjustment to the borrowing costs.

1. Summary of significant accounting policies
a) Revenue Recognition
Revenue is recognized to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Company and the revenue can be reliably measured. Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, after deduction of any trade discounts, volume rebates and any taxes or duties collected on behalf of the government which are levied on sales such as goods and service tax, sales tax, value added tax etc.
Sale of goods
Revenue from sale of goods is recognised when all the significant risks and rewards of ownership in the goods are transferred to the buyer as per the terms of the contract, there is no continuing managerial involvement with the goods and the amount of revenue can be measured reliably. The Company retains no effective control of the goods transferred to a degree usually associated with ownership and no significant uncertainty exists regarding the amount of the consideration that will be derived from the sale of goods. Revenue is measured at fair value of the consideration received or receivable, after deduction of any trade discounts, volume rebates and any taxes or duties collected on behalf of the government which are levied on sales such as goods and services tax, sales tax, value added tax etc.
Interest income
Interest income from debt instrument is recognised using the effective interest rate (EIR) method. EIR is the rate which exactly discounts the estimated future cash receipts over the expected life of the financial instrument to the gross carrying amount of the financial asset. When calculating the EIR the Company estimates the expected cash flows by considering all the contractual terms of the financial instrument (for example, prepayments, extensions, call and similar options) but does not consider the expected credit losses.
Dividend income
Dividends are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss only when the Company''s right to receive the payment is established.
Export incentives
Export incentives principally comprise of duty drawback. The benefit under these incentive schemes are available based on the guideline formulated for respective schemes by the government authorities. Duty drawback is recognized as revenue on accrual basis to the extent it is probable that realization is certain.
Sale of Scrap
Revenue from sale of scrap is recognised when significant risks and rewards of ownership in the goods are transferred to the buyer with the Company losing effective control or the right to managerial involvement thereon.
Service income
Service income includes job work and its revenue is recognized on completion of services, based on service contracts.
b) Government Grants
Grants from the government are recognized at their fair value where there is a reasonable assurance that the grant will be received and the Company will comply with all attached conditions.
Government grants relating to the purchase of property, plant and equipment are included in non-current liabilities as deferred income and are credited to the Statement of Profit and Loss on a straight-line basis over the expected lives of the related assets and presented within other income.
c) Income Taxes
Income tax expense for the year comprises of current tax and deferred tax. Income tax is recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss except to the extent that it relates to an item which is recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case the tax is recognized in ''Other comprehensive income'' or directly in equity, respectively.
Current Tax
Current tax is based on tax rates applicable for respective years on the basis of tax law enacted and substantively enacted by the reporting date. The Company establishes provisions where appropriate on the basis of amounts expected to be paid to the tax authorities. Current tax is charged to Statement of Profit and Loss.
Deferred Tax
Deferred income taxes are calculated without discounting on temporary differences between carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and there tax base using the tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date. Deferred income tax is also not accounted for if it arises from initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction other than a business combination that at the time of transaction affects neither accounting profit nor taxable profit (tax loss). Tax losses available to the carried forward and other income tax credit available to the entity are assessed for recognition as deferred tax assets.
Deferred tax liabilities are always provided for in full.
Deferred tax asset are recognised to the extent that is probable that the underlying tax loss or deductible temporary differences will be utilized against future taxable income. This is assessed based on Company''s forecast of future operating income at each reporting date.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to off set current tax assets against current tax liabilities, and when the deferred income tax assets and liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either the taxable entity or different taxable entities where there is an intention to settle the balances on a net basis.
Minimum Alternative Tax(MAT)
Minimum alternate tax credit entitlement paid in accordance with tax laws, which gives rise to future economic benefit in form of adjustment to future tax liability, is considered as an asset to the extent management estimate its recovery in future years.
d) 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 fulfillment of the arrangement is dependent on the use of a specific asset or assets and the arrangement conveys a right to use the asset or assets, even if that right is not explicitly specified in an arrangement.
For arrangements entered into prior to April 1, 2016, the Company has determined whether the arrangement contain lease on the basis of facts and circumstances existing on the date of transition.
Operating Lease As a lessee
Leases in which a significant portion of the risks and rewards of ownership are not transferred to the Company as lessee are classified as operating leases. Payments made under operating leases (net of any incentives received from the lessor) are charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease unless the payments are structured to increase in line with expected general inflation to compensate for the lessor''s expected inflationary cost increases.
e) Impairment of Non-Financial Assets
Assessment for impairment is done at each Balance Sheet date as to whether there is any indication that a non-financial asset may be impaired. Indefinite-life intangibles are subject to a review for impairment annually or more frequently if events or circumstances indicate that it is necessary.
For the purpose of assessing impairment, the smallest identifiable group of assets that generates cash inflows from continuing use that are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or group of assets is considered as a cash generating unit. Goodwill acquired in a business combination is, from the acquisition date, allocated to each of the Company''s cash-generating units that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination, irrespective of whether other assets or liabilities of the acquire are assigned to those units.
If any indication of impairment exists, an estimate of the recoverable amount of the individual asset/cash generating unit is made. Asset/cash generating unit whose carrying value exceeds their recoverable amount are written down to the recoverable amount by recognizing the impairment loss as an expense in the Statement of Profit and Loss. The impairment loss is allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill (if any) allocated to the cash generating unit and then to the other assets of the unit pro rata based on the carrying amount of each asset in the unit. Recoverable amount is higher of an asset''s or cash generating unit''s fair value less cost of disposal and its value in use. Value in use is the present value of estimated future cash flows expected to arise from the continuing use of an asset or cash generating unit and from its disposal at the end of its useful life. Assessment is also done at each Balance Sheet date as to whether there is any indication that an impairment loss recognized for an asset in prior accounting periods may no longer exist or may have decreased. An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the assets carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation and amortization, if no impairment loss had been recognized. An impairment loss recognized for goodwill is not reversed in subsequent periods.
f) Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents are short-term (three months or less from the date of acquisition), highly liquid investments that are readily convertible into cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.
g) Inventories
(i) Raw materials, packaging materials and stores and spare parts are valued at the lower of weighted average cost and net realizable value. Cost includes purchase price, taxes (excluding levies or taxes subsequently recoverable by the enterprise from the concerned revenue authorities), freight inwards and other expenditure incurred in bringing such inventories to their present location and condition. However, these items are considered to be realizable at cost if finished products in which they will be used are expected to be sold at or above cost.
(ii) Work in progress, manufactured finished goods and traded goods are valued at the lower of weighted average cost and net realizable value. Cost of work in progress and manufactured finished goods is determined on the weighted average basis and comprises direct material, cost of conversion and other costs incurred in bringing these inventories to their present location and condition.
(iii) Net realizable 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.
(iv)The comparison of cost and net realizable value is made on an item by item basis.
h) Investments in Subsidiaries
Investment in equity of subsidiaries is accounted and carried at cost less impairment in accordance with Ind AS 27.Upon first-time adoption of Ind AS, the Company has elected to measure its investments in subsidiaries at the Previous GAAP carrying amount as its deemed cost on the date of transition to Ind AS i.e., 01 April 2016.
i) Financial Assets other than Investment in Subsidiaries
(i) Classification
The Company classifies its financial assets in the following measurement categories:
- those to be measured subsequently at fair value (either through other comprehensive income, or through profit or loss), and
- those measured at amortized cost.
The classification depends on the entity''s business model for managing the financial assets and the contractual terms of the cash flows.
For assets measured at fair value, gains and losses will either be recorded in Statement of Profit and Loss or other comprehensive income. For investments in debt instruments, this will depend on the business model in which the investment is held. For investments in equity instruments, this will depend on whether the Company has made an irrevocable election at the time of initial recognition to account for the equity investment at fair value through other comprehensive income.
The Company reclassifies debt investments when and only when its business model for managing those assets changes.
(ii) Initial Measurement
At initial recognition, the Company measures a financial asset at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial asset not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset. Transaction costs of financial assets carried at fair value through profit or loss are expensed in Statement of Profit and Loss.
(iii) Subsequent Measurement Debt instruments
Subsequent measurement of debt instruments depends on the Company''s business model for managing the asset and the cash flow characteristics of the asset. There are three measurement categories into which the Company classifies its debt instruments:
- Amortized cost: Assets that are held for collection of contractual cash flows where those cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest are measured at amortized cost. A gain or loss on a debt investment that is subsequently measured at amortized cost and is not part of a hedging relationship is recognised in Statement of Profit and Loss when the asset is derecognized or impaired. Interest income from these financial assets is included in finance income using the effective interest rate method.
- Fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI): Assets that are held for collection of contractual cash flows and for selling the financial assets, where the assets'' cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest, are measured at FVOCI. Movements in the carrying amount are taken through OCI, except for the recognition of impairment gains or losses, interest revenue and foreign exchange gains and losses which are recognized in profit and loss. When the financial asset is derecognized, the cumulative gain or loss previously recognized in OCI is reclassified from equity to profit or loss and recognized in other gains/ (losses). Interest income from these financial assets is included in other income using the effective interest rate method. At present no financial assets fulfill this condition.
- Fair value through profit or loss(FVTPL): Assets that do not meet the criteria for amortized cost or FVOCI are measured at FVTPL. A gain or loss on a debt investment that is subsequently measured at fair value through profit or loss and is not part of a hedging relationship is recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss and presented net in the Statement of Profit and Loss within other gains/(losses) in the period in which it arises. Interest income from these financial assets is included in other income.
Equity instruments
All equity investments in scope of Ind AS 109, are measured at fair value. At Equity instruments which are held for trading are classified as at FVTPL. For all other equity instruments, the Company may make an irrevocable election to present in other comprehensive income subsequent changes in the fair value. The Company makes such election on an instrument by instrument basis. The classification is made on initial recognition and is irrevocable.
Where the Company''s management has elected to present fair value gains and losses on equity investments in other comprehensive income, there is no subsequent reclassification of fair value gains and losses to the Statement of Profit and Loss, even on sale of investment. Dividends from such investments are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss as other income when the Company''s right to receive payments is established.
Changes in the fair value of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are recognized in other gain/ (losses) in the Statement of Profit and Loss. Impairment losses (and reversal of impairment losses) on equity investments measured at FVOCI are not reported separately from other changes in fair value.
(iv) Impairment of Financial Assets
Expected credit losses are recognized for all financial assets subsequent to initial recognition other than financials assets in FVTPL category.
For financial assets other than trade receivables, as per Ind AS 109, the Company recognises 12 month expected credit losses for all originated or acquired financial assets if at the reporting date the credit risk of the financial asset has not increased significantly since its initial recognition. The expected credit losses are measured as lifetime expected credit losses if the credit risk on financial asset increases significantly since its initial recognition. The Companys trade receivables do not contain significant financing component and loss allowance on trade receivables is measured at an amount equal to life time expected losses i.e. expected cash shortfall. The impairment losses and reversals are recognised in Statement of Profit and Loss.
(v) De recognition of Financial Assets
A financial asset is derecognized only when:
- The Company has transferred the rights to receive cash flows from the financial asset or
- retains the contractual rights to receive the cash flows of the financial asset, but assumes a contractual obligation to pay the cash flows to one or more recipients.
Where the entity has transferred an asset, the Company evaluates whether it has transferred substantially all risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset. In such cases, the financial asset is derecognized.
Where the entity has neither transferred a financial asset nor retains substantially all risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset, the financial asset is derecognized if the Company has not retained control of the financial asset. Where the Company retains control of the financial asset, the asset is continued to be recognised to the extent of continuing involvement in the financial asset.
j) Financial Liabilities
Initial recognition and measurement
All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value and, in the case of loans and borrowings and payables, net of directly attributable transaction costs.
Subsequent measurement Financial liabilities at amortized cost
After initial measurement, such financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate (EIR) method. Amortized cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of the EIR. The EIR amortization is included in finance costs in the profit or loss.
Derecognition
A financial liability is derecognized when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires. When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as the derecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability. The difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognized in the statement of profit or loss.
Offsetting financial instruments
Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the Balance Sheet where there is a legally enforceable right to offset the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. The legally enforceable right must not be contingent on future events and must be enforceable in the normal course of business and in the event of default, insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company or the counterparty.
k) Property plant and equipment
Freehold land is carried at historical cost. Other property, plant and equipment are stated at historical cost of acquisition net of recoverable taxes(wherever applicable), less accumulated depreciation and amortization, if any. Cost comprises the purchase price, any cost attributable to bringing the assets to its working condition for its intended use and initial estimate of costs of dismantling and removing the item and restoring the site if any.
Where cost of a part of the asset is significant to the total cost of the assets and useful lives of the part is different from the remaining asset, then useful live of the part is determined separately and accounted as separate component.
Subsequent costs are included in the asset''s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of any component accounted for as a separate asset is derecognized when replaced. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss during the reporting period in which they are incurred.
An asset''s carrying amount is written down to its recoverable amount if the asset''s carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount.
An item of property, plant and equipment and any significant part initially recognised is derecognized upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in the Statement of Profit or Loss when the asset is derecognized.
Transition to Ind AS
Property, Plant and Equipment up to March 31, 2016 were carried in the Balance Sheet in accordance with IGAAP (Previous GAAP). The Company has elected to avail the exemption granted by Ind AS 101, âFirst time adoption of IND AS" to regard those amounts as deemed cost at the date of the transition to Ind AS (i.e. as on April 1, 2016).
l) Intangible Assets
An intangible asset is recognised when it is probable that the future economic benefits attributable to the asset will flow to the enterprise and where its cost can be reliably measured. Intangible assets are stated at cost of acquisition less accumulated amortization and impairment losses, if any. Cost comprises the purchase price and any cost attributable to bringing the assets to its working condition for its intended use.
Losses arising from retirement of , and gains or losses on disposals of intangible assets are determined as the difference between net disposal proceeds with carrying amount of assets and recognised as income or expenses in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Transition to Ind AS
Upto March 31, 2016, Intangible assets were carried in the Balance Sheet in accordance with IGAAP (Previous GAAP). The Company has elected to avail the exemption granted by IND AS 101, âFirst time adoption of Ind AS" to regard those amounts as deemed cost at the date of the transition to Ind AS (i.e. as on April 1, 2016).
m) Capital Work in progress/ Intangible under development
Capital Work in progress/ Intangible under development represents expenditure incurred in respect of capital projects/ intangible assets under development and are carried at cost. Cost includes related acquisition expenses, development cost, borrowing cost(wherever applicable) and other direct expenditures.
Capital work in Progress up to March 31, 2016 were carried in the Balance Sheet in accordance with IGAAP (Previous GAAP). The Company has elected to avail the exemption granted by Ind AS 101, âFirst time adoption of Ind AS" to regard those amounts as deemed cost at the date of the transition to Ind AS (i.e. as on April 1, 2016).
n) Depreciation and Amortization
âDepreciation on fixed assets has been provided on straight line method in accordance with the provisions of Part C of Schedule II of the Companies Act 2013. The Management believes that the estimated useful lives as per the provisions of Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013, except for moulds and dies, are realistic and reflect fair approximation of the period over which the assets are likely to be used.
Based on internal assessment and technical evaluation, the management has assessed useful lives of moulds and dies as five years, which is different from the useful lives as prescribed under Part C of Schedule II of the Companies Act, 2013.
Intangible assets comprising of computer software are amortized over a period of five years.
Depreciation and amortization on addition to fixed assets is provided on pro rata basis from the date of assets are ready to use. Depreciation and amortization on sale/deduction from fixed assets is provided for upto the date of sale, deduction, discardment as the case may be.
The residual values, useful lives and methods of depreciation of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets are reviewed at each financial year end and adjusted prospectively, if appropriate.
o) Borrowing Costs
Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of an asset that necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use or sale are capitalised as part of the cost of the asset. All other borrowing costs are expensed in the period in which they occur. Borrowing costs consist of interest and other costs that an entity incurs in connection with the borrowing of funds. Borrowing cost also includes exchange differences to the extent regarded as an adjustment to the borrowing costs.
p) Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets
A Provision is recognised when the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events, it is probable that an outflow of resources emboyding economic benefit will be required to settle the obligation and the amount can be reliably estimated. Provisions are not recognised for future operating losses.
Provisions are measured at the present value of the management''s best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period. If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre-tax rate that reflects current ,market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability. The increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised as interest expense.
Contingent liabilities are possible obligations that arise from past events and whose existence will only be confirmed by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more future events not wholly within the control of the Company. Where it is not probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required, or the amount cannot be estimated reliably, the obligation is disclosed as a contingent liability, unless the probability of outflow of economic benefits is remote. Contingent liabilities are disclosed on the basis of judgment of the management/ independent experts. These are reviewed at each Balance Sheet date and are adjusted to reflect the current management estimate.
Contingent assets are possible assets that arise from past events and whose existence will be confirmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of the Company. Contingent assets are disclosed in the financial statements when inflow of economic benefits is probable on the basis of judgment of management. These are assessed continually to ensure that developments are appropriately reflected in the financial statements.
q) Employee Benefits :
(i) Short-term obligations
Short term benefits comprises of employee cost such as salaries and bonuses including non-monetary benefits that are expected to be settled wholly within 12 months after the end of the period in which the employees render the related service are recognised in respect of employees'' services up to the end of the reporting period and are measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled.
The liabilities are presented as current employee benefit obligations in the Balance Sheet.
(ii) Post employment obligations Defined Benefit Plans Gratuity obligations
The Company provides for the retirement benefit in the form of Gratuity. The liability or asset recognised in the Balance Sheet in respect of defined benefit gratuity plans is the present value of the defined benefit obligation at the end of the reporting period less the fair value of plan assets. The defined benefit obligation is calculated annually by actuaries using the projected unit credit method. The present value of the defined benefit obligation denominated in INR is determined by discounting the estimated future cash outflows by reference to market yields at the end of the reporting period on government bonds that have terms approximating to the terms of the related obligation. The net interest cost is calculated by applying the discount rate to the net balance of the defined benefit obligation and the fair value of plan assets. This cost is included in employee benefit expense in the Statement of Profit and Loss. Remeasurement of gains and losses arising from experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions are recognised in the period in which they occur, directly in other comprehensive income. They are included in retained earnings in the Statement of Changes in Equity and in the Balance Sheet.
Defined Contribution Plans Provident Fund
All the employees of the Company are entitled to receive benefits under Provident Fund, which is defined contribution plan. Both the employee and the employer make monthly contributions to the plan at a predetermined rate as per the provisions of The Employees Provident Fund and miscellaneous Provisions Act, 1952. These contributions are made to the fund administered and managed by the Government of India.
Employee state Insurance
Employees whose wages/salary is within the prescribed limit in accordance with the Employee State Insurance Act, 1948, are covered under this scheme. These contributions are made to the fund administered and managed by the Government of India. The Company''s contributions to these schemes are expensed off in the Statement of Profit and Loss. The Company has no further obligations under the plan beyond its monthly contributions.
Other Long-term Employee Benefit Obligations Leave encashment
The liabilities for accumulated absents are not expected to be settled wholly within 12 months after the end of the period in which the employees render the related service. They are therefore measured as the present value of expected future payments to be made in respect of services provided by employees up to the end of the reporting period using the projected unit credit method. The benefits are discounted using the market yields at the end of the reporting period that have terms approximating to the terms of the related obligation. Remeasurements as a result of experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
The obligations are presented as current liabilities in the Balance Sheet if the entity does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least twelve months after the reporting period, regardless of when the actual settlement is expected to occur.
r) Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per equity share is calculated by dividing the net profit or loss for the year attributable to equity shareholders by the weighted average number of equity Shares outstanding during the financial year. The weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period, are adjusted for events of bonus issued to existing shareholders.
For the purpose calculating diluted earnings per share, the net profit or loss attributable to equity shareholders and the weighted average number of shares outstanding are adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potential equity shares.
s) Segment Reporting
In line with the provisions of Ind AS 108 Operating Segments, and on the basis of the review of operations by the Chief Operating Decision Maker(CODM), the operations of the Company fall under Manufacturing of Oral Care products, which is considered to be the only reportable segment.
t) Measurement of fair values
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. Normally at initial recognition, the transaction price is the best evidence of fair value.
However, when the Company determines that transaction price does not represent the fair value, it uses inter-alia valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available to measure fair value, maximising the use of relevant observable inputs and minimising the use of unobservable inputs.
All financial assets and financial liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the financial statements are categorised within the fair value hierarchy. This categorisation is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole:
- Level 1 â Quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
- Level 2 â Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is directly or indirectly observable.
- Level 3 â Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is unobservable.
For financial assets and financial liabilities that are recognised at fair value on a recurring basis, the Company determines whether transfers have occurred between levels in the hierarchy by re-assessing categorisation at the end of each reporting period.
u) Assets held for Sale
Non-current assets or disposal groups comprising of assets and liabilities are classified as held for sale if their carrying amount is intended to be recovered principally through a sale (rather than through continuing use) when the asset (or disposal group) is available for immediate sale in its present condition subject only to terms that are usual and customary for sale of such asset (or disposal group) and the sale is highly probable and is expected to qualify for recognition as a completed sale within one year from the date of classification.
Non-current assets or disposal groups comprising of assets and liabilities classified as held for sale are measured at lower of their carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell.
v) Exceptional Items
An item of income or expense which its size, type or incidence requires disclosure in order to improve an understanding of the performance of the Company is treated as an exceptional item and the same is disclosed in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
w) Applicable standards issued but not yet effective
IND AS 115: Revenue from Contracts with Customers
In March 2018, the Ministry of Corporate Affairs issued the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) (Amendments) Rules, 2017, notifying Ind AS 115, ''Revenue from Contracts with Customers''. The Standard is applicable to the Company with effect from 1st April, 2018.
Revenue from Contracts with Customers Ind AS 115 establishes a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers. Ind AS 115 will supersede the current revenue recognition standard Ind AS 18 Revenue, Ind AS 11 Construction Contracts when it becomes effective. The core principle of Ind AS 115 is that an entity should recognise revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Specifically, the standard introduces a 5-step approach to revenue recognition:
- Step 1: Identify the contract(s) with a customer
- Step 2: Identify the performance obligation in contract
- Step 3: Determine the transaction price
- Step 4: Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract
- Step 5: Recognise revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation
Under Ind AS 115, an entity recognises revenue when (or as) a performance obligation is satisfied, i.e. when ''control'' of the goods or services underlying the particular performance obligation is transferred to the customer. The Company has completed its evaluation of the possible impact of Ind AS 115 and will adopt the standard from 1st April, 2018.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
a. Basis of preparation of Financial Statements
The financial statements have been prepared to comply in all material respects with the Accounting Standards specified under section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013, read with Rule 7 of the Companies (Accounts) Rules, 2014, the relevant provision of the Companies Act, 2013 and guidelines issued by Securities and Exchange Board of India, to the extent applicable. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention on an accrual basis. The accounting policies have been consistently applied by the Company and consistent with those followed in the previous year.
b. Use of estimates
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenue and expenses. Although such estimates and assumptions are made on reasonable and prudent basis taking into account all available information, actual results could differ from these estimates and assumptions and such differences are recognized in the period in which the results are crystallized. Any revision to accounting estimates is recognized in the current and future periods.
c. Operating Cycle
All assets and liabilities have been classified as current or non-current as per the Company''s normal operating cycle and other criteria set out in the Schedule III to the Companies Act, 2013. Based on the above criteria, the Company has ascertained its operating cycle as 12 months for the purpose of current/non-current classification of assets and liabilities.
d. Tangible assets
Tangible assets are stated at the cost of acquisition or construction, less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, if any. The cost of an item of tangible asset comprises its purchase price, including import duties and other non-refundable taxes or levies and any attributable costs of bringing the asset to its working condition for its intended use. Any trade discount and rebates are deducted in arriving at the purchase price. Advances paid towards acquisition of tangible assets outstanding at each Balance Sheet date, are shown under long-term loans and advances and cost of assets not ready for intended use before the year end are shown as capital work-in-progress.
Subsequent expenditures related to an item of tangible asset are added to its book value only if they increases the future benefits from the existing asset beyond its previously assessed standard of performance.
A tangible asset is eliminated from the financial statements on disposal or when no further economic benefit is expected from its use or disposal.

Mar 31, 2014
A. Basis of preparation of Financial Statements
The financial statements have been prepared to comply in
all material respects with the Accounting Standards notified

1956, and guidelines issued by Securities and Exchange
Board of India, to the extent applicable. The financial
statements have been prepared under the historical cost
convention on an accrual basis. The accounting policies have
been consistently applied by the Company and consistent
with those followed in the previous year.
b. Use of estimates
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect
the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure
of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements
and the reported amount of revenue and expenses. Although
such estimates and assumptions are made on reasonable
and prudent basis taking into account all available information,
actual results could differ from these estimates and
assumptions and such differences are recognized in the
period in which the results are crystallized. Any revision to
accounting estimates is recognized in the current and future
periods.
c. Operating Cycle
All assets and liabilities have been classified as current or
non-current as per the Company''s normal operating cycle

Companies Act, 1956. Based on the above criteria, the
Company has ascertained its operating cycle as 12 months
for the purpose of current/non-current classification of assets
and liabilities.
d. Tangible assets

construction, less accumulated depreciation and impairment
losses, if any. The cost of an item of tangible asset comprises
its purchase price, including import duties and other non-
refundable taxes or levies and any attributable costs of
bringing the asset to its working condition for its intended
use. Any trade discount and rebates are deducted in arriving
at the purchase price. Advances paid towards acquisition of
tangible assets outstanding at each Balance Sheet date, are
shown under long-term loans and advances and cost of
assets not ready for intended use before the year end are
shown as capital work-in-progress.
Subsequent expenditures related to an item of tangible asset
are added to its book value only if they increases the future
benefits from the existing asset beyond its previously
assessed standard of performance.
A tangible asset is eliminated from the financial statements
on disposal or when no further economic benefit is expected
from its use or disposal.

from disposal of a tangible asset are measured as the
difference between the net realisable value and the carrying
amount of the asset and are recognised in the Statement of
Profit and Loss.
e. Intangible assets
An intangible asset is recognised when it is probable that the
future economic benefits attributable to the asset will flow to
the enterprise and where its cost can be reliably measured.

amortization and impairment losses, if any. The cost of an
item of intangible asset comprises its purchase price and
any attributable costs of bringing the asset to its working
condition for its intended use. Cost of assets not ready for
intended use before the year end, are shown as intangible
assets under development.
An intangible asset is derecognised on disposal or when no
future economic benefits are expected from its use or
disposal. Losses arising from retirement and gains or losses
arising from disposal of an intangible asset are measured as
the difference between the net realisable value and the
carrying amount of the asset and are recognised in the
Statement of Profit and Loss.

Depreciation and amortization on addition to fixed assets is
provided on pro-rata basis from the date the assets are ready
for use. Depreciation and amortization on sale/discard from
fixed assets is provided for upto the date of sale, deduction or
discard of fixed assets as the case may be. Depreciation and
amortization is provided by leaving a residual value of '' 1.
All assets costing '' 5,000 or below are depreciated/amortized
by a one-time depreciation/amortization charge in the year
of purchase.
g. Impairment of assets
The carrying amounts of assets are reviewed at each balance
sheet date if there is any indication of impairment based on
internal/external factors. An impairment loss is recognised
wherever the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its
recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the greater
of the assets'' net selling price and value in use. In assessing
value in use the estimated future cash flows are discounted
to their present value at the weighted average cost of capital.
After impairment, depreciation/amortisation is provided on
the revised carrying amount of the asset over its remaining
useful life.
h. Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash balances on hand,
cash balance with bank, and highly liquid investments with
original maturities, at the date of purchase/investment, of

to vested employees on retirement, death while in service or
on termination of employment in an amount equivalent to 15
days basic salary for each completed year of service. Vesting
occurs upon completion of five years of service. The present
value of such obligation is determined by the Projected Unit
Credit method and adjusted for past service cost. The
resultant actuarial gain or loss on change in present value of
the defined benefit obligation is recognised as an income or
expense in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Other long-term benefits: Leave benefits

differences between taxable income and accounting income
for the year and reversal of timing differences of earlier years.
Deferred tax is measured based on the tax rates and the tax
laws enacted or substantially enacted as at the Balance Sheet
date. Deferred tax assets are recognized for timing differences
only to the extent there is reasonable certainty that sufficient
future taxable income will be available against which these
assets can be realized in future where as, in cases of
existence of carry forward of losses or unabsorbed
depreciation, deferred tax assets are recognized only if, there
is virtual certainty of realization supported by convincing
evidence. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each Balance
Sheet date.
Minimum alternate tax (MAT) paid in a year is charged to the
Statement of Profit and Loss as current tax. The Company
recognizes MAT credit available as an asset only to the extent
that there is convincing evidence that the Company will pay
normal income tax during the specified period, i.e., the period
for which MAT credit is allowed to be carried forward. In the
year in which the Company recognizes MAT credit as an
asset in accordance with the Guidance Note on Accounting
for Credit Available in respect of Minimum Alternative Tax
under the Income-tax Act, 1961, the said asset is created by
way of credit to the Statement of Profit and Loss and shown

income which is recognized in the Statement of Profit and
Loss on a systematic and rational basis over the remaining
useful life of the assets. Grants related to non-depreciable
assets are credited to capital reserve.
r. Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets

obligation as a result of a past event that probably requires
an outflow of resources and a reliable estimate can be made
of the amount of obligation.
Contingent liabilities

possible obligation or a present obligation that probably will
not require an outflow of resources or where a reliable
estimate of the obligation cannot be made.
Contingent assets

financial statements.
s. Earnings per share
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net
profit or loss for the year attributable to equity shareholders
after tax (and excluding post tax effect of any extra-ordinary
item) by the weighted average number of equity shares
outstanding during the year. The weighted average number
of equity shares outstanding during the year, are adjusted
for events of bonus issue to existing shareholders.
For the purpose of calculating diluted earnings per share,
the net profit or loss attributable to equity shareholders and
the weighted average number of shares outstanding are
adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potential equity shares,
if any, except when the results would be anti-dilutive.
The dilutive potential equity shares are deemed converted
as of the beginning of the period, unless they have been
issued at a later date.
t. Leases

Assets taken on finance lease are capitalized at an amount
equal to the fair value of the leased assets or the present
value of minimum lease payments at the inception of the
lease, whichever is lower. Such leased assets are depreciated
over the lease tenure or the useful life, whichever is shorter.
The lease payment is apportioned between the finance
charges and reduction to principal, i.e., outstanding liability.
The finance charge is allocated to the periods over the lease
tenure to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the
remaining liability.

impairment loss recognized in prior periods is recorded when there is
an indication that impairment loss recognized for the assets no longer
exists or has decreased. An impairment loss is reversed only to the
extent that the asset's carrying amount does not exceed the carrying
amount that would have been determined net of depreciation or
amortized, if no impairment loss has been recognized post impairment,
depreciation is provided on the revised carrying value of the asset

external and internal resources whether there is an indication that an
asset may be impaired.
h. Inventories
Raw materials, packaging materials and stores & spare parts are carried
at cost. Cost includes purchase price, (excluding those subsequently
recoverable by the enterprise from the concerned revenue authorities),
freight inwards and other expenditure incurred in bringing such
inventories to their present location and condition. In determining the
cost, weighted average cost method is used. The carrying cost of raw
materials, packaging materials and stores and spare parts are
appropriately written down when there is a decline in replacement cost
of such materials and finished products in which these will be
incorporated are expected to sell below cost.
Work in progress, manufactured finished goods and traded goods are
valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value. The comparison
of cost and net realisable value is made on an item by item basis. Cost
of work in progress and manufactured finished goods is determined on
the weighted average basis and comprises direct material, cost of
conversion and other costs incurred in bringing these inventories to
their present location and condition. Cost of traded goods is

based on an actuarial valuation carried out by an independent actuary
using the Projected Unit Credit Method, which recognizes each period of
service as giving rise to additional unit of employee benefit
entitlement and measures each unit separately to build up the final
obligation. The obligation is measured at the present value of the
estimated future cash flows. The discount rate used for determining the
present value of the obligation under the defined benefit plans, is
based on the market yields on Government securities as at the valuation
date having maturity periods approximating to the terms of the related
obligations. Actuarial gains and losses are recognized immediately in
the statement of profit and loss.

are recognized only to the extent there is reasonable certainty that
sufficient future taxable income will be available against which these
assets can be realized in future where as in cases of existence of
carry forward of losses or unabsorbed depreciation, deferred tax assets

reasonably certain that the ultimate collection will be made. Grants
related to depreciable assets are treated as deferred income which is
recognized in the statement of profit and loss on a systematic and
rational basis over the remaining period of life of the assets. Grants
related to non-depreciable assets are credited to capital reserve.
p. Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets
A provision is created when there is a present obligation as a result
of a past event that probably requires an outflow of resources and a
reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. A
disclosure for a contingent liability is made when there is a possible
obligation or a present obligation that may, but probably will not,
require an outflow of resources. When there is a possible obligation or
a present obligation in respect of which the likelihood of outflow of
resources is remote, no provision or disclosure is made.

profit or loss attributable to equity shareholders and the weighted
average number of shares outstanding are adjusted for the effects of
all dilutive potential equity shares, if any, except when the results
would be anti-dilutive.

payments at the inception of the lease, whichever is lower. Such leased
assets are depreciated over the lease tenure or the useful life,
whichever is shorter. The lease payment is apportioned between the
finance charges and reduction to principal, i.e., outstanding
liability. The finance charge is allocated to the periods over the
lease tenure to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the
remaining liability.
s. Cash Flow Statement

before tax is adjusted for the effect of transaction of non-cash nature
and any deferrals or accruals of past or future cash receipts or
payments. The cash flows from regular revenue generating operating
activities, investing and financing activities are segregated.

2. Use of Estimates
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets
and liabilities on the date of the financial statements, revenue and
expenses during the reporting period. Although such estimates and
assumptions are made on reasonable and prudent basis taking into
account all available information, actual results could differ from
these estimates and assumptions and such differences are recognised in
the period in which the results are crystallised.

d) Individual assets costing Rs.5,000 or less are fully depreciated in
the year of purchase.
e) Intangible assets comprise of Computer Software and are amortised
over a period of five years. All costs relating to up gradation
/enhancements are generally charged off as revenue expenditure unless
they bring significant additional benefits of enduring nature.
4. Impairment of Assets
An asset is treated as impaired when carrying cost of assets exceeds
its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is charged to the profit and
loss account when asset is identified as impaired. Reversal of
impairment loss recognised in prior periods is recorded when there is
an indication that impairment loss recognised for the assets no longer
exists or has decreased. An impairment loss is reversed only to the
extent that the asset's carrying amount does not exceed the carrying
amount that would have been determined net of depreciation or
amortised, if no impairment loss has been recognised Post impairment,
depreciation is provided on the revised carrying value of the asset
over its remaining useful life. The Company periodically assesses using
external and internal resources whether there is an indication that an
asset may be impaired.
5. Inventories
a) Raw materials, packaging materials and stores & spare parts are
carried at cost. Cost includes purchase price, (excluding those
subsequently recoverable by the enterprise from the concerned revenue
authorities), freight inwards and other expenditure incurred in
bringing such inventories to their present location and condition. In
determining the cost, weighted average cost method is used. The
carrying cost of raw materials, packaging materials and stores and
spare parts are appropriately written down when there is a decline in
replacement cost of such materials and finished products in which these
will be incorporated are expected to sell below cost.
b) Work in progress, manufactured finished goods and traded goods are
valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value. The comparison of
cost and net realisable value is made on an item by item basis. Cost of
work in progress and manufactured finished goods is determined on the
weighted average basis and comprises direct material, cost of
conversion and other costs incurred in bringing these inventories to
their present location and condition. Cost of traded goods is
determined on a weighted average basis. Finished products and work in
progress includes appropriate production overheads.

were initially recorded during the period, or reported in previous
financial statements, in so far as they relate to the acquisition of a
depreciable capital asset, are added to or deducted from the cost of
the asset and are depreciated over the balance life of the asset, and
in other cases, are accumulated in a "Foreign Currency Monetary Item
Translation Difference Account" in the enterprise's financial
statements and amortised over the balance period of such long-term
asset/liability but not beyond accounting period ending on or before
March 31, 2011

independent actuary using the Projected Unit Credit Method, which
recognises each period of service as giving rise to additional unit of
employee benefit entitlement and measures each unit separately to build
up the final obligation. The obligation is measured at the present
value of the estimated future cash flows. The discount rate used for
determining the present value of the obligation under the defined
benefit plans, is based on the market yields on Government securities
as at the valuation date having maturity periods approximating to the
terms of the related obligations. Actuarial gains and losses are
recognised immediately in the profit and loss account.

loss for the year attributable to equity shareholders after tax (and
including post tax effect of any extra-ordinary item) by the weighted
average number of equity shares outstanding during the year. The
weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period,
are adjusted for events of bonus issue to existing shareholders.
For the purpose of calculating diluted earnings per share, the net
profit or loss attributable to equity shareholders and the weighted
average number of shares outstanding are adjusted for the effects of
all dilutive potential equity shares, if any, except when the results
would be anti- dilutive.

fair value of the leased assets or the present value of minimum lease
payments at the inception of the lease, whichever is lower. Such leased
assets are depreciated over the lease tenure or the useful life,
whichever is shorter. The lease payment is apportioned between the
finance charges and reduction of outstanding liability. The finance
charge is allocated to the periods over the lease tenure to produce a
constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining liability.
