26.1. Principal revenue generation activity and major terms

The Company derives revenue principally from sale of Glassware product. The Company recognizes revenue when it satisfies a performance obligation in accordance with the provisions of contract with the customer. This is achieved when control of the product has been transferred to the customer, which is generally determined when title, ownership, risk of obsolescence and loss pass to the customer and the Company has the present right to payment, all of which occurs at a point in time upon shipment or delivery of the product. The Company collects GST on behalf of the Government, hence GST is not included in revenue from operations.

This section gives an overview of the significance of financial instruments for the Company and provides additional information on balance sheet items that contain financial instruments. The details of Material accounting policies, including the criteria for recognition, the basis of measurement and the basis on which income and expenses are recognised in respect of each class of financial asset, financial liability and equity instrument are disclosed in Note 1.2.(G & H) to the financial statements.

ii) Fair values hierarchy

The following table provides an analysis of financial instruments that are measured subsequent to initial recognition at fair value, grouped into Level 1 to Level 3, as described below:

Quoted prices in an active market (Level 1): This level of hierarchy includes financial assets that are measured by reference to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. This category consists of investment in quoted equity shares, and mutual fund investments.

Valuation techniques with observable inputs (Level 2): This level of hierarchy includes financial assets and liabilities, measured using inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e., as prices) or indirectly (i.e., derived from prices). This level of hierarchy includes Company''s over-the-counter (OTC) derivative contracts.

Valuation techniques with significant unobservable inputs (Level 3): This level of hierarchy includes financial assets and liabilities measured using inputs that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs). Fair values are determined in whole or in part, using a valuation model based on assumptions that are neither supported by prices from observable current market transactions in the same instrument nor are they based on available market data.

iii) Valuation process and technique used to determine fair value

Specific valuation techniques used to value financial instruments include:

(a) Quoted investments (Mutual Funds)- Net Asset Value

(b) Unquoted investments - As determined by Independent Valuer. Fair value estimates of equity investments are included in level-2 and are based on information relating to value of investee company''s net assets after required adjustments.

(c) The carrying amount of financial assets and financial liabilities measured at amortised cost in the financial statements are a reasonable approximation of their fair values since the Company does not anticipate that the carrying amounts would be significantly different from the values that would eventually be received or settled.

38. Financial Risk Management, Objectives and Policies A) Capital Management

i) Risk Management

The Company''s objectives when managing capital are to

- safeguard their ability to continue as a going concern, so that they can continue to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders, and

- maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital

In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the company may adjust the amount of dividends paid to shareholders, return capital to shareholders, issue new shares or sell assets to reduce debt. Consistent with others in the industry, the Company monitors capital on the basis of net debt to equity

The Company''s activities expose it to market risk, liquidity risk and credit risk. In order to minimise any adverse effects on the financial performance of the Company, the company has risk management policies as described below :-

i) Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk that counterparty will not meet its obligations under a financial instrument or customer contract, leading to a financial loss. The Company is exposed to credit risk from its operating activities (primarily trade receivables) and from its financing activities, including deposits with banks and financial institutions, foreign exchange transactions and other financial instruments. The Company only deals with parties which has good worthiness based on Company''s internal assessment.

Financial assets are written off when there is no reasonable expectation of recovery, such as a debtor failing to engage in a repayment plan with the Company. Where loans or receivables have been written off, the Company continues to engage in enforcement activity to attempt to recover the receivable due. Where recoveries are made, these are recognised as income in the statement of profit and loss.

Cash and cash equivalents and deposits: Balances and deposits with banks are subject to low credit risks due to good credit ratings assigned to the banks.

Investments: The Company limits its exposure to credit risk by generally investing in reputed mutual fund and counterparties that have a good credit ratings. The Company does not expect any credit losses from non-performance by these counter parties, and does not have any significant concentration of exposures to specific industry sectors.

Trade and other receivables: The Company measures the expected credit loss of trade receivables based on historical trend, industry practices and the business environment in which the entity operates. Loss rates are based on actual credit loss experience and past trends. The Maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date are given vide Note 12.

ii) Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is defined as the risk that the Company will not be able to settle or meet its obligations on time or at reasonable price. Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and marketable securities and the availability of funding through an adequate amount of credit facilities to meet obligations when due. The Company''s treasury team is responsible for liquidity, funding as well as settlement management. In addition, processes and policies related to such risks are overseen by senior management. Management monitors the Company''s liquidity position through rolling forecasts on the basis of expected cash flows.

iii) Market Risk

a) Foreign currency risk

The company is exposed to foreign exchange risk arising from foreign currency transactions, primarily with respect to the Pound, Euro and USD. Foreign exchange risk arises from recognised assets and liabilities denominated in a currency that is not the company''s functional currency. The company as per its overall strategy uses forward contracts to mitigate its risks associated with fluctuations in foreign currency and such contracts are not designated as hedges under Ind AS 109. The company does not use forward contracts and swaps for speculative purposes.

b) Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Company''s exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relates primarily to the Company''s short term borrowing with floating interest rates. The Company constantly monitors the credit markets and rebalances its financing strategies to achieve an optimal maturity profile and financing cost.

c) Price risk

i) Other Price Risk

Other price risk is the risk that the fair value of a financial instrument will fluctuate due to changes in market traded price. Other price risk arises from financial assets such as investments in equity instruments. The Company is exposed to price risk arising mainly from investments in equity instruments recognised at FVTOCI

41.2 Defined Benefit Plan:

41.2.1 Gratuity Plan

Every employee who has completed five years or more of service is entitled to gratuity on terms not less

favourable than the provisions of the Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972. The present value of defined obligation

and related current cost are measured using the Projected Unit Credit Method with actuarial valuation being

carried out at Balance Sheet date.

41.2.2 Risk Exposure

Defined benefit plans expose the Company to the following types of actuarial risks:

a) Interest rate risk: The defined benefit obligation calculated uses a discount rate based on government bonds. If the bond yield falls, the defined benefit obligation will tend to increase.

b) Salary risk: Higher than expected increases in salary will increase the defined benefit obligation.

c) Demographic risk: This is the risk of variability of results due to unsystematic nature of decrements that includes mortality, withdrawal, disability and retirement. The effect of these decrements on the defined benefits obligations is not straight forward and depends on the combination of salary increase, discount rate and vesting criteria. It is important not to overstate withdrawals because in the financial analysis the retirement benefit of the short career employee typically costs less per year as compared to a long service employee.

41. Disclosure pursuant to Indian Accounting Standard - 19 ''Employee Benefits''. (Contd.) The Gratuity Scheme is invested in policies offered by Life Insurance Corporation (LIC) of India .

41.2Defined Benefit Plan:

41.2.1 Gratuity Plan

Every employee who has completed five years or more of service is entitled to gratuity on terms not less favourable than the provisions of the Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972. The present value of defined obligation and related current cost are measured using the Projected Unit Credit Method with actuarial valuation being carried out at Balance Sheet date.

41 Disclosure pursuant to Indian Accounting Standard - 19 ''Employee Benefits''. (Contd.)

41.2.2 Risk Exposure

Defined benefit plans expose the Company to the following types of actuarial risks:

a) Interest rate risk: The defined benefit obligation calculated uses a discount rate based on government bonds. If the bond yield falls, the defined benefit obligation will tend to increase.

b) Salary risk: Higher than expected increases in salary will increase the defined benefit obligation.

c) Demographic risk: This is the risk of variability of results due to unsystematic nature of decrements that includes mortality, withdrawal, disability and retirement. The effect of these decrements on the defined benefits obligations is not straight forward and depends on the combination of salary increase, discount rate and vesting criteria. It is important not to overstate withdrawals because in the financial analysis the retirement benefit of the short career employee typically costs less per year as compared to a long service employee.

defined benefit (asset)/ liability and its components :

The details of significant accounting policies, including the criteria for recognition, the basis of measurement and the basis on which income and expenses are recognised in respect of each class of financial asset, financial liability and equity instrument are disclosed in Note 1.2.(G & H) to the financial statements.

ii) Fair values hierarchy

The following table provides an analysis of financial instruments that are measured subsequent to initial recognition at fair value, grouped into Level 1 to Level 3, as described below:

Quoted prices in an active market (Level 1): This level of hierarchy includes financial assets that are measured by reference to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. This category consists of investment in quoted equity shares, and mutual fund investments.

Valuation techniques with observable inputs (Level 2): This level of hierarchy includes financial assets and liabilities, measured using inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e., as prices) or indirectly (i.e., derived from prices). This level of hierarchy includes Company''s over-the-counter (OTC) derivative contracts.

Valuation techniques with significant unobservable inputs (Level 3): This level of hierarchy includes financial assets and liabilities measured using inputs that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs). Fair values are determined in whole or in part, using a valuation model based on assumptions that are neither supported by prices from observable current market transactions in the same instrument nor are they based on available market data.

(iii) Valuation process and technique used to determine fair value

Specific valuation techniques used to value financial instruments include:

(a) Quoted investments (Mutual Funds)- Net Asset Value

(b) Unquoted investments - As determined by Independent Valuer. Fair value estimates of equity investments are included in level-2 and are based on information relating to value of investee company''s net assets after required adjustments.

(c) The carrying amount of financial assets and financial liabilities measured at amortised cost in the financial statements are a reasonable approximation of their fair values since the Company does not anticipate that the carrying amounts would be significantly different from the values that would eventually be received or settled.

A) Capital Management i) Risk Management

The Company''s objectives when managing capital are to

- safeguard their ability to continue as a going concern, so that they can continue to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders, and

- maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital

In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the company may adjust the amount of dividends paid to shareholders, return capital to shareholders, issue new shares or sell assets to reduce debt. Consistent with others in the industry, the Company monitors capital on the basis of net debt to equity ratio and maturity profile of overall debt portfolio of the Company. Net debt implies total borrowings of the Company as reduced by Cash and Cash Equivalent and Equity comprises all components attributable to the owners of the Company

B) Financial Risk Management

The Company''s activities expose it to market risk, liquidity risk and credit risk. In order to minimise any adverse effects on the financial performance of the Company, the company has risk management policies as described below :-

i) Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk that counterparty will not meet its obligations under a financial instrument or customer contract, leading to a financial loss. The Company is exposed to credit risk from its operating activities (primarily trade receivables) and from its financing activities, including deposits with banks and financial institutions, foreign exchange transactions and other financial instruments. The Company only deals with parties which has good worthiness based on Company''s internal assessment.

Financial assets are written off when there is no reasonable expectation of recovery, such as a debtor failing to engage in a repayment plan with the Company. Where loans or receivables have been written off, the Company continues to engage in enforcement activity to attempt to recover the receivable due. Where recoveries are made, these are recognised as income in the statement of profit and loss.

Cash and cash equivalents and deposits: Balances and deposits with banks are subject to low credit risks due to good credit ratings assigned to the banks.

Investments: The Company limits its exposure to credit risk by generally investing in reputed mutual fund and counterparties that have a good credit ratings. The Company does not expect any credit losses from non-performance by these counter parties, and does not have any significant concentration of exposures to specific industry sectors.

Trade and other receivables: The Company measures the expected credit loss of trade receivables based on historical trend, industry practices and the business environment in which the entity operates. Loss rates are based on actual credit loss experience and past trends. The Maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date are given vide Note 13

ii) Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is defined as the risk that the Company will not be able to settle or meet its obligations on time or at reasonable price. Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and marketable securities and the availability of funding through an adequate amount of credit facilities to meet obligations when due. The Company''s treasury team is responsible for liquidity, funding as well as settlement management. In addition, processes and policies related to such risks are overseen by senior management. Management monitors the Company''s liquidity position through rolling forecasts on the basis of expected cash flows.

iii) Market Risk

a) Foreign currency risk

The company is exposed to foreign exchange risk arising from foreign currency transactions, primarily with respect to the Pound, Euro, USD. Foreign exchange risk arises from recognised assets and liabilities denominated in a currency that is not the company''s functional currency. The company as per its overall strategy uses forward contracts to mitigate its risks associated with fluctuations in foreign currency and such contracts are not designated as hedges under Ind AS 109. The company does not use forward contracts and swaps for speculative purposes.

b) Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Company''s exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relates primarily to the Company''s short term borrowing with floating interest rates. The Company constantly monitors the credit markets and rebalances its financing strategies to achieve an optimal maturity profile and financing cost.

42.2 Defined Benefit Plan:

42.2.1 Gratuity Plan

Every employee who has completed five years or more of service is entitled to gratuity on terms not less

favourable than the provisions of the Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972. The present value of defined obligation and

related current cost are measured using the Projected Unit Credit Method with actuarial valuation being carried

out at Balance Sheet date.

42.2.2 Risk Exposure

Defined benefit plans expose the Company to the following types of actuarial risks:

a) Interest rate risk: The defined benefit obligation calculated uses a discount rate based on government bonds. If the bond yield falls, the defined benefit obligation will tend to increase.

b) Salary risk: Higher than expected increases in salary will increase the defined benefit obligation.

c) Demographic risk: This is the risk of variability of results due to unsystematic nature of decrements that includes mortality, withdrawal, disability and retirement. The effect of these decrements on the defined benefits obligations is not straight forward and depends on the combination of salary increase, discount rate and vesting criteria. It is important not to overstate withdrawals because in the financial analysis the retirement benefit of the short career employee typically costs less per year as compared to a long service employee.

The Gratuity Scheme is invested in policies offered by Life Insurance Corporation (LIC) of India . The information on the allocation of the fund into major asset classes and expected return on each major class are not readily available. The expected rate of return on plan assets is based on market expectations, at the beginning of the period, for returns over the entire life of the related obligation.

The company does not use forward contracts and swaps for speculative purposes.

b) Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Company''s exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relates primarily to the Company''s short term borrowing with floating interest rates.

Note 2: The Code on Social Security, 2020 (''Code'') relating to employee benefits during employment and postemployment benefits received Presidential assent in September 2020. The Code has been published in the Gazette of India. However, the date on which the Code will come into effect has not been notified and the final rules/interpretation have not yet been issued. The Company will assess the impact of the Code when it comes into effect and will record any related impact in the period the Code becomes effective.

43.2 Defined Benefit Plan:

43.2.1 Gratuity Plan

Every employee who has completed five years or more of service is entitled to gratuity on terms not less

favourable than the provisions of the Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972. The present value of defined obligation and

related current cost are measured using the Projected Unit Credit Method with actuarial valuation being carried

out at Balance Sheet date.

43.2.2 Risk Exposure

Defined benefit plans expose the Company to the following types of actuarial risks:

a) Interest Rate Risk: The defined benefit obligation calculated uses a discount rate based on government bonds. If the bond yield falls, the defined benefit obligation will tend to increase.

b) Salary Risk: Higher than expected increases in salary will increase the defined benefit obligation.

c) Demographic Risk: This is the risk of variability of results due to unsystematic nature of decrements that includes mortality, withdrawal, disability and retirement. The effect of these decrements on the defined benefits obligations is not straight forward and depends on the combination of salary increase, discount rate and vesting criteria. It is important not to overstate withdrawals because in the financial analysis the retirement benefit of the short career employee typically costs less per year as compared to a long service employee.

The Gratuity Scheme is invested in policies offered by Life Insurance Corporation (LIC) of India . The information on the allocation of the fund into major asset classes and expected return on each major class are not readily available. The expected rate of return on plan assets is based on market expectations, at the beginning of the

1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

1.1 Basis of Preparation of financial statements

1.1.1. Compliance with Ind-AS

The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with Indian Accounting Standards (“Ind-AS’'') as issued by the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (“MCA”).

For all periods up to and including the year ended 31st March 2017, the Company had prepared its Standalone financial statements in accordance with accounting standards notified under the section 133 of the Companies Act 2013, read together with Rule 7 of the Companies (Accounts) Rules, 2014 [Previous GAAP].

These financial statements for the year ended 31st March 2018 are the first financial statement under Indian Accounting Standards (“Ind-AS’'') consequent to the notification of The Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 (the Rules) as amended issued by the MCA. Further, in accordance with the Rules, the Company has restated its Balance Sheet as at 1st April 2016 and financial statements for the year ended as at 31stMarch 2017 also as per Ind-AS. For preparation of opening balance sheet under Ind-AS as at 1st April, 2016, the Company has availed exemptions and first time adoption policies in accordance with Ind-AS 101 “First-time Adoption of Indian Accounting Standards”, the details of which have been explained thereof in Note no. 37

1.1.2.Classification of current and non-current

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 Ind AS 1 - Presentation of financial Statements and Schedule III to the Companies Act, 2013. Based on the nature of products and the time between the acquisition of assets for processing and their realisation in cash and cash equivalents, the Company has ascertained its operating cycle as 12 months for the purpose of current/non-current classification of assets and liabilities.

1.1.3 Historical Cost Convention

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the generally accepted accounting principles in India under the historical cost convention, except for the following:

- Certain financial assets and liabilities (including derivative instruments) that is measured at fair value:

- defined benefit plans - plan assets measured at fair value

2.1. Key Accounting Estimates & Judgements:

The preparation of the Company’s financial statements requires the management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities, and the accompanying disclosures, and the disclosure of contingent liabilities. Uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets or liabilities affected in future periods.

The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year, are described below:

2.1.1. Impairment of Non-current Assets

Ind AS 36 requires that the Company assesses conditions that could cause an asset or a Cash Generating Unit (CGU) to become impaired and to test recoverability of potentially impaired assets. These conditions include internal and external factors such as the Company’s market capitalization, significant changes in the Company’s planned use of the assets or a significant adverse change in the expected prices, sales volumes or raw material cost. The identification of CGUs involves judgment, including assessment of where active markets exist, and the level of interdependency of cash inflows. CGU is usually the individual plant, unless the asset or asset Company is an integral part of a value chain where no independent prices for the intermediate products exist, a Company of plants is combined and managed to serve a common market, or where circumstances otherwise indicate significant interdependencies.

Determination ofthe recoverable amount involves management estimates on highly uncertain matters, such as commodity prices and their impact on markets and prices for upgraded products, development in demand, inflation, operating expenses and tax and legal systems. The Company uses internal business plans, quoted market prices and the Company’s best estimate of commodity prices, currency rates, discount rates and other relevant information. A detailed forecast is developed for a period of three to five years with projections thereafter. The Company does not include a general growth factor to volumes or cash flows for the purpose of impairment tests, however, cash flows are generally increased by expected inflation and market recovery towards previously observed volumes is considered.

2.1.2. Employee retirement plans

The Company provides defined benefit employee retirement plans. Measurement of obligations under such plans require numerous assumptions and estimates that can have a significant impact on the recognised costs and obligation, such as future salary level, discount rate, attrition rate and mortality etc.

2.1.3. Income taxes

The Company calculates income tax expense based on reported income. Deferred income tax expense is calculated based on the differences between the carrying value of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and their respective tax basis that are considered temporary in nature. Valuation of deferred tax assets is dependent on management’s assessment of future recoverability of the deferred benefit. Expected recoverability may result from expected taxable income in the future, planned transactions or planned tax optimizing measures. Economic conditions may change and lead to a different conclusion regarding recoverability.

2.1.4. Classification of leases

The Company enters into leasing arrangements for various assets. The classification of the leasing arrangement as a finance lease or operating lease is based on an assessment of several factors, including, but not limited to, transfer of ownership of leased asset at end of lease term, lessee’s option to purchase and estimated certainty of exercise of such option, proportion of lease term to the asset’s economic life, proportion of present value of minimum lease payments to fair value of leased asset and extent of specialised nature of the leased asset.

2.1.5. Useful lives of depreciable/ amortisable assets (tangible and intangible)

Management reviews its estimate of the useful lives of depreciable/ amortisable assets at each reporting date, based on the expected utility of the assets. Uncertainties in these estimates relate to technical and economic obsolescence that may change the utility of certain software, customer relationships, IT equipment and other plant and equipment.

2.1.6. Recoverability of advances/ receivables

At each balance sheet date, based on discussions with the respective counter-parties and internal assessment of their credit worthiness, the management assesses the recoverability of outstanding receivables and advances. Such assessment requires significant management judgement based on financial position of the counter-parties, market information and other relevant factor.

2.1.7. Fair value measurements

The Company applies valuation techniques to determine the fair value of financial instruments (where active market quotes are not available) and non-financial assets. This involves developing estimates and assumptions consistent with the market participants to price the instrument. The Company’s assumptions are based on observable data as far as possible, otherwise on the best information available. Estimated fair values may vary from the actual prices that would be achieved in an arm’s length transaction at the reporting date.

2.1.8. Contingent assets and liabilities, uncertain assets and liabilities

Liabilities that are uncertain in timing or amount are recognised when a liability arises from a past event and an outflow of cash or other resources is probable and can be reasonably estimated. Contingent liabilities are possible obligations where a future event will determine whether Company will be required to make a payment to settle the liability, or where the size of the payment cannot be determined reliably. Material contingent liabilities are disclosed unless a future payment is considered remote. Evaluation of uncertain liabilities and contingent liabilities and assets requires judgment and assumptions regarding the probability of realization and the timing and amount, or range of amounts, that may ultimately be incurred. Such estimates may vary from the ultimate outcome as a result of differing interpretations of laws and facts.

2.2. New Standards / Amendments to Existing Standard issued but not yet effective upto the date of issuance of the Company’s Financial Statement are disclosed below:

2.2.1. Ind AS 115-Revenue from Contracts with Customers.

The details of significant accounting policies, including the criteria for recognition, the basis of measurement and the basis on which income and expenses are recognised in respect of each class of financial asset, financial liability and equity instrument are disclosed in Note 1.2.(G & H) to the financial statements.

i) Financial assets & liabilities

The following tables presents the carrying value and fair value of each category of financial assets and liabilities as at 31st March 2018, 31st March 2017 and 1st April 2016.

ii) Fair values hierarchy

The following table provides an analysis of financial instruments that are measured subsequent to initial recognition at fair value, grouped into Level 1 to Level 3, as described below:

Quoted prices in an active market (Level 1): This level of hierarchy includes financial assets that are measured by reference to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. This category consists of investment in quoted equity shares and mutual fund investments.

Valuation techniques with observable inputs (Level 2): This level of hierarchy includes financial assets and liabilities, measured using inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e., as prices) or indirectly (i.e., derived from prices). This level of hierarchy includes Company’s over-the-counter (OTC) derivative contracts.

Valuation techniques with significant unobservable inputs (Level 3): This level of hierarchy includes financial assets and liabilities measured using inputs that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs). Fair values are determined in whole or in part, using a valuation model based on assumptions that are neither supported by prices from observable current market transactions in the same instrument nor are they based on available market data.

(iii) Valuation process and technique used to determine fair value

Specific valuation techniques used to value financial instruments include:

(a) Quoted investments (Mutual Funds)- Net Asset Value

(b) Quoted investments - As determined by Independent Valuer. The equity shares of Genesis Exports Limited are listed but have not been traded for many years. Fair value estimates of equity investments are included in level-2 and are based on information relating to value of investee company’s net assets

(c) The carrying amount of financial assets and financial liabilities measured at amortised cost in the financial statements are a reasonable approximation of their fair values since the Company does not anticipate that the carrying amounts would be significantly different from the values that would eventually be received or settled.

5. Financial Risk Management, Objectives and Policies

A) Capital Management

i) Risk Management

The Company’s objectives when managing capital are to

- safeguard their ability to continue as a going concern, so that they can continue to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders, and

Customer credit risk is managed by the Company’s established policy, procedures and control relating to customer credit risk management. Outstanding customer receivables are regularly monitored and reconciled. Based onhistorical trend, industry practice and the business environment in which the Company operates, an impairment analysis is performed at each reporting date for trade receivables. The maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date is the carrying value of each class of financial assets disclosed in Note 12.

The Company constantly monitors the credit markets and rebalances its financing strategies to achieve an optimal maturity profile and financing cost

c) Price risk

i) Other Price Risk

Ind AS estimates as at 1st April 2016 are consistent with the estimates as at the same date made in conformity with previous GAAP. The Company made estimates for following items in accordance with Ind AS at the date of transition as these were not required under previous GAAP:

a. Investment in equity instruments carried at FVTPL or FVOCI

b. Impairment of financial assets based on expected credit loss model.

2 Classification and measurement of financial assets

Ind AS 101 requires an entity to assess classification of financial assets on the basis of facts and circumstances existing as on the date of transition. Further, the standard permits measurement of financial assets accounted at amortised cost based on facts and circumstances existing at the date of transition if retrospective application is impracticable.

Accordingly, the Company has determined the classification of financial assets based on facts and circumstances that exist on the date of transition. Measurement of the financial assets accounted at amortised cost has been done retrospectively.

3 De-recognition of financial assets and liabilities

As per Para B2 of Ind AS 101, an entity should apply the derecognition requirements in Ind AS 109, “Financial Instruments”, prospectively for transactions occurring on or after the date of transition to Ind AS. However, Para B3 gives an option to the entity to apply the derecognition requirements from a date of its choice if the information required to apply Ind AS 109 to financial assets and financial liabilities derecognised as a result of past transactions was obtained at the initially accounting for those transactions. The Company has elected to apply the de-recognition provisions of Ind AS 109 prospectively from the date of transition to Ind AS.

(i) Property, Plant & Equipment

The Company has considered fair value for Property, viz land admeasuring over 13.64 acres, situated in India, with impact of INR 186.03 Lakhs in accordance with stipulations of Ind AS 101 with the resultant impact being accounted for in the Reserves (Net of Tax)

(ii) Leases

In respect of certain long-term arrangements, existing at the date of transition and identified to be in the nature of operating lease where the Company is lessee, the underlying assets have been derecognised on the date of transition and prepaid lease rentals have been recognised which is amortised by way of rent over the remaining useful life of the leased asset.

(iii) Non- Current Investments

In the Financial Statements prepared under Previous GAAP, Non-current Investments ofthe Company were measured at cost less provision for diminution (other than temporary). Under Ind AS, the Company has recognised such Quoted Equity Instruments at FVOCI through an irrevocable election.

As at 1st April, 2016, the difference between the Fair value of Non-Current Investments as per Ind AS and their corresponding carrying amount as per Financial Statements prepared under Previous GAAP, has resulted in an increase in the carrying amount of these investments by INR 16371.71 Lakhs. Deferred tax liability (net) amounting to INR 1889.30 Lakhs has been recognised on such investments. Consequently, Equity has increased by INR 14482.41 Lakhs as at date of transition to Ind AS.

As at 31st March 2017, the carrying amount of these investments the difference between the Fair value of Non-Current Investments as per Ind AS and their corresponding carrying amount as per Financial Statements prepared under Previous GAAP, has resulted in an increase in the carrying amount of these investments by INR 14941.19 Lakhs which has been recognised directly in Other Comprehensive Income (Equity). Deferred tax liability (net) amounting to INR 1,724.21 Lakhs has been recognised on such fair valuation gain.

(iv) Current Investments

In the financial statements prepared under Previous GAAP, Current Investments ofthe Company were measured at lower of cost or fair value. Under Ind AS, these investments have been classified as FVTPL on the date of transition. The fair value changes are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

On the date of transition to Ind AS, the difference between the fair value of Current Investments as per Ind AS and their corresponding carrying amount as per financial statements prepared under Previous GAAP, has resulted in an increase in the carrying amount of these investments by INR 1090.95 Lakhs which has been recognised directly in retained earnings (Equity). Deferred tax liability (net) amounting to INR 377.56 Lakhs has been recognised on such fair valuation gain.

As at 31st March 2017, the difference between the fair value of Current Investments as per Ind AS and their corresponding carrying amount as per financial statements prepared under Previous GAAP, has resulted in an increase in the carrying amount of these investments by INR 2189.77 Lakhs. Fair valuation gain for the year ended 31st March 2017, amounted to INR 1098.83 Lakhs and the same has been recognised in Other income in Statement of Profit and Loss. Correspondingly, deferred tax benefit amounting to INR 380.28 Lakhs has been recognised in Statement of Profit and Loss.

(v) Trade Receivables and due from customers

As per Ind AS 109, the Company is required to apply Expected Credit Loss model for recognizing the allowance for doubtful debts. As a result the allowance for doubtful debts increased by INR 17.23 Lakhs as on 31st March 2017 and INR NIL as on 1st April, 2016 (transition date). Consequently, Retained Earnings as at 1st April, 2016 and Profit and Loss for the year ended 31st March 2017 have been adjusted accordingly.

(vi) Deferred Tax

In the financial statements prepared under Previous GAAP, Deferred Tax was accounted as per the Income Statement approach which required creation of Deferred Tax Asset/Liability on temporary differences between taxable profit and accounting profit. Under Ind AS, Deferred Tax is accounted as per the Balance Sheet approach which requires creation of Deferred Tax Asset/Liability on temporary differences between the carrying amount of an asset/liability in the Balance Sheet and its corresponding tax base. The application of Ind AS has resulted in recognition of Deferred Tax on new temporary differences which were not required to be recognised under Previous GAAP.

In addition, the various transitional adjustments lead to temporary differences. Deferred tax adjustments are recognised in correlation to the underlying transaction either in Retained Earnings or a separate component of Equity. On the date of transition, the net impact on Deferred Tax liabilities is of INR 2310.22 Lakhs and on 31st March 2017 is of INR 2519.44 Lakhs.

(vii) Proposed Dividend

In the financial statements prepared under Previous GAAP, dividend on Equity shares recommended by the Board of Directors after the end of reporting period but before the Financial Statements were approved for issue, was recognised as a liability in the Financial Statements in the reporting period relating to which dividend was proposed. Under Ind AS, such dividend is recognised in the reporting period in which the same is approved by the members in a general meeting.

On the date of transition, the above change in accounting treatment of Proposed Dividend has resulted in increase in Equity with a corresponding decrease in Provisions by INR 1,202.38 Lakhs. As at 31st March 2017 above change has resulted in an increase in Equity with a corresponding decrease in Provisions by INR 1,335.97 Lakhs. The above change however, does not affect the Profit before tax and Profit after tax for the year ended 31st March 2017.

(viii) Revenue from Operations

Under Previous GAAP, Revenue is measured at transaction value. Under Ind AS, Revenue is recognised at fair value of consideration received or receivable which require adjustment of all discounts and rebates as netted from Revenue. Moreover, under Previous GAAP, Revenue from sale of goods was presented net of Excise duty whereas under Ind AS, the Revenue from sale of goods is presented inclusive of excise duty. The excise duty is presented on the face of the Statement of Profit and Loss as part of expenses.

(ix) Remeasurement of post-employment benefit obligations

Under Ind AS, Remeasurement i.e. actuarial gains and losses and the return on plan assets, excluding amounts included in the net interest expense on the net defined liability, are recognised in Other Comprehensive Income. Under the Previous GAAP, these Remeasurement were forming part ofthe Profit or Loss for the year. As a result of this change, the profit for the year ended 31st March 2017 decreased by INR 24.48 Lakhs. There is no impact on the total equity as at 31 March 2017

7.1 Defined Benefit Plan:

7.1.1 Gratuity Plan

Every employee who has completed five years or more of service is entitled to gratuity on terms not less favourable than the provisions of the Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972. The present value of defined obligation and related current cost are measured using the Projected Unit Credit Method with actuarial valuation being carried out at Balance Sheet date.

7.1.2 Risk Exposure

Defined benefit plans expose the Company to the following types of actuarial risks:

a) Interest rate risk: The defined benefit obligation calculated uses a discount rate based on government bonds. If the bond yield falls, the defined benefit obligation will tend to increase.

b) Salary risk: Higher than expected increases in salary will increase the defined benefit obligation.

c) Demographic risk: This is the risk of variability of results due to unsystematic nature of decrements that includes mortality, withdrawal, disability and retirement. The effect of these decrements on the defined benefits obligations is not straight forward and depends on the combination of salary increase, discount rate and vesting criteria. It is important not to overstate withdrawals because in the financial analysis the retirement benefit of the short career employee typically costs less per year as compared to a long service employee.

7.1.3 Reconciliation of the net defined benefit (asset)/ liability

The following table shows a reconciliation from the opening balances to the closing balances for the net defined benefit (asset)/ liability and its components:

7.1.4 Reconciliation of the Plan Assets

The following table shows a reconciliation from the opening balances to the closing balances for the Plan Assets and its components:

The Gratuity Scheme is invested in policies offered by Life Insurance Corporation (LIC) of India. The information on the allocation of the fund into major asset classes and expected return on each major class are not readily available. The expected rate of return on plan assets is based on market expectations, at the beginning of the period, for returns over the entire life of the related obligation.

7.1.5 Asset Liability Matching Strategy

The Company’s investment is in Cash Accumulation Plan/Traditional Plan of various Insurance Companies, the investment are being managed by these insurance companies and at the year end interest is being credited to the fund value. The Company has not changed the process used to manage its risk from previous periods. The Company’s investment are fully secured and would be sufficient to cover its obligations.

7.1.6 At 31st March 2018, the weighted average duration of the defined benefit obligation was 5.35 years (previous year 8.21 years). The distribution of the timing of benefits payment i.e., the maturity analysis of the benefit payments is as follows :

7.1.7 The Company expects to contribute INR 137.49 Lakhs (previous year INR 112.17 Lakhs) to its gratuity fund in 2018-19.

7.1.8 Sensitivity Analysis

The sensitivity analysis below have been determined based on a method that extrapolates the impact on defined benefit obligation as a result of reasonable changes in key assumptions occurring at the end of the reporting period. Reasonably possible changes at the reporting date to one of the relevant actuarial assumptions, holding other assumptions constant, would have affected the defined benefit obligation by the amounts shown below:

Although the analysis does not take account of the full distribution of cash flows expected under the plan, it does provide an approximation of the sensitivity of the assumptions shown.
