a) Property, Plant and Equipment
All items of property, plant and equipment are stated at acquisition cost net of accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any; Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the items. No CENVAT credit is avail on the assets capitalized.
Subsequent costs are included in the carrying amount of asset 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. All other repairs and maintenance expenses are charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss during the period in which they are incurred. Gains or losses arising on retirement or disposal of assets are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Property, plant and equipment which are not ready for intended use as on the reporting date are disclosed as Capital work-in-progressâ.
b) Depreciation / amortization on property, plant and equipment
Depreciable amount for Property, plant and equipment is the cost of an asset, less its residual value. Depreciation on Property, plant and equipment is provided on the written down value method (except Aircraft where depreciation has been charged at straight line value method to provide more reliable estimate of value of assets) over the useful lives of assets as prescribed under para C of Schedule II of the Companies Act, 2013.
Depreciation is calculated on a pro-rata basis from the date of acquisition/installation till the date, the assets are sold or disposed off. Leasehold land is amortized over period of lease. Assets costing individually up to 5000 are written off to statement of profit and Loss.
c) Impairment of Property, plant and equipment
The carrying amounts of assets are reviewed at each Balance Sheet date to assess if there is any indication of impairment based on internal/external factors. An impairment loss on such assessment will be recognized wherever the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount of the assets is net selling price or value in use, whichever is higher. While assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to the presentvalue by using weighted average cost of capital. A previously recognised impairment loss is further provided or reversed depending on changes in the circumstances and to the extent that carrying amount of the assets does not exceed the carrying amount that will be determined if no impairment loss had previously been recognised.
d) De-recognition of property, plant and equipment
The carrying amount of an item of Property, plant and equipment is de-recognised on disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. The gain or loss arising from the derecognition of an item of Property, plant and equipment is measured as the difference between the net disposal in proceeds and the carrying amount of the item and is recognised in the statement of profit and loss when the item is de-recognised.
e) Borrowings and Borrowing costs
Borrowings are initially recognized at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are removed from the balance sheet when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged, cancelled or expired. 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 date.
Borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets are capitalized as part of the cost of such assets. A qualifying asset is one that necessarily takes substantial period of time to get ready for intended use. All other borrowing costs are charged to the statement of Profit and Loss in the period in which they are incurred.
f) Financial Instruments - Financial Asset
The Company classifies its financial assets in the following measurement categories:
(I) Those to be measured subsequently at fair value (either through Other Comprehensive Income, or through profit or loss)
(II) Those measured at amortised cost
The classification depends on the business model of the entity for managing financial assets and the contractual terms of the cash flows. For assets measured at fair value, gains and losses will either be recorded in Other Comprehensive Income or profit or loss. For investments in debt instruments, this will depend on the business model in which the investment is held.
(I) Initial Recognition
Financial assets are recognised when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Financial assets are recognised initially at fair value plus, in the case of financial assets not recorded at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs that are attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset. Transaction costs of financial assets carried atfair value through profit or loss are expensed in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
(II) Subsequent Measurement:
After Initial recognition, financial assets are measured at;
(i) Financial assets carried at amortized cost
(ii) Financial assets atfair value through profit and loss
g) Debt Instruments
(I) Measured at amortized cost
Financial Assets that are held for collection of contractual cash flow where those cash flows represent solely payment of principal and interest are measured at amortised cost. Interest income from these financial assets is included in interest income using the Effective Interest Rate (EIR) method the amortisation of EIR and loss arising from impairment, if any is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
(II) Measured atfair value through profit or loss (FVTPL)
A financial asset not classified as either amortised cost or FVTOCI, is classified as Fair Value through Profit or Loss (FVTPL). Such financial assets are measured atfair value with all changes in fair value, including interest income and dividend income if any, recognised as other income in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
âFinancial assets that are held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both, selling financial assets and collecting contractual cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest, are subsequently measured at fair value through Other Comprehensive Income (FVTOCI). Fair value movements are recognised in the OCI. Interest income measured using the EIR method and impairment losses, if any are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss. On de-recognition, cumulative gain/ (loss) previously recognised in OCI is reclassified from the equity to other income in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
h) Impairment of financial assets
The Company assesses on a forward-looking basis the expected credit losses (ECL) associated with its financial assets carried at amortised cost and FVTPL. The impairment methodology applied depends on whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk.
For trade receivable only, the Company applies the simplified approach permitted by Ind AS 109 Financial Instruments, which requires expected lifetime losses to be recognised from initial recognition of such receivables.
Lifetime ECL are the expected credit losses resulting from all possible default events over the expected life of a financial instrument. ECL is the difference between all contractual cash flows that are due to the Company in accordance with the contract and all the cash flows that the entity expects to receive (i.e., all cash shortfalls), discounted at the original EIR. When estimating the cash flows, an entity is required to consider all contractual terms of the financial instrument (including prepayment, extension, call and similar options) over the expected life of the financial instrument.
i) De-recognition of financial assets
A financial asset is de-recognised only when the Company
(i) has transferred the rights to receive cash flows from the financial asset or
(ii) 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
âWhere 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 de-recognised. Where the entity has not transferred substantially all risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset, the financial asset is not de-recognised"
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 de-recognised 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 at FVTPL
Financial liabilities are classified as at FVTPL when the financial liability is held for trading or are designated upon initial recognition as FVTPL. Gains or losses on financial liabilities held for trading are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
k) Other Financial liabilities
(I) Classification as debt or equity
Financial liabilities and equity instruments issued by the Company are classified according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into and the definitions of a financial liability and an equity instrument.
(II) Initial recognition and measurement
Financial liabilities are recognised when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Financial liabilities are initially measured at the fair value.
(III) Subsequent measurement
Financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method. Financial liabilities carried at fair value through profit or loss is measured at fair value with all changes in fair value recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
(IV) De-recognition:
A financial liability is de-recognised when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged, cancelled or expires.
l) Off-setting 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 realise 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.
The Company measures all its investments in equity instruments other than those in subsidiary companies, at fair value. The management of the Company has elected to present fair value gains and losses on such equity investments as at the transition date in profit and loss and there is change subsequent reclassification of these fair value gains and losses to the Statement of Profit and Loss, and Changes in the fair value of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss. Dividends from such investments continue to be recognized in profit or loss as other income when the right to receive payment is established.
Impairment losses (and reversal of impairment losses) on equity investments measured at FVTPL are not reported separately from other changes in fair value.
n) Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents in the balance sheet comprise cash at bank and in hand and short-term deposit with original maturity up to three months, which are subject to insignificant risk of changes in value.
For the purpose of presentation in the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents consists of cash and short-term deposit, as defined above, net of outstanding bank overdraft, if any; as they are considered as an integral part of Companyâs cash management.
o) Inventories
Stock in trade is valued at lower of cost and net reliasable value. Cost is determined on weighted average cost method, which is determined on their specific individual costs which includes only purchase cost.
p) Revenue Recognition
âRevenue is the gross inflow of economic benefits received/receivable by the entity on its own account. Revenue is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Company and the revenue can be reliably measured, regardless of when the payment is being made. Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, net of returns and allowances, trade discounts and volume rebates, taking into account contractually defined terms of payment and excluding taxes or duties collected on behalf of the government.â
(I) Sale of Shares
Revenue from sale of shares is recognised at the time of transaction
(II) Interest Income
Interest income is recognised by applying (EIR) to the gross carrying amount of financial assets other than credit-impaired assets and financial assets classified as measured at FVTPL, taking into account the amount outstanding and the applicable interest rate. Interest income is recognised on nonperforming assets at net of ECL.
(a) As the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments or receipts through the expected life of the financial asset to the gross carrying amount of a financial asset
(b) By considering all the contractual terms of the financial instrument (for example, prepayment, extension, call and similar options) in estimating the cash flows
(c) Including all fees paid or received between parties to the contract that are an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs, and all other premiums or discounts
(III) Dividend Income
Dividend income is recognised when the right to receive the payment is established
(IV) Net gain on Fair value changes
Any differences between the fair values of financial assets classified as FVTPL held by the Company on the balance sheet date is recognised as an unrealised gain / loss. In cases there is a net gain in the aggregate, the same is recognised in âNet gains on fair value changesâ under Revenue from operations and if there is a net loss the same is disclosed as âNet loss on fair value changesâ under Expenses in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
q) Foreign currency transactions
(I) Functional and presentation currency
Items included in the Financial Statements of the Company are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the Company operates (âfunctional currencyâ). The Financial Statements of the Company are presented in Indian currency (INR), which is also the functional and presentation currency of the Company.
(II) Transactions and Translation
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions. Monetary items denominated in foreign currencies at the year-end are restated at closing rates.
Non-monetary items which are carried in terms of historical cost denominated in foreign currency are reported using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction. Non-monetary items that are measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value
was determined. Translation differences on assets and liabilities carried at fair value are reported as part of the fair value gain/ (loss) Foreign exchange gain/(loss) resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at year end exchange rates are generally recognized in profit or loss
All foreign exchange gain / (loss) are presented in the Statement of Profit and Loss on a net basis within other income/ (expense)
r) Employee Benefits Short-term employee benefits
All employee benefits payable within 12 months of service such as salaries, wages, bonus, ex-gratia, medical benefits etc. are recognised in the year in which the employees render the related service and are presented as current employee benefit obligations within the Balance Sheet.
Defined benefit Plans:
The Company pays gratuity to the employees who have completed five years of service with the company at the time of resignation / superannuation. The gratuity is paid @15days basic salary for every completed year of service as per the payment of gratuity act 1972.
The valuation has been carried out using the Project Unit Credit Method as per IND AS-19 (refer paragraph 67 of IND AS-19) to determine the Present Value of Defined Benefit Obligations and the related Current Service Cost and, where applicable, Past Service Cost. It should be noted that valuations do not affect the ultimate cost of the plan, only the timing of when the benefit costs are recognized.
s) Income Tax
Tax expense comprises of current and deferred tax.
(I) Current tax:
Current tax is the amount of income taxes payable in respect of taxable profit for a period in accordance with Income Tax Act, 1961. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in the tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulations are subject to interpretation and establishes provisions where appropriate.
Previous Year the Company opts to pay lessor tax under Section 115BAA of the Income Tax Act 1956, resulting to which the standing credit of MAT (Minimum alternate Tax) available in the financial statement are lapsed, and the same is adjusted with retained earnings in preparation of the financial statement.
(II) Deferred tax:
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized using the balance sheet approach for all temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realized.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date and are expected to apply to taxable income in the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.
Deferred tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, the carry forward of unused tax credits and any unused tax losses. Deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable hat taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, and the carry forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilized.
Unrecognized deferred tax assets are re-assessed at each reporting date and are recognised to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profits will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered. Current and deferred tax is recognised in profit or loss, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in Other Comprehensive Income or directly in equity. In this case, the tax is also recognized in Other Comprehensive Income or directly in equity, respectively.
t) Earnings per share
Earnings per share (EPS) are calculated by dividing the net profit or loss (excluding other comprehensive income) forthe period attributable to Equity Shareholders by the weighted average number of Equity shares outstanding during the period. Earnings considered in ascertaining the EPS is the net profit forthe period. Diluted EPS is determined by dividing the profit / (loss) after tax attributable to equity shareholders for the period by weighted average number of equity shares and potential equity shares outstanding during the year, except where the results are anti-dilutive.
u) Leases
(I) 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 profit or 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 expected inflationary cost increases for the lessor.
The Company, as a lessee, recognises a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for its leasing arrangements, if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset.
At the commencement date, the Company shall recognize a right-of-use (ROU) asset and a lease liability. The ROU asset is initially measured at the amount of the lease liability, adjusted for lease prepayments, lease incentives received, initial direct costs, and an estimate of restoration costs. The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of lease payments over the lease term, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease, if readily determinable. If not, the Companyâs incremental borrowing rate should be used. Subsequent measurement of the ROU asset involves depreciation and impairment testing. The lease liability is increased by interest and reduced by lease payments.
(II) Su b-Lessee Accounting
When the Company sub-leases a part of a building, it shall assess whether the sub-lease is a finance lease or an operating lease. A finance lease is one where the sub-lease transfers substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of the underlying asset. Otherwise, it is an operating lease. For finance subleases, the Company derecognizes the ROU asset relating to the underlying asset that it transfers to the sub-lessee and recognizes a lease receivable at an amount equal to the net investment in the sub-lease. For operating sub-leases, the Company continues to recognize the leased asset in its balance sheet and recognizes lease income on a straight-line basis or another systematic basis.
Income from sub-leases should be recognized in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term unless another systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern in which benefit derived from the use of the underlying asset is diminished. Expenses incurred underthe head lease (such as depreciation of the ROU asset and interest on the lease liability) are recognized separately from income from sub-leases. (II) As a lessor
Lease income from operating leases where the Company is a lessor is recognised as income on a straightline basis over the lease term unless the receipts are structured to increase in line with expected general inflation to compensate forthe expected inflationary cost increases. The corresponding rent receivables, net of interest income, are included in other financial assets. Each lease receipt is allocated between the asset and interest income.
The interest income is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss over the lease period so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the asset for each period.
