Accounting Policies of Mercury Laboratories Ltd. Company

Mar 31, 2025

1. General Information of the Company:

Mercury Pharmaceutical Industry, a registered partnership firm, was established in the year 1962. Subsequently it was converted into Private Limited Company registered under companies act 1956, in the year 1982. Later it was converted into Limited Company in the year 1992. The company has obtained ISO 9001:2008 registrations.

The company is engaged into the manufacturing and export of wide range of Pharmaceutical items. The products of the company are in the segment of gynae and pediatrics. The financial statements of the company for the year ended 31^st March 2025 were authorized for issue in accordance with a resolution of the Board of directors on 14^thMay, 2025.

2. Basis of Preparation:

a. Statement of Compliance

These financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis following the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with the Generally accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) in India (Indian Accounting standards referred to as âIndASâ) as specified under the section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 read with Rule 3 of Companies (Indian Accounting Standard) Rules, 2015 and relevant amendments rules issued thereafter.

b. Basis of Measurement

The financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost convention, except for certain financial assets and financial liabilities that are measured at fair value as required under relevant Ind AS at the end of each reporting period as set out in the accounting policies below.

These Financial Statements are presented in Indian Rupees (INR) which is the Companyâs functional currency and all amounts are rounded off to the nearest lakhs (upto two decimals) except when otherwise stated.

c. Significant accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions

The preparation of the companyâs financial statements requires management to make judgements, Estimates and assumptions that affect application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities, 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.

Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Estimates are based on historical experience and other factors, including futuristic information, that may have a financial impact on the Company. However, these may change due to market changes or circumstances arising that are beyond the control of the company. Any change in these estimates and assumptions will generally be reflected in the financial statements of the period in which such changes arise or prospectively unless they are required to be treated retrospectively under the relevant Ind-AS.

d. Critical accounting estimates and assumptions

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.

i. Taxes

The tax expense for the year under report includes provision for current tax as well as provision for deferred Tax.

Provision for Current tax is made, based on tax estimated to be payable as computed under the various provisions of the Income Tax Act, 1961.

Significant management judgement is required to determine the amount of deferred tax assets that can be recognized based upon the likely timing and the level of future taxable profits together with future tax planning strategies.

ii. Employee Benefit Plans

The cost of the defined benefit gratuity plan, other post-employment benefits and the present value of the gratuity obligation are determined using actuarial valuations. An actuarial valuation involves making various assumptions that may differ from actual developments in the future. These include the determination of the discount rate; future salary increases and mortality rates. Due to the complexities involved in the valuation and its long-term nature, a defined benefit obligation is highly sensitive to changes in these assumptions. All assumptions are reviewed at each reporting date.

iii. Contingencies

Contingent liabilities may arise from the ordinary course of business in relation to claims against the Company, including legal, contractor and other claims. By their nature, contingencies will be resolved only when one or more uncertain future events occur or fail to occur. The assessment of the existence, and potential quantum, of contingencies inherently involves the exercise of significant judgement and the use of estimates regarding the outcome of future events.

iv. Property, Plantand Equipment

Useful lives and residual values are determined by the management at the time the asset is acquired and reviewed at each financial year end. The lives are based on historical experience with similar assets as well as anticipation of future events, which may impact their life, such as changes in technical or commercial obsolescence arising from changes or improvements in production or from a change in market demand of the product or service output of the asset.

e. Current versus non-current classification

The Company presents assets and liabilities in the balance sheet based on current / non- current classification as per the Companyâs normal operating cycle. The operating cycle is the time between the acquisition of assets and their realisation in cash and cash equivalents. Based on the nature of products, the Company has identified twelve months as its operating cycle.

An asset is treated as current when it is:

? Expected to be realised or intended to be sold or consumed in normal operating cycle

? Held primarily for the purpose of trading

? Expected to be realised within twelve months afterthe reporting period, or

? Cash or cash equivalent unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months afterthe reporting period

All other assets are classified as non-current.

Aliability is current when:

? It is expected to be settled in normal operating cycle

? It is held primarily for the purpose of trading

? It is due to be settled within twelve months afterthe 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.

f. Application of New IndAS and List of Standards issue but not made effective

Ministry of Corporate Affairs (âMCAâ) notifies new standards or amendments to the existing standards under Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules as issued from time to time. For the year ended 31^st March, 2025, MCA has notified Ind AS - 117 Insurance Contracts and amendments to Ind AS 116 - Leases, relating to sale and leaseback transactions, applicable to the Company w.e.f. April 1,2024. The Company has reviewed the new pronouncements and based on its evaluation has determined that it does not have any significant impact in its financial statements.

3. SignificantAccounting Policies:

3.1 Property, Plant & Equipments

Recognition and initial measurement

Property, Plant & Equipment are initially recognized at their cost of acquisition.

The cost of acquisition includes freight, installation cost, duties & taxes (other than those subsequently recoverable from taxing authorities such as the Goods and Services Tax for which Input Tax Credit is availed by the Company) including borrowing costs for qualifying assets, if capitalization criteria are met, and other incidental expenses, identifiable with the asset, incurred during the installation / construction stage in order to bring the assets to their working condition for intended use. Any trade discount and rebates are deducted in arriving at the purchase price.

Cost incurred subsequent to putting an item of PPE into operation such as repair and maintenance costs are usually recognized in statement of profit or loss as incurred. Subsequent costs are included in the asset''s carrying amount or recognized as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Company.

Subsequent measurement (depreciation and useful lives)

Property, Plant and Equipment are subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, if any. Freehold Land, if any, is not depreciated.

Depreciation is recognized so as to write-off the cost of assets less their residual values over their useful lives. Depreciation on property, plant and equipment has been provided using straight line method using rates determined based on management''s assessment of useful economic lives of the asset.

Following are the estimated useful lives of various category of assets used which are aligned with useful lives defined in schedule II of Companies Act, 2013:

Building 30 Years

Plant & Machinery / ETP Plant 15 Years

Air Condition 15 Years

Air Chiller Plant 15 Years

Laboratory Instruments 10 Years

Furniture & Fixture 10 Years

Computers 3 Years

Electrical Installation 10 Years

Vehicles 8 Years

Office Equipment 5 Years

Solar Panel 15 Years

The residual values, useful lives and methods of depreciation of property, plant and equipment are reviewed at each financial year end and adjusted prospectively, if appropriate.

Derecognition

An item of property, plant and equipment and any significant part initially recognized is de- recognized 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 recognized in the statement of profit and loss, when the asset is de-recognized.

3.2 Capital Work-in-Progress (CWIP)

Costs incurred for PPE not ready for use or in the course of construction of being ready for intended use as at the reporting date are disclosed as capital work-in progress. At the point when an item is started to be operated for its intended use, the accumulated costs are transferred to the appropriate category of PPE and depreciation is commenced.

3.3 Investment property

Property that is held for long term rental yield or for capital appreciation or both, and that is not occupied by the Company, is classified as Investment property. Investment properties measured initially at cost including related transitions cost and where applicable borrowing cost. Subsequent to initial recognition, Investment Properties are measured in accordance with Ind AS 16. Subsequent costs are included in the asset''s carrying amount or recognized as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Company. All other repairs and maintenance costs are expensed when incurred.

An Investment Property is de-recognized upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss arising on de-recognition of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is recognized in the statement of profit and loss, upon de-recognition.

3.4 Intangible assets Recognition and Measurement

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

Intangible assets acquired by the company that have finite useful lives are measured at cost.

Expenditure on research activities is recognized in the statement of profit and loss as incurred. Development expenditure is capitalized only if the expenditure can be measured reliably, the product or process is technically and commercially feasible, future economic benefits are probable and the company intends to and has sufficient resources to complete development and to use or sell the asset.

Subsequent expenditure is capitalized only when it increases the future economic benefits embodied in the specific asset to which it relates.

Subsequent Measurement

Intangible assets are stated at their cost less accumulated amortization and any accumulated impairment losses. Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are not amortized, but are tested for impairment annually, eitherindividually oratthe cash-generating unit level.

Amortisation

Amortisation is calculated over the cost of the asset, or other amount substituted for cost, less its residual value. Amortisation is recognised in statement of profit and loss on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of intangible assets from the date that they are available for use, since this most closely reflects the expected pattern of consumption of the future economic benefits embodied in the asset.

The estimated useful lives for current and comparative periods are as follows:

Software - 3 years

3.5 Leases

The Company determines whether an arrangement contains a lease at the inception of the Contract by assessing whether the fulfilment of a transaction is dependent on the use of a specific asset and whether the transaction conveys the right to control the use of that asset to the Company in return for payment

To assess whether a contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset, the Company assessees whether:

? the Contract involves use of an identified asset

? the Company has substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the asset through the period of the lease and

? the Company has the right to direct the use of the asset.

The Company as lessee

The Company recognizes right of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term at the lease commencement date. The cost of the right-of-use asset measured at inception comprises of the amount of initial measurement of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or before the commencement date plus any indirect costs less any lease incentives.

The right-of-use assets are subsequently measured at cost less any accumulated depreciation, accumulated impairment losses, if any and adjusted for any re- measurement of the lease liability. The right-of-use assets are depreciated using the straight-line method from the commencement date over the shorter of lease term or useful life of right-of-use asset.

Right-of-use assets are tested for impairment whenever there is any indication that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. Impairment loss, if any, is recognized in the statement of profit and loss.

The lease liability is subsequently remeasured by increasing the carrying amount to reflect interest on the lease liability, reducing the carrying amount to reflect the lease payments made and remeasuring the carrying amount to reflect any reassessment or lease modifications.

The Company recognizes the amount of the re-measurement of lease liability as an adjustment to the right-of-use asset. Where the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset is reduced to zero and there is a further reduction in the measurement of the lease liability, the Company recognizes any remaining amount of the re-measurement in statement of profit and loss.

Variable lease payments not included in the measurement of the lease liabilities are expensed to the statement of profit and loss in the period in which the events or conditions which trigger those payments occur.

Certain lease arrangements include options to extend or terminate the lease before the end of the lease term. The right-of-use assets and lease liabilities include these options when it is reasonably certain that such options would be exercised.

In a sale and lease back transaction, the Company measures right-of-use asset arising from the leaseback as the proportion of the previous carrying amount of the asset that relates to the right-of-use retained. The gain or loss that the company recognizes in the statement of profit and loss is limited to the proportion of the total gain or loss that relates to the rights transferred to the buyer.

Right of use asst and Lease Liability are presented separately in the Balance Sheet and lease payments are classified as Financing Cash Flows.

The Company follows the above accounting policies where it is a lessee for all leases except where the term is twelve months or less or the leases are of very low value. For these shortterm or low value leases, the Company recognizes the lease payments as on operating expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.

The Company as lessor Operating lease:

Rental income from operating leases is recognised in the statement of profit and loss on a straight- line basis over the term of the relevant lease unless another systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern in which economic benefits from the leased asset is diminished. Initial direct costs incurred in negotiating and arranging an operating lease are added to the carrying value of the leased asset and recognised on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Finance lease:

When assets are leased out under a finance lease, the present value of minimum lease payments is recognised as a receivable. The difference between the gross receivable and the present value of receivable is recognised as unearned finance income. Lease income is recognised over the term of the lease using the net investment method before tax, which reflects a constant periodic rate of return.

3.6 Impairment of non-financial assets

At each reporting date, the Company reviews the carrying amounts of its non-financial assets to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication of impairment exists, then the asset''s recoverable amount is estimated. For impairment testing, assets are grouped together into the smallest group of assets that generates cash inflows from continuing use that are largely independent of the cash inflows of other assets or cash generating units (CGUs).

The recoverable amount of an asset or CGU is the greater of its value in use and its fair value less costs to sell. Value in use is based on the estimated future cash flows, discounted to their present value using a discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset or CGU.An impairment loss is recognised if the carrying amount of an asset or CGU exceeds its estimated recoverable amount. Impairment losses are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. Such a reversal is made 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 amortisation, if no impairment loss had been recognised.

3.7 Provisions, Contingent LiabilitiesAnd ContingentAssets Provisions

Provisions, which required a substantial degree of estimation, are recognized when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. The expense relating to a provision is recognized in the Statement of Profit & Loss

When the Company expects some or all of a provision to be reimbursed, the reimbursement is recognized as a separate asset, but only when the reimbursement is virtually certain. The expense relating to a provision is presented in the statement of profit and loss net of any reimbursement.

If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre-tax rate that reflects, when appropriate, the risks specific to the liability. When discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognized as a finance cost in respective expense.

Contingent Liabilities and ContingentAssets

Contingent liabilities are not recognized but are disclosed in the notes. Contingent liabilities are disclosed for possible obligations which will be confirmed only by the future event not wholly within the control of the Company or present obligations arising from the past events where it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation or a reliable estimate of the amount of the obligation cannot be made.

ContingentAssets are neither recognized nor disclosed in the financial statements.

3.8 Income Tax

Income Tax Expenses comprise the sum of CurrentTax (including past year tax difference) and Deferred Tax. Current Tax:

Provision for current tax is made as per the provisions of the Income TaxAct, 1961.

Current income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted or substantively enacted, at the reporting date.

Current income tax relating to items recognised outside profit or loss is recognised outside profit or loss (either in other comprehensive income or in equity). Current tax items are recognised in correlation to the underlying transaction either in OCI or directly in equity. 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.

Deferred tax:

Deferred tax is provided using the liability method on temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes at the reporting date.

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

Deferred tax relating to items recognised outside profit or loss is recognised outside profit or loss (either in other comprehensive income or in equity). Deferred tax items are recognised in correlation to the underlying transaction either in OCI or directly in equity.

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

Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset if a legally enforceable right exists to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and the deferred taxes relate to the same taxation authority.

3.9 Employee Benefits Short-term Employee Benefits

Employee benefit liabilities such as salaries, wages and bonus, etc. that are expected to be settled wholly within twelve 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 an undiscounted amount expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled.

Post-employment benefit plans

Defined Contribution Plans:

State governed Provident Fund Scheme and Employees State Insurance Scheme are defined contribution plans since eligible employees are entitled to get benefits and both the Company and eligible employees make monthly contributions towards the same. The contribution paid / payable by the Company under the schemes is recognized during the period in which the employees render the related services.

Defined Benefit Plans:

A defined benefit plan is a post-employment benefit plan other than a defined contribution plan. The Company''s gratuity scheme is a defined benefit plan. The Company recognizes the defined benefit liability in Balance sheet. The present value of the obligation under such defined benefit plan and the related current service costand, where applicable past service cost is determined based on an actuarial valuation done using the Projected Unit Credit Method by an independent actuary, 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 obligations are measured at the present value of the estimated future cash flows.

Re-measurements, comprising actuarial gains and losses, the effect of the changes to the asset ceiling (if applicable) is reflected immediately in Other Comprehensive Income in the Statement of Profit and loss. All other expenses related to defined benefit plans are recognized in Statement of Profit and Loss as employee benefit expenses. Re-measurements recognized in Other Comprehensive Income will not be reclassified to Statement of Profit and Loss hence it is treated as part of retained earnings in the Statement of Changes in Equity.

Other Long Term Employee Benefits:

Other Long Term Employee Benefits such as long term compensated absences are measured at present value of estimated future cash flows to be made by the company and is measured, recognized and presented in the same manneras the defined benefit gratuity plant narrated above.

3.10 Fair Value Measurement

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value measurement is based on the presumption that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability takes place either:

? In the principal market for the asset or liability, or

? In the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the asset or Liability

? The principal or the most advantageous market must be accessible to/ by the Company.

Fairvalue hierarchy

All financial instruments for which fair value is recognised or disclosed are categorised within the fair value hierarchy, described as follows, based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fairvalue measurement as a whole;

Level 1: quoted (unadjusted) prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2: valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that has a significant effect on the fair value measurement are observable, either directly or indirectly.

Level 3: valuation techniques for which the lowest level input which has a significant effect on the fair value measurement is not based on observable market data.

For assets and liabilities that are recognised in the financial statements on a recurring basis, the Company determines whether transfers have occurred between levels in the hierarchy by reassessing categorisation (based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole) at the end of each reporting period.

For the purpose of fair value disclosures, the Company has determined classes of assets and liabilities on the basis of the nature, characteristics and risks of the asset or liability and the level of the fair value hierarchy as explained Above.

3.11 Financial Instruments

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

Financial assets

Initial recognition and measurement:

All 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.

Subsequent measurement:

For purposes of subsequent measurement, financial assets are measured in their entirety at either amortised cost of fair value depending on classification of the FinancialAsset:

? Financial Assets atAmortised Cost

A Financial Assets is measured at the amortised cost if both the following conditions are met:

? The asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets for collecting contractual cash flows, and

? Contractual terms of the asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest (SPPI) on the principal amount outstanding.

After initial measurement, such financial assets are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate (EIR) method. Amortised 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 and losses arising from impairment are recognized in the Statement of Profit & Loss. The amortized cost of the financial asset is also adjusted for loss allowance, if any

? FinancialAssets at Fair Value through Other Comprehensive Income (FVTOCI)

A Financial Asset is measured at fair value through other comprehensive income if both the following conditions are met:

? The asset is held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets, and

? Contractual terms of the asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest (SPPI) on the principal amount outstanding.

After initial measurement, such financial assets are subsequently measured at fair value and changes therein are recognized directly in other comprehensive income, net of applicable taxes.

? FinancialAssets at Fair Value through Profitand Loss(FVTPL)

FVTPLis a residual category for FinancialAssets.

Any FinancialAsset, which does not meet the criteria for categorization as at Amortized Cost or as FVTOCI, is classified as at FVTPL.

In addition, the company may elect to designate a Financial Asset, which otherwise meets amortized cost or FVTOCI criteria, as at FVTPL. However, such election is allowed only if doing so reduces or eliminates a measurement or recognition inconsistency (referred to as ''accounting mismatch'').

Financial Assets included within the FVTPL category are measured at fair value with all changes recognized in the Statement of Profit & Loss.

Derecognition:

The Company derecognises a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire, or it transfers the rights to receive the contractual cash flows in a transaction in which substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are transferred or in which the Company neither transfers nor retains substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership and it does not retain control of the financial asset. Any gain or loss on derecognition is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

Impairment of financial assets:

In accordance with IndAS 109, the company applies expected credit loss (ECL) model for measurement and recognition of impairment loss on the following financial assets and credit risk exposure:

? Financial assets that are debt instruments, and are measured at amortised cost e. g. Loans and trade Receivables.

? The company follows ''simplified approach'' for recognition of impairment loss allowance on Trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component.

The application of simplified approach does not require the Company to track changes in credit risk. Rather, it recognises impairment loss allowance based on lifetime ECLs at each reporting date, right from its initial recognition.

Financial liabilities

Initial recognition and measurement:

All financial liabilities are initially recognised when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

All financial liabilities are initially measured atfairvalue deducted by, in the case offinancial liabilities not recorded at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs that are attributable to the liability.

Subsequent measurement:

Financial liabilities are classified as measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. The Company''s financial liabilities include trade payables, borrowings and other financial liabilities.

Under the effective interest method, the future cash payments are exactly discounted to the initial recognition value using the effective interest rate. The cumulative amortization using the effective interest method of the difference between the initial recognition amount and the maturity amount is added to the initial recognition value (net of principal repayments, if any) of the financial liability over the relevant period of the financial liability to arrive at the amortized cost at each reporting date. The corresponding effect of the amortization under effective interest method is recognized as expense over the relevant period of the financial liability in the Statement of Profit and 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 between the carrying amount of the financial liability derecognized and the consideration paid is recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

Offsetting offinancial instruments:

Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount presented in the Balance Sheet when, and only when, the Company currently has a legally enforceable right to set off the amounts and it intends either to settle them on a net basis or to realise the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.

3.12 Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalent in the balance sheet comprise cash at banks and on hand and short- term deposits with an original maturity of three months or less, which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.

3.13 Investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures

Investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures are carried at cost / deemed cost applied on transition to Ind AS, less accumulated impairment losses, if any. Where an indication of impairment exists, the carrying amount of investment is assessed and an impairment provision is recognised, if required immediately to its recoverable amount. On disposal of such investments, difference between the net disposal proceeds and carrying amount is recognised in the statement of profit and loss.

3.14 Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Costs comprise direct materials and, where applicable, direct labour costs and those overheads that have been incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition other than duties and taxes which are subsequently recoverable from taxing authorities in form of Input Tax Creidt or otherwise. Net realisable value is the price at which the inventories can be realised in the normal course of business, and in in case of Semi Finished and Finished Goods, after allowing for the cost of conversion from their existing state, and for the cost of marketing, selling and distribution.

Raw Materials are valued at Cost ascertained on a weighted average basis or Net Realised Value whichever it lower. Finished goods produced by the company are valued at lower of cost or net realizable value. Semi-Finished goods have been valued at lower of Raw Material cost, Direct Labour and appropriate proportion of variable and fixed overheads, latter being allocated based on normal operating capacity or net realizable value.

Stock of goods purchased for resale purposes are valued at their acquisition cost inclusive of all duties and taxes or Net Realizable Value whichever is lower.

Provisions and / or write-offs are made to cover slow-moving and obsolete items based on historical experience of utilisation on a product category basis and market conditions.

3.15 Foreign Currency

Transactions in foreign currencies are recorded at the exchange rate prevailing on the date of transaction. Foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities are re-measured into the functional currency at the exchange rate prevailing on the balance sheet date.

Exchange differences arising on settlement of transactions and translation of monetary items are recognized in the statement of Profit or Loss except to the extent, exchange differences which are regarded as an adjustment to interest costs on foreign currency borrowings, are capitalized as part of borrowing costs.

3.16 Forward Contracts

The Company is exposed to foreign currency fluctuations on foreign currency assets and forecasted cash flows denominated in foreign currency. The Company tries to limit the effects of foreign exchange rate fluctuations by following risk management policies including use of derivatives. For this the Company enters into forward exchange contracts, where the counter-party is a Bank. Theses forward contracts are not used for trading or speculation purpose.

In case, of forward contracts the gain or loss arising on exercise of option or settlement or cancellation are recognized in the Statement of Profit & Loss for the period.

The forwards contracts outstanding as at the end of the reporting period are recognized / restated at forward contract rates for the end date of the contract for a period equivalent to the balance maturity period of the contract as at the end of the reporting period and corresponding exchange gain or loss arising on the same is recognized in the Statement of Profit & Loss for the period.

3.17 Revenue Recognition

Revenue from Sale of Products is recognised when control of the products or significant risks and rewards of ownership are transferred to the buyer for a consideration. This usually occurs when the products have been shipped or delivered to the specific location as the case may be, the risks of loss has been transferred, and either the customer has accepted the products in accordance with the sales contract, or the Company has objective evidence that all criteria for acceptance have been satisfied. Sale of products include related ancillary services, if any.

Domestic Sales are recognized at the transaction price of the consideration receivable net of Sales Returns and excluding the Goods and Service Tax (GST) element as well as net of expected volume discounts. Export Sales are recognized at their CIF Value charged to the Customers in Invoices.

Revenue is only recognised to the extent that it is highly probable that a significant reversal will not occur. Aliability is recognised for expected volume discounts payable to customers in relation to sales made until the end of the reporting period.Any obligation to provide a refund is recognised as a provision.

The Company considers whether there are other promises in the contract that are separate performance obligations to which a portion of the transaction price needs to be allocated. In determining the transaction price, the Company considers the effects of variable consideration, the existence of significant financing component and consideration payable to the customer like return and trade discounts.

Sale of Scrap

Revenue from sale of scrap, if any, is recognized as and when scrap is sold.

Other income

Interest Income is recognized on a time proportionate basis including interest accrued based on the amount outstanding and rate applicable and shown under âOther Incomeâ. Interest income from Financial Assets is recognized when it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Company and the amount of income can be measured reliably.

Export Benefits

Duty free imports of raw materials under Advance License for imports as per the Import and Export Policy are matched with the exports made against the said licenses and the net benefit/obligation is accounted by making suitable adjustments in raw material consumption. The benefits accrued under the duty drawback scheme and Merchandise Export from India Scheme (MEIS)as per the Import and Export Policy in respect of exports under the said scheme are recognized when there is a reasonable assurance that the benefit will be received and the company will comply with all attached conditions.

Software - 3 years

3.5 Leases

To assess whether a contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset, the Company assessees whether:

? the Contract involves use of an identified asset

? the Company has substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the asset through the period of the lease and

Investment properties measured initially at cost including related transitions cost and where applicable borrowing cost. Subsequent expenditure is capitalised to the assets carrying amount only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the expenditure will flow to the entity and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other repairs and maintenance costs are expensed when incurred. When part of an investment property is incurred the carrying amount of replaced part is derecognised.

3.3 Intangible assets Recognition and Measurement

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

Expenditure on research activities is recognised in the statement of profit and loss as incurred.Development expenditure is capitalised only if the expenditure can be measured reliably, the product oprocess is technically and commercially feasible, future economic benefits are probable and the company intends to and has sufficient resources to complete development and to use or sell the asset.

Subsequent expenditure is capitalised only when it increases the future economic benefits embodied in the specific asset to which it relates.

The estimated useful lives for current and comparative periods are as follows:

Software 3 years

Amortisation

3.4 Leases

The Company determines whether an arrangement contains a lease by assessing whether the fulfilment of a transaction is dependent on the use of a specific asset and whether the transaction conveys the right to control the use of that asset to the Company in return for payment.

The Company as lessee

The Company accounts for each lease component within the contract as a lease separately from non- lease components of the contract and allocates the consideration in the contract to each lease component on the basis of the relative stand-alone price of the lease component and the aggregate stand-alone price of the non-lease components. The Company recognises right- of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term at the lease commencement date. The cost of the right-of-use asset measured at inception comprises of the amount of initial measurement of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or before the commencement date.

Lease liability is measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at the commencement date of the lease. The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease, if that rate can be readily determined. If that rate cannot be readily determined, the Company uses incremental borrowing rate. The lease liability is subsequently remeasured by increasing the carrying amount to reflect interest on the lease liability, reducing the carrying amount to reflect the lease payments made and remeasuring the carrying amount to reflect any reassessment or lease modifications. The Company recognizes the amount of the re-measurement of lease liability as an adjustment to the right-of-use asset. Where the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset is reduced to zero and there is a further reduction in the measurement of the lease liability, the Company recognizes any remaining amount of the remeasurement in statement of profit and loss.

In a sale and lease back transaction, the Company measures right-of-use asset arising from the leaseback as the proportion of the previous carrying amount of the asset that relates to the right-of-use retained. The gain or loss that the company recognises in the statement of profit and loss is limited to the proportion of the total gain or loss that relates to the rights transferred to the buyer.

The Company as lessor

Operating lease:

Rental income from operating leases is recognized in the statement of profit and loss on a straight- line basis over the term of the relevant lease unless another systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern in which economic benefits from the leased asset is diminished.

Finance lease

3.5 Impairment of non-financial assets

The recoverable amount of an asset or CGU is the greater of its value in use and its fair value less costs to sell. Value in use is based on the estimated future cash flows, discounted to their present value using a discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset or CGU. An impairment loss is recognised if the carrying amount of an asset or CGU exceeds its estimated recoverable amount. Impairment losses are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
