1B. Material Accounting Policies

i. 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 Schedule III Division II of the Act. Based on the nature of
products/services and the time between the acquisition of assets for processing/rendering of services
and their realization in cash and cash equivalents, the Company has ascertained the operating cycle as
twelve months for the purpose of current or non-current classification of assets and liabilities other than
those relating to long-term contracts.

In the case of long-term contracts, the time between the acquisition of assets for processing and the
realization of the entire proceeds under the contracts in cash or cash equivalent exceeds one year.
Accordingly, for the classification of assets and liabilities related to such contracts as current, the
duration of each contract is considered as its operating cycle.

ii. Property, plant and equipment

a. Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost of acquisition/construction less accumulated
depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. The gross carrying amount of all property,
plant and equipment is measured using the cost model.

b. Cost of an item of property, plant and equipment includes purchase price including non - refundable
taxes and duties, borrowing cost directly attributable to the qualifying asset, any costs directly
attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for its intended use and
the present value of the expected cost for the dismantling/decommissioning of the asset.

c. Parts (major components) of an item of property, plant and equipment having different useful lives
are accounted as separate items of property, plant and equipment.

d. Subsequent expenditures related to an item of property, plant and equipment are added to its
book value only if they increase the future benefits from the existing asset beyond its previously
assessed standard of performance.

e. Property, plant and equipment are eliminated from Standalone Financial Statements either on
disposal or when retired from active use. Assets held for disposal are stated at net realizable
value. Losses arising in the case of retirement of property, plant and equipment and gains or
losses arising from the disposal of property, plant and equipment are recognized in the statement
of profit and loss in the year of occurrence.

f. Capital work-in-progress comprises of cost incurred on property, plant and equipment under
construction / acquisition that are not yet ready for their intended use at the Balance Sheet Date.

g. Borrowing costs attributable to the acquisition of a qualifying asset are capitalized as part of the
cost of the asset till the asset is ready for its intended use and borrowing costs are being incurred.
A qualifying asset is an asset that necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for
its intended use.

h. Depreciation

Depreciation on property, plant and equipment (other than freehold land and capital work in
progress) is provided on a pro-rata basis on the straight-line method based on the estimated
useful life prescribed under Schedule II to the Act.

Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed periodically, including at the
end of each financial year and adjusted prospectively.

In case of assets purchased or derecognized during the year, depreciation on such assets is
calculated on a pro-rata basis from the date of such addition or as the case may be, up to the date
on which such asset has been derecognized.

iii. Assets held for sale/distribution

Non-current assets are held for disposal if available for immediate disposal in their present condition, a
disposal is highly probable and expected to be completed within one year from the date of classification.
Such assets are measured at the lower of carrying value and fair value less the cost of disposal.

iv. Impairment of Non-Financial assets

The Carrying amounts of assets are reviewed at each balance sheet date for any indication of impairment
based on internal/external factors. Non-financial assets are subject to impairment tests whenever events
or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment
loss is recognized wherever the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount. The
recoverable amount is the higher of a) fair value of assets less the cost of disposal and b) its value in
use. Value in use is the present value of future cash flows expected to derive from an asset. Where it is

not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the impairment test is carried out
on the smallest Company of assets to which it belongs for which there are separately identifiable cash
flows and its cash-generating units (''CGUs'').

Based on the assessment done at each balance sheet date, recognized impairment loss is further
provided or reversed depending on changes in circumstances. After recognition of impairment loss or
reversal of impairment loss as applicable, the depreciation charge for the asset is adjusted in future
periods to allocate the asset''s revised carrying amount, less its residual value (if any), on a systematic
basis over its remaining useful life. If the conditions leading to recognition of impairment losses no
longer exist or have decreased, impairment losses recognized are reversed to the extent it does not
exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined after considering depreciation had no
impairment loss been recognized in earlier years.

v. Investment Property

Investment property comprises buildings that are held for long-term rental yields and/or for capital
appreciation. Investment properties are initially recognized at cost. Subsequently, investment property is
carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses.

Depreciation on the building is provided over its useful life as specified in Schedule II of the Act. The
residual values, useful life and depreciation method of investment property is reviewed and adjusted on
a prospective basis as appropriate, at each balance sheet date. The effects of any revision are included
in the statement of profit and loss when the changes arise.

Though the Company measures investment property using cost-based measurement, the fair value of
investment property is disclosed in the notes. Fair values are determined based on estimates.

Investment properties are derecognized when either they have been disposed of or when the investment
property is permanently withdrawn from use and no future economic benefit is expected from its disposal.

The difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset is recognized in
the statement of profit and loss in the period of de-recognition.

vi. Financial instruments

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

(a) Financial Assets:

I. Initial measurement:

All financial assets are recognized 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. Financial assets are classified, at initial recognition, as
subsequently measured at amortized cost, fair value through other comprehensive income
(OCI), and fair value through profit or loss.

The classification of financial assets at initial recognition depends on the financial asset''s
contractual cash flow characteristics and the Company''s business model for managing
them. The business model for managing financial assets refers to how it manages its
financial assets in order to generate cash flows. The business model determines whether
cash flows will result from collecting contractual cash flows, selling financial assets, or

II. Subsequent measurement:

For purposes of subsequent measurement, financial assets are classified in below
categories:

a. Debt instruments at amortized cost

A ''debt instrument'' is measured at the amortized cost if both the following conditions are
met:

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

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

After initial measurement, such financial assets are subsequently measured at amortized
cost using the effective interest rate (EIR) method. Amortized cost is calculated by
considering any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral
part of the EIR. The EIR amortization is included in finance income in the statement of profit
or loss. The losses arising from impairment if any, are recognized in the statement of profit
or loss.

b. Debt instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI).

A ''debt instrument” is classified as at the FVTOCI if both of the following criteria are met:

a) The objective of the business model is achieved both by collecting contractual cash
flows and selling the financial assets and

b) The asset''s contractual cash flows represent solely payments of principal and
interest.

debt instruments included within the FVTOCI category are measured initially as well as
at each reporting date at fair value. Fair value movements are recognized in the other
comprehensive income (OCI). However, the Company does not have any debt instrument
which meet the criteria for measuring the debt instrument at FVTOCI.

c. Debt Instruments at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL)

Any debt instrument, which does not meet the criteria for categorization as at amortized
cost or as FVTOCI, are classified as at FVTPL.

In addition, the Company may elect to designate a debt instrument, which otherwise meets
amortized cost or FVTOCI criteria, at FVTPL. However, such an election is allowed only if
doing so reduces or eliminates a measurement or recognition inconsistency (referred to
as an ''Accounting Mismatch''). The Company makes such elections on an instrument-by¬
instrument basis and routed through profit and loss.

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

d. Investment in Associate and Subsidiary Company

Investment in the associate and Subsidiary company is measured at cost less impairment
loss, if any. Where an indication of impairment exists, the carrying amount of the investment
is assessed and written down to its recoverable amount. On disposal of investments in
subsidiaries and Associates, the difference between net disposal proceeds and the carrying
amounts are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

e. Equity Investment

All equity investments, except investments in an associate, are measured at FVTPL. The
Company may make an irrevocable election on initial recognition to present in OCI any
subsequent changes in the fair value. The Company makes such election on an instrument-
by-instrument basis.

III. Derecognition

A financial asset (or where applicable, a part of a financial asset or part of a Company of similar
financial assets) is primarily derecognized (i.e. removed from the Company''s Standalone Financial
Statements) when:

a) The rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired or

b) The Company has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from the Assets or has
assumed an obligation to pay the received cash flows in full without material delay to a
third party under a ''pass-through'' arrangement and either (a) the Company has transferred
substantially all the risks and rewards of the assets or (b) the Company has neither
transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, but has
transferred control of the asset.

When the Company has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from an asset or has entered
into a pass-through arrangement, it evaluates if and to what extent it has retained the risks and
rewards of ownership. When it has neither transferred nor retained substantially all of the risks and
rewards of the Assets nor transferred control of the assets, the Company continues to recognize
the transferred Assets to the extent of the Company''s continuing involvement. In that case, the
Company also recognizes an associated liability. The transferred Assets and the associated
liability are measured on a basis that reflects the rights and obligations that the Company has
retained.

Continuing involvement that takes the form of a guarantee over the transferred assets is
measured at the lower of the original carrying amount of the assets and the maximum amount of
consideration that the Company could be required to repay.

IV. Impairment of Financial Assets:

Expected credit losses are recognized for all financial assets subsequent to initial recognition
other than financial assets in the FVTPL category.

For financial assets other than trade receivables, as per Ind AS 109, the Company recognizes
12-month expected credit losses for all originated or acquired financial assets if at the reporting
date, the credit risk of the financial asset has not increased significantly since its initial recognition.
The expected credit losses are measured as lifetime expected credit losses if the credit risk on a
financial asset increases significantly since its initial recognition. The Company''s trade receivables
do not contain significant financing components and loss allowance on trade receivables is
measured at an amount equal to lifetime expected losses i.e. expected cash shortfall.

The impairment losses and reversals are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

(b) Financial Liabilities:

I. Initial recognition and measurement:

The Company recognizes a financial liability in it''s Balance Sheet when it becomes a party to the
contractual provisions of the instrument. All financial liabilities are recognized initially at fair value
minus, in the case of financial liabilities not recorded at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL),
transaction costs that are attributable to the acquisition of the financial liability.

II. Subsequent measurement

a. Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss

Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss include financial liabilities held for
trading and financial liabilities designated upon initial recognition as at fair value through
profit or loss.

Financial liabilities are classified as held for trading if they are incurred for the purpose of
repurchasing in the near term. Separated embedded derivatives are also classified as held
for trading unless they are designated as effective hedging instruments.

Gains or losses on liabilities held for trading are recognized in the statement of profit and
loss.

Financial liabilities designated upon initial recognition at fair value through profit or loss are
designated as such at the initial date of recognition, and only if the criteria in Ind AS 109
are satisfied. For liabilities designated as FVTPL, fair value gains/ losses attributable to
changes in own credit risk are recognized in OCI. These gains/ losses are not subsequently
transferred to standalone statement of profit and loss. However, the Company may transfer
the cumulative gain or loss within equity. All other changes in fair value of such liability
are recognized in the statement of profit and loss. The Company has not designated any
financial liability as at fair value through profit or loss.

b. Financial liabilities at amortized cost

After initial recognition, interest-bearing loans and borrowings are subsequently measured
at amortized cost using the Effective Interest Rate (EIR) method. Gains and losses are
recognized in statement of profit and loss when the liabilities are derecognized as well as
through the EIR amortization process.

Amortized cost is calculated by considering any discount or premium on acquisition and
fees or costs that are an integral part of the EIR. The EIR amortization is included as finance
costs in the statement of profit and loss.

III. Derecognition:

A financial liability is derecognized when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled
or expires. When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on

substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an
exchange or modification is treated as the derecognition of the original liability and the recognition
of a new liability. The difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognized in the Standalone
Statement of Profit and Loss.

(c) Compound Financial Instruments

The liability component of a compound financial instrument is recognized initially at fair value of a similar
liability that does not have an equity component. The equity component is recognized initially as the
difference between the fair value of the compound financial instrument as a whole and the fair value of
the liability component. Any directly attributable transaction costs are allocated to the liability and the
equity components, if material, in proportion to their initial carrying amounts.

Subsequent to the initial recognition, the liability component of a compound financial instrument
is measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method. The equity component of a
compound financial instrument is not re-measured subsequent to initial recognition except on conversion
or expiry.

(d) Offsetting of Financial Instruments

Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the balance sheet if
there is a currently enforceable legal right to offset the recognized amounts and there is an intention to
settle on a net basis, to realize the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.

(e) Re-classification

The Company determines the classification of financial assets and liabilities on initial recognition.

After initial recognition, no re-classification is made for financial assets which are equity instruments
and financial liabilities. For financial assets which are debt instruments, a reclassification is made only if
there is a change in the business model for managing those assets. Changes to the business model are
expected to be infrequent. The management determines the change in the business model as a result of
external or internal changes which are significant to the Company''s operations. A change in the business
model occurs when the Company either begins or ceases to perform an activity that is significant to its
operations.

If the Company reclassifies financial assets, it applies the reclassification prospectively from the
reclassification date which is the first day of the immediately next reporting period following the change
in the business model.

The Company does not restate any previously recognized gains, losses (including impairment gains or
losses) or interest.

vii. Inventories

Inventories (stock in trade) are valued at a lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost is computed on a
weighted average basis. The net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of
business less the estimated costs of completion and estimated costs necessary to make the sale.

viii. Income Taxes

Income tax expense for the year comprises of current tax and deferred tax. It is recognized in the Statement
of Profit and Loss except to an item which is recognized directly in equity or in other comprehensive
income.

(a) Current tax:

Current tax is the expected tax payable/receivable on the taxable income/ loss for the year using
applicable tax rates at the Balance Sheet date and any adjustment to taxes in respect of previous
years. In respect of amounts adjusted outside profit or loss (i.e. in other comprehensive income or
equity), the corresponding tax effect, if any, is also adjusted outside profit or loss.

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

(b) Deferred tax:

Deferred tax is recognized using the balance sheet approach. Deferred tax liabilities are recognized
for all taxable temporary differences, and deferred tax assets are recognized for all deductible
temporary differences, carry forward tax losses and allowances to the extent that it is probable
that future taxable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary differences,
carry forward tax losses and allowances can be utilized.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the
year when the asset is realized 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.

Deferred tax assets are recognized only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit
will be available against which such deferred tax assets can be utilized. In situations where the
Company has unused tax losses and unused tax credits, deferred tax assets are recognized only
if it is probable that they can be utilized against future taxable profits. Deferred tax assets are
reviewed for the appropriateness of their respective carrying amounts at each Balance Sheet date.

At each reporting date, the Company re-assesses unrecognized deferred tax assets. It recognizes
previously unrecognized deferred tax assets to the extent that it has become probable that future
taxable profits allow deferred tax assets to be recovered.

ix. Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, bank balances and any deposits with original maturities
of three months or less (that are readily convertible to known amounts of Cash and cash equivalents and
subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value). However, for the purpose of the Statement of cash
flows, in addition to the above items, any bank overdrafts/cash credits that are an integral part of the
Company''s cash management, are also included as a component of Cash and cash equivalents.

1 B. Material Accounting Policies

i. 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 Schedule III Division II of the Act. Based on the nature of products/services and the time between the acquisition of assets for processing/ rendering of services and their realization in cash and cash equivalents, the Company has ascertained the operating cycle as twelve months for the purpose of current or non-current classification of assets and liabilities other than those relating to long-term contracts.

In the case of long-term contracts, the time between the acquisition of assets for processing and the realization of the entire proceeds under the contracts in cash or cash equivalent exceeds one year. Accordingly, for the classification of assets and liabilities related to such contracts as current, the duration of each contract is considered as its operating cycle.

ii. Property, plant and equipment

a. Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost of acquisition/construction less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. The gross carrying amount of all property, plant and equipment is measured using the cost model.

b. Cost of an item of property, plant and equipment includes purchase price including non -refundable taxes and duties, borrowing cost directly attributable to the qualifying asset, any costs directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for its intended use and the present value of the expected cost for the dismantling/ decommissioning of the asset.

c. Parts (major components) of an item of property, plant and equipment having different useful lives are accounted as separate items of property, plant and equipment.

d. Subsequent expenditures related to an item of property, plant and equipment are added to its book value only if they increase the future benefits from the existing asset beyond its previously assessed standard of performance.

e. Property, plant and equipment are eliminated from Standalone Financial Statements either on disposal or when retired from active use. Assets held for disposal are stated at net realizable value. Losses arising in the case of retirement of property, plant and equipment and gains or losses arising from the disposal of property, plant and equipment are recognized in the statement of profit and loss in the year of occurrence.

f. Capital work-in-progress comprises of cost incurred on property, plant and equipment under construction / acquisition that are not yet ready for their intended use at the Balance Sheet Date.

g. Borrowing costs attributable to the acquisition of a qualifying asset are capitalized as part of the cost of the asset till the asset is ready for its intended use and borrowing costs are being incurred. A qualifying asset is an asset that necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use.

h. Depreciation

Depreciation on property, plant and equipment (other than freehold land and capital work in progress) is provided on a pro-rata basis on the straight-line method based on the estimated useful life prescribed under Schedule II to the Act.

Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed periodically, including at the end of each financial year and adjusted prospectively.

In case of assets purchased or derecognized during the year, depreciation on such assets is calculated on a pro-rata basis from the date of such addition or as the case may be, up to the date on which such asset has been derecognized.

iii. Assets held for sale/distribution

Non-current assets are held for disposal if available for immediate disposal in their present condition, a disposal is highly probable and expected to be completed within one year from the date of classification. Such assets are measured at the lower of carrying value and fair value less the cost of disposal.

iv. Impairment of Non-Financial assets

The Carrying amounts of assets are reviewed at each balance sheet date for any indication of impairment based on internal/external factors. Non-financial assets are subject to impairment tests whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amount may

not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized wherever the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of a) fair value of assets less the cost of disposal and b) its value in use. Value in use is the present value of future cash flows expected to derive from an asset. Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the impairment test is carried out on the smallest Company of assets to which it belongs for which there are separately identifiable cash flows and its cashgenerating units (''CGUs'').

Based on the assessment done at each balance sheet date, recognized impairment loss is further provided or reversed depending on changes in circumstances. After recognition of impairment loss or reversal of impairment loss as applicable, the depreciation charge for the asset is adjusted in future periods to allocate the asset''s revised carrying amount, less its residual value (if any), on a systematic basis over its remaining useful life. If the conditions leading to recognition of impairment losses no longer exist or have decreased, impairment losses recognized are reversed to the extent it does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined after considering depreciation had no impairment loss been recognized in earlier years.

v. Investment Property

Investment property comprises buildings that are held for long-term rental yields and/or for capital appreciation. Investment properties are initially recognized at cost. Subsequently, investment property is carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses.

Depreciation on the building is provided over its useful life as specified in Schedule II of the Act. The residual values, useful life and depreciation method of investment property is reviewed and adjusted on a prospective basis as appropriate, at each balance sheet date. The effects of any revision are included in the statement of profit and loss when the changes arise.

Though the Company measures investment property using cost-based measurement, the fair value of investment property is disclosed in the notes. Fair values are determined based on estimates.

Investment properties are derecognized when either they have been disposed of or when the investment property is permanently withdrawn from use and no future economic benefit is expected from its disposal.

The difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset is recognized in the statement of profit and loss in the period of de-recognition.

vi. Financial instruments

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

(a) Financial Assets:

I. Initial measurement:

All financial assets are recognized 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. Financial assets are classified, at initial recognition, as subsequently measured at amortized cost, fair value

through other comprehensive income (OCI), and fair value through profit or loss.

The classification of financial assets at initial recognition depends on the financial asset''s contractual cash flow characteristics and the Company''s business model for managing them. The business model for managing financial assets refers to how it manages its financial assets in order to generate cash flows. The business model determines whether cash flows will result from collecting contractual cash flows, selling financial assets, or both.

II. Subsequent measurement:

For purposes of subsequent measurement, financial assets are classified in below categories:

a. Debt instruments at amortized cost

A ''debt instrument'' is measured at the amortized cost if both the following conditions are met:

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

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

After initial measurement, such financial assets are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate (EIR) method. Amortized cost is calculated by considering any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of the EIR. The EIR amortization is included in finance income in the statement of profit or loss. The losses arising from impairment if any, are recognized in the statement of profit or loss.

b. Debt instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI).

A ''debt instrument” is classified as at the FVTOCI if both of the following criteria are met:

a) The objective of the business model is achieved both by collecting contractual cash flows and selling the financial assets and

b) The asset''s contractual cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest.

debt instruments included within the FVTOCI category are measured initially as well as at each reporting date at fair value. Fair value movements are recognized in the other comprehensive income (OCI). However, the Company does not have any debt instrument which meet the criteria for measuring the debt instrument at FVTOCI.

c. Debt Instruments at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL)

Any debt instrument, which does not meet the criteria for categorization as at amortized cost or as FVTOCI, are classified as at FVTPL.

In addition, the Company may elect to designate a debt instrument, which otherwise meets amortized cost or FVTOCI criteria, at FVTPL. However, such an election is allowed only if doing so reduces or eliminates a measurement or recognition inconsistency (referred to as an ''Accounting Mismatch''). The Company makes such elections on an instrument-by-instrument basis and routed through profit and loss.

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

d. Investment in Associate and Subsidiary Company

Investment in the associate and Subsidiary company is measured at cost less impairment loss, if any. Where an indication of impairment exists, the carrying amount of the investment is assessed and written down to its recoverable amount. On disposal of investments in subsidiaries and Associates, the difference between net disposal proceeds and the carrying amounts are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

e. Equity Investment

All equity investments, except investments in an associate, are measured at FVTPL. The Company may make an irrevocable election on initial recognition to present in OCI any subsequent changes in the fair value. The Company makes such election on an instrument-by-instrument basis.

III. Derecognition

A financial asset (or where applicable, a part of a financial asset or part of a Company of similar financial assets) is primarily derecognized (i.e. removed from the Company''s Standalone Financial Statements) when:

a) The rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired or

b) The Company has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from the asset or has assumed an obligation to pay the received cash flows in full without material delay to a third party under a ''pass-through'' arrangement and either (a) the Company has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset or (b) the Company has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, but has transferred control of the asset.

When the Company has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from an asset or has entered into a pass-through arrangement, it evaluates if and to what extent it has retained the risks and rewards of ownership. When it has neither transferred nor retained substantially all of the risks and rewards of the asset nor transferred control of the asset, the Company continues to recognize the transferred asset to the extent of the Company''s continuing involvement. In that case, the Company also recognizes an associated liability. The transferred asset and the associated liability are measured on a basis that reflects the rights and obligations that the Company has retained.

Continuing involvement that takes the form of a guarantee over the transferred asset is measured at the lower of the original carrying amount of the asset and the maximum amount of consideration that the Company could be required to repay.

IV. Impairment of Financial Assets:

Expected credit losses are recognized for all financial assets subsequent to initial recognition other than financial assets in the FVTPL category.

For financial assets other than trade receivables, as per Ind AS 109, the Company recognizes 12-month expected credit losses for all originated or acquired financial assets if at the reporting date, the credit risk of the financial asset has not increased significantly since its initial recognition. The expected credit losses are measured as lifetime expected credit losses if the credit risk on a financial asset increases significantly since its initial recognition. The Company''s trade receivables do not contain significant financing components and loss allowance on trade receivables is measured at an amount equal to lifetime expected losses i.e. expected cash shortfall.

The impairment losses and reversals are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

b) Financial Liabilities:

I. Initial recognition and measurement:

The Company recognizes a financial liability in its Balance Sheet when it becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. All financial liabilities are recognized initially at fair value minus, in the case of financial liabilities not recorded at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL), transaction costs that are attributable to the acquisition of the financial liability.

II. Subsequent measurement

a. Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss

Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss include financial liabilities held for trading and financial liabilities designated upon initial recognition as at fair value through profit or loss.

Financial liabilities are classified as held for trading if they are incurred for the purpose of repurchasing in the near term. Separated embedded derivatives are also classified as held for trading unless they are designated as effective hedging instruments.

Gains or losses on liabilities held for trading are recognized in the statement of profit and loss.

Financial liabilities designated upon initial recognition at fair value through profit or loss are designated as such at the initial date of recognition, and only if the criteria in Ind AS 109 are satisfied. For liabilities designated as FVTPL, fair value gains/ losses attributable to changes in own credit risk are recognized in OCI. These gains/ losses are not subsequently transferred to standalone statement of profit and loss. However, the Company may transfer the cumulative gain or loss within equity. All other changes in fair value of such liability are recognized in the statement of profit and loss. The Company has not designated any financial liability as at fair value through profit or loss.

b. Financial liabilities at amortized cost

After initial recognition, interest-bearing loans and borrowings are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the Effective Interest Rate (EIR) method. Gains and losses are recognized in statement of profit and loss when the liabilities are derecognized as well as through the EIR amortization process.

Amortized cost is calculated by considering any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of the EIR. The EIR amortization is included as finance costs in the statement of profit and loss.

III. Derecognition:

A financial liability is derecognized when the obligation under the liability is discharged or canceled or expires. When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as the derecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability. The difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognized in the Standalone Statement of Profit and Loss.

(c) Compound Financial Instruments

The liability component of a compound financial instrument is recognized initially at fair value of a similar liability that does not have an equity component. The equity component is recognized initially as the difference between the fair value of the compound financial instrument as a whole and the fair value of the liability component. Any directly attributable transaction costs are allocated to the liability and the equity components, if material, in proportion to their initial carrying amounts.

Subsequent to the initial recognition, the liability component of a compound financial instrument is measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method. The equity component of a compound financial instrument is not re-measured subsequent to initial recognition except on conversion or expiry.

(d) Offsetting of Financial Instruments

Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the balance sheet if there is a currently enforceable legal right to offset the recognized amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis, to realize the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.

(e) Re-classification

The Company determines the classification of financial assets and liabilities on initial recognition.

After initial recognition, no re-classification is made for financial assets which are equity instruments and financial liabilities. For financial assets which are debt instruments, a reclassification is made only if there is a change in the business model for managing those assets. Changes to the business model are expected to be infrequent. The management determines the change in the business model as a result of external or internal changes which are significant to the Company''s operations. A change in the business model occurs when the Company either begins or ceases to perform an activity that is significant to its operations.

If the Company reclassifies financial assets, it applies the reclassification prospectively from the reclassification date which is the first day of the immediately next reporting period following the change in the business model.

The Company does not restate any previously recognized gains, losses (including impairment gains or losses) or interest.

vii. Inventories

Inventories (stock in trade) are valued at a lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost is computed on a weighted average basis. The net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion and estimated costs necessary to make the sale.

viii. Income Taxes

Income tax expense for the year comprises of current tax and deferred tax. It is recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss except to an item which is recognized directly in equity or in other comprehensive income.

(a) Current tax:

Current tax is the expected tax payable/receivable on the taxable income/ loss for the year using applicable tax rates at the Balance Sheet date and any adjustment to taxes in respect of previous years. In respect of amounts adjusted outside profit or loss (i.e. in other comprehensive income or equity), the corresponding tax effect, if any, is also adjusted outside profit or loss.

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

(b) Deferred tax:

Deferred tax is recognized using the balance sheet approach. Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for all taxable temporary differences, and deferred tax assets are recognized for all deductible temporary differences, carry forward tax losses and allowances to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary differences, carry forward tax losses and allowances can be utilized.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the year when the asset is realized 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.

Deferred tax assets are recognized only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which such deferred tax assets can be utilized. In situations where the Company has unused tax losses and unused tax credits, deferred tax assets are recognized only if it is probable that they can be utilized against future taxable profits. Deferred tax assets are reviewed for the appropriateness of their respective carrying amounts at each Balance Sheet date.

At each reporting date, the Company re-assesses unrecognized deferred tax assets. It recognizes previously unrecognized deferred tax assets to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profits allow deferred tax assets to be recovered.

ix. Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, bank balances and any deposits with original maturities of three months or less (that are readily convertible to known amounts of Cash and cash equivalents and subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value). However, for the purpose of the Statement of cash flows, in addition to the above items, any bank overdrafts/ cash credits that are an integral part of the Company''s cash management, are also included as a component of Cash and cash equivalents.

Note 1: Significant Accounting Policies

a. General Information:

Mysore Petro Chemicals Limited ("the Company") is a public limited Company incorporated in India with its registered office at D/4, Jyothi Complex, 134/1, Infantry Road, Bengaluru-560 001. It is engaged in trading of Maleic Anhydride and other chemicals. The equity shares of the Company is listed on BSE and the security code is 506734.

b. Basis of preparation:

For all periods up to and including the year ended March 31, 2017, the Company had prepared its 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''). Detailed explanation on how the transition from previous GAAP to Ind AS has affected the Company is given under Note 42.

The standalone financial statements have been prepared and presented under the historical cost convention, on accrual basis of accounting except for certain financial assets and financial liabilities that are measured at fair values at the end of each reporting period, as stated in accounting policies stated below. The accounting policies have been applied consistently over all the periods presented in these financial statement.

c. Statement of Compliance:

The standalone financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with Ind AS notified under the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 as amended by the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) (Amendment) Rules, 2016 and the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) (Amendment) Rules, 2017.

The standalone financial statements comply in all material aspects with Ind AS notified under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 (the Act) [Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015] and other relevant provisions of the Act.

d. Use of estimates and judgments:

The preparation of standalone financial statements in conformity with Ind AS requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions. These estimates judgments and assumptions affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the standalone financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the year. Accounting estimates could change from period to period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Appropriate changes in estimates are made as management becomes aware of changes in circumstances surrounding the estimates. Changes in estimates are reflected in the standalone financial statements in the period in which changes are made and if material their effects are disclosed in the notes to the standalone financial statements.

e. Operating Cycle:

Assets and liabilities other than those relating to long-term contracts are classified as current if it is expected to realize or settle within 12 months after the balance sheet date.

In case of long-term contracts, the time between acquisition of assets for processing and realization of the entire proceeds under the contracts in cash or cash equivalent exceeds one year. Accordingly, for classification of assets and liabilities related to such contracts as current, duration of each contract is considered as its operating cycle. _)

f. 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:

i) In the principal market for the asset or liability, or

ii) 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 by the Company.

The fair value of an asset or a liability is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, assuming that market participants act in their economic best interest.

A fair value measurement of a non-financial asset takes into account a market participant''s ability to generate economic benefits by using the asset in its highest and best use or by selling it to another market participant that would use the asset in its highest and best use.

The Company uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available to measure fair value, maximizing the use of relevant observable inputs and minimizing the use of unobservable inputs.

All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the financial statements are categorized within the fair value hierarchy, described as follows, based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole:

i) Level 1 — Quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

ii) Level 2 — Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is directly or indirectly observable

iii) Level 3 — Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is unobservable.

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

g. Property, Plant and Equipment:

Property, plant and equipment is stated at acquisition cost net of accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. 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 and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other repairs and maintenance 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 property, plant and equipment are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

Depreciation is provided on a pro-rata basis on the straight line method based on estimated useful life prescribed under Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013.

Freehold land is not depreciated. Leasehold land is amortized over the remaining period of lease.

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

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

Upon first-time adoption of Ind AS, the Company has elected to measure all its property, plant and equipment at the Previous GAAP carrying amount as its deemed cost on the date of transition to Ind AS i.e. April 1, 2016.

h. Investment Property:

Investment property comprises of building that are held for long-term rental yields and/or for capital appreciation. Investment property are initially recognized at cost. Subsequently investment property is carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses.

Depreciation on building is provided over the useful life as specified in Schedule II of the Companies Act, 2013. The residual values, useful life and depreciation method of investment property are reviewed, and adjusted on prospective basis as appropriate, at each balance sheet date. The effects of any revision are included in the statement of profit and loss when the changes arise.

Though the Company measures investment property using cost based measurement, the fair value of investment property is disclosed in the notes. Fair values are determined based on estimates.

Investment property are derecognized when either they have been disposed of or when the investment property is permanently withdrawn from use and no future economic benefit is expected from its disposal.

The difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset is recognized in the statement of profit and loss in the period of de-recognition.

i. Inventories:

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost is computed on a weighted average basis. The net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion and estimated costs necessary to make the sale.

j. Cash and Cash Equivalents:

Cash and cash equivalents for the purpose of Cash Flow Statement comprise cash and cheques in hand, bank balance, demand deposits with bank where the original maturity is three months or less and other short term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible into cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.

k. Financial Instruments:

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

Financial Asset

Initial recognition and measurement

The Company classifies its financial assets in the following measurement categories;

- those to be measured subsequently at fair value (either through OCI, or through profit or loss)

- those measured at amortized cost

All financial assets are recognized 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 classified in four categories:

i) Debt instruments at amortized cost

ii) Debt instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI)

iii) Debt instruments, derivatives and equity instruments at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL)

iv) Equity instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI)

Debt instruments at amortized cost

A ‘debt instrument'' is measured at the amortized cost if both the following conditions are met:

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

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

After initial measurement, such financial assets are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate (EIR) method. Amortized cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of the EIR. The EIR amortization is included in finance income in the statement of profit or loss. The losses arising from impairment if any, are recognized in the statement of profit or loss.

Debt instruments at FVTOCI

A ‘debt instrument'' is classified as at the FVTOCI if both of the following criteria are met:

a) The objective of the business model is achieved both by collecting contractual cash flows and selling the financial assets, and

b) The asset''s contractual cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest.

Debt instruments included within the FVTOCI category are measured initially as well as at each reporting date at fair value. Fair value movements are recognized in the other comprehensive income (OCI). However, the Company does not have any debt instruments which meets the criteria for measuring the debt instrument at FVTOCI.

Debt instrument at FVTPL

Any debt instrument, 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 debt instrument, which otherwise meets amortized cost or FVTOCI criteria, at FVTPL. However, such election is allowed only if doing so reduces or eliminates a measurement or recognition inconsistency (referred to as ‘Accounting Mismatch''). The Company has not designated any debt instrument at FVTPL.

Debt instruments included within the FVTPL category are measured at fair value with all changes recognized in the Profit or Loss

Equity investments

All equity investments, except investments in an associate, are measured at FVTPL. The Company may make an irrevocable election on initial recognition to present in OCI any subsequent changes in the fair value. The Company makes such election on an instrument-by-instrument basis.

De-recognition of Financial Assets

A financial asset (or, where applicable, a part of a financial asset or part of a Company of similar financial assets) is primarily derecognized (i.e. removed from the Company''s Standalone Financial Statements) when:

a) The rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired, or

b) The Company has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from the asset or has assumed an obligation to pay the received cash flows in full without material delay to a third party under a ‘pass-through'' arrangement and either (a) the Company has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, or (b) the Company has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, but has transferred control of the asset.

When the Company has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from an asset or has entered into a pass-through arrangement, it evaluates if and to what extent it has retained the risks and rewards of ownership. When it has neither transferred nor retained substantially all of the risks and rewards of the asset, nor transferred control of the asset, the Company continues to recognize the transferred asset to the extent of the Company''s continuing involvement. In that case, the Company also recognizes an associated liability. The transferred asset and the associated liability are measured on a basis that reflects the rights and obligations that the Company has retained.

Continuing involvement that takes the form of a guarantee over the transferred asset is measured at the lower of the original carrying amount of the asset and the maximum amount of consideration that the Company could be required to repay.

Impairment of Financial Asset:

Expected credit losses are recognized for all financial assets subsequent to initial recognition other than financial assets in FVTPL category.

For financial assets other than trade receivables, as per Ind AS 109, the Company recognizes 12 months expected credit losses for all originated or acquired financial assets if at the reporting date the credit risk of the financial asset has not increased significantly since its initial recognition. The expected credit losses are measured as lifetime expected credit losses if the credit risk on financial asset increases significantly since its initial recognition.

The Company''s trade receivables do not contain significant financing component and loss allowance on trade receivables is measured at an amount equal to life time expected losses i.e. expected cash shortfall.

The impairment losses and reversals are recognized in Statement of Profit and Loss. Financial Liabilities:

Initial recognition and measurement:

The Company recognizes a financial liability in its Balance Sheet when it becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. All financial liabilities are recognized initially at fair value minus, in the case of financial liabilities not recorded at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL), transaction costs that are attributable to the acquisition of the financial liability.

Subsequent measurement:

Financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. Financial liabilities carried at fair value through profit or loss are measured at fair value with all changes in fair value recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

De-recognition:

A financial liability is derecognized when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged, cancelled or expires. The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability derecognized and the consideration paid is recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

l. Provisions and Contingent Liabilities:

Provisions 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. Provisions are measured at the best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the present obligation at the Balance Sheet date.

If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted to reflect its present value using a current pre-tax rate that reflects the current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the obligation. When discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognized as a finance cost.

Contingent liabilities are disclosed when there is a possible obligation arising from past events, the existence of which will be confirmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of the Company or a present obligation that arises from past events where it is either not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation or a reliable estimate of the amount cannot be made.

m. Revenue Recognition:

Revenue from sale of goods is recognized when all the significant risks and rewards of ownership in the goods are transferred to the buyer as per the terms of the contract, there is no continuing managerial involvement with the goods and the amount of revenue can be measured reliably. The Company retains no effective control of the goods transferred to a degree usually associated with ownership and no significant uncertainty exists regarding the amount of the consideration that will be derived from the sale of goods. Revenue is measured at fair value of the consideration received or receivable, after deduction of any trade discounts, volume rebates and any taxes or duties collected on behalf of the government which are levied on sales such as value added tax, GST.

Interest income is recognized using the effective interest rate (EIR) method.

Dividend income on investments is recognized when the right to receive dividend is established.

n. Employee Benefits:

Retirement benefits in the form of Provident Fund, in case of certain employees, are a defined contribution scheme and the contributions are charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss of the year when the contributions to the respective funds are due. There are no other obligations other than the contribution payable to the respective trusts.

Gratuity liability and Provident Fund, in case of other employees not covered under defined contribution scheme, are defined benefit obligations. Gratuity liability is provided for on the basis of an actuarial valuation on projected unit credit method made at the end of each financial year. Provident fund contribution to the Trust is charged to Statement of Profit and Loss of the year when the contribution to the fund is due. Any deficit in the fund is provided for and funded.

Short term compensated absences are provided for based on estimates. Long term compensated absences are provided for based on actuarial valuation. The actuarial valuation is done as per projected unit credit method.

Actuarial gains/losses are immediately taken to other comprehensive income and are not deferred.

o. Impairment of non-financial assets :

Non-financial assets are subject to impairment tests whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amount may not be recoverable. Where the carrying value of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount (i.e. the higher of value in use and fair value less costs to sell), the asset is written down accordingly.

Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the impairment test is carried out on the smallest Company of assets to which it belongs for which there are separately identifiable cash flows; its cash generating units (‘CGUs'').

p. Income Taxes:

Income tax expense for the year comprises of current tax and deferred tax. It is recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss except to an item which is recognized directly in equity or in other comprehensive income.

Current tax is the expected tax payable/receivable on the taxable income/loss for the year using applicable tax rates at the Balance Sheet date, and any adjustment to taxes in respect of previous years.

Deferred tax is recognized in respect of temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the corresponding amounts used for taxation purposes.

A deferred tax liability is recognized based on the expected manner of realization or settlement of the carrying amount of assets and liabilities, using tax rates enacted, or substantively enacted, by the end of the reporting period. Deferred tax assets are recognized only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the asset can be utilized. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realized.

Current tax assets and current tax liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognized amounts and there is an intention to settle the asset and the liability on a net basis. Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities; and the deferred tax assets and the deferred tax liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority.

q. Foreign Currencies:

The standalone financial statements are presented in INR, the functional currency of the Company. Items included in the standalone financial statements of the Company are recorded using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the Company operates (the ‘functional currency'').

Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using exchange rates at the date of the transaction. Foreign exchange gains and losses from settlement of these transactions, and from translation of monetary assets and liabilities at the reporting date exchange rates are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

r. Earnings Per Share:

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing the net profit for the period attributable to the equity shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period. The weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period and for all periods presented is adjusted for events, such as bonus shares, other than the conversion of potential equity shares that have changed the number of equity shares outstanding, without a corresponding change in resources.

For the purpose of calculating diluted earnings per share, the net profit for the period attributable to equity shareholders and the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period is adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potential equity shares.

s. Leases :

Leases in which a substantial portion of the risks and reward of ownership are retained by the lessor are classified as operating leases. Payment and receipts under such leases are recognized to the statement of profit and loss on a straight line basis over the term of the lease unless the lease payment to the lessor are structured to increase in line with expected general inflation to compensate for the lessor''s expected inflationary cost increases, in which case the same are recognized as an expenses in line with contractual term.

Leases are classified as financial leases whenever the terms of the lease transfer substantially all the risks and reward incidental to ownership to the lessee.

Pursuant to the provisions of Section 188 of the Companies Act, 2013 and Letter of Offer dated May 18, 2018 received from Kamrup Enterprises Limited and Bihariji Construction (I) Limited announcing its intention to buy-back upto 1,24,000 shares and 4,00,000 shares respectively, the Company has tendered its entire shares for buy-back subject to the same being available for buyback by the respective Company. As a result, above investment have been classified as Current Investment.

Note A. Significant Accounting Policies a. Basis of preparation

The financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in India under the historical cost convention on accrual basis. The financial statements are prepared to comply in all material aspects with the Accounting Standard specified under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013, read with Rule 7 of the Companies (Accounts) Rules, 2014 and other relevant provisions of the Companies Act, 2013 to the extent applicable. The accounting policies have been consistently applied by the Company and except for the changes in accounting policy discussed more fully below, are consistent with those used in the previous year.

b. Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the results of operations during the reporting period end. Although these estimates are based upon management''s best knowledge of current events and actions, actual results could differ from these estimates.

c. Fixed Assets

Fixed assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses if any. Cost comprises the purchase price and any attributable cost of bringing the asset to its working condition for its intended use. Borrowing costs relating to acquisition of fixed assets which takes substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use are also included to the extent they relate to the period till such assets are ready to be put to use.

d. Depreciation and Amortization

i. Leasehold land is amortized over the period of lease.

ii. Intangible assets are amortized over the estimated useful life of 4 years.

e. Impairment of Assets

The carrying amounts of assets are reviewed at each balance sheet date if there is any indication of impairment based on internal/external factors. An impairment loss is recognized wherever the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the greater of the asset''s net selling price and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value at the weighted average cost of capital.

After impairment, depreciation is provided on the revised carrying amount of the asset over its remaining useful life.

f. Investments

Investments that are readily realizable and intended to be held for not more than a year are classified as current investments. All other investments are classified as long-term investments. Current investments are carried at lower of cost and fair value determined on an individual investment basis. Long-term investments are carried at cost. However, provision for diminution in value is made to recognize a decline other than temporary in the value of the investments.

g. Inventories

Inventories are valued as follows:

Raw materials, Lower of cost and net realizable value. However, materials and other items held for components, stores and use in the production of inventories are not written down below cost if the finished spares products in which they will be incorporated are expected to be sold at or above cost.

Cost is determined on a weighted average basis.

\

Stock in Process and Lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost includes direct materials and labour and finished goods a proportion of manufacturing overheads based on normal operating capacity. Cost of finished goods includes excise duty.

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

h. Revenue Recognition

Revenue is recognized to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Company and the revenue can be reliably measured.

Sale of Goods

Revenue is recognized when the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods have passed to the buyer. Excise Duty deducted from turnover (gross) is the amount that is included in the amount of turnover (gross) and not the entire amount of liability arised during the year.

Interest

Revenue is recognized on a time proportion basis taking into account the amount outstanding and the rate applicable. Dividends

Revenue is recognized when the shareholders'' right to receive payment is established by the balance sheet date.

i. Foreign Currency Translation Foreign Currency Transaction Initial Recognition

Foreign currency transactions are recorded in the reporting currency by applying to the foreign currency amount the exchange rate between the reporting currency and the foreign currency at the date of the transaction.

ii. Conversion

Foreign currency monetary items are reported using the closing rate. Non-monetary items which are carried in terms of historical cost denominated in a foreign currency are reported using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction and non-monetary items which are carried at fair value or other similar valuation denominated in a foreign currency are reported using the exchange rates that existed when the values were determined.

iii. Exchange Differences

Exchange differences arising on the settlement of monetary items or on reporting company''s monetary items at rates different from those at which they were initially recorded during the year or reported in previous financial statements, are recognized as income or as expenses in the year in which they arise except in case of long term liabilities, where they relate to acquisition of fixed assets, in which case they are adjusted to the carrying cost of such assets.

iv. Forward Exchange Contracts not intended for trading or speculation purposes

The premium or discount arising at the inception of forward exchange contracts is amortized as expense or income over the life of the contract. Exchange differences on such contracts are recognized in the statement of profit and loss in the year in which the exchange rates change. Any profit or loss arising on cancellation or renewal of forward exchange contract is recognized as income or as expense for the year.

j. Retirement and other employee benefits

i. Retirement benefits in the form of Provident Fund, in case of certain employees, are a defined contribution scheme and the contributions are charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss of the year when the contributions to the respective funds are due. There are no other obligations other than the contribution payable to the respective trusts.

ii. Gratuity liability and Provident Fund, in case of other employees not covered under defined contribution scheme, are defined benefit obligations. Gratuity liability is provided for on the basis of an actuarial valuation on projected unit credit method made at the end of each financial year. Provident Fund contribution to the Trust is charged to Statement of Profit and Loss of the year when the contribution to the fund is due. Any deficit in the fund is provided for and funded.

iii. Short term compensated absences are provided for based on estimates. Long term compensated absences are provided for based on actuarial valuation. The actuarial valuation is done as per projected unit credit method.

iv. Actuarial gains/losses are immediately taken to Statement of Profit and loss and are not deferred.

k. Income taxes

Tax expense comprises of current tax. Current income tax is measured at the amount expected to be paid to the tax authorities in accordance with the Indian Income Tax Act.

Deferred tax is measured based on the tax rates and the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date. Deferred tax assets are recognized only to the extent that there is reasonable certainty that sufficient future taxable income will be available against which such deferred tax assets can be realized. In situations where the company has unabsorbed depreciation or carry forward tax losses, all deferred tax assets are recognized only if there is virtual certainty supported by convincing evidence that they can be realized against future taxable profits.

Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each balance sheet date. The company writes down the carrying amount of deferred tax asset to the extent that it is no longer reasonably certain or virtually certain, as the case may be, that sufficient future taxable income will be available against which deferred tax asset can be realized. Any such write down is reversed to the extent that it becomes reasonably certain or virtually certain, as the case may be, that sufficient future taxable income will be available.

At each balance sheet date the Company re-assesses unrecognized deferred tax assets. It recognizes unrecognized deferred tax assets to the extent that it has become reasonably certain or virtually certain, as the case may be that sufficient future taxable income will be available against which such deferred tax assets can be realized.

l. Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing the net profit or loss for the period attributable to equity shareholders by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period. Partly paid equity shares are treated as a fraction of an equity share to the extent that they were entitled to participate in dividends relative to a fully paid equity share during the reporting period.

For the purpose of calculating diluted earnings per share, the net profit or loss for the period attributable to equity shareholders and the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period are adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potential equity shares.

m. Provisions, Contingent Liabilities & Contingent Assets

A provision is recognized when an enterprise has a present obligation as a result of past event it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation, in respect of which a reliable estimate can be made. Provisions are not discounted to its present value and are determined based on best estimate required to settle the obligation at the balance sheet date. These are reviewed at each balance sheet date and adjusted to reflect the current best estimates. Provision for expenditure relating to voluntary retirement is made when the employee accepts the offer of early retirement.

n. Cash and Cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents in the balance sheet comprise cash at bank and in hand and short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less.

o. Derivative Instruments

The Company uses derivative financial instruments such as forward exchange contracts to hedge its risks associated with foreign currency fluctuations. Accounting policy for forward exchange contracts is given in note i (iv) above.

Future cash outflows in respect of above are determinable only on receipt of judgments/decisions pending at various forums/authorities.

c) The operations of Phthalic Anhydride Plant at Raichur, Karnataka was closed during 3rd week of April 2013.
