2. Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Preparation of Financial Statements

The Financial Statements of the Company have been prepared and presented in accordance with the Generally Accepted
Accounting Principles in India (''Indian GAAP''). It comprises the Accounting Standards notified u/s 133 read with section 469
of the Companies Act, 2013. The accounting policies have been framed, keeping in view the fundamental accounting
assumptions of Going Concern, Consistency and Accrual, and also the basic considerations of Prudence, Substance over
form, and Materiality. Based on the nature of products and the time between acquisition of assets and their realisation in
cash and cash equivalents, the Company has ascertained its operating cycle as 12 months for the purpose of current or non¬
current classification of assets and liabilities. These financial statements have been prepared on historical cost basis except
certain items like Financial Leases and Defined Benefit Plans are measured at fair value.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements requires the management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect
the amounts reported in the financial statements and notes thereto. The management believes that these estimates and
assumptions are reasonable and prudent but the actual results may differ from them. They are reviewed on an on-going
basis and any revision to accounting estimates is recognised prospectively in current and future periods. Accounting
estimates and assumptions that have a significant effect on the amounts reported in the financial statements include:

i) Net Realisable value of items of Inventories

ii) Useful life and Residual value of Property, Plant and Equipment and Intangible Assets

iii) Defined Benefit obligations

iv) Deferred Tax asset or liability

v) Provisions for Trade Receivables

vi) Other Provisions and Contingencies

Property, Plant and Equipments

Property, plant and equipments are initially recognised at cost. Cost includes purchase price, taxes and duties and other
costs directly attributable to bringing the asset to the working condition for its intended use. However, cost excludes duties
and taxes wherever credit of such duties and taxes is availed. It is thereafter carried at its cost less accumulated
depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any.

Depreciation is provided under the ''Straight-line'' method as per the useful life specified in Schedule II to the Companies Act,
2013. Residual values of assets are measured at not more than 5% of their original cost. For assets added or disposed during
the year, depreciation is charged on pro-rata basis from the date of addition or till the date of disposal.

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets which are purchased and have a finite useful life are measured at cost, less accumulated amortisation and
accumulated impairment losses, if any. Cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the

intangible asset. Subsequent expenditure on intangible assets is capitalised only when it increases the future economic
benefits embodied in the specific asset to which it relates. All other expenditure is recognised in the statement of profit and
loss as incurred.

Intangible assets are amortised on a ''Straight-Line'' basis, over their estimated useful lives from the date they are ready for
use, as per the rates mentioned below:

Goodwill 25%

Brands or trademarks 25%

Computer Software 20%

The residual value of intangible assets is considered as Nil. The amortisation method and useful lives are reviewed and
adjusted, if appropriate, at the end of each reporting period.

Impairment of Assets

At the end of each reporting period, the carrying amounts of Property, Plant & Equipment, and Intangible assets are tested
for impairment. An Impairment loss is recognised for an amount by which the asset''s carrying amount exceeds its
recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset''s fair value less costs of disposal and Value-in-use.
Value-in-use is the present value of future cash flows discounted using a rate which reflects the current market rates and
the risks specific to the asset.

For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels (cash-generating units) for which
independent cash inflows can be identified. Impairment losses, if any, are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss
and included in depreciation and amortisation expenses.

Investments

Long-term investments are valued at cost less provision for diminution in value, if the diminution is other than temporary.
Current investments are valued at lower of cost and fair value. Gain or loss arising on the sale of investments is computed as
a difference between carrying amount and the proceeds from sale, net of any expenses. Such gain or loss is recognised in
the Statement of Profit and Loss.

Inventories

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost is computed on a ''First In First Out'' basis.

Cost of raw materials and stores and spares includes cost of purchase and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to
their present location and condition. The aforesaid items are valued at net realisable value if the finished products in which
they are to be incorporated are expected to be sold at a loss. Cost of finished goods and work-in-progress include all costs
of purchases, conversion costs and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition.
The net realisable 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.

Trade Receivables and Loans and Advances

Trade Receivables and Loans and Advances are presented after making adequate provision for any shortfall in their
recovery. The provision and any subsequent recovery is recognised in the Profit and Loss statement. Bad debts are written
off when they are identified.

Cash and cash equivalents

All highly liquid financial instruments, which are readily convertible into known amount of cash that are subject to an
insignificant risk of change in value and having original maturities of three months or less from the date of purchase are
considered to be cash equivalents.
