The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Indian Accounting
Standards ("Ind AS") notified under the companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015
and Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Amendments Rules, 2016and the relevant
provisions of the Companies Act, 2013. The financial statements have been prepared on an
accrual basis and under the historical cost convention. The accounting policies adopted in the
preparation of financial statements are consistent with those of previous year. All assets and
liabilities have been classified as current or non-current as per the Company''s normal operating
cycle and other criteria set out in the Schedule III to the Companies Act, 2013. Based on the
nature of products and the time between the acquisition of assets for processing and their
realization in cash and cash equivalents, the Company has ascertained its operating cycle as 12
months for the purpose of current - non-current classification of assets and liabilities.
The preparation of financial statements requires the management to make estimates and
assumptions considered in the reported amounts of assets and liabilities (including contingent
liabilities) as on the date of the financial statements and the reported income and expenses
during the reporting period. The estimates and assumptions used in the financial statements are
based upon the Management''s evaluation of the relevant facts and circumstances as on the
date of financial statements. Management believes that the estimates used in the preparation of
the financial statements are prudent and reasonable. Future results may vary from these
estimates.
All items of property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and
accumulated impairment losses, if any. Cost of acquisition is inclusive of purchase price, levies
and any directly attributable cost of bringing the assets to its working condition for the intended
use. Subsequent costs are included in the asset''s carrying amount or recognised as separate
asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that the future economic benefits associated with
the item will flow to the company and cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying
amount of any component accounted for as a separate asset is derecognized when replaced.
All other repairs and maintenance are charged to Statement of Profit and Loss during the
reporting period in which they are incurred.
Depreciation on Fixed Assets is provided on straight line method at the rates based on the useful
life of the asset in the manner prescribed in Schedule 11 to the Companies Act, 2013.
Capital work-in-progress comprises cost of fixed assets that are not yet ready for their intended
use at the year end.
The carrying amounts of assets are reviewed at each balance sheet date to ascertain
impairment based on internal / external factors. An impairment loss is recognized when the
carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is higher
of the net selling price of the assets and their value in use.
Operating Leases: Rentals are recognized as an expense with reference to lease terms and
other considerations.
In accordance with the requirements of Indian Accounting Standard 23 (Ind AS 23), "Borrowing
Costs", borrowing costs attributable to acquisition/construction of a qualifying asset (i.e. an
asset requiring substantial period of time to get ready for intended use or sale) are added to the
cost of those assets, until such time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use
or sale. Pre-operative expenses incurred during construction period are capitalised, where
appropriate. Interest expenditure has been accounted using effective interest rate method.
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. Purchase and sale of financial assets are recognised on the
trade date, i.e., the date that the Company commits to purchase or sell the asset.
A financial asset is measured at amortised cost if it is held within a business model whose
objective is to hold the asset in order to collect contractual cash flows and the contractual
terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely
payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
A financial asset is measured at FVTOCI if it is held within a business model whose
objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets
and the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows
that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
A financial asset which is not classified in any of the above categories are measured
at FVTPL.
For trade receivables, Company applies ''simplified approach'' for recognition of impairment
loss allowance on the trade receivable balances. The application of simplified approach
require the Company to recognizes impairment loss allowance based on lifetime ECLs at
each reporting date, right from its initial recognition. The Company uses historical default
rates to determine impairment loss on the portfolio of trade receivables. At every reporting
date these historical default rates are reviewed and changes in the forward looking
estimates are analysed.
I. Initial recognition and measurement:
All financial liabilities are recognized at fair value and in case of loans, net of directly attributable
transaction costs. Fees of recurring nature are directly recognized in the Statement of Profit and
Loss as finance cost.
II. Subsequent measurement :
Financial liabilities are carried at amortized cost using the effective interest method. For trade
and other payables maturing within one year from the balance sheet date, the carrying amounts
approximate fair value due to the short maturity of these instruments.
A financial asset (or a part of the financial asset) is derecognized from the Company''s balance
sheet when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire or it transfers
the financial asset and the transfer qualifies for derecognition under Ind AS 109. A financial
liability (or a part of the financial liability) is derecognized from the Company''s balance sheet
when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires.
Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash at banks and on hand, demand deposits and other
short term deposits that are readily convertible into known amounts of cash, are subject to
insignificant risk of changes in value and have a maturity of three months or less.
Inventories consist of raw materials, stores and spares, work-in-progress and finished goods
are measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value after providing for obsolescence. The
cost of all categories of inventories is based on the weighted average method. Cost includes
expenditures incurred in acquiring the inventories, production or conversion costs and other
costs incurred in bringing them to their existing location and condition. In the case of finished
goods and work-in-progress, cost includes an appropriate share of overheads based on normal
operating capacity. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of
business, less the estimated costs of completion and selling expenses.
The carrying amounts of the Company''s non-financial assets, other than inventories and
deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any
indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, then the asset''s recoverable amount is
estimated to determine the extent of impairment if any.
The recoverable amount of an asset or cash-generating unit (as defined below) is the greater of
its value in use and its fair value less costs to sell. In assessing value in use, the estimated future
cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects
current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset or the
cash-generating unit.
