Accounting Policies of Shivagrico Implements Ltd. Company

Mar 31, 2025

IV. Material Accounting Policies

Following is the list of the significant accounting policies adopted in the preparation of these
standalone Financial Statements of Shivagrico Implements Ltd. These policies have been
consistently applied to all the periods presented, unless otherwise stated.

a. Current versus non-current classification

The Company presents assets and liabilities in the balance sheet based on current/ non¬
current classification. An asset is treated as current when it is:

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

• Held primarily for the purpose of trading;

• Expected to be realised within twelve months after the reporting period; or

• Cash or cash equivalents unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a
liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period.

All other assets are classified as non-current.

A liability is treated as current when:

• It is expected to be settled in normal operating cycle;

• It is held primarily for the purpose of trading;

• It is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period; or

• There is no unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least twelve
months after the reporting period.

The Company classifies all other liabilities as non-current.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as non-current assets and liabilities.

The operating cycle is the time between the acquisition of assets for processing and their
realization in cash and cash equivalents.

b. Fair value measurement

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

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

• In the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the asset
or liability.

The principal or the most advantageous market must be accessible 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 best economic 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 un-observable 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:

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

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

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

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

Trade receivables, trade payables, cash and cash equivalents, other bank balances and
other current financial assets and liabilities are generally considered to approximate their
carrying amounts largely due to the short-term maturities of these instruments.

This note summarizes accounting policy for a fair value. Other fair value related
disclosures are given in the relevant notes.

c. Revenue recognition

The Company earns revenue primarily from sale of products and sale of services.
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, regardless of when the

payment is being made. Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration

received or receivable, taking into account contractually defined terms of payment and
excluding taxes or duties collected on behalf of the government. Revenue is measured

net of returns and discounts.

Sale of products

Revenues are recognized when the Company satisfies the performance obligation by transferring
a promised product to a customer. A product is transferred when the customer obtains control of
that product, which is at the point of transfer of custody to customers where usually the title is
passed, provided that the contract price is fixed or determinable and collectability of the
receivable is reasonably assured. Revenue in respect of export sale is recognized on the date of
bill of lading. Revenue from the sale of goods is measured at the fair value of the consideration
received or receivable, net of returns and allowances, trade discounts and volume rebates.

Sale of services

When the outcome of a transaction involving the rendering of services can be estimated reliably,
revenue associated with the transaction shall be recognized by reference to the stage of
completion of the transaction at the end of reporting period.

Interest income

Revenue from interest is recognized on accrual basis and determined by contractual rate of
interest.

Duty drawback and other incentives

Duty Drawback and Other Incentives are accounted for as and when all the conditions are
satisfied under the relevant regulations for making the claims and are measurable on a reliable
basis and it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the company.

d. Transactions in foreign currency

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. All monetary assets and liabilities as at the
Balance sheet date are restated at the applicable exchange rates prevailing on that date.
All exchange differences arising on transactions are charged to Profit & Loss Account.

e. Tax expenses

(i) Current tax

The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs
from ‘profit before tax'' as reported in the statement of profit and loss because of items
of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and items that are
never taxable or deductible. The Company''s current tax is calculated using tax rates
that have been enacted or substantively enacted, by the end of the reporting period.

(ii) Deferred tax

Deferred Income tax is provided in full, using the liability method, on temporary
differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying
amounts in the separate Financial Statements.

Deferred tax assets are recognized for all deductible temporary differences and unused
tax losses only if it is probable that future taxable amounts will be available to utilize
those temporary differences and losses. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset
when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets and liabilities and
when the deferred tax balances relate to the same taxation authority. Current tax
assets and tax liabilities are offset where the entity has a legally enforceable right to
offset and intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realize the asset and settle
the liability simultaneously.

Current and Deferred tax is recognized in profit or loss, except to the extent that it
relates to items recognized in other Comprehensive Income or directly in equity. In this
case, the tax is also recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity,
respectively.

f. Leases

The Company assesses whether a contract is or contains a lease, at inception of a
contract. A contract is, or contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the
use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. To assess
whether a contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset, the Company
assesses whether:

(i) the contract involves the use of an identified asset

(ii) the Company has substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the asset
through the period of the lease and

(iii) the Company has the right to direct the use of the asset.

At the date of commencement of the lease, the Company recognises a right-of-use
asset (“ROU”) and a corresponding lease liability for all lease arrangements in which it

is a lessee, except for leases with a term of twelve months or less (short-term leases)
and leases of low value assets. For these short-term and leases of low value assets,
the Company recognises the lease payments as an operating expense on a straight¬
line basis over the term of the lease.

The right-of-use assets are initially recognised at cost, which comprises the initial
amount of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or prior to the
commencement date of the lease plus any initial direct costs less any lease
incentives. They are subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depreciation

and impairment losses, if any. Right-of-use assets are depreciated from the
commencement date on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease term and
useful life of the underlying asset.

The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the future lease
payments. The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the
lease or, if not readily determinable, using the incremental borrowing rates. The lease
liability is subsequently re-measured by increasing the carrying amount to reflect
interest on the lease liability, reducing the carrying amount to reflect the lease

payments made.

A lease liability is re-measured upon the occurrence of certain events such as a

change in the lease term or a change in an index or rate used to determine lease

payments. The re-measurement normally also adjusts the leased assets.

Lease liability and ROU asset have been separately presented in the Balance Sheet
and lease payments have been classified as financing cash flows.

g. Impairment of assets

Assets are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that
the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized for the amount
by which the asset''s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. Such impairment loss is
recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss. Assets that suffered impairment are reviewed for
possible reversal of the impairment at the end of each reporting period. In case of such reversal,
the carrying amount of the asset is increased so as not to exceed the carrying amount that
would have been determined had there been no impairment loss. Such reversal of impairment
loss is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

h. Cash and cash equivalents and other bank balances

For the purpose of presentation in the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents
includes cash in hand, cash at bank and other short-term, highly liquid investments with
original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of
cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.

Other Bank Balances include balances other than those classified as cash and cash
equivalents and deposits with banks that are restricted for withdrawal and usage.

i. Trade receivables

Trade receivables are recognized initially at fair value and subsequently measured at
amortized cost using the effective interest method, less provision for impairment. Trade
receivables are generally considered approximate their carrying amount largely due to their
short-term maturity period.

j. Inventories

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Costs incurred in
bringing each product to its present location and condition are accounted for as follows:

• Raw materials: • Cost of raw materials used for manufacture is determined on first
in first out basis which includes cost of purchase and other costs incurred in bringing
the inventories to their present location and condition.

• Finished goods (Self Manufactured) and work in progress: • Cost includes cost
of direct materials and a proportion of labour and other manufacturing overheads based
on normal operating capacity. Cost is determined on first in first out basis.

• Finished goods (Acquired for Trading): • Cost includes cost of purchase and other

costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. Cost

is determined on first in first out basis.

• Stores, spares & other consumables: • Cost includes cost of purchase and other

costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. Cost

is determined on first in first out basis.

Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business,
less estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the
sale. Materials and other supplies held for use in the production of inventories are not
written down below cost if the finished products in which they will be incorporated are
expected to be sold at or above cost. However, when there has been a decline in the
price of materials and it is estimated that the cost of the finished products will exceed

net realizable value, the materials are written down to net realizable value.

k. Property, Plant and Equipment

Freehold land is carried at historical cost. Other items of property, plant and equipment are
stated at historical cost less depreciation. Historical Cost represents direct expenses
incurred on acquisition or construction of the assets and the attributable share of indirect
expenses and interest.

Subsequent costs are included in the asset''s carrying amount or recognised as a separate
asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated
with the item will flow to the Company and such cost can be measured reliably. The

carrying amount of any component accounted for as a separate asset is derecognized

when replaced. All repairs and maintenance are charged to profit or loss during the
reporting period in which they are incurred.

Items of Capital work-in-progress that are not yet ready for their intended use on the reporting date are
carried at cost being direct cost, related expenses and attributable interest.

l. Depreciation methods, estimated useful lives and residual value

Depreciation on property, plant and equipment other than freehold land is provided on
‘Written Down Value Method'' based on useful life as prescribed under Schedule II of the
Companies Act 2013.

• Freehold Land is not depreciated

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.

m. Intangible assets

Intangible Assets are stated at cost less accumulated amortization and net of impairments,
if any. An intangible asset is recognized if it is probable that the expected future economic
benefits that are attributable to the asset will flow to the Company and its cost can be
measured reliably. Intangible assets are amortized on straight-line basis over their
estimated useful lives.An intangible asset is derecognized on disposal, or when no future
economic benefits are expected to arise from continued use of the asset. Gains or losses
arising from derecognition of an intangible asset, measured as the difference between the
net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset, are recognized in the
Statement of Profit and Loss when the asset is derecognized.

n. Borrowing costs

General and specific borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition,
construction or production of a qualifying asset are capitalized as part of the cost of
respective assets during the period of time that is required to complete and prepare the
asset for its intended use. Qualifying assets are assets that necessarily take a substantial
period of time to get ready for their intended use or sale. Other borrowing costs are
expensed in the period in which they are incurred.

o. Trade and other payables

These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Company prior to
the end of financial year which are unpaid. Trade and other payables are presented as
current liabilities unless payment is not due within 12 months after the reporting period.
They are recognised initially at their fair value and subsequently measured at amortized
cost using the effective interest method. Trade payables is generally considered
approximate their carrying amount largely due to the short-term maturity of this instrument.

for at least twelve months after the reporting period.

All other assets are classified as non-current.

A liability is treated as current when:

• It is expected to be settled in normal operating cycle;

• It is held primarily for the purpose of trading;

• It is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period; or

• There is no unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least twelve

fair value measurement is unobservable.

For the purpose of fair value disclosures, the Company has determined classes of
assets and liabilities on the basis of the nature, characteristics and risks of the asset

Trade receivables, trade payables, cash and cash equivalents, other bank balances and
other current financial assets and liabilities are generally considered to approximate

Depreciation on property, plant and equipment other than freehold land is provided on
‘Written Down Value Method'' based on useful life as prescribed under Schedule II of the
Companies Act 2013.

* Freehold Land is not depreciated

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.

m. Intangible assets

Intangible Assets are stated at cost less accumulated amortization and net of impairments,
if any. An intangible asset is recognized if it is probable that the expected future economic
benefits that are attributable to the asset will flow to the Company and its cost can be
measured reliably. Intangible assets are amortized on straight-line basis over their estimated
useful lives.An intangible asset is derecognized on disposal, or when no future economic
benefits are expected to arise from continued use of the asset. Gains or losses arising from
derecognition of an intangible asset, measured as the difference between the net disposal
proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset, are recognized in the Statement of Profit

Mar 31, 2015

A) Fixed assets

(i) Leasehold Land is valued at cost.

(ii) All other fixed assets are stated at cost of acquisition or construction less depreciation.

Capital work-in- Progress :

Projects under which assets are not ready for their intended use and other capital work-in-progress are carried at cost, comprising direct cost, related incidental expenses and attributable interest.

b) Depreciation

(i) Leasehold & Freehold land is not depreciated.

(ii) Depreciation on all other tangible fixed assets is provided on written down value method based on the useful lives of the respective assets in accordance with Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013 and the guidelines issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India. In respect of the assets, whose useful lives have expired, scrap value at 5% of the respective gross value has been accounted for as carrying cost and the balance amount has been transfered to retained earnings (general reserve). Extra shift depreciation wherever applicable are calculated on actual shift basis in respect of each mill/unit.

(iii) Cost of computer software is amortised over a period of five years

c) Long Term Investments

Long Term Investments are carried at cost.

d) Inventories

Inventories are valued as under

i. Raw Materials : At lower of cost or market value

ii. Finished Goods : At lower of cost or market value

iii. Semi Finished Goods : At lower of cost or market value

iv. Stores & Spares : At cost

v. Other Consumables : At cost

e) Employee benefits

i. Short Term Employee Benefits

All employee benefits falling due wholly within twelve months of rendering the service are classified as short term employee benefits. The benefits like salaries, wages, short term compensated absences etc. and the expected cost of bonus, ex-gratia are recognized in the period in which the employee renders the related service.

ii. Post-employment Benefits

(i) Defined Contribution Plans : The Company's state governed provident fund scheme, employee state insurance scheme and employee pension scheme are defined contribution plans. The contribution paid / payable under the schemes is recognized during the period in which the employee renders the related service.

(ii) Defined Benefit Plans : The Employees Gratuity Fund Scheme managed by trust is the company's defined benefit plan. Wherever applicable, the present value of the obligation under such defined benefit plan is determined based on actuarial valuation using the Projected Unit Credit Method, which recognizes each period of service as giving rise to additional unit of employee benefit entitlement and measures each unit separately to build up the final obligation.

The obligation is measured at the present value of the estimated future cash flows. The discount rate used for determining the present value of the obligation under defined benefit plan is based on the market yield on government securities of a maturity period equivalent to the weighted average maturity profile of the related obligations at the Balance Sheet date.

Actuarial gains and losses will de recognized immediately in the Profit and Loss Account.

In case of funded plans, the fair value of the plan assets is reduced form the gross obligation under the defined benefit plan to recognize the obligation on the net basis.

Gains or losses on the curtailment or settlement of any defined benefit plan are recognized when the curtailment or settlement occurs. Past service cost is recognized as expense on a straight-line basis over the average period until the benefits become vested.

f) Borrowing Cost

Borrowing cost that are attributable to the acquisition or construction of qualifying assets are capitalised as part of the cost of such assets. A qualifying asset is one that necessarily takes substantial period of time to get ready for intended use or sale. All other borrowing costs are charged to revenue.
