Provisions are recognised when the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation as
a result of past events, it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the
obligation and the amount can be reliably estimated. Provisions are not recognised for future
operating losses.
Provisions are measured at the present value of management''s best estimate of the
expenditure required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period. The
discount rate used to determine the present value is a pre-tax rate that reflects current market
assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability. The increase in
the provision due to the passage of time is recognised as interest expense.
Contingent Liabilities are disclosed in respect of possible obligations that arise from past events
but their existence will be confirmed by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more
uncertain future events not wholly within the control of the Company or where any present
obligation cannot be measured in terms of future outflow of resources or where a reliable
estimate of the obligation cannot be made. The Company does not recognize a contingent
liability but discloses its existence in the financial statements.
The Company recognises revenue when the amount of revenue can be reliably measured, it is
probable that future economic benefits will flow to the Company and specific criteria have been
met for each of the Company''s activities as described below.
Revenue from sale of goods is recognised when control of the products being sold is transferred
to our customers and there are no longer any unfulfilled obligations. The performance
obligations in our contracts are fulfilled at the time of dispatch, delivery or upon formal customer
acceptance depending on customer terms.
Revenue from contract with customers for product design and development is recognised at a
point of time in accordance with the terms of the contract.
The Company recognises provision for sales return, on the basis of mutual satisfaction which is
measured at the Sales value excluding taxes & duties.
Export Incentives under various schemes are accounted in the year in which right to receive is
irrevocably established.
Interest income is recognized on a time proportion basis taking into account the amount
outstanding and the applicable rate of interest.
Revenue in respect of insurance/other claims etc, is recognized only when it is reasonably
certain that the ultimate collection will be made.
Dividends are generally recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss only when the right to
receive payment is established.
Liabilities for wages and salaries, including non-monetary benefits that are expected to be
settled wholly within 12 months after the end of the period in which the employees render
the related service are recognised in respect of employees'' services up to the end of the
reporting period and are measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities
are settled.
The liabilities for earned leave and sick leave that are not expected to be settled wholly
within 12 months are measured as the present value of expected future payments to be
made in respect of services provided by employees up to the end of the reporting period
using the projected unit credit method.
The Company operates the following post-employment schemes:
(a) defined benefit plans such as gratuity; and
(b) defined contribution plans such as provident fund.
The liability or asset recognised in the balance sheet in respect of defined benefit plans is
the present value of the defined benefit obligation at the end of the reporting period less the
fair value of plan assets. The defined benefit obligation is calculated annually by actuaries
using the projected unit credit method.
The present value of the defined benefit obligation is determined by discounting the
estimated future cash outflows by reference to market yields at the end of the reporting
period on government bonds that have terms approximating to the terms of the related
obligation.
The net interest cost is calculated by applying the discount rate to the net balance of the
defined benefit obligation and the fair value of plan assets. This cost is included in
employee benefit expense in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Remeasurement gains and losses arising from experience adjustments and changes in
actuarial assumptions are recognised in the period in which they occur, directly in other
comprehensive income. They are included in retained earnings in the statement of changes
in equity and in the balance sheet.
Defined Contribution Plans such as Provident Fund, etc., are charged to the Statement of
Profit and Loss as incurred.
Termination benefits are payable when employment is terminated by the Company before
the normal retirement date, or when an employee accepts voluntary redundancy in
exchange for these benefits. The Company recognises termination benefits at the earlier of
the following dates: (a) when the Company can no longer withdraw the offer of those
benefits; and (b) when the Company recognises costs for a restructuring that is within the
scope of Ind AS 37 and involves the payment of terminations benefits. In the case of an
offer made to encourage voluntary redundancy, the termination benefits are measured
based on the number of employees expected to accept the offer. Benefits falling due more
than 12 months after the end of the reporting period are discounted to present value.
Transactions in foreign currencies are recognised at the prevailing exchange rates on the
transaction dates. Realised gains and losses on settlement of foreign currency transactions are
recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Monetary foreign currency assets and liabilities at the year-end are translated at the year-end
exchange rates and the resultant exchange differences are recognised in the Statement of
Profit and Loss.
Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are
stated using the exchange rates at the dates of the initial transactions.
The income tax expense or credit for the period is the tax payable on the current period''s
taxable income based on the applicable income tax rate adjusted by changes in deferred tax
assets and liabilities attributable to temporary differences and to unused tax losses.
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 amount in the financial
statement. Deferred income tax is determined using tax rates (and laws) that have been
enacted or substantially enacted by the end of the reporting period and are excepted to apply
when the related deferred income tax assets is realised or the deferred income tax liability is
settled.
Deferred tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences and unused tax
losses, only if, it is probable that future taxable amounts will be available to utilise 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 off set where the Company 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 recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss, except to the extent
that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. In this
case, the tax is also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity,
respectively
Minimum Alternate Tax credit is recognised as deferred tax asset only when and to the extent
there is convincing evidence that the Company will pay normal income tax during the speci fied
period. Such asset is reviewed at each Balance Sheet date and the carrying amount of the MAT
credit asset is written down to the extent there is no longer a convincing evidence to the effect
that the Company will pay normal income tax during the specified period.
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing:
⢠the profit attributable to owners of the Company
⢠weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the financial year,
adjusted for bonus elements in equity shares issued during the year and excluding
treasury shares.
Diluted earnings per share adjusts the figures used in the determination of basic earnings
per share to take into account:
⢠the after income tax effect of interest and other financing costs associated with dilutive
potential equity shares, and
⢠the weighted average number of additional equity shares that would have been
outstanding assuming the conversion of all dilutive potential equity shares.
The Cash Flow statement is prepared by the âIndirect methodâ set out in Ind AS-7 on âCash
Flow Statement" and presents the cash flows by operating, investing and financing activities of
the Company.
The Company assesses at each reporting date whether there is an indication that a non¬
financial asset may be impaired based on internal/external factors. An asset is treated as
impaired when the carrying cost of asset exceeds its recoverable Value. An impairment loss is
charged to the statement of Profit and Loss in the year in which an asset is identified as
impaired. The impairment loss recognized in earlier accounting period is reversed if there has
been a change in the estimate of recoverable amount. After impairment, depreciation is
provided on the revised carrying amount of the asset over its remaining useful life.
Non-current assets held for sale are measured at the lower of its carrying value or fair value
less costs to sell. Non-current assets held for sale are not depreciated or amortized. Assets and
liabilities classified as held for sale are presented separately in the balance sheet.
Ministry of Corporate Affairs ("MCAâ) notifies new standards or amendments to the existing

37. The company has made investment of ?13.06 lakhs into equity shares and ?18.60 lakhs in share
application money in Shree Rama (Mauritius) Limited, its wholly owned subsidiary company. The
resident directors & key managerial personnel of the said WOS had resigned in the year 2005-06
and audited accounts for the year ended 30th September 2003 and onwards could not be prepared.
The WOS became defunct since 2005 under the respective law and its present status is also shown
as ''defunct''. The company has made full provision for diminution in the value of investment in equity
and share application money in earlier years.
In view of the above, it was not possible to prepare consolidated financial statements as required by
Ind AS 110 issued by ICAI, and other provisions of the Companies Act, 2013.
The fair values of the financial assets and liabilities are measured at the amount at which the
instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a
forced or liquidation sale.
The fair value of investment in quoted equity shares is measured at quoted price.
Fair values of cash and short term deposits, trade and other short term receivables, trade payables,
other current liabilities, short term loans from banks and other financial institutions approximate their
carrying amounts largely due to short-term maturities of these instruments.
Financial instruments with fixed and variable interest rates are evaluated by the Company based on
parameters such as interest rates and individual credit worthiness of the counterparty. Based on the
evaluation, allowances are taken into account for the expected losses of these receivables.
The company uses the following hierarchy for determining and disclosing the fair values of financial
instruments by valuation technique:
Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: Inputs other than the quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset
or liability, either directly or indirectly.
Level 3 : Input that is significant to the fair value measurement is unobservable.
As per Ind AS 109, we have adopted a policy for assessing credit risk as per expected credit loss
model for outstanding balances as on balance sheet date, based on the past performance and by
assessing overall credit worthiness of debtors, we arrived at the following rate to be provided on
closing debtors as per their ageing bucket:
The company has limited credit risk arising from cash and cash equivalents as the balances are
maintained with banks with high credit rating. Hence, these are low risk items.
The company evaluates the recoverability of Other financial assets at each reporting date and the
same are written off when there is no reasonable expectation of recovery. Where recoveries are
made, these are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and marketable securities and
the availability of funding through an adequate amount of committed credit facilities to meet
obligations when due and to close out market positions. Due to the dynamic nature of the
underlying businesses, company treasury maintains flexibility in funding by maintaining availability
under committed credit lines.
Management monitors rolling forecasts of the company''s liquidity position and cash and cash
equivalents on the basis of expected cash flows. This is generally carried out at local level in the
operating companies of the company in accordance with practice and limits set by the company.
These limits vary by location to take into account the liquidity of the market in which the entity
operates. In addition, the company''s liquidity management policy involves projecting cash flows in
major currencies and considering the level of liquid assets necessary to meet these, monitoring
balance sheet liquidity ratios against internal and external regulatory requirements and maintaining
debt financing plans.
The company operates internationally and is exposed to foreign exchange risk arising from
foreign currency transactions, primarily with respect to the US$, EUR, CHF & RUB. Foreign
exchange risk arises from future commercial transactions and recognized assets and liabilities
denominated in a currency that is not the company''s functional currency (INR). The risk is
measured through a forecast of highly probable foreign currency cash flows.
The company''s main interest rate risk arises from long-term borrowings with variable rates,
which expose the company to cash flow interest rate risk. The Company policy is mainly to
maintain its borrowings at fixed rate. As on 31st March 2025 and 31st March 2024, the
company''s borrowings at variable rate were denominated in INR.
The company''s fixed rate borrowings are carried at amortized cost. They are therefore not
subject to interest rate risk as defined in Ind AS 107, since neither the carrying amount nor the
future cash flows will fluctuate because of a change in market interest rates.
The company''s objectives when managing capital are to:
a. safeguard their ability to continue as a going concern, so that they can continue to provide
returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders, and
b. Maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital.
Consistent with others in the industry, the company monitors capital on the basis of the
following gearing ratio:
Net debt (total borrowings net of cash and cash equivalents) divided by total ''equity'' (as shown
in the balance sheet, including non-controlling interests).

(14) Credit Risk Management
As per Ind AS 109, we have adopted a policy for assessing credit risk as per expected credit loss model for outstanding balances as on balance sheet date, based on the past performance and by assessing overall creditworthiness of debtors we arrived at the following rate to be provided on closing debtors as per their ageing bucket:
Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and marketable securities and the availability of funding through an adequate amount of committed credit facilities to meet obligations when due and to close out market positions. Due to the dynamic nature of the underlying businesses, company treasury maintains flexibility in funding by maintaining availability under committed credit lines.
Management monitors rolling forecasts of the company''s liquidity position and cash and cash equivalents on the basis of expected cash flows. This is generally carried out at local level in the operating companies of the company in accordance with practice and limits set by the company. These limits vary by location to take into account the liquidity of the market in which the entity operates. In addition, the company''s liquidity management policy involves projecting cash flows in major currencies and considering the level of liquid assets necessary to meet these, monitoring balance sheet liquidity ratios against internal and external regulatory requirements and maintaining debt financing plans.
(15) Market Risk Management
(a) Foreign Currency Risk
The company operates internationally and is exposed to foreign exchange risk arising from foreign currency transactions, primarily with respect to the US$, EUR. Foreign exchange risk arises from future commercial transactions and recognised assets and liabilities denominated in a currency that is not the company''s functional currency (INR). The risk is measured through a forecast of highly probable foreign currency cash flows.
(b) Cash flow and fair value interest rate risk
The company''s main interest rate risk arises from long-term borrowings with variable rates, which expose the company to cash flow interest rate risk. The Company policy is mainly to maintain its borrowings at fixed rate. During as on 31st March 2018 and as on 31st March 2017, the company''s borrowings at variable rate were denominated in INR.
The company''s fixed rate borrowings are carried at amortised cost. They are therefore not subject to interest rate risk as defined in Ind AS 107, since neither the carrying amount nor the future cash flows will fluctuate because of a change in market interest rates.
The company''s exposure to equity securities price risk arises from investments held by the company and classified in the balance sheet at fair value through profit or loss having carrying amount Rs. 0.58 Lakhs as on 31.03.2018 and Rs 0.51 Lakhs as on 31.03.2017.
(16) Capital Management
The company''s objectives when managing capital are to
a. safeguard their ability to continue as a going concern, so that they can continue to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders, and
b. Maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital.
Consistent with others in the industry, the company monitors capital on the basis of the following gearing ratio:
Net debt (total borrowings net of cash and cash equivalents) divided by Total ''equity'' (as shown in the balance sheet, including non-controlling interests).
Effective Tax rate :
Consequent to reconciliation items shown above, the effective tax is Nil for both the years.
