Mar 31, 2025
Provisions are recognised when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a
past event, it is probable that the Company will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate
can be made of the amount of the obligation. The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the
consideration required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period, taking into account the
risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. When a provision is measured using the cash flows estimated
to settle the present obligation, its'' carrying amount is the present value of those cash flows (when the effect of
the time value of money is material).
Contingent liabilities are disclosed unless the possibility of outflow of resources is remote, 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 reliable estimate of the amount cannot be made.
Contingent assets
A contingent asset is neither recognised nor disclosed in the financial statements.
a) Initial Recognition and Measurement
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the Company becomes a party to the
contractual provisions of the instruments. At initial recognition, financial assets (other than trade receivables)
and financial liabilities are measured at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the
acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities (other than financial assets and financial
liabilities at fair value through profit or loss ("FVTPL")) are added to or deducted from the value of the
financial assets or financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition. Transaction costs directly
attributable to the acquisition of financial assets or financial liabilities at Fair Value through Profit or Loss
are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
All financial assets are initially measured at fair value, plus in the case of financial assets not recorded
at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL), transaction costs that are attributable to the acquisition
of financial assets. Trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component are
measured at transaction price.
After initial recognition all financial assets (other than derivative instruments) meeting the relevant
criteria, are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. The Company
has not designated any financial asset as FVTPL or Fair Value through Other Comprehensive Income
("FVTOCI").
Debt instruments that meet conditions based on purpose of holding assets and contractual terms of
instrument are subsequently measured at amortised cost using effective interest method. All other
financial assets are measured at fair value. Income is recognised on an effective interest basis for debt
instruments other than those financial assets classified as Fair Value Through Profit or Loss. Interest
income is recognised in the statement of profit or loss and is included in the "Other income" line
item.
Impairment of Financial Assets
The Company applies the expected credit loss model for recognising impairment loss on financial
assets measured at amortised cost, trade receivables and other contractual rights to receive cash or
another financial asset.
For trade receivables and any contractual right to receive cash or another financial asset that result
from transactions that are within the scope of Ind AS 115, the Company always measures the loss
allowance at an amount equal to lifetime expected credit losses. Further, for the purpose of measuring
lifetime expected credit loss allowance for trade receivables, the Company has used a practical
expedient as permitted under Ind AS 109. The expected credit loss allowance has been made taking
into the account historical credit loss experience and adjusted for forward looking information.
ii) Financial Liabilities and equity instruments
Classification of debt or equity
Debt or equity instruments issued by the Company are classified as either financial liabilities or
as equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangements and the definitions of
financial liability and equity instrument.
Equity Instruments
An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of an entity
after deducting all of its liabilities. Equity instruments issued by the Company are recognised at the
proceeds received, net of direct issue costs.
All financial liabilities (other than derivative financial instruments) are measured at amortised cost
using effective interest method at the end of the reporting period.
b) Derecognition of Financial Assets and Liabilities
The Company derecognises a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial
asset expire or when the Company transfers the contractual rights to receive the cash flows of the financial
asset in which substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are transferred or
in which the Company neither transfers nor retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of
the financial asset and does not retain control of the financial asset. The Company derecognises a financial
liability (or a part of financial liability) when the contractual obligation is discharged, cancelled or expires.
Whenever Company holds derivative financial instruments such as foreign exchange forward contracts
and principal swap to manage its exposure to foreign currency exchange rate risks. Derivatives are initially
recognised at fair value at the date the contracts are entered into. Subsequent to initial recognition, these
contracts are remeasured at fair value at the end of each reporting period and changes are recognised in
the Statement of Profit and Loss.
''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 in the principal or, in its absence, the
most advantageous market to which the Company has access at that date. The fair value of a liability
reflects its non-performance risk. The Company''s accounting policies and disclosures, in a few cases,
require the measurement of fair values, for both financial and non-financial assets and liabilities. Wherever
available, the Company measures the fair value of an instrument using the quoted price in an active
market for that instrument. A market is regarded as active if transactions for the asset or liability take place
with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. If there is no
quoted price in an active market, then the Company uses valuation techniques that maximise the use of
relevant observable inputs and minimise the use of unobservable inputs. The chosen valuation technique
incorporates all of the factors that market participants would take into account in pricing a transaction.
The Cash Flow Statement is prepared by the indirect method set out in Ind AS 7 on Cash Flow Statements and
presents the cash flows by operating, investing and financing activities of the Company.
For the purpose of the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and short-term deposits
with an original maturity of three months or less, which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value,
net of outstanding bank overdrafts as they are considered an integral part of the Company''s cash management.
The Company identifies primary segments based on the dominant source, nature of risks and returns and the
internal organisation and management structure. The operating segments are the segments for which separate
financial information is available and for which operating profit / loss amounts are evaluated regularly by the
Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance.
The Company identifies secondary segment on the basis of geographical location of the customers.
Compensation to employees for services rendered is measured and accounted for in accordance with Ind AS 19
on Employee Benefits.
Employee Benefits such as salaries, allowances, non-monetary benefits and employee benefits under defined
contribution plans such as provident and other funds, which fall due for payment within a period of twelve
months after rendering service, are charged as expense to profit or loss in the period in which the service is
rendered.
Employee Benefits under defined benefit plans such as gratuity which fall due for payment after completion of
employment are measured by the projected unit credit method, on the basis of actuarial valuations carried out
by third party actuaries at each balance sheet date. The Company''s obligation recognised in the balance sheet
represents the present value of obligations as reduced by the fair value of plan assets.
Defined benefit costs are categorized as follows:
⢠Service cost (including current service cost, past service cost, as well as gains and losses on curtailments
and settlements);
⢠Net interest expense or income; and
⢠Remeasurement
The Company presents the first two components of defined benefit costs in the Statement of Profit and Loss in
the line item ''Employee benefits expense''.
Actuarial Gains and losses, the effect of the changes to the asset ceiling (if applicable) and the return on plan
assets (excluding net interest) are recognised immediately in other comprehensive income. Remeasurement
recognised in other comprehensive income is reflected immediately in retained earnings and is not reclassified
to profit or loss. Past service cost is recognised in profit or loss in the period of a plan amendment. Net interest
is calculated by applying the discount rate at the beginning of the period to the net defined benefit liability or
asset.
The retirement benefit obligation recognised in the balance sheet represents the deficit or surplus in the
Company''s defined benefit plans.
Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition or construction of qualifying assets, which are assets
that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their 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. All other
borrowing costs are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred.
The Company reports basic and diluted Earnings Per Share (EPS) in accordance with Ind AS 33 on Earnings Per
Share. Basic EPS is computed by dividing the net profit or loss for the year attributable to equity shareholders by
the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year.
Diluted EPS is computed by dividing the net profit or loss for the year attributable to equity shareholders by the
weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year as adjusted for the effects of all dilutive
potential equity shares, except where the results are anti-dilutive.
During the year the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) notifies new standards or amendments to the existing
standards under Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules as issued from time to time. For the year ended
March 31, 2025, MCA has notified Ind AS -117 Insurance Contracts and amendments to Ind AS 116- Leases,
relating to sale and leaseback transactions, applicable to the Company w.e.f April 2024. The Company has
reviewed the new pronouncements and based on its evaluation has determined it does not have any significant
impact in its Financial statements.
In application of the Company''s accounting policies, which are described in note 2, the directors of the Company
are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities
that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on various
factors including historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may
differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an on-going basis. Revisions to accounting estimates
are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the
period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.
The following are the key assumptions concerning the future, and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at
the end of the reporting period that may have a risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of
assets and liabilities within the next financial year.
a) Useful lives of property, plant and equipment
The Company reviews the estimated useful lives of property, plant and equipment at the end of each
reporting period. During financial years ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, there were no changes in
useful lives of property, plant and equipment. The Company at the end of each reporting period, based
on external and internal sources of information, assesses indicators and mitigating factors of whether the
plant (cash generating unit) may have suffered an impairment loss. If it is determined that an impairment
loss has been suffered, it is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
b) Impairment of trade receivables
The Company estimates the probability of collection of accounts receivable by analysing historical
payment patterns, customer status, customer creditworthiness and current economic trends. If the financial
condition of a customer deteriorates, additional allowances may be required.
c) Contingencies
In the normal course of business, contingent liabilities may arise from litigations and other claims against
the company. There are certain obligations which management has concluded, which based on all
available facts and circumstances, are not probable of payment or difficult to quantify reliably and such
obligations are treated as contingent liabilities and disclosed in the notes but are not provided for in the
financial statements.
(i) The Board of Directors of the Company have recommended Final Dividend of '' 183.83 lakhs at '' 2.50 per share for the financial year ended
March 31, 2025 to be paid on fully paid Equity Shares. The Final dividend is subject to the approval of shareholders at the ensuing Annual
General Meeting and has not been included as liability in these financial statements.
(ii) Nature of reserves
(a) Capital reserve
Capital Reserves includes :
i) '' 26.06 lakhs of various capital incentive grants received from time to time from Government of Maharashtra on the basis of
investments made in plant and machinery as backward area incentives.
ii) '' 427.50 lakhs of reserves was created in an earlier year consequent to surrender of tenancy rights for redevelopment in exchange
for office premises. The office premises have since been disposed off.
Both the capital reserves are not available for distribution to the shareholders as dividend.
(b) Securities premium
Security premium account is created when shares are issued at premium. The Company can use this reserve in accordance with the
provisions of the Act.
The Company''s principal financial liabilities comprise borrowings, trade payables and other financial liabilities. The main purpose of these
financial liabilities is to support its operations. The Company''s principal financial assets include trade and other receivables and cash that are
derived directly from its operations.
The Company has exposure to the following risks arising from financial instruments:
⢠Credit risk ;
⢠Liquidity risk ; and
⢠Market risk
i. Risk management framework
The Company''s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks, including market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The Company''s
primary risk management focus is to minimize potential adverse effects of market risk on its financial performance. The Company''s
risk management assessment and policies and processes are established to identify and analyse the risks faced by the Company, to set
appropriate risk limits and controls, and to monitor such risks and compliance with the same. Risk assessment and management policies
and processes are reviewed regularly to reflect changes in market conditions and the Company''s activities. The Board of Directors and
the Audit Committee is responsible for overseeing the Company''s risk assessment and management policies and processes.
ii. Credit risk management
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual
obligations, and arises principally from the Company''s receivables from customers. The Company is exposed to credit risk from its
operating activities (primarily trade receivables) and from its financing activities, including deposits with bank and other financial
instruments.
The Company considers the probability of default upon initial recognition of asset and whether there has been a significant increase
in credit risk on an ongoing basis throughout each reporting period. To assess whether there is a significant increase in credit risk the
Company compares the risk of a default occurring on the asset as at the reporting date with the risk of default as at the date of initial
recognition.
Trade and other receivables
The Company''s exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristics of each customer. The demographics of the
customer, including the default risk of the industry and country in which the customer operates, also has an influence on credit risk assessment.
Credit risk is managed through credit approvals, establishing credit limits and continuously monitoring the creditworthiness of customers to
which the Company grants credit terms in the normal course of business. The Company establishes an allowance for doubtful debts and
impairment that represents its estimate of incurred losses in respect of trade and other receivables.
(F) Market risk
Market risk is the risk of loss of future earnings, fair values or future cash flows that may result from adverse changes in market rates and
prices (such as interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates) or in the price of market risk-sensitive instruments as a result of such adverse
changes in market rates and prices. Market risk is attributable to all market risk-sensitive financial instruments, all foreign currency receivables
and payables and all short term and long-term debt. The Company is exposed to market risk primarily related to foreign exchange rate risk,
interest rate risk. Thus, the Company''s exposure to market risk is a function of investing and borrowing activities and revenue generating and
operating activities.
Currency risk
The fluctuation in foreign currency exchange rates may have potential impact on the profit and loss account and equity, where any transaction
references more than one currency or where assets / liabilities are denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of the entity.
Considering the countries and economic environment in which the Company operates, its operations are subject to risks arising from
fluctuations in exchange rates in those countries. The risks primarily relate to fluctuations in US Dollar (USD) and Euro (EUR), against the
functional currencies of the Company.

Financial instruments
(A) Capital management
The Company manages its capital to ensure that it will be able to continue as going concern while maximising the return to stakeholders through the optimisation of the debt and equity balance. The Company is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements.
(C) Fair value measurements
This note provides information about how the Company determines fair values of various financial assets and financial liabilities.
Fair value measurements are categorised into Level 1, 2, or 3 based on the degree to which the inputs to the fair value measurements are observable and the significance of the inputs to the fair value measurement in its entirety, which are described as follows:
Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date; Level 2 inputs are inputs, other than quoted prices included within Level 1, that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and
Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.
Fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities that are not measured at fair value (but fair value disclosures are required)
The Company is of the belief that the carrying amounts of financial assets and financial liabilities recognised in the financial statements approximate their fair values.
The Company''s principal financial liabilities comprise borrowings, trade payables and other financial liabilities. The main purpose of these financial liabilities is to support its operations. The Company''s principal financial assets include trade and other receivables and cash that are derived directly from its operations.
The Company has exposure to the following risks arising from financial instruments:
⢠Credit risk;
⢠Liquidity risk; and
⢠Market risk
i. Risk management framework
The Company''s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks, including market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The Company''s primary risk management focus is to minimize potential adverse effects of market risk on its financial performance. The Company''s risk management assessment and policies and processes are established to identify and analyse the risks faced by the Company, to set appropriate risk limits and controls, and to monitor such risks and compliance with the same. Risk assessment and management policies and processes are reviewed regularly to reflect changes in market conditions and the Company''s activities. The Board of Directors and the Audit Committee is responsible for overseeing the Company''s risk assessment and management policies and processes.
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations, and arises principally from the Company''s receivables from customers. The Company is exposed to credit risk from its operating activities (primarily trade receivables) and from its financing activities, including deposits with bank and other financial instruments.
The Company considers the probability of default upon initial recognition of asset and whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk on an ongoing basis throughout each reporting period. To assess whether there is a significant increase in credit risk the Company compares the risk of a default occurring on the asset as at the reporting date with the risk of default as at the date of initial recognition.
Trade and other receivables
The Company''s exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristics of each customer. The demographics of the customer, including the default risk of the industry and country in which the customer operates, also has an influence on credit risk assessment. Credit risk is managed through credit approvals, establishing credit limits and continuously monitoring the creditworthiness of customers to which the Company grants credit terms in the normal course of business. The Company establishes an allowance for doubtful debts and impairment that represents its estimate of incurred losses in respect of trade and other receivables.
Historical trends of impairment of trade receivables do not reflect any significant credit losses. The Company has further considered internal and external sources of information, specifically having regard to the current macro economic conditions and the global health pandemic to assess the impact on credit losses. Basis the information available as at the date of approval of these financial statements, the Company expects the historical trend of minimal credit losses to continue.
Expected credit loss assessment for customers as at March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023
Exposures to customers outstanding at the end of each reporting period are reviewed by the Company to determine incurred and expected credit losses. Historical trends of impairment of trade receivables do not reflect any significant credit losses. Further, management believes that the unimpaired amounts that are past due by more than 30 days are still collectible in full, based on historical payment behaviour and extensive analysis of customer credit risk.
Cash and cash equivalents
The Company held cash and cash equivalents with credit worthy banks and financial institutions of '' nil (March 31,2023''6.52 lakhs) Other than trade and other receivables, the Company has no other financial assets that are past due.
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they become due. The Company manages its liquidity risk by ensuring, as far as possible, that it will always have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risk to the Company''s reputation.
The Company has access to funds from group companies in the form of long/short term borrowings. The Company also has working capital facilities from banks.
Exposure to liquidity risk
The table below analyses the Company''s financial liabilities into relevant maturity groupings based on their contractual maturities for:
(F) Market risk
Market risk is the risk of loss of future earnings, fair values or future cash flows that may result from adverse changes in market rates and prices (such as interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates) or in the price of market risk-sensitive instruments as a result of such adverse changes in market rates and prices. Market risk is attributable to all market risk-sensitive financial instruments, all foreign currency receivables and payables and all short term and long-term debt. The Company is exposed to market risk primarily related to foreign exchange rate risk, interest rate risk. Thus, the Company''s exposure to market risk is a function of investing and borrowing activities and revenue generating and operating activities.
Currency risk
The fluctuation in foreign currency exchange rates may have potential impact on the profit and loss account and equity, where any transaction references more than one currency or where assets / liabilities are denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of the entity. Considering the countries and economic environment in which the Company operates, its operations are subject to risks arising from fluctuations in exchange rates in those countries. The risks primarily relate to fluctuations in US Dollar (USD) and Euro (EUR), against the functional currencies of the Company.
A 10% strengthening / weakening of the respective foreign currencies with respect to functional currency of Company would result in increase or decrease in profit or loss and equity as shown in table below. This analysis assumes that all other variables, in particular interest rates, remain constant and ignores any impact of forecast sales and purchases. The following analysis has been worked out based on the exposures as of the date of statements of financial position.
The Company''s fixed rate borrowings are carried at amortised cost. They therefore may not be materially subject to interest rate risk as defined in IND AS 107.

1. COMPANY BACKGROUND
Sunshield Chemicals Limited (''the Company'') was incorporated in India on 19th November 1986. The Company is engaged in manufacture and sale of Speciality Chemicals in the domestic and international markets.
2 First-time adoption - Mandatory Exceptions, Optional Exceptions Overall principle
The Company has prepared the opening balance sheet as at 1 April, 2016 (the transition date) as per Ind AS by recognising all assets and liabilities whose recognition is required by Ind AS, not recognising items of assets or liabilities which are not permitted by Ind AS, by reclassifying items from previous GAAP to Ind AS required under Ind AS, and applying Ind AS in measurement of recognised assets and liabilities. However, this principle is subject to the below mentioned optional exemption availed by the Company as per IND AS 101:
Deemed cost for property, plant and equipment, and intangible
The Company has elected to continue with the carrying value of all of its plant and equipment recognised as of 1 April, 2016 (transition date) measured as per the previous GAAP and use that carrying value as its deemed cost as of the transition date.
3 Critical accounting judgments and key sources of estimation uncertainty
In application of the Company''s accounting policies, which are described in note 2, the directors of the Company are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an on-going basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.
3.1 Key sources of estimation uncertainty
The following are the key assumptions concerning the future, and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the end of the reporting period that may have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year.
Useful lives of property, plant and equipment
The Company reviews the estimated useful lives of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets at the end of each reporting period. During financial years ended 31 March 2018, 2017 and 2016, there were no changes in useful lives of property plant and equipment.
The company at the end of each reporting period, based on external and internal sources of information, assesses indicators and mitigating factors of whether the plant (cash generating unit) may have suffered an impairment loss. If it is determined that an impairment loss has been suffered, it is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Impairment of trade receivables
The Company estimates the probability of collection of accounts receivable by analysing historical payment patterns, customer status, customer credit-worthiness and current economic trends. If the financial condition of a customer deteriorates, additional allowances may be required.
Deferred tax
The management of the company estimates whether the company will earn sufficient taxable profits in future periods during which the temporary differences become deductible. The carrying amount of deferred tax is reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.
Contingencies
In the normal course of business, contingent liabilities may arise from litigations and other claims against the company. There are certain obligations which management have concluded based on all available facts and circumstances are not probable of payment or difficult to quantify reliably and such obligations are treated as contingent liabilities and disclosed in the notes but are not provided for in the financial statements.
Notes to the reconciliation:
a. Under previous GAAP actuarial gains and losses were recognised in the statement of profit and loss. Under Ind AS, the return on plan asset and actuarial gains and losses form part of remeasurement of the net defined benefit liability/asset which is recognised in other comprehensive income. This resulted in a reclassification between profit or loss and other comprehensive income.
b. Under previous GAAP, allowance for doubtful debts was made as per management policy based on ageing of debtors. Under Ind AS, the Company applies expected credit loss (ECL) model for recognizing impairement loss on these financial assets on the transaction date. The resultant changes in provision for doubtful debts are recognised in statement of profit and loss. On transition to Ind AS, allowance for doubtful debts is remeasured as per ECL model, which was higher than the provision as per the previous GAAP.
c. The company has taken external commercial borrowing from a related party and has taken principal only swap to hedge against the foreign currency risk related to the ECB. Under Ind AS, the principal swap is required to be measured at fair value at each reporting period and changes therein are recognised in profit and loss.
d. Under IND AS, bank overdrafts which are payable on demand and form an integral part of an entity''s cash management system are included in cash and cash equivalents for the purpose of presentation of statement of cashflows. Whereas under previous GAAP there was no similar guidance and hence, bank overdrafts were considered similar to other borrowings and the movement ther in were reflected in cash flows from financing activities. The effect of these is reflected in cashflows from financing activities and Cash and cash equivalents.
4. The Company has availed the deemed cost exemption in relation to the property plant and equipment on the date of transition and hence the net block carrying amount has been considered as the gross block carrying amount on that date. Refer note below for the gross block value and the accumulated depreciation on April 1, 2016 under the previous GAAE
The average credit period on sale of goods is 60 days. No interest is charged on trade receivables. The above Trade Receivables include amount due from related parties of Rs. 348.26 Lakhs (2017 - Rs. 140.15 Lakhs, 2016 - Rs. 161.38 Lakhs) For movement in allowance for doubtful debt refer Note No : 42
Terms/Rights attached to equity shares
The Company has issued only one class of shares referred to as equity shares having a par value of Rs 10 per share. Accordingly, all equity shares rank equally with regard to dividend and share in the Company''s residual assets. The equity shareholders are entitled to receive dividend as declared from time to time. Each holder of equity share is entitled to one vote per share. In the event of liquidation of the Company the holder of equity shares will be entitled to receive remaining assets of the Company after distribution of all the preferential amounts. The distribution will be in proportion to the number of equity shares held by the shareholders.
(a) Capital reserve
Capital Reserves includes
i) Rs.26.06 lakhs of various capital incentive grants received from time to time from Government of Maharashtra on the basis of investments made in plant and machinery as backward area incentives.
ii) Rs.427.50 lakhs of reserves was created in an earlier year consequent to surrender of tenancy rights for redevelopment in exchange for office premises. The office premises have since been disposed off.
Both the capital reserves are not available for the distribution to shareholders as dividend.
(b) Securities premium reserve
Security premium account is created when shares are issued at premium. Company can use this reserve in accordance with the provisions of the Act.
(c) Retained earnings
The amount that can be distributed by the company as dividends to its equity shareholders is determined considering the requirements of the Act. Thus, the amounts reported above may not be distributable in entirety.
Consequent to the introduction of Goods and Service Tax ("GST") with effect from 1stJuly 2017, Central Excise, Value Added Tax (VAT), etc. have been subsumed into GST. Accordingly, the figures for the period upto 30th June, 2017 are not strictly relatable to those thereafter. The following additional information is being provided to facilitate such understanding:
(e) Excise Matters
The company had received a Show Cause Notice cum Demand from the Assistant Commissioner of Central Excise & Customs demanding excise duty. The demand is raised on account of dispute over excise classification.
(f) In the financial year 15-16, the Company had received a legal notice from a party alleging that the Company has been using their land (approximately 0.43 acres) for the past several years and has claimed mesne profit for it aggregating Rs. 1,166.40 lakhs. The Company had replied to the said notice calling upon the party to cancel / withdraw the notice since there was no merit in the matter raised by the party.
During the current year, the party filed a suit in the district court against the Company relating to the same matter, without mentioning any amount and has requested the Court to grant appropriate relief to it. The management is of the view that there is no merit in the matter raised by the party and the Company has a strong case. Also, since the matter is subjudice, a sufficiently reliable estimate of the possible obligation is not determinable .
Note.
(1) Future ultimate outflow of resources embodying economic benefits in respect of matters stated under 33 (i) above is uncertain as it depends on the final outcome of judgments / decisions on the matters involved.
(2) Management considers that excise, service tax, sales tax and income tax demands received from the respective authorities and demand relating to land case are not tenable against the Company, and therefore no provision for these tax
(3) The Company has reviewed all its pending litigations and proceedings and has adequately provided for, where provisions are required and disclosed as contingent liabilities wherever applicable, in its financial statements. The Company does not expect the outcome of these proceedings to have materially adverse effect on its financial statements.

Financial instruments (A) Capital management
The company manages its capital to ensure that it will be able to continue as going concern while maximising the return to stakeholders through the optimisation of the debt and equity balance. The company is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements.
(C) Fair value measurements
This note provides information about how the group determines fair values of various financial assets and financial liabilities. Fair value measurements are categorised into Level 1, 2, or 3 based on the degree to which the inputs to the fair value measurements are observable and the significance of the inputs to the fair value measurement in its entirety, which are described as follows:
Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date;
Level 2 inputs are inputs, other than quoted prices included within Level 1, that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and
Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.
Fair value of the Company''s financial liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis.
Some of the Company''s financial liabilities are measured at fair value at the end of each reporting period. The following table gives information about how their fair values are determined (in particular, the valuation technique(s) and inputs used).
Fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities that are not measured at fair value (but fair value disclosures are required)
The Company is of the belief that the carrying amounts of financial assets and financial liabilities recognised in the financial statements approximate their fair values.
(D) Financial risk management objectives
The Company''s principal financial liabilities comprise borrowings, trade payables, Other financial liabilities (including derivative liability). The main purpose of these financial liabilities is to support its operations. The Company''s principal financial assets include trade and other receivables and cash that are derived directly from its operations.
The Company has exposure to the following risks arising from financial instruments:
- Credit risk ;
- Liquidity risk ; and
- Market risk
i . Risk management framework
The Company''s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks, including market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The Company''s primary risk management focus is to minimize potential adverse effects of market risk on its financial performance. The Company''s risk management assessment and policies and processes are established to identify and analyze the risks faced by the Company, to set appropriate risk limits and controls, and to monitor such risks and compliance with the same. Risk assessment and management policies and processes are reviewed regularly to reflect changes in market conditions and the Company''s activities. The Board of and the Audit Committee is responsible for overseeing the Company''s risk assessment and management policies and processes.
ii. Credit risk management
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations, and arises principally from the Company''s receivables from customers. The Company''s exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristics of each customer. The demographics of the customer, including the default risk of the industry and country in which the customer operates, also has an influence on credit risk assessment. Credit risk is managed through credit approvals, establishing credit limits and continuously monitoring the creditworthiness of customers to which the Company grants credit terms in the normal course of business. The Company establishes an allowance for doubtful debts and impairment that represents its estimate of incurred losses in respect of trade and other receivables.
Trade and other receivables
The Company''s exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristics of each customer. The demographics of the customer, including the default risk of the industry and country in which the customer operates, also has an influence on credit risk assessment. Credit risk is managed through credit approvals, establishing credit limits and continuously monitoring the creditworthiness of customers to which the Company grants credit terms in the normal course of business.
Expected credit loss assessment for customers as at 1 April 2016 , 31 March, 2017 and 31 March, 2018
Exposures to customers outstanding at the end of each reporting period are reviewed by the Company to determine incurred and expected credit losses. Historical trends of impairment of trade receivables do not reflect any significant credit losses. Given that the macro economic indicators affecting customers of the Company have not undergone any substantial change, the Company expects the historical trend of minimal credit losses to continue. Further, management believes that the unimpaired amounts that are past due by more than 30 days are still collectible in full, based on historical payment behaviour and extensive analysis of customer credit risk. The impairment loss at March 31, 2018 related to customers who have defaulted on their payments to the Company and are not expected to be able to pay their outstanding balances, mainly due to economic circumstances.
Cash and cash equivalents
The Company held cash and cash equivalents with credit worthy banks and financial institustions of Rs. 263.21 lakhs as at 31 March 2018. (Rs. 124.02 lakhs as at 31 March 2017; Rs.212.16 lakhs as at 31 March 2016).
Derivatives
The derivatives are entered into principal only swap with credit worthy banks and financial institution counterparties.
The credit worthiness of such banks and financial institutions is evaluated by the management on an ongoing basis and is considered to be good.
Other than trade and other receivables, the Company has no other financial assets that are past due and impaired.
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they become due. The Company manages its liquidity risk by ensuring, as far as possible, that it will always have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risk to the Company''s reputation. The Company has obtained term loan from bank which is repayable in full in 2018. Furthermore, the Company has access to funds from related party as external commercial borrowings.
Exposure to liquidity risk
The table below analyses the Company''s financial liabilities into relevant maturity groupings based on their contractual maturities for:
* all non derivative financial liabilities
* Derivative financial instruments for which the contractual maturites are essential for understanding the timing of the cash flows.
(F) Market risk
Market risk is the risk of loss of future earnings, fair values or future cash flows that may result from adverse changes in market rates and prices (such as interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates) or in the price of market risk-sensitive instruments as a result of such adverse changes in market rates and prices. Market risk is attributable to all market risk-sensitive financial instruments, all foreign currency receivables and payables and all short term and long-term debt. The Company is exposed to market risk primarily related to foreign exchange rate risk, interest rate risk. Thus, the Company''s exposure to market risk is a function of investing and borrowing activities and revenue generating and operating activities in foreign currencies.
Currency risk
The fluctuation in foreign currency exchange rates may have potential impact on the profit and loss account and equity, where any transaction references more than one currency or where assets/liabilities are denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of the entity.
Considering the countries and economic environment in which the Company operates, its operations are subject to risks arising from fluctuations in exchange rates in those countries. The risks primarily relate to fluctuations in U.S. dollar and Euro, against the respective functional currencies of the Company.
The Company, as per its risk management policy, uses foreign exchange and other derivative instruments primarily to hedge foreign exchange exposure. The Company does not use derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.
Sensitivity analysis
A 10% strenghtening / weakening of the respective foreign currencies with respect to functional currency of Company would result in increase or decrease in profit or loss and equity as shown in table below. This analysis assumes that all other variables, in particular interest rates, remain constant and ignores any impact of forecast sales and purchases. The following analysis has been worked out based on the exposures as of the date of statements of financial position.
Interest rate sensitivity - fixed rate instruments
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 flow will fluctuate because of a change in market interest rates.
Interest rate sensitivity - variable rate instruments
A reasonably possible change of 100 basis points in interest rates at the reporting date would have increased / decreased equity and profit or loss by amounts shown below. This analyses assumes that all other variables, in particular, foreign currency exchange rates, remain constant. This calculation also assumes that the change occurs at the balance sheet date and has been calculated based on risk exposures outstanding as at that date.
Note 10 Approval of financial statements
The financial statements were approved for issue by the board of directors on 28 May 2018.
Mar 31, 2016
(d) Terms/Rights attached to equity shares
The Company has only one class of shares referred to as equity shares having a par value of'' 10 per share. Accordingly, all equity shares rank equally with regard to dividend and share in the Company''s residual assets. The equity shareholders are entitled to receive dividend as declared from time to time. Each holder of equity share is entitled to one vote per share. In the event of liquidation of the Company the holder of equity shares will be entitled to receive remaining assets of the Company after distribution of all the preferential amounts. The distribution will be in proportion to the number of equity shares held by the shareholders.
