3.15 Provisions
Provisions are recognised when the Companyhas a present obligation (legal or constructive)as a result of a past event, it is probable that theCompany will be required to settle the obligation,and a reliable estimate can be made of the amountof the obligation.
The amount recognised as a provision is thebest estimate of the consideration required tosettle the present obligation at the end of thereporting period, taking into account the risksand uncertainties surrounding the obligation.When a provision is measured using the cashflows estimated to settle the present obligation,its carrying amount is the present value of thosecash flows (when the effect of the time value ofmoney is material).
Warranties
The estimated liability for product warranties isrecorded when products are sold. These estimatesare established using historical information on thenature, frequency and average cost of warrantyclaims and management estimates regardingpossible future incidence based on correctiveactions on product failures. The timing of outflowswill vary as and when warranty claim will arise.
The initial estimate of warranty-related costs isrevised annually.
Onerous contracts
An onerous contract is a contract under whichthe unavoidable costs (i.e., the costs that theCompany cannot avoid because it has thecontract) of meeting the obligations under thecontract exceed the economic benefits expectedto be received under it. The unavoidable costsunder a contract reflect the least net cost ofexiting from the contract, which is the lower ofthe cost of fulfilling it and any compensation orpenalties arising from failure to fulfil it. The cost offulfilling a contract comprises the costs that relatedirectly to the contract (i.e., both incrementalcosts and an allocation of costs directly relatedto contract activities). If the Company has acontract that is onerous, the present obligationunder the contract is recognised and measuredas a provision.
Contingent liabilities
A disclosure for a contingent liability is madewhen there is a possible obligation or a presentobligation that may, but probably will not, requirean outflow of resources. When the likelihood ofoutflow of resources is remote, no provision ordisclosure is made.
Provisions, contingent liabilities are reviewed ateach Balance Sheet date.
3.16 Financial instruments
A financial instrument is any contract thatgives rise to a financial asset of one entityand a financial liability or equity instrument ofanother entity.
Financial assets and financial liabilities arerecognised when the Company becomes a party tothe contractual provisions of the instruments.
Financial assets and financial liabilities are initiallymeasured at fair value except Trade receivablesthat do not contain a significant financingcomponent or for which the Company has appliedthe practical expedient are measured at thetransaction price determined under Ind AS 115.Transaction costs that are directly attributableto the acquisition or issue of financial assets andfinancial liabilities (other than financial assets andfinancial liabilities at fair value through profit orloss) are added to or deducted from the fair valueof the financial assets or financial liabilities, as
appropriate, on initial recognition. Transactioncosts directly attributable to the acquisition offinancial assets or financial liabilities at fair valuethrough profit or loss are recognised immediatelyin profit or loss.
3.17 Financial assets
All recognised financial assets are subsequentlymeasured in their entirety at either amortised costor fair value through profit and loss or fair valuethrough other comprehensive income, dependingon the classification of the financial assets.
Classification and Measurement offinancial assets
Debt instruments that meet the followingconditions are subsequently measured atamortised cost (except for debt instruments thatare designated at fair value through profit or losson initial recognition):
• the asset is held within a business modelwhose objective is to hold assets in order tocollect contractual cash flows; and
• the contractual terms of the instrument giverise on specified dates to cash flows that aresolely payments of principal and interest(SPPI) on the principal amount outstanding.
Debt instruments that meet the followingconditions are subsequently measured at fairvalue through other comprehensive income("FVTOCI") (except for debt instruments that aredesignated at fair value through profit or loss oninitial recognition):
• the asset is held within a business modelwhose objective is achieved both bycollecting contractual cash flows and sellingfinancial assets; and
• the contractual terms of the instrument giverise on specified dates to cash flows that aresolely payments of principal and interest onthe principal amount outstanding.
Interest income and impairment losses orreversals are recognised in the profit or loss andcomputed in the same manner as for financialassets measured at amortised cost. The remainingfair value changes are recognised in OCI. Uponde-recognition, the cumulative fair value changes
recognised in OCI is reclassified from the equity toprofit or loss.
All other financial assets are subsequentlymeasured at fair value through profit or loss.
Effective interest method
The effective interest method is a methodof calculating the amortised cost of a debtinstrument and of allocating interest incomeover the relevant period. The effective interestrate is the rate that exactly discounts estimatedfuture cash receipts (including all fees and pointspaid or received that form an integral part of theeffective interest rate, transaction costs and otherpremiums or discounts) through the expectedlife of the debt instrument, or, where appropriate,a shorter period, to the net carrying amount oninitial recognition.
Income is recognised on an effective interest basisfor debt instruments other than those financialassets classified at FVTPL. Interest income isrecognised in profit or loss and is included in the"Other income" line item.
Financial assets at fair value through profitor loss (FVTPL)
Investments in equity instruments are classified atFVTPL, unless the Company irrevocably elects oninitial recognition to present subsequent changesin fair value in other comprehensive income forinvestments in equity instruments which are notheld for trading.
Debt instruments that do not meet the amortisedcost criteria or FVTOCI criteria are measured atFVTPL. In addition, debt instruments that meet theamortised cost criteria or the FVTOCI criteria butare designated at FVTPL are measured at FVTPL.
A financial asset that meets the amortised costcriteria or debt instruments that meet the FVTOCIcriteria may be designated at FVTPL uponinitial recognition if such designation eliminatesor significantly reduces a measurement orrecognition inconsistency that would arise frommeasuring assets or liabilities or recognising thegains and losses on them on different bases.
Financial assets at FVTPL are measured at fairvalue at the end of each reporting period, with
any gains or losses arising on re-measurementrecognised in profit or loss. The net gain or lossrecognised in profit or loss incorporates anydividend or interest earned on the financialasset and is included in the 'Other income' lineitem. Dividend on financial assets at FVTPL isrecognised when the Company's right to receivethe dividends is established, it is probable thatthe economic benefits associated with thedividend will flow to the entity, the dividend doesnot represent a recovery of part of cost of theinvestment and the amount of dividend can bemeasured reliably.
Financial assets designated at fair valuethrough OCI (equity instruments)
Upon initial recognition, the Company can electto classify irrevocably its equity investmentsas equity instruments designated at fair valuethrough OCI when they meet the definition ofequity under Ind AS 32 Financial Instruments:Presentation and are not held for trading. Theclassification is determined on an instrument-by¬instrument basis.
Gains and losses on these financial assets arenever recycled to profit or loss. Dividends arerecognised as other income in the statement ofprofit and loss when the right of payment has beenestablished, except when the Company benefitsfrom such proceeds as a recovery of part of thecost of the financial asset, in which case, suchgains are recorded in OCI. Equity instrumentsdesignated at fair value through OCI are notsubject to impairment assessment.
Impairment of financial assets
The Company applies the expected creditloss model for recognising impairment loss onfinancial assets measured at amortised cost,debt instruments at FVTOCI, trade receivables,other contractual rights to receive cash or otherfinancial asset, and financial guarantees notdesignated at FVTPL.
The Company measures the loss allowance fora financial instrument at an amount equal tothe lifetime expected credit losses if the creditrisk on that financial instrument has increasedsignificantly since initial recognition.
Further, for the purpose of measuring lifetimeexpected credit loss allowance for tradereceivables, the Company has used a practicalexpedient as permitted under Ind AS 109. Thisexpected credit loss allowance is computedbased on historical credit loss experience andadjustments for forward looking information.
Derecognition of financial assets
The Company de-recognises a financial assetwhen the contractual rights to the cash flows fromthe asset expire, or when it transfers the financialasset and substantially all the risks and rewards ofownership of the asset to another party.
3.18 Financial liabilities and equity instruments
Classification as financial liability or equity
Debt and equity instruments issued by Companyare classified as either financial liabilities or asequity in accordance with the substance of thecontractual arrangements and the definitions of afinancial liability and an equity instrument.
Equity instruments
An equity instrument is any contract thatevidences a residual interest in the assets of anentity after deducting all of its liabilities.
Financial liabilities
Financial liabilities at fair value through profit orloss include financial liabilities held for tradingand financial liabilities designated upon initialrecognition as at fair value through profit orloss. Financial liabilities are classified as held fortrading if they are incurred for the purpose ofrepurchasing in the near term.
Gains or losses on liabilities held for trading arerecognised in the profit or loss.
Financial liabilities designated upon initialrecognition at fair value through profit or lossare designated as such at the initial date ofrecognition, and only if the criteria in Ind AS 109are satisfied. For liabilities designated as FVTPL,fair value gains / losses attributable to changesin own credit risk are recognized in the othercomprehensive income. These gains/ loss are notsubsequently transferred to P&L. However, theCompany may transfer the cumulative gain orloss within equity. All other changes in fair value
of such liability are recognised in the statement ofprofit or loss.
The carrying amounts of financial liabilities thatare subsequently measured at amortised costare determined based on the effective interestmethod. Interest expense that is not capitalised aspart of cost of an asset is included in the 'Financecosts' line item.
The effective interest method is a method ofcalculating the amortised cost of a financialliability and of allocating interest expense overthe relevant period. The effective interest rate isthe rate that exactly discounts estimated futurecash payments (including all fees and pointspaid or received that form an integral part of theeffective interest rate, transaction costs and otherpremiums or discounts) through the expected lifeof the financial liability.
All financial liabilities are subsequently measuredat amortised cost using the effective interestmethod or at FVTPL.
Derecognition of financial liabilities
The Company de-recognises financial liabilitieswhen, and only when, the Company's obligationsare discharged, cancelled or have expired.
Reclassification of financial assetsand liabilities
The Company determines classification offinancial assets and liabilities on initial recognition.After initial recognition, no reclassification is madefor financial assets which are equity instrumentsand financial liabilities. For financial assets whichare debt instruments, a reclassification is madeonly if there is a change in the business modelfor managing those assets. Changes to thebusiness model are expected to be infrequent.
The Company's senior management determineschange in the business model as a result ofexternal or internal changes which are significantto the Company's operations.
3.19 Derivative Instruments
Initial recognition and subsequentmeasurement
The Company uses derivative financialinstruments, such as forward currency contractsto hedge its foreign currency risks. Such derivative
financial instruments are initially recognised at fairvalue on the date on which a derivative contractis entered into and are subsequently re-measuredat fair value. Derivatives are carried as financialassets when the fair value is positive and asfinancial liabilities when the fair value is negative.
Any gains or losses arising from changes in thefair value of derivatives are taken directly to profitor loss, except for the effective portion of cashflow hedges, which is recognised in OCI and laterreclassified to profit or loss when the hedge itemaffects profit or loss or treated as basis adjustmentif a hedged forecast transaction subsequentlyresults in the recognition of a non-financial assetor non-financial liability.
3.20 Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalent in the balance sheetcomprise cash at banks and on hand and short¬term deposits with an original maturity of threemonths or less, that are readily convertible to aknown amount of cash and which are subject to aninsignificant risk of changes in value.
For the purpose of the standalone statement ofcash flows, cash and cash equivalents consist ofcash and short-term deposits, as defined above,net of outstanding bank overdrafts as they areconsidered an integral part of the Company'scash management.
3.21 Dividend
The Company recognises a liability to makedividend distributions to equity holders of theCompany when the distribution is authorised andthe distribution is no longer at the discretion ofthe Company. As per the corporate laws in Indiaa distribution is authorised when it is approved bythe shareholders, However, Board of Directors ofa Company may declare interim dividend duringany financial year out of the surplus in statementof profit and loss and out of the profits of thefinancial year in which such interim dividend issought to be declared. A corresponding amount isrecognised directly in other equity.
3.22 Earnings per share
Basic earnings per share is computed bydividing the profit after tax by the weightedaverage number of equity shares outstandingduring the year.
Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividingthe profit after tax as adjusted for dividend,interest and other charges to expense or incomerelating to the dilutive potential equity shares, bythe weighted average number of equity sharesconsidered for deriving basic earnings per shareand the weighted average number of equity shareswhich could have been issued on the conversion ofall dilutive potential equity shares.
3.23 Investment in subsidiaries and jointventures
A subsidiary is an entity that is controlled byanother entity. An associate is an entity overwhich the Company has significant influence.Significant influence is the power to participatein the financial and operating policy decisions ofthe investee but is not control or joint control overthose policies.
A joint venture is a type of joint arrangementwhereby the parties that have joint control of thearrangement have rights to the net assets of thejoint venture. Joint control is the contractuallyagreed sharing of control of an arrangement,which exists only when decisions about therelevant activities require unanimous consent ofthe parties sharing control.
The Company's investments in its subsidiariesand joint ventures are accounted at costless impairment.
Impairment of investments
The Company reviews its carrying value ofinvestments carried at cost annually, or morefrequently when there is indication for impairment.If the recoverable amount is less than its carryingamount, the impairment loss is recorded in theStatement of Profit and Loss.
When an impairment loss subsequentlyreverses, the carrying amount of the Investmentis increased to the revised estimate of itsrecoverable amount, so that the increasedcarrying amount does not exceed the cost ofthe Investment. A reversal of an impairmentloss is recognised immediately in Statement ofProfit or Loss.
3.24 Events after the reporting period
If the Company receives information after thereporting period, but prior to the date of approved
for issue, about conditions that existed at theend of the reporting period, it will assess whetherthe information affects the amounts that itrecognises in its standalone financial statements.The Company will adjust the amounts recognisedin its financial statements to reflect any adjustingevents after the reporting period and update thedisclosures that relate to those conditions in lightof the new information. For non-adjusting eventsafter the reporting period, the Company will notchange the amounts recognised in its standalonefinancial statements, but will disclose the natureof the non-adjusting event and an estimate ofits financial effect, or a statement that such anestimate cannot be made, if applicable.
3.25 New and amended standards
The Company applied for the first-time certainstandards and amendments, which are effectivefor annual periods beginning on or after 1 April2024. The Company has not early adopted anystandard, interpretation or amendment that hasbeen issued but is not yet effective.
(i) Ind AS 117 Insurance Contracts
The Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA)notified the Ind AS 117, Insurance Contracts,vide notification dated 12 August 2024,under the Companies (Indian AccountingStandards) Amendment Rules, 2024, whichis effective from annual reporting periodsbeginning on or after 1 April 2024.
Ind AS 117 Insurance Contracts is acomprehensive new accounting standard forinsurance contracts covering recognition andmeasurement, presentation and disclosure.Ind AS 117 replaces Ind AS 104 InsuranceContracts. Ind AS 117 applies to all types ofinsurance contracts, regardless of the type ofentities that issue them as well as to certainguarantees and financial instruments withdiscretionary participation features; a few
scope exceptions will apply. Ind AS 117 isbased on a general model, supplemented by:
• A specific adaptation for contractswith direct participation features (thevariable fee approach)
• A simplified approach (the premiumallocation approach) mainly for short-duration contracts
The application of Ind AS 117 does nothave material impact on the Company'sseparate financial statements as theCompany has not entered any contracts inthe nature of insurance contracts coveredunder Ind AS 117.
(ii) Amendments to Ind AS 116 Leases - LeaseLiability in a Sale and Leaseback
The MCA notified the Companies (IndianAccounting Standards) Second AmendmentRules, 2024, which amend Ind AS 116,Leases, with respect to Lease Liability in aSale and Leaseback.
The amendment specifies the requirementsthat a seller-lessee uses in measuring thelease liability arising in a sale and leasebacktransaction, to ensure the seller-lessee doesnot recognise any amount of the gain or lossthat relates to the right of use it retains.
The amendment is effective for annualreporting periods beginning on orafter 1 April 2024 and must be appliedretrospectively to sale and leasebacktransactions entered into after the date ofinitial application of Ind AS 116.
The amendments do not have a materialimpact on the Company's financialstatements since the Company hasnot entered into any sale and lease¬back transactions.
