A provision is recognised in the financial statementswhere there exists a present obligation as a resultof a past event, the amount of which can be reliablyestimated, and it is probable that an outflow ofresources would be necessitated in order to settle theobligation. If the effect of the time value of money ismaterial, provisions are discounted using a currentpre-tax rate that reflects, when appropriate, the risksspecific to the liability. When discounting is used, theincrease in the provision due to the passage of time isrecognised as a finance cost. Provisions are reviewedat each balance sheet date and adjusted to reflectthe current best estimates. Contingent liabilitiesare not recognised but are disclosed in the notesunless the outflow of resources is considered to beremote. Contingent assets are neither recognisednor disclosed in the financial statements.
Equity shares are classified as equity. Incrementalcosts directly attributable to the issue of new shares/buyback of shares are shown in equity as a deduction,net of tax, from the proceeds.
Retained earnings include current and prior periodretained profits. All transactions with owners of theCompany are recorded separately within equity.
Dividend payable to equity shareholders are includedin other current financial liabilities when the dividendshave been approved in a general meeting prior to thereporting date.
Basic earnings or loss per share are calculatedby dividing the net profit or loss for the periodattributable to equity shareholders by the weightedaverage number of equity shares outstanding duringthe period. The weighted average number of equityshares outstanding during the period is adjustedfor events such as bonus issue, bonus element in arights issue, buyback, share split, and reverse sharesplit (consolidation of shares) that have changedthe number of equity shares outstanding, without acorresponding change in resources.
For the purpose of calculating diluted earnings orloss per share, the net profit or loss for the periodattributable to equity shareholders and the weightedaverage number of shares outstanding during the
period are adjusted for the effects of all dilutivepotential equity shares.
The Company measures financial instruments suchas investments in mutual funds, investment incertain equity shares etc. at fair value at each balancesheet date.
Fair value is the price that would be received tosell an asset or paid to transfer a liability at themeasurement date.
All assets and liabilities for which fair value ismeasured or disclosed in the financial statements arecategorised within the fair value hierarchy, describedas follows, based on the lowest level input that issignificant to the fair value measurement as a whole:
» Level 1 — Quoted (unadjusted) market prices inactive markets for identical assets or liabilities
» Level 2 — Valuation techniques for which thelowest level input that is significant to the fair valuemeasurement is directly or indirectly observable
» Level 3 — Valuation techniques for which thelowest level input that is significant to the fair valuemeasurement is unobservable.
For the purpose of fair value disclosures, theCompany has determined classes of assets andliabilities on the basis of the nature, characteristicsand risks of the asset or liability and the level of thefair value hierarchy as explained above.
a. Initial recognition and measurement
All financial assets are recognised initially atfair value plus, in case of financial assets notrecorded at fair value through profit or loss,transaction costs that are attributable to theacquisition of the financial asset, which are notat fair value through profit and loss, are added tofair value on initial recognition. Transaction costsof financial assets carried at fair value throughprofit or loss are expensed in statement of profitand loss. However, trade receivables that do notcontain a significant financing component aremeasured at transaction price.
b. Subsequent measurement
(i) Financial assets carried at amortised cost
A financial asset is subsequently measured atamortised cost if it is held within a businessmodel whose objective is to hold the asset inorder to collect contractual cash flows and the
contractual terms of the financial asset giverise on specified dates to cash flows that aresolely payments of principal and interest on theprincipal amount outstanding.
(ii) Financial assets at fair value through othercomprehensive income (FVTOCI)
A financial asset is subsequently measured at fairvalue through other comprehensive income if itis held within a business model whose objectiveis achieved by both collecting contractualcash flows and selling financial assets and thecontractual terms of the financial asset giverise on specified dates to cash flows that aresolely payments of principal and interest on theprincipal amount outstanding.
(iii) Financial assets at fair value through profit orloss (FVTPL)
A financial asset which is not classified in anyof the above categories are subsequently fairvalued through statement of profit and loss.
c. Impairment of financial assets
(i) The Company assesses on a forward lookingbasis the expected credit losses (ECL) associatedwith its assets measured at amortised costand assets measured at fair value throughother comprehensive income. The impairmentmethodology applied depends on whether therehas been a significant increase in credit risk.Note 45 details how the Company determineswhether there has been a significant increase incredit risk.
(ii) Investments in subsidiaries, associates andjoint ventures are carried at cost/deemed costapplied on transition to Ind AS, less accumulatedimpairment losses, if any. Where an indicationof impairment exists, the carrying amount ofinvestment is assessed and an impairmentprovision is recognised, if required immediatelyto its recoverable amount, being the higherof value in use or fair value less costs to sell.On disposal of such investments, differencebetween the net disposal proceeds and carryingamount is recognised in the statement of profitand loss.
d. De-recognition of financial assets
A financial asset is derecognised when:
- The Company has transferred the right toreceive cash flows from the financial assets or
- Retains the contractual rights to receivethe cash flows of the financial assets, butassumes a contractual obligation to pay thecash flows to one or more recipients.
Where the entity transfers the financial asset, itevaluates the extent to which it retains the riskand rewards of the ownership of the financialassets. If the entity transfers substantiallyall the risks and rewards of ownership of thefinancial asset, the entity shall derecognisethe financial asset and recognise separately asassets or liabilities any rights and obligationscreated or retained in the transfer. If the entityretains substantially all the risks and rewards ofownership of the financial asset, the entity shallcontinue to recognise the financial asset.
Where the entity has neither transferred afinancial asset nor retains substantially all risksand rewards of the ownership of the financialasset, the financial asset is derecognised if theCompany has not retained control of the financialassets. Where the Company retains controlof the financial assets, the asset is continuedto be recognised to the extent of continuinginvolvement in the financial asset.
II. Financial liabilities
a. Initial recognition and subsequentmeasurement
All financial liabilities are recognized initiallyat fair value and in case of borrowings andpayables, net of directly attributable cost.
Financial liabilities are subsequently carriedat amortized cost using the effective interestmethod. For trade and other payables maturingwithin one year from the balance sheet date,the carrying amounts approximate fair valuedue to the short maturity of these instruments.Changes in the amortised value of liability arerecorded as finance cost.
III. Fair value of financial instruments
In determining the fair value of its financialinstruments, the Company uses a variety ofmethods and assumptions that are basedon market conditions and risks existing ateach reporting date. The methods used todetermine fair value include discounted cashflow analysis, available quoted market prices. Allmethods of assessing fair value result in generalapproximation of value, and such value may varyfrom actual realization on future date.
IV. Offsetting of financial instruments
Financial assets and financial liabilities are offsetand the net amount is reported in the balancesheet if there is a currently enforceable legal rightto offset the recognised amounts and there is anintention to settle on a net basis, to realise theassets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.
The Company enters into a variety of derivativefinancial instruments to manage its exposure tointerest rate and foreign exchange rate risks, includingforeign exchange forward contracts, interest rateswaps and cross currency swaps. Further detailsof derivative financial instruments are disclosed innote 45.
Derivatives are initially recognised at fair value at thedate the derivative contracts are entered into andare subsequently re-measured to their fair value atthe end of each reporting period. The resulting gainor loss is recognised in statement of profit and lossimmediately unless the derivative is designated andeffective as a hedging instrument, in which eventthe timing of the recognition in the statement ofprofit and loss depends on the nature of the hedgingrelationship and the nature of the hedged item.
Operating segments are reported in a mannerconsistent with the internal reporting provided tothe chief operating decision maker. The Companyhas mainly two operating/reportable segments:Packaging Products segment and InvestmentProperty segment. In identifying these operatingsegments, management generally follows thecompany's service lines representing its mainproducts and services. Each of these operatingsegments is managed separately as each requiresdifferent technologies, marketing approaches andother resources.
All inter-segment transfers are carried out at arm'slength prices based on prices charged to unrelatedcustomers in standalone sales of identical goodsor services.
For management purposes, the Company usesthe same measurement policies as those used inits financial statements. In addition, unallocatedassets which are not directly attributable to thebusiness activities of any operating segment arenot allocated to a segment.
The preparation of the Company's financialstatements requires management to makejudgments, estimates and assumptions that affectthe reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assetsand liabilities, and the accompanying disclosures, andthe disclosure of contingent liabilities. Uncertaintyabout these assumptions and estimates could resultin outcomes that require a material adjustment tothe carrying amount of assets or liabilities affected infuture periods.
Non-current assets or disposal groups comprisingof assets and liabilities are classified as 'held for sale'when all the following criteria are met:
(i) Decision has been made to sell,
(ii) The assets are available for immediate sale in itspresent condition,
(iii) The assets are being actively marketed and
(iv) Sale has been agreed or is expected to beconcluded within 12 months of the balancesheet date.
Subsequently, such non-current assets and disposalgroups classified as 'held for sale' are measured atthe lower of its carrying value and fair value less coststo sell.
Non-current assets held for sale are not depreciatedor amortised.
Discontinued operation is a component of theCompany that has been disposed of or classified asheld for sale.
The key assumptions concerning the future and otherkey sources of estimation uncertainty at the reportingdate, that have a significant risk of causing a materialadjustment to the carrying amounts of assets andliabilities within the next financial year, are describedbelow. The Company based its assumptions andestimates on parameters available when the financialstatements were prepared. Existing circumstancesand assumptions about future developments,however, may change due to market changes orcircumstances arising that are beyond the controlof the Company. Such changes are reflected in theassumptions when they occur.
The cost of the defined benefit plan and otherpost-employment benefits and the presentvalue of such obligation are determined usingactuarial valuations. An actuarial valuationinvolves making various assumptions that maydiffer from actual developments in the future.These include the determination of the discountrate, future salary increases, mortality rates andattrition rate. Due to the complexities involvedin the valuation and its long-term nature, adefined benefit obligation is highly sensitive tochanges in these assumptions. All assumptionsare reviewed at each reporting date.
Management judgment is required for thecalculation of provision for income - taxes anddeferred tax assets and liabilities. The Companyreviews at each balance sheet date the carryingamount of deferred tax assets. The factors usedin estimates may differ from actual outcomewhich could lead to adjustment to the amountsreported in the financial statements.
Management reviews its estimate of the usefullives of depreciable assets at each reportingdate, based on the expected utility of the assets.Uncertainties in these estimates relate totechnological obsolescence that may change theutility of certain property, plant and equipment.
Trade receivables do not carry any interest andare stated at their normal value as reducedby appropriate allowances for estimatedirrecoverable amounts. Individual tradereceivables are written off when managementdeems them not to be collectible. Impairment isrecognised based on the expected credit losses,which are the present value of the cash shortfallover the expected life of the financial assets.
Management uses valuation techniques todetermine the fair value of financial instruments(where active market quotes are not available) andnon-financial assets. This involves developingestimates and assumptions consistent with
how market participants would price theinstrument. Management bases its assumptionson observable data as far as possible but this isnot always available. In that case managementuses the best information available. Estimatedfair values may vary from the actual prices thatwould be achieved in an arm's length transactionat the reporting date (refer note 46).
Goodwill is tested for impairment on an annualbasis and whenever there is an indication thatthe recoverable amount of a cash generatingunit is less than its carrying amount based on anumber of factors including operating results,business plans, future cash flows and economicconditions. The recoverable amount of cashgenerating units is determined based on higherof value-in-use and fair value less cost to sell.The goodwill impairment test is performed atthe level of the cash-generating unit or groupsof cash-generating units which are benefittingfrom the synergies of the acquisition and whichrepresents the lowest level at which goodwill ismonitored for internal management purposes.
Market related information and estimates areused to determine the recoverable amount. Keyassumptions on which management has basedits determination of recoverable amount includeestimated long term growth rates, weightedaverage cost of capital and estimated operatingmargins. Cash flow projections take into accountpast experience and represent management'sbest estimate about future developments.
(c) Terms and rights attached to equity shares
The Company has issued only one class of equity shares having par value of H 2 per share. Each holder of equityshare is entitled to one vote per share.

The Company evaluates the concentration of risk with respect to trade receivables as low, as its customersare located at several jurisdiction and industries and operate in large independent markets. The Company also takesadvances and security deposits from customers which mitigate the credit risk to an extent.
The average credit period taken on sales of goods is 30 to 90 days. Generally, no interest has been charged onthe receivables.
