Provisions are recognized when the Company has a present obligation (legalor constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that outflow ofeconomic benefits will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliableestimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.
If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discountedusing a current pre-tax rate that reflects, when appropriate, the risks specificto the liability. When discounting is used, the increase in the provision dueto the passage of time is recognized as a finance cost.
The amount recognized as a provision is the best estimate of theconsideration required to settle the present obligation at reporting date,taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation.
When some or all of the economic benefits required to settle a provisionare expected to be recovered from a third party, a receivable is recognizedas an asset if it is virtually certain that reimbursement will be received andthe amount of the receivable can be measured reliably. The expense relatingto a provision is presented net of any reimbursement in the statement ofprofit and loss.
Contingent liability is a possible obligation that arises from past eventsand whose existence will be confirmed only by the occurrence or non¬occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within thecontrol of the company or a present obligation that arises from past eventsbut is not recognised because
i) it is not probable that an outflow of resources embodying economicbenefits will be required to settle the obligation; or
ii) the amount of the obligation cannot be measured with sufficientreliability.
Contingent liabilities are disclosed on the basis of judgment of themanagement/independent experts. These are reviewed at each balancesheet date and are adjusted to reflect the current management estimate.
A contingent liability is not recognized but disclosed as per requirements ofInd (AS) 37. The related asset is recognized when the realisation of incomebecomes virtually certain.
A contingent asset is a possible asset that arises from past events and whoseexistence will be confirmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence ofone or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of theentity.
A defined contribution plan is a post-employment benefit plan underwhich an entity pays fixed contributions into separate entities and will haveno legal or constructive obligation to pay further amounts. Obligations forcontributions to defined contribution plans are recognized as an employeebenefits expense in profit or loss in the period during which services arerendered by employees. Prepaid contributions are recognized as an asset tothe extent that a cash refund or a reduction in future payments is available.Contributions to a defined contribution plan that are due after more than12 months after the end of the period in which the employees render theservice are discounted to their present value.
The Company pays fixed contribution to Employees’ Provident Fund. Thecontributions to the fund for the year are recognized as expense and arecharged to the profit or loss. The Company’s only obligation is to pay afixed amount with no obligation to pay further contributions if the funddoes not hold sufficient assets to pay all employee benefits.
A defined benefit plan is a post-employment benefit plan other than adefined contribution plan. The Company’s liability is towards gratuity andpost-retirement medical facility. The gratuity is funded by the Company andis managed by separate trust PTC INDIA Gratuity Trust. The Companyhas Post-Retirement Medical Scheme (PRMS), under which eligible retiredemployee and the spouse are provided medical facilities and avail treatmentas out-patient subject to a ceiling fixed by the Company.
The Company’s net obligation in respect of defined benefit plans iscalculated separately for each plan by estimating the amount of futurebenefit that employees have earned in return for their service in the currentand prior periods; that benefit is discounted to determine its present value.Any unrecognized past service costs is recognised and the fair value of anyplan assets is deducted. The discount rate is based on the prevailing marketyields of Indian government securities as at the reporting date that havematurity dates approximating the terms of the Company’s obligationsand that are denominated in the same currency in which the benefits areexpected to be paid.
The calculation is performed annually by a qualified actuary using theprojected unit credit method. When the calculation results in a benefitto the Company, the recognized asset is limited to the total of anyunrecognized past service costs and the present value of economic benefitsavailable in the form of any future refunds from the plan or reductions infuture contributions to the plan. An economic benefit is available to theCompany if it is realizable during the life of the plan, or on settlement ofthe plan liabilities. Any actuarial gains or losses are recognized in OCI inthe period in which they arise.
Other long-term employee benefits
Benefits under the Company’s leave encashment constitute other long termemployee benefits.
The Company’s obligation in respect of leave encashment is the amountof future benefit that employees have earned in return for their servicein the current and prior periods; that benefit is discounted to determineits present value. The discount rate is based on the prevailing marketyields of Indian government securities as at the reporting date that havematurity dates approximating the terms of the Company’s obligations.The calculation is performed using the projected unit credit method. Any
actuarial gains or losses are recognized in profit or loss in the period inwhich they arise.
Short-term benefits
Short term employee benefits are that are expected to be settled whollybefore twelve months after the end of the reporting periods in which theemployee rendered the related services.
Short-term employee benefit obligations are measured on an undiscountedbasis and are expensed as the related service is provided.
A liability is recognized for the amount expected to be paid underperformance related pay if the Company has a present legal or constructiveobligation to pay this amount as a result of past service provided by theemployee and the obligation can be estimated reliably.
Liability in respect of gratuity, leave encashment and provident fund ofemployees on deputation with the Company are accounted for on the basisof terms and conditions of deputation of the parent organizations.
A financial instrument is any contract that gives rise to a financial asset ofone entity and a financial liability or equity instrument of another entity.
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognized when a Companyentity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instruments.
Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially measured at fair valueexcept trade receivables and trade payable which are initially measured attransaction price.
Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issueof financial assets and financial liabilities (other than financial assets andfinancial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss) are added to ordeducted from the fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities, asappropriate, on initial recognition. Transaction costs directly attributableto the acquisition of financial assets or financial liabilities at fair valuethrough profit or loss are recognized immediately in profit or loss.
All financial assets are recognized initially at fair value plus, in the case offinancial assets not recorded at fair value through profit or loss, transactioncosts that are attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset.
Purchases or sales of financial assets that require delivery of assets withina time frame established by regulation or convention in the market place(regular way trades) are recognized on the trade date, i.e., the date that theCompany commits to purchase or sell the asset.
Subsequent measurement
For purposes of subsequent measurement, financial assets are classified asunder:
a) Debt instruments at amortized cost
b) Debt instruments and equity instruments at fair value through profitor loss (FVTPL)
c) Equity instruments measured at fair value through othercomprehensive income (FVTOCI)
Debt instruments at amortized cost
A debt instrument is measured at the amortized cost if both the followingconditions are met:
a) The asset is held within a business model whose objective is to holdassets for collecting contractual cash flows, and
b) Contractual terms of the asset give rise on specified dates to cashflows that are solely payments of principal and interest (SPPI) on theprincipal amount outstanding.
After initial measurement, such financial assets are subsequently measuredat amortized cost using the effective interest rate (EIR) method. Amortizedcost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium onacquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of the EIR. The EIRamortization is included in finance income in the profit or loss. The lossesarising from impairment are recognized in the profit or loss. This categorygenerally applies to trade and other receivables.
The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised costof a debt instrument and of allocating interest income over the relevantperiod. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimatedfuture cash receipts (including all fees and points paid or received that forman integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and otherpremiums or discounts) through the expected life of the debt instrument,or, where appropriate, a shorter period, to the net carrying amount oninitial recognition.
Income is recognised on an effective interest basis for debt instrumentsother than those financial assets classified as at FVTPL. Interest income isrecognised in profit or loss and is included in the “Other income” line item.
Debt instruments and equity instruments at fair value through profit orloss (FVTPL).
FVTPL is a residual category for debt instruments. Any debt instrument,which does not meet the criteria for categorization as at amortized cost oras FVTOCI, is classified as at FVTPL.
In addition, the Company may elect to classify a debt instrument, whichotherwise meets amortized cost or FVTOCI criteria, as at FVTPL.However, such election is allowed only if doing so reduces or eliminatesa measurement or recognition inconsistency (referred to as ‘accountingmismatch’).
Debt instruments included within the FVTPL category are measured at fairvalue with all changes recognized in the P&L.
Equity Investments at FVTPL or FVTOCI
All equity investments in scope of Ind-AS 109 are measured at fair value.Equity instruments which are held for trading are classified as at FVTPL.For all other equity instruments, the Company decides to classify the sameeither as at FVTOCI or FVTPL. The Company makes such election onan instrument-by-instrument basis. The classification is made on initialrecognition and is irrevocable.
If the Company decides to classify an equity instrument as at FVTOCI,then all fair value changes on the instrument, excluding dividends, arerecognized in the OCI. There is no recycling of the amounts from OCI toP&L, even on sale of Investment. However, the Company may transfer thecumulative gain or loss within equity.
Equity instruments included within the FVTPL category are measured atfair value with all changes recognized in the P&L.
Derecognition
A financial asset (or, where applicable, a part of a financial asset or part of agroup of similar financial assets) is primarily derecognized when:
a) The rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired, or
b) The Company has transferred its rights to receive cash flows fromthe asset or has assumed an obligation to pay the received cash flowsin full without material delay to a third party under a ‘pass-through
arrangement; and either (i) the Company has transferred substantiallyall the. risks and rewards of the asset, or (ii) the Company has neithertransferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of theasset, but has transferred control of the asset
When the Company has transferred its rights to receive cash-flows from anasset or has entered into a pass-through arrangement, it evaluates if and towhat extent it has retained the risks and rewards of ownership. When it hasneither transferred nor retained substantially all of the risks and rewards ofthe asset, nor transferred control of the asset, the Company continues torecognize the transferred asset to the extent of the Company’s continuinginvolvement. In that case, the Company also recognizes an associatedliability. The transferred asset and the associated liability are measured on abasis that reflects the rights and obligations that the Company has retained.
Continuing involvement that takes the form of a guarantee over thetransferred asset is measured at the lower of the original carrying amountof the asset and the maximum amount of consideration that the Companycould be required to repay.
Impairment of financial assets
In accordance with Ind AS 109, the Company applies expected credit loss(ECL) model for measurement and recognition of impairment loss on thefollowing financial assets and credit risk exposure-
• Financial assets that are debt instruments, and are measured atamortised cost e.g., loans, debt securities, deposits, trade receivablesand bank balance
• Financial assets that are debt instruments and are measured as at
FVTOCI
• Financial guarantee contracts which are not measured as at FVTPL
The Company follows ‘simplified approach’ for recognition of impairmentloss allowance on:
• Trade receivables, and/or any contractual right to receive cash oranother financial asset that result from transactions that are withinthe scope of Ind AS 115
• All lease receivables resulting from transactions within the scope of
Ind AS 116
The application of simplified approach does not require the Companyto track changes in credit risk. Rather, it recognises impairment lossallowance based on lifetime ECLs at each reporting date, right from itsinitial recognition.
For recognition of impairment loss on other financial assets and Creditrisk exposure, the Company determines that whether there has beena significant increase in the credit risk since initial recognition. If creditrisk has not increased significantly, 12-month ECL is used to provide forimpairment loss. However, if credit risk has increased significantly, lifetimeECL is used. If, in a subsequent period, credit quality of the instrumentimproves such that there is no longer a significant increase in credit risksince initial recognition, then the entity reverts to recognising impairmentloss allowance based on 12-month ECL.
ECL impairment loss allowance (or reversal) recognized during the periodis recognized as income/expense in the statement of profit and loss (P&L).This amount is reflected in a separate line in the P&L as an impairmentgain or loss.
The balance sheet presentation for various financial instruments isdescribed below:
Financial assets measured as at amortised cost, contract assets and leaseheld receivables
ECL is presented as an allowance, i.e., as an integral part of the measurementof those assets in the balance sheet. The allowance reduces the net carrying
amount. Until the asset meets write-off criteria, the Company does notreduce impairment allowance from the gross carrying amount.
For assessing increase in credit risk and impairment loss, the Companycombines financial instruments on the basis of shared credit riskcharacteristics with the objective of facilitating an analysis that is designedto enable significant increases in credit risk to be identified on a timelybasis.
Financial liabilities are classified, at initial recognition, as financial liabilitiesat fair value through profit or loss, loans and borrowings or payables, asappropriate.
All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value and, in the case ofloans and borrowings and payables, net of directly attributable transactioncosts.
The Company’s financial liabilities include trade and other payables,loans and borrowings including bank overdrafts and financial guaranteecontracts.
The measurement of financial liabilities depends on their classification, asdescribed below:
After initial recognition, Interest-bearing loans and borrowings aresubsequently measured at amortised cost using the EIR method. Gains andlosses are recognised in profit or loss when the liabilities are derecognisedas well as through the EIR amortisation process.
Amortised cost is calculated by taking into account any discount orpremium on acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of theEIR. The EIR amortisation is included as finance costs in the statement ofprofit and loss.
Financial guarantee contracts issued by the Company are those contractsthat require a payment to be made to reimburse the holder for a loss itincurs because the specified debtor fails to make a payment when duein accordance with the terms of a debt instrument. Financial guaranteecontracts are recognised initially as a liability at fair value, adjustedfor transaction costs that are directly attributable to the issuance of theguarantee. Subsequently, the liability is measured at the higher of theamount of loss allowance determined as per impairment requirements ofInd-AS 109 and the amount recognised less cumulative amortisation.
A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liabilityis discharged or cancelled or expires. When an existing financial liabilityis replaced by another from the same lender on substantially differentterms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified,such an exchange or modification is treated as the derecognition of theoriginal liability and the recognition of a new liability. The difference in therespective carrying amounts is recognised in the statement of profit or loss.
Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount isreported in the consolidated balance sheet if there is a currently enforceablelegal right to offset the recognised amounts and there is an intention tosettle on a net basis, to realise the assets and settle the liabilitiessimultaneously.
The Company determines the classification of financial assets and liabilitieson initial recognition. After initial recognition, no reclassification ismade for financial assets which are categorised as equity instruments atFVTOCI and financial assets or financial liabilities that are specificallydesignated at FVTPL. For financial assets, which are debt instruments, areclassification is made only if there is a change in the business model formanaging those assets. Changes to the business model are expected to beinfrequent. The management determines change in the business modelas a result of external or internal changes which are significant to theCompany’s operations. A change in the business model occurs when theCompany either begins or ceases to perform an activity that is significantto its operations. If the Company reclassifies financial assets, it applies thereclassification prospectively from the reclassification date which is the firstday of immediately next reporting period following the change in businessmodel. The Company does not restate any previously recognised gains,losses (including impairment gains or losses) or interest.
Cash and cash equivalents in the balance sheet comprise cash at banks andon hand and short-term deposits with an original maturity of three monthsor less, which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.
The company recognises a liability of dividend to equity holders when thedistribution is authorised and the distribution is no longer at the discretionof the Company. As per the corporate laws in India, a distribution isauthorised when it is approved by the shareholders. A correspondingamount is recognised directly in equity.
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Costincludes cost of purchase, cost of conversion and other costs incurred inbringing the inventories to their present location and condition.
Cost of inventories is measured on First in and First out (FIFO) basis.
Costs of purchased inventory are determined after deducting rebates anddiscounts.
Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary courseof business, less estimated costs of completion and the estimated costsnecessary to make the sale.
Property, Plant and equipment (PP&E) are carried in the balance sheeton the basis of at cost of acquisition including incidental costs relatedto acquisition and installation, net of accumulated depreciation andaccumulated impairment losses, if any.
Property, Plant and Equipment is recognized when it is probable thatfuture economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Companyand the cost of each item can be measured reliably. Property, Plant andEquipment are initially stated at cost.
Cost of asset includes
(a) Purchase price, net of any trade discount and rebates.
(b) Borrowing cost if capitalization criteria is met.
(c) Cost directly attributable to the acquisition of the assets whichincurred in bringing asset to its working condition for the intendeduse.
(d) Incidental expenditure during the construction period is capitalizedas part of the indirect construction cost to the extent the expenditureis directly related to construction or is incidental thereto.
(e) Present value of the estimated costs of dismantling & removing theitems & restoring the site on which it is located if recognition criteriaare met.
When significant parts of plant and equipment are required to be replacedat intervals, the Company depreciates them separately based on theirspecific useful lives. Likewise, when a major inspection is performed, itscost is recognized in the carrying amount of the plant and equipment as areplacement if the recognition criteria are satisfied.
Subsequent cost relating to Property, plant and equipment shall berecognized as an asset if:
a) it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the itemwill flow to the entity; and
b) the cost of the item can be measured reliably.
All other repair and maintenance costs are recognized in profit or loss asincurred.
The Company depreciates property, plant and equipment over theirestimated useful lives using written down method except wind mill andleasehold land. The useful lives are at the rates and in the manner providedin Schedule II of the Companies Act, 2013
The depreciation on Wind Mills has been changed on Straight LineMethod (SLM) at rates worked out based on the useful life and in themanner prescribed in the Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013.
Depreciation on additions to/deductions from property, plant &equipment during the year is charged on pro-rata basis from/up to themonth in which the asset is available for use/disposed.
Advance paid towards the acquisition of property, plant and equipmentoutstanding at each balance sheet date is shown under the head non¬financial assets in the balance sheet.
The cost of assets not available for use is disclosed under Capital Work inProgress till the time they are ready for use.
Where the cost of depreciable assets has undergone a change duringthe year due to increase/decrease in long term liabilities on account ofexchange fluctuation, price adjustment, change in duties or similar factors,the unamortized balance of such asset is charged off prospectively overthe remaining useful life determined following the applicable accountingpolicies relating to depreciation/ amortization.
Where it is probable that future economic benefits deriving from the costincurred will flow to the enterprise and the cost of the item can be measuredreliably, subsequent expenditure on a PPE along-with its unamortizeddepreciable amount is charged off prospectively over the revised useful lifedetermined by technical assessment.
In circumstance, where a property is abandoned, the cumulative capitalizedcosts relating to the property are written off in the same period.
An item of property, plant and equipment and any significant part initiallyrecognized is derecognized upon disposal or when no future economicbenefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss arising onderecognition of the asset is included in the income statement when theasset is derecognized.
Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewedperiodically, including at each financial year end and adjusted prospectively,if appropriate.
The Company follows component approach as envisaged in ScheduleII to the Companies Act, 2013. The approach involves identification ofcomponents of the asset whose cost is significant to the total cost of the assetand have useful life different from the useful life of the remaining assetsand in respect of such identified components, useful life is determinedseparately from the useful life of the main asset.
Modification or extension to an existing asset, which is of capital natureand which becomes an integral part thereof is depreciated prospectivelyover the remaining useful life of that asset.
Asset costing less than Rs. 5000/- is fully depreciated in the year ofcapitalization.
An item of Property, Plant and Equipment and any significant part initiallyrecognized is derecognized upon disposal or when no future economicbenefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss arising onderecognition of the asset (calculated as the difference between the netdisposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in thestatement of profit and loss when the asset is derecognized.
In determining basic earnings per share, the Company considers the netprofit attributable to equity shareholders. The number of shares used incomputing basic earnings per share is the weighted average number ofshares outstanding during the period/year. In determining diluted earningsper share, the net profit attributable to equity shareholders and weightedaverage number of shares outstanding during the period/year are adjustedfor the effect of all dilutive potential equity shares.
The excess of market price of underlying equity shares as of the date of thegrant of options over the exercise price of the options given to employeesunder the employee stock option plan is recognize as deferred stockcompensation cost and amortized over the vesting period, on a straight linebasis. The cumulative expense recognised for equity-settled transactions ateach reporting date until the vesting date reflects the extent to which thevesting period has expired and the company’s best estimate of the numberof equity instruments that will ultimately vest. The statement of profit andloss expense or credit for a period represents the movement in cumulativeexpense recognised as at the beginning and end of that period and isrecognised in employee benefits expense
Revenue from contracts with customers is recognised when control of thegoods or services are transferred to the customer at an amount that reflectsthe consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchangefor those goods or services. The Company has generally concluded thatit is the principal in its revenue arrangements, except for the agencynature transactions, because it typically controls the goods or servicesbefore transferring them to the customer. The specific recognition criteria
described below must also be met before revenue is recognised. Revenuefrom other income comprises interest from banks, employees, etc., dividendfrom investments in associates and subsidiary companies, dividend frommutual fund investments, surcharge received from customers for delayedpayments, other miscellaneous income, etc.
Sale is recognized when the power is delivered by the Company at thedelivery point in conformity with the parameters and technical limits andfulfilment of other conditions specified in the Power Sales Agreement.Sale of power is accounted for as per tariff specified in the Power SalesAgreement. The sale of power is accounted for net of all local taxes andduties as may be leviable on sale of electricity for all electricity madeavailable and sold to customers.
The Company considers whether there are other promises in the contractthat are separate performance obligations to which a portion of thetransaction price needs to be allocated. In determining the transactionprice for the sale of power, the Company considers the effects of variableconsideration, the existence of significant financing components, non-cashconsideration, and consideration payable to the customer (if any).
The company provides consultancy services to its customers. The Companyrecognises revenue over time, using the output method measuring thecompletion of different stages of consultancy project relative to the totalcompletion the service, because the customer receives and consumes thebenefits provided by the Company over the time.
When another party is involved in providing goods or services to thecustomers, the Company determines whether it is a principal or an agent inthese transactions by evaluating the nature of its promise to the customer.The company is a principal and records revenue on a gross basis if it controlsthe promised goods or services before transferring them to the customer.However, the company is an agent and records revenue on net basis if itdoes not control the promised goods or services before transferring themto the customer.
Variable consideration
If the consideration in a contract includes a variable amount, the Companyestimates the amount of consideration to which it will be entitled in exchangefor transferring the goods to the customer. The variable consideration isestimated at contract inception and constrained until it is highly probablethat a significant revenue reversal in the amount of cumulative revenuerecognised will not occur when the associated uncertainty with the variableconsideration is subsequently resolved.
Contract assets
A contract asset is the right to consideration in exchange for goods or servicestransferred to the customer. If the Company performs by transferring goodsor services to a customer before the customer pays consideration or beforepayment is due, a contract asset is recognised for the earned considerationthat is conditional.
Trade receivables
A receivable represents the Company’s right to an amount of considerationthat is unconditional (i.e., only the passage of time is required beforepayment of the consideration is due).
Contract liabilities
A contract liability is the obligation to transfer goods or services to acustomer for which the Company has received consideration (or an amountof consideration is due) from the customer. If a customer pays consideration
before the Company transfers goods or services to the customer, a contractliability is recognised when the payment is made or the payment is due(whichever is earlier). Contract liabilities are recognised as revenue whenthe Company performs under the contract.
Surcharge Income
The surcharge on late payment/ non- payment from customers is recognizedwhen:
i) the amount of surcharge can be measured reliably; and
ii) there is no significant uncertainty that the economic benefitsassociated with the surcharge transaction will flow to the entity.
Interest income
Interest income from a financial asset is recognized when it is probablethat the economic benefits will flow to the company and the amount ofincome can be measured reliably. Interest income is accrued on a timebasis by reference to the principal outstanding and at the effective interestapplicable, which is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cashreceipts through the expected life of the financial asset to that asset’s netcarrying amount on initial recognition. When calculating the effectiveinterest rate, the company estimates the expected cash flows by consideringall the contractual terms of the financial instrument (for example,prepayment, extension, call and similar options) but does not consider theexpected credit losses. Interest income is included in finance income in thestatement of profit and loss.
Dividends
Dividend income is recognized when the Company’s right to receive thepayment is established, which is generally when shareholders approve thedividend, provided that it is probable that the economic benefits will flowto the company and the amount of income can be measured reliably.
Rental income arising from operating leases is accounted for on a straight¬line basis over the lease terms unless the lease payments are structuredto increase in line with expected general inflation to compensate for thelessor’s expected inflationary cost. Rental Income is included in revenue inthe statement of profit and loss.
Cash flow statement is prepared in accordance with the indirect methodprescribed in Ind AS 7 ‘Statement of Cash Flows’
Borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, constructionor production of a qualifying asset are capitalized as a part of that asset.Other borrowing costs are recognized as expenses in the period in whichthey are incurred.
Business Combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method ofaccounting, except for common control transactions which are accountedusing the pooling of interest method that is accounted at carrying values.The consideration transferred in the acquisition and the identifiableassets acquired and liabilities assumed are recognized at fair values ontheir acquisition date, which is the date at which control is transferredto the Company. Goodwill is initially measured at cost, being the excessof the consideration transferred over the net identifiable assets acquiredand liabilities assumed. Where the fair value of net identifiable assetsacquired and liabilities assumed exceed the consideration transferred,after reassessing the fair values of the net assets and contingent liabilities,the excess is recognized as capital reserve. Acquisition related costs areexpensed as incurred.
Non-current assets (or disposal groups) are classified as held for sale if theircarrying amount will be recovered principally through a sale transactionrather than through continuing use and a sale is considered highly probable.They are measured at the lower of their carrying amount and fair value lesscosts to sell, except for assets such as deferred tax assets, assets arising fromemployee benefits, financial assets and contractual rights under insurancecontracts, which are specifically exempt from this requirement.
A discontinued operation is a component of the entity that has beendisposed of or is classified as held for sale and that represents a separatemajor line of business or geographical area of operations, is part of a singlecoordinated plan to dispose of such a line of business or area of operations,or is a subsidiary acquired exclusively with a view to resale. The results ofdiscontinued operations are presented separately in the Statement of Profitand Loss.
The preparation of financial statements requires management to makejudgments, estimates and assumptions that may impact the applicationof accounting policies and the reported value of assets, liabilities, income,expenses and related disclosures concerning the items involved as well ascontingent assets and liabilities at the balance sheet date. The estimatesand management’s judgments are based on previous experience and otherfactors considered reasonable and prudent in the circumstances. Actualresults may differ from these estimates.
Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis.Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which theestimates are revised and in any future periods affected.
In order to enhance understanding of the financial statements, informationabout significant areas of estimation, uncertainty and critical judgments inapplying accounting policies that have the most significant effect on theamounts recognised in the financial statements is as under:
a) Useful life of property, plant and equipment
The estimated useful life of property, plant and equipment is basedon a number of factors including the effects of obsolescence, demand,competition and other economic factors (such as the stability ofthe industry and known technological advances) and the level ofmaintenance expenditures required to obtain the expected futurecash flows from the asset.
The recoverable amount of plant and equipment is based on estimatesand assumptions regarding in particular the expected market outlookand future cash flows. Any changes in these assumptions may have amaterial impact on the measurement of the recoverable amount andcould result in impairment.
The Company assesses at each reporting date whether there is anindication that an asset may be impaired. If any indication exists,or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, theCompany estimates the asset’s recoverable amount. An asset’srecoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s or CGU’s fair value lesscosts of disposal and its value in use. It is determined for an individualasset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largelyindependent of those from other assets or groups of assets. Where thecarrying amount of an asset or CGU exceeds its recoverable amount,the asset is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverableamount.
In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discountedto their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current
market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specificto the asset. In determining fair value less costs of disposal, recentmarket transactions are taken into account. If no such transactionscan be identified, an appropriate valuation model is used.
d) Defined benefit plans
The cost of the defined benefit plan and other post-employmentbenefits and the present value of such obligation are determined usingactuarial valuations. An actuarial valuation involves making variousassumptions that may differ from actual developments in the future.These include the determination of the discount rate, future salaryincreases, mortality rates and attrition rate. Due to the complexitiesinvolved in the valuation and its long-term nature, a defined benefitobligation is highly sensitive to changes in these assumptions. Allassumptions are reviewed at each reporting date.
e) Fair value measurement of financial instruments
When the fair values of financial assets and financial liabilitiesrecorded in the balance sheet cannot be measured based on quotedprices in active markets, their fair value is measured using valuationtechniques including the Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) model. Theinputs to these models are taken from observable markets wherepossible, but where this is not feasible, a degree of judgement isrequired in establishing fair values. Judgements include considerationsof inputs such as liquidity risk, credit risk and volatility. Changes inassumptions about these factors could affect the reported fair value offinancial instruments.
The impairment provisions for financial assets are based onassumptions about risk of default and expected loss rates. TheCompany uses judgement in making these assumptions and selectingthe inputs to the impairment calculation, based on Company’spast history, existing market conditions as well as forward lookingestimates at the end of each reporting period.
g) Deferred Tax
Deferred tax assets are recognized for unused tax losses to the extentthat it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which thelosses can be utilized. Significant management judgment is requiredto determine the amount of deferred tax assets that can be recognized,based upon the likely timing and the level of future taxable profitstogether with future tax planning strategies.
The assessments undertaken in recognizing provisions andcontingencies have been made in accordance with Ind AS 37,‘Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets’. Theevaluation of the likelihood of the contingent events has required bestjudgment by management regarding the probability of exposure topotential loss. Should circumstances change following unforeseeabledevelopments, this likelihood could alter.
In the normal course of business, contingent liabilities may arise fromlitigation and other claims against the Company. There are certainobligations which managements have concluded based on all availablefacts and circumstances are not probable of payment or difficult toquantify reliably and such obligations are treated as contingentliabilities and disclosed in notes.
i) Leases
Significant judgment is required to apply lease accounting to IndAS 116 ‘Determining whether an arrangement contains a lease’. Inassessing the applicability to arrangements entered into by the Group,management has exercised judgment to evaluate the right to use
the underlying asset, substance of the transactions including legallyenforceable agreements and other significant terms and conditionsof the arrangements to conclude whether the arrangement needs thecriteria under Appendix C to Ind AS 116.
Significant judgment is required to apply the accounting of non¬current assets held for sale under Ind AS 105 ‘Non-current Assets Heldfor Sale and Discontinued Operations’. In assessing the applicability,management has exercised judgment to evaluate the availability ofthe asset for immediate sale, management’s commitment for the saleand probability of sale within one year to conclude if their carryingamount will be recovered principally through a sale transaction ratherthan through continuing use.
The Company applied the following judgements that significantlyaffect the determination of the amount and timing of revenue fromcontracts with customers:-
Certain contracts for the sale of electricity give rise to variable consideration.In estimating the variable consideration, the Company is required to useeither the expected value method or the most likely amount method basedon which method better predicts the amount of consideration to which itwill be entitled. The most likely amount method is used for those contracts
with a single volume threshold, while the expected value method is used forcontracts with more than one volume threshold.
Before including any amount of variable consideration in the transactionprice, the Company considers whether the amount of variable considerationis constrained and the uncertainty on the variable consideration will beresolved within a short time frame.
Principal versus agent considerations
The company enters into agreements with its customers for sales of powerat power exchanges. Under these contracts, the company determines thatit does not control the goods before they are transferred on the basic thatit does not have inventory risk, therefore the company determines thetransactions at exchange are of agency nature.

For sale of 840 MW on long term basis,- PTC hadPSAs with four DISCOMS. However there was considerable delay onaccount of certain Force Majeure Events and two DISCOMs illegallyterminated the said PSAs and refused to off-take power under thePSAs. The Company had relinquished Long Term Open Access(LTA) in respect of these two DISCOMS.
Though the Company took the LTA but it was agreed that it wasbeing taken on behalf of DISCOMS which were liable to pay thetransmission charges.

.f) One to the suppliers provided power to the Company from anothersource. The customer did not pay to the Company for power suppliedfrom the another source. Further, the customer also deductedcompensation from the Company for short supply of power by notconsidering power supplied from the another source.

The Company has filed Appeal in NCLAT Chennai against theNCLT order regarding BG. Further, the financial creditors of thesuppliers have also filed the appeal against the NCLT order.
The Company is of view that that deductions from bills were as per theagreements and PTC was well within its rights to make the deductions.Though, PTC has a strong ground in Appeal before NCLAT, as anabundant caution, the Company has created a provision of' 27 Croreagainst the amount of BG invoked.

k) In two cases, the suppliers have raised various issues concerninginterpretation of various clauses of PPAs. The suppliers have filedthe Petition before CERC. As the issues are at initial stage and stillpending before CERC, the measurement of financial effects of thesame is impracticable as on date.

compensation received. The Company has filed a writ against the Orderof the Commissioner, CGST in Delhi High Court. Further, the Ministryof Finance has issued Circular No. 178/10/2022- GST dated August 03,2022 clarifying that Service tax/ GST is not applicable on compensationsince the compensation is not by way of consideration for any otherindependent activity; it is just an event in the course of performance ofthat contract.

Based on the actuarial valuation obtained in this respect,the following table sets out the status of the gratuity and theamounts recognised in the Company’s financial statements as atbalance sheet date:
Although the analysis does not take account of the fulldistribution of cash flows expected under the plan, it doesprovide an approximation of the sensitivity of the assumptionsshown.
The sensitivity analysis above have been determined basedon a method that extrapolates the impact on defined benefitobligation as a result of reasonable changes in key assumptionsoccurring at the end of the reporting period. This analysis maynot be representative of the actual change in the defined benefitobligations as it is unlikely that the change in assumptions wouldoccur in isolation of one another as some of the assumptionsmay be correlated.
Through its defined benefit plans, the Company is exposed to anumber of risks, the most significant of which are detailed below:
The plan liabilities are calculated using a discount rate set withreference to bond yields; if plan assets underperform this yield,this will create a deficit. Most of the plan asset investments arein fixed income securities with high grades and in governmentsecurities. These are subject to interest rate risk and the fundmanages interest rate risk with derivatives to minimise risk to anacceptable. The equity securities are expected to earn a returnin excess of the discount rate and contribute to the plan deficit.Any deviations from the range are corrected by rebalancingthe portfolio. The Company intends to maintain the aboveinvestment mix in the continuing years.
A decrease in discount rate will increase plan liabilities, althoughthis will be partially offset by an increase in the value of theplans’ assets holdings.
The Company actively monitors how the duration and theexpected yield of the investments are matching the expectedcash outflows arising from the employee benefit obligations. TheCompany has not changed the processes used to manage its risksfrom previous periods.
The company has Risk Governance System. To determine whether operationsare within the risk appetite of the organisation at any given time, the followingparameters are reported to the appropriate layer of the Risk Governance system,and in particular to the Board of Directors and Audit Committee periodically:-

For purchase of power through Power Exchange(s), for clients other than stateowned power utilities, the company either takes payments from the parties onadvance basis or ensures security mechanism in the form of Bank Guarantee/Letter of Credits. Transactions with state owned power utilities are generallymade without security mechanism, however transactions being with state ownedpower utilities, the risk is insignificant
Investments in marketable securities
The company invests in marketable securities to churn its short term workingcapital funds.
The Board of directors has established an investment policy by taking intoaccount liquidity risk as well as credit risk. The investment policy prescribesguidelines for investible funds on fulfilment of certain conditions i.e. investmentin AMC who invest as per SEBI Guidelines, limit of investment in single AMC,performance rating etc. The Company’s treasury department operates in linewith such policy.

deposit of ' 685.05 Crore (31 March 2024: ' 105.01 Crore) shown under cashand cash equivalents (refer note no. 13).
The carrying amount of financial assets represents the maximum creditexposure. The maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date was:
The company has assets where the counter- parties have sufficientcapacity to meet the obligations and where the risk of default is verylow. Accordingly, loss allowance for impairment has been recognisedas disclosed later in this note under “Reconciliation of impairmentloss provisions”.
The company has customers (State government utilities) withsufficient capacity to meet the obligations and therefore the risk ofdefault is negligible or low. Further, management believes that theunimpaired overdue amounts are still collectible in full, based onhistorical payment behaviour. However, the management has madeprovision for expected impairment loss for the parties identified oncase to case basis.
The Company provides for expected credit losses on financial assetsother than above customers (where impairment provision is createdon case to case basis) by assessing individual financial instruments forexpectation of any credit losses.
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will encounter difficulty in meetingthe obligations associated with its financial liabilities that are settled by deliveringcash or another financial asset. The Company’s approach to managing liquidityis to ensure, as far as possible, that it will always have sufficient liquidity to meetits liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed conditions, withoutincurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Company’s reputation.
The Company has an appropriate liquidity risk management framework for themanagement of short, medium and long term funding and liquidity managementrequirements. The Company manages liquidity risk by maintaining adequatecash reserves/banking facilities/ reserve borrowing facilities by continuouslymonitoring forecast and actual cash flows and matching the maturity profiles offinancial assets and liabilities.
The Company’s treasury department is responsible for managing the short termand long term liquidity requirements of the Company. Short term liquiditysituation is reviewed daily by Treasury. The Board of directors has establishedan investment policy by taking into account liquidity risk as well as credit risk.The Company’s treasury department operates in line with such policy. Long termliquidity position is reviewed by the Board of Directors and appropriate decisionsare taken according to the situation.
Commercial department and Financial department monitor the company’snet liquidity position by monitoring the level of expected cash inflows on tradeand other receivables together with expected cash outflows on trade and otherpayables.
Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices that will affect the Company’sincome or the value of its holdings of financial instruments. The objective ofmarket risk management is to manage and control market risk exposures withinacceptable parameters, while optimising the return.
The Board of directors is responsible for setting up of policies and procedures tomanage market risks of the Company.
The Company is exposed to foreign currency risk on certain transactions thatare denominated in a currency other than entity’s functional currency, henceexposure to exchange rate fluctuations arises. The risk is that the functionalcurrency value of cash flows will vary as a result of movements in exchange rates.
At present, the company has a Forex Risk Management Policy for hedging offoreign currency risk.
The currency profile of financial assets/liabilities as at the reporting date are asbelow:
Price risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financialinstrument will fluctuate because of changes in net asset value (NAV) of thefinancial instruments held.
The Company’s price risk is mainly generated with fair value in respect of theinvestments held in mutual funds. Investments primarily include investment inliquid debt based mutual fund units with high credit-ratings assigned by credit¬rating agencies and are managed by asset management companies.
The carrying amount of the Company’s investments in mutual funds designatedas at fair value through profit or loss at the end of the reporting period are asfollows:
The following table details the Company’s sensitivity to a 1% increase anddecrease in the NAV of investments held. The sensitivity analysis includes onlyoutstanding investments and adjusts their position at the period end for a 1%change in NAV. A positive number below indicates an increase in profit orequity where NAV increases by 1%. For a 1% weakening in NAV, there wouldbe a comparable impact on the profit or equity, and the balances below wouldbe negative.
Every 1% increase / decrease in the NAV of investments, will affect theCompany’s profit before tax as given in below table:
In Company’s opinion, the sensitivity analysis is unrepresentative of the inherentforeign exchange risk and price risk because the exposure at the end of thereporting period does not reflect the exposure during the year.
The company’s fixed rate instruments are carried at amortised cost. They aretherefore not subject to interest rate risk, since neither the carrying amount northe future cash flows will fluctuate because of a change in market interest rates.
At the reporting date the interest rate profile of the Company’s interest-bearingfinancial instruments is as follows:
Ind AS 27 ‘Separate Financial Statements’), other financial assets, tradepayables and other financial liabilities are considered to be the same as theirfair values, due to their short-term nature.
(b) Fair value hierarchy
This section explains the judgements and estimates made in determining thefair values of the financial instruments that are (a) recognised and measuredat fair value and (b) measured at amortised cost and for which fair valuesare disclosed in the financial statements. To provide an indication aboutthe reliability of the inputs used in determining fair value, the company hasclassified its financial instruments into the three levels prescribed underthe accounting standard. An explanation of each level follows underneaththe table.
The carrying values for finance lease receivables, if any, approximates thefair value as these are periodically evaluated based on credit worthinessof customer and allowance for estimated losses is recorded based on thisevaluation.
The fair values for lease obligation were calculated based on cash flowsdiscounted using a discount rate. The carrying amount of finance leaseobligations approximate its fair value.
For financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value, thecarrying amounts are equal to the fair values.

Fair values are categorised into different levels in a fair value hierarchybased on the inputs used in the valuation techniques as follows.
Level 1: Level 1 hierarchy includes financial instruments measured usingquoted prices. This includes investments in quoted equity instruments.Quoted equity instruments are valued using quoted prices at stockexchanges.
Level 2: The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in anactive market is determined using valuation techniques which maximise theuse of observable market data and rely as little as possible on entity specificestimates. If all significant inputs required to fair value an instrument areobservable, the instrument is included in level 2. This level includes mutualfunds which are valued using the closing NAV.
Level 3: If one or more of the significant inputs is not based on observablemarket data, the instrument is included in level 3. This is the case forunquoted equity instruments included in level 3.
There have been no transfers in either direction for the years ended31 March 2025 and 31 March 2024
Specific valuation techniques used to value financial instruments include:
- the use of quoted market prices
- the fair value of the remaining financial instruments is determined usingdiscounted cash flow/net adjusted asset value/ book value analysis/ NAV.
