A provision is recognised if, as a result of a past event,the Company has a present legal or constructiveobligation that can be estimated reliably, and it isprobable that an outflow of economic benefits willbe required to settle the obligation. Provisions aredetermined by discounting the expected futurecash flows (representing the best estimate of theexpenditure required to settle the present obligationat the balance sheet date) at a pre-tax rate thatreflects current market assessments of the timevalue of money and the risks specific to the liability.The unwinding of the discount is recognised asfinance cost. Expected future operating losses arenot provided for.
(i) Warranties
A provision for warranties is recognised whenthe underlying products or services are sold. Theprovision is based on technical evaluation, historicalwarranty data and a weighting of all possibleoutcomes by their associated probabilities.
A contract is considered to be onerous when theexpected economic benefits to be derived by theCompany from the contract are lower than theunavoidable cost of meeting its obligations underthe contract. The provision for an onerous contractis measured at the present value of the lower of theexpected cost of terminating the contract and theexpected net cost of continuing with the contract.
Before such a provision is made, the Companyrecognises any impairment loss on the assetsassociated with that contract.
Contingent liabilities are disclosed when thereis a possible obligation arising from past events,the existence of which will be confirmed only bythe occurrence or non-occurrence of one or moreuncertain future events not wholly within the controlof the Company or a present obligation that arisesfrom past events where it is either not probablethat an outflow of resources will be required tosettle the obligation or a reliable estimate of theamount cannot be made. Contingent assets areneither recognised nor disclosed in the financialstatements.
j. Earnings per share
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividingnet profit or loss for the year attributable to equity —shareholders by the weighted average numberof shares outstanding during the year. Dilutedearnings per share amounts are computed afteradjusting the effects of all dilutive potential equityshares. The number of shares used in computingdiluted earnings per share comprises the weightedaverage number of shares considered for derivingbasic earnings per share, and also the weightedaverage number of equity shares, which couldhave been issued on the conversion of all dilutivepotential shares.
The Company derives revenues primarily from saleof transformers and related services (i.e. freight,insurance and labour).
(a) Sale of goods
Revenue is recognised when a promise in a customercontract (performance obligation) has beensatisfied by transferring control over the promisedgoods to the customer. Control over a promisedgood refers to the ability to direct the use of, andobtain substantially all of the remaining benefitsfrom those goods. Control is usually transferredupon shipment, delivery to, upon receipt of goodsby the customer, in accordance with the individualdelivery and acceptance terms agreed with the
customers. Revenue towards satisfaction of aperformance obligation is measured at the amountof transaction price (net of variable consideration)allocated to that performance obligation. Thetransaction price is based on the considerationexpected to be received in exchange for goods,excluding amounts collected on behalf of thirdparties such as sales tax or other taxes directlylinked to sales. Revenue from sale of goods isrecorded net of allowances for estimated rebates,cash discounts and estimates of return of goods, allof which are established at the time of sale.
If a contract contains more than one performanceobligation, the transaction price is allocated toeach performance obligation based on theirrelative standalone selling prices. In case of anymodification to the contract, the entity recognisessuch modification as a separate contract if itincreases both the performance obligation and theconsideration due for such modification.
Arrangements with customers for sale of the goodsare either on a fixed firm price basis or variable ona key material price change basis.
Amounts due in respect of price escalationclaims and / or variation in sale are recognisedas revenue only if the contract allows for suchclaims or variations and / or there is evidencethat the customer has accepted it and it is highlyprobable that a significant reversal in the amount ofcumulative revenue recognised will not occur.
Liquidated damages/penalties, warrantiesand contingencies are provided for, based onmanagement's assessment of the estimated liability,as per the contractual terms and / or acceptance.
Revenues in excess of invoicing are classified ascontract assets (i.e. unbilled revenue).
Consideration received before the transfer ofgoods to the customers are presented as a contractliability (i.e. advance from customers).
(b) Sale of services
Revenue from services is recognised as theperformance obligation is satisfied in accordancewith the terms of the relevant contract.
Disaggregation of revenue
The Company disaggregates revenue fromcontracts with customers by the nature of salei.e. sale of transformers and sale of services andtype of contracts viz fixed price contract andvariable price contract. The Company believes thatthis disaggregation best depicts how the nature,amount, timing and uncertainty of revenues andcash flows are affected by industry, market andother economic factors. Refer Note 22.
Interest income or expense is recognised using theeffective interest method.
The 'effective interest rate' is the rate that exactlydiscounts estimated future cash payments orreceipts through the expected life of the financialinstrument to:
- the gross carrying amount of the financialasset; or
- the amortised cost of the financial liability.
In calculating interest income and expense, theeffective interest rate is applied to the grosscarrying amount of the asset (when the assetis not credit-impaired) or to the amortised costof the liability. However, for financial assets thathave become credit-impaired subsequent toinitial recognition, interest income is calculated byapplying the effective interest rate to the amortisedcost of the financial asset. If the asset is no longercredit-impaired, then the calculation of interestincome reverts to the gross basis.
m. Segment reporting
Operating segments are reported in a mannerconsistent with the internal reporting provided tothe chief operating decision maker. The Companyis engaged into the business of manufacture andsale of transformers and there are not more thanone reportable segment as envisaged by IndianAccounting Standard 108 - Segment Reporting (IndAS-108).
The Company assesses whether a contract containsa lease, at inception of a contract. A contract is,or contains, a lease if the contract conveys theright to control the use of an identified asset fora period of time in exchange for consideration. Toassess whether a contract conveys the right tocontrol the use of an identified asset, the Companyassesses whether: (i) the contract involves theuse of an identified asset (ii) the Company hassubstantially all of the economic benefits from useof the asset through the period of the lease and (iii)the Company has the right to direct the use of theasset.
The Company recognises right-of-use asset (ROU)representing its right to use the underlying assetfor the lease term at the lease commencementdate. The cost of the right-of-use asset measuredat inception shall comprise of the amount of theinitial measurement of the lease liability adjustedfor any lease payments made at or before thecommencement date less any lease incentives
received, plus any initial direct costs incurred andan estimate of costs to be incurred by the lesseein dismantling and removing the underlying assetor restoring the underlying asset or site on which itis located. The right-of-use assets is subsequentlymeasured at cost less any accumulated depreciation,accumulated impairment losses, if any and adjustedfor any remeasurement of the lease liability. Theright-of-use assets is depreciated using thestraight-line method from the commencement dateover the shorter of lease term or useful life of right-of-use asset. The estimated useful lives of right-of-use assets are determined on the same basisas those of property, plant and equipment. Right-of-use assets are tested for impairment wheneverthere is any indication that their carrying amountsmay not be recoverable. Impairment loss, if any, isrecognised in the statement of profit and loss.
The Company measures the lease liability at thepresent value of the lease payments that are notpaid at the commencement date of the lease.The lease payments are discounted using theinterest rate implicit in the lease, if that rate canbe readily determined. If that rate cannot bereadily determined, the Company uses incrementalborrowing rate. The lease payments shall includefixed payments, variable lease payments, residualvalue guarantees, exercise price of a purchaseoption where the Company is reasonably certain toexercise that option and payments of penalties forterminating the lease, if the lease term reflects thelessee exercising an option to terminate the lease.The lease liability is subsequently remeasured byincreasing the carrying amount to reflect interest onthe lease liability, reducing the carrying amount toreflect the lease payments made and remeasuringthe carrying amount to reflect any reassessmentor lease modifications or to reflect revised in¬substance fixed lease payments. The companyrecognises the amount of the re-measurement oflease liability due to modification as an adjustmentto the right-of-use asset and statement of profitand loss depending upon the nature of modification.Where the carrying amount of the right-of-useasset is reduced to zero and there is a furtherreduction in the measurement of the lease liability,the Company recognises any remaining amount ofthe re-measurement in statement of profit and loss.
The Company has elected not to apply therequirements of Ind AS 116 Leases to short-termleases of all assets that have a lease term of 12months or less and leases for which the underlyingasset is of low value. The lease payments associatedwith these leases are recognized as an expense ona straight-line basis over the lease term.
Income tax comprises current and deferred tax. It isrecognised in profit or loss except to the extent thatit relates to an item recognised directly in equity orin other comprehensive income.
(i) Current tax
Current tax comprises the expected tax payable orreceivable on the taxable income or loss for the yearand any adjustment to the tax payable or receivablein respect of previous years. The amount of currenttax reflects the best estimate of the tax amountexpected to be paid or received after consideringthe uncertainty, if any, related to income taxes. It ismeasured using tax rates (and tax laws) enacted orsubstantively enacted by the reporting date.
Current tax assets and current tax liabilities areoffset only if there is a legally enforceable right toset off the recognised amounts, and it is intendedto realise the asset and settle the liability on a netbasis or simultaneously.
Deferred tax is recognised in respect of temporarydifferences between the carrying amountsof assets and liabilities for financial reportingpurposes and the corresponding amounts used fortaxation purposes. Deferred tax is also recognised 85in respect of carried forward tax losses and taxcredits.
Deferred tax is not recognised for temporarydifferences arising on the initial recognition ofassets or liabilities in a transaction that is not abusiness combination and that affects neitheraccounting nor taxable profit or loss at the time ofthe transaction.
Deferred tax assets are recognised to the extentthat it is probable that future taxable profits willbe available against which they can be used. Theexistence of unused tax losses is strong evidencethat future taxable profit may not be available. TheCompany recognises a deferred tax asset only tothe extent that it has sufficient taxable temporarydifferences or there is convincing other evidencethat sufficient taxable profit will be availableagainst which such deferred tax asset can berealised. Deferred tax assets - unrecognised orrecognised, are reviewed at each reporting dateand are recognised / reduced to the extent that it isprobable / no longer probable respectively that therelated tax benefit will be realised.
Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates that areexpected to apply to the period when the asset isrealised or the liability is settled, based on the laws
that have been enacted or substantively enactedby the reporting date.
The measurement of deferred tax reflects the taxconsequences that would follow from the mannerin which the Company expects, at the reportingdate, to recover or settle the carrying amount of itsassets and liabilities.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if thereis a legally enforceable right to offset current taxliabilities and assets, and they relate to incometaxes levied by the same tax authority on the sametaxable entity, or on different tax entities, but theyintend to settle current tax liabilities and assets on
a net basis or their tax assets and liabilities will berealised simultaneously.
