(a) Functional and presentation of currency
The financial statements are presented in Indian Rupees, which is the Company''s functional currency and all amounts
are rounded to the nearest rupees in lakhs; except when otherwise stated.
(b) Basis of measurement
The Financial Statements have been prepared on historical cost basis, except the following:
i) Certain financial assets and liabilities are measured at fair value.
ii) Defined benefit plans - plan assets measured at fair value.
In addition, for financial reporting purpose, fair value measurements are categorised into Level 1,2 or 3 based on the
degree to which the inputs to the fair value measurements are observable and the significance of the inputs to the
fair value measurements in its entirety, which are described as follows:
- Level 1 inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access at
the measurement date;
- Level 2 inputs are inputs, other than quoted prices included within Level 1, that are observable for the asset or
liability, either directly or indirectly; and
- Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the assets or liability.
(c) Critical Accounting Judgements and Key Sources of Estimation Uncertainty
The preparation of the Company''s Financial Statements requires management to make judgement, estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amount of revenue, expenses, assets and liabilities and the accompanying
disclosures. Uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that require a material
adjustment to the carrying amount of assets or liabilities affected in next financial years.
Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an on going basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are
recognised in the period in which the estimates are revised and future periods are affected.
(i) Depreciation / Amortisation and useful lives of property, plant and equipment: Company depreciates its
tangible assets over the useful life of an Asset as prescribed under Part C of Schedule II of Companies Act, 2013.
Company remeasures remaining useful life of an asset at the end of each reporting date.
(ii) Fair value measurement: Fair Value is a price of orderly transaction between market participants at the
measurement date under current market conditions. Company determines Fair Value of Quoted Instruments
from available market price. When the fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities recorded in the
balance sheet cannot be measured based on quoted prices in active markets, their fair value is measured
using appropriate valuation techniques. The inputs to these models are taken from observable markets where
possible, but where this is not feasible, a degree of judgement is required in establishing fair values. Judgements
include considerations of inputs such as liquidity risk, credit risk and volatility.
(iii) Provisions: Provisions are recognized when there is a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of
past event; and it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation. Management
estimates it by using its best judgement of future cash outflow.
(iv) Taxes: The Company periodically assesses its liabilities and contingencies related to income taxes for all years
open to scrutiny based on latest information available. For matters where it is probable that an adjustment will be
made, the Company records its best estimates of the tax liability in the current tax provision. The Management
believes that it has adequately provided for the probable outcome of these matters.
Deferred tax assets are recognised for unused tax losses to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be
available against which the losses can be utilised. Significant management judgement is required to determine
the amount of deferred tax assets that can be recognised, based upon the likely timing and the level of future
taxable profits.
(v) Recognition and measurement of defined benefit obligations
The obligation arising from defined benefit plan is determined on the basis of actuarial assumptions. Key actuarial
assumptions include discount rate, trends in salary escalation and attrition rate. The discount rate is determined
by reference to market yields at the end of the reporting period on government securities.
(vi) Allowance for impairment of financial asset
The Company applies expected credit loss model (ECL) for measurement and recognition of impairment loss.
The Company recognises lifetime expected losses for all contract assets and / or all trade receivables that do not
constitute a financing transaction. At each reporting date, the Company assesses whether the loans have been
impaired. The Company is exposed to credit risk when the customer defaults on his contractual obligations. For
the computation of ECL, the loan receivables are classified into three stages based on the default and the ageing
outstanding. The Company recognises life time expected credit loss for trade receivables and has adopted
simplified method of computation as per Ind AS 109. The Company considers outstanding overdue for more than
90 days for calculation of expected credit loss.
(d) Current and Non-Current Classification
An asset shall be classified as current when it satisfies any of the following criteria:â
(a) it is expected to be realised in, or is intended for sale or consumption in, the Company''s normal operating cycle;
(b) it is held primarily for the purpose of being traded;
(c) it is expected to be realised within twelve months after the reporting date; or
(d) it is cash or cash equivalent unless it is restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least
twelve months after the reporting date.
All other assets shall be classified as non-current.
A liability shall be classified as current when it satisfies any of the following criteria:â
(a) it is expected to be settled in the Company''s normal operating cycle;
(b) it is held primarily for the purpose of being traded;
(c) it is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting date; or
(d) the Company does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least twelve months
after the reporting date.
Terms of a liability that could, at the option of the counterparty, result in its settlement by the issue of equity instruments
do not affect its classification.
All other liabilities shall be classified as non-current.
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and impairment, if any. Direct costs
in relation to the fixed assets are capitalized until such assets are ready for use.
(i) Tangible Assets: Depreciation on tangible assets is provided on the straight-line method over the useful lives
of assets estimated by the Management. Depreciation for assets purchased during a period is proportionately
charged. The Management estimates the useful lives and residual values of the fixed assets as prescribed under
Part C of Schedule II of the Companies Act 2013 as follows.
(ii) Intangible Assets: Intangible assets are recorded at the consideration paid for the acquisition of such assets and
are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and impairment, if any.
(iii) Deemed cost on transition to Ind AS: For transition to Ind AS, the Company had elected to continue with the
carrying value of all its Property Plant and equipment and Intangible assets as measured as per the previous
GAAP and had used that carrying value as its deemed cost on the transition date.
(f) Financials Instruments
(i) Initial Recognition
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when a Company becomes a party to the contractual
provisions of the instruments.
Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly
attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities (other than financial assets and
financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss and ancillary costs related to borrowings) are added to or
deducted from the fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition.
Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value
through profit or loss are recognised immediately in Statement of Profit and Loss.
Financial assets with embedded derivatives are considered in their entirety when determining whether their cash
flows are solely payment of principal and interest.
(ii) Classification & Measurement of Financial Assets
Financial assets are classified as ''Amortised Cost'', ''Fair Value through Profit and Loss'' (FVTPL) and ''Fair Value
through Other Comprehensive Income'' (FVTOCI) in the following categories:
Debt Instruments at amortised cost: Debt instruments that meet the following conditions are subsequently
measured at amortised cost (except for those designated at FVTPL on initial recognition)
⢠the asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold asset to collect contractual cash flows;
and
⢠the contractual terms of the instrument give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments
of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding
Debt Instruments at FVTOCI: Debt instruments that meet the following conditions are subsequently measured
at FVTOCI (except for those designated at FVTPL on initial recognition)
⢠the asset is held within a business model whose objective is achieved both by collecting contractual cash
flows and selling financial assets; and
⢠the contractual terms of the instrument give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments
of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding
Debt Instruments at FVTPL: Any debt instrument which is either initially designated at FVTPL or which does
not meets the criteria for Amortised cost or FVTOCI is measured at FVTPL.
Effective Interest Method: Interest income from debt instruments is recognised using the effective interest
rate method. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through
the expected life of the financial asset. When calculating the effective interest rate, the company estimates the
expected cash flows by considering all the contractual terms of the financial instrument (for example, prepayment,
extension, call and similar options) but does not consider the expected credit losses.
Equity Instruments at FVTOCI: On initial recognition, the Company can make an irrevocable election (on an
instrument by instrument basis) to present the subsequent changes in fair value in other comprehensive income
pertaining to investments in equity instruments. This election is not permitted if the instrument is held for trading.
The cumulative gain or loss is not reclassified to the Statement of Profit and Loss on disposal of the investment.
Financial Assets at FVTPL: Investments in equity instruments are classified at FVTPL, unless they were
irrevocably elected on initial recognition as FVOCI. Financial Assets at FVTPL are measured at Fair Value at the
end of each reporting period, with any gains or losses arising on remeasurement recognised in the Statement of
Profit and Loss.
Dividends are recognised in profit or loss only when the right to receive payment is established, it is probable
that the economic benefits associated with the dividend will flow to the Company, and the amount of the dividend
can be measured reliably.
(iii) Impairment of financial assets
The Company assesses on a forward looking basis the expected credit losses associated with its assets carried
at amortised cost, FVOCI debt instruments, and other financial assets. The impairment methodology applied
depends on whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk. Note 46 details how the Company
determines whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk.
For trade receivables only, the Company applies the simplified approach permitted by Ind AS 109 Financial
Instruments, which requires expected lifetime losses to be recognised from initial recognition of the receivables.
(iv) Derecognition of financial assets
A financial asset is derecognised only when :
⢠The Company has transferred the rights to receive cash flows from the financial asset or
⢠retains the contractual rights to receive the cash flows of the financial asset, but assumes a contractual
obligation to pay the cash flows to one or more recipients.
Where the entity has transferred an asset, the Company evaluates whether it has transferred substantially all
risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset. In such cases, the financial asset is derecognised. Where
the entity has not transferred substantially all risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset, the financial
asset is not derecognised.
Where the entity has neither transferred a financial asset nor retains substantially all risks and rewards of
ownership of the financial asset, the financial asset is derecognised if the Company has not retained control
of the financial asset. Where the Company retains control of the financial asset, the asset is continued to be
recognised to the extent of continuing involvement in the financial asset.
(v) Financial Liabilities:
Financial liabilities which are held for trading or are designated at FVTPL are measured at fair value with changes
being recognised in the statement of Proft and Loss.
Financial liabilities that are not held for trading and are not designated as at FVTPL, are measured at amortised
cost. The carrying amounts of financial liabilities that are subsequently measured at amortised cost are
determined based on the effective interest method.
(vi) Derecognition of financial liabilities
Company derecognises financial liabilities when, and only when, the company''s obligations are discharged,
cancelled or have expired. A subtantial modification in the terms of an existing financial liability is accounted
as a discharge of original financial liabilitiy and recognition of new financial liability. The difference between the
carrying amount of the financial liability derecognised and the consideration paid and payable is recognised as
profit or loss.
(vii) Offsetting financial assets and liabilities
Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount presented in the statement of financial position
when, and only when, the Company has a legal right and ability to offset the amounts and intends either to settle
on a net basis or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
(viii) Deemed cost on transition to Ind AS: For transition to Ind AS, the Company had elected to continue with the
carrying value of all its Investments and are measured as per the previous GAAP and had used that carrying
value as its deemed cost on the transition date.
(g) Derivatives financial instruments
Derivatives are initially recognised at fair value on the date a derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently
re-measured to their fair value at the end of each reporting period. The resulting gain or loss is recognised in the
Statement of Profit and Loss.
(h) Impairment of Assets
Property, plant or equipment and intangible assets with finite life are evaluated for recoverability whenever there
is any indication that their carrying amount may not be recoverable. If any such indication exists, the recoverable
amount (i.e. higher of the fair value less cost to sell and the value in use) is determined on an individual asset basis
unless the asset does not generate cash flows that are largely independent to those from other assets.
The Carrying Amount of Assets is reviewed at each Balance Sheet date if there is any indication of impairment based
on internal/external factors. An asset is treated as impaired when the carrying cost of assets exceeds its recoverable
value. An impairment loss, if any, is charged to Statement of Profit and Loss in the year in which an asset is identified
as impaired. Reversal of impairment losses recognized in prior years is recorded when there is an indication that the
impairment losses recognized for the assets no longer exists or have decreased.
(i) Cash and cash equivalents
(i) Cash and cash equivalents in the balance sheet comprise cash at bank and on hand and short-term deposit with
original maturity upto three months, which are subject to insignificant risk of changes in value.
(ii) For the purpose of presentation in the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents consists of cash and
short-term deposit, as defined above.
(j) Borrowing Cost and Finance Charges
Borrowing cost attributable to acquisition and construction of qualifying assets are capitalized as a part of the cost
of such assets up to the date when such assets are ready for its intended use. Other borrowing cost are charged to
the statement of profit and loss in the period in which they are incurred. Borrowing costs consist of interest and other
costs that an entity incurs in connection with the borrowing of funds and is measured with reference to the effective
interest rate applicable to the respective borrowings.
(k) Leases
The Company assesses whether a contract contains a lease, at inception of a contract. A contract is, or contains,
a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for
consideration. To assess whether a contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset, the Company
assesses whether: (i) the contract involves the use of an identified asset (ii) the Company has substantially all of the
economic benefits from use of the asset through the period of the lease and (iii) the Company has the right to direct
the use of the asset.
At the date of commencement of the lease, the Company recognizes a right-of-use asset and a corresponding lease
liability for all lease arrangements in which it is a lessee, except for leases with a term of twelve months or less (short¬
term leases) and low value leases. For these short-term and low value leases, the Company recognizes the lease
payments as an operating expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.
The right-of-use assets are initially recognized at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted
for any lease payments made at or prior to the commencement date of the lease plus any initial direct costs less any
lease incentives. They are subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses.
Right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Right of use assets are evaluated
for recoverability whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be
recoverable. For the purpose of impairment testing, the recoverable amount (i.e. the higher of the fair value less cost
to sell and the value-in-use) is determined on an individual asset basis unless the asset does not generate cash flows
that are largely independent of those from other assets.
The lease liability is initially measured at amortized cost at the present value of the future lease payments. The
lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if not readily determinable, using
the incremental borrowing rates in the country of domicile of these leases. Lease liabilities are remeasured with a
corresponding adjustment to the related right of use asset if the Company changes its assessment if whether it will
exercise an extension or a termination option.
Lease liability and ROU asset have been separately presented in the Balance Sheet and lease payments have been
classified as financing cash flows.
(l) Employee Benefits
Defined Contribution plan - Retirement benefit in the form of Provident Fund is a defined contribution scheme. The
Company is statutorily required to contribute a specified portion of the basic salary of an employee to a provident
fund as a part of retirement benefits to its employees. The contributions during the period are charged to statement
of profit and loss. The Company recognizes contribution payable to the Provident Fund scheme as an expenditure
when an employee renders related service. The no. of staff than 20, hence PF is not applicable to co.
Defined Benefit Plan - Gratuity, which is in the nature of Defined Benefit Schemes, are payable only to employees
and accounted for on accrual basis. The Cost of providing benefits is determined using the projected unit credit
method, with actuarial valuations being carried out at the end of each annual reporting period. Remeasurement,
comprising actuarial gains and losses are recognised in other comprehensive income in the period in which they
occur and are not reclassified to the Statement of Profit and Loss. GRATUTTY SCHEME IS NOT APPLICABLE TO
CO.
Short Term Employee Benefits - The undiscounted amount of shortnterm employee benefits expected to be paid in
exchange for the services rendered by employees are recognized during the year when the employees render the
service. These benefits include incentive which are expected to occur within twelve months after the end of the period
in which the employee renders the related service.
(m) Revenue Recognition
The Company assesses the nature,timing and extent of revenue based on performance obilgations in its contracts/
understanding/trade customs with customers & clients.
Revenue is recognised to the extent that is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Company and
the amount based on performance obligation can be reliably measured. Revenue is measured at the fair value of
consideration received or receivable taking into account the amount of discounts.
1. Revenue from Broking income is recognised on trade date basis and is exclusive of goods and service tax and
securities transaction tax (STT) wherever applicable.
2. Income related with Distribution income on Mutual Fund and other financial products is accounted on accrual
basis.
3. Dividend income is accounted for when the right to receive the income is established.
4. Difference between the sale price and the carrying value of investment is recognised as profit or loss on sale/
redemption on investment on trade date of transaction.
5. Interest income is recognised on accrual basis.
(n) Taxes on Income
The tax expenses for the period comprises of current tax and deferred income tax. Tax is recognised in statement
of profit or loss except to the extent that it relates to an item recognised directly in equity or in other comprehensive
income.
Current tax comprises the expected tax payable or receivable on the taxable income for the year and any adjustment
to the tax payable or receivable in respect of previous years. The amount of current tax reflects the best estimate of
the tax amount expected to be paid or received after considering the uncertainty, if any, related to income taxes. It is
measured using tax rates (and tax laws) enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date.
Current tax assets and current tax liabilities are offset only if there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised
amounts, and it is intended to realise the asset and settle the liability on a net basis or simultaneously.
Deferred tax is recognized in respect of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities
for financial reporting purposes and the corresponding amounts used for taxation purposes. Deferred tax is also
recognized in respect of carried forward tax losses and tax credits. Deferred tax is not recognized for:
- Temporary differences arising on the initial recognition of assets or liabilities in a transaction that is not a business
combination and that affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss at the time of transaction;
- Temporary differences related to investment in subsidiary to the extent that the Company is able to control the
timing of the reversal of the temporary differences and it is probable that they will not reverse in the foreseeable
future; and
Deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against
which the temporary difference can be utilized. The existence of unused tax losses is strong evidence that future
taxable profit may not be available. Therefore, in case of a history of recent losses the Company recognizes a deferred
tax asset only to the extent that it has sufficient taxable temporary differences or there is convincing other evidence
that sufficient taxable profit will be available against which such deferred tax asset can be realized. Deferred tax
assets- unrecognized or recognized, are reviewed at each reporting date and are recognized /reduced to the extent
that it is probable/no longer probable respectively that the related tax benefit will be realized.
Deferred tax assets include Minimum Alternative Tax (MAT) paid in accordance with the tax laws in India, which is
likely to give future economic benefits in the form of availability of set off against future income tax liability. Accordingly,
MAT is recognised as deferred tax asset in the balance sheet when the asset can be measured reliably, and it is
probable that the future economic benefit associated with asset will be realised.

2 BASIS OF PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The Financial Statements have been prepared to comply in all material aspects with Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS) notified under the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015, as amended.
These Financial Statements have been prepared on historical cost basis, except for certain financial instruments, which are measured at fair values at the end of each reporting period, as explained in the accounting policies below. Historical cost is generally based on the fair value of the consideration given in exchange for goods and services.Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date, regardless of whether that price is directly observable or estimated using another valuation technique. The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the Financial Statements are consistent with those followed in the previous year by the Company.
3 Significant Accounting Policies(a) Functional and presentation of currency
The financial statements are presented in Indian Rupees, which is the Company''s functional currency and all amounts are rounded to the nearest rupees in lakhs; except when otherwise stated.
The Financial Statements have been prepared on historical cost basis, except the following:
i) Certain financial assets and liabilities are measured at fair value.
ii) Defined benefit plans - plan assets measured at fair value.
In addition, for financial reporting purpose, fair value measurements are categorised into Level 1,2 or 3 based on the degree to which the inputs to the fair value measurements are observable and the significance of the inputs to the fair value measurements in its entirety, which are described as follows:
- Level 1 inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date;
- Level 2 inputs are inputs, other than quoted prices included within Level 1, that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and
- Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the assets or liability.
(vi) Allowance for impairment of financial asset
The Company applies expected credit loss model (ECL) for measurement and recognition of impairment loss. The Company recognises lifetime expected losses for all contract assets and / or all trade receivables that do not constitute a financing transaction. At each reporting date, the Company assesses whether the loans have been impaired. The Company is exposed to credit risk when the customer defaults on his contractual obligations. For the computation of ECL, the loan receivables are classified into three stages based on the default and the ageing outstanding. The Company recognises life time expected credit loss for trade receivables and has adopted simplified method of computation as per Ind AS 109. The Company considers outstanding overdue for more than 90 days for calculation of expected credit loss.
(d) Current and Non-Current Classification
An asset shall be classified as current when it satisfies any of the following criteria:â
(a) it is expected to be realised in, or is intended for sale or consumption in, the Company''s normal operating cycle;
(b) it is held primarily for the purpose of being traded;
(c) it is expected to be realised within twelve months after the reporting date; or
(d) it is cash or cash equivalent unless it is restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months after the reporting date.
A liability shall be classified as current when it satisfies any of the following criteria:â
(a) it is expected to be settled in the Company''s normal operating cycle;
(b) it is held primarily for the purpose of being traded;
(c) it is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting date; or
(d) the Company does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting date.
Terms of a liability that could, at the option of the counterparty, result in its settlement by the issue of equity instruments do not affect its classification.
All other liabilities shall be classified as non-current.
(e) Property, Plant and Equipment & Intangible Assets and Depreciation & Amortisation Property, Plant and Equipment
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and impairment, if any. Direct costs in relation to the fixed assets are capitalized until such assets are ready for use.
(i) Tangible Assets: Depreciation on tangible assets is provided on the straight-line method over the useful lives of assets estimated by the Management. Depreciation for assets purchased during a period is proportionately charged. The Management estimates the useful lives and residual values of the fixed assets as prescribed under Part C of Schedule II of the Companies Act 2013 as follows.
Fixed Assets Useful Life
Office Building 60 years
Office Equipments 5 years
Computer Equipments 3 years
Vehicles 8 years
Furniture and Fixtures 10 years
(ii) Intangible Assets: Intangible assets are recorded at the consideration paid for the acquisition of such assets and are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and impairment, if any.
(iii) Deemed cost on transition to Ind AS: For transition to Ind AS, the Company had elected to continue with the carrying value of all its Property Plant and equipment and Intangible assets as measured as per the previous GAAP and had used that carrying value as its deemed cost on the transition date.
(i) Initial Recognition
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when a Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instruments.
Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities (other than financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss and ancillary costs related to borrowings) are added to or deducted from the fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are recognised immediately in Statement of Profit and Loss.
Financial assets with embedded derivatives are considered in their entirety when determining whether their cash flows are solely payment of principal and interest.
(ii) Classification & Measurement of Financial Assets
Financial assets are classified as ''Amortised Cost'', ''Fair Value through Profit and Loss'' (FVTPL) and ''Fair Value through Other Comprehensive Income'' (FVTOCI) in the following categories:
Debt Instruments at amortised cost: Debt instruments that meet the following conditions are subsequently measured at amortised cost (except for those designated at FVTPL on initial recognition)
⢠the asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold asset to collect contractual cash flows; and
⢠the contractual terms of the instrument give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding
Debt Instruments at FVTOCI: Debt instruments that meet the following conditions are subsequently measured at FVTOCI (except for those designated at FVTPL on initial recognition)
⢠the asset is held within a business model whose objective is achieved both by collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets; and
⢠the contractual terms of the instrument give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding
Debt Instruments at FVTPL: Any debt instrument which is either initially designated at FVTPL or which does not meets the criteria for Amortised cost or FVTOCI is measured at FVTPL.
Effective Interest Method: Interest income from debt instruments is recognised using the effective interest rate method. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset. When calculating the effective interest rate, the company estimates the expected cash flows by considering all the contractual terms of the financial instrument (for example, prepayment, extension, call and similar options) but does not consider the expected credit losses.
Equity Instruments at FVTOCI: On initial recognition, the Company can make an irrevocable election (on an instrument by instrument basis) to present the subsequent changes in fair value in other comprehensive income pertaining to investments in equity instruments. This election is not permitted if the instrument is held for trading. The cumulative gain or loss is not reclassified to the Statement of Profit and Loss on disposal of the investment.
Financial Assets at FVTPL: Investments in equity instruments are classified at FVTPL, unless they were irrevocably elected on initial recognition as FVOCI. Financial Assets at FVTPL are measured at Fair Value at the end of each reporting period, with any gains or losses arising on remeasurement recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Dividends are recognised in profit or loss only when the right to receive payment is established, it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the dividend will flow to the Company, and the amount of the dividend can be measured reliably.
(iii) Impairment of financial assets
The Company assesses on a forward looking basis the expected credit losses associated with its assets carried at amortised cost, FVOCI debt instruments, and other financial assets. The impairment methodology applied depends on whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk. Note 46 details how the Company determines whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk.
For trade receivables only, the Company applies the simplified approach permitted by Ind AS 109 Financial Instruments, which requires expected lifetime losses to be recognised from initial recognition of the receivables.
(iv) Derecognition of financial assets
A financial asset is derecognised only when :
⢠The Company has transferred the rights to receive cash flows from the financial asset or
⢠retains the contractual rights to receive the cash flows of the financial asset, but assumes a contractual obligation to pay the cash flows to one or more recipients.
Where the entity has transferred an asset, the Company evaluates whether it has transferred substantially all risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset. In such cases, the financial asset is derecognised. Where the entity has not transferred substantially all risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset, the financial asset is not derecognised.
Where the entity has neither transferred a financial asset nor retains substantially all risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset, the financial asset is derecognised if the Company has not retained control of the financial asset. Where the Company retains control of the financial asset, the asset is continued to be recognised to the extent of continuing involvement in the financial asset.
(v) Financial Liabilities:
Financial liabilities which are held for trading or are designated at FVTPL are measured at fair value with changes being recognised in the statement of Proft and Loss.
Financial liabilities that are not held for trading and are not designated as at FVTPL, are measured at amortised cost. The carrying amounts of financial liabilities that are subsequently measured at amortised cost are determined based on the effective interest method.
(vi) Derecognition of financial liabilities
Company derecognises financial liabilities when, and only when, the company''s obligations are discharged, cancelled or have expired. A subtantial modification in the terms of an existing financial liability is accounted as a discharge of original financial liabilitiy and recognition of new financial liability. The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability derecognised and the consideration paid and payable is recognised as profit or loss.
(vii) Offsetting financial assets and liabilities
Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount presented in the statement of financial position when, and only when, the Company has a legal right and ability to offset the amounts and intends either to settle on a net basis or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
(viii) Deemed cost on transition to Ind AS: For transition to Ind AS, the Company had elected to continue with the carrying value of all its Investments and are measured as per the previous GAAP and had used that carrying value as its deemed cost on the transition date.
(g) Derivatives financial instruments
Derivatives are initially recognised at fair value on the date a derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently re-measured to their fair value at the end of each reporting period. The resulting gain or loss is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Property, plant or equipment and intangible assets with finite life are evaluated for recoverability whenever there is any indication that their carrying amount may not be recoverable. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount (i.e. higher of the fair value less cost to sell and the value in use) is determined on an individual asset basis unless the asset does not generate cash flows that are largely independent to those from other assets.
The Carrying Amount of Assets is reviewed at each Balance Sheet date if there is any indication of impairment based on internal/external factors. An asset is treated as impaired when the carrying cost of assets exceeds its recoverable value. An impairment loss, if any, is charged to
Statement of Profit and Loss in the year in which an asset is identified as impaired. Reversal of impairment losses recognized in prior years is recorded when there is an indication that the impairment losses recognized for the assets no longer exists or have decreased.

The Company assesses whether a contract contains a lease, at inception of a contract. A contract is, or contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. To assess whether a contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset, the Company assesses whether: (i) the contract involves the use of an identified asset (ii) the Company has substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the asset through the period of the lease and (iii) the Company has the right to direct the use of the asset.
At the date of commencement of the lease, the Company recognizes a right-of-use asset and a corresponding lease liability for all lease arrangements in which it is a lessee, except for leases with a term of twelve months or less (short-term leases) and low value leases. For these short-term and low value leases, the Company recognizes the lease payments as an operating expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.
The right-of-use assets are initially recognized at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or prior to the commencement date of the lease plus any initial direct costs less any lease incentives. They are subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses.
Right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Right of use assets are evaluated for recoverability whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. For the purpose of impairment testing, the recoverable amount (i.e. the higher of the fair value less cost to sell and the value-in-use) is determined on an individual asset basis unless the asset does not generate cash flows that are largely independent of those from other assets.
The lease liability is initially measured at amortized cost at the present value of the future lease payments. The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if
not readily determinable, using the incremental borrowing rates in the country of domicile of these leases. Lease liabilities are remeasured with a corresponding adjustment to the related right of use asset if the Company changes its assessment if whether it will exercise an extension or a termination option.
Lease liability and ROU asset have been separately presented in the Balance Sheet and lease payments have been classified as financing cash flows.
Defined Contribution plan - Retirement benefit in the form of Provident Fund is a defined contribution scheme.

The amount of current tax reflects the best estimate of the tax amount expected to be paid or received after considering the uncertainty, if any, related to income taxes. It is measured using tax rates (and tax laws) enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date.
Current tax assets and current tax liabilities are offset only if there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts, and it is intended to realise the asset and settle the liability on a net basis or simultaneously.
Deferred tax is recognized in respect of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the corresponding amounts used for taxation purposes. Deferred tax is also recognized in respect of carried forward tax losses and tax credits. Deferred tax is not recognized for:
- Temporary differences arising on the initial recognition of assets or liabilities in a transaction that is not a business combination and that affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss at the time of transaction;
- Temporary differences related to investment in subsidiary to the extent that the Company is able to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences and it is probable that they will not reverse in the foreseeable future; and
Deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the temporary difference can be utilized. The existence of unused tax losses is strong evidence that future taxable profit may not be available. Therefore, in case of a history of recent losses the Company recognizes a deferred tax asset only to the extent that it has sufficient taxable temporary differences or there is convincing other evidence that sufficient taxable profit will be available against which such deferred tax asset can be realized. Deferred tax assets- unrecognized or recognized, are reviewed at each reporting date and are recognized /reduced to the extent that it is probable/no longer probable respectively that the related tax benefit will be realized.
Deferred tax assets include Minimum Alternative Tax (MAT) paid in accordance with the tax laws in India, which is likely to give future economic benefits in the form of availability of set off against future income tax liability. Accordingly, MAT is recognised as deferred tax asset in the balance sheet when the asset can be measured reliably, and it is probable that the future economic benefit associated with asset will be realised.
(o) Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets
Provisions are recognized when there is a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of past event; and it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation, in respect of which a reliable estimate can be made.
Provisions (excluding retirement benefits) are not discounted to its present value and are determined based on best estimate required to settle the obligation at the Balance Sheet date, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation.
Contingent Liabilities are possible but not probable obligations as on the Balance Sheet date, based on the available evidence. Contingent Liabilities are not recognised in the financial statements.
