1.9. Provisions, Contingent Liabilities & Contingent Assets and Commitments
i) Provisions are recognised when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, if it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. Such provisions are determined based on management estimate of the amount required to settle the obligation at the Balance Sheet date. When the Company expects some or all of a provision to be reimbursed, the reimbursement is recognised as a separate asset only when the reimbursement is certain. The expense relating to a provision is presented in the Statement of Profit and Loss net of any reimbursement, if any.
ii) The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present
obligation at the balance sheet date, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation.
iii) If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre-tax rate that
reflects, when appropriate, the risks specific to the liability. When discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised as a finance cost.
iv) Contingent liability is a possible obligation arising from past events and whose existence will be confirmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of the entity or a present obligation that arises from past events but is not recognized because; it is not probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation or the amount of the obligation cannot be measured with sufficient reliability.
v) A contingent asset is a possible asset that arises from past events and whose existence will be confirmed only by- the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of the entity. The Company does not recognize the contingent asset in its standalone financial statements since this may result in the recognition of income that may never be realised.
vi) If it is virtually certain that an inflow of economic benefits will arise, the asset and related income are recognised in the period in which the change occurs.
vii) Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets are reviewed at each reporting date.
1.10. Income Taxes
The tax expense for the period comprises current and deferred tax.
Income Tax expense is recognised in Statement of Profit and Loss, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised
in the other comprehensive income or in equity. In which case, the tax is also recognised in other comprehensive income
or equity respectively.
i) Current tax
Current tax is the amount of income taxes payable (recoverable) in respect of taxable profit (tax loss) for a period.
Current tax assets and liabilities are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation
authorities, based on tax rates and laws that are enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.
Current tax assets and tax liabilities are offset where the Company has a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
ii) Deferred tax
Deferred tax is recognised on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit for financial reporting purposes at the reporting date. Deferred tax liabilities and assets are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period, in which, the liability is settled or the asset realised, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. The carrying amount of deferred tax liabilities and assets are reviewed at the end of each reporting period.
The Company offsets deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities if and only if it has a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets and current tax liabilities and the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either the same taxable entity which intends either to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis, or to realise the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously, in each future period in which significant amounts of deferred tax liabilities or assets are expected to be settled or recovered.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if there is a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred tax asset to be utilised. Unrecognised deferred tax assets are re-assessed at each reporting date and are recognised to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profits will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered.
iii) Uncertain Tax Position
Accruals for uncertain tax positions require management to make judgments of potential exposures. Accruals for uncertain tax positions are measured using either the most likely amount or the expected value amount depending on which method the entity expects to better predict the resolution of the uncertainty. Tax benefits are not recognised unless the management, based upon its interpretation of applicable laws and regulations and the expectation of how the tax authority will resolve the matter, concludes that such benefits will be accepted by the authorities. Once considered probable of not being accepted, management review each material tax benefit and reflects the effect of the uncertainty in determining the related taxable amounts.
1.11. Foreign Currency Transactions
Transactions and balances
i) Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded at the exchange rate prevailing on the date of transaction.
Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the functional currency closing rates of exchange at the reporting date.
ii) Exchange differences arising on settlement or translation of monetary items are recognised in Statement of Profit and Loss except to the extent of exchange differences which are regarded as an adjustment to interest costs on foreign currency borrowings that are directly attributable to the acquisition or construction of qualifying assets, are capitalised as cost of assets.
iii) Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are recorded using the exchange rates at the date of the transaction. Non-monetary items measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value was measured. The gain or loss arising on translation of non-monetary items measured at fair value is treated in line with the recognition of the gain or loss on the change in fair value of the item (i.e., translation differences on items whose fair value gain or loss is recognised in Other Comprehensive Income (OCI) or Statement of Profit and Loss are also recognised in OCI or Statement of Profit and Loss, respectively).
1.12. Employee Benefit Expense
i) Short-Term Employee Benefits
The undiscounted amount of short-term employee benefits expected to be paid in exchange for the services rendered by employees are recognised as an expense during the period when the employees render the services.
A liability is recognised for benefits accruing to employees in respect of wages and salaries, annual leave and sick/ contingency leave in the year the related service is rendered at the undiscounted amount of the benefits expected to be paid in exchange for that service.
Accumulated leave, which is expected to be utilised within the next 12 months, is treated as short-term employee benefit. The Company measures the expected cost of such absences as the additional amount that it expects to pay as a result of the unused entitlement that has accumulated at the reporting date. The Company recognizes expected cost of short-term employee benefit as an expense, when an employee renders the related service.
The Company treats accumulated leave expected to be carried forward beyond twelve months, as long-term employee benefit for measurement purposes. Such long-term compensated absences are provided for based on the actuarial valuation using the projected unit credit method at the reporting date. Actuarial gains/ losses are immediately taken to the statement of profit and loss and are not deferred. The obligations are presented as current liabilities in the balance sheet if the entity does not have an unconditional right to defer the settlement for at least twelve months after the reporting date.
ii) Post-Employment Benefits Defined Contribution Plans
A defined contribution plan is a post-employment benefit plan under which the Company pays specified contributions to a separate entity. The Company makes specified monthly contributions towards Provident Fund. The Company's contribution is recognised as an expense in the Statement of Profit and Loss during the period in which the employee renders the related service. If the contribution payable to the scheme for service received before the balance sheet date exceeds the contribution already paid, the deficit payable to the scheme is recognized as a liability after deducting the contribution already paid.
Defined Benefits Plans
The Company operates a defined benefit gratuity plan, which requires contributions to be made to a separately administered fund.
The cost of the defined benefit plan and other post-employment benefits and the present value of such obligations are determined using actuarial valuations being carried out at the end of each annual reporting period. An actuarial valuation involves making various assumptions that may differ from actual developments in the future. These include the determination of the discount rate, future salary increases, mortality rates and future pension increases. Due to the complexities involved in the valuation and its long-term nature, a defined benefit obligation is highly sensitive to changes in these assumptions. All assumptions are reviewed at each reporting date.
The Company pays gratuity to the employees whoever has completed five years of service with the Company at the time of resignation/superannuation. The gratuity is paid @15 days salary for every completed year of service as per the Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972.
The gratuity liability amount is contributed to the approved gratuity fund formed exclusively for gratuity payment to the employees. The gratuity fund has been approved by the Indian Income Tax authorities.
The liability in respect of gratuity and other post-employment benefits is calculated using the Projected Unit Credit Method and spread over the period during which the benefit is expected to be derived from employees' services.
Remeasurements, comprising of actuarial gains and losses, the effect of the asset ceiling, excluding amounts included in net interest on the net defined benefit liability and the return on plan assets (excluding amounts included in net interest on the net defined benefit liability), are recognised immediately in the balance sheet with a corresponding debit or credit to retained earnings through OCI in the period in which they occur.
Remeasurements are not reclassified to profit or loss in subsequent periods.
Past service costs are recognised in profit or loss on the earlier of:
Ý The date of the plan amendment or curtailment, and
Ý The date that the Company recognises related restructuring costs.
Net interest is calculated by applying the discount rate to the net defined benefit liability or asset. The Company recognises the following changes in the net defined benefit obligation as an expense in the Standalone statement of profit and loss:
Ý Service costs comprising current service costs, past-service costs, gains and losses on curtailments and non-routine settlements; and
Ý Net interest expense or income.
1.13. Revenue from contract with customer
i) Sales of goods
The Company derives revenue primarily from sale of tyre bead wire and other ancillary products.
Revenue from contracts with customers is recognised when control of the goods is transferred to the customer at an amount that reflects the consideration entitled in exchange for those goods. The Company is generally the principal in its revenue arrangements as it typically controls the goods before transferring them to the customer and is exposed to inventory and credit risks. Control is transferred upon shipment of goods to the customer or when the goods is made available to the customer, provided transfer of title to the customer occurs and the Company has not retained any significant risks of ownership or future obligations with respect to the goods shipped. The normal credit terms range from 0 to 120 days.
Revenue is stated net of goods and service tax and net of returns, chargebacks and rebates. These are calculated on the basis of the specific terms in the individual contracts.
Revenue is measured at the amount of consideration which the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for transferring distinct goods to a customer as specified in the contract, excluding amounts collected on behalf of third parties (for example taxes and duties collected on behalf of the government). Consideration is generally due upon satisfaction of performance obligations and a receivable is recognised when it becomes unconditional.
The Company provides volume rebate to certain customers once the quantity of products purchased during the period exceeds a threshold specified and also accrues discounts to certain customers based on customary business practices. Consideration is determined based on its most likely amount.
Revenue from rendering of services is recognised when the performance of agreed contractual task has been completed.
ii) Interest Income
Interest income from a financial asset is recognised using effective interest method.
Interest income from a financial asset is recognised when it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Company and the amount of income can be measured reliably. Interest income is accrued on a time basis, by reference to the principal outstanding and at the effective interest rate applicable, which is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset to that asset's net carrying amount on initial recognition.
iii) Dividends
Dividend income is recognised when the Company's right to receive the payment has been established, which is generally when shareholders approve the dividend.
iv) Rental Income
Rental Income is recognised when the Company's right to receive the payment has been established.
v) Export Incentive
Export incentives receivable are accounted for when the right to receive the credit is established and there is no significant uncertainty regarding the ultimate collection of export proceeds.
vi) Other Operating Income vi.a. Insurance Claims
Insurance claims are accounted for based on claims admitted/ expected to be admitted to the extent that there is no uncertainty in receiving the claims.
vi.b. Sale of Scrap
Revenue from the sale of scrap is recognized at the point of sale when the significant risks and rewards of ownership have transferred to the buyer. The sale proceeds are recorded under "Other Operating Income".
vii) Contract balances Contract assets
A contract asset is the right to consideration in exchange for goods transferred to the customer. If the Company performs by transferring goods to a customer before the customer pays consideration or before payment is due, a contract asset is recognised for the earned consideration that is conditional.
Trade Receivables
A receivable represents the Company's right to an amount of consideration that is unconditional (i.e., only the passage of time is required before payment of the consideration is due). Refer to accounting policies of financial assets in section (n) (i) Financial instruments - initial recognition and subsequent measurement.
Contract Liabilities
A contract liability is the obligation to transfer goods or services to a customer for which the Company has received consideration (or an amount of consideration is due) from the customer. If a customer pays consideration before the Company transfers goods or services to the customer, a contract liability is recognised when the payment is made, or the payment is due (whichever is earlier). Contract liabilities are recognised as revenue when the Company performs under the contract.
Refund liabilities
A refund liability is the obligation to refund some or all of the consideration received (or receivable) from the customer and is measured at the amount the Company ultimately expects it will have to return to the customer including volume rebates and discounts. The Company updates its estimates of refund liabilities at the end of each reporting period.
viii) Costs to fulfil a contract i.e. freight, insurance and other selling expenses are recognised as an expense in the period in which related revenue is recognised.
1.14. Impairment of non-financial assets
i) The Company assesses at each reporting date as to whether there is any indication that any property, plant and equipment and intangible assets or group of assets, called Cash Generating Units (CGU) may be impaired. If any such indication exists the recoverable amount of an asset or CGU is estimated to determine the extent of impairment, if any. When it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Company estimates the recoverable amount of the CGU to which the asset belongs.
ii) The goodwill on business combinations is tested for impairment annually.
iii) The recoverable amount of an asset or cash generating unit is the greater of its value in use and its fair value less costs to sell. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset or the cash-generating unit for which the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted.
iv) The carrying amounts of the Company's non-financial assets are reviewed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, then the asset's recoverable amount is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss, if any.
v) An impairment loss is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss to the extent, asset's carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount.
vi) The impairment loss recognised in prior accounting period is assessed at each reporting date for any indications that the loss has decreased or no longer exists and is reversed if there has been a change in the estimate of recoverable amount. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset's carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortisation, if no impairment loss had been recognised.
1.15. Financial Instruments
A contract is recognised as a financial instrument that gives rise to a financial asset of one entity and a financial liability or equity instrument of another entity.
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when an entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
i) Financial Assets
i.a. Initial recognition and measurement
The classification of financial assets at initial recognition depends on the financial asset's contractual cash flow characteristics and the Company's business model for managing them.
With the exception of trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component or for which the Company has applied the practical expedient, the Company initially measures a financial asset at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial asset not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs.
Trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component or for which the Company has applied the practical expedient are measured at the transaction price determined under Ind AS 115. Refer to the accounting policies in section (m) Revenue from contracts with customers.
Financial assets classified and measured at amortised cost are held within a business model with the objective to hold financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows while financial assets classified and measured at fair value through OCI are held within a business model with the objective of both holding to collect contractual cash flows and selling.
All financial assets and liabilities are initially recognised at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities, which are not at fair value through profit or loss, are adjusted to the fair value on initial recognition. Purchase and sale of financial assets are recognised using trade date accounting.
i.b. Subsequent measurement
For the purpose of subsequent measurement financial assets are classified into three categories:
Ý Financial assets at amortised cost (debt instruments)
Ý Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income . (FVTOCI)
Ý with recycling of cumulative gains and losses (debt instruments)
Ý with no recycling of cumulative gains and losses upon . derecognition (equity instruments)
Ý Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
i.c. Financial assets carried at amortised cost
A financial asset is measured at amortised cost if it is held within a business model whose objective is to hold the asset in order to collect contractual cash flows and the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
After initial measurement, such financial assets are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate (EIR) method. Amortised cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of the EIR.
Impairment of investments
The Company reviews it carrying value of investments carried at cost annually, or more frequently when there is indication for impairment. If the recoverable amount is less than it carrying amount, the impairment loss is recorded in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
i.d. Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI) and fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL)
During the reporting period, there are no instruments under Fair Value through Other Comprehensive Income and Fair Value through Profit or Loss. Hence, accounting policy regarding the same is not given.
i.e. Derecognition
A financial asset is primarily derecognised (i.e., removed from the Company's balance sheet) when:
Ý The contractual rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired, or
Ý The Company has transferred its rights to receive contractual cash flows from the asset or has assumed an obligation to pay the received cash flows in full without material delay to a third party under a 'pass-through' arrangement, and either (a) the Company has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, or (b) the Company has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, but has transferred control of the asset.
On derecognition of a financial asset in its entirety, the difference between the asset's carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received and receivable recognised in profit or loss.
i.f. Investment in the nature of equity in subsidiaries
A subsidiary is an entity that is controlled by another entity.
The Company's investments in its subsidiaries are accounted at cost less impairment.
The Company has elected to measure investment in subsidiary at cost in the separate financial statements in accordance with the option available in Ind AS 27, 'Separate Financial Statements'. On the date of transition, the carrying amount has been considered as deemed cost.
i. g. Impairment of financial assets
In accordance with Ind AS 109, the Company applies 'Expected Credit Loss' (ECL) model, for evaluating impairment of financial assets other than those measured at fair value through profit and loss (FVTPL).
Expected Credit loss is the difference between all contractual cash flows that are due to the Company in accordance with the contract and all the cash flows that the Company expects to receive (i.e. all cash shortfalls). The Company estimates cash flows by considering all contractual terms of the financial instrument.
ECLs are recognised in two stages. For credit exposures for which there has not been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition, ECLs are provided for credit losses that result from default events that are possible within the next 12-months (a 12-month ECL). For those credit exposures for which there has been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition, a loss allowance is required for credit losses expected over the remaining life of the exposure, irrespective of the timing of the default (a lifetime ECL).
For trade receivables and contract assets, the Company applies a simplified approach in calculating ECLs. Therefore, the Company does not track changes in credit risk, but instead recognises a loss allowance based on lifetime ECLs at each reporting date. The Company has established a provision matrix that is based on its historical credit loss experience, adjusted for forward-looking factors specific to the debtors and the economic environment.
ii. Financial Liabilities
Classification as debt or equity
Debt and equity instruments issued by the Company are classified as either financial liabilities or as equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangements and the definitions of a financial liability and an equity instrument.
ii. a. Equity instruments
An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of an entity after deducting all of its liabilities. Equity instruments issued by the Company are recognised at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs.
ii.b. Financial liabilities
ii.b.1 Initial recognition and measurement
Financial liabilities are classified, at initial recognition, as financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, loans and borrowings, payables as appropriate.
All financial liabilities are initially recognised at fair value and in case of loans, borrowings and payables, net of directly attributable transaction cost. Fees of recurring nature are directly recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss as finance cost.
The Company's financial liabilities include trade and other payables, loans and borrowings including bank overdrafts and financial guarantee contracts.
ii.b.2 Subsequent measurement
For purposes of subsequent measurement, financial liabilities are classified as:
Ý Financial liabilities at amortised cost (loans and borrowings)
This is the category most relevant to the Company. After initial recognition, interest-bearing loans and borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the EIR method. Gains and losses are recognised in profit or loss when the liabilities are derecognised as well as through the EIR amortisation process.
Amortised cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of the EIR. The EIR amortisation is included as finance costs in the statement of profit and loss.
For trade and other payables maturing within one year from the Balance Sheet date, the carrying amounts approximate fair value due to the short maturity of these.
ii) Effective interest method
The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a debt instrument and of allocating interest income over the relevant year. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the debt instrument, or, where appropriate, a shorter year, to the net carrying amount on initial recognition.
ii.b.4 Derecognition
A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires. When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as the derecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability. The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability derecognised and the consideration paid and payable is recognised in profit or loss.
ii.c. Financial Guarantee Contracts
Financial guarantee contracts are those contracts that require a payment to be made to reimburse the holder for a loss it incurs because the specified debtor fails to make a payment when due in accordance with the terms of a debt instrument. Financial guarantee contracts are recognised initially as a liability at fair value, adjusted for transaction costs that are directly attributable to the issuance of the guarantee.
Subsequently, the liability is measured at the higher of the amount of loss allowance determined as per impairment requirements of Ind AS 109 and the amount recognised less, when appropriate, the cumulative amount of income recognised in accordance with the principles of Ind AS 115.
ii. d. Offsetting of financial instruments
Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the Standalone balance sheet if there is a currently enforceable legal right to offset the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis, to realise the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.
iii. Derivative financial instruments and Hedge Accounting
The Company uses various derivative financial instruments such as interest rate swaps, currency swaps and forwards & options to mitigate the risk of changes in interest rates and exchange rates. Such derivative financial instruments are initially recognised at fair value on the date on which a derivative contract is entered into and are also subsequently measured at fair value. Derivatives are carried as financial assets when the fair value is positive and as financial liabilities when the fair value is negative.
Any gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value of derivatives are taken directly to Statement of Profit and Loss, except for the effective portion of cash flow hedges which is recognised in Other Comprehensive Income and later to Statement of Profit and Loss when the hedged item affects profit or loss or treated as basis adjustment if a hedged forecast transaction subsequently results in the recognition of a non-financial assets or non-financial liability.
iv. Hedges that meet the criteria for hedge accounting are accounted for as follows
iv. a. Cash Flow Hedge
The Company designates derivative contracts or non-derivative financial assets / liabilities as hedging instruments to mitigate the risk of movement in interest rates and foreign exchange rates for foreign exchange exposure on highly probable future cash flows attributable to a recognised asset or liability or forecast cash transactions. When a derivative is designated as a cash flow hedging instrument, the effective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is recognized in the cash flow hedging reserve being part of other comprehensive income. Any ineffective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is recognised immediately in the Statement of Profit and Loss. If the hedging relationship no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting, then hedge accounting is discontinued prospectively. If the hedging instrument expires or is sold, terminated or exercised, the cumulative gain or loss on the hedging instrument recognized in cash flow hedging reserve till the period the hedge was effective remains in cash flow hedging reserve until the underlying transaction occurs. The cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in the cash flow hedging reserve is transferred to the Statement of Profit and Loss upon the occurrence of the underlying transaction. If the forecasted transaction is no longer expected to occur, then the amount accumulated in cash flow hedging reserve is reclassified in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
iv.b. Fair Value Hedge
The Company designates derivative contracts or non-derivative financial assets / liabilities as hedging instruments to mitigate the risk of change in fair value of hedged item due to movement in interest rates and foreign exchange rates.
Changes in the fair value of hedging instruments and hedged items that are designated and qualify as fair value hedges are recorded in the Statement of Profit and Loss. If the hedging relationship no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting, the adjustment to the carrying amount of a hedged item for which the effective interest method is used is amortised to Statement of Profit and Loss over the period of maturity.
o) Current and Non-current classification
The Company presents assets and liabilities in the Balance Sheet based on current / non-current classification.
ii) An asset is treated as current when it is:
Ý Expected to be realised or intended to be sold or consumed in normal operating cycle;
Ý Held primarily for the purpose of trading;
Ý Expected to be realised within twelve months after the reporting period, or
Ý Cash or cash equivalent unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period.
All other assets are classified as non-current.
iii) A liability is current when:
Ý It is expected to be settled in normal operating cycle;
Ý It is held primarily for the purpose of trading;
Ý It is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period, or
Ý There is no unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the
reporting period.
The Company classifies all other liabilities as non-current.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as non-current assets and liabilities.
The operating cycle is the time between the acquisition of assets for processing and their realisation in cash and cash equivalents. The Company has identified twelve months as its operating cycle.
p) Earnings Per Share
ii) Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing the net profit or loss for the period attributable to equity shareholders by weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period. The weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period are adjusted for events of bonus issue; bonus element in a right issue to existing shareholders.
iii) For the purpose of calculating diluted earnings per share, the net profit or loss for the year attributable to equity shareholders and the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year are adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potential equity shares.
iv) The number of equity shares and potentially dilutive equity shares are adjusted retrospectively for all periods presented for any share splits and bonus shares issues including for changes effected prior to the approval of the financial statements by the Board of Directors.
q) Dividend
The Company recognises a liability to pay dividend to equity holders of the Company when the distribution is authorised, and the distribution is no longer at the discretion of the Company. As per the corporate laws in India, a distribution is authorised when it is approved by the shareholders. A corresponding amount is recognised directly in equity.
r) Cash and Cash equivalents
ii) Cash and Cash equivalents in the balance sheet comprise cash at banks and on hand, short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.
iii) Statement of Cash Flows is prepared in accordance with the Indirect Method prescribed in the Indian Accounting Standard-7 'Statement of Cash Flows'.
s) Operating Segments
The operating segments are identified on the basis of business activities whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the Chief Operating Decision Maker of the Company and for which the discrete financial information is available. The Company has only one reportable operating segment i.e. "Tyre Bead Wire".
The Board of directors of the Company has been identified as the Chief Operating Decision Maker which reviews and assesses the financial performance and makes the strategic decisions.
t) Exceptional items
Exceptional items refer to items of income or expense, including tax items, within the statement of profit and loss from ordinary activities which are non-recurring and are of such size, nature or incidence that their separate disclosure is considered necessary to explain the performance of the Company.
u) Government Grants
Government grants are recognised where there is reasonable assurance that the grant will be received, ultimate collection of the grant/subsidy is reasonably certain and all attached conditions will be complied with. When the grant relates to an expense item, it is recognised as income on a systematic basis over the periods that the related costs, for which it is intended to compensate, are expensed. When the grant relates to an asset, it is recognised as reduced depreciation expense in equal amounts over the expected useful life of the related asset.
When the company receives grants of non-monetary assets, the asset and the grant are recorded at fair value amounts and released to profit or loss over the expected useful life in a pattern of consumption of the benefit of the underlying asset i.e. by equal annual instalments.
The government grants in the form of subsidy are presented in the balance sheet by deducting it from the carrying amount of the eligible assets on a pro rata basis. The grant is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss over the life of a depreciable asset as a reduced depreciation expense.
v) Acceptances
The Company enters into deferred payment arrangements (acceptances) whereby overseas lenders such as banks and other financial institutions make payments to supplier's banks for import of raw materials and property, plant and equipment. The banks and financial institutions are subsequently repaid by the Company at a later date
providing working capital benefits. These arrangements are in the nature of credit extended in normal operating cycle and these arrangements for raw materials are recognised as Acceptances and arrangements for property, plant and equipment are recognised as borrowings. Interest borne by the company on such arrangements is accounted as finance cost. Other financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Payments made by banks and financial institutions to the operating vendors are treated as a non-cash item and settlement of operational acceptances by the Company is treated as cash flows from operating activity reflecting the substance of the payment.
2) New and amended standards
The Ministry of Corporate Affairs has notified Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Amendment Rules, 2024 dated 12th August, 2024 notifying Ind AS 117 - Insurance Contracts. The company does not have any insurance contracts to which Ind AS 117 will apply..
3) Critical Accounting Judgments and key sources of estimation uncertainty
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with the Ind AS requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and the accompanying disclosures as at date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of the revenues and expenses for the years presented. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions. The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.
i) Key sources of estimation uncertainty
a) Revenue Recognition
The Company's contracts with customers include promises to transfer goods to the customers. Judgement is required to determine the transaction price for the contract.
The transaction price could be either a fixed amount of customer consideration or variable consideration with elements such as schemes, incentives and cash discounts, among others. The estimated amount of variable consideration is adjusted in the transaction price only to the extent that it is highly probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognised will not occur and is reassessed at the end of each year.
Estimates of rebates and discounts are sensitive to changes in circumstances and the Company's past experience regarding returns and rebate entitlements may not be representative of customers' actual returns and rebate entitlements in the future.
b) Depreciation / amortisation and useful lives of property plant and equipment / intangible assets
Property, plant and equipment / intangible assets are depreciated / amortised over their estimated useful lives, after taking into account estimated residual value. Management reviews the estimated useful lives and residual values of the assets annually in order to determine the amount of depreciation / amortisation to be recorded at each year end.
The useful lives and residual values are based on the Company's historical experience with similar assets and take into account anticipated technological changes. The depreciation / amortisation for future periods is revised if there are significant changes from previous estimates.
c) Recoverability of trade receivable
Judgements are required in assessing the recoverability of overdue trade receivables and determining whether a provision against those receivables is required. Factors considered include the credit rating of the counterparty, the amount and timing of anticipated future payments and any possible actions that can be taken to mitigate the risk of non-payment.
d) Provisions
Provisions and liabilities are recognized in the period when it becomes probable that there will be a future outflow of funds resulting from past operations or events and the amount of cash outflow can be reliably estimated. The timing of recognition and quantification of the liability requires the application of judgment to existing facts and circumstances, which can be subject to change. The carrying amounts of provisions and liabilities are reviewed regularly and revised to take account of changing facts and circumstances.
e) Impairment of non-financial assets
The Company assesses the chances of an asset getting impaired on each reporting date. If any indication exists, the Company estimates the asset's recoverable amount. An asset's recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs of disposal of an asset or Cash Generating Unit (CGU) and its value in use. It is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets or a group of assets. Where the carrying amount of an asset or CGU exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount.
In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. In determining fair value less costs of disposal, recent market transactions are taken into account, if no such transactions can be identified, an appropriate valuation model is used.
f) Impairment of financial assets
The impairment provisions for financial assets are based on assumptions about risk of default and expected cash loss rates. The Company uses judgment in making these assumptions and selecting the inputs to the impairment calculation, based on Company's past history, existing market conditions as well as forward looking estimates at the end of each reporting period.
g) Contingencies
In the normal course of business, contingent liabilities may arise from litigation and other claims against the Company. Potential liabilities that are possible but not probable of crystalising or are very difficult to quantify reliably are treated as contingent liabilities. Such liabilities are disclosed in the notes but are not recognised. The cases which have been determined as remote by the Company are not disclosed.
Contingent assets are neither recognised nor disclosed in the financial statements unless when an inflow of economic benefits is probable.

d Leverage optimally in order to maximize shareholder returns while maintaining strength and flexibility of the

This framework is adjusted based on underlying macro-economic factors affecting business environment, financial market conditions and interest rates environment.
The Company monitors capital on the basis of the carrying amount of debt less cash and cash equivalents, bank balances (excluding earmarked balances with banks.
Ensure financial flexibility and diversify sources of financing and their maturities to minimize liquidity risk while meeting investment requirements.
47.2 The fair value of Forward Foreign Exchange contracts is determined using forward exchange rates at the Balance Sheet date.
47.3 AH foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities are translated using exchange rate at reporting date.
48. Financial Risk Management:
The Company's activities expose it to a variety of financial risks, including market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk.
The Company's risk management assessment and policies and processes are established to identify and analyse the risks faced by the Company, to set appropriate risk limits and controls, and to monitor such risks and compliance with the same.
Risk assessment and management policies and processes are reviewed regularly to reflect changes in market conditions and the Company's activities.
48.1 Credit Risk
Credit risk is the risk that a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations causing financial loss to the company.
Credit risk arises mainly from the outstanding receivables from customers.
Credit risk is managed through credit approvals, establishing credit limits and continuously monitoring the creditworthiness of counterparty to which the Company grants credit terms in the normal course of business.
The Company has used expected credit loss (ECL) model for assessing the impairment loss.
For the purpose, the Company uses a provision matrix to compute the expected credit loss amount.
48. Financial Risk Management: Contd.
48.3 Market risk
Market risk is the risk of loss of future earnings, fair values or future cash flows that may result from adverse changes in market rates and prices (such as interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates) or in the price of market risk-sensitive instruments as a result of such adverse changes in market rates and prices.
Market risk is attributable to all market risk-sensitive financial instruments, all foreign currency receivables and payables and all short term and long term debt.
The Company is exposed to market risk primarily related to foreign exchange rate risk.
Thus, the Company's exposure to market risk is a function of investing and borrowing activities and revenue generating and operating activities in foreign currencies.
48.4 Foreign exchange risk:
The Company's foreign exchange risk arises from its foreign operations, foreign currency revenues and expenses, (primarily in US Dollars and Euros).
As a result, if the value of the Indian rupee appreciates relative to these foreign currencies, the Company's revenues and expenses measured in Indian rupees may decrease or increase and vice-versa.
The exchange rate between the Indian rupee and these foreign currencies have changed substantially in recent periods and may continue to fluctuate substantially in the future.
Consequently, the Company uses both derivative and non-derivative financial instruments, such as foreign exchange forward contracts, option contracts, currency swap contracts and foreign currency financial liabilities, to mitigate the risk of changes in foreign currency exchange rates in respect of its highly probable forecasted transactions and recognised assets and liabilities.
b Sensitivity
For the years ended March 31, 2025 and March 31, 2024, every 1% strengthening of the Indian rupee against foreign currency (US Dollar) for the above mentioned financial assets/Liabilities would decrease the Company's profit and equity approximately INR 8 Lakh and decrease the Company's profit & equity by approximately INR 2 Lakh respectively.
For the years ended March 31, 2025 and March 31, 2024, every 1% strengthening of the Indian rupee against foreign currency (Rubel) for the above mentioned financial assets/liabilities would decrease the Company's profit and equity approximately INR NIL and decrease the Company's profit & equity by approximately INR 0.02 Lakhs respectively.
For the years ended March 31, 2025 and March 31, 2024, every 1% strengthening of the Indian rupee against foreign currency (Euro) for the above mentioned financial assets/liabilities would decrease the Company's profit and equity approximately INR 0.22 Lakhs and decrease the Company's profit & equity NIL respectively.
A 1% weakening of the Indian rupee and the respective currencies would lead to an equal but opposite effect.
48.5 Interest rate risk
The Company has loan facilities on floating interest rate, which exposes the Company to risk of changes in interest rates. The Company's Finance Department monitors the interest rate movement and manages the interest rate risk by evaluating interest rate swaps etc. based on the market / risk perception.
For the years ended March 31, 2025 and March 31, 2024, every 1% change in interest rate for the above mentioned financial liabilities would decrease the Company's profit equity by approximately INR 18 Lakhs and decrease the Company's profit & equity by approximately INR 13 Lakhs respectively.
A 1% increase in interest rate would lead to an equal but opposite effect.
As at March 31, 2025 and March 31, 2024, the Company has loan facilities which are either on fixed interest rates or are managed by interest rate swaps, hence the Company is not exposed to interest rate risk.
48.6 Commodity rate risk
Exposure to market risk with respect to commodity prices primarily arises from the Company's purchases of raw materials. These are commodity products, whose prices may fluctuate significantly over short periods of time.
The prices of the Company's raw materials generally fluctuate in line with commodity cycles, although the prices of raw materials used in the Company's business are generally more volatile.
Cost of raw materials forms the largest portion of the Company's cost of revenues.
Commodity price risk exposure is evaluated and managed through operating procedures and sourcing policies.
The company's commodity risk is managed through well-established trading operations and control processes.
In accordance with the risk management policy, the Company carefully caliberates the timing and the quantity of purchase. As of March 31, 2025 and March 31, 2024, the Company had not entered into any material derivative contracts to hedge exposure to fluctuations in commodity prices.
48.8 Interest rate benchmark reforms
The Company does not have any financial instruments which are subject to benchmark reforms.
The Company does not have any risk of being exposed to interest rate benchmark reforms.
49. Employee benefits:
49.1 Defined contribution plan
Contributions are made to Regional Provident Fund (RPF), Family Pension Fund, Employees State Insurance Scheme (ESIC) and other Funds which covers all regular employees.
While both the employees and the Company make predetermined contributions to the Provident Fund and ESIC, contribution to the Family Pension Fund and other Statutory Funds are made only by the Company.
The contributions are normally based on a certain percentage of the employee's salary.
Amount recognised as expense in respect of these defined contribution plans, aggregate to INR 116 lakhs (March 31, 2024 : INR 125 lakhs).
49.2 Employee benefit plans:

The level of benefit provided depends on the member's length of service and salary at the time of retirement/termination age. Provision for gratuity is based on actuarial valuation done by an independent actuary as at the year end.
Each year, the Company reviews the level of funding in gratuity fund and decides its contribution.
The Company aims to keep annual contributions relatively stable at a level such that the fund assets meets the requirements of gratuity payments in short to medium term.
Risks
These plans typically expose the Company to actuarial risks such as: investment risk, interest rate risk, longevity risk and salary risk.
i) Investment risk - The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated using a discount rate determined by reference to the market yields on government bonds denominated in Indian Rupees.
If the actual return on plan asset is below this rate, it will create a plan deficit.
ii) Interest rate risk - A decrease in the bond interest rate will increase the plan liability. However, this will be partially offset by an increase in the return on the plan's debt investments.
iii) Longevity risk - The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated by reference to the best estimate of the mortality of plan participants both during and after their employment.
An increase in the life expectancy of the plan participants will increase the plan's liability.
