The company has prepared these financial statements to comply in all material respects with the accounting standards notified under section 133 of the Companies Act 2013, read together with paragraph 7 of the Companies (Accounts) Rules 2014. The financial statements have been prepared on an accrual basis and under the historical cost convention. The Company is a Non- Small and Medium size Company ("Non-SMC") as defined in the General Instructions of the Rules in respect of Accounting Standards notified. Accordingly, the Company has complied with the accounting standards as applicable to a Non-Small and Medium size Company. All amounts are stated in Indian Rupees, except as otherwise specified. 2Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with general accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the results of operations during the reporting period end. Although these estimates are based upon management's best knowledge of current events and actions, actual results could differ from these estimates. 3Tangible and Intangible Fixed Assets and depreciation Fixed assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. The Company capitalises all costs relating to the acquisition and installation of fixed assets. Till the year ended 31 March 2014, Schedule XIV to the Companies Act, 1956, prescribed requirements concerning depreciation of fixed assets. From the current year, Schedule XIV has been replaced by Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013. The applicability of Schedule II has resulted in the changes related to depreciation of fixed assets. Unless stated otherwise, the impact mentioned for the current year is likely to hold good for future years also. Intangible assets are amortized over a period of 3 years. Till year ended 31 March 2014, to comply with the requirements of Schedule XIV to the Companies Act, 1956, the company was charging 100% depreciation on assets costing less than 5,000/- in the year of purchase. However, Schedule II to the Companies Act 2013, applicable from the current year, does not recognize such practice. Hence, to comply with the requirement of Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013, the company has changed its accounting policy for depreciations of assets costing less than 5,000/-. As per the revised policy, the company is depreciating such assets over their useful life as assessed by the management. The management has decided to apply the revised accounting policy prospectively from accounting periods commencing on or after 1 April 2014. The change in accounting for depreciation of assets costing less than 5,000/- did not have any material impact on financial statements of the company for the current year. The carrying amounts of assets are reviewed at each balance sheet date if there is any indication of impairment based on internal/external factors. An impairment loss is recognized wherever the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the greater of the asset's net selling price and value in use. In assessingvalue in use, the Company measures its 'value in use' on the basis of undiscounted cash flows of next five years projections estimated based on current prices. After impairment, depreciation is provided on the revised carrying amount of the asset over its remaining useful life. Assets under installation or under construction and the related advances as at the Balance Sheet date are shown as Capital Work in Progress. 4Inventories Inventories are valued at cost or net realisable value whichever is less 5Investments Investments that are readily realizable and intended to be held for not more than a year are classified as current investments. All other investments are classified as long-term investments. Current investments are valued at the lower of cost and fair value. Changes in the carrying amount of current investments are recognized in the Profit and Loss Account. Long-term investments are valued at cost, less any provision for diminution, other than temporary, in the value of such investments; decline, if any, is charged to the Profit and Loss Account. Cost comprises cost of acquisition and related expenses such as brokerage and stamp duties. 6Revenue Recognition A.Sale of Products: 1.Export Sales Revenue from the sale of products is recognised at the point of bill of lading of goods at the customs port. 2.Domestic Sales Revenue from the sale of product is recognized at the point of dispatch of goods from the factory/warehouse of the company.
