information Other than the Standalone Financial Statements and Auditor
s Report thereonThe Companys Management and Board of Directors is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Directors Report, Corporate Governance Report and Managements Discussion and Analysis report, but does not include the financial statements and auditors report thereon.
Our opinion on the standalone financial statements does not cover the Other Information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the standalone financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information identified above when it becomes available and, in doing so, consider whether such other information is materially inconsistent with the standalone financial statements, or our knowledge obtained during the course of our audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.
If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Standalone Financial Statements
The Companys Board of Directors is responsible for the matters stated in section 134(5) of the Act with respect to the preparation of these standalone financial statements that give a true and fair view of the financial position, financial performance including other comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows of the Company in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in India including Ind AS. This responsibility also includes maintenance of adequate accounting records in accordance with the provisions of the Act for safeguarding of the assets of the Company and for preventing and detecting frauds and other irregularities; selection and application of appropriate accounting policies; making judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls, that were operating effectively for ensuring the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, relevant to the preparation and presentation of the standalone financial statements that give a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the standalone financial statements, the Management and Board of Directors are responsible for assessing the Companys ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless Management and Board of Directors either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
Those Board of Directors are also responsible for overseeing the Companys financial reporting process.
Auditors Responsibilities for the Audit of the Standalone Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the standalone financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditors report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with SAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these standalone financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
l Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the standalone financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control;
l Obtain an understanding of internal financial controls relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances. Under section 143(3)(I) of the Act, we are also responsible for expressing our opinion on whether the Company has adequate internal financial controls with reference to standalone financial statements in place and the operating effectiveness of such controls;
l Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by Management;
l Conclude on the appropriateness of Management and Board of Directors use of the going concern basis of accounting in preparation of standalone financial statements and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Companys ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditors report to the related disclosures in the standalone financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditors report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern;
l Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the standalone financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the standalone financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation;
Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the standalone financial statements that, individually or in aggregate, makes it probable that the economic decisions of a reasonably knowledgeable user of the standalone financial statements may be influenced. We consider quantitative materiality and qualitative factors in (i) planning the scope of our audit work and in evaluating the results of our work; and (ii) to evaluate the effect of any identified misstatements in the standalone financial statements.
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the standalone financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditors report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

(d) it does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period. 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.
An entity shall classify all other liabilities as non-current.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as non-current only.
d) Functional and Presentation Currency:
The financial statements are presented in Indian Rupees, which is the functional currency of the Company and the currency of the primary economic environment in which the Company operates.
B. Use of estimates and judgements
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with 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 disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of these financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the periods presented. Actual results may differ from these estimates and judgements.
The Management believes that the estimates and associated assumptions made in the preparation of these financial statements are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant.
Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised prospectively.
The following are the significant areas of estimation, uncertainty, and critical judgements in applying accounting policies:
a) Estimates and assumptions:
(i) Useful Lives of Property, Plant & Equipment:
The Company reviews the useful life of property, plant and equipment at the end of each reporting period. This reassessment may result in change in depreciation expense in future periods.
(ii) Defined Benefit Plans:
The accounting of employee benefit plans in the nature of defined benefit requires the Company to use assumptions. These assumptions have been explained under employee benefits note.
(iii) Impairment of investments in subsidiaries and joint-venture:
The Company reviews its carrying value of investments carried at cost (net of impairment, if any) annually, or more frequently when there is indication for impairment. If the recoverable amount is less than it
s carrying amount, the impairment loss is accounted for in the statement of Profit and Loss.Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules as issued from time to time. During the year ended March 31, 2025, MCA has notified Ind AS 117 - Insurance Contracts and amendments to Ind As 116 Leases, relating to sale and lease back transactions, applicable from April 1, 2024. The Company has assessed that there is no significant impact on its financial statements.
On May 07, 2025, MCA notified the amendments to Ind AS 21 - Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates. These amendments aim to provide clearer guidance on assessing currency exchangeability and estimating exchange rates when currencies are not readily exchangeable. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after April 01, 2025. The Company is currently assessing the probable impact of these amendments on its financial statements.
D. Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost of acquisition or construction less accumulated depreciation and impairment, if any.
Freehold land is measured at cost and is not depreciated.
Cost includes purchase price, non-recoverable taxes and duties, labour cost and direct overheads for self-constructed assets and other direct costs incurred up to the date the asset is ready for its intended use. Any trade discounts and rebates are deducted in arriving at the purchase price.
Subsequent expenditure relating to property, plant and equipment is capitalised only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with these will flow to the Company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. Repairs and maintenance costs are recognized in the statement of Profit and Loss when incurred.
If significant parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, then they are accounted for as separate items (major components) of property, plant and equipment.
Depreciation on property, plant and equipment
s is calculated on pro-rata basis on straight-line method using useful lives of the assets as prescribed in Schedule II of the Companies Act, 2013.The useful life is as follows:
No. Nature | Useful Life |
1 Buildings | 30 60 years |
2 Plant and Equipment | 8 - 15 years |
3 Furniture and Fixtures | 10 years |
4 Office Equipment | 3 5 years |
5 Vehicles | 8 - 10 years |
The useful lives are reviewed at each year end. Changes in useful lives are treated as change in accounting estimates.
The residual values are not more than 5% of the original cost of the assets. The asset
s residual values and useful lives are reviewed and adjusted if appropriate.An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognized on disposal. Any gain or loss arising from derecognition of an item of property, plant and equipment is included in the statement of Profit and Loss.
Advances paid towards the acquisition of property, plant and equipment outstanding at each Balance Sheet date is classified as capital advances under other non-current assets.
The Company has chosen the carrying value of Property, Plant and Equipment existing as per previous GAAP as on date of transition to Ind AS i.e. April 01, 2015 as deemed cost .
E. Capital Work in Progress
Capital work-in-progress comprises of property, plant and equipment that are not ready for their intended use at the end of reporting period and are carried at cost comprising direct costs, related incidental expenses, other directly attributable costs and borrowing costs.
Depreciation is not recorded on capital work-in-progress until construction and installation are complete and the asset is ready for its intended use.
F. Intangible Assets
Intangible assets acquired are reported at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. The cost comprises purchase price, borrowing costs if capitalisation criteria are met and directly attributable cost of bringing the asset to its working condition for the intended use.
Amortisation on other intangible assets is calculated on pro rata basis on straight line method using the useful lives of the assets as prescribed in Schedule II of the Companies Act, 2013. The useful life is as follows:
No. | Nature |
Useful Life |
1 | Software |
5 years |
The residual value of intangible asset is Nil. The amortisation period for intangible assets with finite useful lives is reviewed at each year-end. Changes in expected useful lives are treated as changes in accounting estimates.
Intangible assets which are not ready for intended use as on date of Balance Sheet are disclosed as
Intangible assets under development.Intangible asset is derecognised on disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from use. Gains or losses arising from derecognition of an intangible asset is calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset. Such gains or losses is recognised in the statement of Profit and Loss.
G. Right of use assets
The Company assesses whether a contract contains a lease, at the inception of the 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 identified asset;
(ii) the Company has substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of the asset through the period of lease and;
(iii) the Company has the right to direct the use of the asset.
Company is the lessee
The Company recognises a right-of-use asset and a corresponding lease liability with respect to all lease agreements in which it is the lessee, except for short term leases (defined as leases with a lease term of 12 months or less) and leases of low value assets. For these leases, the Company recognises the lease payments as an operating expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease unless another systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern in which economic benefits from the leased asset are consumed.
The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at the commencement date, discounted by using the rate implicit in the lease. If this rate cannot be readily determined, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate.
Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability comprise of fixed lease payments (less any lease incentives), variable lease payments, penalties, etc.
The lease liability is presented as a separate line in the Balance sheet.
The lease liability is subsequently measured by increasing the carrying amount to reflect interest on the lease liability (using the effective interest method) and by reducing the carrying amount to reflect the lease payments made.
The Company remeasures lease liability and adjusts the right-of-use asset when the lease term changes, lease payments change due to an index or guaranteed residual value, or when a lease contract is modified.
The right-of-use assets comprise the initial measurement of the corresponding lease liability, lease payments made at or before the commencement day and any initial direct costs. They are subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses.
Right-of-use assets are depreciated over the shorter period of lease term and useful life of the underlying asset.
The right-of-use assets are presented as a separate line in Balance sheet. The Company applies Ind AS 36 Impairment of Assets to determine whether a right-of-use asset is impaired.
H. Investments in Subsidiaries & Joint Venture
The Company considers an investee company as a subsidiary company when it controls the investee company. Control is achieved when the Company is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the investee. Specifically, the Company controls an investee if, and only if, the Company has:
Power over the investee (i.e., existing rights that give it the current ability to direct the relevant activities of the investee)
Exposure, or rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee
The ability to use its power over the investee to affect its returns.
A joint venture is a type of joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the net assets of the joint venture. Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control of an arrangement, which exists only when decisions about the relevant activities require unanimous consent of the parties sharing control.
The considerations made in determining whether joint control exists are similar to those necessary to determine control over the subsidiaries.
Investments in Subsidiaries and Joint ventures are carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses, if any. Where an indication of impairment exists, the carrying amount of the investment is assessed and written down immediately to its recoverable amount. On disposal of investments in Subsidiaries and Joint ventures, the difference between net disposal proceeds and the carrying amounts are recognised in the statement of Profit and Loss.
I. Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurement
(A) Financial Instruments
A financial instrument is any contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one entity and a financial liability or equity instrument of another entity. All financial instruments are initially recognised when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Financial assets:
(i) Initial recognition and measurement:
All financial assets are recognised initially at fair value plus, in the case of financial assets not recorded at fair value through Statement of Profit & Loss, transaction costs that are attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset. However, trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component are measured at transaction price.
(ii) Subsequent measurement:
For purposes of subsequent measurement, financial assets are classified in two broad categories:
(a) Financial assets carried at amortised cost:
Financial assets that are held within a business model whose objective is to hold the asset in order to collect contractual cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest are subsequently measured at amortised cost less impairment, if any. Interest income calculated using effective interest rate (EIR) method and impairment loss, if any are recognised in the statement of Profit and Loss.
(b) Financial assets at fair value:
Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI):
Financial assets that are held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both holding the asset in order to collect contractual cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest and by selling the financial assets, are subsequently measured at fair value through other comprehensive income. Changes in fair value are recognized in the other comprehensive income (OCI). However, the Company recognises interest income and impairment losses and its reversals in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
On derecognition, cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in OCI is reclassified to the statement of profit and loss.
For equity instruments, the Company may make an irrevocable election to present in other comprehensive income (OCI) subsequent changes in the fair value. The Company makes such election on an instrument-by-instrument basis. The classification is made on initial recognition and is irrevocable.
If the Company decides to classify an equity instrument as at FVTOCI, then all fair value changes on the instrument, excluding dividends, are recognized in the OCI. There is no recycling of the amounts from OCI to P&L, even on sale of investment. However, the Company may transfer the cumulative gain or loss within equity.
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL):
A financial asset which is not classified in any of the above categories is subsequently fair valued through Statement of Profit and Loss.
For financial assets at FVTPL, net gains or losses, including any interest or dividend income, are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Equity instruments included within the FVTPL category are measured at fair value with all changes recognized in the Statement of Profit & Loss.
(iii) Derecognition
A financial asset (or, where applicable, a part of a financial asset or part) is derecognised (i.e. removed from the Companys balance sheet) when any of the following occurs:
a) The contractual rights to cash flows from the financial asset expires;
b) The Company transfers its contractual rights to receive cash flows of the financial asset and has substantially transferred all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset;
c) The Company retains the contractual rights to receive cash flows but assumes a contractual obligation to pay the cash flows without material delay to one or more recipients thereby substantially transferring all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset; or
d) The Company neither transfers nor retains substantially all risk and rewards of ownerships and does not retain control over the financial assets.
In cases where Company has neither transferred nor retained substantially all of the risks and rewards of the financial asset, but retains control of the financial asset, the Company continues to recognise such financial asset to the extent of its continuing involvement in the financial asset. In that case, the Company also recognises an associated liability. The financial asset and the associated liability are measured on a basis that reflects the rights and obligations that the Company has retained.
(iv) Impairment of financial assets
The Company applies expected credit losses (
ECL ) model for measurement and recognition of loss allowance on the following:a) Trade receivables;
b) Financial assets measured at amortised cost (other than Trade receivables).
In case of Trade receivables, the Company follows a simplified approach wherein an amount equal to lifetime ECL is measured and recognised as loss allowance.
In case of other assets (listed as b), the Company determines if there has been a significant increase in credit risk of the financial assets since initial recognition, if the credit risk of such assets has not increased significantly, an amount equal to 12-month ECL is measured and recognised as loss allowance. However, if credit risk has increased significantly, an amount equal to lifetime ECL is measured as recognised as loss allowance .
Subsequently, if the credit quality of the financial asset improves such that there is no longer a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition, the Company reverts to recognizing impairment loss allowance based on 12-month ECL.
ECL 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), discounted at the original effective interest rate.
Lifetime ECL are the expected credit losses resulting from all possible default events over the expected life of a financial asset. 12-month ECL are a portion of the lifetime ECL which result from default events that are possible within 12- month from the reporting date.
ECL are measured in a manner that they reflect unbiased and probability weighted amounts determined by a range of outcome, taking into account the time value of money and other reasonable information available as a result of past events, current conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions.
As a practical expedient, the Company uses a provision matrix to measure lifetime ECL on its portfolio of trade receivables. The provision matrix is prepared based on historically observed default rates over the expected life of trade receivables is adjusted for forward-looking estimates. At each reporting date, the historically observed default rates and changes in the forward-looking estimates are updated.
ECL allowance (or reversal) recognised during the period is recognised as expense (or income) in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Financial liabilities
(i) Initial recognition and measurement:
All financial liabilities are recognised at fair value on initial recognition. Transaction costs in relation to financial liabilities, other than those carried at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL), are added to the fair value on initial recognition.
(ii) Subsequent measurement:
For the purpose of subsequent measurement, financial liabilities are classified as follows:
Financial Liabilities at Amortised cost:
Financial liabilities are classified as financial liabilities at amortised cost by default. Interest expense calculated using effective interest method is recognised in the statement of Profit and Loss.
The effective interest method is the method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial liability and of allocating interest expenses over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments (including all fees and points paid or received that form an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and other premiums or discounts) through the expected life of the financial liability, or (where appropriate) a shorter period, to the net carrying amount on initial recognition .
Financial Liabilities at Fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL):
Financial liabilities are classified as FVTPL if it is held for trading or is designated as such on initial recognition. Changes in fair value and interest expense on these liabilities are recognised in the statement of Profit and Loss.
(iii) Derecognition:
A financial liability (or a part of a financial liability) is derecognised from the Companys Balance Sheet when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged or cancelled or expires. The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability de- recognised and the consideration paid and payable is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Derivative financial instruments:
The Company enters into derivative financial instruments viz. foreign exchange forward contracts to manage its exposure to foreign exchange rate risks. The Company does not hold derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes.
Derivatives are initially recognised at fair value at the date the derivative contracts are entered into and are subsequently remeasured 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.
Offsetting of financial instruments:
Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the 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, or to realise the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.
Financial Liabilities & Equity Instruments:
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 definition of financial liability and an equity instrument.
Equity Instrument: 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 a Company are recognised at the proceeds received.
(B) Fair value measurements
Fair value of financial assets and liabilities is normally determined by references to the transaction price or market price. If the fair value is not reliably determinable, the company determines the fair value using valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available, maximising the use of relevant observable inputs and minimising the use of unobservable inputs.
The Company determines the fair value of its financial instruments on the basis of the following hierarchy:
Level 1: The fair value of financial instruments that are quoted in active markets are determined on the basis of quoted price for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market are determined using valuation techniques based on observable market data.
Level 3: The fair value of financial instruments that are measured on the basis of entity specific valuations using inputs that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).
J. Income taxes
Income tax expense comprises current tax and deferred tax. Income tax expense is recognised in the statement of Profit and Loss except when they relate to items that are recognised outside of Profit and Loss (whether in other comprehensive income or directly in equity), in which case tax is also recognised outside Profit and Loss.
Current Tax:
Current income taxes are determined on the basis of respective taxable income. The current income tax is calculated on the basis of the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the end of the reporting period.
Management periodically evaluates positions taken in the tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulations are subject to interpretation and considers whether it is probable that a taxation authority will accept an uncertain tax treatment. The Company shall reflect the effect of uncertainty for each uncertain tax treatment by using either most likely method or expected value method, depending on which method predicts better resolution of the treatment.
Current tax assets and liabilities are offset only if, the Company: a) has a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts; and b) intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. Deferred Tax:
Deferred taxes are recognised basis the balance sheet approach on temporary differences, being the difference between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities in the Balance Sheet and its corresponding tax base, that originate in one period and are capable of reversal in one or more subsequent periods. Such deferred tax assets and liabilities are computed separately.
Deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which such assets can be utilized. 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 profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured using tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted as on the balance sheet date and are expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset only if:
a) the Company has a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities; and
b) the deferred tax assets and the deferred tax liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on the same taxable Company.
L. Inventories:
Inventories are valued as follows:
Raw Materials, Stores and Packing Materials:
Valued at lower of cost and net realisable value (NRV) after providing for obsolescence and other losses, where considered necessary. The comparison of cost and net realisable value is made on an item-by-Item basis. However, these items are considered to be realisable at cost, if the finished products, in which they will be used, are expected to be sold at or above cost. Cost is determined on Weighted Average basis which includes expenditure incurred for acquiring inventories like purchase price, import duties, taxes (net of tax credit) and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.
Work-in-progress (WIP), finished goods, stock in trade:
Valued at lower of cost or NRV. Cost of finished goods and WIP includes cost of raw materials, cost of conversion and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. Fixed production overheads are allocated on the basis of normal capacity of production facilities. Cost of inventories is computed on weighted average basis .
Waste / Scrap:
Waste/Scrap inventory is valued at NRV.
Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated cost necessary to make the sale.
M. Borrowing Costs:
Borrowing costs directly attributable to acquisition or construction of qualifying assets (i.e. assets which take substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use) are capitalised as part of the cost of that asset.
All other borrowing costs such as finance costs, interest expense on lease liabilities, etc. are recognized as an expense in the Statement of Profit and Loss in the period in which they are incurred.
N. Government Grants:
Government grants are not recognised until there is reasonable assurance that the Company will comply with the conditions attached to them and that the grants will be received.
Government grants related to income are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss in the period in which they become receivable.
Government grants relating to property, plant and equipment are presented as deferred income and are credited to the Statement of Profit and Loss on a systematic and rationale basis over the useful life of the asset.
O. Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets
Provisions are recognized for liabilities that can be measured only by using a substantial degree of estimation, if:
(iv) the company has a present obligation as a result of a past event,
(v) a probable outflow of resources is expected to settle the obligation; and
(vi) the amount of the obligation can be reliably estimated.
Provision is measured using the cash flows estimated to settle the present obligation and when the effect of time value of money is material, the carrying amount of the provision is the present value of those cash flows.
Contingent liability is disclosed in case of
(i) a present obligation arising from a past event when it is not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation or the amount of obligation cannot be measured with sufficient reliability; or
(ii) 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.
Contingent assets are neither recognized nor disclosed .
Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets are reviewed at each balance sheet date.
P. Revenue from operations
(a) Recognition of revenue:
Revenue is recognised on the basis of approved contracts regarding the transfer of goods or services to a customer for an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services.
(b) Measurement of revenue :
Revenue is measured based on the transaction price, which is the consideration, adjusted for discounts, incentives, volume rebates and schemes, if any, as per contracts with customers. Transaction price is the amount of consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring good or service to a customer. Taxes collected from customers on behalf of Government are not treated as Revenue.
(c) Performance obligations:
Sale of goods:
Revenue from contracts with customers involving sale of these products is recognized at a point in time when control of the product has been transferred at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services.
Due to the short nature of credit period given to customers, there is no financing component in the contract.
Any amounts receivable from the customer are recognised as revenue after the control over the goods sold are transferred to the customer which is generally on dispatch of goods. Export sales are recognized on the issuance of Bill of Lading.
(d) Variable consideration:
This includes incentives, volume rebates, discounts etc. It is estimated at contract inception considering the terms of various schemes with customers and constrained until it is highly probable that a significant revenue reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognised will not occur when the associated uncertainty with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved. It is reassessed at end of each reporting period.
(e) Schemes:
The Company operates several sales incentive scheme wherein the customers are eligible for several benefits on achievement of underlying conditions as prescribed in the scheme. Revenue from contract with customer is presented deducting cost of all these schemes.
(f) Significant financing components:
In respect of advances from its customers, using the practical expedient in Ind AS 115, the Company does not adjust the promised amount of consideration for the effects of a significant financing component if it expects, at contract inception, that the period between the transfer of the promised good or service to the customer and when the customer pays for that good or service will be within normal operating cycle.
(g) Export incentives:
Export incentives under various schemes notified by the Government have been recognised on the basis of applicable regulations, and when reasonable assurance to receive such revenue is established.
(h) Contract Balances:
Trade Receivables and Contract Assets
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 ).An entitys right to consideration in exchange for goods or services that the entity has transferred to a customer when that right is conditioned on something other than the passage of time.
Contract liabilities
A contract liability is the obligation to transfer goods 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.
Q. Other Income:
(a) Dividend income from investments is recognised when the shareholder
s right to receive payment has been established.(b) Interest income is recognised using effective interest rate (EIR) method.
R. Employee Benefit Expenses:
(a) Short-term employee benefits
All employee benefits payable wholly within twelve months of rendering the service are classified as short-term employee benefits. Benefits such as salaries, wages, incentives, etc. are charged to the Statement of Profit & Loss in the period in which the employee renders the related service. A liability is recognised for the amount expected to be paid when there is a present legal or constructive obligation to pay this amount as a result of past service provided by the employee and the obligation can be estimated reliably.
(b) Post-employment benefits:
The Company operates the following post employment schemes: (i) Defined contribution plans such as provident fund; and (ii) Defined benefit plans such as gratuity
(i) Defined contribution plan:
The eligible employees of the Company are entitled to receive benefits in respect of provident fund, for which both the employees and the Company make monthly contributions at a specified percentage of the covered employees salary. The contributions as specified under the law are made to the Government Provident Fund monthly.
The Company has no obligation, other than the contribution payable to the funds. The Company
s contributions to defined contribution plans are charged to the Statement of Profit & Loss as incurred.(ii) Defined benefit plan
The Company has defined benefit plan for post-employment benefits, for all employees in the form of Gratuity administered through trust funded with Life Insurance Corporation of India. The Companys liabilities under Payment of Gratuity Act are determined on the basis of independent actuarial valuation.
The liability in respect of gratuity 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.
Re-measurement, comprising actuarial gains and losses, the effect of the changes to the asset ceiling (if applicable) and the return on plan assets (excluding net interest), is reflected immediately in the Balance Sheet with a charge or credit recognised in Other Comprehensive Income (OCI) in the period in which they occur. Remeasurement recognised in OCI is reflected immediately in retained earnings and will not be reclassified to Statement of Profit and Loss. Past service cost is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss in the period of a plan amendment. Interest is calculated by applying the discount rate at the beginning of the period to the net defined benefit liability or asset and is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated using a discount rate which is determined by reference to market yields at the end of the reporting period on government bonds.
The defined benefit obligation recognised in the Balance Sheet represents the actual deficit or surplus in the Companys defined benefit plan. Any surplus resulting from this calculation is limited to the present value of any economic benefits available in the form of refunds from the plans or reductions in future contributions to the plans.
S. Foreign Currency Transactions:
Foreign currency transactions are initially recorded at the rates prevailing on the date of the transaction. At the balance sheet date, foreign currency monetary items are reported using the closing rate. Exchange gains and losses arising on settlement and restatement are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss. Non-monetary items which are carried at historical cost denominated in foreign currency are reported using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction.
T. Segment Reporting:
An operating segment is a component of the Company that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses, whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the companys Chief Operating Decision Maker (
CODM) to make decisions for which discrete financial information is available.In accordance with Ind AS 108, Operating Segment, the Managing Director is the Company
s chief operating decision maker (CODM). The CODM evaluates the Companys performance and allocates resources based on an analysis of various performance indicators by business segments and geographic segments.U. Earnings Per Share:
The Basic Earnings Per Share (
EPS) is computed by dividing the net profit / (loss) after tax for the year attributable to the equity shareholders by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year.For the purpose of calculating diluted earnings per share, net profit/loss after tax for the year attributable to the equity shareholders is divided by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year adjusted for the effects of all dilutive equity shares.
V. Statement of Cash flows:
Cash flows are reported using the indirect method, whereby the net profit before tax is adjusted for the effects of transactions of a non- cash nature, any deferrals or accruals of past or future operating cash receipts or payments and item of income or expenses associated with investing or financing cash flows. The cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities of the Company are segregated.
W. Cash and Cash Equivalents:
Cash and Cash Equivalents in the Balance Sheet comprise cash at bank and in hand and short-term deposits that are readily convertible into cash which are subject to insignificant risk of changes in value and are held for the purpose of meeting short- term cash commitments.
X. Dividend:
Final dividend on shares are recorded as a liability on the date of approval by the shareholders and interim dividends are recorded as a liability on the date of declaration by the Company
s Board of Directors.Note 2A: Property, Plant and Equipment and Intangible Assets

Note 34: Employee Benefits (Ind AS 19) A. Defined Benefit Plans: Gratuity:
The gratuity payable to employees is based on the employees service and last drawn salary at the time of leaving the services of the Company and is in accordance with the rules of the Company for payment of gratuity. The Companys defined benefit plan is funded with Life Insurance Corporation (LIC). The fund is managed by a trust which is governed by the Board of Trustees. The Board of Trustees are responsible for the administration of the plan assets and for the definition of the investment strategy. There are no other post retirement benefits provided by the Company.
The present value of the defined benefit obligation, the related current service cost and past service cost, were measured using the projected unit credit method.
Inherent Risk :
The plan is defined in nature which is sponsored by the Company and hence it underwrites all the risks pertaining to the plan. In particular, this exposes the Company to actuarial risk such as adverse salary growth, change in demographic experience, inadequate return on underlying plan assets. This may result in an increase in cost of providing these benefits to the employees in future. Since the benefits are lump sum in nature, the plan is not subject to any longevity risk.

The Insurance Company, as part of the policy rules, makes payment of all gratuity outgoes happening during the year (subject to sufficiency of funds under the policy). The policy, thus, mitigates the liquidity risk.

Holding Company) and its subsidiaries (the Holding Company and its Subsidiaries together referred to as the Group) and its joint venture, which comprise the consolidated balance sheet as at March 31, 2025, the consolidated statement of profit and loss (including other comprehensive income), the consolidated statement of changes in equity and consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and notes to the consolidated financial statements, including material accounting policies and other explanatory information (hereinafter referred to as the consolidated financial statements). In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, and based on the consideration of reports of other auditors on separate financial statements and on the other financial information of one subsidiary and joint venture as were audited/reviewed by the other auditors, the aforesaid consolidated financial statements give the information required by the Companies Act, 2013, as amended (the Act) in the manner so required and give a true and fair view in conformity with the Indian Accounting Standards prescribed under Section 133 of the Act read with the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 as amended (Ind AS) and other accounting principles generally accepted in India, of the consolidated state of affairs of the Group (financial position) and its joint venture as at March 31, 2025, of its consolidated profit (financial performance) including other comprehensive income, consolidated changes in equity and its consolidated cash flows for the year ended on that date.Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audit of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with the Standards on Auditing (
SAs"), specified under section 143(10) of the Act. Our responsibilities under those SAs are further described in the Auditors Responsibilities for the Audit of the consolidated financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the Group, and its joint venture in accordance with the Code of Ethics issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI) together with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the consolidated financial statements under the provisions of the Act and the Rules made thereunder, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements and the ICAIs Code of Ethics. We believe that the audit evidence obtained by us along with the consideration of reports of other auditors referred to in paragraph (i) and (ii) of the Other Matters section below, is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the consolidated financial statements.Key Audit Matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment and based on consideration of reports of other auditors on separate financial statements of the components audited/reviewed by them, were of most significance in our audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the consolidated financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. We have determined the matters described below to be the key audit matters to be communicated in our report.

Information Other than the Consolidated Financial Statements and Auditor
s Report thereonThe Holding Companys Board of Directors and Management are responsible for the preparation of the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Holding Companys Directors Report, Corporate Governance Report and Management Analysis and Discussion statement , but does not include the financial statements and auditors report thereon.
Our opinion on the consolidated financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the consolidated financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information identified above when it becomes available and, in doing so, consider whether such other information is materially inconsistent with the consolidated financial statements, or our knowledge obtained during the course of our audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.
If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Consolidated Financial Statements
The Holding Companys Board of Directors is responsible for the matters stated in section 134(5) of the Act with respect to the preparation of these consolidated financial statements that give a true and fair view of the consolidated financial position, financial performance (including other comprehensive income), changes in equity and cash flows of the Group including its joint venture in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, including Ind AS. The respective Management and Board of Directors of the Companies included in the Group and of its joint venture are responsible for maintenance of adequate accounting records in accordance with the provisions of the Act for safeguarding of the assets of the Group and its joint venture and for preventing and detecting frauds and other irregularities; selection and application of appropriate accounting policies; making judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls, that were operating effectively for ensuring the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, relevant to the preparation and presentation of the consolidated financial statements that give a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error,
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, the respective Management and Board of Directors of the Companies included in the Group and of its joint venture are responsible for assessing the ability of the Group and its joint venture to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless respective Management and Board of Directors either intends to liquidate their respective entities or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
The respective Board of Directors of the Companies included in the Group and of its joint venture are also responsible for overseeing the financial reporting process of the Group and of its joint venture.
Auditors Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditors report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with SAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these consolidated financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
l Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control;
l Obtain an understanding of internal financial controls relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances. Under section 143(3)(i) of the Act, we are also responsible for expressing our opinion on whether the Holding Company and the subsidiary which is incorporated in India have adequate internal financial controls with reference to the consolidated financial statements in place and the operating effectiveness of such controls;
l Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by Management;
l Conclude on the appropriateness of Management and Board of Directors use of the going concern basis of accounting in preparation of consolidated financial statements and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the ability of the Group and its joint venture to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditors report to the related disclosures in the consolidated financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditors report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group and its joint venture to cease to continue as a going concern;
l Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the consolidated financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation;
l Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Group and its joint venture of which we are independent auditors and whose financial information we have audited to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the audit of the financial statements of such entities included in the consolidated financial statements of which we are the independent auditors. For other entities included in the consolidated financial statements, which have been audited/reviewed by other auditors, such other auditors remain responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the audits/review carried out by them. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.
Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the consolidated financial statements that, individually or in aggregate, makes it probable that the economic decisions of a reasonably knowledgeable user of the consolidated financial statements may be influenced. We consider quantitative materiality and qualitative factors in (i) planning the scope of our audit work and in evaluating the results of our work; and (ii) to evaluate the effect of any identified misstatements in the consolidated financial statements.
We communicate with those charged with governance of the Holding Company and such other entities included in consolidated financial statements of which we are the independent auditors regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
We also provide those charged with governance of the Holding Company with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditors report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

ANNEXURE A TO INDEPENDENT AUDITORS REPORT
Report on the Internal Financial Controls under Clause (i) of sub-section 3 of Section 143 of the Companies Act, 2013 (The Act)
Opinion
,In conjunction with our audit of the consolidated financial statements of the Company as of and for the year ended 31st March, 2025, we have audited the internal financial controls with reference to consolidated financial statements of Prima Plastics Limited (hereinafter referred to as the Company or the Holding Company") and its subsidiary company which is incorporated in India as of that date,
In our opinion, the Holding Company and its subsidiary company which is incorporated in India, have, in all material respects, adequate internal financial controls with reference to these consolidated financial statements and such internal financial controls with reference to these consolidated financial statements were operating effectively as at March 31, 2025, based on the internal control with reference to financial statements criteria established by the Company considering the essential components of internal control stated in the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting (the Guidance Reporting) issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India.
Managements Responsibility for Internal Financial Controls
The respective Board of Directors of the Holding Company and its subsidiary company which is incorporated in India, are responsible for establishing and maintaining internal financial controls based on the internal financial controls with reference to consolidated financial statements criteria established by the respective Companies considering the essential components of internal control stated in the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI). These responsibilities include the design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls that were operating effectively for ensuring the orderly and efficient conduct of its business, including adherence to the respective companys policies, the safeguarding of its assets, the prevention and detection of frauds and errors, the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, and the timely preparation of reliable financial information, as required under the Act.
Auditors Responsibility for Internal Financial Controls
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Holding Company and its subsidiary company which is incorporated in Indias internal financial controls with reference to consolidated financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the Guidance Note and the Standards on Auditing as specified under section 143(10) of the Act, to the extent applicable to an audit of internal financial controls and, both issued by the ICAI. Those Standards and the Guidance Note require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether adequate internal financial controls with reference to these consolidated financial statements were established and maintained and if such controls operated effectively in all material respects.
Our audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the adequacy of the internal financial controls with reference to these consolidated financial statements and their operating effectiveness. Our audit of internal financial controls with reference to consolidated financial statements included obtaining an understanding of internal financial controls with reference to these consolidated financial statements, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. The procedures selected depend on the auditors judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained and the audit evidence obtained of the subsidiary company, which is incorporated in India is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the Companys internal financial controls with reference to the consolidated financial statements of the Holding Company and its subsidiary company which is incorporated in India.
Meaning of Internal Financial Controls with reference to Financial Statements
A Companys internal financial control with reference to these consolidated financial statements is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A Companys internal financial control with reference to these consolidated financial statements includes those policies and procedures that
i. pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company;
ii. provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorisations of management and directors of the Company; and
iii. provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorised acquisition, use, or disposition of the Companys assets that could have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.
Inherent Limitations of Internal Financial Controls with reference to these consolidated financial statements
Because of the inherent limitations of internal financial controls with reference to these consolidated financial statements, including the possibility of collusion or improper management override of controls, material misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. Also, projections of any evaluation of the internal financial controls with reference to these consolidated financial statements to future periods are subject to the risk that the internal financial control with reference to these consolidated financial statements may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
