NOTE NO. 1. MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
1.1 Basis of preparation of financial statements
(i) Statement of compliance
These financial statements are the separate financial statements of the Company (also called standalone financial
statements) prepared in accordance with Indian Accounting Standards (âInd ASâ) notified under Section 133 of the
Companies Act, 2013, read together with the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 as amended.
(ii) Historical cost convention
These financial statements have been prepared and presented under the historical cost convention, on the accrual
basis of accounting except for certain financial assets and financial liabilities that are measured at fair values at the
end of each reporting period, as stated in the accounting policies set out below. The accounting policies have been
applied consistently over all the periods presented in these financial statements.
(iii) Rounding of amounts
All amounts disclosed in the financial statements and notes have been rounded off to the nearest Lakhs as per the
requirement of Schedule III, unless otherwise stated
1.2 Key accounting estimates and judgements
The preparation of the Companyâs financial statements requires the management to make judgements, estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities, and the accompanying disclosures,
and the disclosure of contingent liabilities. Uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that
require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets or liabilities affected in future periods.
Critical accounting estimates and assumptions
The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date, that have
a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial
year, are described below:
a. Property, Plant and Equipment
Property, Plant and Equipment represent a significant proportion of the asset base of the Company. The charge in
respect of periodic depreciation is derived after determining an estimate of an assetâs expected useful life and the
expected residual value at the end of its life. The useful lives and residual values of Companyâs assets are determined
by the management at the time the asset is acquired and reviewed periodically, including at each financial year end.
The lives are based on historical experience with similar assets as well as anticipation of future events, which may
impact their life, such as changes in technical or commercial obsolescence arising from changes or improvements in
production or from a change in market demand of the product or service output of the asset.
b. Defined benefit obligation
The costs of providing post-employment benefits are charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss in accordance with
Ind AS 19 âEmployee benefitsâ over the period during which benefit is derived from the employeesâ services. The costs
are assessed on the basis of assumptions selected by the management. These assumptions include salary escalation
rate, discount rates, expected rate of return on assets and mortality rates. The same is disclosed in Note 33, âEmployee
benefitsâ.
c. Fair value measurement of Financial Instruments
When the fair values of financials assets and financial liabilities recorded in the Balance Sheet cannot be measured
based on quoted prices in active markets, their fair value is measured using prudent valuation techniques, which
involve various judgements and assumptions.
d. Income taxes
The Companyâs tax jurisdiction is India. Significant judgements are involved in estimating budgeted profits for the
purpose of paying advance tax, determining the provision for income taxes, including amount expected to be paid/
recovered for uncertain tax positions/deferred tax liability/assets.
1.3 Current & non-current classification:
The assets and liabilities are classified into current and non-current.
Assets
An asset is classified as current when it satisfies any of the following criteria:
a) it is expected to be realised in, or is intended for sale or consumption in, the companyâs normal operating cycle;
b) it is held primarily for the purpose of being traded;
c) it is expected to be realised within 12 months after the reporting date; or
d) it is cash or cash equivalent unless it is restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least 12
months after the reporting date.
Current assets include the portion of non-current financial assets. All other assets are classified as non-current.
Liabilities
A liability is classified as current when it satisfies any of the following criteria:
a) it is expected to be settled in the companyâs normal operating cycle;
b) it is held primarily for the purpose of being traded;
c) it is due to be settled within 12 months after reporting date; or
d) the company does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the
reporting date.
Current liabilities include current portion of non-current financial liabilities. All other liabilities are classified as non-current.
1.4 Property, Plant and Equipment and Intangible Assets
(i) Property, Plant and Equipment
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost net of recoverable taxes and includes amounts added on revaluation,
less accumulated depreciation and impairment loss, if any.
The cost of an item of property, plant and equipment comprises of its purchase price including import duties and other
nonrefundable purchase taxes or levies, and any directly attributable cost of bringing the asset to its working condition
for its intended use and the initial estimate of decommissioning, restoration and similar liabilities, if any. Any trade
discounts and rebates are deducted in arriving at the purchase price. Cost includes cost of replacing a part of a plant
and equipment if the recognition criteria are met. Expenditure incurred on start-up and commissioning of the project
and/or substantial expansion, including the expenditure up to the date of commencement of commercial production
are capitalised. Subsequent expenditures related to an item of fixed asset are capitalised to its book value only if they
increase the future benefits from the existing asset beyond its previously assessed standard of performance.
(ii) Capital work in progress and Capital advances:
Cost of assets not ready for intended use, as on the Balance Sheet date, is shown as capital work in progress.
Advances paid towards acquisition of fixed assets outstanding at each Balance Sheet date are disclosed as Other
Non-Current Assets.
(iii) Intangible Assets
⢠Acquired Intangible Assets
Intangible Assets are stated at cost of acquisition net of recoverable taxes less accumulated amortization /
impairment loss, if any.
Subsequent expenditure is capitalized only when it increases the future economic benefits from the specific
asset to which it relates.
⢠Internally generated intangible assets
Internally generated intangibles including research cost are not capitalized and the related expenditure is recognized
in the Statement of Profit and Loss in the period in which the expenditure is incurred.
(iv) Derecognition
The carrying amount of an item of property, plant and equipment is derecognized on disposal or when no future
economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. The gain or loss arising from the derecognition of an item of
property, plant and equipment is measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying
amount of the item and is recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss when the item is derecognized
The carrying amount of an intangible asset is derecognized on disposal or when no future economic benefits are
expected from its use or disposal. The gain or loss arising from the derecognition of an intangible asset is measured as
the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the intangible asset and is recognized in
the Statement of Profit and Loss when the asset is derecognized.
(v) Depreciation and Amortization
⢠Depreciation
Depreciation on each part of an item of property, plant and equipment is provided using the Straight-Line Method
as per the useful lives and in the manner prescribed under Part C of Schedule II of the Companies Act, 2013.
Freehold land is not depreciated. Leasehold land and Leasehold improvements are amortized over the period of
the lease.
The useful lives, residual values of each part of an item of property, plant and equipment and the depreciation
methods are reviewed at the end of each financial year. If any of these expectations differ from previous estimates,
such change is accounted for as a change in an accounting estimate.
On increase in value due to revaluation on the basis of remaining useful life as estimated by the valuer, the
corresponding amount is directly transferred to General Reserve from Revaluation Reserve.
⢠Amortization
Intangible Assets with finite lives are amortized on a Straight-Line basis over the estimated useful economic life.
The amortization expense on intangible assets with finite lives is recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
The estimated useful life of intangible assets like Product development, Software systems etc. has been estimated
as five years.
The amortization period and the amortization method for an intangible asset with finite useful life is reviewed at
the end of each financial year. If any of these expectations differ from previous estimates, such change is accounted
for as a change in an accounting estimate.
1.5 Impairment
The Company assesses at each Balance Sheet date whether there is any indication that an asset/cash generating unit may
be impaired. If any such indication exists, the Company estimates the recoverable amount of the asset/cash generating
unit. If such recoverable amount of the asset or the recoverable amount of the cash generating unit is less than the carrying
amount, the carrying amount is reduced to its recoverable amount. The reduction is treated as an impairment loss and is
recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
An assessment is also done at each balance sheet date whether there is any indication that an impairment loss recognized
for an asset/cash generating unit in prior accounting periods may no longer exist or may have decreased. If any such
indications exists, the assets/ cash generating unitâs recoverable amount is estimated. The carrying amount of the fixed
asset/ cash generating unit is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount but only to the extent that the
increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss
been recognized for the asset in previous periods. A reversal of impairment loss is recognized in the Statement of Profit and
Loss.
1.6 Revenue Recognition
Revenue from sale of products & services is recognized when the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the products
or services are transferred to the buyer, recovery of the consideration is reasonably assured and the amount of revenue can
be measured reliably. Revenues is net of goods & service tax (GST) and discounts, if any.
Income from subsidy, disbursed/disbursable by the Governments is included in other operating income. The subsidy amount
is recognized only to the extent that the realization is reasonably assured.
Dividend income is recognized when the right to receive the income is established.
Income from interest on deposits and loans is recognized on time proportionate basis.
Export incentives/ benefits are accounted for on accrual basis in the year in which exports are made and are included in
other operating income.
1.7 Government grants and subsidies
The Company is entitled to subsidies from government in respect of manufacturing unit located in specified regions.
Such subsidies are measured at amounts receivable from the government which are non-refundable and are recognized as
income when there is a reasonable assurance that the Company will comply with all necessary conditions attached to them.
Government subsidy relating to purchase of property, plant and equipment are included in non-current liabilities as deferred
income and are credited to Statement of Profit and Loss on a straight line basis over the expected life of the related assets
and presented within other operating revenue.
1.8 Inventory
Inventories are stated at lower of cost or net realisable value except scrap which is valued at net estimated realizable value.
The cost for the purpose of valuation is computed on the basis of weighted average price in case of Conductors and in case
of Insulators Division on the basis of First-in-First out (FIFO).
Cost of inventory comprises all costs of purchase, duties, taxes (other than those subsequently recoverable from tax authorities)
and all other costs incurred in bringing the inventory to their present location and condition.
The cost of work-in-progress and finished goods comprises of raw materials, packing materials, direct labour, other direct
costs, and appropriate portion of variable and fixed production overheads and such other costs incurred as to bring the
inventory to its present location and condition. Fixed production overheads are allocated on the basis of normal capacity of
production facilities.

completion/ reprocessing and the estimated cost necessary to make the sale.
1.9 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.
A) Financial Assets
The Company recognizes a financial asset in its Balance Sheet when it becomes party to the contractual provisions of
the instrument. All regular way purchases or sales of financial assets are recognised and derecognised on a trade date
basis.
All recognized financial assets are subsequently measured in their entirety at either amortized cost or fair value,
depending on the classification of the financial assets.
a) Effective interest method
The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortized cost of a debt instrument and of allocating
interest income over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated
future cash receipts (including all fees paid or received that form an integral part of the effective interest rate,
transaction costs and other premium or discounts) through the expected life of the debt instrument, or where
appropriate, a shorter period to the net carrying amount on initial recognition.
Income is recognized on effective interest basis for debt instruments other than those financial assets classified
as at FVTPL. Interest income is recognized in the statement of profit and loss and is included in theâ Other
incomeâ line item.
b) Investment in Equity Instruments at fair value through profit & loss
These investments are initially measured at fair value plus transaction costs subsequently, they are measured at
fair value with gains and losses arising from changes in fair value recognized in profit & loss
c) Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
A financial asset which is not classified in any of the above categories are subsequently fair valued through profit
or loss. Such financial assets are subsequently measured at fair value at each reporting date. Fair value changes
are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
B) Financial Liabilities
The Company recognizes a financial liability in its Balance Sheet when it becomes party to the contractual provisions
of the instrument. Financial liabilities are subsequently carried at amortized cost using the effective interest method.
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 instruments.
1.10 Derivative financial instrument
The Company uses derivative financial instruments, such as forward & Options currency contracts to hedge its foreign
currency risks. Derivative financial instruments are measured at their fair value at the end of each reporting period.
1.11 Measurement of Fair Values
The Company measures financial instruments at fair value in accordance with the accounting policies mentioned above.
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between
market participants at the measurement date.
All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the financial statements are categorized within the
fair value hierarchy that categorizes into three levels, described as follows, the inputs to valuation techniques used to
measure value. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or
liabilities (Level 1 inputs) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 inputs).
Level 1 â quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level 2 â inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly
or indirectly
Level 3 â inputs that are unobservable for the asset or liability
1.12 Investment in Subsidiary Companies
The Company has elected to recognize its investments in subsidiary companies at cost in accordance with the option
available in Ind AS 27, âSeparate Financial Statementsâ. The details of such investments are given in Note 6.
1.13 Foreign Currency Translation
Initial Recognition:
On initial recognition, transactions in foreign currencies entered into by the Company are recorded in the functional currency
(i.e. Indian Rupees), by applying to the foreign currency amount, the spot exchange rate between the functional currency
and the foreign currency at the date of the transaction. Exchange differences arising on foreign exchange transactions
settled during the year are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Measurement of foreign currency items at reporting date:
Foreign currency monetary items of the Company are translated at the closing exchange rates. Non-monetary items that
are measured at historical cost in a foreign currency, are translated using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction.
Non-monetary items that are measured at fair value in a foreign currency, are translated using the exchange rates at the
date when the fair value is measured.
Exchange differences arising out of these translations are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
1.14 Income Taxes
Tax expense is the aggregate amount included in the determination of profit or loss for the period in respect of current tax
and deferred tax.
Current tax:
Current tax is the amount of income taxes payable in respect of taxable profit for a period. Taxable profit differs from âprofit
before taxâ as reported in the Statement of Profit and Loss because of items of income or expense that are taxable or
deductible in other years and items that are never taxable or deductible under the Income Tax Act, 1961.
Current tax is measured using tax rates that have been enacted by the end of reporting period for the amounts expected to
be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities.
Deferred tax:
Deferred tax is recognized 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 under Income Tax Act, 1961.
Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognized for all taxable temporary differences.
Deferred tax assets are generally recognized for all deductible temporary differences to the extent it is probable that taxable
profits will be available against which those deductible temporary difference can be utilized.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it
is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow the benefits of part or all of such deferred tax
assets to be utilized.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by 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.
Presentation of current and deferred tax:
Current and deferred tax are recognized as income or an expense in the Statement of Profit and Loss, except when they
relate to items that are recognized in Other Comprehensive Income, in which case, the current and deferred tax income/
expense are recognized in Other Comprehensive Income.
The Company offsets current tax assets and current tax liabilities, where it has a legally enforceable right to set off the
recognized amounts and where it intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realize the asset and settle the liability
simultaneously. In case of deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities, the same are offset if the Company has a legally
enforceable right to set off corresponding current tax assets against current tax liabilities and the deferred tax assets and
deferred tax liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority on the Company.

Foreign currency monetary items of the Company are translated at the closing exchange rates. Non-monetary items that are measured at historical cost in a foreign currency, are translated using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction.
Non-monetary items that are measured at fair value in a foreign currency, are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value is measured.
Exchange differences arising out of these translations are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Tax expense is the aggregate amount included in the determination of profit or loss for the period in respect of current tax and deferred tax.
Current tax is the amount of income taxes payable in respect of taxable profit for a period. Taxable profit differs from âprofit before taxâ as reported in the Statement of Profit and Loss because of items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and items that are never taxable or deductible under the Income Tax Act, 1961.
Current tax is measured using tax rates that have been enacted by the end of reporting period for the amounts expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities.
Deferred tax is recognized 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 under Income Tax Act, 1961.
Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognized for all taxable temporary differences.
Deferred tax assets are generally recognized for all deductible temporary differences to the extent it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary difference can be utilized.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow the benefits of part or all of such deferred tax assets to be utilized.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by 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.
Presentation of current and deferred tax:
Current and deferred tax are recognized as income or an expense in the Statement of Profit and Loss, except when they relate to items that are recognized in Other Comprehensive Income, in which case, the current and deferred tax income/ expense are recognized in Other Comprehensive Income.
The Company offsets current tax assets and current tax liabilities, where it has a legally enforceable right to set off the recognized amounts and where it intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. In case of deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities, the same are offset if the Company has a legally enforceable right to set off corresponding current tax assets against current tax liabilities and the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority on the Company.
1.15 Provisions and Contingencies
The Company recognizes provisions when a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event exists and it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle such obligation and the amount of such obligation can be reliably estimated. If the effect of 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 recognized as a finance cost.
A disclosure for a contingent liability is made when there is a possible obligation or a present obligation that may, but probably will not require an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits or the amount of such obligation cannot be measured reliably. When there is a possible obligation or a present obligation in respect of which likelihood of outflow of resources embodying economic benefits is remote, no provision or disclosure is made.
1.16 Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and Cash equivalents for the purpose of Cash Flow Statement comprise cash and cheques in hand, bank balances, demand deposits with banks where the original maturity is three months or less and other short term highly liquid investments.
Short Term Employee Benefits:
All employee benefits payable wholly within twelve months of rendering the service are classified as short term employee benefits and they are recognized in the period in which the employee renders the related service. The Company recognizes the undiscounted amount of short term employee benefits expected to be paid in exchange for services rendered as a liability (accrued expense) after deducting any amount already paid.
Post-Employment Benefits:
I. Defined Contribution plans:
Recognition and measurement of defined contribution plans:
The Company recognizes contribution payable to a defined contribution plan as an expense in the Statement of Profit and Loss when the employees render services to the Company during the reporting period.
II. Defined Benefit plans:
Recognition and measurement of Defined Benefit plans:
The cost of providing defined benefits is determined using the actuarial valuation techniques with actuarial valuations being carried out at each reporting date. Re-measurements of the net defined benefit liability / (asset) comprising actuarial gains and losses, are recognized in Other Comprehensive Income. The Company presents the above liability/(asset) as current and non-current in the Balance Sheet as per actuarial valuation by the independent actuary.
Other Long Term Employee Benefits:
Entitlements to annual leave and sick leave are recognized when they accrue to employees. Sick leave can only be availed while annual leave can either be availed or encashed subject to a restriction on the maximum number of accumulation of leave. The Company determines the liability for such accumulated leaves using the actuarial valuation techniques.
Expenditure on research is recognized as an expense when it is incurred. Expenditure on development which does not meet the criteria for recognition as an intangible asset is recognized as an expense when it is incurred.
Borrowing cost includes interest, ancillary costs incurred in connection with the arrangement of borrowings and exchange differences arising from foreign currency borrowings to the extent they are regarded as an adjustment to the interest cost.
Borrowing costs, if any, directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of an asset that necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use or sale are capitalized, if any. All other borrowing costs are expensed in the period in which they occur.
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) of the Company. The CODM is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments of the Company.
1.21 Events occurring after Reporting date
Where events occurring after the Balance Sheet date provide evidence of conditions that existed at the end of the reporting period, the impact of such events is adjusted within the financial statements. Otherwise, events after the Balance Sheet date of material size or nature are only disclosed.
a) Basic earnings per share
Basic Earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net profit for the period attributable to the equity shareholders by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period.
b) Diluted earnings per share
For the purpose of calculating diluted earnings per share, the net profit for the period attributable to the equity shareholders after taking income tax effect of interest and other finance cost associated with dilutive potential equity shares and the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period is adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potential equity shares.
Property that is held for long-term rental yields or for capital appreciation or both, and that is not occupied by the Company, is classified as investment property.
Investment property is measured at its cost, including related transaction costs and where applicable borrowing costs less depreciation and impairment if any.
Depreciation on building is provided over its useful life using the Straight-Line Method
When items of income and expense within statement of profit and loss from ordinary activities are of such size, nature or incidence that their disclosure is relevant to explain the performance of the enterprise for the period, the nature and amount of such material items are disclosed separately as exceptional items.
The Company assesses at contract inception whether a contract is, or contains, a lease. That is, if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration.
Company as a lessee
The Company applies a single recognition and measurement approach for all leases, except for short-term leases and leases of low-value assets. The Company recognises lease liabilities to make lease payments and right-of-use assets representing the right to use the underlying assets.
The Company determines the lease term as the non-cancellable term of the lease, together with any periods covered by an option to extend the lease if it is reasonably certain to be exercised, or any periods covered by an option to terminate the lease, if it is reasonably certain not to be exercised.
Right-of-use assets
The Company recognises right-of-use assets at the commencement date of the lease (i.e., the date the underlying asset is available for use). Right-of-use assets are measured at cost, less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, and adjusted for any measurement of lease liabilities. The cost of right-of-use assets includes the amount of lease liabilities recognised, initial direct costs incurred and lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received. Right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Lease Liability
At the commencement date of the lease, the Company recognises lease liabilities measured at the present value of lease payments to be made over the lease term. The lease payments include fixed payments less any lease incentives receivable. Variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or a rate are recognised as expenses (unless they are incurred to produce inventories) in the period in which the event or condition that triggers the payment occurs.
In calculating the present value of lease payments, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate at the lease commencement date because the interest rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable. After the commencement date, the amount of lease liabilities is increased to reflect the accretion of interest and reduced for the lease payments made. In addition, the carrying amount of lease liabilities is remeasured if there is a modification, a change in the lease term, a change in the lease payments or a change in the assessment of an option to purchase the underlying asset.
Short-term leases and leases of low-value assets
The Company applies the short-term lease recognition exemption to its short-term leases (i.e., those leases that have a lease term of 12 months or less from the commencement date and do not contain a purchase option). It also applies the lease of low-value assets recognition exemption to leases of office equipment that are considered to be low value. Lease payments on short-term leases and leases of low-value assets are recognised as expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
1.26 Non current assets held for sale and discontinued operations
Non-current assets are classified as held for sale if their carrying amount will be recovered principally through a sale transaction rather than through continuing use and a sale is considered highly probable. Non-current assets classified as held for sale are measured at lower of their carrying amount and fair value less cost to sell. Non-current assets classified as held for sale are not depreciated or amortised from the date when they are classified as held for sale. Noncurrent assets classified as held for sale and the assets and liabilities of a disposal group classified as held for sale are presented separately from the other assets and liabilities in the Standalone Balance Sheet.

The registered office of the Company is located at âKanchenjungaâ (7th Floor),18, Barakhambha Road, New Delhi, India. The Company is listed on the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE).
The Company is engaged mainly in the business of manufacturing & selling of electrical conductors, insulator products and also engaged in real-estate activity of renting out property.
These financial statements were authorized for issue in accordance with a resolution of the directors on dated 28th May, 2023.
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES1.1 Basis of preparation of financial statements(i) Statement of compliance
These financial statements are the separate financial statements of the Company (also called standalone financial statements) prepared in accordance with Indian Accounting Standards (âInd ASâ) notified under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013, read together with the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 as amended.
(ii) Historical cost convention
These financial statements have been prepared and presented under the historical cost convention, on the accrual basis of accounting except for certain financial assets and financial liabilities that are measured at fair values at the end of each reporting period, as stated in the accounting policies set out below. The accounting policies have been applied consistently over all the periods presented in these financial statements.
All amounts disclosed in the financial statements and notes have been rounded off to the nearest Lakhs as per the requirement of Schedule III, unless otherwise stated
1.2 Key accounting estimates and judgements
The preparation of the Companyâs financial statements requires the management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities, and the accompanying disclosures, and the disclosure of contingent liabilities. Uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets or liabilities affected in future periods.
Critical accounting estimates and assumptions
The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year, are described below:
(a) Property, Plant and Equipment
Property, Plant and Equipment represent a significant proportion of the asset base of the Company. The charge in respect of periodic depreciation is derived after determining an estimate of an assetâs expected useful life and the expected residual value at the end of its life. The useful lives and residual values of Companyâs assets are determined by the management at the time the asset is acquired and reviewed periodically, including at each financial year end. The lives are based on historical experience with similar assets as well as anticipation of future events, which may impact their life, such as changes in technical or commercial obsolescence arising from changes or improvements in production or from a change in market demand of the product or service output of the asset.
(b) Defined benefit obligation
The costs of providing post-employment benefits are charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss in accordance with Ind AS 19 âEmployee benefitsâ over the period during which benefit is derived from the employeesâ services. The costs are assessed on the basis of assumptions selected by the management. These assumptions include salary escalation rate, discount rates, expected rate of return on assets and mortality rates. The same is disclosed in Note 33, âEmployee benefitsâ.
(c) Fair value measurement of Financial Instruments
When the fair values of financials assets and financial liabilities recorded in the Balance Sheet cannot be measured based on quoted prices in active markets, their fair value is measured using prudent valuation techniques, which involve various judgements and assumptions.
The Companyâs tax jurisdiction is India. Significant judgements are involved in estimating budgeted profits for the purpose of paying advance tax, determining the provision for income taxes, including amount expected to be paid/recovered for uncertain tax positions/deferred tax liability/assets.
1.3 Current & non-current classification:
The assets and liabilities are classified into current and non-current.
An asset is classified as current when it satisfies any of the following criteria:
(a) It is expected to be realised in, or is intended for sale or consumption in, the companyâs normal operating cycle;
(b) It is held primarily for the purpose of being traded;
(c) It is expected to be realised within 12 months after the reporting date; or
(d) It is cash or cash equivalent unless it is restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least 12 months after the reporting date.
Current assets include the portion of non-current financial assets. All other assets are classified as non-current. Liabilities
A liability is classified as current when it satisfies any of the following criteria:
(a) It is expected to be settled in the companyâs normal operating cycle;
(b) It is held primarily for the purpose of being traded;
(c) It is due to be settled within 12 months after reporting date; or
(d) The company does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting date.
Current liabilities include current portion of non-current financial liabilities. All other liabilities are classified as non-current.
1.4 Property, Plant and Equipment and Intangible Assets(i) Property, Plant and Equipment
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost net of recoverable taxes and includes amounts added on revaluation, less accumulated depreciation and impairment loss, if any.
The cost of an item of property, plant and equipment comprises of its purchase price including import duties and other nonrefundable purchase taxes or levies, and any directly attributable cost of bringing the asset to its working condition for its intended use and the initial estimate of decommissioning, restoration and similar liabilities, if any. Any trade discounts and rebates are deducted in arriving at the purchase price. Cost includes cost of replacing a part of a plant and equipment if the recognition criteria are met. Expenditure incurred on start-up and commissioning of the project and/or substantial expansion, including the expenditure up to the date of commencement of commercial production are capitalised. Subsequent expenditures related to an item of fixed asset are capitalised to its book value only if they increase the future benefits from the existing asset beyond its previously assessed standard of performance.
(ii) Capital work in progress and Capital advances:
Cost of assets not ready for intended use, as on the Balance Sheet date, is shown as capital work in progress. Advances paid towards acquisition of fixed assets outstanding at each Balance Sheet date are disclosed as Other Non-Current Assets.
(iii) Intangible Assets Acquired Intangible Assets
Intangible Assets are stated at cost of acquisition net of recoverable taxes less accumulated amortisation / impairment loss, if any.
Subsequent expenditure is capitalized only when it increases the future economic benefits from the specific asset to which it relates.
Internally generated intangible assets
Internally generated intangibles including research cost are not capitalized and the related expenditure is recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss in the period in which the expenditure is incurred.
The carrying amount of an item of property, plant and equipment is derecognized on disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. The gain or loss arising from the derecognition of an item of property, plant and equipment is measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the item and is recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss when the item is derecognized
The carrying amount of an intangible asset is derecognized on disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. The gain or loss arising from the derecognition of an intangible asset is measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the intangible asset and is recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss when the asset is derecognized.
(v) Depreciation and Amortization Depreciation
Depreciation on each part of an item of property, plant and equipment is provided using the StraightLine Method as per the useful lives and in the manner prescribed under Part C of Schedule II of the Companies Act, 2013.
Freehold land is not depreciated. Leasehold land and Leasehold improvements are amortized over the period of the lease.
The useful lives, residual values of each part of an item of property, plant and equipment and the depreciation methods are reviewed at the end of each financial year. If any of these expectations differ from previous estimates, such change is accounted for as a change in an accounting estimate.
On increase in value due to revaluation on the basis of remaining useful life as estimated by the valuer, the corresponding amount is directly transferred to General Reserve from Revaluation Reserve.
Amortisation
Intangible Assets with finite lives are amortized on a Straight-Line basis over the estimated useful economic life. The amortization expense on intangible assets with finite lives is recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
The estimated useful life of intangible assets like Product development, Software systems etc. has been estimated as five years.
The amortization period and the amortization method for an intangible asset with finite useful life is reviewed at the end of each financial year. If any of these expectations differ from previous estimates, such change is accounted for as a change in an accounting estimate.
The Company assesses at each Balance Sheet date whether there is any indication that an asset/cash generating unit may be impaired. If any such indication exists, the Company estimates the recoverable amount of the asset/cash generating unit. If such recoverable amount of the asset or the recoverable amount of the cash generating unit is less than the carrying amount, the carrying amount is reduced to its recoverable amount. The reduction is treated as an impairment loss and is recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
An assessment is also done at each balance sheet date whether there is any indication that an impairment loss recognized for an asset/cash generating unit in prior accounting periods may no longer exist or may have decreased. If any such indications exists, the assets/ cash generating unitâs recoverable amount is estimated. The carrying amount of the fixed asset/ cash generating unit is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount but only to the extent that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset in previous periods. A reversal of impairment loss is recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Revenue from sale of products & services is recognized when the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the products or services are transferred to the buyer, recovery of the consideration is reasonably assured and the amount of revenue can be measured reliably. Revenues is net of goods & service tax (GST) and discounts, if any.
Income from subsidy, disbursed/disbursable by the Governments is included in other operating income. The subsidy amount is recognized only to the extent that the realization is reasonably assured.
Dividend income is recognized when the right to receive the income is established.
Income from interest on deposits and loans is recognized on time proportionate basis.
Export incentives/ benefits are accounted for on accrual basis in the year in which exports are made and are included in other operating income.
1.7 Government grants and subsidies
The Company is entitled to subsidies from government in respect of manufacturing unit located in specified regions.
Such subsidies are measured at amounts receivable from the government which are non-refundable and are recognized as income when there is a reasonable assurance that the Company will comply with all necessary conditions attached to them.
Government subsidy relating to purchase of property, plant and equipment are included in non-current liabilities as deferred income and are credited to Statement of Profit and Loss on a straight line basis over the expected life of the related assets and presented within other operating revenue.
Inventories are stated at lower of cost or net realisable value except scrap which is valued at net estimated realizable value.
The cost for the purpose of valuation is computed on the basis of weighted average price in case of Conductors and in case of Insulators Division on the basis of First-in-First out (FIFO).
Cost of inventory comprises all costs of purchase, duties, taxes (other than those subsequently recoverable from tax authorities) and all other costs incurred in bringing the inventory to their present location and condition.
The cost of work-in-progress and finished goods comprises of raw materials, packing materials, direct labour, other direct costs, and appropriate portion of variable and fixed production overheads and such other costs incurred as to bring the inventory to its present location and condition. Fixed production overheads are allocated on the basis of normal capacity of production facilities.
Net realisable value is the estimate of the selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs of completion/ reprocessing and the estimated cost necessary to make the sale.
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.
The Company recognizes a financial asset in its Balance Sheet when it becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. All regular way purchases or sales of financial assets are recognised and derecognised on a trade date basis.
All recognized financial assets are subsequently measured in their entirety at either amortized cost or fair value, depending on the classification of the financial assets.
The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortized cost of a debt instrument and of allocating interest income over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts (including all fees paid or received that form an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and other premium or discounts) through the expected life of the debt instrument, or where appropriate, a shorter period to the net carrying amount on initial recognition.
Income is recognized on effective interest basis for debt instruments other than those financial assets classified as at FVTPL. Interest income is recognized in the statement of profit and loss and is included in theâ Other incomeâ line item.
(b) Investment in Equity Instruments at fair value through profit & loss
These investments are initially measured at fair value plus transaction costs subsequently, they are measured at fair value with gains and losses arising from changes in fair value recognized in profit & loss
(c) Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
A financial asset which is not classified in any of the above categories are subsequently fair valued through profit or loss. Such financial assets are subsequently measured at fair value at each reporting date. Fair value changes are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
The Company recognizes a financial liability in its Balance Sheet when it becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Financial liabilities are subsequently carried at amortized cost using the effective interest method. 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 instruments.
1.10 Derivative financial instrument
The Company uses derivative financial instruments, such as forward & Options currency contracts to hedge its foreign currency risks. Derivative financial instruments are measured at their fair value at the end of each reporting period.
1.11 Measurement of Fair Values
The Company measures financial instruments at fair value in accordance with the accounting policies mentioned above.
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the financial statements are categorized within the fair value hierarchy that categorizes into three levels, described as follows, the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure value. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 inputs) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 inputs).
Level 1 â quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level 2 â inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly
Level 3 â inputs that are unobservable for the asset or liability
1.12 Investment in Subsidiary Companies
The Company has elected to recognize its investments in subsidiary companies at cost in accordance with the option available in Ind AS 27, âSeparate Financial Statementsâ. The details of such investments are given in Note 6.
1.13 Foreign Currency Translation Initial Recognition:
On initial recognition, transactions in foreign currencies entered into by the Company are recorded in the functional currency (i.e. Indian Rupees), by applying to the foreign currency amount, the spot exchange rate between the functional currency and the foreign currency at the date of the transaction. Exchange differences arising on foreign exchange transactions settled during the year are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Measurement of foreign currency items at reporting date:
Foreign currency monetary items of the Company are translated at the closing exchange rates. Non-monetary items that are measured at historical cost in a foreign currency, are translated using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction.

Exchange differences arising out of these translations are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Tax expense is the aggregate amount included in the determination of profit or loss for the period in respect of current tax and deferred tax.
Current tax is the amount of income taxes payable in respect of taxable profit for a period. Taxable profit differs from âprofit before taxâ as reported in the Statement of Profit and Loss because of items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and items that are never taxable or deductible under the Income Tax Act, 1961.
Current tax is measured using tax rates that have been enacted by the end of reporting period for the amounts expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities.
Deferred tax is recognized 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 under Income Tax Act, 1961.
Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognized for all taxable temporary differences.
Deferred tax assets are generally recognized for all deductible temporary differences to the extent it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary difference can be utilized.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow the benefits of part or all of such deferred tax assets to be utilized.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by 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.
Presentation of current and deferred tax:
Current and deferred tax are recognized as income or an expense in the Statement of Profit and Loss, except when they relate to items that are recognized in Other Comprehensive Income, in which case, the current and deferred tax income/ expense are recognized in Other Comprehensive Income.
The Company offsets current tax assets and current tax liabilities, where it has a legally enforceable right to set off the recognized amounts and where it intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. In case of deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities, the same are offset if the Company has a legally enforceable right to set off corresponding current tax assets against current tax liabilities and the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority on the Company.
1.15 Provisions and Contingencies
The Company recognizes provisions when a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event exists and it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle such obligation and the amount of such obligation can be reliably estimated. If the effect of 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 recognized as a finance cost.
A disclosure for a contingent liability is made when there is a possible obligation or a present obligation that may, but probably will not require an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits or the amount of such obligation cannot be measured reliably. When there is a possible obligation or a present obligation in respect of which likelihood of outflow of resources embodying economic benefits is remote, no provision or disclosure is made.

The cost of right-of-use assets includes the amount of lease liabilities recognised, initial direct costs incurred and lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received. Right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
At the commencement date of the lease, the Company recognises lease liabilities measured at the present value of lease payments to be made over the lease term. The lease payments include fixed payments less any lease incentives receivable. Variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or a rate are recognised as expenses (unless they are incurred to produce inventories) in the period in which the event or condition that triggers the payment occurs.
In calculating the present value of lease payments, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate at the lease commencement date because the interest rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable. After the commencement date, the amount of lease liabilities is increased to reflect the accretion of interest and reduced for the lease payments made. In addition, the carrying amount of lease liabilities is remeasured if there is a modification, a change in the lease term, a change in the lease payments or a change in the assessment of an option to purchase the underlying asset.
Short-term leases and leases of low-value assets
The Company applies the short-term lease recognition exemption to its short-term leases (i.e., those leases that have a lease term of 12 months or less from the commencement date and do not contain a purchase option). It also applies the lease of low-value assets recognition exemption to leases of office equipment that are considered to be low value. Lease payments on short-term leases and leases of low-value assets are recognised as expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
1.1 Basis of preparation of financial statements
(i) Statement of compliance
These financial statements are the separate financial statements of the Company (also called standalone financial statements) prepared in accordance with Indian Accounting Standards (âInd ASâ) notified under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013, read together with the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015.
For all periods up to and including the year ended 31st March, 2017, the Company had prepared its financial statements in accordance with Accounting Standards notified under the Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013, read together with Rule 7 of the Companies (Accounts) Rules, 2014 (âPrevious GAAPâ). Detailed explanation on how the transition from previous GAAP to Ind AS has affected the Companyâs Balance Sheet, financial performance and cash flows is given under Note 44.
(ii) Historical cost convention
These financial statements have been prepared and presented under the historical cost convention, on the accrual basis of accounting except for certain financial assets and financial liabilities that are measured at fair values at the end of each reporting period, as stated in the accounting policies set out below. The accounting policies have been applied consistently over all the periods presented in these financial statements.
1.2 Key accounting estimates and judgements
The preparation of the Companyâs financial statements requires the management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities, and the accompanying disclosures, and the disclosure of contingent liabilities. Uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets or liabilities affected in future periods.
Critical accounting estimates and assumptions
The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year, are described below:
a. Property, Plant and Equipment
Property, Plant and Equipment represent a significant proportion of the asset base of the Company. The charge in respect of periodic depreciation is derived after determining an estimate of an assetâs expected useful life and the expected residual value at the end of its life. The useful lives and residual values of Companyâs assets are determined by the management at the time the asset is acquired and reviewed periodically, including at each financial year end. The lives are based on historical experience with similar assets as well as anticipation of future events, which may impact their life, such as changes in technical or commercial obsolescence arising from changes or improvements in production or from a change in market demand of the product or service output of the asset.
b . Defined benefit obligation
The costs of providing post-employment benefits are charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss in accordance with Ind AS 19 âEmployee benefitsâ over the period during which benefit is derived from the employeesâ services. The costs are assessed on the basis of assumptions selected by the management. These assumptions include salary escalation rate, discount rates, expected rate of return on assets and mortality rates. The same is disclosed in Note 33, âEmployee benefitsâ.
c. Fair value measurement of Financial Instruments
When the fair values of financials assets and financial liabilities recorded in the Balance Sheet cannot be measured based on quoted prices in active markets, their fair value is measured using prudent valuation techniques, which involve various judgements and assumptions.
d. Income taxes
The Companyâs tax jurisdiction is India. Significant judgements are involved in estimating budgeted profits for the purpose of paying advance tax, determining the provision for income taxes, including amount expected to be paid/ recovered for uncertain tax positions/deferred tax liability/assets.
1.3 Current & non-current classification:
The assets and liabilities are classified into current and non-current.
Assets
An asset is classified as current when it satisfies any of the following criteria:
a) it is expected to be realised in, or is intended for sale or consumption in, the companyâs normal operating cycle;
b) it is held primarily for the purpose of being traded;
c) it is expected to be realised within 12 months after the reporting date; or
d) it is cash or cash equivalent unless it is restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least 12 months after the reporting date.
Current assets include the portion of non current financial assets. All other assets are classified as non-current. Liabilities
A liability is classified as current when it satisfies any of the following criteria:
a) it is expected to be settled in the companyâs normal operating cycle;
b) it is held primarily for the purpose of being traded;
c) it is due to be settled within 12 months after reporting date; or
d) the company does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting date.
Current liabilities include current portion of non-current financial liabilities. All other liabilities are classified as non-current.
1.4 Property, Plant and Equipment and Intangible Assets
(i) Property, Plant and Equipment
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost net of recoverable taxes and includes amounts added on revaluation, less accumulated depreciation and impairment loss, if any.
The cost of an item of property, plant and equipment comprises of its purchase price including import duties and other nonrefundable purchase taxes or levies, and any directly attributable cost of bringing the asset to its working condition for its intended use and the initial estimate of decommissioning, restoration and similar liabilities, if any. Any trade discounts and rebates are deducted in arriving at the purchase price. Cost includes cost of replacing a part of a plant and equipment if the recognition criteria are met. Expenditure incurred on start-up and commissioning of the project and/or substantial expansion, including the expenditure up to the date of commencement of commercial production are capitalised. Subsequent expenditures related to an item of fixed asset are capitalised to its book value only if they increase the future benefits from the existing asset beyond its previously assessed standard of performance.
(ii) Capital work in progress and Capital advances:
Cost of assets not ready for intended use, as on the Balance Sheet date, is shown as capital work in progress. Advances paid towards acquisition of fixed assets outstanding at each Balance Sheet date are disclosed as Other Non-Current Assets.
(iii) Intangible Assets
- Acquired Intangible Assets
Intangible Assets are stated at cost of acquisition net of recoverable taxes less accumulated amortisation / impairment loss, if any.
Subsequent expenditure is capitalized only when it increases the future economic benefits from the specific asset to which it relates.
- Internally generated intangible assets
Internally generated intangibles including research cost are not capitalized and the related expenditure is recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss in the period in which the expenditure is incurred.
(iv) Derecognition
The carrying amount of an item of property, plant and equipment is derecognized on disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. The gain or loss arising from the derecognition of an item of property, plant and equipment is measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the item and is recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss when the item is derecognized
The carrying amount of an intangible asset is derecognized on disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. The gain or loss arising from the derecognition of an intangible asset is measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the intangible asset and is recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss when the asset is derecognized.
(v) Depreciation and Amortisation
- Depreciation
Depreciation on each part of an item of property, plant and equipment is provided using the Straight Line Method as per the useful lives and in the manner prescribed under Part C of Schedule II of the Companies Act, 2013.
Freehold land is not depreciated. Leasehold land and Leasehold improvements are amortized over the period of the lease.
The useful lives, residual values of each part of an item of property, plant and equipment and the depreciation methods are reviewed at the end of each financial year. If any of these expectations differ from previous estimates, such change is accounted for as a change in an accounting estimate.
On increase in value due to revaluation on the basis of remaining useful life as estimated by the valuer, the corresponding amount is directly transferred to General Reserve from Revaluation Reserve.
- Amortisation
Intangible Assets with finite lives are amortized on a Straight Line basis over the estimated useful economic life. The amortization expense on intangible assets with finite lives is recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
The estimated useful life of intangible assets like Product development, Software systems etc. has been estimated as five years.
The amortization period and the amortization method for an intangible asset with finite useful life is reviewed at the end of each financial year. If any of these expectations differ from previous estimates, such change is accounted for as a change in an accounting estimate.
(vi) Transition to Ind AS
On transition to Ind AS, the company has elected to measure its Property, Plant and Equipment at the previous GAAP carrying amount (except certain items of PPE at fair valuation) as its deemed cost on the date of transition of Ind AS i.e, 1 April 2016.
1.5 Impairment
The Company assesses at each Balance Sheet date whether there is any indication that an asset/cash generating unit may be impaired. If any such indication exists, the Company estimates the recoverable amount of the asset/cash generating unit. If such recoverable amount of the asset or the recoverable amount of the cash generating unit is less than the carrying amount, the carrying amount is reduced to its recoverable amount. The reduction is treated as an impairment loss and is recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
An assessment is also done at each balance sheet date whether there is any indication that an impairment loss recognized for an asset/cash generating unit in prior accounting periods may no longer exist or may have decreased. If any such indications exists, the assets/ cash generating unitâs recoverable amount is estimated. The carrying amount of the fixed asset/ cash generating unit is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount but only to the extent that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset in previous periods. A reversal of impairment loss is recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
1.6 Revenue Recognition
Revenue from sale of products is recognized when the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the products are transferred to the buyer, recovery of the consideration is reasonably assured and the amount of revenue can be measured reliably. Revenues include excise duty and are shown net of sales tax, value added tax, goods & service tax (GST) and discounts, if any.
Income from subsidy, disbursed/disbursable by the Governments is included in other operating income. The subsidy amount is recognized only to the extent that the realization is reasonably assured.
Dividend income is recognized when the right to receive the income is established. Income from interest on deposits and loans is recognized on time proportionate basis. Export incentives/ benefits are accounted for on accrual basis in the year in which exports are made and are included in other operating income.
1.7 Government grants and subsidies
The Company is entitled to subsidies from government in respect of manufacturing unit located in specified regions.
Such subsidies are measured at amounts receivable from the government which are non-refundable and are recognized as income when there is a reasonable assurance that the Company will comply with all necessary conditions attached to them.
Government subsidy relating to purchase of property, plant and equipment are included in non-current liabilities as deferred income and are credited to Statement of Profit and Loss on a straight line basis over the expected life of the related assets and presented within other operating revenue.
1.8 Inventory
Inventories are stated at lower of cost or net realisable value except scrap which is valued at net estimated realizable value.
The cost for the purpose of valuation is computed on the basis of weighted average price in case of Conductors and in case of Insulators Division on the basis of First-in-First out (FIFO).
Cost of inventory comprises all costs of purchase, duties, taxes (other than those subsequently recoverable from tax authorities) and all other costs incurred in bringing the inventory to their present location and condition.
The cost of work-in-progress and finished goods comprises of raw materials, packing materials, direct labour, other direct costs, and appropriate portion of variable and fixed production overheads and such other costs incurred as to bring the inventory to its present location and condition. Fixed production overheads are allocated on the basis of normal capacity of production facilities.
Net realisable value is the estimate of the selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs of completion/ reprocessing and the estimated cost necessary to make the sale.
1.9 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.
A) Financial Assets
The Company recognizes a financial asset in its Balance Sheet when it becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. All regular way purchases or sales of financial assets are recognised and derecognised on a trade date basis.
All recognized financial assets are subsequently measured in their entirety at either amortized cost or fair value, depending on the classification of the financial assets.
a) Effective interest method
The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortized cost of a debt instrument and of allocating interest income over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts (including all fees paid or received that form an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and other premium or discounts) through the expected life of the debt instrument, or where appropriate, a shorter period to the net carrying amount on initial recognition.
Income is recognized on effective interest basis for debt instruments other than those financial assets classified as at FVTPL. Interest income is recognized in the statement of profit and loss and is included in theâ Other incomeâ line item.
b) Investment in Equity Instruments at fair value through profit & loss
These investments are initially measured at fair value plus transaction costs Subsequently, they are measured at fair value with gains and losses arising from changes in fair value recognized in profit & loss
c) Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
A financial asset which is not classified in any of the above categories are subsequently fair valued through profit or loss. Such financial assets are subsequently measured at fair value at each reporting date. Fair value changes are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
B) Financial Liabilities
The Company recognizes a financial liability in its Balance Sheet when it becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Financial liabilities are subsequently carried at amortized cost using the effective interest method. 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 instruments.
1.10 Derivative financial instrument and Hedge accounting
The Company enters into derivative financial instruments to manage its exposure to foreign exchange rate risks. The company holds derivative financial instruments such as foreign exchange forward contracts to mitigate the risk of changes in exchange rates on foreign currency exposures. The counter party for these contracts is generally a bank. 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 recognized in profit or loss immediately unless the derivative is designated and effective as a hedging instrument, in which event the timing of the recognition in profit or loss depends on the nature of the hedging relationship and the nature of the hedged item.
1.11 Measurement of Fair Values
The Company measures financial instruments at fair value in accordance with the accounting policies mentioned above.
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the financial statements are categorized within the fair value hierarchy that categorizes into three levels, described as follows, the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure value. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 inputs) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 inputs).
Level 1 â quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level 2 â inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly
Level 3 â inputs that are unobservable for the asset or liability
1.12 Investment in Subsidiary Companies
The Company has elected to recognize its investments in subsidiary companies at cost in accordance with the option available in Ind AS 27, âSeparate Financial Statementsâ. The details of such investments are given in Note 6.
1.13 Foreign Currency Translation Initial Recognition:
On initial recognition, transactions in foreign currencies entered into by the Company are recorded in the functional currency (i.e. Indian Rupees), by applying to the foreign currency amount, the spot exchange rate between the functional currency and the foreign currency at the date of the transaction. Exchange differences arising on foreign exchange transactions settled during the year are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Measurement of foreign currency items at reporting date:
Foreign currency monetary items of the Company are translated at the closing exchange rates. Non-monetary items that are measured at historical cost in a foreign currency, are translated using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction.
Non-monetary items that are measured at fair value in a foreign currency, are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value is measured.
Exchange differences arising out of these translations are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
1.14 Income Taxes
Tax expense is the aggregate amount included in the determination of profit or loss for the period in respect of current tax and deferred tax.
Current tax:
Current tax is the amount of income taxes payable in respect of taxable profit for a period. Taxable profit differs from âprofit before taxâ as reported in the Statement of Profit and Loss because of items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and items that are never taxable or deductible under the Income Tax Act, 1961.
Current tax is measured using tax rates that have been enacted by the end of reporting period for the amounts expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities.
Deferred tax:
Deferred tax is recognized 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 under Income Tax Act, 1961.
Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognized for all taxable temporary differences.
Deferred tax assets are generally recognized for all deductible temporary differences to the extent it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary difference can be utilized.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow the benefits of part or all of such deferred tax assets to be utilized.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by 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.
Presentation of current and deferred tax:
Current and deferred tax are recognized as income or an expense in the Statement of Profit and Loss, except when they relate to items that are recognized in Other Comprehensive Income, in which case, the current and deferred tax income/ expense are recognized in Other Comprehensive Income.
The Company offsets current tax assets and current tax liabilities, where it has a legally enforceable right to set off the recognized amounts and where it intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. In case of deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities, the same are offset if the Company has a legally enforceable right to set off corresponding current tax assets against current tax liabilities and the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority on the Company.
1.15 Provisions and Contingencies
The Company recognizes provisions when a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event exists and it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle such obligation and the amount of such obligation can be reliably estimated. If the effect of 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 recognized as a finance cost.
A disclosure for a contingent liability is made when there is a possible obligation or a present obligation that may, but probably will not require an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits or the amount of such obligation cannot be measured reliably. When there is a possible obligation or a present obligation in respect of which likelihood of outflow of resources embodying economic benefits is remote, no provision or disclosure is made.
1.16 Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and Cash equivalents for the purpose of Cash Flow Statement comprise cash and cheques in hand, bank balances, demand deposits with banks where the original maturity is three months or less and other short term highly liquid investments.
1.17 Employee Benefits
Short Term Employee Benefits:
All employee benefits payable wholly within twelve months of rendering the service are classified as short term employee benefits and they are recognized in the period in which the employee renders the related service. The Company recognizes the undiscounted amount of short term employee benefits expected to be paid in exchange for services rendered as a liability (accrued expense) after deducting any amount already paid.
Post-Employment Benefits:
I. Defined Contribution plans:
Recognition and measurement of defined contribution plans:
The Company recognizes contribution payable to a defined contribution plan as an expense in the Statement of Profit and Loss when the employees render services to the Company during the reporting period.
II. Defined Benefit plans:
Recognition and measurement of Defined Benefit plans:
The cost of providing defined benefits is determined using the actuarial valuation techniques with actuarial valuations being carried out at each reporting date. Re-measurements of the net defined benefit liability / (asset) comprising actuarial gains and losses, are recognized in Other Comprehensive Income. The Company presents the above liability/(asset) as current and non-current in the Balance Sheet as per actuarial valuation by the independent actuary.
Other Long Term Employee Benefits:
Entitlements to annual leave and sick leave are recognized when they accrue to employees. Sick leave can only be availed while annual leave can either be availed or encashed subject to a restriction on the maximum number of accumulation of leave. The Company determines the liability for such accumulated leaves using the actuarial valuation techniques.
1.18 Research & Development
Expenditure on research is recognized as an expense when it is incurred. Expenditure on development which does not meet the criteria for recognition as an intangible asset is recognized as an expense when it is incurred.
1.19 Borrowing Cost
Borrowing cost includes interest, ancillary costs incurred in connection with the arrangement of borrowings and exchange differences arising from foreign currency borrowings to the extent they are regarded as an adjustment to the interest cost.
Borrowing costs, if any, directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of an asset that necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use or sale are capitalized, if any. All other borrowing costs are expensed in the period in which they occur.
1.20 Segment Reporting
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) of the Company. The CODM is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments of the Company.
1.21 Events after Reporting date
Where events occurring after the Balance Sheet date provide evidence of conditions that existed at the end of the reporting period, the impact of such events is adjusted within the financial statements. Otherwise, events after the Balance Sheet date of material size or nature are only disclosed.
1.22 Earnings Per Share
a) Basic earnings per share
Basic Earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net profit for the period attributable to the equity shareholders by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period.
b) Diluted earnings per share
For the purpose of calculating diluted earnings per share, the net profit for the period attributable to the equity shareholders after taking income tax effect of interest and other finance cost associated with dilutive potential equity shares and the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period is adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potential equity shares.
1.23 Recent accounting pronouncement issued but not yet effective upto the date of issuance of financial statements
In March 2017, the Ministry of Corporate Affairs issued the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015, notifying Ind AS 115, âRevenue from Contracts with Customersâ. This Ind AS is in accordance with the IFRS 15. However, considering the challenges and difficulties, MCA deferred the applicability of this Ind AS and made it implemented from April 01, 2018.
This Ind AS obliges the Company to book its revenue from customers on the 5 step model as below: -
Step -1: Identify the contract with the customer
Step -2: Identify the performance obligations in the contract
Step -3: Determine the transaction price
Step- 4: Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations
Step -5: Recognise revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation.
Basis the operations of the Company, the company is evaluating the requirement of the amendment
Mar 31, 2016
1 Basis of Preparation of Financial Statements
The financial statements are prepared under the historical cost convention, except for certain fixed assets which are revalued, and in accordance with the generally accepted accounting principles in India and the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013.
2 Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles requires the Management to make estimates and assumptions that may affect the reported balances of assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of income and expenses during the period. Management believes that the estimates used in the preparation of financial statements are prudent and reasonable. Actual results could differ from estimates and differences, if any, are recognized in the period in which the results are known / materialized.
3 Current & non-current classification:
The assets and liabilities are classified into current and non-current.
Assets

(ii) Short-term employee benefits are recognized as an expense at the undiscounted amount in the profit and loss account of the year in which the related service is rendered.
(iii) Post employment and other long term employee benefits are recognized as an expense in the Profit and Loss account for the year in which the employee has rendered services. The expense is recognized at the present value of the amounts payable determined using actuarial valuation techniques. Actuarial gains and losses in respect of post employment and other long term benefits are charged to the Profit and Loss account.
6 Excise Duty
The excise duty liability in respect of closing inventory of finished goods is provided for and included as part of inventory. The amount of CENVAT credits in respect of materials consumed for sales is deducted from cost of materials consumed. Amount of custom duty paid on raw materials (including in transit) is included in the value thereof.
7 Research & Development
Revenue expenditure on Research and Development is charged to the Profit and Loss account in the year in which it is incurred. Capital expenditure is shown as depreciable fixed asset.
8 Tangible Fixed Assets
Fixed Assets are stated at cost net of recoverable taxes and includes amounts added on revaluation, less accumulated depreciation and impairment loss, if any. All costs, including finance costs till commencement of commercial production, net charges on foreign exchange contracts and adjustments arising from exchange rate variations attributable to the fixed assets are capitalized.
9 Intangible Fixed Assets
Intangible Assets are stated at cost of acquisition net of recoverable taxes less accumulated amortization / depletion. All costs, including financing costs till commencement of commercial production, net charges on foreign exchange contracts and adjustments arising from exchange rate variations attributable to the intangible assets are capitalized.
10 Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation is provided on straight line method as follows:-
(i) On the original cost of fixed assets as per the useful lives and in the manner prescribed under Part C of Schedule II of The Companies Act, 2013.
(ii) On increase in value due to revaluation on the basis of remaining useful life as estimated by the valuer, the corresponding amount is directly transferred to General Reserve from Revaluation Reserve.
11 Impairment of Assets
An asset is treated as impaired when the carrying cost of asset exceeds its recoverable value. An impairment loss is charged to the Profit and Loss Account in the year in which an asset is identified as impaired. The impairment loss recognized in prior accounting period is reversed if there has been a change in the estimate of recoverable amount.
12 Foreign Currency Transactions
(a) Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are recorded at the exchange rate prevailing on the date of the transaction or that approximates the actual rate at the date of the transaction.
(b) Monetary items denominated in foreign currencies at the year end are restated at year end rates.

(c) Non monetary foreign currency items are carried at cost.
(d) Any income or expense on account of exchange difference either on settlement or on translation is recognized in the Profit and Loss account except in case of long term liabilities, where they relate to acquisition of fixed assets, in which case they are adjusted to the carrying cost of such assets.
13 Investments
Investments are classified as long term or current based on the Management intention at the time of purchase. Long term investments are stated at acquisition cost. Provision for diminution in the value of long-term investments is made only if such a decline is other than temporary. Current investments are carried at lower of cost and quoted/fair value, computed category wise.
14 Inventories
Inventories are stated at lower of cost or net realizable value. The cost for the purpose of valuation is computed on the basis of weighted average price in case of Conductors Division and in case of Insulators Division on the basis of First-in-First out (FIFO). The cost of work-in-progress (other than those lying at third party manufacturing sites which is valued at material cost) and finished goods comprises of raw materials, direct labour, other direct costs and related production overheads, but excludes interest expense. Net realizable value is the estimate of the selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the costs of completion and estimated selling expenses.
15 Borrowing Costs
Borrowing costs that are attributable to the acquisition or construction of qualifying assets are capitalized as part of the cost of such assets. A qualifying asset is one that necessarily takes substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use. All other borrowing costs are charged to Profit and Loss account.
16 Government Grants
Grants received from the government agencies for the specific fixed assets are shown as deduction in the year of receipt from the Gross value of the asset concerned and thus recognized over the remaining useful life of the depreciable asset by way of reduced depreciation charge. Revenue grants are recognized as Other Income or deducted in reporting the related expenses where such benefits have been earned by the enterprise and it is certain that ultimate reliability is certain.
17 Taxes on Income
Provision for current tax is made after taking into consideration benefits admissible under the provisions of the Income-tax Act, 1961. Deferred tax resulting from âtiming differenceâ between taxable and accounting income is accounted for using the tax rates and laws that are enacted or substantively enacted as on the balance sheet date.
Deferred tax asset is recognized and carried forward only to the extent that there is a virtual certainty that the asset will be realized in future. Deferred tax assets /Deferred tax liabilities are not recognized if timing differences are expected to reverse during the tax holiday period.
18 Earnings Per Share
Basic Earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net profit for the period attributable to the equity shareholders by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period. For the purpose of calculating diluted earnings per share, the net profit for the period attributable to the equity shareholders and the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period is adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potential equity shares.
19 Provisions and Contingent Liabilities
Provisions involving substantial degree of estimation in measurement are recognized when there is a present obligation as a result of past events and it is probable that there will be an outflow of resources. Contingent Liabilities are not recognized but are disclosed in the notes. Contingent Assets are neither recognized nor disclosed in the financial statements.
