Independent Auditor’s Report

To the Members of Amforge Industries Limited Report on the audit financial statements:

Opinion

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Amforge Industries Limited (“the Company”), which comprise the Balance Sheet as at 31st March, 2022, Statement of Profit and Loss (including other comprehensive income), Statement of Cash Flows, and Statement of Changes in Equity for the year then ended, and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.

In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, the aforesaid financial statements give the information required by the Act in the manner so required and give a true and fair view in conformity with the Indian Accounting Standards prescribed under section 133 of the act read with the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 as amended (“Ind AS”) and the accounting principles generally accepted in India, of the state of affairs of the Company as at March 31, 2022, its profit, total comprehensive income, and its cash flows and the changes in equity for the year ended on that date.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing (SAs) specified under section 143(10) of the Companies Act, 2013. Our responsibilities under those Standards are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the code of Ethics issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India together with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements under the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013 and the Rules thereunder, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements and the ICAI’s Code of Ethics. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion on the financial statements.

Key Audit Matter

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. The auditor determines that there is no Key Audit Matter during the year.

Information other than the Ind AS Financial Statements and Auditor’s Report thereon

The other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report but does not include Ind AS financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. The Annual Report is expected to be made available to us after the date of this auditor’s report. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and we will not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information identified above when it becomes available and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. When we read the Annual Report, if we conclude that there is a material misstatement therein, we are required to communicate the matter to those charged with governance.

Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Financial Statements

The Company’s Board of Directors is responsible for the matters stated in section 134(5) of the Companies Act, 2013 (“the Act”) with respect to the preparation of these financial statements that give a true and fair view of the financial position, financial performance including other comprehensive income and cash flows and changes in equity of the Company in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, including the Indian Accounting Standards specified under Section 133 of the Act. This responsibility also includes maintenance of adequate accounting records in accordance with the provision of the Act for safeguarding the assets of the Company and for preventing and detecting frauds and other irregularities; selection and application of appropriate accounting policies; making judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and design, implementation, and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls, that were operating effectively for ensuring the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, relevant to the preparation and presentation of the financial statements that give a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concerned, and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so. Those Board of Directors are also responsible for overseeing the company’s financial reporting process.

Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Ind AS Financial Statements:

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Ind AS financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with SAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with Standards on Auditing, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

• Identify and assess the risks of material misstatements of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

• Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances. Under section 143(3)(i) of the Act, we are also responsible for expressing our opinion on whether the company has adequate internal financial controls system in place and the operating effectiveness of such controls.

• Evaluate the appropriateness of the accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.

• Evaluate the appropriateness of the accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.

• Conclude on the appropriateness of the management’s use of going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.

• Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and the content of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.

From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

Report on Other Legal and Regulatory Requirements:

1. As required by the Companies (Auditor’s Report) Order,2020 (“the Order”) issued by the Central Government of India in terms of sub-section (11) of section 143 of the Companies Act,2013, we give in the Annexure ‘B’ a statement on the matters specified in paragraphs 3 and 4 of the Order, to the extent applicable.

2. 2 As required by section 143(3) of the Act, we report that:

3. (a) We have sought and obtained all the information and explanations, which to the best of our knowledge and belief were necessary for the purposes of our audit.

4. (b) In our opinion, the Company has kept proper books of account as required by law as far as it appears from our examination of those books.

Annexure “B” to the Independent Auditors’ Report

(Referred to in paragraph 2(f) under ‘Report on Other Legal and Regulatory Requirements’ section of our report of even date)

Report on the Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting under Clause (i) of Sub-section 3 of Section 143 of the Companies Act, 2013 (“the Act”).

We have audited the internal financial controls over financial reporting of Amforge Industries Limited (“the Company”) as of 31st March, 2022 in conjunction with our audit of the Ind AS financial statements of the Company for the year ended on that date.

Management’s Responsibility for Internal Financial Controls

The Company’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining internal financial controls based on the internal control over financial reporting criteria established by the Company considering the essential components of internal control stated in the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (“ICAI”). These responsibilities include the design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls that were operating effectively for ensuring the orderly and efficient conduct of its business, including adherence to the Company’s policies, the safeguarding of its assets, the prevention and detection of frauds and errors, the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, and the timely preparation of reliable financial information, as required under the Companies Act, 2013.

Auditors’ Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal financial controls over financial reporting of the Company based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting (the “Guidance Note”) issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India and the Standards on Auditing prescribed under Section 143(10) of the Companies Act, 2013, to the extent applicable to an audit of internal financial controls. Those Standards and the Guidance Note require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether adequate internal financial controls over financial reporting were established and maintained and if such controls operated effectively in all material respects. Our audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the adequacy of the internal financial controls system over financial reporting and their operating effectiveness. Our audit of internal financial controls over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal financial controls over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. The procedures selected depend on the auditors’ judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the Company’s internal financial controls system over financial reporting.

Meaning of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting

A company’s internal financial control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal financial control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorisations of the management and directors of the Company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Inherent Limitations of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting

Because of the inherent limitations of internal financial controls over financial reporting, including the possibility of collusion or improper management override of controls, material misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. Also, projections of any evaluation of the internal financial controls over financial reporting to future periods are subject to the risk that the internal financial control over financial reporting may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Opinion

In our opinion, to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, the Company has, in all material respects, an adequate internal financial controls system over financial reporting and such internal financial controls over financial reporting were operating effectively as at 31st March, 2022, based on the criteria for internal financial controls over financial reporting criteria established by the Company considering the essential components of internal control stated in the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India.

N ote: 19 Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended 31/03/2022

(All amounts are in ` thousands unless otherwise stated)

1. Corporate information

Amforge Industries Limited (“AIL” or “the Company”) is a Public Limited Company domiciled and incorporated in India having its registered office at 1118, Dalamal Towers, 11[th] Floor, Free Press Journal Marg, Nariman Point, Mumbai – 400 021 (Maharashtra). The equity shares of the Company are listed / trading on BSE Limited, Mumbai.

2. Significant Accounting Policies

2.1. Basis of Preparation of financial statements

In accordance with the notification dated 16/02/2015, issued by the Ministry of Corporate Affairs, the Company has adopted Indian Accounting Standards (referred to as “Ind AS”) notified under section 133 of the Companies Act,2013 read together with Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 (as amended)with effect from 01/04/2016.

These financial statements have been prepared and presented under 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 accounting 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.

Fair Value measurement:

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 under current market conditions.

The Company categorizes assets and liabilities measured at fair value into one of three levels depending on the ability to observe inputs employed in their measurement, which are described as follows:

• (a) Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

• (b) Level 2 inputs are inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly, other than quoted prices included within level 1 for the asset or liability.

48

Amforge Industries Limited

Annual Report 2021-22

==> picture [34 x 30] intentionally omitted <==

• (c) Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability reflecting significant modifications to observable related market data or Company’s assumptions about pricing by market participants.

Current / Non-Current Classification:

Any asset or liability is classified as current if it satisfies any of the following conditions:

• i. The asset/liability is expected to be realized/settled in the Company’s normal operating cycle;

• ii. The asset is intended for sale or consumption;

• iii. The asset/liability is held primarily for trading;

• iv. The asset/liability is expected to be realized/settled within twelve months after the reporting period;

• v. The asset is cash or cash equivalent unless it is restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months after the reporting date;

• vi. In the case of a liability, the company does not have an unconditional right to differ settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting date.

All other assets and liabilities are classified as non-current.

For the purpose of current/non-current classification of assets and liabilities, the Company has ascertained its normal operating cycle as twelve months. This is based on the nature of services and the time between the acquisition of assets or inventories for processing and their realization in cash and cash equivalents.

2.3. Non-current assets held for sale:

Non-current assets classified as held for sale are measured at the lower of carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell. Non-current assets are classified as held for sale if their carrying amounts will be recovered through a sale transaction rather than through continuing use. This condition is regarded as met only when the sale is highly probable and the asset is available for immediate sale in its present condition subject to terms that are usual and customary for sales of such assets.

Property, plant and equipment and intangible assets are not depreciated or amortized once classified as held for sale.

2.4. Revenue Recognition:

2.4.1. Sales are recognised when risks and rewards (transfer of custody of goods) are passed to customers and includes all statutory levies except Value Added Tax (VAT) and is net of discounts.

2.4.2. Dividend income is recognised when the right to receive the dividend is established.

2.4.3. Interest income is accrued on a time basis, by reference to the principal outstanding and at the effective interest rates applicable (which is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset to that asset’s net carrying amount on initial recognition).

2.4.4. For non-financial assets, interest income is recognized on a time proportion basis.

2.4.5. Revenue from the sale of scrap is recognized when risks and rewards (transfer of custody of goods) are passed to customers.

2.4.6. Revenue in respect of Liquidated Damages from contractors/ suppliers is recognized when determined as not payable.

2.4.7. Goods and Service Tax (GST) is presented as an expense in the statement of profit and loss. GST duty in respect to the difference between closing and opening stock of excisable goods is included under “Other Expenses”.

2.5. Leases:

Leases are classified as finance leases whenever the terms of the lease transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the lessee. All other leases are classified as operating leases.

Amforge Industries Limited

Annual Report 2021-22

==> picture [33 x 30] intentionally omitted <==

Leasehold lands where the ownership of the land will not be transferred to the Company at the end of the lease period are classified as operating leases.

Upfront operating lease payments are recognized as prepayments and amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Leasehold lands are considered as finance leases where ownership will be transferred to the Company at the end of the lease period. Such leasehold lands are presented under property, plant, and equipment and not depreciated.

2.6. Foreign currencies:

The functional currency of the Company is the Indian Rupee, which represents the currency of the primary economic environment in which it operates.

Transactions in currencies other than the Company’s functional currency (foreign currencies) are recognized at the rates of exchange prevailing at the dates of the transactions. At the end of each reporting period, monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated using the closing exchange rate prevailing on the last day of the reporting period.

Exchange difference arising with respect to long-term foreign currency monetary items is recognized in the statement of profit and loss except for the exchange difference related to long-term foreign currency monetary items those were recognized as at 31/03/2016, in so far as, they relate to the acquisition of depreciable assets, are adjusted against the cost of such assets and depreciate the said adjustment, over the balance life of the asset.

2.7. Borrowing Costs:

Borrowing costs specifically identified to the acquisition or construction of qualifying assets are capitalized as part of such assets. A qualifying asset is one that necessarily takes a substantial period to get ready for the intended use. All other borrowing costs are charged in the statement of profit and loss.

2.8. mployee Benefits:

Employee benefits include provident fund, superannuation fund, gratuity fund, compensated absences, post-employment medical benefits, and resettlement allowances.

Defined contribution plans:

Employee benefits under defined contribution plans comprising of provident fund and superannuation fund are recognized based on the amount of obligation of the Company to contribute to the plan. The same is paid to Provident Fund Trust authorities and to Life Insurance Corporation of India respectively, which are expensed during the year.

Defined benefit plans:

Defined retirement benefit plans comprising gratuity, post-retirement medical benefits, and other longterm retirement benefits, which are recognized based on the present value of defined benefit obligation and are computed using the projected unit credit method, with actuarial valuations being carried out at the end of each annual reporting period. These are accounted for as current employee costs or included in the cost of assets as permitted.

Net interest on the net defined liability is calculated by applying the discount rate at the beginning of the period to the net defined benefit liability or asset and is recognized in the statement of profit and loss except those included in the cost of assets as permitted.

Re-measurement, comprising actuarial gains and losses, the effect of the changes to the asset ceiling (if applicable), and the return on plan assets (excluding net interest as defined above), are recognized in other comprehensive income except those included in the cost of assets as permitted in the period in which they occur and are not subsequently reclassified to profit or loss.

The Company contributes all ascertained liabilities with respect to Gratuity to the MRPL’s Gratuity Fund Trust (MGFT). Other defined benefit schemes are un-funded.

The retirement benefit obligation recognized in the balance sheet represents the actual deficit or surplus in the Company’s defined benefit plans.

The undiscounted amount of short-term employee benefits expected to be paid in exchange for the services rendered by employees are recognized during the year when the employees rendered the service. These benefits include performance incentives and compensated absences, which are expected to occur within twelve months after the end of the period in which the employee renders the related service.

The cost of short-term compensated absences is accounted as under:

• (a) in case of accumulated compensated absences, when employees render the services that increase their entitlement of future compensated absences; and

• (b) in case of non-accumulating compensated absences, when the absences occur.

Long-term employee benefits:

Compensated absences which are not expected to occur within twelve months after the end of the period in which the employee renders the related service are recognised as a liability at the present value of the defined benefit obligation as at the balance sheet date less the fair value of the plan assets out of which the obligations are expected to be settled.

2.9. Taxation:

The income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.

(i) Current tax:

The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from ‘profit before tax’ 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. The Company’s current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.

(ii) 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. 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 that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary differences can be utilized.

Deferred taxes are recognized in respect of temporary differences, which originate during the tax holiday period but reverse after the tax holiday period. For this purpose, reversal of temporary difference is determined using the first in first out method.

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 all or part of the asset to be recovered.

Deferred tax liabilities and assets are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in which the liability is settled or the asset realised, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.

The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Company expects, at the end of the reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.

Deferred tax assets include Minimum Alternative Tax (MAT) paid in accordance with the tax laws in India, which is likely to give future economic benefits in the form of availability of set off against

51

==> picture [33 x 30] intentionally omitted <==

future income tax liability. Accordingly, MAT is recognised as a deferred tax asset in the balance sheet when the asset can be measured reliably and it is probable that the future economic benefit associated with the asset will be realised.

Current and deferred tax for the year:

Current and deferred tax are recognised in the statement of profit or loss, except when they relate to items that are recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case, the current and deferred tax are also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity respectively.

2.10. Property, plant, and equipment (PPE):

Land and buildings held for use in the production or supply of goods or services, or for administrative purposes, are stated in the balance sheet at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses if any. Freehold land is not depreciated.

PPE in the course of construction for production, supply or administrative purposes is carried at cost, less any recognised impairment loss. The cost of an asset comprises its purchase price or its construction cost (net of applicable tax credits) and any cost directly attributable to bringing the asset into the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by the management. It includes professional fees and borrowing costs for qualifying assets capitalised in accordance with the Company’s accounting policy. Such properties are classified into the appropriate categories of PPE when completed and ready for the intended use. Parts of an item of PPE having different useful life and material value as assessed by management and subsequent capital expenditure on Property, Plant, and Equipment are accounted for as separate components.

PPE are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses if any.

Depreciation of PPE commences when the assets are ready for their intended use.

Depreciation is provided on the cost of PPE (other than freehold land and properties under construction) less their residual values over their useful life using the Straight Line Method, over the useful life of components of various Assets as specified in Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013, except in case of certain components of the Plant and Equipment whose useful life are determined based on technical evaluation and the useful life considered under Company’s policy for the employee’s vehicle and furniture scheme.

The estimated useful life, residual values, and depreciation method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimate accounted for on a prospective basis.

Expenditure on overhaul and repairs on account of the planned shutdown, which is of significant value (5% of the value of particular assets) is capitalized as a component of relevant, items of PPE and is depreciated over the period till the next shutdown on a straight-line basis. A catalyst whose life is more than one year is capitalized as property, plant, and equipment and depreciated over the guaranteed useful life as specified by the supplier when the catalyst is put to use.

Insurance spares received along with the plant or equipment and those purchased subsequently for specific machinery and having irregular use are capitalized.

Major capital spares are capitalized as property, plant, and equipment. Depreciation on such spares capitalized as property, plant, and equipment are depreciated over the period starting when it is brought into service and continuing over the shorter of its useful life and the remaining expected useful life of the asset to which it relates and written down value of the spare is charged to the statement of profit and loss as and when replaced.

Depreciation on additions/deletions to PPE during the year is provided for on a pro-rata basis with reference to the date of additions/deletions except for low-value items not exceeding Rs. 5,000/(other than the company purchase scheme for employees) which are fully depreciated at the time of addition.

The estimated useful life of the assets is as follows:

Sr.No.	Particulars	Life(inyears)
1.	Buildings	1-60
2.	Plant and equipment – catalysts	2-10
3.	Plant and equipment – computers	3 – 7
4.	Plant and equipment – continuous process plant not covered under specifc industries(Triple shif)	7-5
5.	Plant and equipment – electrical/ lab/ canteen/ school	10
6.	Plant and equipment – instrumentation items/ DCS/ hospital/ others	15
7.	Plant and equipment – refneryassets	25
8.	Plant and equipment – pipelines/ SPM/ ofshore component/ civil structure	30
9.	Plant and equipment –powerplant	40
10.	Ofce equipment	5
11.	Furniture and fxtures	6-10
12.	Vehicles	4-8

Assets held under finance leases are depreciated over their expected useful life on the same basis as owned assets.

An item of property, plant, and equipment is derecognised upon disposal, replacement, or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset. Any gain or loss arising on the disposal or retirement of an item of property, plant, and equipment is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and is recognised in profit or loss.

2.11. Intangible assets:

2.11.1. Intangible assets acquired separately:

Intangible assets with a finite useful life that are acquired separately are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses. Amortisation is recognised on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful life. The estimated useful life and amortisation method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimate being accounted for on a prospective basis.

Intangible assets with an indefinite useful life that are acquired separately are carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses if any.

2.11.2. De-recognition of intangible assets:

An intangible asset is derecognised on disposal, or when no future economic benefits are expected from use or disposal.

Gains or losses arising from the de-recognition of an intangible asset, are measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset, and are recognised in profit or loss when the asset is derecognised.

2.11.3. Useful life of intangible assets:

The Estimated useful life of the intangible assets is as follows:

Sr.No.	Particulars	Life(inyears)
1	Computer sofware	3-10
2	License and franchise	3

2.12. Impairment of tangible and intangible assets other than goodwill:

The Company reviews the carrying amounts of its intangible assets and Property, plant and equipment (including capital works-in-progress) of a “Cash Generating Unit” (CGU) to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). When it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Company estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.

Recoverable amount is the higher fair value less costs of disposal and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset for which the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted.

If the recoverable amount of an asset (or cash-generating unit) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset (or cash-generating unit) is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised immediately in the statement of profit and loss.

An assessment is made annually as to see if there are any indications that impairment losses recognized earlier may no longer exist or may have come down. The impairment loss is reversed, if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the asset’s recoverable amount since the previous impairment loss was recognized. If it is so, the carrying amount of the asset is increased to the lower of its recoverable amount and the carrying amount that has been determined, net of depreciation, had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset in prior years. After a reversal, the depreciation charge is adjusted in future periods to allocate the asset’s revised carrying amount, less any residual value, on a systematic basis over its remaining useful life.

Reversals of Impairment loss are recognized in the statement of profit and loss.

2.13. Cash Flow Statement:

Cash flows are reported using the indirect method, whereby profit after tax is adjusted for the effects of transactions of a non-cash nature, any deferrals or accruals of past or future operating cash receipts or payments, and items of income or expenses associated with investing or financing cash flows.

The cash flows are segregated into operating, investing, and financing activities.

2.14. Provisions, Contingent Liabilities, and Contingent Assets:

Provisions are recognised when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that the Company will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.

The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. When a provision is measured using the cash flows estimated to settle the present obligation, its carrying amount is the present value of those cash flows (when the effect of the time value of money is material).

Contingent assets are disclosed in the financial statements by way of notes to accounts when an inflow of economic benefits is probable.

Contingent liabilities are disclosed in the Financial Statements by way of notes to accounts, unless possibility of an outflow of resources embodying economic benefit is remote.

2.15. Financial instruments:

Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instruments. Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities (other than financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss) are added to or deducted from the fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition.

Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are recognised immediately in profit or loss.

54

Amforge Industries Limited

Annual Report 2021-22

==> picture [34 x 30] intentionally omitted <==

2.16. Financial assets:

All recognised financial assets are subsequently measured in their entirety at either amortised cost or fair value, depending on the classification of the financial assets.

(i) Cash and cash equivalents:

The Company considers all highly liquid financial instruments, which are readily convertible into known amounts of cash that are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value and having original maturities of three months or less from the date of purchase, to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents consist of balances with banks, which are unrestricted for withdrawal and usage.

(ii) Financial assets at amortized cost:

Financial assets are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method if these financial assets are held within a business whose objective is to hold these assets in order to collect contractual cash flows and the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

(iii) Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income:

Financial assets are measured at fair value through other comprehensive income if these financial assets are held within a business whose objective is achieved by both selling financial assets and collecting contractual cash flows, the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

(iv) Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss:

Financial assets are measured at fair value through profit or loss unless it is measured at amortized cost or at fair value through other comprehensive income.

(v) Impairment of financial assets:

The Company assesses at each balance sheet date whether a financial asset or a group of financial assets is impaired. Ind AS 109 requires expected credit losses to be measured through a loss allowance. The Company recognizes lifetime expected losses for trade receivables that do not constitute a financing transaction. For all other financial assets, expected credit losses are measured at an amount equal to 12-month expected credit losses or at an amount equal to lifetime expected losses, if the credit risk on the financial asset has increased significantly since initial recognition.

(vi) De-recognition of financial assets:

The Company derecognizes a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flow from the asset expire, or when it transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the asset to another party.

On de-recognition of a financial asset in its entirety, the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received and receivable is recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

2.17. Financial liabilities and equity instruments:

2.17.1 Equity instruments:

An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of an entity after deducting all of its liabilities.

Equity instruments issued by the Company are recognised at the proceeds received. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issuance of new ordinary equity shares are recognised as a deduction from equity, net of tax effects.

55

Amforge Industries Limited

Annual Report 2021-22

==> picture [33 x 30] intentionally omitted <==

2.17.2 Financial liabilities:

a) Financial Guarantee:

When the Company receives a financial guarantee from its holding company, initially it measures guarantee fees at the fair value. The Company records the initial fair value of fees for financial guarantee received as “Deemed Equity” from the holding company with a corresponding asset recorded as prepaid guarantee charges. Such deemed equity is presented under the equity in the balance sheet. Prepaid guarantee charges are recognized in the statement of profit and loss over the period of the financial guarantee received.

b) Financial liabilities subsequently measured at amortized cost:

Financial liabilities are measured at amortized cost at the end of subsequent accounting periods. The carrying amounts of financial liabilities that are subsequently measured at amortized costs are determined based on the effective interest method.

Interest expense that is not capitalized as part of the costs of an asset is included in the ‘Finance costs’ line item.

c) De-recognition of financial liabilities:

The Company derecognizes financial liabilities when, and only when, the Company’s obligations are discharged, cancelled, or have expired.

The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability derecognized and the consideration paid and payable is recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

2.18. Insurance Claims:

In case of total loss of asset, on intimation to the insurer, either the carrying cost of the asset or insurance value (subject to deductible excess) whichever is lower is treated as claims recoverable from the insurance company. In case an insurance claim is less than the carrying cost of the asset, the difference is charged to the statement of profit and loss.

In case of partial or other losses, expenditure incurred / payments made to put such assets back into use, to meet the third party, or other liabilities (less deductible excess) if any, are accounted for as claims receivable from the insurance company.

Insurance Policy deductible excess are expensed in the year in which corresponding expenditure is incurred.

As and when claims are finally received from the insurance company, the difference, if any, between the claim receivable from the insurance company and claims received is adjusted to the statement of profit and loss.

All other claims and provisions are booked on the merits of each case.

3. Critical Accounting Judgments, Assumptions, and Key Sources of Estimation Uncertainty:

Inherent in the application of many of the accounting policies used in preparing the financial statements is the need for management to make judgments, estimates, and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses. Actual outcomes could differ from the estimates and assumptions used.

Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimates are revised and future periods are affected.

A key source of judgments, assumptions, and estimation uncertainty in the preparation of the financial statements, which may cause a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year, are in respect of the useful life of property, plant, and equipment, employee benefit obligations, provision for income tax and measurement of deferred tax assets.

56

3.1. Critical judgments in applying accounting policies:

The following are the critical judgments, apart from those involving estimations (Refer to note 4.2), that the Management has made in the process of applying the Company’s accounting policies and that have a significant effect on the amounts recognized in the Financial Statements.

(a) Determination of functional currency:

The Currency of the primary economic environment in which the Company operates (“the functional currency”) is Indian Rupee (Rs.) in which the company primarily generates and expends cash. Accordingly, the management has assessed its functional currency to be Indian Rupee (Rs).

3.2. Assumptions and key sources of estimation uncertainty:

Information about estimates and assumptions that have a significant effect on the recognition and measurement of assets, liabilities, income, and expenses is provided below. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

a) Useful life of property, plant, and equipment and intangible assets:

Management reviews its estimate of the useful life of PPE and intangible assets at each reporting date, based on the future economic benefits expected to be consumed from the assets.

b) Defined benefit obligation (DBO):

Impact of the DBO amount Management’s estimate of the DBO is based on a number of critical underlying assumptions such as standard rates of inflation, medical cost trends, mortality, discount rate, and anticipation of future salary increases. Variation in these assumptions may significantly and the annual defined benefit expenses.

c) Provision for income tax:

Significant judgments are involved in determining the provision for income taxes, including the amount expected to be paid/ recovered for uncertain tax positions.

d) Recognition of deferred tax assets:

The extent to which deferred tax assets can be recognized is based on an assessment of the probability of the Company’s future taxable income against which the deferred tax assets can be utilized. In addition, significant judgment is required in assessing the impact of any legal or economic limits or uncertainties.
